Passionate Penalties and Jealous Flames
Startled by the unfamiliar intrusion pushing into my mouth, I snapped my eyes open and looked at Ma Yeonseo.
“Mmgh!”
Right then, she twisted her head further, pressing her face close and boldly thrusting her tongue in.
“Hmph… slurp… schluuurp…!”
She gripped my hair tightly and began devouring my lips with fervent passion.
“Mmph… mmphh…!”
Caught off guard by the intense stimulation I'd never experienced before, I hurriedly tapped her to signal her, panicking.
I was starting to run out of air.
“Pha…!”
Finally, she pulled her lips away, her eyes gleaming with heavy arousal as she gazed at me.
“…Haa… haa…”
Her appearance, saliva trailing from the corner of her mouth as she panted roughly, was more erotic than anything else.
“You…”
Reeling from the shock, I stared at her blankly like an idiot.
Ma Yeonseo, watching me like that, curled the corner of her mouth and whispered softly.
“Two more left.”
Right. This was the penalty for getting the question wrong.
“Ah… two more…”
I swallowed hard and reflexively replied, staring at her face.
Gazing at her subtly disheveled look stirred something bubbling deep in my chest.
She suddenly flashed a pleased smile, parting her plump lips to extend her long tongue.
It wriggled like the tail of some seductive creature shaking enticingly.
Enchanted, I unwittingly opened my mouth and tentatively stuck out the tip of my tongue to meet hers.
“Hahp…!”
And we lunged at each other simultaneously.
“Slurp… smooch… schluuuurp…”
Ma Yeonseo thrust her long tongue wildly, as if determined to leave traces everywhere.
Her excitement fully transmitted to me, I lost my reason and boldly placed my hand on her slim waist.
Smooth. Smooth. Each brush of my hand made her body twitch visibly.
“Schluuurp… slurp… smooch…!”
Even as she toyed with my mouth, she gently stroked my hair with honey-dripping tenderness.
I slid my hand down and firmly gripped her voluptuous butt over her clothes.
“Hngh…”
A small moan escaped her as she was immersed in the kiss.
That lewd sound ignited the last remnants of my rationality.
“Smooch, schluuuurp…!”
Already deeply aroused—as she well knew—I slipped my other hand under her top and caressed her bare lower back.
“…!”
She reacted sensitively, her body twitching repeatedly.
“……”
After kneading her thoroughly for a while, I pulled my face away and looked at her thoroughly disheveled state.
“…Haa… haa…”
Ma Yeonseo, already half-melted and dazed, pleaded in a voice so sweetly endearing it felt unfamiliar.
“…Do it…”
I decided I wouldn't hold back any longer.
***
We stuck together like glue all weekend long.
From the living room to her bedroom. The kitchen. The bathroom. Even the entryway. We were so absorbed in each other that we forgot to eat.
Like a pair of beasts that had become one.
During that weekend frenzy, I learned a few new things about Ma Yeonseo.
The most important being her weakness.
Contrary to her provocative attitude, she was surprisingly sensitive.
Like a trash mob with high HP but zero defense and full of weak spots.
And since she loved it rough, it only amplified the feeling.
“…It's all your fault.”
Well, she blamed it on me.
Anyway, after that, we fell even deeper for each other, becoming far more intimate than before.
As proof…
Ma Yeonseo's behavior changed noticeably.
“Kang Yuchan writes like total crap!” “It's 'cause you didn't write it properly.”
It was a day when the class was doing group work.
Since Ma Yeonseo and I were seated apart, I had no choice but to team up with other kids.
During that, I had a short chat with a girl in my group…
“For real? You write well normally?” “Can't believe it. Back in the day, I was the Gang Seokbong of our neighborhood. Everyone thought my mom was a noodle maker.” “Liar!” “Wanna see?”
We finished class in a fun atmosphere.
Then.
“We need to talk.” “Huh? Suddenly?” “Come with me.”
Ma Yeonseo showed up at my seat with a stiff expression and dragged me behind the building.
“What's wrong?”
She gave me a chilling look and casually brought it up.
“Why'd you smile at some other girl like that?” “…Huh?” “You were messing around with her during class. Think I didn't see?”
Caught off guard by the unexpected callout, I froze, unable to respond.
She warned me sternly, dead serious.
“Don't smile at other girls anymore. It pisses me off.”
Only then did I realize she was jealous inside.
'She dragged me all the way here over that?'
She suddenly seemed utterly adorable.
“Got it. I'll be careful from now on.”
I didn't think much of it and chuckled, accepting her feelings.
She was still super serious, though.
“…I'm serious.” “Me too. I was wondering what was up… You brought me here for that?” “……” “Ugh, you're too cute… C'mere.”
I pulled her into my arms and hugged her tight, stroking her gently to reassure her.
“You know you're the only one for me, right?” “…Yeah…” “So don't stress over stuff like that. Okay?” “……” “Not gonna answer, huh… I love you.” “…Me too.”
I wrapped it up smoothly, seeing it as a natural hiccup from our deepening relationship.
The kind any couple goes through once or twice.
I thought we were just like any normal couple.
…Until that incident.
“What's that?” “Your birthday present.”
It was a day before summer break.
I'd stopped by her house for our usual 'date,' and out of nowhere, she handed me a birthday gift.
She'd prepared it specially since my birthday coincided with summer break.
“A present?! You didn't have to…” “Figured I might not be able to celebrate properly this time.”
I took the small box wrapped in luxurious packaging, unable to hold back my grin.
Getting a birthday gift was great, but from my girlfriend who'd thought of it herself? I was thrilled.
“Open it already.” “Can I look now?” “Yeah.”
Sitting across from her at the living room table, I calmed my excitement and unwrapped it.
And then.
“……?!”
I gaped at the revealed gift.
The small box contained the latest model smartphone.
From a major corporation famous for top-tier awakener gear.
“What do you think? I picked the same color as mine.”
Ma Yeonseo asked casually, as if it were nothing.
Stunned by the extravagance, I blinked and hesitantly asked back.
“Th-this… It's really a phone?” “Yeah. You said your old one was lagging.” “W-well, yeah, but…”
She'd remembered a casual complaint I'd made in passing.
I should have been touched, but honestly, the awkwardness outweighed the joy.
In my mind, even lovers had limits to gifts.
This blew right past them, leaving me clueless on how to react.
'Should I be happy about this?'
But it felt too burdensome to just accept gleefully.
“Take it out and look.”
Oblivious to my turmoil, she urged me to check the phone.
'This isn't right.'
Even knowing she was a rich girl, this seemed excessive.
At least for me.
“Um… Yeonseo.” “Yeah?” “I appreciate the thought, but… this is too much for me to accept.” “…Too much?”
Ma Yeonseo tilted her head, looking genuinely puzzled.
I never imagined feeling the class gap in a place like this.
“This must cost a ton, right? Over a million won at least… I really appreciate you thinking of me, but accepting it feels…” “…Burdening?”
I nodded solemnly.
“I see.”
Thankfully, she seemed to understand, responding calmly…
“……”
She stared blankly at the box, lost in thought for a moment.
“So.”
Smooth. She met my eyes and whispered lowly once more.
“You can't accept this?” “…Yeah…” “Then I guess I'll throw it away.” “……What?”
With a blank face, Ma Yeonseo abruptly stood up.
She grabbed the box and strode toward the balcony like she was making a show of it.
“H-hey, Yeonseo? Throw it away? What do you…”
Panicking, I called after her, but.
Slide. She went out to the balcony without stopping.
She was seriously going to toss it.
“W-wait a sec!”
I rushed after her.
By then, she was in position to chuck the whole box.
Shocked, I grabbed her desperately, trying to stop her.
“Hey! What the hell are you doing?!” “You said it was a burden.” “That doesn't mean throw it out?!” “Gotta. Since it burdened you.”
Her tone was flat and emotionless, but thorns hid beneath.
She was deeply hurt that I rejected her carefully prepared gift.
'Throwing it away just like that?!'
There were limits to impulsive reactions.
Regaining my wits, I yelled at her as she tried to hurl the box.
“I-I'll take it! I'll take it, so stop!” “No need to force it.”
She even pretended to be considerate.
She was thoroughly sulking.
“N-no! I think I was wrong! I really want it now!” “……” “C'mon, be good? Hand it over quick. It's dangerous out here…!” “…You'll really take it?” “I want it bad! Gotta open it, register your number, yeah? And set our pic as wallpaper!”
Only then did she soften, relaxing slightly.
'Now!'
Seizing the moment, I scooped her up, carried her inside, and securely closed the balcony door.
'Phew…'
I felt utterly drained in that instant.
“Here.”
Unaware or not of my exhaustion, Ma Yeonseo brazenly offered the phone box with the world's most innocent face.
I sighed and quietly accepted the gift.
“…Thanks. I'll cherish it for a long time.” “That's it?” “…I love you.” “Me too.”
Finally satisfied, she dove into my arms.
'Sigh.'
Stroking her as she nestled against me, I thought to myself.
I had a feeling incidents like this would happen a lot from now on.
