It was past midnight when Ashley and Koi headed to their room after the wedding reception at the mansion. To be precise, the party was still going on, but it was more accurate to say that they were the only ones who had left.
“Going for the first night?”
“Keep it down, keep it down!”
“Lucky you, lucky you!”
Amidst the jeers and cheers, Ashley went up the stairs with Koi. The two, who were holding hands and walking side by side, stopped on the landing, and Ashley said something to Koi. Soon after, Ashley picked Koi up in his arms, and the friends watching from downstairs shouted.
“Woo! Ash the Monster!”
“Ten kids!”
“Ash, how did you hold back all day today!”
Waving his fist in the air, Ashley ignored his friends who were shouting and bounded up the stairs two or three at a time, disappearing in an instant. After the two had completely disappeared, the remaining friends stopped shouting and let out happy sighs here and there.
“That was long, really.”
“Ten years? Ash is really something, only liking Koi all that time.”
“Koi too. To think that he worked so hard to come here to see Ash.”
“Okay, let’s all toast.”
At Bill’s suggestion, champagne glasses were raised here and there.
“For Ash and Koi!”
“For the baby!”
“May they be happy!”
After reciting blessings here and there, they brought the champagne to their lips. Then one guy threw off his shirt and shouted.
“Okay, now the party starts!”
* * *
Creak, the door opened with a small sound. Soon after, Ashley turned on the wall switch, and bright light flooded in. Koi, who had been holding Ashley’s neck tightly, carefully turned his head.
The spacious interior seemed to be twice the size of the room they had used in the condo last time. In the connected living room, there was a simple sofa with a sophisticated design, and under the huge TV that took up one wall, there was a fireplace. Next, what caught his eye was the enormously large bed. Koi swallowed hard without realizing it, and Ashley laughed out loud.
“What’s wrong? Don’t you like it?”
“Ah, no, it’s not that.”
Koi hurriedly shook his head and mumbled with a flushed face.
“It’s just… it’s too big.”
“I had it custom-made.”
Considering Ashley’s height, it might be natural…
Ashley put Koi down, who was vaguely thinking. Ashley hugged Koi, who staggered and quickly regained his balance, as if it were natural.
“Because it’s a bed we’ll be using together from now on.”
His low voice was full of heat. Thinking that Ashley had waited as much as he had, Koi’s heart pounded fiercely. Koi closed his eyes as he saw Ashley’s face approaching. As expected, when their lips met, Koi’s waist trembled slightly. They had shared countless kisses, but this kiss was different from all the others.
We’re really married.
Thinking that, his whole body trembled. Koi, whose knees buckled and almost made him collapse, quickly grabbed Ashley’s arm that was holding his waist to avoid the crisis.
“Koi.”
Ashley, who bit his lower lip and released it, called his name. When he looked up with hazy vision, he saw a softly smiling face. Ashley whispered, moving kisses to Koi’s lips and cheeks.
“We’re finally alone.”
Koi’s heart sank, and he stopped breathing. His pounding heart felt like it would break through his ribs.
“Did you see what’s on the bed?”
Ashley continued to kiss Koi’s temples and ears as he asked. Koi, who slyly turned his gaze and looked at the bed, was startled.
Wedding dress.
His pupils shook wildly as he saw the white wedding dress spread out on the white, smooth sheet. Ashley, who playfully bit Koi’s trembling ear without hurting him, muttered in a low voice.
“Remember what I promised?”
Of course. Even if he had forgotten, he couldn’t help but remember the moment he was asked the question. Koi swallowed hard and nodded. His eyes still couldn’t leave the bed.
Ashley, who had playfully licked his ear, let go of Koi. Ashley, looking down at Koi who staggered back, stretched out one arm. As if telling him to hurry up. Koi, unable to resist any longer, reluctantly moved his body as he was told.
The dress spread out on the bed was so thin and beautiful, as if the fabric was woven directly from thin lace and mesh. Koi carefully held the dress in both arms and turned around, fearing that the fabric might tear. He was about to go into the dressing room as it was.
“Where are you going?”
Ashley suddenly asked. Koi, who stopped awkwardly, turned around, and Ashley was frowning deeply. Why is he like that? Koi answered, feeling bewildered.
“I’m going to change…”
“Why?”
“Why, you ask…”
“Koi.”
Ashley, to Koi who was still bewildered, put on an extremely affectionate voice and said.
“You have to change here.”
“H-here?”
Koi was startled and let out a scream-like shout. Surprised by his own high voice, he hurriedly closed his mouth and desperately rolled his eyes, struggling to lower his voice and open his mouth.
“W-what are you saying? You’re telling me to change here, why.”
Until now, Koi had worn all kinds of clothes that Ashley had told him to wear, but each time he went to the dressing room or somewhere else to change and came out. But suddenly, what is this? Ashley sighed as he saw Koi stammering in embarrassment.
“That was before we were married.”
Huh?
Ashley smiled wryly at Koi, who was blinking his eyes, and asked.
“We’re married now, aren’t we?”
“Huh? Uh…”
As Koi nodded absentmindedly, Ashley continued with a serious face.
“So there’s no need to change clothes somewhere else, is there?”
“Uh…”
Is that so?
Listening to Ashley’s words, it sounded quite plausible. After all, a couple is supposed to share everything. Ashley, having visually confirmed that Koi was starting to come around, sat on the chair and crossed his legs as if to show off.
“Okay, Koi.”
Ashley, who lightly spread his arms, smiled. He couldn’t resist any longer. Koi nodded with a flushed face, saying “Uh-huh.”
He was still wearing the tuxedo he had worn at the wedding reception. They had tailored two tuxedos each for the wedding and reception, and Koi quite liked this second tuxedo. He, who had never imagined that he would take it off in front of Ashley, took off his jacket first with trembling hands. While unbuttoning the vest and taking off the clothes he had worn one by one, Ashley only stroked his lips with his second finger, silently watching Koi.
Haa…
A faint sigh flowed out between his fingers. Finally, Koi had taken off everything, leaving only his underwear and socks. Koi, unable to meet Ashley’s gaze that was silently looking at him, turned his body and grabbed the dress placed on the bed.
As he bent his upper body, Ashley slowly moved his gaze from his shapely buttocks and the thighs that gracefully curved below them to his long calves, narrowing his eyes. He wanted to take his time and savor it fully, but there was no time to spare. This was because Koi, unable to bear the embarrassment, was trying to put on the dress in a hurry. Ashley turned his gaze back up and opened his mouth.
“Koi.”
“Uh, uh?”
Koi, who was about to put the dress over his head, was startled and turned his head. Ashley continued with a relaxed smile.
“You have to put on the wedding garter first.”
“Huh?”
Only then did Koi realize the identity of the garter that was placed on the dress. It was a wedding garter. His face turned as red as if it would explode as he held the elegant yet obscene garter, which was accented with a blue ribbon on white lace, in his hand.
“Take off your socks too.”
“U-uh-huh.”
He can’t turn back now. Koi hurriedly threw off his socks and instead put on the wedding shoes that were placed there. Ashley was silently watching him as he bent down and pulled the garter from his toes to his thighs. If Koi had hesitated there, he would have been putting on the dress the next day. But Koi was so embarrassed that he desperately put on the dress as quickly as he could.
It would be nice to just wear the garter belt.
Ashley thought as he looked at Koi, who had barely managed to put on the dress. Let’s do that next time. Don’t make him wear underwear, just make him wear high heels and a garter belt.
When he could no longer bear it, Koi stood facing him. The wedding dress was specially ordered by Ashley. The long dress had many layers of fabric, but Koi’s legs were clearly visible through the thin lace fabric.
What do I do with the zipper on the back?
He was about to turn his hand back and try to lift it up when Ashley suddenly stood up. As Koi, who had paused, looked at him, he saw him walking straight towards him.
One step, another step.
Ashley, who had come close, smiled brightly. Koi also smiled back, but suddenly Ashley bent down, grabbed the hem of Koi’s dress, and came inside the skirt.
