Chapter 40

I pushed my hand off the bed, and my fingers were finally freed. Ah, a silvery thread came with my fingertips.

What to do.

While I looked at the hanging thread, Tess turned to his side.

“Gasp.”

Thanks to that, I was held in Tess’s arms.

Before I could grasp the situation, his arms wrapped around my waist. Why is his arm’s strength so strong when he is sleeping? It was difficult to escape if I did not give strength.

“Tessvalun, hey!”

“Warm…….”

I protested, but the sleep talk made me speechless again.

“Wa, rm…….”

I paused when I felt Tess’s cold body through the covers.

The transparent skin that seemed to break at any moment. Bhe red but slightly dry lips that were about to crack. And the dark shade under his eyes caught me. It seems like a lot has changed, but it was clear that my childhood friend was still very fragile.

“Whew.”

I gave up waking Tess and decided to stay like this for a while, but the position makes me very uncomfortable. Facing Tess face to face. Tess’s arms were so strong as he hugged my back and waist, so I couldn’t pull my body back.

“Te, uh.”

When I tried to open my mouth, my lips bump into his slightly. Damn. My nose is already slightly crushed not knowing if it was towards Tess’ nose and cheeks.

With a grunt, I managed to stretch out one arm that was trapped. Good!

“Ah.”

I thought my body was freeing up a little, but the gap disappeared in an instant.

“Ah, Tess. Uh.”

My face was pulled up, and it brushed against Tess’s cheek, completely hugging him. I felt one of my chest crushed in Tess’s arms. My chest felt naked.

Here, Tess hugged me tighter, and one of his hands brushed under my arms and came forward.

Tessvalun Neussville.

You and I first met when we were six years old. At that time, I was an adult, but you were a child. Maybe that’s why, until now, I had a strong perception that he was still a kid.

When I met you again, you became a full-fledged adult.

Now, the large hand that reached between my arms and grabbed my flesh was proof of that.

My eyebrows quivered. I tried to free myself from his grip, but I couldn’t without waking him up. I tried to free myself from his large hand, but was stopped by the heat rising from the gripped area.

Rather, I hoped that this sensation would last.

“Uht.”

A moaning leaked out.

It’s the right thing to shake him off immediately. But since Tess is sleeping right now, wouldn’t it be okay to stay like this for a while? This strange and subtle feeling is so addictive that I wanted to continue to feel it.

“Ah.”

My upper body felt vivid in his touch. Even the leg that wasn’t mine dug between my thighs.

I tried to straighten my posture, but rather his strong legs went deeper and reached the innermost part. It felt like my dress was digging into me.

“Uhh.”

I squeezed Tess’s shirt.

His hot breath came to me. It felt strange as if our lips were closely touching each other.

“Ah.”

Unknowingly, Tess’s legs moved and my clothes rubbed against the inside of my thighs. Sometimes it even touched the underwear that covered the secret place. The soft fabric tickled my flesh and I could feel the heat circulating through my whole body and my eyebrows quivering.

“Tess!”

In an instant, the person who was sleeping woke up after I called out his name.

“Euseniel…… ?”

The hoarse voice scratched my eardrum.

“Tessvalun!”

Taking advantage of it, I pushed Tess away, and Tess’ hand that was holding me loosened. I was obviously free, but my chest was hot as if it had been marked.

“Euseniel…….”

He opened his eyes for a moment and asked in a slightly rough voice.

“Euseniel?”

“Yes, it is me.”

I wanted to ask if he was sleeping, but Tess looked really surprised and a bit sick, so I replied calmly.

“It’s Euseniel…….”

He raised his upper body abruptly and leaned his head weakly on my shoulder. My heart ached, so I patted him on the back.

“I miss you.”

You can’t speak up your mind so directly like this. Because I won’t have anywhere to run.

“I’m here to see you now. Shh, it’s okay.”

If he had changed drastically, I would have been able to pull him off me. But my old friend still had a soft side that I knew well, so I couldn’t push him away.

I was about to get out of bed, wondering if I could share the meming fruit I have brought for Tess, as I thought he might not have eaten.

“Euseniel, are you going?”

Then Tess cried anxiously and quickly hugged my waist. I turned my head to the side to tell him no, but I bumped into Tess’ face, who was facing me instead.

Ah.

The lips that would slightly graze together came in very close. It seemed that I opened my lips slightly without even realizing it.

I felt a hand wrapped around my waist and my lip bitten. There was a slight sucking sensation, but nothing came into my mouth.

The lips, which had been carefully sucked as if they would be crushed, soon were let go. And a red tongue came out and came near as if trying to clean it up.

It was obviously rude, I should have been angry, but I couldn’t.

“Euseniel.”

My lips were bitten together again at the sound of my name being called. This time something got inside and it dug under my tongue.

“Uung.”

I had to push him away, but the drowsy scent grabbed me like there was a firm arm that was holding me back.

Even when I was young, I couldn’t always put a rational standard on Tess. And it was the same when I grew up. I thought sometimes If people were to stab me in a vulnerable spot, one would be my family and the other would be Tess.

The saliva that was passed over was sweet and I swallowed it continuously. His hand, wrapped around my waist, slowly rubbed my back and came up. Even though the sound of wet saliva stung my ears, I forgot to push him away, drunk with the sweetness he gave me.

Finally, our lips spread apart. Tess’s red tongue licked the loose thread.

“I missed you, Euseniel.”

Tess rubbed his nose against my temple as I pondered whether I should be angry or not.

“I really missed you, my heartless Euseniel.”

I was inclined to be angry, but I was speechless because Tess rarely rebuked me.

“Will Euseniel come only when I’m dying from illness?”

“What are you talking about!”

I pushed Tess away. Seeing the man who seemed to be hurt, I unknowingly covered my face.

“I’ve been a little busy. I’ll come sooner next time.”

“Yes…….”

Our lips met again, but this time I couldn’t push him away.
