Episode 59
There were only Orion and I in the dorm. It was my first time. In this time when I came back, I was left alone in the dorm with Orion, who showed affection towards me.
It didn’t feel uncomfortable until just a month ago. Even when we were alone in the dorm while filming the reality show, and even when he indifferently handed me something, I just thought about feeling comfortable and trying to get used to it.
‘I guess that’s why it’s a little uncomfortable… … .’
After we were all ready for sleep, we sat on the sofa in the living room and watched TV. I couldn’t easily say that I would enter the room first, so I just glanced at Orion, who was indifferently fixating his eyes on the TV, and was observing his thoughts.
I spent tens of minutes restlessly shaking my body on the sofa. Just as I was making up my mind to get up and go into the dorm, I heard Orion’s voice.
“brother.”
The eyes that were looking at the TV were suddenly focused on me. Seeing Orion lowering his head and looking at me, I flopped down on the sofa that was half-up and settled down properly. I raised my head and looked at Orion. Orion, who seemed to have me in her eyes, gently folded the corners of her eyes and let her lusty expression flow.
“… why?”
The air around me felt heavy due to the eyes that were embracing me all at the end of the gaze. She felt tense, her mouth went dry, and her throat felt like it was on fire. She couldn’t avoid that gaze and just faced it.
“Are you uncomfortable?”
Orion looked at me and asked in his characteristic low voice. Maybe it was because he opened his mouth after a long silence, but his voice sounded even sexier. Even more so was the sight of Orion looking at me with a seductive air.
“… no.”
He couldn’t avoid Orion’s gaze and gave a slightly slow answer. My pupils were shaking violently, and the back of my neck felt tingly from raising my head to face Orion. Perhaps because he answered in a slightly cracked voice, Orion had a faint smile on his face as soon as he heard what I said. He gently folded the corners of his eyes.
“Then why are you so restless?”
Orion, who spoke softly as if indifferent, reached out his hand and brushed my hair. Orion felt a little feverish because I was at the end of his gaze. That gaze felt so hot, and the area where his hand brushed my hair felt like it was going to burn.
It felt like heat was rising at the back of my neck. Perhaps after a while, your cheeks will also show a slight blush.
“Nothing.”
He shook his head gently and denied Orion’s question. It was true that she felt uncomfortable, but how could she answer that directly? He just gently avoided Orion’s gaze and lowered his head a little.
‘In times like this, being short helps a little.’
I felt a little relieved. What was now visible in front of me was Orion’s neck. Orion’s neckline and hollow collarbone, wearing deep-cut pajamas, caught my eye.
– gulp.
The neck was trembling. For some reason, just looking at Orion’s neckline and collarbone made me nervous, so I bit his lower lip without realizing that the sound of his swallowing was loud. Orion, who was looking at me like this, started laughing out loud.
“Hahaha, you’re really cute.”
My upper body was shaking with laughter, and I was slightly embarrassed by that sight. I was just uncomfortable with this strange atmosphere, but I didn’t know why I was reacting that way, and I felt resentful of the situation just a moment ago.
“Do not laugh.”
I frowned slightly and raised my head to look at Orion. Orion, who was smiling with a curved line on her lips, looked down at me and placed the hand that had been stroking her hair behind her neck. Her pupils wavered as she saw something sparkling in the corner of her eyes.
‘Is he really crying?’
Without even thinking about hiding his surprised expression, he looked at the tears welling up in his eyes and stretched out his hand towards Orion. He gently swept his fingers under her eyes and carefully wiped away the accumulated tears.
“Are you trying to tempt me now?”
Orion looked at me with eyes that seemed a little dangerous, and the words he opened his mouth reminded me of an animal looking at its prey. He slowly lowered his arm, holding my hand that was touching his eyes.
“… … .”
I couldn’t say or do anything at that sight. All she could do was keep her mouth shut and her lips tremble. Orion looked at me and opened her mouth.
“Hmm, you’re not denying it?”
Just as an animal purrs when it is happy, the sound coming out of Orion’s mouth seemed to indicate his current mood. He just gave me a gradually more serious gaze.
“I’ve never tempted you.”
It felt like his gaze was strangling me. Everywhere my eyes landed, something hardened and I flinched. Maybe that’s why I wanted to show that nothing was wrong. He answered Orion indifferently or calmly.
“Then this… … .”
Before I could even finish speaking, I was just helplessly dragged by the sight of Orion pulling me into his arms, giving strength to the arm that was holding the back of my neck. Surprised to see himself in his arms in a daze, he raised his arms and pushed them strongly toward Orion.
“Move.”
I felt uncomfortable and anxious. I’m afraid I’ll end up truly liking him. So, he spoke strongly to Orion in an even more bitter voice.
“I am tempting you.”
Instead, he put more force on the hand that was grabbing me by the back of the neck and did not let go. His voice, which I found attractive, lingered in my ears. I gradually began to be shaken by his voice, which literally seduced me.
“… “Let go.”
I was a little worried, just a little bit. Because Orion was acting like this towards me, I felt tickled and my body was shaking. Still, I took her heart and left an answer.
“Are you uncomfortable?”
I looked at Orion as I felt my arm, which was giving me strength, gradually relax. As she watched him carefully stroking the back of his neck, a thought crossed her mind that she should avoid him even now.
“Yeah, it was uncomfortable.”
In order to escape the current situation, he slightly contorted his face and gave off an aura as if he was not in a good mood. As soon as she felt his actions pause for a moment, she answered right away.
“… sorry.”
He turned his gaze that had been fixed on me until now and spoke quietly. It looked a bit pathetic and lonely. She couldn’t help but let out a deep sigh and opened her mouth.
“… Let’s go to sleep. “You said you have a schedule in 5 hours, so you should get some sleep.”
It was the best choice I could think of right now. It is the only way to escape from the current situation, and it is a definite help in Orion’s rest and calming down. The sorrowful expression he had upon my words disappeared, and Orion showed playful eyes and raised the corners of his mouth.
“Then, shall we go to sleep?”
It was clear what I wanted. It was the only way to avoid the situation and the best choice, but for some reason, I couldn’t easily answer Orion’s question. He kept his mouth shut due to an ominous premonition and an intuition that he should not accept it.
“brother?”
I felt like I had no choice when I heard Orion’s voice calling me again, so I just shook my head without saying anything. As soon as he saw my answer, the faint smile on his lips suddenly turned into a bright smile.
“Go to sleep.”
I got up from my seat in a dazed state when I saw Orion standing up first and reaching out for me. There was no way he would agree so easily, but I was worried for no reason about what he was thinking.
‘What are you thinking…? … .’
I frowned and looked up at Orion. Orion, who was holding my hand, began to walk without letting go of her hand. She slowly made her way out of the living room, and when she passed Orion’s room, she opened her mouth.
“Why aren’t you going in?”
With a nuance full of puzzlement, he asked while looking at Orion’s visit, which he had already passed by. When Orion reached my door without even stopping, he opened his mouth.
“I’m going to sleep here today too.”
Orion spoke to me with a smile, as if nothing had happened, as if he was telling a trivial story, and despite his tone of voice, he seemed to be in a really good mood.
“suddenly?”
I asked, looking at Orion’s face in a dazed mood and incomprehensible behavior. Why does he casually say that he will sleep here with me, leaving his perfectly clean room behind? I couldn’t tell what he was thinking when he spoke to me.
‘What are you thinking… … .’
I thought carefully to find out Orion’s true intentions. Because I didn’t think he would act like this for no reason.
“I just want to sleep here.”
It was Orion who opened my door as if nothing had happened. I looked at Seo-yoon’s bed, which was closest to the door, and let go of the hand that was holding me. And then he was slowly walking towards the bed.
“Do not sleep?”
I was surprised to see Orion sitting on Seoyun’s bed and asking me a question, and I opened my mouth with a blank expression.
“I will sleep.”
I walked a little quickly to my bed, settled down, and immediately responded as if nothing had happened. I lay down and pulled the blanket up to my neck. Then he raised his arm and covered his eyes.
“good night.”
Without really doing anything, Orion got up and turned off the lights in the room. Once again, I heard Seoyun pretending to lie down on his bed, and I quickly pretended to sleep.
Only when the sound of steady breathing filled the room did I lower my arm that was covering my eyes and turn my head. I closed my eyes and let out a short sigh as I looked at Orion falling asleep.
‘I guess I misunderstood.’
Orion’s actions, which clearly showed that he came to this room to sleep without any action or uncomfortable atmosphere, made me feel a sense of regret. If she had known this would happen, she wouldn’t have looked at her in such disbelief… … .
I felt somewhat sorry to see Orion sleeping without a blanket. Seeing him sleeping really deeply, I got up and went closer to cover him with the blanket.
‘It’s probably still cold… ‘
A neatly folded blanket could be seen at the feet of the sleeping Orion. Without making a sound, I spread the blanket and covered Orion’s body. But at that moment, Orion’s closed eyes opened and he grabbed my wrist with one of his hands.
“Brother, this is temptation, right?”
Perhaps it was true that he had fallen asleep, but his voice was cracked and low. Orion pulled me by the wrist, held me in his arms, and sat on my stomach, pressing both of my arms.
“My brother tempted me first.”
Orion’s next words just made me feel absurd and ashamed. How do you respond if you say something like that in this manner? Instead of turning his head to look at Orion, he looked at the pure white wall and bit his lip.
