stained with the imprint of love... me and you

"What did she tell you?" Matthew had promised Candice not to tell about the night he went out.

"It's nothing." Erica told Matthew her guess without a definite reason. "I just saw her guilty look when she mentioned Jesse in front of you. Also, the way you responded to her eyes."

"It's very observational." Matthew realized that he had acquiesced to Erica's question just now.

"That's it." Erica also found this out.

"It's really..." Matthew said with a slightly annoyed smile. "I promised her not to say anything."

"How is she...?" Erica asked hesitantly. "Is it amazing?"

"It would take you and me to have sex once to compare." Matthew replied badly.

"I mean...compared to other women you've slept with," Erica added right away. "Don't tell me stupid things like 'I haven't slept with other women'."

"That kind of stupid stuff... I wouldn't say it." Matthew handed the swab to Erica as well. "She? She has a good figure."

"But you're not bad." Matthew shifted the conversation to Erica.

"I think, I'd like the feeling of being with you more." Matthew said without any concealment.

"Whatever you think." Erica began to apply the medicine to the wound on her chest.

"It made me half happy..." Matthew explained with a smirk. "Thought you were going to say 'whatever you want'..."

The only response to Matthew was Erica, her head bowed and her wounds painted.

"I'll get you some clothes." Matthew, who didn't continue to tease, walked towards the bedroom.

"Actually, Matthew..." Erica felt a little awkward asking the question out loud.

Matthew, who heard Erica pronounce his name for the first time, stopped and looked at Erica who was still facing away from him.

"Can you let me stay here for a while. Probably...until dawn." Erica felt that she would definitely be scolded by Patrick and asked questions by Jesse when she went back like this.The most important thing is that going back at this time will definitely wake them up who may have fallen asleep.

Patrick will leave tomorrow, and tomorrow is also my rest day.At least one more day would be good.Maybe the wound will heal better tomorrow.At least, it's better than it is now.

"Want to spend the night with me?" Matthew asked Erica with deliberately twisted words.

"Is that okay?" Erica briefly asked Matthew for advice.

"Generally speaking, I don't have the habit of keeping women who don't sleep with me overnight." Matthew answered quickly. "However... let's make an exception this time."

"But I'm making an exception for you..." Matthew walked into the bedroom to fetch clothes for Erica after he finished speaking.

"Thank you." After Erica thanked her, she covered the wound with the medicine she had applied.

"Actually, if you want a wound like that to heal quickly." Matthew's voice came from the bedroom. "If you want to feel better and faster, you'd better not wear anything."

Then came the sound of Matthew's footsteps coming out of the bedroom.

"But in that case... I guess I can't sleep well..." Matthew said with a smile, walking to Erica and handing her the clothes.

"Actually, it's not impossible." Erica took the clothes. "I'll just sit here. You go in and sleep."

"It doesn't matter if you wear clothes or not," Erica said.

"When I think of a naked woman sitting in the living room a few meters away...how can I sleep..." Matthew smiled.

"Then it's as if I'm dressed." Erica didn't immediately put on the clothes Matthew handed her.

"Okay then." Matthew stood up and took a look at Erica. From this angle, he could still see Erica's naked chest clearly.Very beautiful curves, Matthew suddenly felt a little hot in his head.

"Although it is difficult. But, let's try it out." Matthew re-entered the bedroom. "good night."

"Good night," Erica said.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

And at Spencer's house, Elvin, who had been drunk to a mess, collapsed on the sofa and fell asleep.

Although Dominic drank a lot, he still looked like he hadn't drunk anything.

"The feeling of being drunk is always familiar." Dominic, who was leaning on the chair, said to himself or to Kanyue opposite. "It's the feeling of living in a world of one person."

"Which one?" Kanyue asked.

"Alone." Dominic glanced at Kanyue.

"The world is spinning, painful and confusing." Dominic kept looking at Xiyue and continued. "This kind of taste can only be clearly felt by the drunk self."

"That's only clear when you're drunk. In fact, that kind of clarity is just the drunk itself." Xiyue looked at Dominic who had been looking at her. "When I'm sober, everything becomes unclear."

"But the feeling of living in a world of one person is always so clear." Kanyue added the last sentence.

"Do you like living in such a world where only you are alone?" Dominic asked.

"It doesn't matter whether you like it or not. It's just living." Jianyue replied. "Isn't everyone like this?"

"That makes sense." Dominic got up to stand up, but was still a little unbalanced by the effect of the alcohol.

Kanyue, who was sitting opposite, walked over, ready to support Dominic.

When Yanyue was holding Dominic's body, Dominic suddenly slipped from Yanyue's hand.When Kanyue moved her body up to support the drunken Dominic from falling, she accidentally wiped Dominic's lips with her face.

"To be alive is a kind of clear and meaningless sobriety." After Dominic adjusted his body, he continued what he hadn't finished speaking. "False and meaningless sobriety."

"All you can do is to soberly compare who is more hypocritical and who lives a better life." Dominic leaned his body against the wall. "Life, that's how it is. A bunch of hypocrites surrounded by another bunch of hypocrites. We all live together."

"However, it seems that your hypocrisy is also the quietness that you don't need to be with anyone." Juyue looked at Dominic, then lowered her head and smiled softly.

"My quietness didn't start after being claimed by them. It was there long ago." Dominic leaned his body leaning against the wall towards Kanyue. "My liking didn't come from your accidental kiss on the cheek just now."

"From the first time I saw you, it was already there."

Dominic lowered his thin body slightly, and kissed Jianyue's lips slightly.

The mixed smell of agave and lemon spread in Kanyue's mouth.And Dominic's body getting closer and closer.

"What the fuck are you doing?!"

Elvin, who was already sober or awakened by the scene in front of him, said in a loud voice.

"What do you think I'm doing." Dominic replied to Elvin with a calm face.At the same time, keep the distance between the lips and the moon not exceeding one centimeter.

"You idiot..." Elvin cursed.

Then he rushed in front of Dominic and punched Dominic in the face.

Being drunk already made it difficult for Dominic to stand, and with Elvin's sudden punch, Kanyue, who was being held by Dominic, also fell to the ground along with Dominic.

"Do you like men?!" Elvin was a little angry and pulled Dominic up from the ground.

After pulling Dominic up, Elvin kissed Dominic's lips.

Unlike Dominic's kiss to Kanyue just now, Elvin's kiss was both forced and rough.

However, after failing to last for two seconds, he was pushed away vigorously by Dominic.And Jianyue, who just got up from the ground, hadn't reacted from being kissed by Dominic, so she had to accept the absurd and ridiculous situation in front of him.

"Come up and do this to me again, and I'll kill you." Dominic cursed at Elvin.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

"Only you can rush over and do such a thing to others?!" Elvin kicked the chair in front of him.Walking towards Dominic without taking what Dominic just said at all.

"As I said, if you dare to do it again, I will kill you." Dominic stood still and said to Elvin who was walking towards him. "Don't come near me again."

"I want to see how you can kill me." Elvin punched Dominic in the stomach.

Although under the effect of alcohol, Elvin's punch did not make Dominic feel very painful, but it still made Dominic bend over.

"Is this what you call killing me?" Elvin pulled Dominic's hair as he hunched over.

Dominic took advantage of the gap and punched Elvin hard, also in the stomach.

Elvin didn't bend down like Dominic, but continued to pull Dominic's hair, and instead pushed Dominic to the ground after Dominic punched himself.

"Stop it." Kanyue who was at the side finally spoke.

"Stop it all." Kanyue said to Dominic and Elvin. "Aren't things like this boring?"

"The person I like doesn't like me." Juyue helped up the chair that Elvin had kicked down. "It's boring to be troubled by such things."

"Shut up, you bastard." Elvin was already furious when he saw Dominic's rushing kiss to Jianyue, and the fact that Yanyue was still sneering made Elvin even more angry. "You are not qualified to speak."

"You like that guy Dominic. But that guy likes me." Juyue looked at Elvin who was rushing towards him, and Dominic who was behind him trying to stop Elvin. "And the person I like is actually you."

And the person I like is actually you.

After hearing the last sentence, Elvin froze in place, and Dominic behind him no longer tried to stop Elvin.

"Tell me, why am I not qualified to speak?" Xiyue felt a little ridiculous when she saw Dominic and Elvin stopped by her last words.

"For me, it doesn't matter whether I tell it or not." Juyue looked at Dominic and Elvin who couldn't tell anything but just looked at herself. "Similarly, I'm not distressed by the consequences of not speaking up or saying something like that."

"What do you mean 'wouldn't be distressed by the consequences of telling or not telling such a thing'?!" Elvin didn't quell his anger because of Kanyue's liking for him.

"It's just that we still like people who don't like us at all, idiot." Dominic explained to Elvin very wittily.

"I'm going back to my room." Juyue didn't want to continue to face this embarrassing situation.

"What about you?" Dominic asked Elvin, whose back was turned to him. "When are you going to go home?"

"Shut up! Idiot!" Elvin turned his head and cursed at Dominic.

"Sit down for me if you don't go back." Dominic walked towards the sofa. "I have something to tell you."

"What?!" Elvin thought Dominic would scold him coldly and go back.So, Elvin was surprised by what Dominic said just now.

Also surprised, there is actually Kanyue.It's just that he walked up the stairs alone without saying much.

Dominic waited until Jianyue walked upstairs before he started to speak to Elvin.

"I like you. If you have to ask me since when." Elvin spoke first, and the first sentence was his confession to Dominic. "I do not know either."

"I have something to tell you. Not to listen to you." Dominic replied mercilessly to Elvin's confession.

"You just said you like me." Dominic repeated Elvin's confession without any joy. "Then what."

"Want to kiss me, want to possess me. Want to keep possessing me over and over again." Dominic asked again in his usual unemotional tone. "Then what."

"I didn't say..." Elvin was caught off guard by Dominic's sudden questioning.

"You don't like that at all." Dominic interrupted Elvin. "It's just that there are too many desires accumulated in the body but there is nowhere to launch them."

"Why do you speak plausibly about me?!" Elvin was annoyed by Dominic's last sentence. "What's the difference between what you do yourself and what I do?! The person who just rushed to kiss someone else was you, Dominic Spencer, right?!"

"Because I know I like him." Dominic ignored Elvin's rising tone of anger and replied in his normal decibels. "Like that dead guy I liked before."

"What?!" Elvin didn't understand what 'dead guy' meant in Dominic's last sentence.

"That was when I was still in City S." Dominic looked at the shocked Elvin. "Before I was adopted."

"Mom before she passed away." Dominic said "Mom" in the last sentence in Japanese.

"I've been with that guy for four months." There was a hint of sadness on Dominic's indifferent expression. "The best four months of my life."

"Until he was sexually abused to death by those scumbags." Dominic looked at Elvin again. "And it restored my pain."

"Sex...abuse...death..." Elvin always thought it was a word that had little connection with him.And such words, but not only appeared in the form of words on Dominic, who was 13 years old at the time.To be precise, someone Dominic likes.

"Although it is undeniable that I was foolishly trying to save something." Dominic's originally low voice became lower and lower. "There's really nothing to save. Nothing can be saved."

"Those who should live will live well. But those who should die can't die naturally." Dominic stared at the empty wine bottle on the table in front of him in a daze.

"I've always liked a sentence, although I can't remember who said it." Dominic continued to preach with a somewhat dazed look staring at the empty wine bottle. "Without a storm, the sail is but a rag."

"Without him, it's like I've gone from promise to crap." Dominic sneered.

"After he died, my headache problem became more and more obvious." Dominic leaned his whole body on the sofa, with his head facing the ceiling. "Sometimes, I would hit my head against the wall in pain. Use more pain to cover up this uncontrollable pain."

"It's better not to do such stupid things as hitting the wall." Elvin, who was listening carefully from the side, finally responded. "Will the person you think about in your head also suffer along with it?"

"Although if it could be me, that kind of pain is good." Elvin smiled self-deprecatingly.

"Actually, if it weren't for the cleanliness that only sleeps with the person you like. I really want to lend you my body for one night." Dominic glanced at Elvin. "I won't bother you any more."

"It's not a matter of one or several nights. You know that, Dommy." Elvin smiled.

"Besides, my position is always on top." Dominic continued to look at Elvin. "Do you understand what I mean? Idiot. Follow me, and you will never be able to be an attacker for the rest of your life."

"Haha...then I will know only if I have the chance to be with you." Elvin showed his usual smile, a beautiful and hearty laugh. "However, it seems that even the chance of being attacked by you is gone."

"Obviously all you want is to overwhelm me. You're talking nonsense." Dominic could already see what Elvin was thinking.

"But the person you want to overwhelm, what you want more is to be overwhelmed by me..." Elvin deliberately wanted to stimulate Dominic.

"If you dare to touch him, I will let you feel attacked." Dominic said harshly.

"I can't help but take advantage of the home delivery... You know, the guy said he likes me." Elvin said triumphantly.

"Shut up and go to sleep." Dominic stood up from the sofa. "I'll wake you up tomorrow."

"Then where are you going to sleep?" Elvin suddenly remembered that the bedrooms in Spencer's house were all on the second floor. "Shouldn't you sneak into that guy's room in the middle of the night and try to force him..."

"Shut up and go to sleep." Dominic finished his last sentence and walked upstairs.

Dominic walked very slowly and lightly.Although the sound of his walking is usually very light, but.This time, it seemed that he was cautious for some reason.

After walking upstairs, Dominic still lightly knocked on the door of Xunyue's room.

"Are you still awake?" Dominic asked in his usual voice.

"If you have anything to say, open the door and discuss it." Kanyue's voice came from the room.

Dominic opened the door to see Kanyue with her head resting in her folded palms.

"Tomorrow I want to eat miso ramen." Dominic looked at Kanyue and said in a normal tone. "The ingredients are already available at home. You don't need to go out and buy them."

"That's good." Kanyue also looked at Dominic, and replied briefly.

"Tomorrow if you want to, I'll ask ET to come along too." Dominic said before closing the door.

"Why..." Yue Yue was a little puzzled by Dominic's decision. "you do not mind……"

Kanyue didn't say the words 'I like him'.

"It's useless to mind." Dominic shrugged, his tone seemed a little indifferent. "And, that idiot. Is the only friend I have right now."

"The only friend and the only person I like, among them." Dominic looked at Kanyue. "I hope at least I can keep one."

"Can't I be your only friend?" Kan Yueban asked Dominic while lying on the bed.

"Then what is ET?" Dominic asked instead of answering Yueyue's question. "Then who will fill in the only person I like?"

"It was already very difficult to find someone I like again." Dominic kept looking at Kanyue. "Don't make it harder for me."

After finishing speaking, Dominic closed the door.

"Why does this guy's words that should sound pleasant and surprising sound like 'Do you want mineral water with bubbles or no bubbles'..." Xiyue turned off the lights and smiled in the dark . 'The only person I like...it seems like no one in my life has ever used that word on me. '

'It's not that I don't like Dominic at all. 'Yue Yue lay on her side, ready to fall asleep in this position. 'It's just that he always puts on an inaccessible and incomprehensible appearance, and I myself don't have much patience to please him.This is also the reason why I have never seriously dated anyone. '

'But today, it seems that that layer' is difficult to approach.Incomprehensible' membrane, there is a space that allows me to pass. ’ Kanyue recalled the smell when Dominic kissed her.
