Long Days Make For Longer Nights (Au!Fic)
It’s been a long day.
Interns can never do anything right, and he’s spent all day managing them for his boss. The computer system shut down halfway through the day and all the numbers had to be entered manually. A secretarial job suddenly turned into baby sitter, electrician, and coffee bitch. Things have not been going well for Ryeowook.
He can feel the tension easing from his back as he finally closes the door to his apartment, absolutely exhausted from work. He sighs as he makes his way to the bathroom; the only thing that could possibly relax him at this point is a long, hot bath.
Ryeowook allows himself the luxury of one bath a week, to let the stress of the day melt away in the bubbles and warm water. One hour of pure bliss where he lets his head fall back against the white porcelain, arms lightly skimming the water as he lets himself fall slowly into a state of relaxation.
It’s about half an hour into his bath and Ryeowook is about ready to melt into a puddle of relaxed goo when a pair of clothed arms come around his shoulders.
“Bath night already?” Jongwoon laughs as Ryeowook hums and leans his head back on his shoulder, tucking it in the crook of Jongwoon’s neck. “Must have been a long day.”
“It was.” Ryeowook leans his head back until he’s staring Jongwoon in the eyes and grins, leaning up to steal a kiss. “And I’m sure yours was fantastic as always?”
Jongwoon leans his head on Ryeowook’s shoulder and lightly kisses the exposed skin there as Ryeowook sighs. “As always. Meetings, meetings and more meetings.”
Ryeowook shifts as Jongwoon lets his hands wander under the water. “Now go away, you’re ruining my bath. I still have fifteen minutes left.”
Jongwoon chuckles and gives Ryeowook one last peck before taking his arms from the water and heading towards their bedroom. Ryeowook makes little shifts in the bubbles and water until he deems his time up, lightly stepping out of the bath and wrapping himself in a fluffy towel.
He finds Jongwoon on the bed, tie unknotted and popping the buttons on his dress shirt. He smiles and admires the view as he towels off his hair. Jongwoon pulls him onto his lap as Ryeowook edges closer toward the bed, smiling at the surprised noise the other man makes.
“I had a long day too you know.” He cuddles into Ryeowook’s neck, drawing little shapes on the younger man’s hips as Ryeowook hums.
“Really now?” Ryeowook lets Jongwoon’s hands play with the top of his towel as he shifts in his lap. “And I suppose you want to relax too then?”
Jongwoon just grins before pulling Ryeowook into a kiss, looping his arms around a petit waist as Ryeowook fiddles with the remaining buttons on his shirt.
“Interesting way of relaxing you have here.” Ryeowook’s laugh turns into a sigh as Jongwoon moves to lightly kiss his still damp neck, inhaling the fresh scent there. He lets his nails scrape blunt trails down Jongwoon’s back under his wife beater, getting an appreciative groan for his trouble.
Jongwoon claims his lips again as they’re turned horizontally in the bed, teeth worrying his bottom lip as Ryeowook feels his towel slipping dangerously lower on his hips. Jongwoon grins down at him as Ryeowook attempts to yank his remaining clothes over his head, towel drooping even further in the struggle.
“Trying to have your cake and eat it too are we?” Jongwoon’s eyes glint as Ryeowook scoffs at him.
“Oh shut up.” Ryeowook finally wins his fight with the aforementioned article of clothing and runs his hands over the newly exposed stomach. “Just get on with it.” The last part comes out a bit of a groan as Jongwoon’s hand presses down hard on his towel.
“What was that you were saying?” Jongwoon grins sadistically as Ryeowook bucks against his hand and punches him on the shoulder. Ryeowook brings his knee up in quick retaliation and lets his head fall back in satisfaction at Jongwoon’s hiss.
“That’s more like it.” And things are a blur for Ryeowook and there’s so much touching he thinks he may just explode. It’s all he can do to pull at the tie around Jongwoon’s neck to bring him back down, muffling his cries against warm lips, his nails making little crescents on Jongwoon’s back. It feels like he’s drowning and then he breaks the surface again, gasping into Jongwoon’s shoulder as they lay shuddering on the bed.
Jongwoon card his hands through his hair, still dripping water droplets, as Ryeowook puffs into his shoulder. “Feeling better?” Ryeowook grins into his collarbone, feelings arms tight around his waist.
Jongwoon hums into his hair. “Much. Now I need a shower, care to join?” Ryeowook shoves his chest.
“No, I just took a bath! You missed your chance stud.” Ryeowook laughs as Jongwoon pouts at him, picking up the discarded towel on his way to bathroom. Ryeowook sighs and falls back on the bed.
He’s asleep when Jongwoon comes back, curled up into himself as his back is pulled into Jongwoon’s chest. He wakes up the next day and does the same thing all over again and decides that one bath a week is clearly not enough. This time Jongwoon comes home early enough and takes his chance.
It’s another long day.
