PP Prologue
by Luka‘Ah… I’m screwed.’
That was the first thought Won had when he woke up in an unfamiliar bed.
Even though smoking indoors wasn’t allowed, he had an unlit cigarette dangling from his lips anyway, a desperate attempt to calm his nerves by any means possible.
Won blinked slowly and traced his thoughts back to where all of this had started.
He had taken an extreme liking to an offline-exclusive costume item, and catching up with his guild members for the first time in a while had gotten him way too excited. On top of that, an incredibly pretty kid had clung to him, even offering to call him oppa, causing his rationality to slightly…
In short, it was an accident born out of a drunken mistake.
“I seriously need to quit drinking,”
Won muttered in a half-groggy voice, chewing on the end of the cigarette.
The moment his voice cut through the quiet air, he felt the person lying next to him flinch. Turning his head slowly toward the movement, he saw a shape that was hard to distinguish as either a bundle of blankets or a human being.
Won stared blankly at the white mass, still chewing the cigarette between his teeth. A rosy cheek peeked outbetween the white sheets, covered in soft, fine down. Soft and light pink, it looked just like a peach.
They say people grow up to match their names, but how does he look so much like an actual peach? Won thought, letting out a sigh through his lips.
“Dohwa.”
At the name uttered alongside his sigh, the curled-up bundle—Do-hwa—flinched once more.
Won let out a breathless chuckle at the reaction, throwing his head back and squeezing his eyes shut.
Fuck, me with a guy… But he was really pretty. And he called me oppa… If I just convince myself I did it with a slightly unique girl… maybe it’s not the worst?
Won finished running his very self-serving mental calculations and slowly brought his head back up.
Then he met the eyes of the rosy little peach who had been nervously sneaking glances at him. Won’s eyes swept quickly over the disheveled, bleached light-pink hair, the eyes and lips slightly swollen and puffy, and the forehead and cheeks flushed with embarrassment. A laugh that sounded almost like a groan escaped him.
“My little peach, what are we going to do with you? Giving your virginity to oppa like this. But Dohwa, let’s not feel too wronged. This was oppa‘s first time with a guy, too. I never imagined in all my life that I’d end up sleeping with a man.”
Won chuckled as Dohwa’s face instantly flushed crimson the second he finished speaking.
It was a rather bewildering morning, and having an ache in a place that really shouldn’t be hurting made it unpleasant, but he couldn’t deny that he liked that pretty face.
At least I like his face, thank goodness, Won thought, letting out a long breath.
It was the start of a day that felt just like any other, yet was anything but ordinary.
