Love Motel
“You can go after you put the trash out,” his boss told him and Yu Hao did a salute.“Just go you punk,” his boss yelled after him and Yu Hao grinned, picked up the trash bags and went through the backdoor. It drizzled. He jumped down the stairs and tried to put the trash away as quickly as possible.“You shouldn’t jump down the stairs like that you know? You could hurt yourself.”Out of surprise Yu Hao let the lid of the trashcan go with a loud bang.“Zi Xuan?”Zi Xuan waved at him under his umbrella and Yu Hao quickly stepped under it.“Hey,” he greeted him and had to smile wide. It had been almost a week without seeing each other. There were little water droplets on Zi Xuan’s glasses and Yu Hao wanted to kiss him so badly it physically hurt.“Hey,” Zi Xuan said. “You’re done with your shift?”Yu Hao nodded. “Just have to grab my bag. I thought we wanted to meet later?”Zi Xuan reached out with his hand and brushed gently through his hair. Yu Hao felt the touch through his whole body.“Change of plans,” Zi Xuan said and gave him one of his little smiles. “Hurry up and get your bag.”Yu Hao nodded and hurried inside. When he came out the rain had gotten heavier. Which was kind of nice because they could walk with their side pressed together. People were rushing past them to get out of the rain but Zi Xuan who held the umbrella maintained a relaxed tempo.“Was your shift okay? No troubles?”“No troubles. How was your study session?” He found it a bit alarming, the amount of studying Zi Xuan had to do now in university, but he didn’t really care about his own workload for graduation so…“Where are we going?” he asked before Zi Xuan was able to answer his first question. Zi Xuan led him away from their homes into the heart of Taipeh and Zi Xuan had thought they would eat something and then head to his home.They stopped in front of automatic doors and Zi Xuan pushed him forward gently. Yu Hao tried to see the sign of the store but Zi Xuan moved them and then they were standing in front of a vending machine. A vending machine with keys in it. Why?Yu Hao took a shocked step back.“This is a love motel,” he whispered and grabbed Zi Xuan’s upper arm. “This. is. a. love. motel.”“I know.”“You know?”Yu Hao watched with big eyes how Zi Xuan put money in the vending machine and one of the boxes with a key in it opened after a quiet peep. Zi Xuan took the key and dangled it in front of Yu Hao’s face.“You don’t want to? Your mum’s home today you said and my sister and my parents are also at my place so I thought…”Yu Hao stared at the key, a simple silver one, not even a keycard, but with a chain hanging on it. The number 134 stood on it. He looked at Zi Xuan’s face.Sometimes he forgot. He forgot that Zi Xuan liked him. Not as a friend but as a lover. They were boyfriends and Zi Xuan wanted to touch him as much as Yu Hao wanted to touch Zi Xuan. Yu Hao always suggested going out eating or to meet with their friends because he didn't want to burden Zi Xuan with his wants. Sometimes he still thought it was a one-sided love.He didn’t see the furnishing of the room they entered. He didn’t see the tacky wallpaper, the bowl with the supplies, the red lights installed around the room.He was too busy kissing Zi Xuan while they stumbled through the room towards the bed. “I missed you,” he mumbled and snickered when Zi Xuan impatiently got rid of his own glasses. “Your knee okay with the weather?”, Yu Hao asked and yelped when he was suddenly thrown onto the bed. Zi Xuan straddled his legs.“I’ll show you how okay it is.”They were impatient and hasty, their fingers got in the way of their plans to undress each other but throughout it all, there were laughter and kisses. Yu Hao had never imagined that one day he would grave to touch another body so intimately. He knew how to make Zi Xuan gasp and that he would shudder when you kiss his collarbone. That he liked to draw the pleasure out until they were just writhing against each other, messy kisses and really just touching their lips, breathing the same air, while everything went hazy and hot.Zi Xuan liked it when they looked at each other and when Yu Hao became overwhelmed and closed his eyes he whispered: “Look at me. Look at me.”Yu Hao always forgot about time and where they were and wanted to be intertwined like this with Zi Xuan forever.Afterwards, they cuddled under the blanket and it was warm where their skin touched.“I’m not sure if I want to put my glasses back on to see how this room looks like.”Yu Hao snorted. “Didn’t you looked this place up?”“Just where it is and the price.”Yu Hao felt a blush creeping up his neck. “You really have no shame,” he mumbled in the crook of Zi Xuan’s neck. “You could have told me you want some time alone? I know my mum’s schedule.”“Remember what happened the last time we were in your bed?”, Zi Xuan teased him warmly. Yes… they had fallen out of it. He snuggled closer and Zi Xuan started to stroke his back.“How long can we be here?”“A little bit longer.”“Okay.” Sleeping in Zi Xuan’s arms for a while? That sounded great.
