Arriving at the destination, Coquettish Guy woke up with a gloomy face. Domineering Guy was excited because he enjoyed living with his wify in one hotel room with justified reason and cheering grumpy wify up.
When checking-in, the lady in the front desk asked, “Which two gonna pair up in one room?”
Domineering Guy excitedly put his arm around Coquettish Guy’s shoulder. The Glasses-guy smiled and said nothing. Surprisingly, the first one replied was Coquettish Guy. He pointed to Straight Guy, “Me and him are sharing a room.”
The other three on the spot were petrified, “???”
[111]
Being an adult, Domineering Guy did not lose temper in the front desk. Their rooms were adjacent. Carrying the luggage to the door, Domineering Guy ruefully looked at wify and was reluctant to part with him, “Chen.”
Coquettish Guy was helpless. His gaze swept across the three of them and then pulled
Domineering Guy to the aside, “You come with me.”
Straight Guy was confused by them. Carrying his luggage, Straight Guy did not know which room he should enter. He looked with appeal at The Glasses-guy, “Upperclassman….”
The Glasses-guy smiled, “They’re bickering. Come with me. Or you’ll change room again.”
Straight Guy had an epiphany and compliantly entered the same room with The Glasses-guy. He thought, “The upperclassman was so smart. His words do make sense.”
[112]
Coquettish Guy had his own idea. He thought Straight Guy did not know the normal way of getting along with boys; besides, he was not well acquainted with The Glasses-guy. They must feel a bit awkward when living in one room. Therefore, he proposed living with Straight Guy in a room.
Domineering Guy pondered about Coquettish Guy’s words and felt it did make sense, but, in order to benefit himself, he chose to lie through his teeth to get himself some. “It’s ok. Honey. It’s just a two-day trip, one night in the same room. Nothing will go wrong.”
Seeing Coquettish Guy was hesitate about it, Domineering Guy tried harder to persuade him, “What’s more, Jingnan (The Glasses-guy) was an excellent upperclassman. If Zhou gets familiar with him, it’s better for Zhou.”
Coquettish Guy was confused, “Do you really think so?”
Domineering Guy nodded crazily.
Coquettish Guy replied, “But aren’t you the one who said Zhou may turned gay…”
“I was overthinking”, Domineering Guy immediately stopped him and accompanied him to the room. He said to Coquettish Guy, “Let’s put the luggage in the room. I’m hungry. Zhou is an adult. He won’t act impulsively.”
[113]
Here was the thing. Domineering Guy planned to order a King Size Bedroom for him and wify, a Twin Bedroom for The Glasses-guy and Straight Guy because he intended to get busy with Coquettish Guy. But Coquettish Guy was a bashful person and was reluctant to get naughty with Domineering Guy when they are travelling with company. So Coquettish Guy required Domineering Guy to order two Twin Bedrooms.
However, driven by hormone, Domineering Guy secretly ordered a King Size Bedroom for Chen and him regardless and he prepared to spill the beans on the spot, making up an excuse that there was no extra Twin Bedroom available. Domineering Guy did not tell his scampish intention to anyone, but he never expected Coquettish Guy would foul up his plan.
The Glasses-guy and Straight Guy chose a room at random and got in. Unfortunately, it was the King Size Bedroom.
Straight Guy, “What?How do we sleep at night? I’m wondering whether Boss and Chen’s room is the same. Maybe we can ask them and exchange.”
The Glasses-guy, “Don’t need to ask. Zhou Ming mentioned he ordered two same rooms. Besides, it is the high season. The hotel’s rooms are also in short supply. He has no choice. Let’s settle for what we’ve got. Don’t make it difficult for him.”
“Ok.” Straight Guy nodded and compliantly put his luggage in the room.
[114]
Coquettish Guy was satisfied with his boyfriend’s moral principle. Clingy and rascally Straight Guy could get, but he did what Coquettish Guy said. Coquettish Guy was against the idea of getting naughty with Zhou Ming when traveling with friends, therefore, he required Zhou Ming to book Twin Bedrooms. And surprisingly Zhou Ming really did it. Coquettish Guy was moved by how respectful Zhou Ming was.
Coquettish Guy sat down and unscrewed the bottle cap, taking a sip of water, “Maybe I’m overthinking about it.”
“What?” Domineering Guy came over and motioned Coquettish Guy to feed him a sip of water.
“A big cabinet is between the two beds. It’s hard to cause any misunderstanding.” Coquettish Guy cracked a hint of smile and seemed relieved, “I’m overthinking.”
Domineering Guy had to suffer in silence and echoed Coquettish Guy robotically, “Yes. Yes. You’re right.”
[115]
The four planned when they should meet downstairs and get food beforehand, and felt that they could take a break before meeting.
The Glasses-guy glanced at Straight Guy who was chilling on the bed playing with his mobile phone and advised him friendly, “There may be lots of mosquitoes and bugs at the place where we pick oranges in the afternoon. You’d better wear some long pants.”
Straight Guy humbly took his advices and prepared to change pants like in the dorm. Straight Guy paused in no time and thought that he had never asked the upperclassman whether he minded it or not and it’s bad to assume that is okay. And then, Straight Guy decided to get changed in the bathroom. Suddenly, he heard The Glasses-guy asking him with a smile, “What happened? Do I need to avoid?”
“Haha. That’s ok.” Straight Guy became embarrassed instead. He was overthinking about it. This kind of behavior was normal between boys. He was gauging the heart of a man of integrity with his own biased measure.
[116]
After meal, they went to pick oranges with the guidance of the owner. Coquettish Guy was picking oranges in front and he was closely followed by Domineering Guy who was peeling oranges to feed him. Coquettish Guy felt sorry for only eating oranges fed by Domineering Guy. And it became an exchange of love feeding. With the shelter of orange trees, their intimate behaviors were hard to be seen.
Compared with them, Straight Guy was a person with one-track mind. He had been picking oranges so diligently that soon after he picked a full basket and then did he realized he should have a taste. Straight Guy thought, “The orange is really sweet. Maybe because it is picked by myself, it is fresher and sweeter than supermarket ones.” He wanted to share oranges with his friends, but no one was around.
Without seeing Domineering Guy and Coquettish Guy, he firstly saw The Glasses-guy, “Upperclassman, this is sweet. Please taste it.” The Glasses-guy took half of the orange with a smile. Seeing him diligently picking oranges, The Glasses-guy said while tearing the pith of the orange, “Don’t work too hard. We come here to relax and play. If you really like the taste, you can ask the owner to pick more for you and take them back.”
Straight Guy smirked and then realized he came here for traveling rather than taking a part-time job. While speaking, The Glasses-guy tore all the pith of the orange and handed it back, “Come on. Let’s have a rest.”
[117]
Straight Guy and The Glasses-guy were eating oranges side by side for a while. Straight Guy proposed to play with Boss and Chen. Then they stood up and looked for them.
This orange forest was not big and the orange trees were not that tall. Normally, they should come across. However, it wasn’t until when walked into deep of the forest that they found two vague figures hidden among the trees.
The Glasses-guy covered Straight Guy’s mouth when he was about to call them, “Hush!” said The upperclassman at his ear, which caused Straight Guy so sensitive that he recoiled, “Be quiet. They are in the middle of something.”
Straight Guy wisely silenced himself. By watching carefully, he found Domineering Guy and Coquettish Guy were kissing in the orange forest.
The Glasses-guy glanced at red-faced Straight Guy with interest, “You do find it when two men do intimate behaviors, don’t you?”
Straight Guy shook his head and did not dare to look at them out of shyness, “No. Actually, I think they are a lovely couple.”
[118]
Again history had proved that PDA (public display of affection) would incur punishment. Domineering Guy rushed at the front desk to ask for mopidick the second they got back at the hotel. The front desk lady saw the multiple mosquito bites on Coquettish Guy’s legs. She was surprised, “You gotta run away when there are mosquitos. How can you stay at a place when you are aware there are mosquitos and got yourself bitten like this?”
Coquettish Guy blushed so much that he went scarlet, trying to make sound calm, “My body attracts mosquitoes.”
Domineering Guy’s heart ached so much that he became speechless, all he did was squatting on the ground to rub mosquito bites cream cream on Coquettish Guy’s shank. Seeing that, Straight Guy thought, “Poor Chen. Fortunately, the upperclassman reminded me to wear long pants.”
[119]
The evening barbecue was self-service and the shop keeper provided ingredients and tools. Only two people could stand in front of the grill. Straight Guy was willing to serve others. He firstly put the skewered vegetables and meat on the grill and started roasting. Coquettish Guy was standing next to Straight Guy, and quite naturally he picked up the brush to season the on the food.
They cooperated very well, but Domineering Guy who couldn’t stick around the wify was a little anxious, “Zhou, I am coming, you can take a break.”
Straight Guy smiled at him, “I just started. I’m not tired.”
The Glasses-guy knew Domineering Guy’s intention and quietly reminded Straight Guy in his ear. Straight Guy suddenly blushed, “Boss, you do it. My hand is almost broken.” Domineering Guy cooperated with Coquettish Guy to roast food as he had expected. Domineering Guy was roasting food and Coquettish Guy was brushing oil, such a lovely team.
The Glasses-guy called perplexed Straight Guy to come over as his assistant, “Let’s take turns, we can take their spot when they need a break.” The Glasses-guy said. Straight Guy nodded crazily. That amused The Glasses-guy. He said to Straight Guy in a low voice, “It can be a hassle to go out with a couple. Because you would accidentally become the third wheel. Next time you can stay with me.” Straight man deeply agreed with him.
[120]
They talked for a while and drank some Chinese liquor. They went back to their room as it was getting late. The Glasses-guy and Straight Guy walked behind, and saw that Domineering Guy and Coquettish Guy walked together with fingers intertwined. The scene was harmonious, even if they were two boys. Straight Guy looked at them for a while, and felt that he and the upperclassman were a little embarrassed walking side by side. Their hands were about to touch, so he paused and deliberately walk behind The Glasses-guy.
The Glasses-guy seemed aware that and turned back with a mild look, “Zhou, What happened?”
Straight Guy felt guilty, “Nothing. I’m not thinking of anything.”
“Ok. Please come in.” The Glasses-guy made a “please” gesture like a gentleman. Straight Guy entered the room first and then The Glasses-guy closed the door.
