The night is peaceful with the help of the city lights shining majestically throughout the road.
Keikazu successfully escaped from the party, driving his car around the city without a certain place to go to.
His mind's wandering around. Lost in thoughts, his mind forming plans of how he's gonna get back at the stubborn Director Santos. The new project was already delayed and cannot be stalled for far too long, they will be losing a huge amount and due to a setback once the negotiation fails.
As he drove his car in a steady speed in the middle of the highway, a figure of a person suddenly cut infront, trying to cross the road, making him halt in place, his car making a screeching sound as it was too sudden for what he did.
"Damn it." He couldn't help but curse and glanced infront, his eyes finding the figure who's a culprit for startling him.
But found none, K was rather flustered seeing no one standing there, he was sure someone did cut in his way.
Petrified that maybe he was imagining things, K decided to get down from his car and check what really happened, as if to prove himself he was not seeing things.
When he finally got off and saw a person was in the midst of trying to stand on his feet, he breathed a sigh of relief, thanking the heavens that it was a real person but immediately it dawned on him that he almost hit the careless man crossing the road, if his reflexes wasn't fast, K might have ended up running over someone.
As if a bucket of cold water was accidentally poured on him, K snapped then angrily stomped his feet while he strode towards the man that finally stood up. When K got closer and closer, the man turned his face in K's way and with the help of the street lights that shone over the man's face, he is able to recognize the familiarity of the person.
"...Secretary Hyde?"
K's utterance to the name was conscious, because he was not so sure if it really is his perfect secretary. In K's eyes, Hyde is the prim and proper secretary he's always been seeking for.
Well, not for the moment.
"H-hey"
He greeted, stammering.
Hyde is not his usual composed self, who bear dignity and pride, right now, what the stoic boss sees is another side of his deemed perfect secretary.
Just like that night.
Secretary Hyde's eyes were droopy, like it was lost in space, he couldn't look ahead straight, his stance is also wobbly, staggering while he stand.
K inched closer and reached for Hyde's waist, to hold his secretary, trying to help him stand fine. As soon as he got close to him, the stoic boss could smell the booze emanating from Hyde, it was rather strong and it tickles his nose. When their skins touched, it was another series of sparks fly, the same as the one he felt last time in the office but right now, he could not back away or even resist, he fought the urge to push away Hyde who's innocently
"You drank?" He asked. K knew it was dumb to question the obvious but what he was doubting about is how could a known lightweight, who has the lowest alcohol tolerance drunk to even reach this kind of drunken shape.
Hyde was almost hit earlier. Had it not be K who was able to brake in time, Hyde would have gotten himself in trouble.
Looking at how Hyde can not even open his eyes normally, it was squinting while he's trying to look at the other man.
K was left no choice but to bring Hyde to his car. Although he can't believe himself, assisting in his own accord his drunk secretary. But his conscience will not let him sleep soundly if he leave Hyde alone in the cold road.
K started walking.
"Urgh" Hyde is making faint groan sounds until they were able to settle inside K's car, he casually tossed Hyde in the passenger seat, making the smaller guy almost stumbling aside.
"This nutcase.." K panted for a while, he swiftly helped Hyde wear the seatbelt while the secretary who's drunk and wandering about in the middle of the night, has fallen deep into slumber in his comfortable seat.
After successfully buckling up, K stared fiercely at Hyde then he lifted a finger flicking on the smaller guy's forehead. "I'll charge you for this mess.. secretary Hyde."
When he finally got things done, K stepped in his gas and drove his car.
While driving, he couldn't help but steal glances at his secretary, worried that he might be uncomfortable or if along the bumps in the road, his head will be hit somewhere.
Keikazu is heading to his house in High Lands Villa, he does not have a slight idea where is his secretary's place. For the record, he's too lazy to go different ways so he came to conclusion that he'll just have to take Hyde to his home, he's not a heartless man much as they make him seem to be. At the slightest, he cares.
Especially, it's his secretary.
"Good evening, Mr. Isles"
The security guard manning the post at the front gate greeted back at K who slide down his car window to acknowledge the officer. He gave another nod before closing the car window and going ahead.
High Lands Villa is a neighborhood with the safest and tight security, it's a neighborhood full of young billionaires, everyone are bachelors and are living away from the limelight. Most of the ones living at High Lands are high profile noblemen, those who are wanting some peaceful living but luxurious and extravagant lifestyle still.
The gates were automatically opened the moment K's car drove inside his own mansion, he parked at his open garage and went down. He were about to head inside his home but remembered the baggage he carried home.
"Wake up.." K tapped gently on Hyde's cheeks, he is still asleep.
"Hey!" K tapped harder, putting more pressure on his hands but got no response from Hyde instead he clung on to his arms.
Hyde is warm. That's one thing K noticed and his secretary's breath fanning over his skin on his arms is sending tingles to him.
Accidentally, his eyes wandered falling on Hyde's lips. They were pink, and inviting, amidst the dark it seemed bright and shining in his eyes.
*Snap
K's head felt like there was a ringing, at the same time Hyde opened his eyes, shivers run down K's spine, snapping him out of what could be considered for the stoic man, extraordinary.
"B..boss?"
Hyde who's sobered somehow, stared at the image of his own boss infront of him.
"Even in my dreams.. you're appearing? Do you like torturing me so bad?"
Or so K thought. It appears that Hyde might be into some kind of illusion or a dream like he uttered.
But..
"Am I really appearing in your dreams?"
K's lips moved, subconsciously, he showed an amused grin while he watch his secretary's antics.
"Then what? Are you real?" Hyde made an annoyed expression, his lips pouting then he lifted his fingers.
The other man's eyes followed his secretary's fingers as he pointed it to him, slowly approaching his nose. Hyde ceased his moves, he left his pointing finger lingering on K's nose while the latter remained watching, finding what's happening a bit amusing.
Suddenly, Hyde started making circular motion, subtly caressing the other's pointed nose.
"You're not for real, you're a clone." Secretary Hyde who's still under the spell of alcohol blurted, retracting his finger to his side, his face showing disappointment. "My boss.. hates physical contact." And a shattering sentence left his mouth as the secretary passed out, K was fast enough to catch and hold him in his arms.
However, he remained still, motionless. Hyde's words resonating in his ears, like a deafening noise, it's causing a disturbance into his mind.. and a piercing pain in his heart. But.
..he's oblivious to the reason.
Afterwards, he woke up from trance and carried Hyde in his arms to get inside his house, the lights flicked in an instant, he moved towards the guest room he didn't know would be put to use. He opened the door and laid the sleeping secretary in the bed, covering him with the quilt then K turned around ready to leave.
Yet as he took one step ahead, he retracted, taking two steps back, turning then pulling the quilt off of Hyde's body.
The stoic man feel conflicted. Whether to change Hyde into a set of pajama or to leave him be.
"Frustrating" In the end, K chose to strip Hyde, starting from his blazer, K took it off then next is his polo shirt that had buttons, he slowly unbuttoned them, unconsciously, his hands were shaking but K didn't pay it any attention he focused on finishing to undo the shirt 'til the last button.
When he's finally done, only then did his eyes wander through his secretary's body exposed to his very eyes.
His throat suddenly felt dry.
K's gaze went from Hyde's bare chest to his flat stomach, his skin is as white as snow and as smooth as that of a baby even without feeling it against his own, K's more than a hundred percent sure, Hyde's skin will feel softer in his palm.
Next, his gaze shot upwards, falling in the most luscious part of Hyde's appearance. His sinful lips.
A surge of flashback about the night where last time at their company dinner, his secretary got awfully drunk and did the unthinkable.. kissed him.
Eversince that night, K cannot be honest but actually, he felt conscious towards Hyde to the point of pushing him away every time their body come in contact with each other, even the slightest touch would remind him of that night. K thought he was over that.. it was but a twist of fate after all. Yet at the very moment, while looking at Hyde who's defenseless, looking delicate and.. seductive.
K's face moved unknowingly to him, his movements seem to take an intent for something and as he grew closer and closer, he halted, his glare flaring as he stared at his secretary's lips.
That same lips.. it called him a clone and mumbled almost the truth, that he was avoiding physical contact not that he hated it but felt all strange about it, and now that same lips that touched his own before, Hyde's lips that kissed him while drunk before.. now, K had the urge to charge him for what he did before. To collect what Hyde stole from him.
His first kiss.
