Chapter 3: Don't Wanna Let You Go

The next day, Bodi woke up with a throbbing headache. "Argh! Bodi groaned and sat on the bed pressing his temples with his eyes still closed.

After the pain in his head subsides a little, Bodi opens his eyes and notices the surroundings. "What the fuck! Ah!" He taps his forehead in disbelief. "Ahhh! you're so stupid Bodi!" He mumbles and flopped his body back on the bed but hurriedly stands up when he catches a glimpse of the pajamas he was wearing.

"Sean Albrecht Whitlock!!!!!!!!!!" He shouted at the top of his lungs.

Sean who was cooking downstairs in the kitchen was startled and dropped the ladle on the floor. He's making breakfast and hangover soup for Bodi. It's Sunday, So Sean told the maids and even the guards not to come every Saturday and Sunday as he wants to have some privacy when he is at home. And of course, he wants to enjoy Bodi alone.

"Aish! He's so loud." Sean hisses, clearing his ears.

"Good morning my baby," Sean said, suppressing his laughter when he saw Bodi going down the stairs.

"Arg! fuck you, Sean Albrecht!" roared Bodi

"Yes baby, I will fuck you later," Sean winked at him.

"Pervert!" Bodi scoffed. "Where are my clothes? Why am I wearing this thing? Bodi referred to the girly pink pajamas he was wearing. It was a pair of Pippa pig-designed pajamas with ruffles at every hem of it.

"What's wrong with that? It suits you very well. You look so cute, baby." Sean replied while Bodi's face tainted crimson red.

"Your clothes were dirty, and no maids are home now to wash them. You can wear your clothes later after breakfast. Here, have a seat." Sean put a bowl of hangover soup on the table.

"No, I'm leaving now, give me the clothes, please." Bodi stubbornly declined Sean's offer.

"Why are you in a hurry? Do you miss your wife that much? Then, why did you come here in the first place?" Sean with obvious annoyance in his tone and couldn't conceal his facial expressions.

"No! Of course not! Fine, I will eat then." Bodi hurriedly sat down, he couldn't understand either why he came to Sean's place. All he could remember is he was thinking about Sean and he wanted to see the man badly.

Sean sat down on the chair across from Bodi and crossed his arms on the table. "Drink the soup now before it gets cold," Sean told him

"Fine! whatever! Bodi then start eating in silence

"So how's the taste?" Sean smiled seeing Bodi enjoying the food he prepared.

"Mm... just fine." Yibo short response

'Oh, but you almost finished the bowl of soup!"

"Okay fine, it's delicious, okay! happy now?" Bodi replies coldly and Sean smiles faintly and pushes the hangover medicine to him.

"Here, take this after you finish your food, it's a hangover pill."

"Bodi didn't answer and just continued eating.

"So, what brought you here at past midnight?" Sean's sudden questions almost choked Bodi and Sean pushed the glass of water to him.

"Hey, what's with that reaction? I'm just asking what brought you here to my place at that hour?"

"I-I... I'm drunk maybe... I don't know. arrrgg!... Can you stop interrogating me?!!!" Bodi yells at Sean and slammed the spoon on the table. Sean was taken aback.

"Oh, I-I'm sorry, alright? Finish your meal and take the medicine after. Just leave the bowl here. I will clean that later, I'll go upstairs first and prepare your clothes." Sean held back the tears that were about to escape from his eyes and then walked away from the dining room leaving Bodi alone.

Bodi regretted what he did when he noticed Sean's changes in facial expression. His heart ached as if someone was squeezing it.

"Did I treat him that harshly? Why is he being like that? I'm not used to it! And why is this feeling? arrrggg! forget it, Bodi!" He mumbles after Sean disappeared from his sight.

In Sean's room. Sean is choosing the clothes that he will lend to Bodi when Bodi's phone that was left on the nightstand rings. Sean then looked at the caller ID. It's Emily.

Sean felt like his heart was pierced with hundreds of needles. A twin drop of tears trickled from his eyes. But, immediately wiped them away when he heard footsteps coming in.

"I'm done, where are the clothes," asked Bodi

"On the bed, and also here are the brand-new underwear and socks." Sean put them down on the bed while avoiding Bodi's gaze.

"The towel is already in the bathroom, You can use it now. And by the way, someone's calling you just now. I'm sorry I didn't call you as the call suddenly ended. I will go downstairs now." Sean then turned his back and trudged towards the door without sparing a glance at Bodi.

"Bodi unlocked his phone and tossed it on the bed. Before Sean could get out of the room, Bodi held him on the wrist. Bodi is not used to Sean's behavior right now, he doesn't understand why, and he doesn't like it. It's uncomfortable.

"Sean, are you avoiding me?"

"No! Why would I?" Sean still facing the door and Bodi is behind him holding his wrist

Bodi: You're lying!

Sean: No!

Bodi: Yes you are!

Sean: I said no!

Bodi: Oh, yes, you are!

Sean: Bodi, let go of me!

Bodi: No!

Sean: Why?

Bodi: What Why?

Sean: Why don't you want to let go of me?

Bodi: Because I don't want to let go of you!

Sean: ........

Bodi: Sean, Sean Albrecht! Look at me!

Bodi almost shouts while Sean keeps quiet, is still facing the door and Bodi is still behind him holding his wrist. They stay in that position for a while in silence.

Sean: Bodi, you have to let go of me

Bodi: I said, I don't want to let go of you, Sean.

Sean: fine then

Sean turned to face Bodi and pulled his hand back. He pulled Bodi's waist against him with his right hand and his left hand on the back of Bodi's head. Sean kisses Bodi aggressively, ravishing his lips violently and forcing them to open so his tongue could enter inside Bodi's warm cavern.

Bodi reciprocates the action in the same manner. Kissing Sean hungrily and torridly savoring each other's taste. No one wanted to stop until they were almost out of breath and needed some air.

While panting and chasing their breaths, they connected their foreheads while looking at each other's swollen lips.

Sean: I told you to let go of me, but you didn't listen

Bodi: And I'll tell you again, I don't want to let go of you!

Sean: Are you sure about that?

Bodi: Yes, I'm sure

Sean: Until when Bodi? asked Sean, Bodi remained quiet and didn't answer.

Sean shut his eyes when he didn't hear an answer from Bodi. He let go of Bodi and turned his back on him.

"Go freshen up and you can leave after if you want. I remember I have an important meeting for today." Sean then went downstairs, picked up his phone, wallet, and car key then left the Villa.

Bodi was left alone in the room and looked at his phone with irritation. He sat on the edge of the bed covering his face with his palms and lap supporting his elbows. His mind is messed up pretty bad.

Bodi runs his fingers through his hair and then falls flat on the bed.

"What's his problem? Why is he acting like that? Ugh! It's frustrating!" He ruffled his hair and then grabbed the pillow to cover his face. "It smells like you, Sean," he mumbles and hugs the pillow tightly.

"After a while, Bodi took a shower and changed his clothes. Sean's clothes are a bit bigger for him but he likes them. As if Sean was enveloping him. Bodi can't find any lip balm on Sean's table so he opens the drawer one by one and finds a small red box instead of lip balm. Out of curiosity, Bodi opened the box.

"Woahh! What a beautiful and extremely elegant ring. Oh, and an initial letter on it “BS” maybe this is the initials of his fiancee." Bodi felt a pang in his chest thinking that Sean has already a fiancee.

"But why am I being like this? Ahh, Bodi, you're such an idiot!" Bodi mumbles and returns the ring to the box and puts it back in its original place and completely forgets the lip balm. He walked out of the room and went downstairs, grabbed the key to Sean's big bike, and locked the door.

Bodi got to the Albrecht Villa last night through a taxi and he doesn't want to stay there any longer. Bodi can use Sean's big bike as Sean permitted him. Yes, Bodi has full access throughout Sean's villa and allowed him to use his property including the cars and his big bike.

"On the other hand, Sean drove and drove until he finally reached the seaside. He doesn't have any meetings, it's just an excuse to get away from Bodi as he feels stuffy and was afraid he might do something to Bodi that he will regret after.

Sean strolled along on the beach thinking about some things that keep on bothering his mind. "Just who the hell put cocaine on Bodi's shipments and framed me up?" Sean kicked the pebbles and continued to stroll.

"I never once thought of harming you, Bodi. How can I do that to you? You are the most precious person in my life. How can I hurt you when I love you the most? When your happiness is my happiness as well?" Sean thought while sitting on the sand and just watching at the horizon when his phone rang.

"Hello, mom,"

"Hello, honey, how's my baby boy?" Mrs. Albrecht Whitlock on the line

"Mom, stop calling me baby boy, I'm already 29 years old mom." - Sean

"Even if you are 50 or 60 you are still my baby, okay?"

"Nevermind, so what is it this time, mom?

"Come here in the US, I want to introduce you to someone."

"Mom, stop it! I'm not gonna meet anyone, okay?"

"Okay, but I miss my baby so much. When will I see my baby again? Ohh! Maybe when I'm dying." Mrs. Albrecht Whitlock fakes her cries.

"Come on mom, here we go again, fine I will be there the next day, alright?" Sean rolled his eyes.

"Yehey! You're the best baby, I love you, baby boy. Bye-bye, muahhh muahhh!" Mrs. Albrecht with obvious excitement.

"Mom's acting weird again." Thought Sean after ending the call. "Haish! Why did I even agree with her? I'm sure she was planning on something again.
