Noah patted the dolphin he was riding, and it understood which direction Noah wanted to go from the pats. It slowly, carefully slid towards Levi until Noah was in arms reach of Levi.
“Or would you prefer to ride together?” Noah very thoughtfully suggested.
Levi’s dark eyes suddenly lit up into resplendent pools of blue. The gloom replaced by intense heat.
“Ah, ah, Blackie, see that excitement? Gosh, he is just like a little kid!”
(/≧ω\) ♥
‘Host… I feel sorry for you.’ (눈_눈)
Afraid that his darling would change his mind, Levi immediately jumped right behind him onto the dolphin. What ‘didn’t know how to mount’? This bro was clearly a pro!
Levi wrapped both of his arms around Noah’s waist and pulled the other closer until he was sitting very snugly in Levi’s embrace.
Noah was at first bewildered and exasperated, then it all turned into amusement. Who knew that riding a dolphin could make such a big man so nervous? He was practically clinging to him, Noah, for dear life!
‘Pfft, really like a little kid!‘
Noah bit his lips to prevent a giggle from escaping and decided to feign stupidity. Let this elder brother keep his manly pride.
Blackie: ‘…No need to feign stupidity, you are stupid enough as it is.’ ಥ‿ಥ
At any rate, it’s not like Noah was suffering due to his brother-in-law’s tight nerves. The arms the other had around Noah’s waist were rather comfortable, neither too loose nor too tight. Yes, Levi’s chest was practically glued to his back, but that hard 8-pack of his wasn’t uncomfortable. It just felt warm and sturdy.
Levi agreed – ‘Ah, ah, his baby fit into his arms so comfortably! ♥ It’s a perfect fit!’
Wasn’t that proof that the two of them were absolutely made for each other?
Blackie: ‘I applaud your very conclusive proof. All the scientists should learn from you – if they were half as good as you, they would have long proven that the world was flat.’ 👍
Actually, feeling that godly 8-pack continually rubbing against his back made Noah think that perhaps he too should hit the gym? Or maybe not, what would he do with an 8-pack? Who was he, the asexual, forever-alone dude, trying to impress? Naah, that time and effort were better spent elsewhere.
Noticing how his baby wasn’t showing any adverse reactions to their current position, Levi fully relaxed and contentedly put his chin on Noah’s shoulder.
Ah, it felt sooo good! His baby’s body was so soft and flexible! So warm! Even smelled heavenly!
This was the meaning of life!
As the dolphin started to swim around, Levi closed his eyes in bliss. Even if he died here and now, he’d die without any regrets.
No, wait… of course, he’d die with regrets! What would happen to his baby if he died??? Even if he put aside the matter of him never getting into his baby’s pants, if he was gone, wouldn’t some other bastard eat his little cabbage?!? No way!! He absolutely couldn’t die before his baby!!!
On the sidelines, Trey watched the two like a hawk, but inside, his heart was bleeding. He wanted to hug the little one too! He wanted to rub his nose into that soft hair too! QAQ
Bodyguard life was so hard! Not only was he unable to play with his little employer, he even had to watch a maniac brother-in-law shoving dog food down his throat 24/7!!!
The large dolphin that the duo was riding on very happily glided near the surface. All the other dolphins joined it in a race, surrounding Noah and Levi from both sides.
Sometimes the dolphins would dive deeper into the water, sometimes they would fully surface, and sometimes they would even jump through the air.
Noah was having the time of his life, feeling like he was on a rollercoaster ride. It was just that…
“Geez, Blackie, what is that hard thing brother-in-law is carrying in his pocket? It keeps poking my back.” Noah, too preoccupied with a lovely dolphin ride to pay it any serious thought, casually asked. “Should I tell him to put it away?”
“Don’t tell him to put it away!” Blackie was dying inside from second-hand embarrassment.
Noah raised his eyebrows at the system’s adamant rejection, “Why?”–he snickered– “You make it sound like it’s his dick or something.”
‘…What if I told you that, indeed, it is?’ Blackie took a long mental breath before responding, “I am just trying to spare you from the embarrassment. Because it’s…”–Blackie struggled to explain–“…it’s the dolphin’s fin.”
Blackie: (°ㅂ°╬) ‘This pig of a brother-in-law! You totally owe me one!!’
Noah: “…isn’t the dolphin’s fin behind brother-in-law?” (눈_눈) ‘Oi, oi, do you take me for a fool?’
Blackie’s bullshitting ability was not to be underestimated, “Doesn’t the hard thing only poke you when you slide back? That’s because each time that happens, your brother-in-law moves back to sit behind the fin to accommodate your fat ass.”
“…for real?” Noah squinted his eyes in doubt.
“Yep.”
“Gosh, brother-in-law is so considerate!” (ᗒᗜᗕ)
Blackie nearly choked on non-existent saliva “…Yep. Very…”–he struggled to spit out the last word–“…considerate.”
“Thanks for telling me! I wouldn’t have even known he was so thoughtful.” Noah nodded. Thanks should be given where due.
Blackie: ‘…ok… now I’m starting to feel a bit guilty.’ (・―・)
If Levi had been a part of this mental conversation, then he would have very adamantly scolded the lying AI, “And you should! How could you so shamelessly trick my poor baby?!”
(ꐦ  ̄︿ ̄)
Blackie: “Whose sake do you think I’m doing this for?!”
(ノ꒪Д꒪)ノ︵ ┻━┻
“Hmph! You think a man of my intellect wouldn’t secure himself in case of a boner that he totally saw coming? Remember when I was buying swimming trunks? You know what else I bought? – A perfect excuse. What’s poking my baby in the back might be my dick, but I am indeed carrying a hard stick in my pocket.”
( ゚Д゚) “That…! Is actually fucking genius!”
“Mn.” (¬‿¬)
“But what did you actually buy?”
“What do you think?”
🤔 “…A dildo?”
“No! Why would I buy a dildo?? The only thing going up that sweet little ass is me!!” (ꐦ▔皿▔)
“You are a pervert, and it’s a hard stick! It was the obvious choice!” ╮(╯∀╰)╭
“And how would being caught with a dildo be better than being caught with a boner?!”
“…alright. I see your point. Then, what DID you buy?”
“A selfie stick.”
“Dude… I would rather be caught with a boner than a selfie stick!!” 😂
(눈_눈) “…and this is why I’ll be happily riding into the sunset with my baby while you stay forever alone.”
Blackie who actually has no comeback:
(ノಥ益ಥ)ノ ┻━┻
“I was wrong about you,” Levi apologized very sincerely.Then magnanimously added, “I forgive you for your transgressions. Actually, that from before…totally doesn’t count as a first kiss, so no need to worry. I won’t be eating you for lunch.”The conversation partner, whom Levi was talking to as he waited for Noah to fetch the unicorn float from his room, was naturally, a dolphin: ‘if you are apologetic… please… just get off of my back already– No, wait, the recipient of the kiss wasn’t even me!!’ QAQ
“No, let her sleep some more,” Levi spoke resolutely.However, the finality in his tone didn’t stop Noah from raising an objection, “Brother… it's nearly 12 o’clock, I'm pretty sure she is awake…”Levi’s arms around Noah’s waist unconsciously tightened, “But what if she isn't and your message disturbs her nap?”Noah… couldn’t argue with that. There was indeed a possibility of that happening... it’s just that the chance was so low!
By the time Noah had climbed back into the bungalow, the ringtone had long stopped. Though Communicators were waterproof, Noah really didn’t want to get sand and salt inside of his, so he had left it in his room when he changed.After putting it back on his wrist, and going through user authentication, he could finally see a missed call and several received text messages.The messages all came from his sister an hour ago. “Oh, sister is awake after all.”The first message was: “Mom told me Levi dropped in this morn
Remembering that Case was still waiting on the line, Noah resumed the call very apologetically, “Um… sorry, bro, my brother-in-law shot the idea down,” then he quickly added, “he is rather shy with strangers. You must have heard all about Astar Levi before, he isn’t really a social butterfly…”Hearing no response from the other end, Noah felt even worse about the whole matter, “Sorry…” Noah spoke tentatively, “But, we can go have some fun another day! My brother-in-law has taken several vacation days for this upcoming wedding, and I doubt he’d be spending all of them with me. He and sis will probably ditch me soon to go on a date somewhere.”
Levi kicked their table over to its side and ducked behind it with Noah in his bosom.The eruption coming from only two tables behind theirs reached their position within a moment.Trey’s shield had not finished forming before it was brutally shattered with a resounding crack, knocking him off his feet to the ground.Abruptly, all noises were drowned out by cracking of the concrete, the sizzling of water and hissing of steam. And then, a moment later, a hair-raising shriek of agony came from the center of the eruption, which was imm
Levi’s eyes burned holes in Noah’s back, completely forgetting the dangerous situation they were in, for in Levi’s mind, there was no situation direr than his darling disliking him, fearing him, staying at a distance.Did his baby notice the reluctance with which he had saved Trey? To be so coldblooded towards someone who was on their side… wouldn’t he have looked cruel and heartless to his kitten?? No one would want to keep a rabid dog by their side that might bite them at any moment with no provocation!And then, even his murderous aura had reared its ugly head. Putting the final nail on his coffin. His carefully craft
“Brother!” Noah turned his desperate gaze towards Levi, “Your power… can it target a region instead of a specific target?”Levi nodded urgently. Right now, even if his kitten asked whether he was retarded, he’d nod his head excitedly for a single smile. Anything to have his precious treasure looking at him with undivided attention, looking at him as if he, Levi, was the center of his world.Levi searched Noah’s gaze, but the other’s eyes were still as clear and pure as before. As if nothing had changed. Within, he found no fear, disgust, reservation, nor coldness. The only thing he saw within those larg
After several more moments of being smothered inside Levi’s arms, Noah was starting to realize that if he didn’t initiate their separation, his silly brother-in-law wouldn’t let go. So, he very patiently tried coaxing the other, “I’m fine now, brother…” – So, you can let me go.The other, naturally, didn’t catch his implied meaning.Noah tried again, “We came out of it whole all thanks to your quick reaction! How did you know something was amiss?”It was at this moment tha
