It Never Rains in Southern California

Chapter 10

"Okay okay, fine, let's see if google can think of a better one!" Jay laughs, now 5 swigs in. Jungwon's been teasing him all night about the questions he asks during their game, and how they've been so basic and never gritty.

"Oh look what we have here, a list of naughty questions. Let me see." Jay's eyes focus on the phone in front of him as he scans the article, looking for a question that would suit him.

"What's the last thing you masturbated to?" Jay smirks, "Since you wanted to get the big guns out, go ahead."

Jungwon feels the tequila in full swing when he answers, "You, washing my hair."

Jay drunkenly laughs, the sound booming out, "What, you got a hair fetish or something?"

Jungwon laughs with him and the liquid courage takes control of him as he stumbles to regain the high ground. He picks up Jay's phone from in between them and scans the list as he takes another swig and hands the bottle to Jay, who quickly downs a shot's worth.

"Are you a tits guy or an ass guy?" Jungwon reads, smirking as he sets the phone down.

Jay laughs and shoots Jungwon a look. "Neither."

Jungwon squeezes his eyes shut in embarrassment and claps a hand to his forehead, "Oh my god, that's right, forgot you loved dicks." He cackles at himself, and Jay's laughing loudly alongside him.

Laughing so much while he's this drunk makes Jungwon dizzy, but it's a good dizzy.

Jay leans back into the couch and rubs his jaw pensively as he thinks of a question, disregarding the article they were pulling from before. His movements halt as he plays with the frayed edges of the holes in his jeans.

"Have you ever been with a guy, Jungwon?"

The question seems like it had been something he wanted to ask for longer than they were playing this game.

Jungwon shakes his head, and licks his lips slowly, trying to phrase his answer correctly.

"No, but I'm..." His voice gets quieter unintentionally. "I'm not opposed to it if it were to happen." He lifts his eyes to stare into Jay's, and he feels his stomach muscles tighten.

He breaks their eye contact to clear his throat, grabbing the phone from his lap, now locked.

He holds it out for Jay, who doesn't reach for it. "0420." He replies instead, and Jungwon unlocks the phone, returning to the list because he doesn't trust himself to come up with his own questions right now.

Jungwon reads over the article, skimming the sentences with varying degrees of sexual connotations. He decides that he might as well just fucking go for it, what does he have to lose?

"Are you more dominant or submissive?"

Jay smirks and takes another drink from the bottle, way past the point that the taste would make him recoil in disgust. "What do you think?" He offers, as more of a challenge than an answer.

Jungwon smirks back, his confidence returning as he holds Jay's stare. "I think you're submissive."

Jay's eyebrows raise and he licks the corner of his mouth. "And what makes you think that, Jungwon?"

Jungwon's full of adrenaline from the tequila and the fact that this conversation derailed in such a way and is fast-tracked for a direction he never could've imagined it'd go.

The alcohol makes him flirty and playful, like usual, so he doubles down. "I just think you put on this tough guy act for everybody but when it comes down to it, you like to get fucked too."
