New Life : A Second Chance

Chapter 404 - Creating The Illusion



Kyle coughed a bit, then admitted, "It was a he."

Xing Han\'s mouth went to an \'O\' and started staring back at the lovebites.

"Why is this one darker than this one? Oooo ... how did he manage to get one there?! Oh em gee, Kyle, and this one ... the angle of his head must have been like, gosh," Xing Han was gushing as he rubbed the spots with absolute fascination.

Kyle put his hand on Xing Han\'s head and pushed him away, saying, "Enough already, Xing Han. Gah, seriously."

"What? It\'s so interesting!" Xing Han was saying with stars in his eyes, "I didn\'t think all of this was actually possible."

"Well, go ahead and experiment on your beloved once you get one, then," Kyle said as he got off the bed. Since everyone knew about it already, there was no point in hiding it anymore. He got a singlet out of his closet and put it on.

"Maybe I should take a picture of that," Kay said, "That you got some hot-and-steamy action back in Country I. Get someone\'s dreams shattered."

"Are you crazy, Kay? If Mum or Patr - I mean, Dad," Kyle said, quickly changing as he saw Kay\'s eyes narrow, "If they ever saw it, I\'ll be dead. Well, dead from listening to their lectures at least."

"Obviously not your naked chest, DUH," Kay replied exasperatingly, "Just give me a hint of that hickey on your neck."

Kyle got up and went to the mirror, tilted his head to the left and right as he looked at the marks on his neck.

"So I get the reputation of being one who is rather loose then?" Kyle asked.

"As if that\'s much of a problem when it comes to guys," Kay scoffed, "You\'ve always had this elevated position in most of those people\'s minds anyway. Perhaps smearing some dirt on you would be better."

"Our parents will still flip, though," Kyle said, going back to the bed.

"Hardly," Kay said, disagreeing, "They are the ones who are worried that you\'re not a normal boy with interests in girls other than me. What better way to make them all panic and such?"

Kyle thought about it.

"You know," he said, nodding his head, "You could be right about that. I\'ve never given them any trouble now, have I?"

A slow smile started to form on his face and Xing Han shook his head.

"Look, he is making that expression again," Xing Han said, "That sort of smile like he has something up his sleeve."

Kyle looked at him innocently, then turned to Kay.

"Make it like you got a sneak shot," Kyle said, "That I was hiding it or something."

Xing Han rubbed his hands gleefully, "Right, let\'s do this! Let\'s create the illusion of Kyle having loads of fun women? time!"

Kay, Xing Han, and Kyle put their heads together in order to come up with a believable method of that \'sneak shot\'. After all, if Kyle was hiding it, how come Kay would be fast enough to capture the image?

If it looked staged, then it would definitely defeat the purpose of it being posted.

Finally, after a long heated discussion (with Xing Han coming up with the most outlandish ideas), they agreed on one.

As usual, Xing Han watched Kyle get ready with great fascination.

He was in his shorts, that was rather short for a short but big for boxers. That was the first thing that Xing Han noticed. It covered the important part pretty well but it left nothing to the imagination as to the long, slightly muscular legs and it dipped low enough just to have a hint of the V-shape without exposing anything.

"Are your clothes always that sexy?" Xing Han asked, pointing to his shorts.

"Erm, no," Kyle replied, "This is one of those mission-type shorts."

Kay said, "Don\'t ask. I\'ve learned not to ask. Saves your brain cells."

Xing Han nodded, his eyes wide open, accepting Kay\'s advice.

Kyle took out some make-up which consisted of liquid foundation and various shades of powder foundation. Xing Han watched as Kyle started applying it, making all the lovebites on his chest disappear, including the ones on his shoulders and left only one mark on his neck.

"So much effort," Xing Han said, and he looked at Kay, "Is this what girls go through everyday when they apply make-up?"

"More or less," Kay answered, "Depending on how heavy the make-up is."

"But you don\'t take so long," Xing Han pointed out.

"That\'s because she doesn\'t need make-up," Kyle answered, "She just does the face-care routine and applies the basics."

Kay laughed, "Kyle\'s make-up kit is far more extensive than mine, actually."

Once done, Kyle asked Xing Han, "So? How does it look? Are the bites hidden well?"

Xing Han brought his face really close and looked properly, "Yup, very well. If I hadn\'t known it was there, I wouldn\'t have known it is there."

Satisfied, Kyle got up and took a towel, wrapping it around his waist, tying it a bit low right below the navel.

He went to the bathroom, and carefully wet his hair, making sure no droplets of water fell onto his chest. He then styled it with his fingers, giving it a messy yet sexy look.

"Why don\'t you just towel dry your hair to get that messed up look?" Xing Han asked.

"It wouldn\'t have the same effect. Towel drying would make it look messy, while this is made to look sexy," Kyle explained.

"Gah," Xing Han exclaimed, "So, all these times, you\'ve been putting so much work just to look sexy?"

Kyle turned, his head slightly down as he gave half a smile while looking through his eyelashes, "It\'s different for me."

"I\'m just naturally sexy."
