The Hills

━•✦•━•✦•━

2 months have passed since you made the decision that would mean one of the biggest turning points in your life. You didn’t feel good or bad about it, it was just the only option you had at the time; of course, you could go out on the street and start looking for job vacancies like crazy, but it wouldn’t be the easiest thing, right?

Plus, what’s better than getting paid to fuck?

The first weeks had been boring; nothing out of the ordinary had happened other than a couple of jobs with some shy pretty girls, but it still wasn’t enough, since Heejin was in charge of making sure that you both didn’t starve. But like everything made with love and dedication, it began to turn into a snowball that went down a mountain; after a month your jobs multiplied, and you had gone from having a client every two weeks to having 3 to 5 per week. Of course, this meant significant economic growth for you for the simple fact that the more reputation and good reviews you had, the more you could take for each job, and of course, a relief for your roommate, who was slowly descending into madness from all the bills she had to pay on her own.

Your growth was not only reflected in the economic aspect, but also in your status on the allegedly illegal platform of gigolos in which you were. Like any service platform, the reputation was based on a review system, stars and anonymous opinions of the clients, and to your surprise, by the time you were two months old, you were averaging almost five stars, which, according to Heejin, was a rare thing to see on that network. Honestly, you didn’t expect such success, since you didn’t exactly consider yourself an Adonis in bed, but apparently there was something about you that all your clients always liked without exception, of course you weren’t going to complain, it was a difficult opportunity to ignore, and you would make sure to squeeze it one hundred percent.

Everything was going uphill for you, you had bought a new television, a new phone, and many other luxuries that with your previous job would have been impossible for you to buy, you could even afford to give Heejin a lot of generous gifts that, of course, were rewarded with a good night of fucking. You felt happy and comfortable, and you could tell that your partner was too, there was nothing more important to you than that.

It was exhausting, yes, but money was everything to you, besides, what work is not exhausting?

Your week had been pretty busy; you had 4 clients, and on top of that you had to accompany Heejin to do some errands in the city center almost every day until today, Saturday. You both arrived at the apartment around noon, and the first thing you did was throw yourself face down on the couch, with exhausted legs and your eyes heavy with sleep.

“God, you’re so dramatic, we just went to the hairdresser,” Heejin said, shaking her head as she walked straight into the kitchen.

“Yes, but to go to the hairdresser we had to walk all over the mall, and before we got there, walk for two blocks just because you couldn’t find a store with nice clothes,” you answered, to see her while she drank a glass of water, “Oh, and not only that, you made me get up at 7am!”

“You need to get up early and do some exercise, don’t be a wimp,” you wanted to throw a cushion at her, but deep down you knew she was right.

“Not all of us do 7 damn minutes of planking, some of us are mortal,” you settled into the couch, lying on your back with your head resting on an armband.

“Did you say something?” Heejin frowned and tilted her head, “I only hear baby cries."

”…Fuck you"

“Oh yeah, fuck me” suddenly, a smile and an excited expression formed on her face.

“No”

“Ah come on, don’t be mad at me,” Heejin came out of the kitchen and walked towards you, to straddle your abdomen, “I’m just kidding, you’re not a wimp or a crybaby,” she leaned into you and cupped your cheeks with her hands, spreading little kisses all over your face.

You were really trying to look upset, but having Heejin in care bear mode on top of you didn’t help much; after a few seconds a smile formed on your face, and with it your whole performance was spoiled.

“There you go, I knew you couldn’t resist my love,” she said, with the most beautiful eye smile you had ever seen. You could feel your heart completely melting.

“God, I love you, did you know that?”

“Yeah I know. I love you too, wimp,” you were about to complain, but you were silenced by the crash of your lips, this time sinking into a slow, loving kiss.

You could have been kissing for a long time, if it wasn’t for your phone vibrating with a notification that you knew perfectly well, since you had set a tone exclusively for that. You broke the kiss, turned to the right and grabbed your phone from the coffee table to check it.

“What is it?” Heejin asked, now with her head resting on your chest.

You took a moment to open the app and see the notification; indeed, it was a new job, but…

“No fucking way…”

You froze for a few seconds, and your eyes were lost in nothingness trying to assimilate what you had just read.

“What? Hey!” Heejin shook you a few times to get you out of the trance. “Something bad happened?

"You… just read it,” you put the phone in her hand, and Heejin sat on your abdomen to carefully read your client’s information.

“HANNAM THE HILL?” she yelled, and then covered her mouth.

“Uhm… that’s what it says,” you still didn’t quite know what to say, Hannam The Hill was the popular name of one of the richest and most luxurious neighborhoods in all of Seoul, where only big celebrities, high-ranking businessmen and maybe gangsters lived. And yes… your client was one of those three.

“You know how big this is, don’t you?” Heejin pointed at your phone screen as she looked at you, still impressed, “She’s rich, if she likes you, she will recommend you among her contacts. You can become an escort for millionaire women!”

“What the fuck… I… I’m not ready for that.”

“Oh come on! You have nothing to lose, besides, we would be talking about a lot of money.”

“You don’t know that.”

“Honey, women like her and me will give anything for a good cock, the difference is that I have one for free,” Heejin winked at you, “But that’s not the point, the point is, you have talent, and if you go with the right mindset, you’ll have her in your pocket.”

And there you were, again immersed in a choice that could change the course of your life, more difficult and screwed up than the previous one. There hadn’t been such a problem last time, after all, they were girls of your same social status, so you felt comfortable and without pressure, but this situation was different; you never imagined having to go to one of the most luxurious neighborhoods in Seoul, to fuck a wealthy woman and take the “risk” of becoming her personal fucktoy.

Of her, and if Heejin was right, of many more.

<> You asked yourself in your head, without expecting an answer from your subconscious. You were terrified of all the possible scenarios, but it was an opportunity that you couldn’t pass up. You had to take a leap of faith. You closed your eyes for a moment and took a deep breath, letting out a sigh.

“Agh… fuck it, I’ll do it.”

“Yaaay!” Heejin celebrated with lively applause and a big smile on her face.

“What if it’s a setup to sell me into slavery to Indonesian smugglers?”

Heejin’s smile immediately faded, just as her palms stopped in midair.

“I’m going to kick your ass.”

“Sorry, I’m just nervous.”

“Everything will be alright baby, be positive, okay?” Heejin leaned towards you and caressed your hair affectionately.

“Fine” you gave up with a sigh, giving the girl above you a little peck on the lips.

“By the way, when is the session supposed to be?”

“Uh…” You took your phone from her hand and opened the notification again to see the date, “Fuck, today at 8 pm. I have to get ready.”

“Honey, you still have time. Let’s just relax a bit,” Heejin took the phone out of your hands and put it on the table next to the couch, then snuggled into your chest. You couldn’t say no, so you just wrapped your arms around her and took a deep breath, a few minutes later, you both fell asleep.

6 hours later. 7:14PM.
