A fatherly, indulgent top who’s been in love with his best friend since childhood without realizing he’s gay x a bad-tempered, clingy, scheming flirt
Older childhood friends, growing-up romance | Cozy, slow-burn everyday life
Both are each other’s first and only love. Told in third person.
Top’s POV:
The first time I met Fang Jianan, I was three. He threw himself into my arms and cried because he wanted the lollipop in my hand, so I gave it to him. Now I’m twenty-three, and he’s still crying in my arms, saying he wants that pink convertible. So I bought it.
What can I say? He’s my best friend for life.
Bottom’s POV:
What do I do when my husband insists he’s straight?
My husband and I grew up together. We’ve been childhood sweethearts since we were little. I’m not exaggerating when I say he raised me like I was his wife. Most people don’t even dote on their wives as much as he dotes on me.
From the time I was very little, I knew that when we grew up, I was going to be his wife.
But when we were finally old enough to date, he told me he was straight, that we’d be best friends for life, and that I shouldn’t get into all that weird stuff like homosexuality.
Are you kidding me? Who taught you to treat your wife like a buddy?
At first, I just wanted to slowly turn up the heat and bring him around. Honestly, I don’t even know what I’m trying to turn around. This guy is already bent into a corkscrew, he just won’t admit it.
But no matter what I tried to seduce him, this idiot didn’t react at all. I’d show a little leg or bare my waist in front of him, and he’d scold me for not taking care of myself while pulling my clothes back down. I’d pout and ask him for a kiss. He kissed me, then said, “You’ve got sweet lips, buddy.”
Buddy my ass! Are you ever going to stop?
He’s spoiled me rotten. I’ve always gotten whatever I wanted. I’ve never had to put up with this kind of treatment.
A friend suggested I pretend to be dating someone else. Then we’d see if he got jealous.
I took the advice and pretended to go on a date and shopping with him. Sure enough, my husband couldn’t sit still. He rushed over angrily, pulled apart our hands, which weren’t even holding each other’s, and shielded me behind him.
Just as I was secretly thrilled, my righteous husband told my friend, “My buddy is straight! Don’t you dare try anything with him!”
Me: ****
This time, I was really about to pass out from anger.
You’re going to lose your wife, you big idiot!
A few more warnings:
The top really is a complete idiot and firmly believes he’s straight. The bottom is a little spoiled around him and depends on him wholeheartedly. Expect plenty of the top’s “straight guy” comments and the bottom acting like a doting wife. At heart, it’s just two silly childhood friends falling in love. May this couple stay together forever!
