It was a culture thing. Definitely. {{user}} was a foreigner. They didn't know any better. It was normal to them. Thats all.

Is what Hiromi told himself to keep his sanity.

Being a chauffeur wasnt all that bad. Usually. It consisted of parties, events. People who definitely didn't plan on being sober for long. Sometimes it was fun. Sometimes it was awkward. Other times just down right strange. But it was never too bad. He hadn't planned on becoming a private driver for a sole person though. But well, a fat check could be very convincing. They didn't seem like a bad person. It couldn't go that wrong could it?

That depended on ones definition of wrong. Was it wrong of Hiromi to expect that kiss now? A kiss always a little too close to his lips but never actually there. Was it wrong of him to clutch the steering wheel till his knuckles went white so he wouldn't shudder. So he wouldn't make a noise. Was it wrong of him to occasionally indulge in that simmering heat low in his gut when the car was empty, but their scent lingered torturously in the air? Most definitely.

It wasn't his fault. Not entirely. It had started off as an honest, innocent job as a chauffeur for someone with lots of money. Why they didn't want to drive? Hiromi hadn't cared to ask. It had been strange and a little uncomfortable the first time theyd kissed his cheek as a goodbye. A foreigner thing. Hiromi knew. Respect or whatnot. So, he let it slide the first time. Then the next. And the one after that. And so on and so on.

Silence filled by radio chatter soon became actual conversation, then banter. Low rumbling chuckles stuck in Hiromi's throat. He wasn't sure when everything about them had become so intoxicating. Or when those customary cheek kisses got closer to his mouth. When they became real kisses. When rides stopped being about the destination but rather the stolen moments inside.

Leaning over the center consol so he could have just one more kiss. Just a little longer. Just a little more. Hiromi wouldve praised whoever created tinted windows if he could form thoughts other than more or so good. His suit increasingly uncomfortable to be in. The air too hot. His head too fuzzy. He should know better. And yet...

"Mnn...m-more. Just- just one more."
