All Strings Attached

Chapter 16

And Win did the same

"Bright?" Win broke the silence "Have you ever lied to me?"

Bright frowned carelessly "Not really"

"Why do you rob people?" Win couldn't help but ask. "Can't you stop that"

Bright looked down at the gear of his car, not replying. Win realised thats what Bright does when the answer to his question is something that will make Win upset.

Bright took Win's hand and pressed it to his lips, looking at his face. His expressions soft.

"Whats bothering you?" Bright asked, his voice so gentle. Honesty being shown all over his face.

Win wanted to shook his head in a no but he felt weak. He wanted to shout and tell him what Gun has told him. But he just couldn't get himself to do it.

What does Gun knows about him and Bright anyway?

Bright stared at the complicated expression on his face and let go of his hand. His hand immediately went to his other wrist, taking off his watch. Win stared at his hands in confusion.

"Here" Bright said, giving back his wristwatch "You're upset because I take too many things from you right?"

"Bright" Win whispered, surprised and looked at his face, his eyebrows furrowed.

Bright looked at Win's face and saw him still frowning. Bright felt a rush of panic flowing in his heart. Why was Win still unhappy?

"You want your locket back too? I have that in my apartment " Bright asked, his voice urgent.

Win stared at him, his face still carrying worried expressions but he wasn't thinking of Gun anymore.

" Or you want coffee? I'll buy it for you?" Bright kept talking and Win put his hand on Bright's arm, stopping him.

"What are you doing?" Win whispered, making Bright stop talking.

Finally he sighed and looked at Win, defeated "Why are you unhappy? Did I do something? "

Win gave him a sad smile and shook his head.

"When you came to the garage you were smiling. It was so bright that I wanted to knock everyone out who were gawking at you" Bright replied "Now you're back and you're not smiling anymore and thats making me feel.. Weird"

Win looked down and a small smile appeared on his lips. How dare he accused Bright of something that he didn't even do.

Bright looked at Win's face and pushed himself back at his seat, feeling relieved.

"Even your smile turn me on" Bright muttered making Win chuckle

Win smiled widely and looked at his watch in his hand
"Its my favourite watch" He muttered and leaned closer to Bright, wrapping his watch back on Bright's wrist.

Bright looked down at his wrist, surprised.

Win sat back on his seat and gave Bright a wide smile.

Bright started his car again and drove off to Win's house. He stopped the car and looked at Win who took off his seatbelt and opened the car's door.

For a moment, he stopped and leaned back to Bright

Bright merely gave him a glance and said "Don't tell me you want your watch back "

Win leaned closer and held Bright's face, kissing his lips. Bright's eyes shot opened in surprise at Win's bold action, his lips froze.
