"Kong, are you fine?" Arthit asked concerned, as he stared at Kongpob's pale face
"I don't think so" Kongpob replied in a tiny voice
"Are you scared of flights? Or are you not well?" Arthit asked
"I'm scared of heights, so yeah, the first option" Kongpob replied
"You should have told me, I would have done something about it" arthit said sighing
"Like what? You would have asked the pilot to drive the plane till Korea instead, since it has wheels?" Kongpob asked sarcastically
"You would never leave your sarcasm in any situation, would you?" Arthit mumbled, wondering what to now do
Kongpob on the other hand felt uncomfortable, he didn't feel good inside, he felt awful and sick, his eyes felt droopy, as he slowly put his head on arthit's shoulder
Arthit flinched by the sudden action, he looked at Kongpob, breathing heavily, he indeed looked sick, arthit put his hand over the others shoulder, slightly patting his head
Kongpob hummed at the feeling, he surprisingly felt
"Better" kongpob mumbled
"Huh?" Arthit asked, not catching his words
Kongpob backed away, making arthit furrow his eyebrows in confusion, before Kongpob slowly lifted the separation hand handle between their seats and scooted closer to arthit
Placing his head on his shoulder again, Kongpob closed his eyes, sighing in satisfaction, arthit on the other hand, had a tint of blush on his cheeks
Slowly and hesitantly, he put his hand around Kongpob's waist, pulling him a little closer as kongpob happily snuggled in his shoulder, not able to hide the smile that played on his lips
Arthit turned away, staring outside the window, the smile never leaving his lips as well, as he tried to hide it by biting his lips but failed, making Kongpob smile wider, who noticed it all
____________________
They were an hour away from their destination, kongpob was soundly sleeping on arthit's shoulder, while he was reading a book he had bought along
The scene looked pretty domestic, anyone out there could easily assume that the two were dating or even assume them to be married due to how comfortable they both looked, as if this was something they would on a normal day do
The old lady, who was seated beside Kongpob, smiled at the both of them, admiring the said domestic scene before she spoke up in a soft voice
"Is he scared of flights?"
Arthit's eyes left the book and stopped at the old lady, before he nodded, with a small polite smile
"It's beautiful to see, how caring you are for your husband" she replied, smiling
Not only arthit's cheeks but also his ear turned red at the remark, husband? The word kept repeating itself in his head
Arthit knew he should deny, Kongpob wasn't his husband, but somehow no words fell out of his mouth, probably because he was too surprised, or because he didn't very much object the idea
Whatever the reason was, arthit just returned the lady a nervous smile, who then shifted her attention back to her own book
Arthit's interest from the story in his hands was long gone, and all he could now think of was, kongpob
Kongpob, my husband? Do we look like a couple right now? Arthit asked himself unconsciously blushing at the thought

"Maybe that would be the best idea" arthit suggested
"But, I think that would be too common, why don't we try something new?" Kongpob asked
"Because Mr sutthalik, we are short on time, due to our previous ideas getting leaked, we had to start this project all over again, we don't have enough time to think of something above expectations, so the best we can do is try to not disappoint" arthit explained
"Hmm, I give it to you on that one" kongpob replied, nodding at him
"Thank you" arthit slightly grinned, bowing his head just a centimetre
They looked around a little more, discussing the pros and con's, the budget they should go on keeping in their mind and how the project was most likely to come out as
Setting up a new restraunt wasn't easy after all, both arthit's and Kongpob's companies were collaborating, starting a new chain of restraunts, the first would open in Thailand, and the second here in Korea
Noticing that it was getting dark, arthit glanced at his watch, it was already seven in the evening, he was exhausted after the travel and working all day, as he decided to now head to their hotel
"Mr sutthalik, I think its enough for today, we can always start a little earlier tomorrow" arthit suggested
"Oh sure!" Kongpob nodded, smiling at the other
And with that said, they walked towards the taxi that arthit had booked earlier, and were ready to drive to the hotel, when arthit suddenly asked
"Do you want to have dinner somewhere outside or back at the hotel?"
"Somewhere nice, let's go somewhere" kongpob replied
"And where Mr sutthalik?" Arthit chuckled
"I don't like that, call me Kong, kongy would work too though" kongpob teased him, as he passed him a flirtatious wink
"Shut up" arthit hissed
Instructing the driver to drive them to a famous restraunt nearby, they decided to spend a little more time outside, before crashing at their beds in their respective rooms
_____________________
"This is pretty" Kongpob whispered
"Indeed is" arthit whispered back, admiring the surroundings
Walking further in, they took a seat at a table placed at the corner, not too many people were present at the moment, which made it rather peaceful
"Good evening sir, what can I get for you?" A waitress softly asked
Noting their orders, she asked them to wait for a couple of minutes till their food arrives
The restraunt had a group of boys sitting on the little stage at the corner, one of them was singing while the others played instruments, and suddenly the song changed
It was arthit's favourite song, the one he sung for apple on Valentine's day, the song that he now hated, as it reminded him of her, of what he didn't want to be reminded
"That's my favourite song" Kongpob chirped, shifting his attention to the music
I'm at a party I don't wanna be at
And I don't ever wear a suit and tie, I
Wonderin' if I could sneak out the back
Nobody's even lookin' me in the eyes
And then you take my hand
Finish my drink, say, shall we dance?
Hell yeah
You know I love ya, did I ever tell ya?
You make it better like that
Don't think I fit in at this party
Everyone's got too much to say, yeah
I always feel like I'm nobody, mmm
Who wants to fit in anyway?
'Cause I don't care when I'm with my baby, yeah
All the bad things dissapear
And you're making me feel like maybe I'm somebody
I can deal with the bad nights
When I'm with my baby, yeah
Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm
'Cause I don't care as long as you just hold me near
You can take me anywhere
And you're making me feel like I'm loved by somebody
I can deal with the bad nights
When I'm with my baby, yeah
Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm
For the first time in the last two years, arthit smiled to this song, for the first time in the last two years, arthit didn't think of Apple as this song played, because all he could see was Kongpob, for the first time in the last two years, arthit felt satisfied, for the first time in the last two years, arthit felt complete, for the first time in last two years, arthit felt that he was in love, with the very person sitting right in front of him, and arthit finally knew, he was in love
Arthit was in love with kongpob
I purple you 💜
