Kongpob's POV
I woke up to the sound of my phone ringing , forcing myself to get up and quickly answering before it woke P'Arthit up , my voice sounded groggy from sleeping so i tried clearing my throat without letting the other person hear on the other side of the phone
"He-ehem-hello"
a woman on the other side introduced herself and the company , as soon as i heard i gently and slowly got of the bed with soft sound of the rustling from the bed sheets , trying not to stir up the other who's fast asleep "ahh yes this is Kongpob Suthiluck"
The door creaks as he opens it not bothered to close , leaving it a gap between the door. He towards the living room.
She talked and i listened ,1 minute later i had a big smile on my face and almost let out screams of excitement "thank you khap" i thanked her politely and hung up the phone
i did it...i want to tell P'Arthit but he seems tired so i'll tell him when it's time for him to wake up.
"Kong" a sudden voice startled Kongpob "did i wake you up?" rushing towards his lover who was rubbing his eyes adjusting his eyesight as he just stood next to the door that leads to their bedroom
"who called?" it hit Kongpob that Arthit might have woken up from his phone ringing he feels bad but there's nothing we can do about that now "P'Arthit you don't want to sleep more" it was still early and for Arthit who hates waking up early though he does have work later..
"no i'm all awake now , it's fine" Arthit walked past Kongpob and went to the kitchen opening the fridge letting the bright light inside shine "i'll make breakfast"
"even though i don't make breakfast much because i used to always wake up a bit late , but now it seems i won't be getting up late anymore" applying that Kongpob is his alarm
Kongpob got what he meant so he took steps closer to his lover who was going through their fridge for the ingredients. The sound of a gasp came from Arthit , turns out that he wasn't expecting a back hug "Kongpob i can't work like this" trying to argue back
I didn't listen and just kept hugging as i kissed him gently on his nape "Ko-Kong" moaning the name of his lover who kept kissing him softly
i talked to him as i kept giving him fluttering kisses in between "i already have something-*kiss* in my mind *kiss* for what *kiss* i can have *kiss* for breakfast *kiss*"
I know he was holding in his moans, i instantly stopped and looked at his face , he had was biting on his lips to not bring out his voice which irritated me because the sound of his angelic moans are the good part so i turned his face toward me planting my lips on his which got him to react
We were running out of breathe so i stopped and looked at his flushed face
*pang*
P'Arthit had suddenly pushed me back hitting the counter that was behind me when ha had the chance "couldn't you have been gentler" i said
I was heading to the living and flopped on the couch but i wasn't the one who moved there on my own , P'Arthit had pushed me with all his strength to the point where my body just slumped on the couch "now sit here and don't move until i finished preparing the food"
"yes darling" were the words that came out of my mouth, I couldn't help it by saying them. Then I remembered what Tew said "newlyweds"
It brought a smile to my face, it really feels like a wife is making me breakfast, this thought made me start chuckling
Though he's a man, he sometimes acts like a wife. I bet he would be furious if I called him a wife since he's a man.
I look at my lover at the kitchen making breakfast for us both, he didn't tell me not to stare right? , i have no idea if he knows i'm staring or not seeing that he's just doing his own things and not once is he yelling at me or nagging.
I'll tell him about the job when were eating if i tell him now i'll be bothered and worried if he got himself cut or hurt due to the shock from my news and hopefully not get mad that I kept this from him.
As time went by i realised he was finished when he yelled my name
"Kongpob , it's done"
Kongpob gets up and sits down at the table seeing his beloved preparing the table as he waits "enjoy" Arthit says as he sits down getting ready to eat...
should i tell him now? ...
"P'Arthit"
"hmmm...what is there something wrong with the food?"
i quickly correct his thinking "no why would you say that , you're cooking's always the best reminds of the times when you cooked for me" he laughed
"yea" said when he all of a sudden stopped laughing. I realised i had hit a deep wound when he had that face of someone who was thinking of something nostalgic "i'm sorry" i felt the need to apologise
"don't apologise because were together now" we might be together now after so many things happened but for those 2 months that we were together it was the most precious memories that couldn't be taken away from us before everything else happened and i'm sure i'm not the only one who thinks like that.
trying to change the subject i take his hand in to mine "P'Arthit" he stops and looks at me "Kongpob are you okay?"
"you haven't cheated on me or something right?" i almost choked on plain thin air , how could he think like that? it's far from what i'm about to tell him "P'Arthit i'm sorry but you're an idiot" he was about to hit me because the whole time we've known each other be it then or now i've never called him an idiot but i couldn't help it because he totally is an idiot for thinking that. He trusts me though right?
"what did you say" i took his hand that was about to hit me and held it in my hand "why the hell would i ever cheat on you , don't you trust me?" he sighed with the sense of relief and a bit of anger "i'm not sorry for calling you an idiot"
"shut up ...if that's not it then what do you want to tell me that you look so serious about?" is he trying to say I'm not the serious type or what? Anyway i prepare myself by inhaling...exhaling "I was at a job interview-" he didn't even let me continue my sentence and just bombarded me with questions..
"what? when was this?..what's the job? ...why didn't you tell me..."
trying to cut in and make him stop was hard it's as if he didn't stop to catch a breath "P'...P'....P'Arthit" i yelled
he was out of breath from all the talking , just saying i was at a job interview can get him this excited...
Arthit's POV
"i was at a job interview-"
huh what? why have i never heard about this, i thought when i heard those words. I didn't realise it but i spouted out all the questions that i was curious about , i could see his lips moving and a faded voice saying what sounded like my name but i couldn't stop "P'Arthit"
The yell of my own name made me stop "will you listen to me first , i finally have the courage to tell you" why is he so scared to tell me about this? why did he need courage?
Is this job dangerous?
"That phone call i was having which woke you up was about my interview" he looked anxious and happy at the same time if that makes sense "They accepted me , despite my criminal records" he said it in such a forced tone but i dismissed it and got angry at him for another reason
I could tell he knows what i'm thinking because i had a displeased expression on my face "why didn't you tell me you had a interview yesterday? i'm happy for you Kong but i would have loved to give you courage yesterday even if you made it without listening to my encouraging words"
"i'm sorry but i wouldn't want you to know if i didn't get it" this didn't make me feel better at all, this is actually made me lose my appetite "do you think i would disappointed if you failed an interview"
He looked down not wanting to look at my eyes getting me irritated "Kong look at me"
He listened though it was very slow movements bringing his head up "I'm your lover aren't i? i would like to know you have more respect for me than that , don't look down on me" he tried to cut in but i wasn't done " if you fail i'd still be proud because you're making an effort not just for us but for you, and i'm right here to support you all the way"
For a moment i didn't see Kongpob but rather a pouting puppy, i think i hallucinated. I flicked his forehead out of irritation but then planted a light kiss at the same place when he looked so confused to my action, adding more confusion.
Arthit looked at the confused boy and asked "so anyway what type of work is this?"
I waited until he heard me, the once confused face now looks nervous. Whats with the different expressions today and so early in the morning.
"it's at a construction site?" did i hear right "what?"
"construction site" he whispered , he looks like a kicked puppy. but why at a construction site he could get hurt at any time
"Kongpob i know you're strong but you're sure about this job"
"even if i don't like it that much you think anywhere else would accept someone like me?" it frustrates that nobody else see's how amazing this guys is all they focus on is what it says on paper instead of the real person in front, but in a way we have to understand those people who don't accept it. We have to accept that fact because it's part of reality.
"If you get hurt i'll hurt you more myself" i said it in a serious tone but he just laughed it off, i didn't stop him from laughing.
"when are you starting?"
"tomorrow" does this mean he can't pick me up from work like yesterday? i didn't say anything about it but i actually liked walking home with him rather than being alone but mostly it was because it was with him I was walking with.
"are you thinking about how i can't pick you up from work?" does it show on my face, how the hell did he figure that out.
"pffft no" pushing the hand that was holding on to mine but not strong enough to hurt him, i doubt i could hurt this guy physically though "eat" hinting to him that i want this conversation to be over..
I take a peek at him when i hear the sound of a spoon scraping the plate ending up with a smile on my face. I have a averted my eyes when I think I almost got caught.
-----------------------------------------
Kongpob and Arthit have been living peacefully now, everyone knows about their living together and you would think Bright would be against it and butt in whenever he could. Bright has actually been so busy with his own thoughts and troubles that there's not enough time for him to worry about the other couple.
Since the night of dropping Rome in his apartment, Bright's head was occupied with a picture that was on Rome's desk which he happened to see.
-flashback to the other night-
Rome had slept as he was getting piggybacked but he was half awake, enough to give his human ride the key to the door when asked for it.
the clinking and clanking sound of the key as he tried unlocking the door . Pulling down the door handle at the same time pushing the door open with his foot they were finally in. The place wasn't big nor small it was just enough and perfect for one person.
Bright sat on the bed with Rome still attached to him and then gently taking his arms that were around his neck dis-attaching Rome's body from his, flopping on the bed , the boy was so tired he didn't wake up and just the sound of soft snores were being heard.
"This guy is really light, does he even eat?" Bright said out loud, not too loud for the tired unconscious boy to wake up.
Bright didn't want to just end their meeting like this so luckily he found a spare piece of paper on the desk, writing his number. Bright has no idea why but he had a soft spot for this guy and on their first time meeting too..
Bright didn't snoop more like it was in his face when he looked up. The lights were turned off but he's sure he didn't see wrong.
*Ba dump , Ba dump" his heart repeatedly beat at rather fast pace, his eyes were frozen on the picture as if he's not blinking at all.
"Who and what the hell are you Rome?" Bright spoke out..
