2018
And they rush into each other, like no one more in this world.
Sometimes Tay thinks that, being as a lover is only a way to clear their relationship, cause what they did everyday before is exactly lovers stuff. But after being with New, he realizes that he was wrong, because New being a boyfriend isn't totally familiar with an usual New. Yeah, still be stubborn, still love teasing Tay, be jealousy, be possessive, but at a extreme much more higher level. New as a boyfriend by some way will show everyone that they are being with each other, will mad at Tay because he forget the first one-month anniversary, will ask Tay to catch his call in 3 rings and reply the message in 3 minutes, will ask Tay to video call him everyday when they are apart from work, will act as a baby when they are in private place... . And fortunately, Tay crazily loves that New.
When love is a secret, we cannot hold our love's hands publicity, we cannot kiss him whenever we want, we cannot talk to others about his bad-habits,... but fortunately, we have something called fanservice. Actually, both Tay and New don't like those activities, they are required to act like this and that, are asked to pretend like a real couple, but the thing is, I can show to this world, publicity that how much I love you.
Like usual TayNew, they present in every important moment of each other's. Like on Tay's birthday, though New has a flight but still come by, clapping the elder's shoulder when he cries because of what his fandom do for him.
-"You said you can't come" Tay softly ask
-Just check if you are seduced by someone.
Tay pretend to punch New: Teasing!
-You can see right, Tay? People love you so much.
-Yeah, I am really happy.
They both smile, keep looking at each other like that.
-And if you care, I am included in "People". New smiles
Without missing a second, Tay pulls New's head and give him a kiss.
And of course, like usual TayNew, they fight.
New likes driving Tay to work and pick him up, he said he want to be the first one Tay meet in the morning and the last one Tay say goodbye everynight. One night, New is on a day off but Tay have to work late, and it is going to be rain , so Tay calls New not to come cause Oab can take him home, and of course, New doesn't agree:
-No, I will come and we will find some sweet to eat, waiting for me.
-Hey, New, New...
9 o'clock and New hasn't come, it's is raining but Tay can't contact to New.
-Hey P'Tay, wanna be my passenger?
-No, New will come.
The phone suddenly rings
-Hello?
-Tay, it's me, my car is hit and it cannot start, my phone is out of power.
-What? Where are you?
Tay cuts off the phone, run as fast as he could to the parking
-"Oab, can you drive me to this road now" Tay point at the map.
Tay comes to New's place in 30 minutes. Looking at New who got wet, Tay yells:
-"What are you doing here? I told you let be at home." Then he gets a towel in his bags, cleans the younger
New looks at Oab, then push Tay and say with a bigger voice:
-So why the hell you coming here?
Actually, New feels really mad. Feeling hungry and cold to meet his boyfriend, but what he gets is his boy yell at him, in front of Oab.
-Hey P'New, I called people to help. They will be there in 15 minutes.
Both Tay and New keeps silent all a long way to home. Tay keeps looks at New in the mirror. Poor Oab, he doesn't know what to say.
-Hey Oab, let me off here, I can get taxi now, let's take New home and you should go home soon, too.
-No, let me drive you home.
They clearly hear a sighing from the other on the car.
-"We have work tomorrow. And you still haven't eaten, have you?"
"Damn Tay, I haven't eaten, too" New thinks himself and suddenly says:
-Oab, just let him off, he is worry about you.
Tay looks at New whom still avoid looking at Tay. Then he off the car.
-Bye P'New- Thank you so much Oab.
Oab leaves, New feels as if he is exhausted. What a strange, the door is unlock.
New comes in the room, look at the person who is in the kitchen.
-Why are you so late?
-Why are you here? Go!
-I will go, until you get changes and eat up.
New look at the hot bowl on Tay's hand, understanding why he asks to get off the car. He pretends to be neglect:
-Ok.
After showering, New sits next to Tay and eat, pretend not to know the other's presense. Tay looks at the boy who is gobbled eating, takes a dryer to dry New's hair, feels really hurt. The other's soft fingers touch New's hair, New suddenly forget why he is mad.
-I am sorry New. Just I cannot control myself when I saw you suffering any hurt. I was really worry. If you had been me, would you have stood for this?
-I won't yell at you in front of other people.
-"But you did, didn't you?" Tay smiles
-I still haven't forgiven you yet.
The air falls into silence. Suddenly, Tay hears the whisper:
-I just want to be with you as much as I could. We wasted so much time, Tay!
Tay turns off the dryer, hugs New from the back:
-Let's live together, will you?
New almost chokes, then he laughs:
-Ok, then we will raise a dog and a cat. Looking at them fighting everyday.
-So as they see us brickering everyday.
-You have to prepare the breakfast with cake.
-And you have to drink my healthy juice.
-And you have to be keep silent whenever I listen to music.
-You will arrange our budgets.
New smiles, he is really happy though he know Tay is just kidding
-Ok, if we live together, our house will be like, a battlefield.
Tay comes to sit opposite, looking deep into New's eyes, and softly say:
- I am sincere New, let's create our battlefield.
-You... you really mean it? You don't want me you take and pick you up anymore?
-Because I want to live with you. I desire to give you a goodnight kiss and also wake you up by a morning kiss. What do you say New?
-So we will publicity our love, won't we?
-I and Off used to live together. No one doubt.
-They don't ship you guy, you idiot!
Tay holds New's hand:
-Your idiot thought carefully, we will buy a apartment next to each other's. We will live in one of them.
-Which one for live?
- Aw, of course wife has to move in husband's house-my house.
New glances at Tay. Tay continues:
-The other left, we will store our stuff, and back up for when we fight, one will stay in there. ok?
-Deal!
And the life keeps going on greatly like that. Tay is waken up by a pillow in the morning, New is always complained not to eat this or eat more that. They open a spa together, called Bamboo. It is New's opinion, said: Having joint thing means that you are stuck with me all your life!. Of course, the name of the spa is the result of bickering, again!
They really do everything like, not a couple anymore, but a married couple, as New said: "To make up for the days we missed". New has fanmeeting in Taipei, he says he want to be there again for travelling next time. Then they take another trip, to Korea, cause Tay wants to take the Polar to the cold place. Coming back with Our Sky and Tay New Meal Days. Whenever one is away from home, they will call video at the night. Being with the other on Chrismas Day, prepare for YILOVEYOU together, then travel to Japan together.
They just do every activities of a 6-year or 60-year couple, in like 6-months. Their life, exactly, is stuck by the other's.
In showbiz, when love is a secret, it is just a feelings, but when love isn't a secret anymore, it is a topic of feelings, career and something called social image.
Knock, knock...
-Come in!
-"Hey boss, you call us?" Tay asks when gets the seat for New.
-"Ok, before I talk, I'll give you something you may interested in, New." He gives New a screnario, on it is written: The Classic!
-P', this is...
-Well, not a main role, but it is really a good chance to develop in your career. Not a series, but a movie New!
Tay smiles widely: Congra boy, it is exactly a progress! But P', so why am I here?
-Maybe it is non of my business, but may I know, are you guy in love?
As usual, Tay smile: No way,...
-"Yes P', I am in love with him." New smiles, happily
-Congratulation, I am admired your love. My daughter must be happy to know it!
-"So is it related to the movie, P?" Tay suddenly asks
-Ok, to be short, the director want his actors with clear image!
-Clear image? Wait, I can't get it? Is my image that bad?
-No, clear image here concludes handsome, no-scandal, and straight.
It is really a shock, for both New and Tay. Cause they never think that one of them will be an obtacle in the other's career.
-But no one know about our relationship?
-They don't know, but they believe in it. The audience believe that you are exactly a couple, at least through what you showed.
-So what can we do?
-Minimize the interaction, right after YILOVEYOU concert.
-How about Dark Blue Kiss?
-Well people will think about the fanservice!
The air falls into silence. The boss sighs:
-Carefully think about it. Wanna hear my advice?
-Of course, boss
-I have been in that entertainment feilds like, more than 15 years, and the number of gay actors have chance to develop are really not much. Well, you can see many people support it, but at least, our country, the large of audience, still has not really had a fair view of it. You can see that we gradually seperate New from BL films with Wolf or Love Beyond Froniter, and The Classic will be another milestone in your career. And we also tends develop Tay in TV show fields. Believe me, only when you have a enough good position in this career, you can protect your love. Life is so long, so why don't you use this chance to challenge your love too?
The boss keeps looking two boys: In showbiz, people like gossiping. You know that, actually, there are many BL couple or even normal couple hides their love to develop their career, and to protect their lovers. They even accept a scandal of dating a girl to sure that they are straight, by the way, my daughter keeps telling me about her favorite famous BL couples in China, even not interact to each other on any social media, and even creating scandal with a girl to "built the straight image actor".
-"Wait, wait, you mean he will date a girl?" Tay suddenly cut the lines
-And even you, Tay, if necessary.
-Can it be too overwhelming?
-Well, you are in the game, you have to accept the rules.
The boss continues: But you know what, the good new is, love is love, when your love is big enough, it can beat any obtacles. I will give you time and go out.
Tay looks at New: Well, I don't have right to say no. But he is right New.
-New looks at Tay, softly says: I only scared time pass so fast, we meet another and you will forget what we had together. Or one day we will realize that the other's position in our heart will be not important anymore.
Tay holds New's hand, and asks: Will you hold my other hands?
New holds the elder's hand, being face to face, listen a soft voice:
-So I will hold your one hand, you will hold my one hand in order to when one intend to go, the other hand will keep us, tightly!
New smiles: I will punch you if you dare to leave me. But Tay, being just like this is good, isnt it?
-Are you interested in this chance?
-Yeah, I do, but do you know that, I am much more interested in your feeling.
-If you are happy, then I am happy. When you smile, I smile. Just do it.
Their hands become tightly. New suddenly remembers something:
-Hey Tay, you still owe me one, from the Sri Panwa.
-"Hey still haven't done yet? I forget to say, This room has camera, I will be my daughter's hero". The boss suddenly cut the line
But noone seems to care about his presense.
-I love you, totally love you. From a very long time ago.
They almost kiss, but suddenly Tay smiles: What a fate, New can you realize that this room is exactly where we interview for Five Live?
New is really irritated. Tay ruins everyone, even their moment
-Yeah, that time I gonna punch you, and this time too.
Tay pulls New and gives him a deep kiss, looks deeply into the younger eyes:
-I dont know what will happen in the future, I dont promise our love will be forever, I don't know when you are success, am I still be the one who over the stand and record all of that moments. Our path is rugged like that, is unfinited like that, New, will you agree to hold my hand, go to our future together, as far as we could, as long as we could?
-Our future has you there, it is worth for expecting.
