Innocent game [FirstKhaotung/GeminiFourth/OhmNanon/PondPhuwin...] - 2/4 Pond

Pond's POV

After shooting I looked at my phone and saw Phuwin sent me a video. I watched it but didn't understand what the hidden message is here.

When he noticed I was active, he immediately called me.

"Hi Phuwin."

"Hey Pond, have you seen my short film?"

"I did but I don't understand what you are trying to tell me through it. You may understand how I feel but that doesn't show that you are serious about it."

"Didn't you pay attention?! I had there "you should give it a chance"."

"And? Look, it's not just about my work, you know? I don't want to suffer anymore and if you just want to explore something and then abandon me when I'm deep in it, I just can't open my heart for you." He stayed quiet.

"So it's still not enough..."

"I seriously don't know how you can prove you are serious-." He hung up and I took it as a sign of the end of this charade.

Later when I finally got home, I saw him sitting on the staircase in front of my house. Today, the weather wasn't nice, it was a strong wind and at some parts it was raining. He was sitting there soaked in wet clothes while coughing.

"Phuwin!" I ran to him and he shivered from cold. I helped him inside and let him use the bathroom. After he put on my spare clothes, I dried his hair with a fan.

"Are you crazy?! I thought you are the top student!"

"Can't you see I can't think logically when it comes to you?!"

"Seriously, why are you still trying?"

"Because if I don't do that, I will lose you forever..." He was dizzy and when I touched his forehead, it was too hot.

"You need to lie down! Let's talk when you get better!" He nodded and I helped him to my bed. I made him a black tea and gave him some pills. He slept like a kitten and I couldn't stop smiling seeing him like this.

When I went to the bathroom to wash his clothes, I found a note inside it.

Ideas how to win his heart:

- making a short film about his crush
- confess to him in radio (rather not, it would get to him only if I exposed his name)
- not leaving his side until he opens his heart for me
- writing a song for him
...

The rest was impossible to read but just knowing he's thinking hard about it makes me believe this time it's real, not just friends, not just brothers.

I went to check-up on him and his fever finally dropped. He was hugging my pillow and muttered something in his sleep.

"I miss you, Pond... do you miss me too?" You don't even know how much. He was never dreaming about me before nor talked from his sleep about me. I feel we've finally made a new step in our relationship. I kissed his forehead and he wrapped his hand around my legs, not letting me go.
He was still asleep but the strength in his hands was incredible.

He opened his eyes and looked startled but still hung onto my legs.

"Oh, sorry... I had a bad dream..." He pulled away and covered his face in the blanket. I sat down on the bed.

"I saw your honest feelings, Phuwin... I'm sorry I thought that you just don't want to feel lonely."

"If it was just this, I'd spend more time with Gem but even with him by my side, I felt freaking lonely without you. The way you cut me off your life was so painful. It made me think more and more about you in a different light... And I-." He didn't have to say more. My lips automatically touched his. I pulled away and said: "Do you mean this by that different light?"

"Exactly." He said and pulled me closer for another kiss but then he started coughing and pulled me away.

"I forgot I still have a flue! You can't catch it from me!" I smiled and kissed him again.

"Let's just say the shooting will have to be delayed."

"You can't do that, what about your fans?!"

"At the moment I can care just about one person..." I couldn't stop giving him pecks him until I've also started coughing.

"Your manager will kill me!"

"Then... let's die together." He slapped my head and I lied on the bed next to him.
