-oh wow and the series has not came out yet..

-kyaa!! this makes this better!!!!

-is this some publicity stunt?

-oh wow... who would have thought.

-my baby boun likes men..??

-i knew something was off between them.

-how could prem do this to my man!!

I scrolled through my feed as I hugged my knees tightly against my chest. I did not want it to turn out this way. I stared blankly at the picture of Boun caressing my hair. It was a public place, I should have known the shit we could have been brought into. I whined and dugged my head into my arms and mentally scolded myself. It was a pure one minute before I hear the door creak open. Snapping my head up, I looked over to Boun who had a look of complete exhaustion. My gaze was noticed and Boun's tired look soon turned into in an annoyed frown. I twitched at his reaction and looked away.

"Prem. Was this intentional?"

My body froze at that sudden comment. My heart pounded like crazy as I perspired with fear. His question was monotonous yet scary. I could not bare to look into his eyes.

"What do you mean..?" I hesitantly asked as I looked down to the floor, refusing to make eyecontact with the man. I could hear a deep sign before I heard light footsteps come nearer and nearer to me. Felt like my funeral. Boun bent down to me and pressed his lips together.

"I talked to your Dad, he was as shocked as I was. You do know as a celebrity, I would get hate for dating." Boun wrapped his arms before continuing. "And the fact that this happens with my working partner before the show even releases.. it's creating major controversies." He's right, this all happened because I just wanted us to be friends. But then again, wasnt he at fault too?

"You know, I forgot that the promise is completely useless now because I broke up with her." Ah that. I actually knew about it from the start because I knew he would cut all ties with me if I told him. Selfish right? Well to me, it was good that he was pretty stupid to remember. "I hope you're not taking my kindness for granted because of what I have just did." I raised an eyebrow as I looked at him with clear confusion. "Publicity stunt. Don't you get? We're going to fake date. It's apparently good for attention." A thousand of emotions were thrown at me as mixed thoughts rained down my head. We get to be together but at what cost? Boun clearly didn't want it and we're only doing this for public approval. I could not even smile let alone move a muscle. I was too overwhelmed with fear, sadness, disappointment and excitement. As a well-known person, Boun very well took up this offer because it helps with his reputation. Though, I could see it in his eyes a sense of reluctance. I mean what choice could he have made? They wanted it.

"The last shooting is soon. Get ready. I'll drive you there." Boun got up, breaking the silent tension between us. I did not move an inch till I heard a door slam close. My legs were like jelly as I stepped onto the floor. Biting my lip, I cheered myself on. Being an actor is way more difficult than I thought. Many can't live comfortably due to major scandals that affects their career. I just started, why do I already have this curse?
...

The ride to the shooting area was dreadful. Even the poppy music blaring out the radio could not replace the cold, tense air. None of us dared to look or talk to the other. I have already tried twice, why did it always end so badly? Now that I think of it, does Boun even like men? This whole industry is filled straight men like these that it's no shocker if he doesn't. Plus, he never showed any signs like that to me despite doing all those romantic scenes with him. You're so hard to read sometimes. My thoughts stopped as we abruptly stopped. I looked out the window to realise that we were already here, the beach. The last scene. The kiss scene. I remembered how excited I was as I rolled around the bed, screaming into my pillow. But that feeling completely drained out of me. It's for work, Prem. Don't get too over yourself.

I was changed into black shorts along with a red hawaiian shirt with trees decorated all around it. It was cute, kinda reminded me when- PREM NO.
I hit myself in the forehead which made the staff around me looked at me in shock and worry. My eyes widened as I waved my hand in reassurance. Pressing again my forehead, I walked over to the medbay and grabbed an icepack. Swinging my legs, I looked around mindlessly before noticing Boun walking over to me. He pulled up some pills and threw it into his mouth. As he gulped down the water, he glanced over to me who was unconsciously staring at him. "You looked really stupid back there," He suddenly said before walking away. My mouth hanged down as I squeezed tightly on the icepack. That bitch.

"Okay everyone! Let's get ready!" I immediately jumped onto the floor, nearly tripping, threw the icepack down and ran towards the set. It's finally time.
...

The sun was coming down as the cold wind breeze brushed my soft hair back. I stared into the sunset as I had the clear yet cold ocean water touch my feet that was sunked into the grainy sand. "Orn." That's the protagonist name. I turned around to see Boun- wait no, Ten coming to me. He smiled softly as he gazed at me with loving eyes, as if I was the only he could see. "I know I've never said it properly and right now I will. I like you, I like you so much. I want to be with you for eternity." Ten walked up to me as he wrapped an arm around my waist. "What about you?" I looked down on his inviting lips, and grinned. I close the gap between us and slowly moved my mouth against his. Those two minutes were beautiful as we passionately kissed as the warm sun stared at us. Breaking the kiss, Ten's eyes widened before smirking. "What was that supposed mean, huh?"

"I like you too. Isn't it obvious?"

What I wished I could have said.
