When He Loves Me | KhunBam

My Favorite Form Of Loving

Somewhere in the living room, the bluenette turns over. Seriousness wash over his face.

"I- ...you know how we'd plan to attend the social gatherings with the team next Thursday...? I.. I don't think I'll be able to make it..." Khun sighs, his eyes full of regret and guilt.

"Khun..." the brunette soften up, returning the gaze with a saddened disapprove smile.

"I- I know we rarely meet up now due to our busy schedules now that we're all working adults... and that you really want to spend it with all of us... but I have an important meeting that day and I won't make it in time for the event." The bluenette huffs.

"Sorry, Bam... please try to understand... we had discussed this many times and how excited.... I know I'm asking too much but my parents won't stop nagging me if I don't go." His eyes avert to the ground, avoiding the pure sincere honey stares directed at him.

The group of friends had agreed to go out for the time being after years of not contacting due to their work overload and adulthood once they parted after college. It's an important gathering, it took them quite a long time to have the same free time but now that Khun is not going... what's the use? Bam sighs.

"Your parents? What do you mean?"

I knew he's gonna ask that. The bluenette gazes upon the brunette's round scintillating gold-colored orbs, he breaths out a response. The walls around his throat tighten.

"I'm having an arranged blind date, Bam. With some rich girl named Maria."

Date...? Those words pierced right through Bam's soul. Why and with who? What's all this sudden news? What's happening? The boy can't express his surroundings or what is to come out from his lips but one thing for sure is that he doesn't like it. Khun being with someone else. Maybe it's because Bam doesn't know the girl. Whatever the reason is, he doesn't like seeing his friend, Khun, alone with someone besides him. Why is that?

But who is he to stop Khun... They're just friends, after all.

With his heavy feelings left laying inside him, Bam forces his body to nod and simply let his friend, Khun goes off. On a date. With a girl. That's not him.

-

After the party, the friends were fussing over Khun going on a date and ditching them. Not one to be oblivious about the idiots' feelings, Isu knew Bam wasn't too happy either and ends up cornering himself in the dark seat and get drunk wasted.

Back at home, Isu drops his friend on the couch just in time for Khun to come back. He loosens his tie and removes his puffy black jackets away, the one Bam has gifted him.

"You better take extra good care of your lover boy, Khun."

"It's not like that and you know it."

"I'm just saying, man. He looks heartbroken and we didn't even get a chance to get him to talk."

"That's your problem. Bam simply doesn't want to talk to you guys."

Putting his stuff down, Khun makes his way to grab a glass of water in the kitchen with Isu trailing from behind.

"Don't you think it's because a certain person with blue hair and blue eyes told him he has a date?"

"Hah? How is that related? I didn't want to turn down the gatherings too, you know but you know how my parents are. I got no choice."

Isu sighs in defeat, it's impossible no matter how hard he tries Khun wouldn't listen or believe that Bam has any hinge of feelings toward him too unless he gets to hear it straight out of the brunette's lips.

"Then, how was it?"

"Not bad."

Isu whistles, did he just hear his coldhearted bastard of a friend says one date with this girl is not bad? Perhaps it's not much of a compliment but 'not bad' from Khun? More of a praise, lucky her.

"Who's the lucky one?"

"Some rich girl my parents have a connection with. Our parents know each other."

"Damn. You up for a second one?"

Khun chugs empty of his glass before setting it down calmly on the counter. He looks up.

"A-Ahaha... yeah, I should go now."

Isu knows when to stop and that's the boundary right there. He runs over to the living room, grabs his stuff and left. On the way, he peeks back.

"Oh yeah, Khun? Bam shoots Endorsi down, just thought you might know."

What?

"Just get out."

"Bye, bye then my love."

The door shuts close, Khun rubs in between his furrowed brows. Bam isn't one to say no, he's too sweet and pure-hearted. Although Endorsi has been flirting with him, Bam has never once rejected her. Instead he goes along but he made sure to keep clear intention that he doesn't see her in that way but she's not giving up just from that.

It was a disaster, he has to watch her attempts of making moves on Bam. Everytime they met eyes, it felt like a bullet pierces through his heart.

After all... Endorsi has a better chance than he'll ever get, doesn't she?

"U...gh... K-Khu..un..."

A voice from the other side, Khun is snap back to reality and rushes to the drunk brunette's side. He reaches to hold the boy's hands.

"What is it, Bam? Do you want a drink? I'll go get you some water, okay wait."

"D-Don't leave..."

Bam pulls the hem of Khun's shirt and the bluenette sits back down beside him. His hand brushes along the back of silky brown strands.

"I'm not leaving, I'm here. I'll just get you water and come back. It'll be quick, Bam."

"N-No!"

His grip on the bluenette's shirt tightens.

"Alright, alright. I won't go. I'm not going anywere, Bam so try to get some rest okay?'

"mmh..."

His dainty, slender fingers brush along the brown locks, gently caressing the hummed boy. Khun giggles. 'He's so cute.' Bam shifts his body, arms wrapped around the bluenette's waist. 'Oh!'

"Kh... Khun..."

"Hmm?"

"You know... I- I didn't like it when... mmh..."

"When?"

Khun's fingers tangle around, rubbing and patting the boy which sends wave of warmth and tingliness to the boy. He can feel the exhaustion hits him. His voice is getting sleepy, drowsy eyelids trying to keep up and the bluenette couldn't help but find this sleepy Bam even more adorable than he already is.

Bam pulls him in closer, hugging the boy tighter.

"I don't want you to go on that date!"

His cobalt hues widen in surprise as he freezes still. While Bam, on the other hand, closes and drifts away to dreamland.

Khun carries him to bed after;)
