Dark Horses

Chapter 27 - Back Home

It had been few days and the family felt very well after spent some time away. Mew and Gulf had been together after their minor incident and finally packing their stuff to get on the plane.  Mew had been at it for two hours, Gulf had suggested bringing in Alex or Stu to get hold of it, But Mew thought otherwise. He can do this. Pfft. This was a piece of cake. Well, most certainly wasn't. 

Gulf came out of the bathroom with his towel on his shoulder and still wearing his night suit. He smiled at how Mew grunted irritatedly and pushed the top cover of the suitcase as he miserably tried to zip it around. 

Mew stood on the bed then sitting on the suitcase and bending towards his right, pulling the zipper really hard, Gulf smiled wide and folded his arms. 

"You know... I don't actually doubt your masculinity but I think it's time for you to give up and let me do it. " Gulf smiled flirtatiously. 

Mew huffed tiredly and laid back on the suitcase, breathing hard. Gulf laughed as he walked to him. 

"Come on... Get off." Gulf pushed off his legs off from the suitcase and opened it, Mew closed his eyes, accidentally falling asleep slowly. 

Gulf smiled while pulling out stuff from the suitcase to reorganizing it again, He stared at Mew while he was at his work, He absentmindedly thought about their lives together then his smile faded away. Will we ever be able to be together? after everything, he said to me before? What if he is right? What if we will never be able to come together in the future? 

His heart started to hurt to imagine a life without Mew and his sturdy yet stubborn behavior. His absolute bossy attitude yet the pure heart he had. Gulf couldn't imagine a life without him. How could he? 

After deep thoughts and an hour later, The suitcases were zipped and ready to be taken out. Gulf dressed up in his casual clothes, He looked at Mew as he slept in a fetal position, He sighed kneeling in front of him, touching his long nose feather-light with his index finger. He smiled at how utterly handsome this man was. How could anyone like him be single?

"Mew ?" Gulf leaned in his ear and whispered, "I love you. So freaking much. " 

Mew stirred slowly, Gulf leaned again, this time spoke very loudly, "Mew! Wake up!"

Mew shot up on the bed with his hand on his heart, shocked. Gulf laughed, "Wake up Sleepyhead! We have an hour to catch a flight you sleepy beauty!! Come on! Get up!" 

"What the fuck is wrong with you!?" Mew laid back on the bed with his hand on his head. 

"Will you move your ass out the bed now or do I go alone? I don't mind." Gulf raised his eyebrow, "I think the guys would be delighted to come in the car with me." 

Mew stared at Gulf furiously and stood up in a fit, walked towards the bathroom, and slammed the door behind him, Gulf giggled. 

-

Mew drove the car with his sunglasses on, wearing his drop-dead gorgeous black jacket. His one hand on the steering wheel and the other on the gear, Gulf looked at him, more like drooling over him - How can he look so fucking... 

"Why?" Gulf asked annoyed. Mew looked at him and held his hand warmly, confused. 

"What?" 

"This!" Gulf pointed to him, "What the fuck is this! Who told you to look so fucking HOT." Gulf rested his head on the window, running his eyes on his Mew's body. Mew laughed, while he looked ahead driving. 

"It's just not fucking fair...." Gulf mumbled while he looked out, trying to pull his hand from Mew's tight grasp. 

"Well, you look hotter.. " Mew looked at him, Gulf looked away. 

"Really? You're gonna get upset because of this.." Mew looked at him, pulling his hand towards him, Gulf tired to pull away, "Stop it."

"I said, Stop it." Mew pulled his hand towards his lips, kissed them lightly. Gulf looked at him, "Whatever happens, I am still 'your' guy, you know. " Mew said with stern eyes, "So, It doesn't matter... You look much cuter and hotter by the way, way hotter than me. So I need to be worried and not another way around." 

Gulf blushed and said nothing. "Your" Guy. That kept running on his mind. 

"Man, you're really hard to please. Do you know that? A tough one."

"Of course I am, I never thought I had to be reassured like this before. I never felt this way, I was least bothered when I was with Adrian. But now, It's just so... "

"So...?"

"Important. So important to be felt like I'm secured with my love, I can't think of anyone taking you away from me." Gulf said quietly, they looked at each other. Mew didn't say anything, Gulf knew it. He would never comment on something like "Love".

But his hand never left his. 

Mew's phone buzzed, "Yes?" 

"What!" Mew slowed down his car and stopped it near a curb. Gulf looked at him confused. 

"Are you sure?"

"Okay, I'll be there in four hours. Yes, Okay. Thanks, General" Mew hanged up, Gulf widened his eyes at the word General. Mew drove faster, "What?" Gulf asked. 

"Lhong. " Mew looked at him sternly. 

"What about him?" Gulf gulped, fear crept under his skin, the smile and eyes he saw at the mansion scared the shit out of him. 

"They found his body. " Mew said as a whisper and looked at Gulf with a straight face. 

"Oh my god..." Gulf chocked.
