a/n: Please listen to Last Dance by One Ok Rock as you read this chapter.

"Beam, I..."

"I'm sorry, Forth." Beam cut him off.

Forth froze. His mouth agape, trying to find what to say with the sudden apologize. He's searching for any hint on Beam's expression, but the doctor still has his straight face.

Beam smiled gently and looked at Forth. Really looked at Forth. The hazer tensed under Beam's eyes.

"I'm sorry, Forth..." Beam said softly, "...I don't know why I drank so many cans at that time. And I also caused you trouble."

Forth stayed glued on his position.

"I'm embarrassed to admit it but I acted like a child having a tantrum..." Beam chuckled while awkwardly scratching his cheek, "I even just upped and went home. That was so irresponsible of me."

"Uhm..." Forth tried but still can't find any word.

He's dumbfounded at what Beam just said.

"Congrats, Mr. Jaturapoom." Beam congratulates him as he offered his hand to Forth for a shake.

"Tha...thank you." Forth stuttered, clumsily accepting Beam's handshake.

"Let's just forget what happened because the event finished peacefully." Beam added.

'No! It's not finished, It hasn't started yet' Forth thought.

Forth hasn't yet realized that Beam just left when the loud chattering from the committee members broke him from his trance. He couldn't keep his head clear with Beam's words still echoing inside his mind. He looked from every corner when he noticed Beam was no longer in front.

He ran to the door, hoping he could still catch up to Beam. He saw beam walking towards the elevator as Forth exit the room. He managed to reach the elevator button as it was closing, startling Beam with the sudden reopening of the lift.

Forth entered the lift and quickly pressed for the ground floor. He took deep breaths before facing Beam. Exhaling and inhaling as he clenched his fist, willing his nerves away, attempting to pacify his pounding heart.

Suddenly the elevator bell rung as it stops on the selected floor. Beam made a motion towards the opening door of the lift but Forth spun to face Beam, effectively stopping him from taking a step outside. Forth pressed the closed button and Beam's eyes widen at that.

"Beam..." Forth nervously exhaled. 

"I don't want to forget what happened." Forth plead while taking a step towards Beam.

Beam avoided Forth's gaze as shocked crossed his face. Forth's musky scent pervading Beam's mind that he tries not to tremble from the hazer's crowding. Beam flinched when Forth suddenly hit the wall besides him causing a loud thud, his eyes widened when he realized the taller man has him pinned against the wall.

"Let's not forget it, Beam." Forth beg as he grip Beam's left arm, "If I forget what happened, everything will just go back to how it was before...and I don't want our relationship to be just the head hazer and head medic." 

"Then..." Beam gulped, "...what do you want us to be if not the head of our respective team?" Beam asked coldly, still refusing to give Forth any single glance. "Even before this, we don't have anything to do with each other. So what are you asking to happen?"

"I..I like you." Forth whispered.

"Why?" Beam cried, "Why do you like me when you barely know me? We don't even see each other eye to eye."

"I still like you." Forth's voice quivered.

"Please...lets just forget everything that happened between us." 

"You cried." Forth took Beam's face on his hand, wiping an invisible tear.

"You cried and I still don't know why you cried!" Forth gritted out, "Do you think I would just forget everything when I saw you cried?"

"You'll get over it." Beam replied bluntly.

"I cried countless tears for you but I still get over it. You think you cant, but you already did it once" Beam continued, brushing Forth's hand off of his face, "That's what you do. You show that you care and the next second, you forget."

Beam pushed Forth away just in time for the elevator door to suddenly open. A group of Engineering seniors are waiting on the other side of the door, dumbfounded to see the Head hazer and a Head Medic together inside. They stood still not wanting to be the one to disperse the tension between the two.

Beam dash out, leaving Forth with the group. Forth tried to follow but one of the seniors stopped him.

"Are you terrorizing the Medic Team?" The senior asked with a serious face.

"No." Forth replied in a clipped tone.

"Then what's with the Head Medic running away from you?" Another senior asked.

"It's none of your business, P's" Forth hissed, glaring at the group.

"IS THAT THE WAY YOU ANSWER YOUR SENIOR, JATURAPOOM?" The senior that was hanging at the back now making his way in front of Forth, fbarked out.

"But this doesn't exactly concern you, P' Singto." Forth answered.

"It does when the current head hazer is caught cornering a student from a different faculty." Singto snapped, clearly showing his disapproval. 

Forth is itching to just punch anything in his way, but he can't just start a fight with the former Hazing team. He is the current head hazer, however, the senior still has the power since they always follow seniority. P' Singto and the other's still hold most of the authority among the engineering students.

"The SOTUS may have finished but this doesn't end your responsibility as the head hazer." P' Singto warned the 3rd year hazer.

(a/n: Singto is still my favorite Hazer but Arthit's gang were the best especially P' Bright)

•••○•••

"Forth! You should really put a stop to this fighting!!" Lam shouted as he tries to pull Forth away from the guy he's punching.

Forth is still persisting from beating the shit out of his opponent like he never heard anything. One by one, another student came to fight with Forth until Lam is forced to fight alongside him. He has no idea what reason Forth has to caused this brawl.

"Forth!! Stop! Someone is calling for the seniors!! And we should really run away from here!!" Lam urges.

And like a rampaging bull, Forth refuses to stop.

A/N: Excuse my Grammar and Typo Errors.

a/n: 

Seriously, how long was Forth and Beam inside the elevator? Does no one use elevator that much? I made my university as reference and there's always someone using the elevator, so Beam and Forth's elevator scene is impossible to happen in my college. You should really thank me for this chapter cause I'm a non-confrontational person so what I wrote here was so challenging to me. I also find myself sometimes wondering why I made Beam this way. I often beat myself why I wrote Beam as a tsundere and that really irritates me sometimes because it's hard writing a character with severe mood swing (no offense). Then I remember I really love Natsume Isaku's work and their work often times has that character but not quite the tsundere. I really wanted for Beam to be like Onoe from Ameiro Paradox or Sou-sama from Hanakoi Tsurane! 

Anyway here's the 2nd update for this month, I'm trying to write this regularly because I want to finish this before I go away for my licensure exam review. 

Much effort, much Prosperity
