Guardian Angel

Smiling Beam

Beam smiled as Forth sang on stage. He also responded to their friends with sweet reactions, looking surprised then blushing.

Everyone was blown away by Forth's singing and Beam's reaction. The beautiful medical student was conquered by the engineering leader, the alpha of a group of wolves who were famous not only at the University of Metronomia, but also feared by other universities.

Forth jumped off the stage and went straight to Beam as soon as he finished singing.

Beam looked at him and smiled gently. "Your name, Forth Jaturapoom, Poom?" said Beam slowly.

Only Forth and their friends who now formed a small circle around them could hear, including the seniors.

Forth swallowed hard. There was something different about Beam, though his smile was the same. "I'll explain everything, Beam. Just... give me a chance, okay?"

Beam nodded. "You sing well, Poom. I like it."

Forth grabbed Beam's hand and squeezed it gently. "So how about our dinner date?"

Beam squeezed Forth's hand too. "Come on."

Everyone in the hall cheered when they saw Forth and Beam walking out of the hall. The two of them did not hold hands, just walked as usual, but occasionally looked at each other and smiled, impressing all.

"Just like that?" asked Park and Lam, looking at each other. "Beam isn't... angry?"

Kongpob took a deep breath and patted Wad's shoulder. "I think, if Forth loses, we can only give them a run of 90 rounds. At least that bastard gets the doctor."

"Well, considering how often we fight, we need a good doctor," murmured Prem agreeing with Kongpob's words.

"Forth got one, but automatically we get two others. They are one package, right, The Crazy Doc gank," Bright continued happily and pointed to Kit.

Kongpob nodded then patted Max on the shoulder. "Don't forget to report the results to me."

"Yes, Phi," Max said, grinning.

Phana approached them just as the seniors were walking away. He nudged Kit's arm. "How's it going, Kit?"

Kit looked up at his best friend with a frightened look.

"Phi Kit?" rebuked Ming gently. "What's wrong? Everything's fine, right? Phi Beam is taking Phi Forth well. He's not angry and they're going on a date tonight."

"We can breathe a sigh of relief, that's fine, we can reduce the circumference by 10," Max said cheerfully.

Tul frowned. "Wait, guys. I think something's wrong here. Isn't that right, Kit?"

Kit is telling Phana what happened earlier with Forth and Beam. He turned to Tul with a pale face and nodded.

"What is wrong?" Wayo asked with a worried tone.

Phana looked at his lover with a gloomy face then turned away his gaze on his other friends. "You saw Beam smile?"

The Fantastic Four, Ming, and Wayo nodded in unison. Phana and Kit sighed at the same time.

"Let's pray for Forth," said Phana in a low voice. "He needs our support to face Beam at this time. At least our prayers can give him strength."

"Pha, Beam isn't mad at all. He even complimented Forth's singing and said he liked it," Park said confused. "That's good, right? Or ... not?"

"Beam even agreed to a dinner date with Forth," Max added.

"No," Lam suddenly realized something. He looked at Kit and his face was now as pale as Kit's. "Beam isn't angry. He's VERY angry, but finnaly he knows who Forth is, who we are, and the seniors. He keeps himself from getting mad and furious, and it makes him automatically keep us all out of embarrassing situations. He doesn't want to took down Forth with an outright refusal in front of everyone, but I'm not sure...."

"Maybe He won't accept Forth's explanation," continued Tul in a trembling voice. "He might break Forth's heart on that dinner date."

"He's going to break Forth's heart into pieces. Beam can be so cold and cruel," Kit mumbled weakly. He relies on Ming and Phana. "Pha, we have to help Forth."

Phanna bowed his head in resignation. "We can't, Kit. Forth himself should be able to deal with Beam this time."

The Fantastic Four looked at each other and gulped.
