Hauntingly Beautiful (Completed)

A White Lie

"What the hell? "

"I'm sorry. "

"I'm done with you Tine. "

"Please... "

"No."

"I said I'm sorry. What do you want me to do? "

"Sorry won't cut it. "

"Then what do you want me to do? I'll do anything."

Sarawat didn't understand why he felt his breath hitch when Tine said he'll do anything. It kinda distracted him. He was angry with Tine because he had posted their pic (which was clicked without his knowledge and consent) on his facebook account and now everyone was starting at them and talking about them.

"It's just a pic. "

"Pic itself isn't an issue. The caption is the worst thing."

"It sounds okay to me."

"Are you serious? Why the hell did you write- Had such a rough night with this guy that I'm aching all over."

"So what? It's true. We studied till late and I didn't get enough sleep so I'm tired as hell."

"Those words are misleading."

"Well, it depends on readers mindset. I didn't use any bad words."

"I feel like punishing you right now."

"I can't wait for it, Sir." Tine replied seductively.

"TINE."

"Okay, I'll stop. Don't get angry. I was just kidding. I'll treat you to dinner as an apology."

"No need. "

"Please...... "

"Okay."

"Huh? "

"What? "

"You gave in so easily."

"Whatever."

Tine couldn't decide what he should wear to restaurant. He wanted to dress up for Sarawat. When he reached the restaurant Sarawat messaged him saying he couldn't make it. Tine was upset.

He wanted to spend some time with him but Sarawat hardly ever agreed to meet him away from their tutoring time. They never made small talks or tried to get to know each other better. Tine tried really hard to start conversations with Sarawat but he would always ignore or glare at him.

Even though they met daily still Tine hardly knew Sarawat as a person. It looked like these 6 months would go like this and he would be no where near to knowing real Sarawat. The more he spent time with him, Tine could feel himself falling a bit harder for Sarawat. It didn't make sense because they weren't even friends but he couldn't stop thinking about Sarawat. He needed to step up his game.

Next day Tine acted drunk and called Sarawat to pick him up.

"Wat, hiiiiii babe."

"What the hell?  Tine is that you? "

"Yesss, baby. I miss you."

"Are you drunk? "

"Noooo. I just miss you, baby. "

"Stop this nonsense."

"Babyyy. Come here."

"I don't have time for this. I'm hanging up."

"I'm all alone. Babe? "

"Call your friends."

"Noooo. They won't come."

"It's not my problem. Go back to your apartment."

"I'm all alone, Wat. I'm scareddd."

"Stop screaming. I can hear you just fine. You shouldn't have gone alone, idiot."

"You are being meanie. "

"Whatever. Don't call me. "

"Please Wat."

"Stay right there. Where are you? "

"Bar."

"Which bar, idiot? "

"Meanie."

"Tine."

"Flavours Bar. "

Sarawat was inclined to ignore Tine but the thought scared him a little. What if something happened to him? Someone tried to take advantage of him? What if he got in an accident ? These thoughts made him rush out of his apartment and drive quickly to the bar.

He searched for Tine for a while and then spotted him sitting at one of the table in the corner.

"Tine? "

"Sarawat, you are here. "

"Let's go. "

Sarawat tugged Tine's hand and took him out of the bar. He made Tine sit in the car and they drove off.

"Where do you live? "

"I want to go to your room. "

"No."

"Please Wat."

"No."

"I want to go with you. "

"Tell me your address or I'm leaving you right here. "

Tine pouted so adorably Sarawat felt his heart pick up a beat.

"Please Sarawat. Please. "

"...... "

Sarawat didn't reply but he drove to his apartment. He wasn't sure why was he letting Tine into his life. He hardly ever gave other people second thought but lately this boy has been all he could think about. He kind of hated the thought of that. He wasn't gay nor did he want to be one. He wanted to push Tine away yet at the same time he craved for his presence.

Soon they reached the apartment and Sarawat carried Tine to the room. Tine was being a bit too wobbly. He didn't look that drunk yet he was almost hanging onto Sarawat.

As soon as Sarawat got Tine into the room, Tine pulled him down with him on the bed.

"What the?  Go take a shower and sleep. "

"I don't want to sleep."

"Why? "

"I want to do other things."

"Like what? "

"You."
