"I'm burning and it's because of you."

"It's my father," Earth sighed.
"At this hour? Why doesn't he assume you are asleep?" Mix frowned, his good mood slowly leaving him.
"I don't know," Earth murmured and picked up the phone.
"Where are you?" Earth's father sounded angry — as he always did.
"Not kidnapped, if that's what you think."
"Then where are you, Pirapat?"
"Out. What do you even want from me in the middle of the night?"
"I didn't fucking give you my best bodyguard for you to just disappear in the middle of the night, God knows where without telling someone. Get your ass home right now!"
Earth scoffed, "I'm not fifteen, dad. I can go wherever I want and whenever I want."
"Not when someone wants you dead," his father growled to the phone, Earth could almost see his father's angry face.
"And whose fault is that, huh?"
"You are just like your fucking mother — so stubborn."
"You have no right to talk about my mom," Earth's body tensed, eyes got darker, "see you in the morning, maybe."
Earth wanted to hang up when his father spoke again, "when I find out where you are—"
"You won't," Earth felt Mix lightly squeezing his shoulder, he reached for Mix's hand and intertwined their fingers. "Instead of trying to find where I am, you should start thinking about what you might have done, that could piss someone off so much that they want me dead.

"Are you alright?" Mix softly asked.
"Can I sleep here?" Earth turned towards Mix, his expression pleading.
"Yes," Mix smiled and stood up from the floor. "I'll find you something to sleep in, wait."
Earth was still sitting on the floor, gazing at Mix, wondering if Mix felt as filled with love and joy as he did. Had Mix also dreamed about it many times?
"Earth?"
"Earth?"
Seconds later a black t-shirt and grey sweatpants hit Earth in the face, bringing him back to reality.
