Friends with Benefits

I Love You

It's been a week since they got out of the safe house. They met each other at events and other promotions but they hardly got any time to talk to each other. They were always surrounded by staff or their fans.

Nanon was happy that Ohm was behaving normal with him but he felt sad that they never addressed their unsolved issues. He could just wait for the moment when they can open their heart before each other.

It was the end of a tedious week and Ohm and Nanon was at the studio to shoot for World Y podcast. Ohm smiled at Nanon as he entered the studio and sat down next to him. Soon the hosts took their place and the interview begins.

The show starts with some basic questions on their styles of acting, questions related to safe house etc. Then the host asked them to describe their relationship.

Host: How do you describe your relationship with friends?

Ohm: Well, I don't have many friends. Just a few that I can count on my fingers. Nanon is one example. We used to dislike each other's habits a lot. We fought over it. We could work together but we were incompatible. But during the shoot of Bad Buddy series, I was talking to a senior about us and he suddenly told me that I love him. I was shocked. But as I pondered on his words and my actions, I knew that I love him so much. Since then, he has always been there before my eyes. When we were in safe house, I read some fan Twitter updates that spoke about how much we cared about each other. We argued, we fought but we were always there for each other. We understood each other's silence. That made me realize how much I loved him.

Ohm starts to tear up and stops speaking. Nanon wanted to hug him but they were been watched by so many people. So he decided to continue the conversation.

Nanon: As Ohm said,we had issues between us. We disliked each other's habits but there was something that kept us together. He is a caring person. He takes care of everyone around him. Whenever I am sad or feel low, he is always there asking me to smile, not to frown. He kept me away from negative thoughts and made me smile. He is the only one who can do that for me. I smile alot whenever I am with him.

Nanon looks at Ohm with eyes full of love.

Nanon (in mind): And that's why I love you so much.

Ohm's POV:

He said I am the only one who can make him smile. His eyes are filled with love as he said those words looking at me. I wanted to hug him and kiss him so badly.

The podcast comes to an end with few questions regarding their series. Ohm and Nanon thanked their host and left the studio. It was the last job for the day. They were given two days off as they have multiple events lined up the following week.

Nanon called his mother to pick him up but she was stuck in a meeting. Nonnie was at her friend's house. So he decided to go home by cab. As he was about to call the cab, he heard Ohm calling his name.

Ohm: Non

Nanon: Hmm

Ohm: How are you going home?

Nanon: Mom and Nonnie are busy. So I thought of calling a cab.

Ohm: Do you mind coming with me.

Nanon just shakes his head in no and follows Ohm to the parking lot. Ohm and Nanon got into the car and sat there without speaking a single word until Nanon decides to talk.

Nanon: Ohm

Ohm: Hmm

Nanon: Did you mean it?

Ohm: What?

Nanon: Do you really love me?

Ohm nods his head as a tear escapes his eyes.

Nanon: Then take me home.
