A PlayBoy's Bet

Down the Memory Lane

/*Its a new chapter*/

Down the memory lane. Play Boy.

/*Flash back*/
Mew was sitting on the carpet working on his thesis. His fingers were moving fastly tapping on the keys with occasional flipping of pages of the books scattered around him.

His hair low bangs on his forehead and he was so focused on his work wearing his study glasses.

"Aaaaaaa. I hate Calculus". Suddenly the peace of the lounge was badly jolted by a high pitch whine from Gulf who was working on his assignment.

Mew placed his hand over his fast beating heart. He was so immersed in his work in silence that he almost forgot that Gulf was in the same room too.

He had failed in Calculus in his mid terms and Mew was so upset to find him crying bitterly when he found it out.

Although Gulf wasnt a topper but he never failed. And this time he got an F because he was busy partying with his friends. He was ashamed. Embarassed. Especially when he knew Mew was a topper always.

Mew comforted him, he kept him in his embrace until he felt better. Only then Mew suggested Gulf to tutor him. And that was why Gulf was studying hard with him.

"Shia Gulf. You could have spoke in a low voice instead of shouting. You scared me". Mew gulped water in one go before turning to the kid throwing tantrums beside him.

"This stupid assignment. I cannot solve the question Phi. Not even a single and there are 3 of it. And i have to submit it on Monday. The professor told, this assignment holds 25% in finals.

Phiiiiiii". He whined again, tugging his hair. Mew bit his inner cheek not to laugh on the big baby.

"What happened. Whats the problem"? He asked Gulf, putting aside his own laptop and books.

"We have to find the missing value of Lambda, and i dont know how to evaluate it when i lost Lambda itself. And then we have to draw a graph. And its the third time i am solving it". Gulf scooted close to him, showing him his work.

Mew took the pen and the paper and started solving the equation. He managed to solve the equation in less than 20 steps and started comparing with the one that Gulf solved.

"Gulf. How would you get the correct answer when you completely missed two steps. See here". Mew face palmed himself before flicking the pen on Gulf's forehead.

"Aowh. Hurts". Gulf pouted but held the paper that Mew solved. "How stupid i am". At the end he smacked his own forehead making Mew chuckle.

"Am not doing the rest of the equations". Gulf pushed the papers away before laying down on the carpeted floor. Mew looked at him for a while and joined him to lay on the floor.

Gulf pulled himself close and put his head on Mew's chest.

"How about you finish the assignment and i will reward you tonight"?  Mew bit his lower lip and he knew what would happen next because the very next moment, Gulf hovered on top of him. Dangerously low.

"You Promise"? Gulf whispered on his lips.

"You know i dont say things randomly. Choose to take or leave". Mew tried to sound nonchalant but the crimson color on his ears was not hidden from Gulf.

"Get ready to be devoured then. Because Boyyyyy, am so hungry". Gulf bend down just a bit to press his lips on Mew's, who instantly responded to his kiss.

It was morning anyway and the assignment could wait. It wasnt harmful to taste how Mew would reward him at night.
