A Song Only You Can Hear: kimchay + Vegaspete

Kakeru waited with Chay until Macau showed up. "Alright well let's make plans for the music store soon, Yeah?" Kakeru says getting into the car that just pulled up. Chay nods "I'll message you to make sure you got back safe!" Chay yells out and all he can see is Kakeru nodding before he leaves.

Chay arrived back at the Minor family mansion with new piercings and clear instructions on how to take care of them. Dao had given the boys a ride to the piercing shop Chay had been looking into in his spare time and then they had dropped Macau off at his home. "P'Dao how are you feeling?" Chay asks, sitting on one of the stools with a sandwich Khun Achara had insisted he eat. "I'm alright Chay nothing I can't handle" Dao says, smiling at Chay.

"Mmm has my brother been here at all?" He continues.

"Nope I think he's been staying with the major family, meetings and stuff."

"Yeah meetings and stuff, right"

Chay finishes his sandwich and heads back to his room. The first thing he does is grab his computer and check his email. There it is the response he has been waiting for. He decides he can't wait any longer and opens it. He lets out a sigh and then a breathy laugh he's been accepted and with a scholarship. It would pay for a little more than half of the classes he needed, which meant he'd only have to worry about forty percent of the tuition.

Chay hadn't thought anything of it when he decided to apply for a scholarship figuring it would be something he'd give a try too so Porsche wouldn't be stuck paying full tuition. Chay is excited to tell his brother so he tries calling him. The phone rings and rings but no one answers. Chay looks down at his phone frowning. A few minutes later though he receives a message "Hey Chay sorry i'm a bit busy talk later okay?" he sighs and doesn't reply.

So he calls Macau instead "Hey, Guess what? I just got my acceptance into Chiang Mai today! And I got a scholarship too!"

"Oh my God Chay that's great! I have to tell Hia, and Pete! This is amazing!" Chay can't help but laugh someone finally sharing his happiness with him. He can hear Macau running off somewhere phone in hand and yelling out for his brother and Pete. When he tells them the good news they all congratulate him. ''We have to celebrate Chay, this is amazing!" Pete yells.

"Pete's right Chay how about you come over we'll make a whole thing out of it you don't have school tomorrow so you can just sleep over" Vegas adds.

Chay hasn't been home much lately but he wasn't about to turn down a chance to spend time with them. He hated being alone anyway so after packing clothes for the night he heads over and asks someone else to take him over to Macau's place because Dao had just gone up to rest and Chay would be damned if that man didn't get at least one nap in because he knew Dao was lying when he said he was okay. The bodyguard is about to pick up Chay's bag when someone else does it for him. "I'm hurt Khun Chay" P'Dao says picking up his bag and throwing it in the back of the car. Chay looks at the busted lip and the bruise on the side of his eye "Yeah no kidding" he responds. Dao looks down at him and grimaces "It's not funny Chay, I'm your bodyguard, I should be driving you places." Chay smiles and puts his hand on Dao's shoulder "Phi you need to rest, you're hurt and you're lying when you say it's alright." Chay lifts up a finger when Dao opens his mouth "Phi he'll only be driving me to Macaus place, let's do this, take the rest of the day off and you can pick me up tomorrow" Chay says in an attempt to comfort Dao.

"Alright but at least let me tag along for the ride? I'll come back and rest after." Chay can do nothing but sigh and nod. They head straight to Macaus and the next person to find out is Kakeru. Chay texts him asking him if he got home safe and gets a quick response

"Yeah i'm okay, what about you after everything with Kim I know you were upset."

"I'm fine, I have some good news actually! I was accepted into Chiang Mai! And I got a Scholarship!"
