It was a calm and sunny morning day at the dragon's lair. Kuea was on his bed half naked. As usual, he felt the headache like he always did whenever he got drunk.

A memory from the last night flashback to his mind. He saw Lian at Gemini's club. He laughed to himself thinking how wasted he was and he started imagining things.

He rose from his bed and walked to his closet to get some t-shirts to put on.

He wanders to his house. He was looking for Diao and he will ask him if he is the one who took him home last night.

The usual setting is in the morning. He always saw his best friend in his kitchen. But right now he only stays in his place and stares at Diao who was busy with himself doing breakfast.

Kuea unknowingly smiles and he did it for a couple of minutes.

While Diao felt his presence. He turned his back and he saw his friend staring at him. Kuea lost himself and he didn't realize that Diao was approaching him.

Then his eyes meet his lips. It was a plumpy soft pink one.

Kuea grabbed Diao's neck and he claim his lips one more time.

He snapped himself out. Then he normally faces Diao but he was confused why he suddenly felt flustered by looking at his face.

"Wait what????!!!!" Kuea out of nowhere blurted it. When a vivid memory plays in his mind.

"Did we??? We??? Kissed??"

"Kuea..."

"Huh???? Ha??" he came back to his senses when he realized that Diao's both hands cup his face.

Diao went awkward after meeting Kuea's eyes. He took his hands back.

"Let's go eat" Diao took his hand and led him to the dining area.

Both of them feel something in their stomachs.

"I shouldn't get drunk from now on" Kuea started to rant after he finished his meal.

"You're right. You've been drinking for two nights straight" he agreed to him.

"I mean, I was so wasted last night. I think I saw Hia Lian in Gemini's club last night. And then I think I ki---"

Kuea paused when he realized he was about to spill it in front of him. That he was kissing him?? That dream was wild and looked real.

"And what else??"

"Ah??? Nothing. Nothing. It's just Lian. I must be crazy or missing him. I just don't know"

Diao only nodded and he continue his food. Kuea went silent and he felt something different about Diao. He was usually talkative and he's gonna talk about the love of his life, his Hia Yi.

"I might go home now," he told Kuea who was still confused about what he is seeing to Diao.

"Did something happen between you and Hia Yi??" he let out a sigh before he proceed to take the plate out on the table.

"I've been thinking for a while about what am I gonna do with Hia Yi"

"What do you mean by that?"

"I like Hia since when I was in junior high school. Until Dad let me stay with Hia, for business matters. I thought we have something special, but turn out, my Dad can control him because he had me in his life"

"Do you still love him?"

"I guess... but for now I am tired of being used." He stare at Kuea face and he beamed a warm smile. "You gave me courage Kuea. Just like what happened between you and Hia Lian"

"Diao... I feel so bad"

"Huh??"

"You're always there for me whenever I need someone to run to if things are difficult with Hia Lian. But I also forgot that you have also faced a problem"

"Kuea... you're my friend. And what are friends for?? Right??"

"I promise, I'll be always at your side Diao"

"What kind of drink you drank last night and you became drama queen today??" he sneered at him then he pulled Kuea in a hug. He finally feels the comfort he's been wanting in his life.

Another day came and Kuea goes back to Keerati's mansion. Because he has been in their mansion since Friday so he came so that he won't be suspected of anything that they didn't know.

"Young Master Kuea" the head maid called his name and the other maid was queue side by side he welcome him just like he was from the royal family.

He's been raised here since he came out to this world. He still gets flustered when he was treated like this.

"Mom, Dad, and even grandfather weren't here around. You shouldn't have done that again" the head maid was shaking his head.

"We refuse your request Young Master Kuea. You are the youngest member of Keerati. You should be treated special" he only shook his head at this belief.

That's why he doesn't want to come home to their mansion.

He took a bath and prepare himself for today's class. He was a sophomore at a prestigious university in Thailand. He is taking an engineering course.

Syn, Ton, Nunchy, and Jaab were in their seats when Kuea just came in.

"I can feel the presence of bad spirit coming in our way" Syn stated in his infamous low tone voice. Jaab and Ton mouthed "Amen" quickly. This is Kuea's friend's everyday situation.

"Wait?? Are you saying Kuea had a bad spirit??" Nunchy asked him but he only just ignore her which makes Nunchy shake her head.

Kuea just shrugged as he seated beside Syn.

The professor just came in time. "Alright class, someone from another year was taking my class. Let's welcome your new classmate Nuer" a guy came out from the door.

He was handsome, he had tanned skin, and his eyes were average but quite charming.

"Hi, everyone. I'm Nuer and nice to meet you all" every corner of the room clapped for him. Especially came from most of the girls.

Syn from his seat he was just stunned to see someone gorgeous like him.

"You may seat beside Mr. Keerati" the professor points to the vacant seat from the left where Kuea is seated.

Nuer eyed Kuea who didn't make any eye contact with him. He quickly grinned. He can take off his eyes to Kuea.

Syn's mood change quickly when he realized that this Nuer guy was looking weirdly at his friend Kuea.

"He is the bad spirit" he should be saying that in his head but it turns out that he spoke it out that loud.

"Syn? what gibberish did you just say???" the professor reacted to Syn. He immediately apologized.

Nuer smirked on the other side.

"Looks like, I am going to enjoy attending this class"
