LET'S SAY

Preview

IAME- I took a long time on this, I've had an idea for this when RECOVER was in its writing phase but to this day I've not completely figured out how I should write this story. So, while I try to write on something I have little knowledge of I'm dropping this preview beforehand Hehe

"hey"

"Khao?"

"Hey! You okay?"

"Huh-ohh"

"You were contacted too?" First snuggled closely to him resting his head on Khaotung's shoulder tiredly.

"Mm"

"What should we do now?" They both were quiet as they contemplated two main choices the decision was to be taken on.

First fiddled with their intertwined hands as his mind wandered off to the recent issues and their next advancement.

"Hey..." First quietly called him still playing with his fingers gently.

"Hmm?"

"Have you ever regretted it? Like even for a second, regretted us being together?" First didn't look up he just stared down at their hands but he felt the deep breath Khaotung released, he knew Khaotung was tired. So, was he.

Both wracked their brains but was there a clean way out of this, without messing anything? They couldn't find one, they had two important things on the line, what they loved and whom they loved. First wanted both and Khaotung was no different from him, they wanted both if they could. But time indicated otherwise, they didn't even have enough time to indulge themselves with their greed. The two co-joined boats were parting their ways to be stable they needed to put both their foot in one boat, one and only.

Time ticked to an hour of stillness and silence when Khaotung started first, "I've never regretted even once, never will I. Even when we are here, I'm glad that at least I can feel your warmth when I'm turning cold with fear and anxiety. It took me a lot of courage to accept us as we are now and I don't think I would ever want to break this. That's my part but I will respect whatever choice you make."

"Won't you be sad if I let go?" 

"I...never said I won't be, I'll try to understand it even if it's too hard..."

"Don't! You don't have to try to understand...cause letting you go will never be my choice. I believe we can make it together again just what we said today and have done till now shouldn't be choices we will look back with regret in the future. I wanted to make sure we both wanted this." First met Khaotung's eyes and softly spoke every word to him smiling gently till last.

"We won't" Khaotung smiled back as he engulfed First tightly.

"Yeah, we won't." The hold tightens as they feel their hurriedly beating heartbeats against each other.
