When the shoot ends, the three couples split paths and P'Jane appears magically to take Singto home. "Are you coming Krist?" He asks and waits as the two young men converse smoothly with just their eyes and eyebrows.
"Yeah." Krist says at last and Jane herds them out to the car.
On the way home, he stops and grabs dinner for them all, and while he's gone, the uncomfortable silence that has descended since Off had started egging them on about Practice Girlfriend's, continues to surround them.
"Is it weird?" Singto asks and Krist nods and then reaches out to link their little fingers together, overlapping them on Singto's knee, trying to show him that he's not mad about it at all, he's just a little overwhelmed by their friend's suggestions.
When Jane starts the car again, hot food on the front seat beside him, they stay like that, fingers locked together until the car stops again and they jolt apart.

At Singto's they settle into their usual routine when they have a fan meeting coming up. Singto runs the schedule several times, trying to set it in his head while Krist throws out adlibs and lines they can try and makes both Jane and Singto laugh as they get more and more insane!
"You really think Mae Godji is going to let you say that?" Jane says, eyes wet with tears of laughter.
"Nah, but I'd really love to see P'Wave try to translate it!" Krist admits and then jolts as Singto falls against him, crying in distress as he clutches his sides.
"Stop it, Kit! I can't breathe!"
Jane looks between them and shakes his head, mouth twitching as though he wants to say something of note. But he takes a deep breath and then smiles, "Right, I've got to drive tomorrow, so I'm headed for bed, Sing. Krist, will you be okay with a bike or taxi?"
"Yeah, that's fine. I'm not tired yet, still a bit high on adrenaline from today to be honest. Are we going to play, P'Sing?"
Singto nods and wishes his manager a good sleep and then he and Krist lose themselves in their game, grumbling at each other as usual as they chase around on the brightly coloured screen.
It's been more than an hour and Krist is just saying that he needs to leave to go sleep, when the first streak of lightning flashes in the dim room.
"Shia!" Krist says, rushing to the window to see that it's pouring with rain. "It'll take an age to get home in that! There's no point in me trying to leave now, Phi. Maybe it'll be over in an hour or so, though.."
Singto joins him, arm pressed against his as they stare out at the flooded streets, "It's okay, just stay."
Krist looks up at him, "Even after today?"
"Yes, Kit. Especially after today."

They wash up quickly (avoiding full showers since the lightning is still flashing overhead) and then meet in Singto's room, Krist in borrowed shorts and a vest since P'Jane is already asleep where he stores his clothes. "Okay?" Singto asks as he crawls into bed, patting Krist's preferred side.
"Yeah, okay." Krist agrees and makes his way round to get in beside him.
The light goes out and then it's just the sound of the crashing thunder and the occasional flash of lightning as the rain continues to fall steadily.
In the dark, feeling brave, Singto breaks the silence, "Kit, khap?"
Krist shuffles, their elbows brushing against each other as he moves around, "Hmm?"
