[ GunKrist ] You Are My Blue

02. Blue Memory

[ How do I keep the conversation going?
It's all my fault for being too timid
I only know to watch you giggle
What do I do?
But I never expect that you would hold me in your arms... ]

[ flashback ]

That day, they had just finished their lunch together, and Krist decided that he would come with Gun to his photo studio as his gratitude, because Gun had accompanied him for a half day at the recording studio in the downtown.  Krist had insisted that Gun didn't have to do that, but Gun told him that he also had nothing to do. He thought that observing Krist composing and arranging music could be an interesting experience totally worth his time. It might also help him gain more knowledge about music production.

"Of course I want to learn to how to create music from a really good producer!"

Krist remembered Gun's radiant face when saying those words. That enchanting, perfect smile that was so quintessentially his, enough to infatuate Krist.

Let's go back to when they were moving together on the path to Gun's photo studio.

They couldn't stop teasing each other while walking side by side, and obviously there had to be some random jokes to toss into their conversation. Krist swore to God that he wished the road would never end, so that they could never reach the photographic studio as he truly felt happy spending every moment with Gun. He didn't ask for anything more than that because it was all he wanted the most.

The talk was going on, then all of sudden someone showed up and gripped Krist's wrist, so tightly it hurt and he almost fell backwards. Gun became wary, so he turned around and saw Krist's (ex) boyfriend. That guy held Krist's wrist so roughly that he had to grit his teeth, trying to endure the pain.

"Fuck, let him go!"

Gun strongly pulled the arm of Krist's (ex) lover away from Krist's wrist. He quickly blew on the sore spot with his mouth, as if he endeavored to prevent the red blotch from spreading all over his arm.

"This is none of your business, you- son of a bitch!"

He threw a menacing look to Gun, but Gun was not afraid of him, even one bit.

"So, hah- this guy is the reason why you dumped me yesterday? Your new toy? Your taste this time is really bad, Krist."

The guy approached Krist, who now looked like that he was ready to strangle the person in front of him at any moment for arriving on the scene, most importantly, right when he was with Gun.

"Wh- What!! .. What did you say?? You were the one who dumped me, it was you, bastard! You said you wanted to end this relationship because you felt like I'd never cared nor paid attention to you, and you know what? I did exactly what you asked!"

Krist grabbed him by the collar and pushed him back, making Gun grin proudly. However, that satisfying feeling couldn't last for too long as Gun saw Krist's (ex) boyfriend was about to throw a slap with his left hand. Unfortunately, Krist didn't notice that because he was still immersed in the argument and kept cursing his ex.

Gun pushed Krist aside so he wouldn't get hit by that blow.

It happened so fast that before Krist could be aware of everything, he already fell on the ground. When turning to the left, he saw his (ex) boyfriend striking Gun on his left cheek, so strong that it immediately swole and bruised.
