When Prem woke up, the room was eerily quiet. After looking around, he remembered that this was a hotel room, and that Boun was not there.

Prem nestled under the quilt, slowly recalling one thing after another last night, including the embarrassing things he did. More than the shame, it was the heartache and bitterness of knowing that Boun had no love for him. Since falling in love with Boun, Prem's mood has been ups and downs like a roller coaster, and he accidentally gave a big reversal.

Feeling depressed and irritable, he retracted his head into the quilt and shouted. It seemed that after some release, he got up and went to the toilet to wash.

Boun was sitting on his bed when he came out, smiling at Prem.

"Pao, I packed breakfast for you, eat it quickly, it won't taste good if it's cold."

Prem tried so hard to hide his embarrassment that he didn't even dare to look directly at Boun's face, so he bowed his head and said thank you. He kept thinking about how to quickly leave this space.

Boun hesitated and said, "Pao, can we have a talk after breakfast?"

Prem's heart skipped a beat, he didn't want or be afraid of Boun bringing up what happened last night.  He wasn't mentally prepared to face Boun and the showdown that was coming.

"I...I want to go out and buy a bottle of water." Prem made an excuse and got up to leave.

Boun sensed something was wrong with Prem, and quickly pulled him back.

"Prem, let's talk, just for a while."

As soon as the acid in his heart welled up, tears began to fall uncontrollably.  "You don't even call me Pao anymore..."

Boun also panicked, and coaxed Prem while wiping away his tears: "Don't cry, don't cry, I really don't know what to say or do."

Prem stepped back to avoid Boun's hand, and smiled reluctantly. "I'm fine. We can still be good friends, right?"

"But, I don't want to be your good friend."

"Don't even want to be a good friends...?" Prem took a deep breath and nodded. He thought in his heart, well, I agree, can you let me go?

But at the next moment, Boun embraced the man in his arms, with more and more force.

"Pao, don't let me wait any longer. Let me be your boyfriend, will you? I don't know how to prove that I really like you very much. I'm afraid that I will do something wrong, and you will be angry and scared away. I don't want to wait any longer, can I?"

Prem thought he was ready to get off at the destination, but this roller coaster took Prem to the high point again.

"You really like me?"

"Really. I can explain to you the question you asked me last night. I just think that I am chasing you now, I have to respect you and can't hug you without your consent. I'm not alienated you."

Boun let go of Prem's hand and looked at Prem seriously.  "You are the first person I chase after, I really don't know how to do it better. Where did I do wrong, can you tell me?"

The people in front of him are full of sincerity and love, and Prem's grievances have long been forgotten.

"Okay."

"Then... be my boyfriend, okay?"

"Okay."

Both of them were blushing, and then they looked at each other and smiled, hugging each other.

"You drank so much last night, are you feeling sick now?"

"A little..."

"Don't drink so much next time."

"Um......"

"Do you still want to eat breakfast? It's cold."

"Eat!" After a pause for a few seconds, Prem said again, "You don't think I'm fat again, do you?"

"Pao, I don't think you're fat. I don't want you to eat too many potato chips because it's unhealthy. Besides, the coach has already registered me for the Swimming Competition in Bangkok University a month later. He asked me who else in the swimming team I thought would be suitable, and I recommended you..."

"What! I don't want to participate in..."

"Why?"

"I am a desireless person, the competition is too troublesome, and the thought of strengthening the training makes me tired. And even if I went, I couldn't get the ranking..."

"Don't underestimate yourself. The coach agrees with me. We both think that you have the strength, but you often indulge yourself to eat too many snacks, you will get fat, and then you will slow down. As long as you have a little control, and then strengthen your training, you will have no problem getting the ranking."

"Can I really..." Prem still didn't look confident at all.

"Next year I'm going to do an internship in my senior year. This competition is the last swimming competition I participated in. Ohm will also participate, do you think I can beat him once?"

"Yes! Of course!" He may not be confidence, but when it comes to Boun, Prem is full of confidence.

"Thank you, Pao. Would you like to join me in the competition?"

"Okay. No problem." It doesn't matter whether he gets the ranking or not, the most important thing is that he can accompany Boun as a boyfriend.

If Prem is Boun's salvation, then Boun hopes that he is not a drag, but can hold Prem's hand and move forward together.

"Pao, I don't know if we can be together forever, but I just want to be with you for as long as possible, to experience joys and sorrows together, and to see the colorful world together."

Boun's words are very true and sincere, but for Prem, a person who has never been in love, a person who is full of expectations for love, he can't help but feel a little lost and sad.

Prem has never fallen in love with anyone, nor is he afraid of losing anyone. The living environment, whether parents or friends, has given Prem a sense of security and trust. Everything seems to be smooth and beautiful, and there are no major ups and downs, so Prem has an easy-going personality, a strong heart, and no excessive worries.

From the moment he realized he liked Boun, Prem longed to have Boun. But now that they are sure that they like each other and are going to be together for real, Prem is afraid instead. It may be that he likes Boun too much, so seeing Boun's excellence and kindness, the uncertainty in his heart becomes more and more obvious.

Boun said that he would experience joys and sorrows  with him, and go to see the colorful world together. The sentence is so alluring that Prem's insecurities are quickly masked.

It seems that the change in the relationship made the two of them a little at a loss, not knowing how to stand beside each other as boyfriends.

When they were assembled, Mew kept secretly watching the two people, they seemed to be reconciled, and there was no unhappy expression.  But it's not like usual, it looks a little awkward.

He pulled Prem aside and asked in a low voice.  "You and P'Boun... all right?"

"We're okay."

"What happened to you two last night?"

Mew really cared, but Prem thought differently, looking in Boun's direction, his face suddenly became hot.

"No! Nothing happened! Don't make wild guesses!"

"Why are you so excited." Mew was also taken aback by Prem's sudden increase in volume.

"Pao, get in the car." Boun came over and took Prem's wrist and walked away, and took Prem's luggage bag with the other hand.

Leave the inexplicable Mew in place.
