"You want me to order for you?" Gemini asked Fourth who clueless looking at the menu with wrinkle head. He happily ordered on behalf of him when Fourth nodded.
Today they went eating out with Mark and Ford. The couple comes to visit Pa and after they invited them to have lunch together.
Gemini lean on the chair and put his head on Fourth shoulder. Both arm circling Fourth waist. Whenever he have a chance, Gemini will touch his husband.
Fourth push his head, excusing himself to the washroom. He is not comfortable with public display affection show by Gemini. He felt suffocated being cuddle by him.
“I’ll go with you.” Gemini let go of his hand on Fourth waist.
“No need, I can go on my own.”
“You guys okay? Fourth kind of uncomfortable.” Mark making a remark, it’s clear Fourth not really interested hanging out with them, he seems off. Ford nodded agree with his lover.
“We’re okay.” He answer confidently earning both eyes round in disbelief.
“Really? Did he forgive you? I don’t expect Fourth is that easy.” Ford have doubt that Fourth will simply forgive and forget what Gemini have done to him.
“We never converse about that yet. He said he’s moving on, not interested to recall things in the past.”
“What you mean never talk? Sooner or later you have to face it.” Ford concerned about his friend relationship.
“How can I talk to him if he said he’s moving on. Isn’t it the same meaning asking me to shut my mouth.” Gemini himself felt frustrated. What he heared every time he asked for forgiveness Fourth said he’s forgiven.
“Do you think Fourth marrying you because he still loves you or family arrangement?”
“That.....I’m not sure.” Gemini clearly know why Fourth agreed, whoever close with them can tell.
"Hah? What’s with you? You should ask him? Saying it like this is the same like admitting he were forced to marry you.” Mark complaining, he rubbed his nape.
“I already told him that he didn't have to marry me if he had to. It’s okay to back out yet he agreed with the idea."
“As expected from Fourth, he is the most kind hearted person I know.” Ford amazed with his friend who sacrifice himself for others.
“I guessed he just return the favour of Ma and Pa, not doing it because he still likes you.” Ford said, he wrap his arm around his boyfriend.
"Why asked then?." Gemini rolled his eyes when they stated the fact.
“What’s your plan?”
“I make him fell in love with me again, now we’re married make it easier for me to court him.” He answered earnestly.
“Just don’t overdo it.” Mark advised.
“I’m not going to force him. I wait until he open up to me again.”
“If I were him you have to wait forever.” Mark mocking him. He sympathize with Fourth yet can do nothing to help him.
“You’re not Fourth.” From deep inside, he could feel that Fourth didn't hate him. Gemini admit he disappointed him to the point where it's hard to make a Fourth trust him.
“He doesn’t love you, I’m not seeing any sparks on his eyes anymore.” Ford purposely said that.
“I told you I will make him fall in love with me, you guys should support me.” Gemini tired repeating his word all over. His mistake forever haunted him. He want to redeem himself proving he is worthy for Fourth.
“Sorry Gem, you’re on your own. We’re not taking your side even we’re close to you. You know it well who we’re rooting for.” Ford being honest. Fourth have it hard, he has been cheated.
All of them stop talking when their food arrived. They started digging in, Gemini wait for Fourth.
“Guys, see there. Gem save him.” The word making all of them look at direction pointed by Mark. Fourth is blocked by someone.
Gemini quickly get up from his seat interested to know what happened with the stranger and his husband.
“Babe,” Gemini called Fourth as he approached them. He wrapped his arm around Fourth's waist, wanting to show the man in front of them Fourth belonged to him.
“Who are you?” asked the guy to him.
“I’m his husband, and you’re?” Gemini proudly announce. Without waiting an answer from the guy Gemini looked down to meet Fourth eyes.
“Baby your friend?” Fourth shakes his head. Gemini glance his eyes on the stranger.
“Sorry, I thought you were single. Now excuse me.” With that excuse he leave them. Gemini eyes never left the man until he did not see any of his shadow.
"Okay?" He checked Fourth condition from above head until his shoe, his left thumb rubbed the Fourth's cheek.
"He's not doing anything. Now hands off." Fourth displease with his action.
“Let go.” Fourth said again, he tried to break away Gemini strong hand on his. Gemini ignore, dragging him back to the table.
"What happened?" Ford asked being nosy.
"Just a flirty man asking for my contact." Fourth answer. He started eating while Gemini gazing him in disbelief. Fourth said like it's normal for him being flirt making him jealous all of sudden.
"Eat Gem. You will not full just from staring." Mark scoffed at him, Ford laughing.
Fourth squinting at his husband. Gemini still have his eyes on him.
"Eat." Fourth instruct.

After lunch both pair making thier own way. Gemini bring Fourth to the famous jewellery boutique.
"Why are we here?" Fourth asking when they stop in front of the shop. Stopping his walks and look up to him.
"To buy a ring for us." Last time during registration they don't exchange any ring.
All things done too quick, Gemini did not have time to prepare. He want to choose it together with Fourth, thus he decided to wait.
"Because you don't have ring on your finger making people simply thought you're single."
Gemini reason making Fourth laugh hard, he did not expect Gemini have this pety side on him.
"I'm serious baby." Gemini drag him inside, he just follow. To him, it's not important because he not sure how long this marriage will last.
