Love At First Sight

chapter III

Joong and Pond became really close forming a bond on their shared love of dance, they would text each other, FaceTime each other and often tease each other.

They mostly teased each other about their ship-partners, it was evident that Pond was smitten with Phuwin. The older was always so gentle and soft towards Phuwin, and would always get shy when the younger would teasingly flirt with him.

Joong was no different, except he would mostly initiate the flirting and Dunk wasn't shy either always leaving Joong fluttered. Especially during filming or whenever they had interviews together.

Today they were promoting their series, Star in my mind with their co-stars. So before the live event Joong was hanging out with Pond in one of the changing rooms.

"Meung you have been watching that way too long." Pond said turning Joong's phone around.

Joong was sitted there watching the kissing scene between Daonuea and Khabkluen.

"I am just analyzing my work." Joong said turning his phone to resume watching the kissing scene.

Pond rolled his eyes and said "yeah right, I will pretend like I believe you."

"Whatever!" Joong scoffed.

"Tell me friend, do you have a thing for Dunk?" Pond asked sitting next to his friend drapping his arm around his shoulder.

Joong looked at him and rolled his eyes, "I could ask you the same with Ai'Phuwin."

"What are you talking about? You know Phuwin and I just friends." Pond replied retreating his arms from Joong's shoulder.

"Same applies with me and Dunk, we are just friends." Joong replied and Pond hummed skeptically.

One of the staff members called Joong over to touch up on his make-up before the live.

During the live Joong and Dunk were being JoongDunk, subtle touches that were not subtle and the continues flirting between them.

They were more comfortable with each other, especially now that their mothers have gotten to know each other. Dunk was probably Joong's closest friend, he knew Joong probably more than any of his friends. Which was inevitable judging by the amount of time they spent on the phone.

Every night they would spend probably an hour or two on FaceTime.

Even their co-stars thought that there were genuinely in love because they would be still be lovey-dovey behind scenes, with cameras off. Surely it can't be just fanservice. However the two would insist that they were just friends.

And indeed they were just friends, really close friends.

After the live event the two disappeared again, Joong took Dunk out on a lunch date. Joong being a big food enthusiast would often take Dunk out to his favorite food spots, he loved sharing his favorite activities with Dunk.

After they arrived at the resturant, they put in their orders.

"So we will be going to safe house in two days time, are you ready?" Dunk asked.

"Yeah already packed and everything. Are you ready?" Joong replied.

"Whoa! I am impressed Archen, yeah I am ready but my mom was the one doing all the packing." Dunk replied.

"You are such a momma's boy." Joong replied teasing Dunk.

"I am just a baby." Dunk replied in a cutesy voice.

"Yes you are. My baby." Joong replied, making Dunk's breath hitch wondering if he heard the boy right.

You would think after months of being together he would've gotten used to Joong's flirting but nope, he still got flustered everytime Joong would bluntly flirt with him.
