Lover Boy || ZeeNunew

Chapter 11

Nunew was a bit worried about today. They had to shoot today and that means he had to talk to Zee. It's not that he doesn't want to but after the incident in Chiang Rai, he couldn't bare to talk to his Hia. How could Zee play with him like that? If this happened in an event or an interview which it did Nunew would simply shake it off as he assumed it was just for fanservice. But a big part of him wished it wasn't. A big part of him wished that Zee really liked him. But now he confirmed that the man didn't and he was hopelessly lost in Zee. And he hated that he wanted to talk to Zee to touch him to hug him again so much. He hated how much he craved being near him. He hated it. 

That night Nunew cried himself to sleep. This morning when he had gotten up he simply got ready and walked out of his condo and his driver drove him to set. He knew Zee was already there as he had texted him this morning. Since Nunew refused to talk to Zee, the man has been pleading with Nunew to forgive him. There were texts on his phone every minute. But instead of replying he ignored most of them. The nights he hated himself the most he would read them one by one and cry. 

When he arrived the at the set, there Zee was standing in front of the doors looking at his phone. Nunew paused. He hadn't seen him in a while. And there he stood looking as gorgeous as ever. But his under eyes were visible and he looked like a ghost. Nunew suddenly felt sorry for him but anger rose within him shoving the sadness away. He got out of the car and headed towards the door not sparing a glance at Zee. 

As soon as Zee saw Nunew he rushed towards the younger but did not grab his hand like usual. 

"Nhu~ Nhu please talk to me na." 

Zee's eyes watered and his voice faltered. Nunew's heart broke at the desperation in the man's voice. he sounded so tired. He felt guilty about ignoring him. He knew Zee did not HAVE to like him after all he dated plenty of girls back in high school but he just hoped. And to Nunew he knew that he was acting rash and stupid at the moment but he just couldn't talk to him. 

The younger walked past Zee and towards P'Aof who seemed surprised at the turn of events. 

What happened to his actors?!

Nunew flashed a small smile at P'Aof who was concerned as Zee walked over and stopped a few inches behind Nunew.

"Zee, Nhu--everything is okay right?" 

A second passed and the two nodded, Grief filled their eyes and P'Aof clearly did NOT believe them but he let them back in. They had to finish filming earlier today. With Zee and Nunew's little trip to Chiang Rai, filming got pushed back by a week and the show must conclude before the deadline. But he was sure to talk to them by the end of the day. He was worried and he needed to make sure they were fine.

"CUT~" The director called out in frustration. 

"Mai Mai Mai!! Nunew, Zee--Ah you two! What happened? What is wrong? This is supposed to be - sad a tender moment. We've re-done this scene almost 20 times now. We always finish scenes like this in one take. What happened?! This is our last scene na." 

The set was panicked, frustrated, and lacked chemistry. Actually, there was chemistry overflowing the charts at the moment but not the type of chemistry needed for this scene. The tension in the room was overwhelming and everyone was surprised to see Zee and Nunew did not talk to each other. When they did it would be short brief emotionless words. It was truly surprising. No one would EVER believe that Zee and Nunew fought. A fight? What was that? But now...now they questioned everything. 

"Sorry P' we'll try again." Nunew grasped a hold of himself and brought himself into Nu Kuea. 

"Come on Nhu! You can be mad later...now...you must finish this." Nunew muttered under his breath and attempted his best puppy eyes at Zee who's eyes softened yet a glint of sadness was found somewhere in the depths of those ocean eyes that Nhu loved.
