The New Me

It All Fell Down

"Sky."

"My Sky."

"My darling Sky."

"Will you just stop?" Sky asked Prapai.

The next morning found them both cuddling in bed. Sky was trying to rest, though Prapai had other ideas.

"I can't call you my darling?" Prapai asked.

"No, I'm not your darling. I slept with you so you'd stop pestering me."

"Fine. You're not my darling. Because you're my honey." Prapai said with the biggest smile.

While laughing, Sky said, "I'm not your honey either."

"If you say so." Prapai said before kissing Sky on the cheek.

"Hey!" Sky yelled while rubbing his cheek.

"You know, I still don't know everything about you. For example, you're favorite foods?" Prapai asked.

"And yet you continue to buy me different foods and take me to different restaurants." Sky replied.

"Well I would buy you what you like and take you where you want to go, if you'd only tell me."

"I can eat pretty much everything though I don't like noodles." Sky said.

"Noted. What about... Mountains or sea?" Prapai asked.

"Mountains."

"Romance or actions movies?"

"Action."

"Favorite color?"

"Emerald green."

"Bloodtype?"

"P'Pai."

"Okay. Okay. I was just asking." Prapai said with a light chuckle.

"Oh right. I wanted to ask you about your family. You've never told me about them."

"You've never told me about you're family either." Sky said.

"I suppose I haven't. They're a bit complicated. If I tell you about my family, will you tell me about yours?" Prapai asked.

"Who said I wanted to know more about you?"

"Well, I want you to know about me. I want you to accept me. Do you think that is too much to ask for from you?" Prapai asked softly.

Sky turned around to completely face Prapai. He found himself wanting to know more. He wanted Prapai to know about him as well. Though he didn't want to share all of his secrets quite yet.

"No. That's not too much to ask." Sky said.

"Actually Payu and I are cousins. I have two dads. Their names are Kinn and Porsche. I have two younger siblings. A younger brother named Plerng andnd a younger sister named Phan. My family can be quite crazy. We're all very loud and confident. You should see us when we have family dinners. Sometimes, it feels like we all want to kill each other. Yet whenever there's trouble, with just a phone call, we all somehow manage to work together."

"That must be nice. Growing up in a big family." Sky said.

"Nice isn't the word I would use. Regardless, I couldn't have asked for a better family." Prapai said.

"I'm afraid my family isn't quite as glamorous as yours. My parents divorced when I was really young. My mom moved to a different country. We visit each other every once in a while. I grew up with just my dad. I moved away to the city for high school and I've been here ever since."
