Autumn is a second spring

3. Man of the match

Did you see P' Ohm's new partner? He is forming a new ship as well😔😔😔. My hopes for seeing OhmFluke onscreen together are being dashed. 😭😭😭. All I can do is keep their ship sailing through my stories. 

"Where the hell have you been?" Yacht hissed in a low voice upon seeing the two people in front of him.

Ohm and Fluke were fashionably late to the venue. Seeing the red flush on both of their faces, Yacht didn't need to ask them why they were late.

The couple smiled at the older man cheekily.

"How can you two still be so lovey-dovey even after dating for such a long time?" Yacht asked as Ohm took a seat next to him.

"Because my man is hot and romantic," Fluke replied with a wink.

Yacht rolled his eyes at the answer.

"You can't blame us that your husband is not into all this, Phi khey[1]," Ohm said with a mischievous smile.

Yacht huffed and looked away. Ohm was obviously telling the truth. His husband, Oreo wasn't actually the kind that would like to display affection in public even though he was a freak in bed. He didn't have to tell that detail to Ohm.

"You two are lucky that your managers managed to come up with some silly ideas to stall time for you." Yacht said disapprovingly.

The couple had a guilty smile on their faces as they watched the other artists playing some random game that their managers suggested, that wasn't actually part of the schedule for the day. 

Those games had successfully diverted everyone's attention so that no one noticed the couple's absence.

Ohm opened a bottle of water and handed it to Fluke who took it with a smile.

The younger one took out a painkiller pill and popped it into his mouth. He was having a difficult time sitting down. Thankfully, the seats had cushions that went softer on his aching butt. 

"I am sorry, Noo. I will go gentler next time." Ohm apologised seeing Fluke in pain.

Fluke smacked Ohm's arms, trying to hide his blush. "There are people watching us." He glared at his boyfriend shyly.

Ohm chuckled finding his boyfriend's reaction cute. Even though they had been dating for a while, only a few people knew of that. Other than their managers, assistants and best friends, no one else had any idea that the duo was a couple.

In other's eyes, they were only on-screen partners who were best friends. Nothing more nothing less. Not even their families had found out about the matter even when they were fooling around right under their noses.

"I wish P' Boun and Prem was here." Fluke pouted. He was seriously missing that duo. The chaotic energy they brought along was something Fluke missed so much.

Ohm smiled thinly at his boyfriend's words. It had been so long since the four of them had hung out. After Prem returned to the National Team, they had rarely gotten any chance to see him. The same went for Boun. After taking over the Guntachai family business, Boun had been busy as a bee.

"If you two are done flirting, can we begin the award ceremony?" Bas, one of the singers under SZ Entertainment interrupted the couple.

The couple smiled at the younger guy.

"Then, I will get going." Ohm went ahead to join the MC on stage as the award ceremony started.

Fluke watched his boyfriend interacting with his fellow teammates.

"If I hadn't known better, I would have thought that you two were a thing," Bas commented standing next to Fluke.

Fluke swept his gaze to the baby-faced junior. "What makes you think we are not?" He raised his eyebrows.

"Nah. You guys are not." Bas looked at Fluke and then at Ohm before answering.

"I am asking you why you feel like that?" Fluke asked.

"Because it's obvious that P' Ohm is straight," Bas answered straightforwardly.

Fluke put on his plastic smile hearing Bas's reply not showing the real emotions on his face. His gaze lingered on the dimpled smile of his boyfriend."I guess you are right."

The award ceremony soon began. The winners of each category of sports received their medals. The blue team were the ultimate winner of the whole match with Ohm as the highest-scoring artist with Fluke on the toe. Their scores differed by a single point.

Everyone wrapped up after the award ceremony was completed. Ohm and Fluke got on their RV to head back home.

"Are you upset that I snatched the first place from you?" Ohm asked kissing Fluke's temples as the latter cuddled with him in the backseat of the RV.

"Don't be silly, phi." Fluke pressed himself against Ohm's biceps. "But you do have to compensate for my loss." He pouted and looked up at his boyfriend.

"Anytime, baby." Ohm was happy with the idea of providing compensation.

"Good." Fluke grinned widely, scooting closer to Ohm.

Ohm sighed dramatically. "Here I was, thinking that I was going to get some reward for being the 'man of the match'."

Fluke blinked vigorously seeing his boyfriend act sulky all of a sudden. "Hmm..." He acted as if he was deep in thought. "I could give you a reward." He said after a while.

"Really? I am getting a reward?" Ohm's face lit up in excitement.

The smaller guy had a haughty smile on his face. "Uh-huh."

"When?" Ohm knew his boyfriend was a very creative person who never failed to surprise him each time he got 'rewarded' or 'punished'. 

 "Maybe... after you return from South Korea?" Fluke suggested.

"Au? I have to wait that long?" Ohm pouted not wanting to wait for such a long time.

He was playing the second lead in a Korean drama whose shoot was beginning in a week. He was leaving for Seoul the very next day for the same purpose. It would take him at least two months to finish shooting his parts.

"Of Course, I need time to prepare your reward." Fluke smiled innocently.

Ohm pouted and turned away. He wanted the reward that very night. But from the way he had mashed up his boyfriend's back, it would be cruel to ask for it. He will have to patiently wait for the day he returns.

"I am sure that you are going to love it," Fluke whispered seductively in Ohm's ears. "I will make sure that your patience is worth it."

Ohm's lips curled up in as he heard his boyfriend's promise. He was already looking forward to the day already.

"Ohm" Yoon, Ohm's new manager called out.

Ohm turned to face his manager. "Khrab, phi?"

"I just got a call from Khun Ahn." Yoon started explaining about the phone call he had gotten from the Korean director.

As Ohm and Yoon discussed their further work schedule, Fluke put on his headphones and eye mask and shifted into a more comfortable position. He was already used to having Ohm getting all serious once the matters regarding work.

he knew that the artist-manager duo would take a long time to finalise everything. So, he decided to catch up on his sleep. He too had many works lined up for the next day. He didn't want his lack of proper rest to affect his performance at work.

The car moved smoothly over the urban road.
