Unwanted Butterflies {OffGun}

CHAPTER 2

For the first time in his entire acquaintance, Tay looked serious. Gun couldn't explain why, but he noticed how the older man opened and closed his mouth as if wanting to say something to him, but hesitating.

It was in the library where he observed that the other looked from side to side a lot and sighed again.

Ok, that's it, tell me what's wrong. You've been thinking and sighing all day, you've got me nervous - Gun spoke, facing the other - did I do something that bothered you? You can tell me.

Tay looked at him in surprise before smiling and biting his lower lip shyly.

Shit...you haven't done anything wrong Gun...it's just...I'm jealous.

Gun watched as he ran his hands over his head and messed up his hair. He really didn't understand what the other was referring to.

Jealous? About me? What did I do?

How long have you been friends with Off Jumpol? -He asked, staring at him -or are you dating him? Tell me the truth, don't lie to me.

The tension was noticeable, it was obvious that he was trying to control himself, but he looked incredibly upset. Almost waiting for a truth that would destroy their friendship. Gun knew that there was no kind of relationship with Off, but for a moment he was afraid of losing his only friend.

First of all, calm down - he responded softly - he's not my friend, I don't go out with him, I just tutor him.

Do you really think I'm stupid? -the other spoke with a red face -Off is very intelligent, the best in his class, why would he need tutoring from a beginner like you?

This time it was Gun's turn to be annoyed. He stood up and picked up his things, totally offended.

Look, if you want to believe me, it's your problem, I have nothing to hide from you. That's simply the truth, I don't understand why you care so much but I'm not going to allow you to disrespect me, good luck with you.

Even though he was shaking, Gun took his things and held back his tears. It was the first time he fought and raised his voice at a friend.

He continued his journey fleeing from that place until he collided with someone.

Hey... are you okay? -That voice was familiar and that comforted him a little.

Oab... -he whispered and the first tear came out of his eyes.

The oldest took him by the arm and guided him under a tree so that he could sit next to him and calm down. He gave him some water to drink and rubbed his head until the tears stopped. Gun felt stupid, he knew that argument was stupid and to conclude he was now humiliating himself in front of the boy he liked.

Will you tell me now what happened to you? -the other asked him softly while his head rested on his shoulder -I promise you that whatever it is has a solution.

Gun felt him take his hand and rub it slowly, calming him on the one hand, but stirring his heart on the other.

As best she could, she spoke and told him what had happened. That hand never stopped caressing him, if anyone saw them they would think they were a couple. The image of them together under a tree holding hands and with their heads next to each other was a scene of love before all eyes.

"I'm sure there is an explanation," the older man said, smiling and pointing to the front, "and you'll most likely discover it in the next few minutes."

Tay walked over to them with a couple of drinks in her hands. A clear sign of peace.

Gun...can we talk? - he asked softly.
