In the gentle embrace of Serencove, Nunew and Zee continued to navigate the currents of their burgeoning connection. The days unfolded like chapters in a story, each moment a stroke on the canvas of their shared journey.
As the sun painted the sky in hues of morning, they found themselves drawn to the charm of Serencove's streets. Hand in hand, they explored the town, discovering hidden gems and creating memories amidst the whispers of the sea.
The beach, once witness to whispered confessions and tender kisses, became a sanctuary for quiet reflection. Beneath the expanse of the night sky, they shared dreams and aspirations, weaving the fabric of their future in the tapestry of Serencove's serendipity.
Nunew found himself staying at Zee's these days. He is happy that he has someone he can rely on even though they are not yet in relationship. The unexpected knock on the door interrupted Nunew's sketching, and he called out to Zee, who was in the kitchen preparing their food.
Nunew: (calling out) Zee, someone's at the door!
Zee, bustling with lunch preparations, responded from the kitchen.
Zee: (shouting) Could you please open it for me, Nunew? Thank you!
Curious, Nunew made his way to the door and opened it. To his surprise, three handsome men stood before him, looking equally surprised.
Zee, noticing the sudden quiet, stepped out of the kitchen and into the hallway, only to be met with the unexpected sight of his friends.
Zee: (stammering) Joss, Max, Net... What are you doing here?
Joss, a broad smile on his face, stepped forward.
Joss: (grinning) Surprise, Zee! We were in the area and thought we'd drop by. Didn't expect you to have company, though as Joss looked at Nunew smiling.
Net and Max chuckled at the unexpected turn of events.
Zee, regaining his composure, turned to Nunew with a shy smile.
Zee: (introducing) Nunew, these are my friends – Joss, Max, and Net. Guys, this is Nunew.
Nunew, slightly taken aback but warmly welcoming, extended a hand.
Nunew: Nice to meet you all.
Joss: (smirking) Zee didn't mention he had such a charming companion.
Max: (nodding while laughing) Yeah, Zee, spill the details!
Zee, feeling a playful blush creeping up, rolled his eyes at his friends' teasing.
Zee: (grinning) Alright, alright. Come on in, and let me finish lunch. We can catch up properly.
As Joss, Max, and Net entered the house, they warmly greeted Nunew, shaking his hand one by one. Joss, unable to resist expressing his admiration, couldn't help but compliment Nunew.
Joss: (smirking) Zee, you've been holding out on us. This guy is absolutely gorgeous.
Nunew, blushing at the unexpected compliment, thanked Joss with a smile. However, Zee, sensing a hint of jealousy, instinctively wrapped his arm around Nunew's waist.
Zee: Hands off, Joss. He's taken.
Max and Net chuckled at the playful exchange, settling into the living room as Zee invited them to sit.
Zee: (smirking) Make yourselves at home. I'll whip up something delicious for us.
While Zee busied himself in the kitchen, preparing the food he had cooked and the dishes his friends brought, Nunew joined him, eager to assist.
