ฉันก็รักคุณ [I Love You Too] [Completed]

I looked at Jeff, red-faced as he pulled away from the hug. It definitely left me blushing, though I can not say I disliked it. It felt comforting having him hold me.

He cleared his throat; breaking up whatever was going down that very moment with us. Jeff told me to go in and directed me towards his room to place my things, but this time, I told him I would take the guest bedroom. I steered towards that room to place my things in and turned around only to see Jeff pouting sullenly at me. I chuckled as I promised him that it was good enough and that I had to stop commandeering his bedroom after knowing it was actually his.

"I had already told my manager on the way that I will be here till my next doctor visit on Thursday when we take the cast off. She's absolutely OK with it. She suspended my jobs for this week anyway."

"That's good. And you are taking the cast off on Thursday? That's fast."

"It will be a week, Phi. But it's only Sunday today. I will still be here for at least 4 more days."

Jeff just smiled at me and turned away. I told him I would shower, change, and then join him. He offered to make me a snack and I nodded. I joined Jeff on the couch about 30 minutes later and he had a bowl of popcorn and fruit ready for me.

"Phi? Do you think I'm a child? Why are the snacks all so kid friendly?"

"I cannot be offering you beer and finger food. You are taking medications so stay off the alcohol and fried food for a bit."

"Gosh, is this how you are as a boyfriend? I pity your girlfriend."

I muttered lowly, grumbling as I ate the popcorn.

"I don't have a girlfriend. And even if I do, it will be a boyfriend but he will be a very lucky man to have me looking after him so conscientiously."

"Aren't you so full of yourself, na Phi?"

Jeff chuckled but his smile died down a bit as he looked at me.

"You are ok that I like boys?"

"Why not, Phi? You are free to like whom you want."

"How about you, Ta? Do you like anyone?"

"Not now Phi. But I have always had a soft spot for girls who are slightly on the shorter side and have long hair. Plus they must be family oriented and funny."

"I see. That's good."

Jeff trailed off as he told me to eat. I continued eating my popcorn and fruit, unaware that my words had caused a ruffle within Jeff.

But I couldn't help but realize that I had felt a little displaced by the hug earlier from Jeff. It wasn't an unpleasant kind of feeling but rather I felt comforted by his hug and if he had continued hugging me longer, I wouldn't have minded it.

But as I discreetly turned to look at him, I couldn't help but realize the last I felt that way was around my ex girlfriend and Jeff was far from my interpretation of an ideal girlfriend. Clearly, I had been single way too long. Jesus.
