Watch me Shine (bl)

73

Listening to all of these Julian finally realised, it was him that didn't deserve Kaia. It was him that wasn't worthy. He finally released his hold and set Kaia free. As if for one last time he decided to take his chance.

He looked up to meet Kaia's eyes only to see them red. Ah this was his fault. He made Kaia cry..... Again. He knew there was not hope and yet he still said.

J - i can change..... Whatever it is you don't like i won't do it. If there's even a small bit of empty space in your heart i want to be there.

Kaia still cried and said, "I'm sorry."

Julian summoned all his courage to smile. He finally stood up and wiped Kaia's tears with his hands.

While still smiling at him he said, " it's okay..... It's okay.... Thank you for everything. Thank you for taking me in. Thank you for loving me. Thank you for staying by my side. I'm sorry you had to be alone. I'm sorry."

Julian finally kissed Kaia on his forehead and wished him luck. Kaia realising that he had been let go smiled back at Julian and said good night.

Akerian who was finally relaxing in his bed heard the door rang.

A - Who the fuck is here?!

He angrily went to open the door. He was suprised to see Kaia flushed and his eyes red standing in this cold night.

A - Kai-......

Before he could finish Kaia jumped at him and put his lips on his. Although a bit tipsy Akerian hold Kaia and gladly accepted the kiss. Until they finally released each other to catch some breadth Kaia said...

"I love you"

Akerian who was in disbelief broke out into tears.

A - i.... I love you toooo..... ahhh...

He cried.

Is this a day for crying Kaia thought.

" And the award for Best Actor of the year goes to........ Kaia Lee." The announcer yelled.

The whole stadium stadium applaud and Kaia dressed in white tux with a black bow come into the stage. His hair slicked back and his face glowing with a smile.

His role as the General in his recent movie moved everyone. His performance shook everyone to the core. The feelings of the General while encouraging his men, his delivery of the General's speech captured everyone's attention. The General's glorious death beautifully performed. And thus he became one of the best actor this year.

Kaia was finally able to fullfill his dream. He became an actor and he still ran his parents bakery. He may be late in life but he was still able to get to this point.

Everyone cheered as he gave his speech. Akerian looking at him proudly and clapping louder than anyone.

When the award was over and they came out all the cameras turned to Kaia. Every interviewer wanting to get his attention. Akerian who was by Kaia's side slowly released Kaia's hand from his arm and he stepped away.

Little by little Akerian was able to get through the paparazzi, finally he turned back to look. There Kaia was shining, cameras capturing every side of him, his smile, the way he looked at the reporters one after another Akerian took it all in. He smiled as he sees this man shining brighter than the moon tonight. This was where he belonged, being recognised by everyone for his talent.

In the opposite street there parked a familiar black car. Just like Akerian the man inside took everything in. His eyes never left the man with the most beautiful smile.

J - You look beautiful

He said as if the other could hear him. This time they were so far. He knew he could never reached him now. In Kaia's world he doesn't belong there. He doesn't deserve it.

In the end he couldn't hold it in any longer and drove away. Crying in vein, regretting his actions. Upset that another man saw this in Kaia earlier than he did. He couldn't look back to that man who was glowing tonight. He drove away alone, back to his lonely apartment.

A - Tired?

K - Hm... I didn't expect to greet so many people.

A - Good let's have dinner.

Kaia smiled and said okay.

Akerian drove them to the restaurant that they went before. This time Kaia was excited he can now pay for his food. So he felt a bit proud.

When they came and sat down. The manager greeted them and gave them their menu. Kaia could hear the whispers about him by now he was used to it. He was after all a celebrity now. And their relationship was open to the public.

K - What the?!!

A - what? Something wrong?

K - The price.... It's cheaper than before... Almost by half now.

A - Oh yeah I changed it.

K - What?

Akerian smiled and said, "This is my restaurant. I own it."
