Thai BL- One Shots

Friends with benefits

It all started on a random Tuesday afternoon. Gemini was cranky, sleep deprived,  stressed, and his girlfriend had broken up with him just 3 days before the midterm exams. So it was understandable that he was a little grumpy. He tends to lash out a lot when he is like this, and usually, the one on the receiving end of all his lashing out was his best friend and roommate Fourth.

Fourth was an understanding guy, kind to a fault, always with either a blinding smile on his face or a devious smirk. So it was safe to say that despite all these years they've been friends, Fourth never got angry at Gemini when he would lash out at him while he was in a bad mood. Usually, he would make him something to eat and tease him until Gemini felt somewhat better. 

And that is exactly what happened that random Tuesday afternoon. Gemini had snapped at Fourth and stormed off to his room. He doesn't remember what he had said. All he remembers is feeling really bad about it a couple of hours later. He walked out of his room intent in apologizing to his friend when he found Fourth in the kitchen humming a song finishing up cooking.

"You are just in time. I made you something to eat. I figured you must be hungry since you are all grumpy today. I made chicken curry and rice. And don't you worry, I dialled down on the spices. I know you have a palette of a toddler." Fourth had said kindly, a bright smile adorning his face.

"Fotfot... I am sorry I snapped at you." Gemini had said because he really did feel bad.

"Don't worry about it. I know you've been stressed lately. Besides, I am used to your mood swings." Fourth had said with a shrug. Seemingly hadn't taken offence to how Gemini had treated me earlier on.

"Still. I am sorry. It was -"

"It's fine. I get it. There's no need to get all sappy with me. I know you love and appreciate me because I am awesome etc etc. Now come and take a seat so we can eat before the food gets cold." Fourth had said with a teasing smile cutting Gemini's apology short once again.

Gemini smiled as he took a seat around the kitchen counter of their apartment, grateful to have a friend like Fourth. Someone who has never gotten tired of him throughout the years despite how insufferable he can be at times. Something his previous partners couldn't stand. Fourth has never once tried to change him, but he always tried to understand him. Fourth has always been patient with him.

"So what got you all pissy today? The midterms or the fact that Ling broke up with you?" Fourth had asked during their meals.

"A little bit of everything, I guess. I am just so stressed out that I am frustrated and shit." Gemini had replied.

"You should get laid. It helps with stress relief." Fourth had said, and when Gemini gave him an unimpressed look, he laughed.

"I am serious. It's scientific. Sex can help you to relax and take your mind off everyday worries and anxieties. During sex your body releases endorphins and oxytocin, and these feel-good hormones create feelings of relaxation and intimacy, as well as helping to stave off anxiety and stress. Look it up if you don't believe me." Fourth had said after his laughter, tears of mirth in his eyes.

"Did you forget the part where my girlfriend broke up with me?" Gemini had said with a roll of his eyes.

"So? You are an attractive guy. You don't need to be in a relationship to get laid. Just one smile at a girl, and you guaranteed to get laid." Fourth had replied.

"I don't do casual hookups Fourth. Besides, I don't want to get intimate with someone whom I have no emotional connection with." Gemini had said.

"So bang one of your friends." Fourth said with a shrug.
