I went back and sat down. P Aim came to sit next to me.

"Hey, where did you go off to?"

"Oh I just went to the bathroom P. Anything the matter?"

"Ah not really. I just wanted to ask you something while we are the only ones here."

That's when I studied the table and realized the rest were missing.

"Where's everyone, P?'

Aim told me that Park and Kong went to smoke. Max and Tul were on the dance floor and Arthit was still in the toilet. I just nodded, knowing fully well that I had left Arthit outside.

"What was it you wanted to ask me, P?"

"So, erm, well, do not get me wrong. I just wanted.. so what I was thinking was.. that if it's ok? And only if it's ok, that.. I, you.. I mean.."

Aim kept sputtering. I looked at him confused, starting to lose my patience.

"P! What is it?!" I barked. Aim got stunned but then finally sputtered out, "Can I send you home later?!"

I looked at P Aim shocked. He wanted to send me home? What? I was about to just reply him no but I saw his ears were tinged red and he was biting his lips. I looked at him and knew it was something he really wanted to do for me but was feeling vulnerable about having to put himself out there for me.

But there was no need to send me home, was it? However, I decided to bite the bullet and agreed.

"Sure, P. I will be happy for a ride home. Thank you."

Aim broke out into the sweetest smile I seen in a while and I just involuntarily found myself smiling back too. Just then, Arthit came back. He caught us grinning at each other and just stopped there for a bit.

"Am I interrupting something?" He asked softly. Aim looked up at him and said no and said he will be back after buying more beers. He went off and Arthit looked at me. He just slipped back into the seat next to mine.

"Aim looks unusually happy. And the first I am seeing you smile in a bit."

"He wanted to send me home. I agreed. Didn't realize it would make him that happy."

Arthit turned to me when I said that.

"Oh. Aim offered to send you home? That's...nice.. "

Arthit didn't say anything else after that but he also didn't talk to me for the night. I didn't say anything as I knew he was still debating about whether he wanted to be friends with me.

Around 2am, we all left. Aim sent me home and once at my dorm, I thanked him for the ride.

"Do text me when you are home, P. Thanks for the ride."

"No problem Lam. Any plans tomorrow?"

"Not really. Why?"

"My sister gave me a pair of movie tickets for the latest Deadpool flick. Do you want to go with me?"

"Hm, you don't want to bring your sister or anyone else?"

"Na. She's not a fan that's why I got the tickets. But I was thinking we could go for it?"

I kept quiet. It was a good movie and I didn't mind catching it. I looked at P Aim and nodded my head.

"Thanks for that P. Sure, why not? But let me get lunch then."

"Done deal. It's a date then, see you tomorrow!"

Aim rode off before I could reply him.

A date? Why did I feel like P Aim just did that in the most sneakiest manner?

I wasn't dating anyone. And I was not straight. P Aim is a good guy. Too nice for me but if he wanted to date me, why not? I should give it a chance.

But why did P Arthit come to mind then?
Ugh.
