My Big Man Baby

Filler Chapter

Ohm's POV

We went back to the room after a quick dinner. Gawin was about to leave when he got a message from his manager. An odd look crossed his face, but he sighed softly to himself.

He looked up at me, putting on a smile that did not quite reach his eyes. "I have no plans for tomorrow now. Why don't I stay and accompany you too?"

"You already had a long day of filming P. You should go home and rest even if you have no plans. But I thought you had a commercial tomorrow? I recall seeing the schedule on the calendar."

Gawin just smiled as he muttered that the client decided to change and go with someone else. I saw the dull ache in his eyes and knew that it must sting badly.

"P..."

"Don't worry, Ohm. I am used to this. I can understand that clients always want a more popular artist. It's ok."

"Who did they replace you with?"

Gawin looked at me for a long bit before muttering Nanon. I sighed, and my heart just went out to Gawin, but he just quietly kept the bag away, checked on Thanat, and came to sit on the couch next to me.

"Don't worry, with both of us here, we can take turns. Why don't you rest first, and then we can swap?"

I shook my head, not feeling particularly sleepy, but I just leaned my head on his shoulders. I was starting to appreciate Gawin's hold, and it comforted me greatly. But this time, I just gripped his shirt tightly as I lay on his chest.

Gawin's arms held onto me tightly. Guess for tonight. Both of us needed as much comforting as the other. I just looked at Thanat from where I was seated as he slept. Finally, I heard regular breathing and looked up to see Gawin's eyes closed. He looked like he was sleeping, too.

"Why aren't you resting?" He suddenly muttered. I nearly jumped when I heard him as i thought he was sleeping! For the first time since we started hanging out, Gawin let out a tiny chuckle as he opened his eyes to look at me.

I pulled away from his grip, sitting up, smacking him for scaring me. He just laughed as sleep left us, and we started chatting. Over the next few hours till dawn, we just swapped stories about work and our personal lives.

Gawin's POV

We took turns to go wash up around 6 am. before Thanat woke up. Ohm's parents joined us around 9am, and we had another meeting with the doctors where the options of physiotherapy and medication were brought up as a treatment plan.

They decided to go for it, but the doctor said Thanat could be discharged on Friday first after some more tests and monitoring. That was the first good piece of news, and we all cheered! Thanat's friends came by again during lunch, so we left them to be while Ohm's parents wanted to bring us out for lunch. I told them it was not necessary, but his mom was not having it.

We went back to Ohm's family home where Ohm and I took showers, and he loaned me some of his clothes. I came out post shower to a warm meal that his mother had conjured up.

She asked me to sit down and eat first as her husband had some work issues to deal with. I asked her where Ohm was, and she said he was in Thanat's room. I told her I would get him and we could eat together. She nodded and went to finish off some chores while I made my way to Thanat's room.

I found Ohm standing there, looking at a photo of them. I cleared my throat, and he turned to look at me, eyes oddly bright.

"You ok?"

He nodded, saying he was good.

"Shall we go eat?"

He was about to shake his head no when he saw me frowning and laughed. Ohm quickly came up to me and said he would eat. We were about to leave the room when Ohm realized my hair was still wet from the shower.

He grumbled as he pulled me to sit on the floor, and he sat on Thanat's bed to dry my hair for me. He was whining away on how careless I was and that I could fall sick and etc. I laughed and tuned him out as I watched his reflection in the mirror opposite of us as he dried my hair.

"Cute..."

"What, P?"

"Oh, nothing Ohm. Thanks for drying my hair."

Ohm smiled as he wrapped it up and went to keep the towel away while I told him I go down first. He agreed as I walked off. Lucky he didn't hear me calling him cute.

Ohm's POV

Despite my inner misgivings, it tickled my heart seeing Gawin call me cute. I could feel the slightest blush caressing my cheeks as I kept the towel away. Luckily, he had long gone off.
