The Matchmakers Choice

Flowers and thorns

Before the tension between them could increase further, the bodyguard arrived with clothes for Rain. "Sir, these are the clothes you asked for," the bodyguard said. Phayu looked at Rueng one last time. "Give them to me," he took the clothes from the bodyguard. Before Rueng could say anything, Phayu closed the door on his face. Rueng stared at the closed door, a little angry with phayu's behavior but more restless knowing Rain was inside with someone else.

Phayu finally returned to Rain with the clothes. "Why did you take so long?" Rain asked when he saw Phayu. "Nothing, I was just discussing something. You don't need to worry," Phayu replied, not mentioning Rueng. "Here, change your clothes," he passed the clothes to Rain.

Rain looked at the clothes—a white shirt with ruffles and matching pants. His eyes sparkled . "These are looking really good and comfortable," he said, touching the shirt. Phayu found Rain's reaction really cute. Looking at rain, getting happy, just by seeing clothes makes Phayu realise, It was very easy to make Rain happy; just little things can made him bloom like a beautiful flower. A small smile appeared on Phayu's face unknowingly.

Rain went to change and returned wearing the new clothes. When Phayu saw Rain in the white ruffled shirt, he couldn't take his eyes off him. Rain looked stunning, the shirt complementing his body perfectly. Phayu hadn't paid much attention to Rain's body before, but now when he is noticing, Rain's has a natural beauty, his lean waist, and his soft, milky skin, pouty lips, natural tint on his cheeks, beautiful doe eyes, his small hands that are too soft to hold, rain was perfect.

"What happened now? Why are you staring at me?" Rain asked, snapping Phayu out of his thoughts. "Ah, nothing. Are you ready? Should we go back now? It's pretty late," he said, checking his watch.

"Oh yes, it's very late. Tomorrow I have to go to university as well," Rain picked up his ruined clothes, putting them in a packet. "Come, let's go," he said, taking small steps toward Phayu.

"Are you still in pain?" Phayu asked when he noticed Rain's cautious steps. Rain looked down at his leg. "No, it's just that I had to stand for a long time. Maybe that's why it's hurting a little, but that's okay. I will be fine," Rain smiled.

Phayu thought for a moment and then picked Rain up in his arms. "Oh, what are you doing?" Rain exclaimed, startled by Phayu's sudden action. "Nothing I just don't want you to get injured again. And because of that, I would have to waste my time taking care of you. That's why I'm taking precautions," Phayu said without looking at Rain, walking out of the room.

Hearing this, Rain got angry. "Really? You think like that? Then put me down, put me down you idiot, And even if I got injured, you don't have to worry. Put me down, Phayu!" Rain hit Phayu with his small fists, trying to get down.

"Shh, don't move. Be a good boy," Phayu  pulled Rain more securely into his arms.

Rain body froze for a second as his face almost hiding in the crook of Phayu's neck. He could feel his lips occasionally touching Phayu's neck as he moved. Rain stopped struggling and put his arms around Phayu's neck. For some reason, he felt so good and relaxed, a feeling he had never felt before with anyone. A faint smile appeared on his lips as he hid his face more in Phayu's neck, inhaling the cologne mixed with Phayu's natural scent.

When Phayu felt Rain stop struggling, he smiled and held Rain more possessively. While exiting the hotel, he saw Rueng looking in their direction, but Rain didn't notice. Phayu smirked a little looking at rueng and finally exited the hotel. The bodyguard opened the car door for Phayu, who put Rain inside and got in himself.

When they were on their way back home, the air inside the car around them was thick with tension. Rain's heart was pounding inside his chest as Phayu was sitting unusually close to him. Usually, Phayu sat at the other corner, but right now, he was almost sticking to Rain, their knees brushing against each other, making Rain shiver. Rain took a deep breath to calm his racing heart when his phone started ringing, attracting Phayu's attention. Rain looked at the screen flashing Winnie's name. When Phayu saw Winnie's name on the screen, his expression immediately changed. He looked at Rain with furrowed brows.
