You & Me [Completed]

Forth

I don't know why Aim did what he did, but I was feeling pissed when I saw that he consciously put distance between us.

So, being the petty fool I was, I didn't speak to him during lunch nor the hours preceding that despite his array of casual texts.

I got home after classes around 7 pm, and he called me. I initially did not want to answer but finally decided to.

"Yes, P?"

"Where are you, Forth?"

"I just got home, P. Why?"

"Do you want to have dinner together? I owe you for the Uber anyway."

"It's $20 baht P. You can just transfer me if it's easier."

"I thought you wanted dinner and a beer?"

"That's because I thought you would be happy to spend time with me. But seeing how you behaved at lunch today, I guess I shouldn't force my hand so much."

"Forth.. it's.. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to.. I just.. I.. I.. "

I was silent on the phone. "You can just transfer to my phone number, ok?"

I hung up thereafter, just feeling a little put out. I went to get a shower and changed out into a comfortable pair of trackpants and tank top. I was scrolling through my phone while on the couch looking at food options to door dash when I heard a knock on the door.

I opened the door only to find P Aim standing there with a food package in his hand.

"Can I come in?"

I nodded, making way for him to come in.

"I got your 20 baht here. I got 2 bowls of noodles and 2 beers for us. Plus some gyozas."

I just stood at my entrance, watching as he continued to stand at my dining table, taking the food out. He had laid out all food on the table and hesitated now, unsure of what to do. He just looked over his shoulder at me. I walked towards him, I stood behind him. Aim was quiet. Then he started speaking, voice soft as always.

"Im sorry about earlier. I just didn't want to think too much about whatever you have been doing for me because I realized my heart was wavering. And it was embarrassing. First Lam, now you. It made me look so flighty, jumping from guy to guy and you being kind to me wasn't helping so I... did.."

But Aim couldn't complete his sentence as I wrapped my arms around him. I wrapped my arms securely around his waist and pulled him closer to me. Aim gasped a bit.

"I already told you I am not kind to everyone. Only you. And I don't think you are flighty. You are entitled to your feelings P. You deserve someone who only wants you. And I.. I have only been looking at you."

That took a lot out of me to be that honest with him. I didn't even know how he would react. But realising how petty I had been with him over today at lunch made me realize that perhaps my feelings for him was more than just of a Nong and Phi. Plus hearing him today made me realize that he has been as conflicted as I am.

Aim just touched my hands in response and I turned him over to see me. Aim looked at me for a long bit when I leaned in even closer, subconsciously.

"May I, Phi?"

Aim just nodded and I leaned in, closing the gap between us. My lips had just touched his when the fucking door bell rang again. Ah fuck this shit!

I pulled away, groaning and Aim just chuckled softly. I let go of him and went to open the door while Aim tagged along.

We were surprised to see Park standing there, his eyes a little red. He saw P Aim and got confused and even glared at him but got interrupted by me.

"Park, are you ok? Why are you here? Thought you had plans with P Kong?"

"We don't, anymore. He's out with someone."

"Who?" Aim called out quickly.

"Some girl. I don't know. He said I shouldn't be bothered by it since he can go on a date if I can go on a date."

"What? That idiot!" I looked at P Aim, clearly amused by his reactions but asking him to keep it on the low lest Park got even more annoyed. But I think Park was in one of those moods.

"Right, P? I don't understand him at all. He doesn't tell me if he liked him. Got angry when I went on a date. I finally confessed to him on how I feel and he doesn't believe me, saying I'm taking pity on him and then goes on a date to spite me!" Park growled as he came in, completely ignoring me.

I groaned as I watched Aim and Park go and sit on the couch, with Aim just trying to hear him out and getting angry on Park's behalf at Kong and then both were bitching about Kong. I rolled my eyes as I sat down, joining them as I ate my noodles.

Midway Aim turned to look at me.

"Aish, you really need to watch how you eat." He grumbled softly as he wiped my mouth off. I just blushed softly, a faint red hue dusting my cheeks as Aim wiped my lips gently.

There was silence for a bit before Park growled.

"Why am I always caught in the middle of a couple?! Fuck this. And when did you two even get together?!"

Aim laughed but I just growled back.

"Well I was planning but you interrupted! Go home now. Go make peace with P Kong instead. You have hijacked P Aim enough for the last 30 minutes. Anything else, can be for tomorrow. Go home now Park!"

Park growled at me but just rolled his eyes and left, thanking Aim on the way for listening to me.

But before he left, Park turned to look at me.

"You sure make one possessive boyfriend. Like P Kong in some ways."

I nearly lunged at him but Park laughed and left while Aim held me back!

"Easy there, tiger. He's just messing with you."

Aim held onto my arm firmly and pulled me to look at him. This time, I was being the shy one for a change, having people call me out on my feelings.

Aim just placed one finger under my chin and lifted it up.

"So, I think I got what I deserve right? Someone who just wants me, looks at me only and only has me in his reflection."

"But not sure if I am tall and fierce enough for you.. " I muttered, grousing softly.

Aim laughed as he pulled me in closer.

"We will find it out." He muttered as he finally leaned in, kissing me.
