Lie detector

Lie detector

"Pi, please pick me up!" Satang hears Fourth whisper, "Please, I want to leave here straight away when it's over!" pleads a broken heart on the phone.

Millions of fans were allowed to watch Gemini speak his truth. Millions of fans got to watch Fourth's lie get exposed.

So it's true.

Gemini doesn't love Fourth.

But the fact that Fourth does love him was immediately revealed by the stupid lie detector with an electric shock.

The break in filming gave him the opportunity to quickly call Satang. Fourth simply can't keep his beaming smile any longer. He would never have thought that Gemini's truth could hurt so much. After all, Gem has said often enough on camera that he only sees Fourth as a friend. But today, the lack of an electric shock hit Fourth particularly hard. Gemini said he doesn't love Fourth and the lie detector confirms his statement. So many times Fourth has been pushed back by Gemini. But the hope of his swarm's hidden feelings kept him strong.

So today a lie detector is supposed to show him the truth.

Fourth is so spiritual and superstitious.

And Satang hears the silent whimpering on the phone.

"Fourth, calm down! What's happened?" he wants to be there for his Nong.

There is a painful gulp.

"I don't have time to tell you everything now. The recordings are about to continue. You'll understand me when the programme airs," Fourth explains hastily, "please pick me up! I don't want to be alone with Gem. I don't want him to drive me home!" he shakes his head, "He's in a really good mood and would realise straight away that I'm down!" Satang hears Fourth's voice tremble.

"Fourth, you can't run away from him," he starts and is immediately interrupted, "I know! I know!" sighs Fourth, "I'm not running away! Everything is going so well right now. I don't want to break anything. I don't want Gem to notice!" Satang hears his resolve, "I just need my Pi to lean on! Can you manage that? Please!" there's a sudden knock at the cloakroom. "Fotfot, are you coming?", Gemini's voice rings out from behind the door, "I'm coming!", Fourth calls back confidently, "I'm coming to pick you up!", Satang assures him, "But believe me, you'd better be honest. Gem can't learn to understand you if you're putting on a front!" his Pi advises before hanging up.

The show must go on!

And so Fourth charms his Gemini with an enchanting smile.

Gem can't take his eyes off him during the recording.

He giggles, cackles and almost falls off his chair when Fourth is so cute and funny.

And, when Fourth gets nervous and fears the next electric shock, Gem wants to hug him.

That face just never gets boring.

Gem is completely taken in by his best friend's aura.

They are just perfect together.

Wordlessly, Gemini builds their future together.

Fourth is such an extraordinary person. His perfect appearance is beautiful, sugary sweet and flaming hot all at the same time.

They will always make it higher.

And Gemini can savour the exciting presence of his partner forever.

He breathes in his scent and feels the woolly warm tingling sensation travelling over his body.

When he listens to Fourth, stares at him, feeds on his presence.
