I wanted to be Normal! ✔

Chapter 32: from January to January

Boun told him everything he had talked about with his mother, the atmosphere between mother and son was a little lighter but not entirely comfortable, that would come with time, but Boun was happy and Prem was happy to see the other so cheerful, the brunette noticed the feeling of being happy because someone else is and that was incredible and frightening at the same time.

Boun grabbed Prem's arm and made him get up from the bed he was sitting on. Prem didn't understand, but then Boun gave him the idea of going for a walk around the neighborhood, even though it was night and it looked deserted.

"And where do you want to take me?" Prem asked as he was dragged up the stairs.

"I don't know, I want to take you outside" He had a playful tone in his voice "Auntie!!! I'm going for a walk with Prem outside, tell Mom!" he said as he ran with Prem to the door, they got out and ran through the small yard to the gate.

"Where are you taking me, you madman?" Prem asked with a silly grin on his face.

"I don't know hahaha. Just follow me."

"Where to? You don't know where you're going, walking around aimlessly, that's not normal" Boun stopped his walk, making the brunette stop too. Boun turned and looked into Prem's dark eyes, he walked until he was centimeters away from the brunette, a mischievous smile on his face.

"You still think being normal is cool because I think it's the most boring thing in the world. Being normal is being the same and I don't want to be the same, I want to do meaningless things like walking aimlessly nowhere. Sometimes walking nowhere is itself going somewhere, so assume you're not normal and smile at being different. Can you catch up with me?" He turned and ran off down the deserted street.

"Boun!!!" Prem ran after the blond "I can't believe I'm running like an idiot after another idiot!!!! I'm really not normal!!!" they both smiled as they ran. Feeling the cold wind hit his body and face while he was hot with euphoria was one of the most wonderful sensations.

The freedom of running nowhere but at the same time going to the right place. Being normal is nothing. The two of them ran and laughed, Prem caught up with Boun and jumped on his back, hugging him tightly.

Boun held the brunette's legs so he could balance himself and not fall, and he ran some more. Prem was feeling so good, I think that was happiness, it's the little things or the meaningless things like running aimlessly.

He got off the older man's back and held both of Boun's hands. He looked at them together with his own, he felt a lump in his throat, he wanted to cry and it wasn't a cry of sadness or anxiety, it was a cry of happiness. The brunette had never cried because he was happy, it was so strange, Prem's body was in a state of conflict, but he wanted to continue feeling all of this, even if he felt sick.

"Hey!!! Why are you crying?" Boun put one of his clasped hands on Prem's face to dry his tears.

"I... I'm happy" Prem looked at Boun with tearful eyes but he smiled "thank you for being with me, even if we're not dating, I feel very grateful to have you"

"Who says we're not?" Boun held Prem's face with both hands and squeezed, making his chubby cheeks tighten and look cute.

"Are we?" he asked with a little difficulty because it was so tight.

"Of course you are."

"Why don't you propose? Just so I know I'm in a relationship."

"I forgot to tell you," he smiled. Prem pushed Boun's hands away from his face and stared at the blond with his arms crossed.

"I want a request."

"Why? That's too cliché."

"Fuck it, the readers of this story expect a proposal, just like me."

"Okay" Boun held Prem's hands and looked into the brunette's eyes "will you stay with me from January to January?"

"Wow!!! I like that request. Yes, I agree to stay with you from January to January" Boun pulled Prem closer and wrapped him in a hug.

"I'm amazing" Prem squeezed him tighter

"I still can't believe you're all mine, I don't even deserve it."

"Yes, you do, you deserve better" Boun grabbed the brunette's chin and pulled him into a calm, loving kiss.

"Shut up, you're the best," Prem said between kisses.

The two of them stood there hugging in that deserted street, the feelings were positive and they were both loving it, they were no longer alone.
