Duress (Thawin/Liftoil) - The dark side of you

Author's note: Part 18/??

Thawin parked in front of his house and let Liftoil out. 

"Go inside and I will be there in a moment." The tone of the older male wasn't one to argue with so Liftoil nodded and hurried inside the house. He quickly ran to his room, tossed the backpack on the bed and changed into comfortable clothes. He heard the entrance door open and close and soon Thawin's muffled cold voice resounded through the air. 

"Stay away from him." 

"I am warning you. Don't play with what's mine." The last sentence made Liftoil shiver. He sunk to his bed, thinking. This side of his neighbour scared him. He didn't know what was happening and even if he badly wanted to know, Liftoil knew he couldn't ask about it. Thawin wouldn't confess even under duress let alone if he asked openly. Liftoil bit his lower lip. The door to his room opened, revealing Thawin in all his handsome glory. The stern expression on his face partly disappeared, but Liftoil could still feel the dark aura. 

"Are you ready, my Oil?" Thawin approached him. Liftoil looked at him and shook his head. He didn't feel well enough to study. The older male must have realized his distress too as he gently caressed his cheek. 

"Okay. We don't have to study today. Lie down and rest. I will be there to accompany you." The words worked on Liftoil like a spell. He lay down, and let the older male cover him with a blanket. Thawin slid beside him and pulled him to his side. Liftoil rested his head on his chest and let Thawin's heartbeat lull him into a deep sleep.
