BEHIND THE SPOTLIGHT

Chapter 7

Fourth had decided to spend the whole day with Gemini but he was freaking out because he hadn't figured out his feelings yet and to make it worse he already confessed that he liked the latter too.

While they were eating, Fourth decided to let out some of his thoughts just so he wouldn't be too stressed

"Phi Gem "

"Fotfot?"

Fourth swallowed hard when Gemini called him.

"Can we..can we not tell the others just yet?" Fourth asked

"Hmm? About ?"

"Us? " Fourth replied looking just as tensed

"I wouldn't tell because we are not dating yet or are we dating?" Gemini asked nervously

"I don't know, are we?" Fourth asked raising an eyebrow

Gemini didn't have an answer at this point he just smiled at his nong awkwardly.
To him having Fourth around was enough as long as Fourth knew he had feelings for him.

"Phi Gem..." Fourth rested his head on Gemini's shoulder as they sat to watch a movie

"Hmm you okay?" Gemini asked stroking the latter's hair

"No I'm not " Fourth replied

Gemini cupped his cheeks "What's wrong? Do you not like the movie, i can change it " Gemini asked softly

"I feel...I feel nauseous" Fourth said but he was almost late, about to puke on Gemini.

Gemini hurriedly carried him to the bathroom soothing his back as he puked.
Moments later, Gemini was done cleaning him up and offered him clothes to put on.

"We need to go to the hospital Fot, this isn't like you" Gemini said wrapping his arms around Fourth's waist.

"No need, I'll be fine really " Fourth replied, his voice tired.

"I don't think so, I'm taking you to the hospital and that's final!" Gemini almost raised his voice giving Fourth goosebumps.

He took his car keys, shoved Fourth to the and drove off.

"Atleast inform P'Earn about this " Fourth said shivering

Gemini's eyes were on the road "I will once we get there"

At the hospital, there were some of their fans and Fourth refused to get out of the car.
"Phi please let's go back" he pleaded

"But you're sick Fotfot, be fair to your health " Gemini replied softly

"No! " Fourth protested

Gemini then called P'Earn and informed her about Fourth's condition.
After some time, P'Earn arrived at their parking spot and took Fourth with him.

"Can I come with?" Gemini asked

"Just go back home Gem, fans are out there with their phones ready to record " P'Earn said

"But I'm not doing anything....just want to know how Fourth is" Gemini whined

"Fine let's go " P'Earn said placing Fourth on a wheelchair as they headed in.

Both of them wearing nose masks wasn't enough to hide from the fans because they knew them.
"Khun Gemini, what happened to Fourth?" One of the fans asked as they pass by.

Gemini folded his hands greeting them as he passed in a hurry not answering any questions.

Moments later, Fourth was examined and the results were out. He had no kind of sickness yet he looked pale and vomiting whenever he got the chance.
The doctor prescribed some medication for him and advised extreme bed rest.

P'Earn had left halfway and Gemini drove Fourth back to his condo. He was already asleep when they got there so Gemini carried him in a bridal style to house.

"Put me down Phi Gem" Fourth whispered his eyes still shut.

Gemini thought he was asleep, he startled when he heard Fourth's voice and dropped him on the floor.

"Hoey!! Jeb!" Fourth shouted

"Sorry, sorry " Gemini apologized repeatedly, lifting him up again to the bedroom

"My butt hurts phi! Why would you carry me if I'm that heavy huh" Fourth scolded the older

"Sorry Fotfot I didn't mean to drop you i promise..please sorry?" Gemini pleaded

"Can you please check?" Fourth discarded his pants while laying on the bed his butt facing up

"HUH!!" Gemini panicked when he saw Fourth's red butt, he quickly turned the other way. "Fotfot wear your pants naa? What are you doing.." Gemini said, his own cheeks red burning not to talk about his heart racing, he clenched his fists trying to compose himself.

"But it hurts...I-"

"I'll go get you uhmm..some ice stay here " Gemini said stumbling towards the kitchen.

He took a half an hour just to get Fourth some ice. When he got to him Fourth was still half-butt naked.
His butt cheeks were abit swollen, reddish and a handful that Gemini was tempted to grab.

He slowly led his hand to Fourth's butt about to grab them but stopped "Get a grip Gem...stop it, he isn't yours " Gemini heard voices in his head convincing him to let the younger be.

Just as he was about to cover him, Fourth turned and pulled him into a hug "Phi..I feel...I feel sick " Fourth stammered, his whole body shaking.

Gemini hugged him back, soothing him "It's okay nong, you'll be fine..the medicines will work okay?"

Fourth slightly pushed him and put back his pants on. " I want to go home "

"It's late Fotfot " Gemini said

"Still, I want to go home " Fourth insisted and Gemini didn't have a choice but to drive him home.

Before they could leave, he held his wrist, "Fot did i do something?"

"No"

"Then why do you want to leave? You always run away from every single thing Fot! You're sick but want to go home at midnight? Like hey, can't you see me? I'm here for you Fot but you can't keep hurting my feelings like this " Gemini said

"I'll drive myself then!" Fourth became stubborn

" I don't understand you Fot, I don't understand our relationship, sometimes we are friends, sometimes we are more than friends and sometimes I'm just a stranger to you. One minute you're talking to me as if I'm something special and the next minute you're talking to me as if i mean absolutely nothing to you " Gemini's tears welled up his eyes

"Phi Gem I-"

"One day you pay so much attention to me and the next day you completely ignore me. Don't play with my feelings just because you're unsure about yours, it's not fair!"

"Phi Gem what are you saying..you know i-"

"I think we need a break from each other, I'm sorry for loving you " Gemini got out of the car "oh, here are the car keys you can leave if you want to, drive my car to work tomorrow I'll get it"
