7. One Step Forward, Two Steps Back.

The moment the plane landed in the Milan airport, Gemini turned around to face the front.

He had been staring at Fourth the entire flight and his neck was aching now. He couldn't help it—Fourth looked so adorable with his mouth slightly open, neck pillow making his cheeks bunch up and his hands that kept falling off from his lap. P'Tong was next to him, fast asleep too and Gemini took that opportunity to openly stare at his crush.

However, as he walked ahead of Fourth among the fans, he knew that Fourth was still not completely awake. He kept blinking in the sunlight, waving at his fans a bit forced. Gemini just wanted to drag Fourth to their shared room to let the younger sleep but he couldn't. He spared a few glances in Fourth's direction and noted with sadness that Fourth didn't look at him even once. It hurt him more than he expected it to.

The van ride to the hotel was even more annoying. Gemini sat in front of the van, allowing ample space for Fourth to sit next to, but he just passed Gemini to sit at the back, before leaning against the glass and falling asleep immediately. Gemini turned around to look at him, but he was too busy. He just waved at their fans who were being held back by security until the doors slid shut. Gemini closed his eyes and decided to get some much necessary sleep.

When the van came to their hotel, he was feeling recharged and he talked with the rest of the crew. He noticed how Fourth was literally getting dragged around by P'Earn and it made him giggle. Fourth acted like a baby with P'Earn and P'Tong and it was endearing to watch.

Once they were finally in their room, he followed Fourth in, mood dimming the moment he saw that they weren't going to share beds during this trip. He had managed to coerce P'Earn to get them one room, but that was the limit apparently. He sighed but the fact that they were going to share close quarters for half a week got his spirits up.

"Finally" he breathed, as he brushed past Fourth—the touch sending his mind into overdrive, "So, which bed do you want?"

Their hands were so close to each other and Gemini wanted to interlock their fingers together. The warmth reverberating from Fourth wasn't enough. He wanted to feel that warmth physically. But during the entire time he had been contemplating what Fourth's hand would feel like, Fourth had been staring at him. He didn't want to read into Fourth's long stare but he did feel a little conscious about himself. Fourth looked impossibly beautiful, even though he looked worse for wear. Fourth had this kind of beauty that made even his bare face extremely kissable. As Fourth turned away from him to look at the beds, Gemini caught himself staring at Fourth's moles peppered on his face.

Oh, how much he wanted to kiss those moles.

Fourth just brushed past him and fell onto one bed and Gemini decided that it's the bed he wanted. The loss of that warmth made Gemini shudder as he looked over at Fourth and couldn't help but walk in between the beds to smack his butt. It was their signature bonding activity. He just needed to touch Fourth in any way possible and this was his best opportunity. Gemini sat in the other bed and plopped his bag and sunglasses on the nightstand before turning to stare at Fourth.

Fourth looked happy—his lips were curled up slightly although his eyes were closed. The black jacket was dragged hap hazardously down his body, as his polo shirt popped up from under. No matter what, Fourth was absolutely breath-takingly beautiful. It felt like a sin, staring at him under the soft glow of light. His eyelashes kissed his pink cheeks, as his lips started to pout a little. He was breathing slowly and Gemini wondered if he had already fallen asleep.

He wondered how it would feel like to hold Fourth's entire attention. He wanted to look away, because in what world would Fourth want him, right?

"What now?" Fourth asked, shifting onto his side to look at Gemini, who jumped at the sudden attention.
