Adversity

"Join me, Phee.."

PraPai was frozen in his place, his mouth was open wide but no word came out. He blinked rapidly at Sky while Sky lazily looked at him and repeated, "Come here, please?"

Sky sounded so seductive that PraPai felt like he was dreaming, Sky leaned on the tub and looked at PraPai and then frowned, "Or you don't want to?"

"Want! I want to!" PraPai shouted in panic, afraid that Sky might change his mind.

He quickly removed all his clothes and then hesitated as he grabbed the elastic of his underwear. He looks towards Sky feeling lost and finds Sky watching with droopy eyes.

Sky noticed PraPai's hesitation and gestures, "Off... now.."

PraPai didn't have to be told twice and tug the underwear down, he stood proudly naked in front of Sky while Sky just stared at him in daze before looking away.

PraPai climbed into the bathtub and sat opposite to Sky but then Sky moved closer to PraPai. The Beta turned around and rested his head over PraPai's shoulder.

He noticed how stiff PraPai's body was and shook his head before he spoke, "I'm not made of glass, you don't have to be cautious.."

"I'm trying not to do anything that might lead me into trouble, can't be indecent.." PraPai answered weakly.

Sky turned to look towards PraPai with blank face and spoke, "Indecent? We are already naked in the tub, anything further would be just cherry on top.."

PraPai dared to answer while Sky huffs before resting his head over PraPai's shoulder again and whispering sweetly, "Hold me, P'Phai.."

PraPai's eyes darken as he took a glance at Sky's body and then looked straight instead. Sky sighs before grabbing PraPai's hand and putting it in your waist.

"You can hold me, I thought we already passed the stage of awkwardness..." Sky spoke in disappointment which made PraPai panic

"I'm not awkward! Not at all! I just don't want Sky to think I'm taking advantage of our statue plus P'Mil.." PraPai told Sky who rolled his eyes.

"Please don't bring my family in, we are literally naked and it gives me goosebumps to think about them. Also I don't feel you're taking advantage of me, I know you have endured a lot for me and it made me realise how amazing a person you are..." Sky said softly as he looked up at Sky.

Both stare at each other quietly before PraPai leans down to capture Sky's lip. The kiss was soft and tender which made both feel warm and closer.

When PraPai pulled away, he couldn't stop smiling and wanted to kiss Sky again but controlled himself when saw Sky looking tired and sleepy.

He kissed Sky's forehead instead and hugged Sky gently, "Let's wash up and go to bed, we can have late night dinner..."

"10 minutes, let me take a nap..." Sky whispered as he snuggled closer to PraPai, The alpha gently massaged Sky's waist which Sky sighs in relief.

                        4 days later, Charlie washes his face while staring his reflection into the mirror. He turned around to look at Babe, who was sleeping peacefully and sighs.

Charlie took a quick bath and then walked over to Babe. The enigma already washed Babe and the room so that Babe wouldn't get irritated with the stench.

He kneels down in front of Babe and strokes his hair while looking at the alpha longingly. He sighs again as he pulls away and looks at Babe for a little longer before he gets up.
