Joong's Birthday ~ Part 2 Special Chapter

After Dobyson’s surprise for Jace’s birthday, fans are looking forward to see the gifts he gave to Jace, hoping to see them wearing the shoes together. Many expected to see them matching shoes at their Grab Food event, but to their disappointment, the two didn’t wear them that day. However, Jace and Dobyson more than made up for it by showering their fans with love. They displayed endless sweet interactions and affectionate gestures, making it hard for anyone to believe they weren’t a real couple. Jace, still overwhelmed by Dobyson’s thoughtful surprise, couldn’t help but act extra cute around his boyfriend. Since it was his birth month, he felt he deserved to be pampered and spoiled by his Faen for the entire month.

"Hmm, there won’t be any couple events until my birthday celebration with my fans. Aren’t you going to miss me during that time?"

Before Doby left for the airport to attend his Armani event in Vietnam, he had a video call with Jace. After their couple event with Grab Food, Doby had to wake up early to get ready for his morning flight. Even though he didn’t get much sleep because he and Jace stayed on the phone talking after their event, he still made time to check in with his Faen before boarding his flight. 

Doby has a habit of wearing a couple items whenever he travels abroad alone, as a way to feel connected to Jace even when they are apart. This time, he didn’t just wear one matching item he wore their matching necklaces, and a couple rings, and the glasses that Jace had given him as a birthday present.

"Of course, I’m going to miss you! But I think I know exactly who’s going to struggle the most from not seeing me for almost two weeks."

"Oh, don’t tease me like that! If you do, I won’t be able to handle being away from you."

Doby knew that if he didn’t call his boyfriend before leaving for Vietnam, he would have to deal with nonstop complaints later. Ever since they got back together and had a heartfelt conversation, thanks to their boss arranging a private meeting for them, Jace had become even more clingy, especially in public. Sometimes, Jace would drop hints to their fans, making it obvious that they were more than just friends. However, since they hadn’t officially confirmed their relationship, fans could only assume and speculate, believing it was all part of their own imagination.

"Hmm... I love you, my brother."

Doby playfully teased Jace just like they used to, treating it as a "BRO thing" to cover up the true nature of their relationship. It was their way of keeping things light and casual in front of others. However, if anyone listened closely to the way they said the word "bro," it almost sounded like a secret term of endearment, an indirect way of expressing their closeness without actually admitting anything.

"I love you too, bro."

After their morning conversation, Doby ended the call and got ready to board his flight. Just as he had expected, Jace couldn’t stop talking about him on social media. He kept mentioning his "Faen" and even playfully teased his fans, making them even more excited. 

Meanwhile, Doby was completely surprised by the overwhelming support at his event. He hadn’t expected such a huge crowd, and seeing so many fans gathered just for him felt like a dream come true. It was a magical experience, making him feel deeply grateful for their love and support. 

After the event, Doby had to attend an after-party, and in the excitement of everything, he missed calling his Faen before heading there. He enjoyed the celebration so much that he ended up staying out late and only got a little sleep before his return to Thailand. 

By the time he got back, both of them had become too busy to catch up properly. Jace had started working on a new project with his group, Jasp.ER, while Doby finally had a chance to rest. However, their schedules never seemed to match, leaving them with no time to spend together. Even their fans started to notice, expressing their disappointment over the lack of couple content and events especially since their last project together had been the Grab Food event.
