"Please, Kongpob? Please? Please?" Maprang pleaded as she clutched at her classmate's arm, putting on her best pitiful expression. "No one else in the elective class is comfortable enough to "act" gay. No offense really. But this short advertisement is for a good cause to highlight the issues same-sex couples encounter." She explained earnestly.

Kongpob threw Aim and Oak a pleading look.

"It's not that I don't want to help, Kong. But being in front of a camera?" Aim shivered. "Not my thing."

As part of the requirements of the university, each student were required to take up one elective each semester that was not related in any way at all to their course of study. Maprang had opted for "Society Issues". The students were all required to product a short advertisement of what they thought are issues faced by the society.

"Maprang, I'm sure you can find someone else that's willing to help you. Besides..." He flipped to the second page of her draft. "Why do I have to be naked except for a towel while sitting on  the bed?"

The petite girl was already armed with an answer, "One of the issues we're trying to highlight is safe sex." The corners of Maprang's lips tilted down into a pout. "You're Mr.Campus-"

"Two years ago." Kongpob pointed out.

"-and head hazer. The likelihood of the students paying attention to the advertisement is higher."

"She's got a point." Tew pointed out. "But...Maprang, do you have a death wish? I don't think P'Arthit will appreciate seeing his boyfriend half-naked on the bed with another guy."

Kongpob flashed his classmate a grateful look. Saved. He honestly wanted to help Maprang, but...being half-naked in bed with another man, even if it was purely for an advertisement, didn't feel right. He had witnessed the extent of Artht's jealousy two years ago with the whole misunderstanding about Prae. No way he wanted a repeat of that

Maprang sighed in defeat, "Well...you're right. I don't want to get on P'Arthit's bad side. He might just make me go through hazing all over again." Suddenly, she brightened up. "Tew! How about you? You're not dating anyone. No girlfriend. No boyfriend. And if you've got the right face for it."

"I-"

"Please, Mr.Class President?" Maprang placed her palms together as if begging him. "I'm at my wits end. Besides, you'll get 10 credit units as participation points."

If there was one weakness Tew had, it was being unable to say "no". Maprang had helped him countless of times with class and hazing event alike, and he really didn't have the heart to turn him down.

"Please?"

"Okay. Fine."

"YEEEEES! Thank you, Class President!" Maprang did a little dance of victory and then flounced off to her seat happily.

"Thanks, Tew. You saved my ass back there. Kongpob said gratefully. "Then again...I don't think P'Knot will be pleased too."

The other male took his seat next to Kongpob, "What's this got to do with him?"

Kongpob merely grinned, "Seriously, Tew? You can't be that oblivious."
