Where do we continue? (Pick and Rome) // Puppy Honey the Series

Back to You

Pick opened the door to his and Porsche's room. He got a bag and stuffed what he could in it. Porsche followed behind him then sat on the bed facing Pick.

For the many years he has known his best friend, not once had he thought that anyone would be capable of stirring up Pick as much as Rome had. Nothing on my part my ass, there would be no other reason for Pick to run to back to Bangkok unless it was about Rome.

"Pick?" Porsche asked, trying to gain the attention of his best friend. 

Pick stopped his actions. He looked up and saw Porsche's questioning face.

Annoyed at Porsche's expression, he continued stuffing his bag. "What?"

"What are you doing?"

"Aren't you tired of this place? Don't you want to at least visit Bangkok? We've been cleaning out a cow pen for a week." Pick replied, trying to reason out his best friend.

"Is this about Rome?"

Pick stopped packing. He realized that he was being rash. Frustrated with his unsettled mind, Pick groaned before laying down on his bed. Porsche was waiting for his best friend to speak. He knew better than to push Pick to explain.

"I must be going crazy", Pick muttered to himself silently, but enough for Porsche to hear.

"Pick, why don't you just admit it to yourself?" Porsche suggested.

"Admit what?" Pick replied in an annoyed tone. Porsche sighed in frustration at his stubborn best friend. He knew that Pick was had headed at times but he was completely irrational at this point.

"What else? How you feel for Rome." Pick didn't reply. Porsche had to say it now or else his best friend would end up regretting his choices later on. 

"What else could it be? Why are you suddenly rushing to Bangkok if not for Rome?"

Pick hesitated before replying. "Emma called."

Porsche tried to look unbothered hearing Emma's name. "and what did she say?"

"Din and Rome are hanging out."

Porsche knew that he missed out on much while he was away but since when was Din suddenly part of the equation? That junior had already messed with him and Emma now he was in the middle of Pick and Rome. 

"Din? That junior who P'Eau asked to follow me around?"

Pick nodded to say yes.

"I didn't know that he and Rome were close"

"He joined the photography club, now he and Rome see each other everyday."

"So what? Rome doesn't like him does he?"

Pick remained silent. He didn't know whether or not Rome liked Din. Yes, Rome had told Pick that he liked him but that didn't answer whether or not he like Din too.

Pick's silence answered Porsche's question. "Did something happen?" Porsche asked.

"They kissed. I think. When we were camping, I went out of the tent and saw them."

Porsche didn't know what to say. He knew that Pick was confused and in denial but he also knew that his best friend isn't the type to easily fall for someone. 

"I'll ask you this again, do you love him?" Porsche shook his head and realized that the question may be too much for Pick to answer. "Forget that, do you feel something for him, anything at all?"

Pick didn't know how to answer. A part of him knew that he felt something strong for Rome but another part of him reminded himself that it was wrong. That he should end things with Rome and not complicate his life. Going for a girl like Rin would be a safer choice. Then again, he wouldn't know what to feel if Rome decided to stop going after him. He was used to the junior's presence. Although he would never admit it, if there was one thing that bothered him for the past month it was that after rejecting his calls, Rome never contacted him again.
