Your man

Twenty-one

*Arthit's POV*

"If only you knew Kongpob..." Arthit said smiling sadly.

"I have to thank Kaofang for that.  Whenever someone new came to work at the hospital, they wanted to help me.  But when they hit a dead end, they would give up.  Kaofang almost gave up on me too.  I got caught by her when she hummed our song.  From that day she started spending more time with me.  It was annoying at first. But, eventually I got used to it, and it was nice to have someone talk to me.  Then she spoke about her sister and her best friend.  One day she told me her best friend might be able to recognize me and that he was a talented cop.  She was excited and talked a lot about you.  I knew you were coming.  That's why I wasn't surprised.  It didn't change how I felt when I saw you Kong."

Singto watched him with his mouth open.

"Then I saw how much you had suffered because of me.  That's when I realized how important it was for me to prove myself," Arthit continued.

"How did you survive in that place Arthit?  It wouldn't have been easy," said Singto.

"It was nothing compared to the pain of living without you.  It's in the past now Kongpob.  You are back in my life.  Please tell me we can be like we were before."

"Do you want to return to how we were before Arthit?  The past with nothing but lies and pain?"

Arthit panicked, did that mean Kongpob didn't want him in his life anymore?

Singto kissed Arthit full on the lips.

"Let's start over.  I'm Singto.  That's P' Singto for you.  I'm a police officer, and you are?"

Arthit let out a laugh in relief.

"Right, P' Singto.  I'm Arthit, and I'm a criminal."

Singto frowned at him.

"You aren't a criminal anymore.  We will start a new life far away from here.  Let's get some sleep now.  We have a lot of packing to do," he said trying to stand up.

Arthit held onto Singto's Arm.

"Ko... I mean... P' Sing... I don't want to sleep..." he said turning beet red.

"Arthit..." Singto said, biting his lip.  "You are still weak."

"Please..."

Singto lifted Arthit off the couch easily and headed to the bedroom.

"Let's sleep alright.  You have to gain your strength back.  I'm not going anywhere.  I will be here right next to you," Singto said.

Arthit could read Singto's expression.  He seemed to be having a tough time sticking to his own words.

His Kongpob was always considerate of him, Arthit smiled happily.

"Kiss me."

*************************

*Six months later.*

Arthit waited for his turn.  He didn't expect Knott to accept his request to see him.

"Ai Arthit!  I was wondering when you were going to visit me.  Does your boyfriend know?" Knott asked smiling sarcastically.

"How have you been?" Arthit asked.

"Funny you should ask.  You told the detective where to find us.  I knew it was you.  Because only four people knew that place and it's not Bright or his father who betrayed us.  How much did you sell us for, you bastard!  Nai killed Bright because of you!" Knott hissed.

Arthit chuckled, "Nai?  My childhood neighbor?  Nice guy.  Would do anything for money.  You fool.  Nai is just a businessman."

Knott watched Arthit, confused.  His eyes widened in shock.

"It was you!  You killed Bright." Knott whispered.

"He made a terrible mistake by hurting my P' Sing," said Arthit in a bored voice.  "We didn't have to go that far if the two of you hadn't stabbed me in the back."

Knott grabbed on to the iron bars that separated them.

"I should have known when a sudden rival appeared out of nowhere.  You hid in a hospital like a coward and bit the hand that fed you like a little bitch."

Arthit scoffed, "I was electrocuted, and injected with shit that left me unconscious for days.  There were times I thought I was crazy.  You don't have what it takes Knott.  You are just a child in this game Knott.  It's true there was an error in my calculations, but thanks to you, all is well now."

Knott gritted his teeth, "You will pay for this Arthit."

"Which reminds me why I'm here.  I brought you a small present," Arthit said pushing a newspaper over the counter.

"Bright's father got arrested.  Oh, you have to see who raided his business and made the arrest too!  P' Sing is a hero!" Arthit took back the paper and folded it carefully.

"They shouldn't have hurt P' Sing.  You do understand what I mean don't you, Ai Knott?"

"What will the detective think of you Arthit.  Does he know you are a murderer?"

"Don't you tire your brain worrying about us.  I was in a hospital like a coward, when Bright was killed, remember?  Anyway, I would love to sit here chatting with you, but I have to get going.  Good luck Knott.  Try not to drop the soap."

*************************

Singto hugged him from behind, nuzzling his face on Arthit's shoulder.

"Tough day at work P' Sing?" Arthit asked as he leaned back into Singto's embrace.

"Yeah... there were a couple of raids.  I'm exhausted," Singto whined without raising his head.

"So, I take it you found the people I told you about?  What about the guy in the investigation division?  He is the one who leaks the information on undercover missions," Arthit asked excitedly.

"He is a tough one.  He is much more powerful than when you knew him.  But I'm working on it."

Singto suddenly started to kiss the back of Arthit's neck locking him in his embrace.

"P' Sing..." Arthit managed to say as his voice shook in pleasure.

Singto kept kissing him fiercely.  One of Singto's hands managed to cup his crotch.

"Let's go to bed," Singto said in between kisses.

Arthit happily obliged.

Everything was just as he had planned.

The End
