The Price For A Kiss

Scene 7

A/N : Let's learn a bit about Kong in this chapter na~ I experiment on a slightly different characteristic for him in this ff.

****

As he expected, the fans are in uproar once the news about him taking part in the drama with Kongphob released. Many fans believe that the kiss was just a hype the agency hope to build and to hint about the relationship dynamic it will have. Some of them thrilled of the possibility of him to get paired with a man, because they often feel that even though he got the chemistry with the actress he paired up with, they seem to be unfit to be together. There are fans who also skeptical how the drama would pan out and will just sit back and look at the development. But there are also fans who rejected the notion, and showing their dislike and discontent through social media.

..just business as usual.

On that note, though. Arthit had to pat his own back at the job well done because he survived a month in close proximity with Kongphob, almost unscathed. At least he didn't feel the need to punch the other man again, at any rate. So he feel accomplished. Khun Roy also softened up these days, giving a green light for him to sing the OST for the drama, so he is also busy preparing all of that. The songs will be included in his mini album that will be release once the promotion of the drama ended. Hey, he is not complaining. He got an upgrade to have mini album instead of single! Yay!

He already done the photoshoot for the official photo of the drama, with Kongphob flirting left and right in front of him. he also went and diligently did the workshop with everyone else. he shuddered remembering all the things he had to do with Kongphob to get them feel closer, and what he had to do once the filming start. The younger man though, he looks ecstatic and often grins at him for no reason at all. Arthit doesn't understand one bit of that.

Kongpbob is.. endearing, if Arthit had to grudgingly said, once he knows the younger man more closely. He is actually polite and could smile and be kind to everyone. That's showing the good upbringing, Arthit would say. He also didn't vocally complain about anything even though he is tired and showing how hard working he truly is. He really has the potential to be the raising star. One would be thinking that he wanted to be in the spotlight for a long time, but Kongphob confessed to him in one of the session in their workshop, that he was just learning the rope in this industry. He would rather be in the background, in league of what he has been learning and have earned a master degree for it.

It's no wonder not many people knew about him, Arthit think, because the man has been keeping a low profile while he studied in the USA for the past years. Arthit heard from Knot that the younger man even goes to such length to get a double bachelor degree, one for communication arts and the other is business management. All for chasing his dream to become a director and to get the permission from his family to pursue it.

Arthit has a grudging respect now for that younger man.

Damn it.

He stretched his arm up his head, feeling the crunch of the bones realigning themselves more firmly in his body. He feels tired, sure, but also excited. This week he will start recording his songs, after all. He hope his fans would like them.

"Ai' Arthit, the record room is ready now." Knot said from the door.

"I'll be there." He smiled to his friend.

Time to start working!
