The unseen love

Chapter XXVI -> A lovely day

Kongpob pov

When he said those words my heart bursted inside my chest. Me laying in his lap with our hands intertwined, but there was one question though that was bothering for quite some time already. I had been able to hide it from him but now it seemed the time to ask. Oon, why do You love Me?

How should I answer that question? It wasn't something I could easily explain as it was something I felt. I just felt love for him, which I showed but why I didn't know for sure. I just liked his care, his personality, his voice, his presence etc but weren't those the symptoms of love and not the reasons for it? His question rattled my uncertainty again, what should I answer to him, I don't know? You know he won't accept that for an answer. At least he had some kind of a reason for his live for me but I wouldn't know why. At such moments I could doubt everything, wasn't he just a father figure for me? You know better Arthit, think of that kiss, you didn't feel nothing huh? I felt as if I was in heaven, my heart had nearly bumped out of my chest of enthusiasm. So what to answer him? I love you Kongpob, because my heart told and tells me to do so. It tells me I like you, it tells me I like your presence, it tells me I loved your voice, it convinced me I first liked and now love you. I had no experience with love. In my opinion we were just very good friends, though I had been asking myself whether our kinship and cuddling sometimes when I had nightmares didn't point to something else. Looking back I felt in love with you from the first moment. But though my heart had realized it my mind sure hadn't so I remained oblivious, a fool in love. That all changed when grandma called me that day, when she referred to you as my boyfriend everything suddenly seemed to make sense for me. It led me to ask you for your motivations, secretly hoping you would like me as well. And like that it turned out. So in the end I love you because my heart loves you, and like you experienced, where the heart goes, the mind at some point follows.

His heart told him, I chuckled at his answer. We had a lot to thank his grandma for. From what he told me it seemed she pushed us towards one another, if she hadn't done so who knows for how long he would have been oblivious of his feelings.

It was late and we talked for some time but soon went to bed. It was 5:37 am already but we had the time.

When we woke up it was 12 O'clock already. We didn't do anything that day. Arthit went to take a bath, though my friendly question whether he needed some company was denied by a high pitched Arthit who saw as red as a strawberry. He had rushed into the bathroom locking the door. I chuckled at his reaction, at some point his shyness would subside. What I hadn't expected though was his head popping around the door, with water dripping from all edges telling me that on second thought some company could be nice. When I didn't react he had remarked in his signature annoyed voice: want me to beg you to join me? Yes, that would be great. But when he replied I should just stay here I jumped up, sorry Oon, no offense meant though, I am truly sorry for this massive inconvenience I caused you. Shush. At that point I wisely remained silent, otherwise I could really say goodby to us sharing bath for at least the coming century. Somehow I couldn't get my eyes of him. He didn't go the the gym but had a relative good posture, bit chubby but I liked that, at least you had something to touch. Shut the dirty thoughts Kongpob. What dirty thoughts P', what do you even think of me huh? Certainly not that you're a saint or so, ssshh, calm down sweetheart, just relax. I could sense he was a bit shy, so I took him in my arms, nothing to be shy about P'. He relaxed in my arms while I washed his body and hair, rubbing his skin with the soap. It felt great to touch his soft skin, and I sure enjoyed it seems He also liked my touch, he shivered underneath it, while I could feel his heart going wild. A nice pink blush was colouring his cheeks but when I finished he let out a soft whine, and pouted. I chuckled, What's so funny, you should see your own face, you look like a dejected puppy. Missing my touch? KONG!!! Well you can rub me in with soap if you like. He didn't react for some moments, before reacting just a bit too eager, yesss, uh I mean fine.

Finally, I could touch him, his touch on my skin had felt like electric bolts flying through. I had shivered from it but it gave me pleasure. I just wanted to do the same, feel his skin under my hands, it wasn't as if I couldn't do so. Now I could finaly feel his skin under my hands, and I wouldn't be myself if I hadn't tried to tickle him, and he sure couldn't handle that verh well, he laughed and jerked and twitched around the bath, splashing water around, hahaha please Arthit stop, hahaha please stop, where did my P' go? Please P'Arthit, STOP!. But I hadn't stopped a second before he had turned the tables,reversing our position sending my into a stream of jerks and laughter. Seems you like this as much as I do, judging from your laughter. You, you...... I was out of words. Once he stopped I felt back in his embrace, resting my head on his shoulder. My heart was racing while I took his hand, putting it on my chest, feel what you do to me Sim, but he put my hand on his chest, his heart raced as hard as mine. We both smiled. But I had something to ask him.

Kongpob, what exactly did you mean with making our love visible? There is a way you likely will be able to see again. A very expensive operation, but from what I read in those docs grandma gave me it could work in your case. So I might once be able to see? Yes.

I left it at that, we finished our bath and went to the kitchen. Kongpob soon followed to help me with making breakfast. In the beginning he was really a prince in the kitchen incapable of anything except burning, but his performance had improved steadily and right now be was able to make a few dishes without actually ruining the taste. But he had a bland taste, not liking too salt or spicy food. So usually there were some bland and some spicy dishes on the table leaving both of us something to eat.

After dinner we just went back to bed, tired and lazy.

The next morning Arthit woke up with a terrible mood.......
