"I'm not as blind as you, dumbass." he said bitterly.

Hearing his tone New quickly changed the topic. He told Tay to pick something from the menu for him since he couldn't decide.

After a minute or two, Off and Gun joined their table. Right away they were told to quickly choose something because others were starving and ready to order.

"Papi, what are you craving?" he leaned towards him.

Off pointed at one dish from the menu, still listening to what that brainless couple was talking about. 

They were happily telling some details about the scenario for their upcoming series. It seemed like they are dying of excitement to start shooting.

"I can't choose between these two. I'd really like to try both but that'd be too much for one person."

"We can share it." said Off without hesitation.

"These aren't your tastes. There are vegetables and sauce in it" he said disappointedly and looked at Tay and New. Both didn't have any intentions to change their choices.

"Flip a coin."

"Hm?"

"They're saying that if you have two as good options, and you have no clue which to choose, you should flip a coin. This way you won't regret your decision."

 He got out 10TBH from his back pocket and put it in the small hand.

"Wisdom of an old prick. " Tay said to New, pointing at Off with a mean smile.

"In your case stupid jerk, the age is not helpful." he stared challengingly at his peer with an ironic smile.

"Oh, don't shit yourself."

Tay was still broadly smiling and New who is used to see this quarrels just kept on laughing at each biting remark. Before Gun was done with flipping the coin, they had already thrown plenty of nasty curses at each other.

The disturbing noises summoned a waitress who was ready to take their orders. After the dishes had been served they calmed down and started to eat.

The rest of the day Off and Gun did formalities in the office. They also had a routine talk with their managers who told them the good news that they're likely to gain more popularity as a ship.

According to the marketing department, they estimated future waves of thousands of new fans after the broadcast of their new series.


~~time skip~~

Many days were passing as usual. After the broadcast of Puppy Honey, they were getting more jobs, for example, they hosted a lot of events of the shop's opening or product promotions.

Off felt like a fish in the water since the beginning of his performance career was being a presenter. Definitely, on the stage, he doesn't lack confidence or charisma.

He could blab about everything without losing flow. He also knows how to handle each inconvenient question or situation, at least he knows how to successfully turn it into a joke

Gun is not so self-assured about being on the stage. Of course, his acting skills are useful there, but that's not enough.

No scenario forecasts every unpredictable situation or questions from viewers. Sometimes he stammers or he suddenly forgets Thai words to properly speak his mind.

Every time that happens Off is there for him. He never leaves the younger guy without support when he needs him.

"Papi, thanks. As always you saved my butt."

After they had entered the service room the taller man felt Gun wrapping around him from behind. The little guy softly put his head on his wide back and glued fully to his body.

Small hands were subtly stroking bigger one's chest. Unusually they were alone what caused chills down Off's spine.

"Sure thing."

Off awkwardly pulled out his phone from his back pocket and open some random app to distract himself from incoming thoughts.

"Since we already free and at the mall... How about a little shopping?"

Gun grabbed Off's big hand and stood in front of him. As he was eagerly waiting for the response he used his puppy eyes combined with an adorable smile.

The tall man couldn't say no to that look. He nodded in agreement. The most beautiful dimples in the world showed up on Gun's face as he was grinning. Off gently pinched that cute cheek. The little guy embraced him once again and put head close to his chest, breathing in Pappi's smell. This time Gun was hugging him tighter and seemed unlikely to let go.

"Chanel, Gucci, Dior... " he read from his phone.

As predicted Gun immediately broke off the embrace and excited stared at the screen.

Off breathed a sigh of relief. If this took longer Gun would surely hear the loud beating of his unmanageable heart.

"This one is a must, Papi!" he pointed at one luxury brand, his black pupils were hilariously getting bigger.

Off seeing this expression of joy snorted with delight.  Right after they went straight to that place.

After entering the shop Gun turned into a five-year-old kid in a candy shop. He ran thrillingly through the store, touched and tried almost every piece. The loud noise he was making was capturing all of the staff's attention.

Every time he found something eye-catching he showed it to Off telling him that: he loooves it, already saw it on IG or wanted it for so long. He spoke each sentence when ridiculously jumping like a little kangaroo.

The whole scene looked damn hilarious and made Off laugh so much that his tummy started to hurt.

Obviously, brand sweets are pretty expensive but who predict payment from little kids. It's the parents' job to spoil their darlings.

"Thank you, Papi. I promise I'll repay you next month. " he said with a sincere smile, holding in hands three shopping bags.

"There is no need. I've got money for that. " Off gave him a winning grin.

"If not for you, I wouldn't be a well-paid man now. " he added.

Gun's acting experience, commitment mixed with clinginess indeed affected their popularity rise. He is the best ship partner he ever could have and Off loves to bring little guy's smile in every possible way.

"Where else do you want to go?" he was prepared for a longer shopping tour.

"Papii~" he spoke adorably surprised. "Dior."

"Lemme check."

"Your future wife is going to be the luckiest woman in the world!" the little guy said joyfully, still staring at the gifts.

Gun was so absorbed in posting IG story that he didn't notice Off's huge smile rapidly vanished the moment he said that sentence.

Soon after he had put back his phone he noticed that taller man's expression somehow looked strangely serious.

"Not necessarily a woman."
