Ambivalence [Completed]

-3-

Hi. Chapter 3 is up. While I'm writing this, I'm trying to picture myself in Kong's POV, what he truly feels for Arthit. And also sorry for making Arthit such a selfish demanding person. Haha. But I sometimes think that aside from his brutal side, he personally can also be cute and adorable!  Like always, thanks to voters, comments . You guys are my strength. Happy reading!!

Five days of sleepless nights, Arthit was suffering with anxiety. Bright scolded him brusquely after he got caught lying in bed, refusing to go to school the day after the awful kiss. Kongphop played me really well. Arthit started having a second thought about quitting school and completely getting rid of Kongphop which he knows Bright will definitely oppose to his dumb idea.

The first time Arthit decided that he had enough of everything, he went to school in hope he won't get blacklist by his frequent absent. He had been good in avoiding Kongphop. Mingling on the quad of the main campus, they accidentally bumped into each other and Arthit had flung at the taller boy in all bitter bile in his heart. It was an awkward meeting he must say, with Kongphop's face just inches away. Arthit froze in his spot as breath caught in his throat.

Inwardly, Arthit shivered as their body touched and tentatively pushed up to stare at the perfect profile. The tender light that shone in those sharp eyes, the gentleness of his features, that soft luscious lips begging to be kiss, the passion in his smile...

"Knock it off princess! It's too late for daydreaming. Day time is almost over."

Horrified at himself, he backed away from Kongphop and spat, "I wasn't daydreaming, brat! Who the hell are you calling me princess?!"

Arthit bolted across the street, knowing he failed miserably to hold onto his dignity. Longing to go home and locked himself in his room, and never, never ever to come out. Not until the image of Kongphop long gone from his head.

Kongphop was acting like nothing happen since then but Arthit swore he can feel the smile of mocked victory thrown towards him, cutting him deep inside. No, it wasn't the fact that they had been in this state several times. But, it was because he found himself being weak and helpless while Kongphop was brave. Too much stupidity going on there, Arthit thought. His pride was hurting. He had actually fallen in love and it was far stupidest mistake he had ever felt in his entire life.

It was late evening when Kongphop was on his way back home. Suddenly, the clap sound emerged. A breath later, he paused in his walk and cocked his head to one side as if listening to something. He heard nothing save the beat of his own heart. The clap-clap pattern could hardly be heard coming from somewhere, the sounds issued from an unknown location near the main hall and were getting closer by the second.

Kongphop eyed his surrounding, then held his bag tighter to his chest and walked slowly down the corridor in the direction of the noises source.

The unsettling clap-clap sound echoed continuously and above it he heard someone yelling, another terrible sound this time and he was sure that it did come from human's throat. He could sense it, there was intense fight going on at the end of the hallway. Kongphop neither know nor cared. But, the voice he seemed to recognize lured him in.

"Give it back now!" Arthit exclaimed furiously.

Tee whistle while swung the phone in his hand back and forth, making him really angry, "Idiot, you still can't reach it with your two damn legs."

"Tee Thanapon, give me the fucking phone or else," He threatened.

"Or else what? You gonna fly over here and slap me again?"
