University Wars

Chapter Four

Ming's POV

I set my bag in the middle of an eerily empty room. He lives in here. It's only a bed with sheets, a desk, and a closet. If it wasn't for the open laptop on the desk I would have thought this was a spare bedroom.

"You can just find room in the closet. There's not much room left though. My closet has become the whole houses extra storage area." He opens the closet and it was actually really big. No wonder it's the extra storage area. There's a TV and a couch in it as well.

"Thank you. We can just share a bed by the way." I tell him noticing that there was only one.

"No. I don't sleep in the same bed as others unless it's my friends. I will try and get the cot in the attic for you." He tells me with furrowed brows.

"It's fine. We can be friends or more." I look in his eyes with a cheeky smile.

"Stop joking. I'll get the cot." He leaves the room.

Arthit's POV

"We only have one bed in some of the rooms. We will probably order some more today. You can take the bed I'll sleep on the ground." I say trying to be polite but it is hard to do that knowing the company he keeps.

"No. No. No. I can sleep on the floor. It's your bed." Kong really is polite. I wonder what he is doing hanging out with someone like Pick.

"I can't have you sleeping on the floor. You're out guest." I argue with him.

"Then we can sleep together." He responds casually.

"What?!" I choke out my response.

"Just until we get more beds. It's fine." Kong is acting like it's the obvious choice.

"I-" My phone rings. It's my mom. I pick it up. "Hello mom."

Mom
Arthit

Hello. How are you?

I'm good how's dad.

Well ummmmm. He's decided that he doesn't want a gay son. He also said your stuff needs to be out of the house in 2 weeks.

Oh. Yeah I can do that.
Are you kidding I'm your son! I try not to break down because I know Kong is right there. It's really hard.

I'm sorry baby. You know how your dad is.

Yeah. No it's whatever.
I also know that if even a slither of your mind disagreed with something you'd fight tooth and nail. Till you won.

Bye.

Bye

She hung up. I feel tears well up in my eyes. I force them to go away. Then turn to Kong. "Okay let's go join the games they probably will start soon."

"Okay." Kong smiles at me. I give a weak smile back.

We walk downstairs.

I don't say anything because I know my friends. They know when I am at a breaking point, and they will think it's Kongs fault. I don't want them to kill him.

"Okay first game 2 truths and 1 lie" Yo says. I hear a lot of moans and groans.

"What are we 7?" Pick complains.

"No, but it will help us get to know each other. Arthit you start." Yo looks me in the eyes. I know that look.

Shit he knows something is wrong. He always starts with himself the goes around the circle clock wise. I'm 2 people away from him. That catches all our friends attention.
