   "Do you think Third is still coming after what happened today?" Bone asked from his place on Khai's couch.

    "He's coming" Khai said simply.

    "How can you be so sure?  I mean was I really seeing things correctly?  Did Third really cry?" Two asked, "I mean, he never  cries.  He just always seems so...careless."

    Khai sighed as he leaned back in his chair, "Because Third never bails.  Guys, don't bring it up when he comes, alright?  I don't want him to feel uncomfortable...just act normal."

    "Alright, alright" Two nodded.

    "Must be him" Khai stood up to open the door prior to hearing a knock at his door.

    "Sorry I'm late.  Hope you all set everything up by now" Third said as he walked in, not even taking a second to look at anyone.  "...Guess you haven't" Third sighed as he went over to the camera.

    "Oh sorry, we got kind of side-tracked.  I'll set it up for you" Two said.

    "Thanks" Third nodded, "Khai, are you ready for the ending scene?"

    "Hm?  Oh yeah, be ready to be blown away" Khai winked.

    "By what?  By how conceited you are?" Third seemed to ease down a bit after hearing Khai joke around with him as per usual.  Seeing Khai act normal made Third feel relieved in a way.

    "Ohoo don't act clueless.  I meant by my acting skills of course~  Oh and don't forget about the kiss" Khai smirked.

    "Do I need to remind you that the kiss is going to be fake?" Third raised an eyebrow at him.

    "Well yeah, I know, but it takes a good actor for it to be convincing" Khai grinned, "Oh are you practicing right now?  Your cheeks are so red" Khai teased.

    "Oh fuck off" Third slapped his shoulder as he averted his eyes to look at the script.

    "So feisty" Khai smirked.

    "Anyways..." Third said as he completely ignored Khai's comment, "After Khai says 'Can we start over?', cut so we can change the angle to make it seem like we're kissing, okay?"

    "Got it" Two nodded, "should we start now?"

    "Yeah, I'm ready" Third nodded.

    "Okay, 3...2...1...action!"

    "Ming, when I told you I liked you, I really meant it" Khai stepped closer and Third couldn't keep himself from stepping back a bit at the close proximity.

    "It's hard for me to say the same after everything that has happened."

    "I know that I've hurt you in the past and I can't promise you I'll never hurt you again, but I can promise that I will try not to.  Can we start over?"

    "Cut!"

    "You don't have to hold your breath you know?" Khai teased when Third released a breath after a seemingly long period of time.

    "I know" Third rolled his eyes, "When we start you're going to lean your head to the left, okay?"

    "More like I'm going to have to bend in half for you" Khai rolled his eyes.

    "I'm the one that has to crane my neck" Third put a hand on his hip.

    "No one told you to be so short" Khai shrugged.
