Blind Trust (MewGulf)

Chapter 7: Why are you being weird?

POV Mew

- Phi, are you mad at me?

- No... what the hell are you talking about?

They were on the set for episode three. They were sitting on a couch in the room next to the filming place, Gulf sitting on Mew's lap.

- We need some footage for "behind the scene" N'Mew - had said MAME a few minutes ago.

- What do you want me to do?

- Do some skinship. Like in workshops. Nothing fancy, just be yourself.

That was going to be a problem, considering the fact that Mew was avoiding Gulf like the plague.

- P'Mew, you've been weird this whole week - Gulf was kinda sulking at that point. His lower lip a little more prominent.

- We are ok Nong - Mew released a sigh - Nothing is wrong.

Mew thought, if he got Gulf to believe those words, maybe he would believe it himself.

Because it was a fact that something was off.

Mew, once again, pulled back from Gulf and kept his distance. All the progress they made in the first few weeks was practically gone. Yes, Mew still touched him and made skinship with Gulf, but gone was the calls and messages, the little talks they had every now and then, the funny games they'd do in workshops, all gone.

And now, Gulf was starting to get upset.

- I want to know if I did something wrong Phi. Won't you tell me? - Gulf turned around and looked at Mew with sad eyes.

- We're fine Gulf. I'm just tired. My master is taking my sleep away.

And the nightmares.

Gulf didn't seem convinced, but for the time he let it pass. He accommodated himself on Mew's lap and let the older hug him tight.

-----------------------------------**---------------------------------

- Gulf, you need to show some hesitation. Type feels good, but he doesn't want to feel good with Tharn. His body and mind are in a fight in the middle of the scene, and I need your face to show it - Tee was giving Gulf some tips for the bathroom scene.

Mew didn't want to accept the fact that he was nervous. The scene wasn't that complicated at all. He had done more steamy and mature scenes in the past. The problem was just the fact that he was about to kiss and touch Gulf. Again.

Every since Mew heard that Gulf had a girlfriend, his mind had been fuzzy. He shouldn't care. He didn't.

But why did Gulf hid that information from him?

Mew shouldn't be angry after all. He still couldn't completely trust the boy and there was a lot Gulf didn't know about him. So how could he expect Gulf to open up and tell him things like that?

Besides the confusion and anger, Mew felt scared.

He didn't want any misunderstanding to happen while filming the series.

He had a past, not a good one, and even though Gulf didn't seem to care, Mew wasn't sure his girlfriend would feel the same.

But, even though Mew was 29 years old, that didn't mean he was mature and responsible all the time. And instead of talking face to face with Gulf, and solve the issue, he was running away from the younger.

Again.

Sometimes, Mew hated the way he was.

- Are you ready, Phi? - Gulf was suddenly in front of him.
