Kongpob's POV
He got shot on his arm. The wound was not that deep. I've also dressed it.
I sighed.
I would assume it won't cost his life but how could he hide the pain from me? He even drove for hours and trekked for a couple more hours. Impressive pain tolerance!
I sat at the edge of the bed and stared at Arthit. He looked so innocent and at peace when he's asleep, way too different when he's awake and has a gun on his hand. Damn, he looked so hot with-- Hey! What am I thinking?!
I almost got a heart attack when my phone vibrated all of the sudden. I quickly pulled it out from my pocket.
It's my father! He must have been worried that I didn't called him. I immediately answered the phone, only to hear 3 consecutive gunshots.
Bang.
Bang.
BANG!
I wanted to speak but I was too afraid. Why are there gunshots? What happened to my father? He couldn't possibly be...
I froze when an unfamiliar voice spoke.
No...No...
I yelled.

Arthit's POV
I got up immediately when I heard someone yelled. It was Kongpob. He was holding his phone next to his ear. Who is he talking to?
I was shocked when he cried loudly. He was still holding his phone right to his ear as he started to curse the person on the other end of the line. Without thinking, I snatched away his phone and put it onto speaker mode.
I clenched my fist upon hearing a familiar voice. I grabbed the phone and threw it on the wall.
That bastard... How cowardly of him to involve innocent people in this mess! My heart is filled with anger.
I looked at Kongpob.
And feared what I saw.
He was staring blankly on the empty space. Tears kept flowing down his cheeks, mouth ajar, body trembling. I called his name again and again but he's not answering.
He's now in the state of shock.
Without thinking, I did what I thought is the best for him right now.
I pulled him to a tight hug. I whispered to him words of comfort, assurance and encouragement. He was not responding. I pulled back from the hug and looked him in the eyes.
Kongpob.
Kongpob...
Kongpob! Gather your shit together!
I knew it was not comforting at all but to my surprise, that made him snapped back to reality.

Kongpob's POV
Kongpob! Gather your shit together!
Words that I didn't expect I needed to hear.
Though my vision became too clouded because of the tears, I managed to get a good look on his face. He looked... angry?
I should be the one getting angry! I got dragged into this mess! I was chased by unknown people! And now my father is dead!
Dead.
Dead...?
Oh.
Yeah...
My father...
He's dead.
I felt a surge of anger inside me building up. I glared at Arthit while clenching my teeth.
My father died because you got me into this mess!
I pushed him forcibly on the bed, weighed him down so that he couldn't move and start hitting his chest hard. But Arthit didn't even defend himself. He was looking at me with sad eyes. I stopped for a moment. No, he's not really concerned but... why would a stranger, a criminal-- have that look in his eyes?
I screamed out of anger and threw a hard blow on his face-- did it several times until my knuckles are bleeding, and so as his face. But he was not doing anything. He never tried to defend himself nor stop me from hurting him. He was still looking at me with those sad eyes. Is he doing this out of pity?
I was too busy figuring out what's on his mind that I didn't notice his hands on my cheeks. He ran his thumbs just below my eyes to wipe the tears away. I was taken aback. Was he not angry after all the beating he received from me?
And as I try to swat his hands away, he pulled me to a hug. His gesture made me confused even more. I tried to release myself but the hug kept getting tighter. Each attempt to be free from his arms was a real struggle. How can he be so strong?
I stopped struggling. I tried releasing the tension in my body. I tried to comprehend everything.
No, it wasn't his fault to begin with. It was of my own volition to come with him. I might have been confused when he start dragging me out of that place but there were so many chances to escape.
And I chose not to.
I followed him... And here I am, despite the overflowing sorrow I'm feeling...
I still want to be with him.
We were just strangers who met in the most unconventional situation. And in the short period of time we were together...
I think I've just found the place where I truly belong to.

Arthit's POV
It's been a while since I held him in my arms and he's been quite ever since. Thinking about how calm he became after the sudden venting of anger worries me. What made him act like that?
I closed my eyes and tried to absorbed everything that happened since yesterday.
I was tasked to deliver a large sum of money to the now-dead client in exchange of illegal drugs and smuggled firearms. Actually, that wasn't really the plan. After 'giving' the money, I'll let the newbies deal with the client. And yeah, before I knew it, he was dead. And so was the newbies.
Yes, I am working for someone who's business is to buy illegal drugs and firearms.
I can confidently say that I was one of the most trusted men in the group. Was. At first I was perplexed as to why the higher up wants me dead. But after the ambush, I was certain that he wanted me dead because of what I know.
My trains of thoughts were cut off when I heard Kongpob sobbing. I put my hand at the back of his head and start patting it as a way to console him. I still don't know what made him act that way but whatever it is, it would've been so bad.
I suddenly remembered the phone call. And one familiar voice. I felt the anger rushed through me that I didn't notice Kongpob was complaining about my hand getting 'heavy'.
I am now certain why Kongpob acted like that earlier. They've messed up with his family. They might have been killed.
I looked at him. Although the only thing I can see right now is his hair and the only thing I can hear from him are sobs, one thing is for sure. he was badly hurt.
I softly called his name, and he looked at me. Those eyes were filled with anger earlier, but now I can only see pain and sadness. I didn't know what to say to comfort him. I was never good with words, so I let my actions do the talking instead.
__
Kongpob's POV
He's looking at me right now. How I wished I could melt right now because this isn't the right time to be giddy. I tried to look somewhere else but my eyes could never stray away from him. I felt his hands on my cheeks. It's warm and soothing that I had to close my eyes to feel its calming effect.
I opened my eyes again and our faces are just inches away from each other. I wanted to back away but...
And he closed the gap between us. I wasn't able to respond at first. There's a lot of things that going on inside my mind, but when he cupped my cheeks, everything that I was thinking flew out.
His hand found its way around my nape, the other on my waist as he switched our position. He pulled away for a bit-- he's staring at me again. Oh damn, why do you have to do that?
He then leans in to give my lips feathery kisses before actually kissing me. The kiss was gentle at first, he was nibbling softly on my lower lip while I do the same on his upper lip, we were chuckling in the middle of exchanging kisses. How's that for two strangers?
He pulled back and start showering my neck with kisses and light bites. I couldn't stop the low moan from coming out of my mouth. I've done this so many times with other people but why does it feels so good and true when he's the one doing it?
I gasped when he start sucking on my collarbone, leaving marks that I would gladly look at the mirror later. He started to unbutton my shirt, every exposed skin gets to be kissed by his lips. I squirmed when I felt his tongue on one of my nipples, swirling it around on repeat before suckling on it. Damn, just what do you think you're doing, Arthit? I'd go crazy if you continue doing this!
He's unstoppable. After taking off my shirt, his hands found its way to my pants as his mouth continue to feast all over my chest. He's sucking and licking my sanity away. And he's not satisfied; my nipples took turns in getting pleasured by his tongue.
------
Arthit's POV
Hearing him moan excites me even more. I started to work my hands on his pants as I give his chest the attention it deserves. I glanced at him; his eyes are closed and he's biting his lower lip as if he's asking for more. And as if he has read my mind, he pushed me so he can sit. He clumsily took of my shirt, grabbed me on my nape and pulled me to a kiss.
I responded in a way that surprised him. As soon as our lips met, I immediately pushed my tongue inside his mouth and started playing with his tongue. Without a care in the world and even with his reaction, I tilted my head so I can kiss him deeper. He's fighting back. He swirls his tongue around mine but I was able to suck his first, drawing a muffled moan from him. He's getting excited and I wanted to see more.
I pulled away from the kiss, though I can see the dismay on his face, I planned to take this to the next level. With his belt already unbuckled, I unbuttoned his pants; unzipping it a bit before forcing my hand inside, immediately making contact with his restricted manhood. He lets out a low moan as I start to rub it with my palm. I wanted to tease him but he was way into it that he took the initiative of yanking out the rest of his garments.
I tried holding it in as I want to tease him more but I couldn't stop myself now, not when he's baring everything right before my eyes. I pushed him down the bed and stared directly in his eyes. The pain and sadness already disappeared. I can only see the intense desire in his eyes right now. Only caring about what's to happen, I took of my remaining clothes before leaning in to kiss him again. He wrapped his arms around me with the intention of kissing me back but ended up moaning my name when I pushed my shaft into him.
I started to move, slowly , but when he kept begging me to do more, all the remaining inhibitions suddenly flew out of the window.

Kongpob's POV
When was the last time I felt something like this?
It felt familiar, but I couldn't remember the details.
I looked at Arthit who's currently sleeping beside me. He's now part of me. An image I wouldn't want to erase, a memory I wouldn't want to forget. Suddenly, tears start travel down my cheeks. I don't know why, but I wanted this moment to be engraved in my mind for a long time... And so I continued to look at him. What's with this uncertainty I'm feeling?
I like to cuddle, but no one wants to do that to someone like me. But maybe... Maybe I can do it with Arthit.
I slowly move beside him.
Closer.
Closer...
Before he himself pulled me into his arms. I looked at him, surprised by what he did. He opened his eyes to look at me and smiled.
I smiled back. He's so sweet. I wanted to melt in his arms.
He stared at me again before kissing my forehead.

Arthit's POV
I got up, leaving him alone in the bed, and went to gather my clothes. I turned around to look at him. He's all smiles.
I smiled back at him but... what's this feeling of uncertainty?
After wearing my clothes, I looked at him once more, and left the room.
I walked to the kitchen, prepared something for the two of us to eat. There's a few items on the pantry and I chose to utilized all of it. After all, this will be the last time I'm staying here.
After almost an hour, the food is now on the table. Before calling Kongpob out to eat, I went out of the house to call someone first.
When I got back, he was already sitting on sofa, all dressed up. He turned around to look at me and smiled.
That's all I need.
I walked to him and offered my hand. He gladly reached out his hand to mine and held it tightly. I smiled at the gesture.
He stood up and dragged me instead to the table. His eyes were fixed on the food as he sat down. He then asked me if he could start then I nodded.
He starts to munch down the food I have prepared. I told him to slow down but he won't listen until he choked on the food. Gosh, this guy. I offered him a glass of water so he can chug down the food and he immediately drank it. He even pouted at me after gulping down the entire content of the glass before going back to munching the food away.
Why do I have to experience all these things right now?
I grimaced at the thought.
Kongpob must've noticed that I am in engulfed in my own thoughts, so he went to me and hug me. He didn't say anything and just hugged me. Somehow, I felt at ease. I hugged him back and unconsciously, there were tears flowing down my cheeks. I hugged him, tighter. I don't want this moment to end. I want to stay like this. For a long time.
We stayed like that for quite some time. And before I noticed it, there were gunshots everywhere.
