The Lockdown Effect

Lockdown Effect Down The Rode

Arm opened the door to the bedroom.

He put his bag down slowly staring to pack.

He walked to the bathroom.

In the bathroom he saw the shadow of the man saying with him.

"Your late" Arm said.

Looking at the younger man in the bathroom mirror.

The younger male stepped inside hugging Arm.

Not much different in the height.

Arm turned around putting the bag with toiletries down.

"Tap" Arm said. Running his fingers thru Taps hair.

Tap kissed Arms nose.

"I just had an errand to run, at least I'm here now. The others are probably waiting."

"Mm, take a shower I'll continue packing. I'll pack your bag also." Arm said.

Tap gave a nod.

Taking of his shirt while leaving the bathroom, coming back with a towel around his waist.

Arm looked at the younger male stepping in the shower.

The warm water running down the slim body.

Gun looked at Tays phone in the front.

Off was in the back with Lee.

"Are we getting Arm also?" Lee asked Off.

Off raised his eyebrows. "Ahm. Arm told us to get him last. He still hasn't said whom he'll bring. He gets along with almost anybody."

Lee smiled. "You really don't know who has been staying with Arm a lot lately?" he asked Off.

"I don't. Arm and I might stay in the same building and borrow each other's stuff, but we never talk about who we date or sleep with. Why? Do you know?" Off asked Lee.

"Mm. Arm has been a lot around the rehearsals."

"Ah. So, it's someone from the Grandsons'?"

Lee didn't answer.

He just looked at Off with eyes that made Off even question what he had been asking.

"Ah, ahh. Its fine. You don't have to answer." Off eventually said.

Tay looked over his shoulder back at Off and Lee in the back.

Gun had insisted on sitting with Tay. Not really saying anything. Just wanting to play with Tay's phone and resting his head on Tays arm.

"Gun." Tay said gently.

The smaller male looked up at him.

"What is it Tay"

"Have you talked to Arm? Do he know the time we pick him up?"

Gun grabbed Tay's hand and pulled it, dropping his head on Tay's shoulder.

"Mm. He asked to be the last. So, we get him now. I think he is with whomever he is dating."

Tay smiled.

"Have he told you??" Tay asked Gun.

Gun nodded.

"I was surprised at first, then everything made sense." Tay said.

Gun looked at Tay. "He told you?"

"Lee did. He showed me a picture he had taken. Arm and I don't really talk about that stuff. We mostly just enjoy hanging out. Taking pictures and stuff like that."

"Ohh. Arm really have kept things in the low."

Tay nodded. "Mm. But it made sense when I realized it was Tap, he was seeing."

The Minibus stopped outside Arms place.

Tay looked at Arm and Tap standing there casually waiting for them.

Gun jumped out helping Arm with the bag.

Tay looked at the three males walking into the bus. Gun siting in the front next to Tay and Arm behind Tay.

Tap behind Gun.

The silence that fell over the bus was to feel on.

Tay took up his camera and begun to look at it with fascination.

Arm ruffled Tay's hair.

Gun was the first to break the silence. 

Off looked up at Gun as he spoke smiling gently.
