Phones

Chapter 2

With a small smile on my face, I walk back into Lam's house. The whole gang is there playing video games, but I don't care. I have something more interesting to think about.

That gorgeous boy with the pale, almost white skin, and those dark brown eyes that look innocent, but by the number of messages that were popping up and the few things that I saw, I know that he is far from innocent.

As I walk to the kitchen, Lam calls out, "Hey, Forth. Did you get your new phone?"

I call out over my shoulder, "Yeah." I open the refrigerator and grab a beer.

As I walk back into the living room, from the couch, Lam turns and looks at me. He slowly raises his eyebrow and taps Park's arm, who is sitting next to him.

I walk towards the chair and sit down as Park huffs, "What? I'm about ready to kill this monster."

However, Lam doesn't say anything. He continues to stare at Forth while Forth pulls out his new phone and stares at it. Instead, Lam slaps Park's arm again and motions with his head towards Forth when Park whips around about ready to scream.

Park growls and looks towards Forth. However, his anger quickly dissolves when he spots a small smile on Forth's face.

Just like Lam, Park slowly raises an eyebrow and asks, "Boss, did something happen while you were getting your phone."

With Forth's attention still on his phone, his nods his head, but stays quiet.

Park and Lam slowly turn and look at each other, still confused on what is going on.

Not noticing what is happening, Max slaps Park's arm. "Hey! You just got killed! I need you in the game to help us get through this part."

Tul notices that something is going on and quickly gets up off the couch and pauses the game.

Max instantly whips his head towards Tul and huffs, "Hey! Why did you do that?"

As Tul goes to sit back down on the couch, he taps Max's leg and then uses his finger to point towards Forth, who is still staring at his phone.

With everyone looking at Forth, Lam tries again. "Forth, what exactly happened?"

With Forth still looking at his phone, he pulls up his gallery and stares at the few pictures that he was able to secretly take of Beam. As his finger slowly hovers of Beam's picture, he replies, "I got couple phones."

Lam tilts his head while the others are just as confused as him.

Lam asks, "You got two phones?"

Forth shakes his head. "No. I got couples phone. Both are black."

Park taps Lam on the shoulder and whispers, "I thought he said that he only got one phone. Why is he smiling? It is giving me the creeps."

Lam ignores Park. "Forth, you just said that you got two phones. Who got the other phone?"

Forth finally looks up and flashes an even bigger smile. "Beam. We are a couple now."

Lam nearly falls on the floor while the others' mouth falls wide open. Forth is dating someone, but how.

Lam is the first to recover and able to speak. "Forth, how can you be a couple already? I have never heard of Beam before, so I'm assuming that you just met him at the phone store."

Still with a smile on his face, Forth stands up and announces, "I have to go, but we are going out tomorrow night. Tell the gang to get there early to save us a table."
