Chapter Twenty

After Rachel had left, the pair continued what they had started before she had so rudely interrupted. The following morning, Khun woke up in Bams bed, an arm lazily lay across him. Humming at the warmth, he shuffled closer to the body behind him wanting to touch his skin.

"Morning babe."

Bam sleepily greeted his boyfriend, squeezing him tightly, earning a squeak and laugh out of the blue haired boy. The pair blissfully lay in bed, enjoying their morning cuddles. Both seemed to be dropping off again when a loud bang could be heard in the apartment. Freezing, the two listened intently as they heard another bang of a door closing, this time closer to them.

"Baaaaaam?"

The familiar voice called out, far too close for them to be comfortable.

"Shit!"

Cursing under his breath, Bam darted from under the covers across his bedroom, grateful that he was wearing his boxers. Khun sat up in bed, huddling up under the covers with just his head poking out as Bam slipped out the room.

"Rachel! What are you doing here?"

Bam had squeezed out of his bedroom, the door opening just wide enough for him to get out so that Rachel wouldn't be able to see into the room.

"Still in bed at this time? Whoops, guys I know you're probably enjoying the view but we'll be right back."

The blonde paused her vlog but not until after she had let her viewers take in Bams toned, unclothed body. Meanwhile the chat was going crazy.

- Wow Viole looks good!

- They are definitely a thing

- They have got to be in a relationship, Viole doesn't even care

- Woot woot!

"Tch"

Khun clicked his tongue, able to hear everything that was being said on the other side of the door. Fortunately he had no idea about the viewers comments.

"Rachel, why are you here!?"

"I decided I would do another live vlog. I know you're not streaming today so I thought you could be in it with me, we can go out and do something."

"I can't today..."

"Why? It's not like you have any other plans right? You'd always be so happy to appear on my vlogs Bam, what's going on with you recently?"

"Nothing, everything is normal."

"Then it's fine! We'll hang out all day like we usually do. You've been streaming a lot more recently Bam, my viewers have missed you on the vlogs."

Unable to admit his plans for the day were his boyfriend who was currently in the room behind them, naked in his bed, Bam agreed to join Rachel. He told her to go wait in the living room whilst he got changed. Making sure she had left the corridor, Bam slipped back into his bedroom.

"Seriously?"

Khun hissed at him.

"Shhh, she'll hear you."

Bam put a finger to his lips as he walked to his closet, telling his boyfriend to be quiet.

"You're going to leave me, just like that?"

Khun crossed his arms as he accused Bam with his hushed words.

"It's not like I have a choice! If you want to get out of here without being seen then this is the only option."

He pulled a couple of towels out from a shelf, throwing one at Khun.

"No it's not. Tell her to leave. Tell her you don't want to be on her vlog."

"You know I can't do that...."

Scowling, Khun remembered when Bam had explained their relationship to him. Rachel was his childhood friend. His only friend. Growing up, he had been subjected to emotional and physical bullying by his peers at school and the other children at the orphanage he had lived in. Rachel was the only one to stay by his side, the light in his dark life. She was someone very special to Bam and, knowing this, Khun couldn't argue.

"Urgh fine!"

Khun threw himself down in the bed, pulling the covers over his head and coccooning himself.

"Babe, don't be like that...."

Approaching the bed, Bam took a seat next to the heap of blankets that held his boyfriend.

"I'm sorry, I'll be back later...."

Still not getting a response from the coccoon, Bam sighed before leaning over and placing a kiss where he thought Khun's face would be.

"I'm sorry..... I love you...."

He stood up from the bed and left the room with his clothes and towel, heading to the bathroom to get showered and dressed.

Finally poking his head out the top of his covers, Khun furrowed his eyebrows and stuck his tongue out at the door. Bam didn't return to the bedroom.

After a while Khun heard the two leaving the apartment. It took him a few moments to believe that Bam had actually chosen to go out with Rachel for the day over being with him. The green eyed monster grew within him as he attempted to convince himself that it couldn't be helped. Even still, he was annoyed with Bam so, rather than waiting in his apartment for him to return, Khun rolled out of bed, showered and returned home.

The day slowly went on, Bam had messaged Khun a few times but, still sulking, he refused to reply. Looking for a distraction, he contacted Shibisu and they decided to play a few games together online. Shibisu had asked if they would be streaming but Khun wasn't in the mood, not wanting to have to worry about pleasing his viewers.

"Hey Khun! It's been a while since we got to play casually together. Bam busy today?"

"Don't know, don't care."

"Right.... so you guys have had a fight."

Shibisu pointed out the obvious when Khun answered.

"Do you want to talk about it?"

"Bam is being an idiot."

"What has he done?"

"He's gone out with Rachel to appear on one of her vlogs. Stupid freckled blonde, she only gets views when Bam appears on them."

"So you're jealous."

Khun scowled and pouted at this, not wanting to admit it out loud.

"Haha! Never thought I would see the day."

Shibisu laughed at the ridiculous behaviour his friend was displaying before offering some advice.

"I don't know the ins and outs of the situation but I do know that jealousy can really hurt a relationship. You probably shouldn't let it get to you too much."

"I shouldn't let it get to me!? You've seen how Bam gets when he's jealous!"

Khun argued back, using the first time Shibisu and Bam had met as an example.

"I know this sounds stupid considering how jealous Bam gets but you are strong enough to push back when he demands something unreasonable and he would listen to you. But if you were to demand something unreasonable....."

"Today I told him not to go and he still did!"

"But did you really push him? I think if you genuinely pushed Bam not to see Rachel anymore, he would do it for you. I mean, he is literally crazy about you. Literally. He's a psychopath. He scares me."

This made Khun smile. He thought himself lucky to have someone so devoted to him and he knew that Bam would do absolutely anything he asked if he really pushed him.

"So do you really want to be the kind of guy that makes unreasonable demands of their partner?"

There was a small pause in their conversation as Khun didn't want to admit defeat.

"You know Shibisu, I really hate it when you talk sense."
