-Kit-
"Why are you asking this all of a sudden?!" I growled.
Beam asked me this first and now Pha? What the fuck is wrong with everyone?
"I'm just wondering." Pha replied calmly.
"No, I don't. I'm not gay."
"Kit. Love has nothing to do with gender."
Why is he telling me this?
"Stop being so cheesy."
"I'm not."
"Then stop talking about love."
"Kit."
"What?!" I was getting exasperated now.
"How do you know what it feels like to fall in love if you've never fallen in love before?"
I was dumbfounded. I didn't know how to answer.
"Yes, you might have been attracted to different people before, but you don't know how it feels to fall for someone, right?" He continued.
"Don't assume things."
"I'm not assuming. I know you too well."
"But, even if I fell in love, it wouldn't be Ming!" I shouted.
"Why not?"
"Just because!"
"Kit, calm down first and stop yelling. People might hear you."
I was out of breath by now. I didn't even realize that I was yelling. I instantly quieted down.
"You keep getting on my nerves." I finally said in a normal tone.
"I'm trying to help you."
"Okay, but stop assuming that I like Ming because I don't."
"Then can you at least tell me why you looked so.. flushed?"
"I wasn't flushed."
"Yes, you were."
"I wasn't."
"You were."
"Pha." I growled in irritation.
Pha sighed heavily, "Okay, I won't press you anymore, but I want you to give it some thought."
Ugh, finally.
He got up and I watched him walk towards my door.
"Oh, and Kit?" He spoke up.
"What?"
"Once you think about it, I'll be happy to support you."
"Fuck off." I groaned, running my hands through my hair and falling back on the bed.
I heard him chuckle before finally closing the door. I stayed motionless in the bed as I just stared up at the ceiling. Then, I finally got up with a sigh.
Laying here like an idiot is going to get me to nowhere. I should go downstairs and check out the preparations for the event.
It wasn't afternoon yet, but I didn't really care. I grabbed my phone and keys and headed out. Going down to the lobby, I could see that there were more people than yesterday. It seemed as if more and more people came everyday.
I headed outside and was instantly shocked by the huge amount of people that were scattered around. Some of them were hanging out decorations, some of them were setting out tables, and some of them were wearing idiotic looking costumes.
I snickered as a giant hotdog walked past me.
"Oh god, this is ridiculous." I muttered to myself.
However, I was still impressed by how far the university went this year.
"Oh hey? Kit right?" A voice interrupted my thoughts.
I looked towards the source of the voice to see a familiar tall man. It was Forth. Instead of the casual outfit he was wearing last time, he had a hazer outfit right now instead.
"Oh hello, Forth." I replied as we shook hands.
"Coming here to sign up?"
"Hm.. I don't know."
I still wasn't sure if I wanted to compete in anything yet.
"Well, once you make up your mind, just go over to that girl." He pointed at a stall that wasn't too far away.
"Okay, thanks."
"No problem."
"The campus really overdid it this time haven't they?" I questioned.
"Yep," He nodded, "Students complained that they wanted more excitement."
"Wow."
Too much excitement gave me anxiety.
"They're also planning a firework show tonight."
"Hm, okay."
"Oh yes, I have a question."
"What is it?" I looked up at him.
"Have you seen Beam?"
"Beam?"
"Yep."
"The last time I saw him was at breakfast."
"Oh."
"Haven't you spoken to him since that last time I saw you?"
"I have. But he doesn't seem to understand." He sighed.
"Understand what?"
He paused for a bit, "You can ask him about it."
"Uh, alright." I replied.
"P'Forth!" A girl ran over to him, breathing vigorously.
"Yes?" He looked at her.
"We need you to come and check on something." She huffed out.
"Oh okay. It was seeing you, Kit." He looked back at me. I nodded as he turned around and rushed after her.
I walked around a little bit, looking around at the different setups. I finally decided that I should sign up.
I was already here anyway so why not?
I proceeded to approach the stall that Forth showed me.
"Sawadee kha." The girl smiled.
"Sawadee." I greeted her bluntly.
"Signing up?" She asked.
"Yes."
"Okay, can you fill out this form?" She handed me a paper and a pen.
I leaned down to fill out the form quickly. Then, I handed it back to her.
"Thank you. Can I have your student id?" She looked up at me.
"My id?"
"Yep."
I felt my pockets.
Shit. I didn't bring my wallet.
"I left my id in the hotel. I'll go and fetch it really quickly." I said, giving her a quick nod.
"Okay, sure."
I quickly turned around and began to make my way back to the hotel. As I entered the lobby, it took me two fucking minutes just to get to the elevators. Trust me, it was that crowded.
I finally got in and went back to my room. Then, I searched through my bag for my wallet. I found it and shoved it into my pocket. As I was leaving my room, a voice made me stop.
"..P'Kit."
Fuck. Please let it not be Ming.
I turned around.
And of course it was Ming.
He was wearing a pair of shorts and a tank top.
"Ming," I spat out, "Why are you out here?"
"I'm participating in the races, did you forget about that P'?"
Oh right.
I said nothing as we walked back to the elevators. I pressed the button and we both waited in awkward silence.
"You're participating too?" He finally asked.
"Oh. Um. Yes." I replied.
I didn't dare look at him. Not even a single glance.
Thankfully, the elevator finally arrived. But as the doors opened, I was dismayed to see that it was packed with people.
"Come in." A man gestured us to enter.
"There doesn't seem to be space." I rolled my eyes.
"It's going to be a while until you find another one then." The man replied.
Ugh.
"Let's just go in, P." Ming said, as he stepped in beside me.
I have no other choice, do I?
I let out a sigh as we both stepped into the crowded elevator. When the door closed, the limited available space seemed to completely vanish.
"Ming!" I growled. His back was pushing against my face and it was suffocating me.
"Shit. Sorry P'Kit." He turned around to face me.
Shit! That was even worse. I was now facing his chest.
At that moment, the elevator stopped on another floor and someone got in. Of course, that meant that Ming was pressed up even closer to me. He had placed both his arms, one on either each side of me, to support himself.
"Mingkwan! Back the fuck off!" I snarled, as I felt his lower body brush against mine.
"I'm trying P', but there's no space."
I looked up to scold him but froze instantly. He was looking down at me. I felt everything get blurry. The only thing I could focus on right now were his dark brown eyes that were staring deeply into mine. Those same eyes that get me hopelessly mesmerized.
Holy fuck..
"Sorry.." He whispered. His arms basically locked me in this position. I couldn't move even if I tried.
He was really close. Really, really close. My face was inches away from his neck.
I couldn't even say anything. I suddenly felt heat rush through my body. It started from my neck and traveled all the way down. It was electrifying and it was moving fast.
Then, I realised..
Shit.
No way.
No fucking way.
I tore my gaze away from him and tried to glance down. It was a struggle for me to see, due to the tight space, but I was finally able to confirm what I felt. My eyes widened in horror and fear.
No.
No.
No.
.. I had a fucking erection.
