The weather was comfortable. Take a deep breath and you'd feel like you've just gained the energy to work whole day long. Tay and New were back on the balcony of the office, enjoying the weather and the beautiful sunset, along with their regular coffee.

But this time, they're actually happy and no one was pretending. They're enjoying life, they're enjoying the mesmerising beauty of nature. New was the happiest he could be, he's just there chilling with his dear lover.

New took a loud deep breath, causing Tay to notice him. "What happened?" Tay asked.

"I'm just preparing myself for something," New replied, looking at Tay with the biggest smile and the most relaxed, stress less expression he's seen on New's face. That's when Tay realised how cute his lover actually is.

Tay smiled back, "What is it?" He asked and touched New's arm.

"A new life," New replied, looking at the bare dark sky after the sunset.

A smile of confusion was seen on Tay's face. "You mean?" New remained silent, still staring at the moon. Tay's face turned pale when he thought about what a new life could possibly mean. "Are you gonna leave me?" He pouted.

"No, you silly. I meant building a new life... with you." New touched Tay's cheek and winked at him.

Tay giggled at the touch, being as childish as ever. New looked away and smiled. He didn't mind him being childish at all. After all, this is the Tay he fell in love with.

"I've made some decision that seek courage... about us," New said, still caressing his cheek.

Tay grabbed New's elbow slightly as he asked, "What is it?"

"You'll see," New replied, leaving Tay hanging, confused and excited.

"Tomorrow is the weekend, right? Come stay at my house. I have a surprise for you," New suddenly spoke up, slightly scaring Tay.

"What surprise?"

"If I tell you, it wouldn't be a surprise, would it?" New answered and went back in front of his computer, working on his design, slowly and taking his time.

Tay walked up to him, "My baby is so considerate," he said in his baby voice, giving New chills all over his body by acting childish as always cause he knew that New liked it.

New felt butterflies in his stomach, he smiled at Tay and got back to his work.

New's POV:

It's the weekend. Tay is supposed to come over in the afternoon. I've decorated the house beautifully and set up a table by the pool for dinner night.

I know it's not our anniversary nor is it his birthday but I want to surprise him, specially after everything he's gone through and everything he's helped me go through. I just don't want him to feel deprived of love, just because all his family members left him alone.

Plus the weather, the atmosphere, the tension, my house everything was just perfect for a romantic night together. The wind was soft and refreshing, the house was glowing in the moonlight.

I wanted to thank him for everything he's done for me. Going from slight rivalry to lovers, we'd come a long way. *the doorbell rings*

I guess my prince has arrived. Let me go open the door. I went up to the door and opened it, immediately putting my hands on his eyes. "Slowly walk inside," I said.

I took him inside and removed my hands from his eyes. Once he saw everything I prepared, his jaw dropped.

* * * * *

Tay was speechless after seeing how much his love has done for him. The whole pool area and even the house was covered with beautiful dim lights and there were a few balloons here and there. There were rose petals in the way, slowly following to the pool. A small table was set beside the pool while there were a few goldfishes in the pool that he could enjoy.

Nobody had done this much for Tay before and by the looks of it, he knew how much time and effort it took for New to arrange this.

"What? Say something, Tay. Do you know how much effort it took me to finish all this. I'm literally drained. Let's eat or..." Before New could finish his sentence, Tay smashed his lips onto his, landing a tender, happy kiss.

Once he stopped kissing, he hugged New tightly with a wide smile on his face. "Thank you so much, New. I love you."

New's cheeks gained colour. He smiled. "Let's go eat now or the food will get cold."

Once they finished eating, New went to his room and even brought out a rose. That was one of the best time Tay had. He never knew how romantic New could actually be.

They spent the night watching movies and playing games together and just having a hot time together. The next day was the usual weekday and they came to office together. In fact, Tay was wearing New's clothes which were pretty loose for him.

When they arrived in the office from the same car, wearing almost identical clothes, the employees gave them weird looks. The HR, P'Nian came up to them and asked Tay, "Boss, where were you last night?"

Tay gulped. "Why do you want to know?"

P'Nian slightly smiled and pointed to his neck, "There's something on your neck." Tay's eyes widened when he put his hand over his neck and felt a big hickey there. He looked at New with the side of his eyes, who was trying his best to hold his laughter.

"Tell them," New whispered in Tay's ear.

Tay gulped again. "Umm... I was home. This is... just a mosquito bite."

P'Nian shook her head playfully, and smiled. "Mosquito bite, huh?"

"And why are you wearing New's clothes?" She asked again.

Tay again looked at New who now had a hand on his mouth, not able to hold his laughter at all.

"What's with you and New, boss?" She raised her eyebrow.

"What? We're just friends... I mean, colleagues," Tay answered and hearing his answer, New couldn't hold in no more. He laughed out loud onto their faces.

"Why are you laughing? Or do you mind answering?" P'Ice asked from the back who was watching the situation from afar.

New smiled and held Tay's hand, "We're dating." Everyone got shocked hearing his answer including Tay. Tay tried to hide it because he thought New wasn't ready to make it public. So he really was surprised when New announced it himself.

"But..." Tim tried to speak up but was interrupted by New.

"There's no buts. I know we're client and CEO. We're supposed to be colleagues but I believe love Is love. You can't really control who you fall in love with. Love is not a sin."

Tay was still surprised by his words. His mouth was slightly opened the whole time from the shock.

"Well, congrats. We wish you a long lasting relationship." P'Nian was the oldest among all the employees so getting a blessing from him was a big deal for them.

Tay quickly grabbed New's hand and dragged him to his office, a wide smile covering his whole face.

"New, is this the decision you said you'd make about us?" He asked. "You just made our relationship public."

"Umm... yes?" New smirked, returning the thoughtful smile of Tay.

"I love you so much! I really do," Tay replied, acting like a child, giving little smooches on New's neck.

"Hmm... I love you too."

"Stop now." New tried to push him away but he took his hand and kissed it.

"You called this yourself." He kept kissing him and New didn't stop it anymore.

"Tay, we're in your office." He slightly whined as Tay proceeded to eat him up. Tay again grabbed him by his hand to his office bathroom which was very spacious and locked the door.

"Don't worry. This is soundproof." He smirked, causing a giggle out of New.

"Okay."

The End.
