Style : freestyle, underlying guitar and drums for beats

Phayu knew very well that until Rain was comfortable, he couldn't take him for dates in public. He respected Rain enough that he wouldn't jeopardise his safety and security. So their first date was in the practice room itself. Phayu had asked for the room to be booked for a day and after their routines were done, Phayu pulled out a picnic basket and a cloth. "Since we can't do this in a park, let me add the ambience," he said, and put up the sounds of soft breeze and chirping birds. Rain giggled, his voice echoing prettily in the room. Phayu was thrilled to see Rain so happy. The two of them talked, as they shared a simple fare of sandwiches, orange juice and chips. Obviously all Rain's favourite things. They shared their childhood stories and their reasons for choosing to do what they were doing.

Phayu was especially fascinated by the fact that Rain was a final year student and this was his stepping stone to a full time job. "If they don't hire you, I will," Phayu said, steadfast. Rain laughed. "I don't think that would be an issue anymore Phi. Since I have started training you, the staff loves me. Apparently, I have taken a terrifying soul away and given them peace," he said. "I am not that bad," Phayu said, sounding despondent. "Well, that's exactly what I told them. And they looked at me as if I was insane. What did you do those poor creatures Phi?" Rain asked. "I didn't do anything. I am good boy," Phayu said, pouting. Rain shook his head. "Do you miss your family Phi?" he asked, changing the topic.

"Not really. Fah is the only family I have left, and Pai too. Our parents passed just couple of months before my debut," Phayu said, shocking Rain. "Oh my God Phi! How did you get through that?" he asked, his eyes filling with tears. Phayu looked at his boy. Whenever he told people about his parents, the first thing people would say would be on the lines of how terrible it was that they missed Phayu's debut. But Rain's first question had been about his well-being. He was sorry that Phayu lost his parents, but he was more sorry that Phayu had suffered. He leaned forward and brushed his thumbs under Rain's eyes. "Don't cry sweet boy. It was hard, I won't lie. But I knew that I had to do whatever it takes and stay strong. Plus, the fact that I was about to debut gave Fah also a chance to forget things, made it easier for us to.. well, not exactly move on? But it was like, we had something else to focus on," he said.

"I can imagine Phi. I mean, we are never old enough to lose our parents I feel. I am 22, but I think I would be lost if something happened to my Phaw or Mae. So I am really grateful that you were able to get through it," Rain said. Phayu smiled. "And now I have you too," he said. Rain blushed. "Phiiiii!" he said, hiding his face behind his hands. Phayu laughed. "You do realise that you are too cute for your own good, right?" he asked, lying to his side and staring up at Rain. Rain shook his head. "And you do realise that you are too much Phi, right?" he asked, hugging his knees close to his chest. Phayu laughed again. "Rain, can we have our next date at my house?" he asked. Rain looked at him, a bit shocked. "But Phi, won't that be a problem?" he asked, worried about what the repercussions could be. "Nope. Since you are my personal choreographer, it's completely okay for you to help me practice at my home studio," Phayu said, smirking. "Okay, in that case, I am fine with that," Rain said.

Phayu and Rain continued to meet up. Phayu was extremely careful, yet obsessive in his pursuit of Rain, knowing that for him, Rain was the person he wanted to spend his life with. He just needed to find a way to make that happen. But he was not worried. About a month after he had started to woo him, Rain agreed to be his boyfriend, his only stipulation being that, for now, except for Sky, Pai and Fah, no one should know that they were dating. While Phayu was reluctant, he understood Rain, understood where he was coming from. His boy was more concerned about Phayu than himself, and Phayu couldn't help but appreciate that.

"Hey baby," Phayu said, as soon as Rain walked into the practice room. "Morning Phi. Did you sleep well?" Rain asked, giving his man a hug. "Nope. Phi missed you," Phayu said, pouting. Rain brushed his lips across Phayu's and smiled. "We were apart for just literally 8 hours Phi," he said, stepping back and going to set the music. "That's still 8 hours too long," Phayu whined. Rain shook his head. His man was next level clingy, and while Rain did complain sometimes, he would never have it any other way. "Phi, you need to work on the new album too," he said sternly. "Well, the next track is ready too," Phayu said, smiling happily. "Want to hear?" he asked. Rain nodded eagerly and they both sat down on the floor to listen to it. Phayu gave him the ear pods. It was a soft ballad, with gorgeous piano accompaniments, talking about true love and finding passion with your one, the one made for you. Rain was mesmerised, not just by the song, but also by the love he could see dripping from Phayu's eyes. He wanted to throw himself in Phayu's arms, but he knew that this was neither the place, nor the time. "Phi, can you take a break from your schedule this weekend?" he asked. Phayu nodded. "Of course. No activity is planned for this weekend, and I am completely free. Why though baby?" he asked. "Would you like to come to my hometown with me?" Rain asked. Phayu was stupefied. "Are you serious?" he asked. Rain nodded. "I want you to meet my parents. And even more important, I want to be with you freely. It's a very small town. No one would know us. And you can wear your mask too," he said. "YES! Absolutely yes! Tell me when we should leave?" Phayu said. "You can drive down with P'Fah and P'Pai, Sky and I are taking the early morning bus. You can join us at my family's resort later?" Rain asked. "Okay. When do we go?" Phayu asked, immediately standing up. Rain burst out laughing. "Friday morning Phi. There is enough time," he said, pulling Phayu back down.

"This place is gorgeous!" Pai said, as he got down from the car and stretched, breathing in the fresh air. Jomtien, around 3 kilometres away from the town of Pattaya, in the district of Chon Buri, was a beach locality where Rain's parents ran a beautiful resort. "And we could have been here yesterday had not my 'manager' had not decided to keep an event for me on Friday 'afternoon'!" Phayu said, glaring at Fah. "How did I know you had made plans with your boy? You are lucky those guys moved the event to Friday, and it was not today as scheduled earlier. And you were the one who wanted the third song to be recorded as soon as possible. The recording room was free only yesterday morning," Fah replied, not batting an eyelid. Pai snorted. Before the argument could get full blown, Rain came running out. "Hi Phii!" he said, throwing his hands around Phayu's neck and pecking his lips. "Hello? Excuse me?" Fah said. "We are air, air!" Pai said, turning his face away. Rain ignored everyone, pulling Phayu inside, leaving Fah and Pai to follow them. "Mae! Phaw!" he called out loudly, dragging Phayu further in. An older couple came out, smiling.

Phayu waiied immediately. "Swasdi Khap Khun," he said, smiling back. "Don't be silly lu! You are our baby's faen, of course you must call us Phaw and Mae," Rain's father said, hugging him. Phayu was shocked, both at the fact that Rain had told his parents about him and at the welcome he had received. Rain's mom hugged him as well. "Welcome to our place na lu!" she said. Then they both hugged Fah and Pai as well, making them feel just as welcome. "Come, come. Put your luggage inside and then you can have some lunch. There are many things to see around here," Rain's father said, ushering them all inside. The boys got their rooms, and then met Rain and his parents downstairs. "How can we help?" Phayu asked. "Don't worry lu! You boys just go and enjoy. We don't have too many guests this time of the year. And Sky will be by soon. Then you can go see our beautiful town," Rain's mom said, bustling around in the kitchen. "Please sit Phi," Rain said, just as Sky came rushing in.

The five of them left together, but soon Phayu and Rain separated. Sky smirked as he watched them leave and shook his head. "Well, since they are not going to be back any time soon, let me be your guide," he said, leading the two away. Rain and Phayu walked side by side, hands swinging, completely oblivious to the whole world. "Where are we going cute boy?" Phayu asked. "To a very special place, a place that belongs only to me.. well, me and Sky," Rain said. "What do you mean?" Phayu asked. "Well, as you know, this is a small community. People who are not 'normal' were not really treated well. It's different now, but it was not so snazzy then, so I needed an escape sometimes, and this was my place. No one knows about it, just Sky and I, who used to come here; sometimes to talk, sometimes we would do our homework here, sometimes just sleep. We even left some stuff here, so that we could come back whenever we wanted," Rain said.

He led Phayu to a shady alcove, hidden from prying eyes, almost like a cave but without the rocky base, although it did have a roof that looked like an extension of a cliff, that would keep it protected from the elements. Ferns hung down like a curtain, making it impossible for anyone to see it unless they knew it was actually there. Rain parted the green vines, and Phayu was surprised to see an almost home like set-up. He was impressed. "Wow! This looks so cozy," he said, sounding surprised. Then he looked at Rain. "So, why did my cute boy bring me here?" he asked, smirking.

"Well, I realised that we never get a chance to be alone. It's either the practice room, or your home, where your brothers are," Rain said, pulling Phayu down to sit on one of the mattresses kept there. He then slid into Phayu's lap. "I want to do so much more than our stolen kisses Phi, so much more. I know that you have had lovers before, but for me, you are my first. I want you to be my first. Will you?" he asked. Phayu just stared at him, unable to form a single word. His whole world had simply narrowed down to that one person and that one moment and that one question. "Rain," he finally whispered, his voice sounding foreign to even himself. "Are you sure baby?" "Like I have not been sure of anything else," Rain whispered back, a scant second before slotting his lips against Phayu's.

The kiss was soft, a kiss that spoke of love, deep passion and complete devotion. Rain sighed, and Phayu slipped his tongue into his boy's mouth, slowly exploring every part. Rain moved impossibly closer, wanting to fuse himself to the man who had stolen his heart and soul. Phayu pulled away, shifting so that Rain lay under him. He looked into Rain's eyes, wanting to see if he would find anything that felt like a 'no', but the love and trust in them was his undoing. He put his forehead on Rain's. "I want to baby, but I am not pre..," he began, but Rain pulled him closer. "Everything you would need is here Phi," he said, pointing towards a bag that was kept nearby. Phayu opened it and was stuck between groaning and laughing. The bag contained lube, condoms and even painkillers. He shook his head. "When did you prepare this?" he asked. "The day I asked you to come to Pattaya," Rain said, grinning. "Cunning boy," Phayu said, and bent his head down and kissed Rain, the kiss turning sultrier as he sucked Rain's tongue, making the younger boy moan in delight!

Phayu went on his knees beside Rain, removing his t-shirt, and lifted Rain's torso to do the same to him. As the boy lay back, Phayu raked his eyes down his chest, nearly licking his lips at the sight in front of him. He had known that Rain had a good body, being a dancer, but seeing it this way, laid out like a feast in front of him, triggered something else inside him., something primitive, some kind of primal beat that hungered in his very soul. He trailed his fingers down Rain's chest, noting how his breathing deepened, his eyes closed in bliss and hands fisted to the side. Phayu replaced his fingers with his mouth, placing small butterfly kisses all over his lover, enjoying Rain's tremors. It was like feeling the vibrations of your hand on a really loud speaker. Phayu was mesmerised. Rain was like a culminations of all his dreams come true; a sweet lover, who gave in with his everything.

Phayu placed a soft kiss on Rain's right nipple, then gave it a small lick. Rain mewled and bowed up. Phayu was shocked, but entranced. Just this much, and Rain was so sensitive. Phayu repeated the action on the other nipple. "Phii! Please!" he cried out. "What do you want Rain?" Phayu asked. "I want you Phi, only you. I want you to touch me where no one has, fill me up the way no one has," Rain said. With those words, something snapped inside Phayu as he slid his body over Rain's and covered it completely. Their kisses deepened and Rain's hand fisted in Phayu's hair as he pulled him closer. Phayu moved lower, kissing and sucking all over Rain's body, leaving deep marks, his marks, and tugging at the dreamcatcher in his navel piercing. Rain's moans were like a symphony in his ears, his cock hardening even more, until he couldn't even breathe.

He shifted again, pulling Rain's lowers down and away, and doing the same to himself, freeing his own cock. He pulled the lube to himself, and split Rain's legs open. He poured a generous amount of it on his fingers, and inserted one into Rain's hole. As he waited for Rain to adjust to him, Phayu licked and sucked down Rain's thighs, using one hand to lift them up one by one. When he felt Rain relax, he added another finger. Rain's deep moan made it very clear that Phayu had hit his prostrate, so he did it again, brushed that fleshy portion that would make Rain scream again. He finally inserted a third finger, making Rain bow up in pleasure. He whined when Phayu removed his fingers, but Phayu quickly soothed him before tearing open a condom and rolling it down on himself and covering it with lube.

"It will hurt a bit baby, okay? When that happens, I want you to scratch me, okay?" Phayu asked. Rain nodded, tears leaking, making grabby hands towards Phayu, and who was he to say no? Phayu slowly entered Rain, who moaned, pain lacing his voice. "Do you want me to stop?" Phayu asked, knowing that he would, if Rain asked. But Rain shook his head, instead pulling Phayu closer. Phayu was embedded completely inside by the sudden movement and Rain raised his hips, making Phayu bottom out. He stilled, scared he had hurt his boy, but Rain rocked his hips. "Please Phi! Move please!" he said, and Phayu did exactly that. He moved in and out of Rain, light thrusts at first, then going in harder and faster, as Rain dug his hands into Phayu's shoulders, trying to find purchase, but when he couldn't, he just clutched the mattress, allowing Phayu to do what he wanted. Just as he was about to come, Phayu pulled out, and Rain bucked. Phayu simply turned him around, kissing his tattoo, before lifting Rain's ass towards him, then realised something. He tore open another condom from the pack Rain had bought and rolled it on him, knowing that no one would appreciate a dirty mattress in the future. Phayu thrust into Rain again, hitting his prostrate at every movement. He could feel Rain tightening around him and knowing he was close as well, Phayu increased his pace. Rain came first, with a shout, triggering Phayu's orgasm as well, as his hole tightened around Phayu's cock, milking it completely!

The sky cracks open, the winds roar loud,
But here we are, steady somehow.
Your hand in mine, we're anchored, unbroken,
Words unspoken, but hearts wide open.

I've seen the storm in your restless eyes,
But love's a shelter where no fear lies.
And when the clouds cry, they're washing away—
Where there's a storm, there's always rain.

Where the storm brings the rain, love will grow,
Through the chaos, through the cold, we'll know.
Every drop's a promise, every flood's a flame,
We're alive in the storm, we're alive in the rain.
Baby, hold me close, let's dance through the pain,
Where the storm brings the rain.

I've been the thunder, you've been my calm,
When I've lost my way, you've been my song.
You've seen my cracks, my jagged seams,
But you're the light in my wildest dreams.

Let the world spin wild, let the tempest rise,
We've found our truth under stormy skies.
Love's not afraid of a little strain—
Where there's a storm, there's always rain.

Where the storm brings the rain, love will grow,
Through the chaos, through the cold, we'll know.
Every drop's a promise, every flood's a flame,
We're alive in the storm, we're alive in the rain.
Baby, hold me close, let's dance through the pain,
Where the storm brings the rain.

Rain falls harder, but we stand strong,
This love's the rhythm to life's wild song.
The lightning strikes, but it can't tear apart
What we've built, heart to heart.

So let it pour, let it rage, let the heavens cry,
We'll find the sun in each other's eyes.
Together we bloom, through joy, through strain—
Where the storm brings the rain.

Where the storm brings the rain, love will grow,
Through the chaos, through the cold, we'll know.
Every drop's a promise, every flood's a flame,
We're alive in the storm, we're alive in the rain.
Baby, hold me close, let's dance through the pain,
Where the storm brings the rain.

When the skies clear and the storm fades away,
We'll still be here, come what may.
'Cause where there's a storm, there's always rain,
And with you, my love, I'll dance again.
