As soon as their feet touched the land , eight students flanked them two each on each side and two each on front and back.

" P'Tum thinks it's better if agri students try to attack " Kong informed. Arthit nodded, a quick scan of the parking told him, he was the object of today's amusement , equally for the engineering and agri students gathered there, red and green domineered the space with dots of blue from mass communication department scattered along with grays from sports and whites from medical.

" Slut " someone spit and before Arthit could turn his head to spot the owner of the voice, some one gurgled.

He spotted their senior, P'Chai dragging a student he didn't know, out by elbow.

Kong Intertwined his fingers with Arthit
" Yes he is a Slut , " Kong said loudly, P'chai halted and the rising commotion too " Yes, he is a SLUT - Some one Laudable with Unique Talents. " Kong leveled him with a death stare " And you are a slut too - a Sanctimonious Lecher and Unequivocally a Tyrant ."

" And I believe anyone will choose being his kind of slut rather than yours" Phana's loud voice boomed over the audience.
" Atleast I will. " Phana smiled and most of the red jackets in the audience hollered, whistling , yelling their agreement of " Me too."

The Agricultural students along with the perpetrator student glared at Phana, red till the neck.

Arthit just stared ahead, putting one feet after another on the path cleared before him, biting his cheek inside his mouth, he searched for deepest blank corner of his mind and tucked himself there. Turning his selective hearing on, he kept walking. When he could just process everything around him as intelligible white noise, only then he felt safe.

Kong saw the blank look in Arthit's eyes, his relaxed shoulders, eyes monotonely focused at the road as if counting the steps, he took out his headphones and handed to Arthit who shook his head at the offer.

Seeing Kongpob's worried gaze from the corner of his eyes , he mumbled without looking at Kong. " I remember, I have your shoulder....partner . " Kong nodded, shoulder tight as bow.

" Arthit " Phana who was flanking him on right, spoke " In fifteen minutes, there is an informal meeting over tea and refreshment . All the guardians of the accused students will be present and also the administrative representative from our college. P'Off had asked to join as representative from alumni but I have held him back for now. If we could reach a decision unofficially it will be better. "

Arthit nodded.

" Am I barred there ? " (Kong asked. )

" Not if you help with the refreshments and drinks. " Phana winked and Kong grinned.

" Remember, you will stand down " Arthit glared at Kong, scared seeing Kongpob's enthusiasm.

Kong nodded. " I will not make you more worried. "

" I don't want to be third wheel but I must interfere " Phana interjected " Tum is receiving guests and keeping agri representative under check at this moment so I am left with responsibility of preparing you for pissing contest that's about to happen in there. "

Arthit turned his attention to Phana, Kongpob's hold on his hand was a steady anchor keeping him grounded, helping drown the rustling and bustling of students around them.

" Teenathats are furious because people have started sniffing about your past with their eldest, Rattankosin is raging because of ill impact on his election campaign , Jarujis and Suppapols along with Nirans are at different stages of being mad, it's a total hot pot in there. You must be calm, assertive and undisturbed in there while saying your piece . "

"Tell them, I am withdrawing my complaint." Arthit replied.

" What ? " Phana's eyes bulged " You can't be serious right ? Did you recirve threats ? We can complain to police- "

" No, it's my decision. "

" Arthit ," Phana caught his elbow, making them both halt " You are joking right ? "

Arthit didn't reply in words, he held phana's stare for few seconds to let Phana glance at steele of his decision.

"you can't do this." Phana rebuked.

" Its no use - " Arthit's reasoning was cut off by Kongpob " He can taje his complaint back Phi and he is going to. It's his life and if he doesn't want to complaint then it's in his right to take it back."

" Kongpob, the backlash of students -"

" We will deal with it when it comes. "

" But - " Their conversation was cut off by arrival of Dean's secretary, Khun Napat. The middle aged man with thick black rimmed glasses nodded at them solemnly

" Khun Roajanapat is here already ? " he didn't pause for them to reply " Good...good. All the required parties have arrived already, three of you head to the the conference room quickly. "

Phana nodded, he took Arthit through chain of shortcuts of corridors after corridors.

.........

Before they would take the step in the conference hall , Kong squeezed Arthit's hand tightly , making Arthit halt .
" Remember three taps on the wrist or a missed call. "

Arthit nodded. " same"

" We have got this " Kong again squeezed his hand, gently this time, assuringly.

Have we? Arthit wanted to ask but just nodded. His confidence was already six feet under the ground he didn't want to drown Kong's hopes too.

He raised his lashes, taking a quick scan of the room. Six tables were arranged in circular fashion, housing around twenty to twenty five people.

Arthit could recognize their chancellor and Dean's of both the departmemts at one of the ends, Registrar sat to his left and Prof. Danai - head of antiragging committee to his right, Khun Rattanakosin sat on the other end flanked by Mr. and Mrs. Teenathat on one side and Kongpob's grandfather and father on other, a kind looking lady whose facial features resembled Aim a lot. There were more people Arthit didn't recognize - perhaps the board members or other officials.

Seeing every eye boring in to him, he lowered his gaze. There was nothing to worry, he will just take back his complaint and everything will be alright again. These people won't bother breaking him again if he was already groveling at their feet .
Arthit clenched his teeth- 'suck it up he told himself. This will pass quickly.

Kongpob's palm on his back was a constant burning print, preventing him from toppling in the nightmares that encounter with Mrs. Teenathat will definitely dig out.

Arthit sat in the seats kept vacant for them, in exact centre, equidistant from both college officials and Teenathats. He was thankful for Kong and phana sitting on either side of him, preventing his direct contact from anyone he didn't regard directly.

.....

After a light breakfast and tea/coffee was served, the chancellor stood up, his gold rimmed glass sitting low over his neck, his small beady eyes stared directly at Arthit

" Welcome, although I would have liked to welcome you all under much better circumstances, let us comfort ourselves with the thought that we have assembled here to make it better, right the wrongs that have been done if any. Before discussing the matter under legal scrutiny, I would like us to try if we can reach a decision since the situation and the matter both are too delicate to let it be exposed to student politics or left undecided for too long."

Most of the assembled people, even Khun Rattanakosin nodded their heads.

The chancellor continued " Student grievance cell has brought to our notice that one of our student from engineering department has faced bullying and molestation of both verbal and physical manner from a group of six students, all of them being second year and belonging to agricultural department except Time Teenathat who is a third business student.

On the other hand, the said group of students are saying that they have been invited by Arthit Rojanapat to spend and I quote ' some quality time for thirty thousand Baht each. ' They had paid in full, in advance too, but on arrival, Arthit Rojanapat refused to fulfill his side of bargain. That made them angry and that resulted in to the heated verbal exchange and attempted fist fight. -"

Arthit's teeth clenched shut, jaw grinding until it was painful . The slut accusation again..

He remembered what his mother used to say -When ugly truth stays silent, beautiful lie roars .

"That's not true-" Kong shouted in indignation. Arthit dug his nails on back of Kongpob's hand. "You promised " he whispered and Kong shut his mouth abruptly.

" Sorry for the interruption sir. " Phana intervened " Do continue " .

"I am just presenting the description of events from both sides gentlemen. No need to direct your ire at me. " The Chancellor narrowed his eyes at Kongpob " Anyways, as I was saying, although they couldn't be present here due to the serious injuries sustained while ambushed by some second and third years of engineering department, they feel deeply ashamed of their behaviour and are ready to pledge to never involve in illegal or immoral activities or any kind of bullying no matter the provocations.

Mistakes and faulty judgements happen, they are a part of our life experience. They are ready to accept and apologize for their mistakes.
I expect same from other parties involved to have the same grace and integrity. "

The Chancellor sat down.

Khun Rattanakosin spoke "I would have liked to make my offer sans witnesses but it is the demand of the time and situation that I do this in public. Instead of judging one other, we should search and uproot the root cause of the problem.
After giving much thought, it had come to my notice that Nong Arthit's scholarship does not cover his dorm and canteen expenses, that might be the root cause behind his perusal of unconventional and oftentimes unacceptable income sources.
And that is why I have decided to sponsor his education. I am sure he wouldn't have any objection to accepting my well meant gesture. "

"Nong Arthit " Proff Danai urged. " What do you think about this. "

Arthit stood up, Kongpob's fingers clutching his thigh just above his knee, under the table was burning like a brand.

" With all due respect to all the present dignitaries , I would like to say that I would like to take my complaint back. It was just a misunderstanding , I never thought it would escalate to this level , filing the complaint was severe lack in my judgment. I apologize for the inconvenience that my faulty decision caused you all. " Arthit bowed " I am sorry " standing up , he eyed the dean. " I am thankful for the college administration for not revoking my admission and also for being generous enough for still allowing my scholarship to continue. Thank you. "

Arthit sat down, broken shards of his self respect embedded deep in his heart . He could feel sadness and discontent radiating from Kongpob in waves.

" Its okay Nong Arthit" Khun Teenathat seemingly smiled in what he thought was a show of understanding " Everybody make mistake, no one will hold it against you especially considering your upbringing. Lacking the moral education in younger years does that to anyone. It is important that you realized your mistake in time.."

Arthit hung his head less as an appropriate response and more to hide the rage bubbling underneath his skin. He never thought it would be this hard to bow his head in the feet of treachery.

" Isn't it enough that he took the complaint back ?" Phana hissed.

" Considering your age and elite education, I don't think I should remind you that everyone has a side in their past they wouldn't want anyone to know about, Khun Teenathat " a lady Arthit didn't know spoke. " I would refrain to nitpick if I were you."

" Indeed " Mrs. Teenath stretched her lips in a mocking smile " Khun Rojanapat " she sneered " but isn't it our collective responsibility to stop them for repeating mistakes of past ? What my husband meant to say is , we too would like to pay a monthly sum to Arthit if he promises to stop enticing young generations like he did to our sons and other impressionable young men from his department. "

" He did not do such a thing " Proffessor Danai spoke up.." Mind you Khun Teenathat, it was an accusation your son's laid against Arthit Rojanapat . There is no proof that he called them. But there is a proof that your children assaulted him. "

" After knowing his background are you still surprised that he is capable of doing such things. ? "Mrs Teenathat sneered.
" Did he tell you why he was thrown out of his last school ? "

" His mother was a prostitute Khun Danai. I say that's the reason enough. Apple doesn't fall far from Tree " Khun Jaruji who was silent till now spoke..

" I would have voted for his rustication if we weren't in this mess. " Suppapol spoke up."

" Khun Suppapol - " Proff. Danai interrupted.

" can you even ignore that the moment khun Rattanakosin mentioned full sponsorship, he backtracked ? Can you slide it that he is ready to bend on his back literally and metaphorically for money ? "

Arthit was listening to every word, sharp as spear - slicing straight in to his heart. He kept reminding himself if he has to be an engineer he must endure it. The taunts , the barbs everything..

" Don't listen to them. " Kongpob whispered in his ear.." Let's go. I will even take you to your village. Like you say, Fuck them all. But not literally... I hate imagining you fucking anyone else. Only me. Ugh... I want to break my glasses on their head. Would you like that ? I am bad for liking the idea isn't it? "

Arthit just stared at him blankly...
A man he didn't know was saying' His mother was a prostitute. Apple doesn't fall far from the tree Khun Danai. "

" Arthit " Kongpob Intertwined his fingers with Arthit's and stood up. "Don't listen to them. You are a human and your past doesn't define you. Let's go."

Arthit exhaled. There was a chaos outside. Everyone was sharing his one cent about Arthit's past and his mother's profession.
There were all kinds of arguments being thrown- good , bad and worst and him sealing his lips and bowing his head won't stop their mouths. It was only weakening the people who were fighting for him without his support..

When ugly truth stays silent, beautiful lie roars. His mother's voice whispered again.

This was his reality. No matter how far he will go in life , the shady lanes of his origin will chase him until he faces them..head on ... Even if he becomes an engineer, there will be people telling him he slept his way through the college. Or perhaps through his promotions if he manages to bag an engineering degree.

" Come on. " Kongpob pulled at his hand. Arthit stood rooted to the spot.

" No.." Arthut spoke.." No ... " he repeated " I have nothing to hide. There is nothing unmentionable about my past. Nothing to hide, nothing to keep hush hush about.
Like everyone present here, I too came out of my mother's womb, not through a Satan's.
My mother was unfortunate that she did not have any other way of putting food infront of me, than selling her body and bit of her soul along with it. And I am not ashamed of it...
I am not ashamed that she did what she thought was best for me...
I am not ashamed of her or myself sane as you are not ashamed for visiting those lanes.

Of all the mothers present here, how many of you would not do everything in your capacity to keep your child alive and kicking ? "

All the hall was silent.

" Then how was my mother wrong for doing everything in her capacity?
If you are not ashamed of standing beside the husband, brother, son who had paid the prostitute , perhaps cheated on their significant others. I have nothing to be ashamed for being the son of the woman who just did her job.

I have enough of the so called elites sitting over my achievements and life just because you can't digest my past.
Who are you to judge my past ? " he shouted, fists clenched , shaking like a leaf " I have read your glorious auto bio-graphies. Khun Suppapol's family was a butcher , Jarujis clan fishermen , Suthilucks a cobbler and Nirans were barbers .
The mother you all are talking about taught me not to judge people by their clothes, past or profession and her teaching alone is stopping me from asking you this Mrs Teenathat - ' wasn't your mother a waitress ? Yet none of us are expecting you to wait upon us while we are having refreshments.
My prostitute mother was thousand times a better mother and person than all of you combined. She didnt chose to be a prostitute, she was forced but all if you are choosing bigotry and hippocampus.

She definitely wouldn't have arranged this farce while knowing a student was indeed repeatedly assaulted under her care " her glared at the dean with tearful eyes" She would have resigned before bending under force. "

He turned his gaze to Mrs Teenathat " She would have flayed her bully son alive rather than ruining other child's life..
Cancel my admission if you want. Do your worst... But I am not stopping before I get my rightful place in your world. "

" You can't go back on your words Nong Arthit "

" I never gave you my word Khun Rattanakosin.." Arthit retorted...

" Choose your battles wisely Nong " Khun Niran muttered.

Arthit just chuckled lifelessly " You are talking about battles..." he cackled "My life has been a war since the moment I was born Khun. And My mother never gave me any option other than to win- not when doctor declared me still born , not when you are plotting my murder ."

" As you know, the complaint is still on . The meeting failed. No need to waste more time. " Kongpob announced and dragged a trembling Arthit out of the meeting.

" My heart almost leapt out of my chest Arthit ! " Kongpob grinned. " You were fire, I wanted to kiss you so much... but my grandpa and father were there..."

" Kong .." Arthit heaved ". I challenged them. "

" Yeah ..." Kongpob nodded eagerly. " And you were blazing in there. "

" Kong, what am I going to do now? - "
And with those words Arthit fainted in Kongpob's arms who panicked the moment Arthit fell like a sacof potatoes

" Doctor - " Kong screamed.

.................

" We will not tolerate this behaviour Khun Danai " Jaruji seethe.

" Neither will we Khun. " Danai replied. " You are benefactors of our college " he stole a quick glance at eldest Suthiluck who encouraged him with barest nod " It does not mean you get to antagonize and shame a student of mine just to prove a point. "

" Our sons were innocent. That siren has seduced them earlier too..." Mrs. Teenathat screeched.

" With all due respect to every one present here " Phana had to shout to let his voice be audible over the chaos, he spoke as the chaos died down " As a president of student council and student representative , I would request you all not to slander Arthit or any of the student accused of bullying. Everyone is innocent until proved guilty.."

" I agree " Kongpob's grandpa raised his hand.

" As the chairman, I am moving the motion, this matter will be discussed when all the students involved will be present. Who agrees ? "

To Phana's surprise everyone raised their hands.

"This meeting is adjourned " he spoke " We will again meet next week when all involved with the case can be present with all the evidences and witnesses. " he spoke. " until then the said victim and the assaulted will be housed in well guarded guest suites in two building furthest from each other. No one, other than parents and the lawyer will be allowed to meet them.
For Arthit, college will pay for the therapist and lawyer . "

Phana shivered seeing Jaruji's glare and Mrs. Teenathat's cruel smile. How Kongpob didn't stagger was a mystery to him.

.............

Arthit opened his eyes to white ceiling. Wide in shock at the unfamiliar surroundings , his eyes whipped to the side - walls were white too with hints of Grey's and chocolate browns. He took in the fluffiness of pillows and softness of the mattress.
This was definitely not his room.

" You are in my room" came Kongpob's gentle reminder, anchoring him to sense of saftey.

" Papa had my changed for both our stay , it's the guest house, especially reserved for guest lecturers and other dignitaries college hosts throughout the year. " Seeing Arthit brow knitting in confusion, Kong explained. " It was board's decision Thit. I had to use all the tricks from threatening to being monk to puppy dog eyes to stay with you. I thought you wouldn't like being alone here. Aren't you happy ? " Kong asked , corners of his lips sagging " should I move back in my dorm room ? "

" No.." Arthit grabbed Kongpob's wrist tightly. " No." He repeated through parched throat .

He didn't know if it was knowledge or just a hunch on Kongpob's part but Kong gently smiled and unfurled Arthit's fingers " Let me pour water for you" he said.

Pouring a glass of water, Kong held it near Arthit's throat.

" You kniw our room is the most secured one in this building... we can directly access helipad from here and you know what.... you even have your own personal guards now. Don't frown at me like that ...it was board's decision too.."

" You are nervous " Arthit pointed out frowning. " Why ? "

" You need to stop fainting in my arms . I was worried " Arthit wanted to smooth out the creases from Kongpob's pinched face .

" I am sorry. " Arthit replied.

" No No..." Kong looked horrified " You don't need to apologize for your raised BP . You have no control over it Thit. I understand "

"Shh..." Arthit pressed his index finger over Kongpob's lips "I am apologizing for worrying you .. " Arthit replied.

Kongoob frowned but kept silent.

" What is it Suthiluck? "

Kong shook his head fast. " Nothing. "

" Lying isn't becoming on you Suthiluck" Arthit chided.

" No ..no. I wasn't lying to you. Never did. " Kong paused " I just... I mean "

" Spit it out ...no filters remember ? "

"Is it wrong that I got hard over you putting them in their places ? I didn't mean to-" he hung his head .

Arthit chuckled " Its a long battle Suthiluck, there will be many such instances where I will have to take strong ground. Get used to it. I don't want you to die of blue balls.. "

Kongpob's brows knit in confusion
" I checked Google when you said that last time . So much arousal will definitely be
excruciatingly painful but no one dies of blue balls " Kong replied

" . "

" What will I do with your literal brain Suthiluck? "

" Hug me ? " Kong asked. " You scared me a little ... not little...too much."

Arthit smiled opening his arms, Kong eagerly folded himself in Arthit's arm.

" Don't faint again" Kong murmured.

" Its out of my control Kong. "

" Then hug me every time you wake up ? ."

" How about I kiss you instead ? "

Kong grinned " That will be much better . "

Arthit smiled, cupping one of his hands at Kongpob's neck, he pulled the impossible man closer and covered his lips with his own.

Soft, sweet and pliable - he liked Kongpob's lips. Kong eagerly soaked in all the movements he made, like a sponge .

Urgency of his lips, short and long flicks of his tongue, sharp nip of his teeth- all he returned ten fold.

Arthit's grip on reality was lost for a second as Kong swiped his tongue across the roof of his mouth, caging his face between his arms, both his hands in Arthit's hairs, gripping and tugging the tresses while he gulped all that Arthit had to offer.
The honey of his touch, the salt of his tears tinged with the sourness of his insecurities and bitterness of his reality.
Kong wanted all and he drank it all.

Breathless, Kong broke the seal of their lips and caught a quick inhale. Panting, he stared in to Arthit's orbs

" No matter how close to me I pull you, never feels enough."

Arthit narrowed his eyes and scrunched his nose, doing the cute expression Kong both hated and loved .
" When you say things like this Suthiluck - it almost feels real"

" Because my dear Rojanapat"
Kongpob straddled him, each of his leg on either side of Arthit's waist, crotch of his uniform rubbing the front of his pajamas.
His brain faintly noticed that Kong has changed his clothes, perhaps seen the ugly bruises in the shades of red and yellow but it botherd him only a little as his diverted attention was instantly pulled back when Kongpob's fingers fisted in his hair and tugged them hard.
" It is real as much as this is . "

Kong licked a swipe against his favorite mole on Arthit's bottom lip and poked it with his tongue as if it will greet him back. Seeing Arthit parting his lips, Kong gently bit his bottom lip and soothed the sting with the tip of his tongue- once,twice , thrice..countless times until he was satisfied with the result.

When the lip was a bit swollen and the mole was clearly visible Kong grinned in satisfaction.

" I am not going to look stupid with fish lip alone Suthiluck. "
Arthit growled, he nipped Kongpob's bottom lip in retaliation.

" You don't look stupid. You look sexy and irresistible ." Kong replied bowing down to catch Arthit's lips again, Arthit stopped him by pressing his palm flat against Kongpob's chest..

" Doesn't change the fact that you give me a fish lip Suthiluck "

"I gave you a thoroughly kissed look which is both my right and duty as your boyfriend. " Kong grinned "Fish lip is just a very good byproduct."

" Boyfriend ? Since when are you my boyfriend? "

" Since I realized I want to be your boyfriend " Kong replied, expertly avoiding the confession.

" Is this supposed to be one sided decision ? "

" You can anytime be my boyfriend if you want partner. I have recognized the rules I want to act by. You can change your side of equation when you are ready. " Kong shrugged " No force. Offer is always open. "

Arthit grinned evilly " Agreed and accepted
freely partner. " he pulled Kongpob by his tie " Let me do my duty and give you fish lips too."

"But I don't have a lip mole-"
Rest of Kongpob's whining was swallowed by Arthit's mouth.

Kong Squirmed and ground his hips against Arthit's as Arthit took control of Kongpob's mouth and dominated his senses.

Arthit liked how he could make Kong melt in his arms.

The Suthiluck heir was equally a predator and play. He gave equally as he took.
His tongue stroked sensually against his own, his fingers roamed wild in Arthit's hairs as Arthit's fingers slid down Kongpob's nape, mapping the ridge of his spine.

It was a battle he would like to play for eternity. Give and take. Recive and return..
Especially when he had such an enticing creature in his arms, snaking a hand at Kongpob's waist, he pulled Kong closer.

Twin set of nipples poked through Kongpob's white shirt which was gradually and steadily becoming transparent with spots and streams of sweat drops. Arthit latched on to one with his teeth and Kong took a sharp breath in... elated Arthit continued his ministrations. He sucked the pebbling bud in warm cavity of his mouth and lapped at it with his tongue, poking and swiping at it.

Kong rewarded his efforts with his constant squirming, muscles of his stomach clenched while every nerve of his body lit on fire.

"I love when you let your real self show Thit. " Kong managed to whisper between pants as Arthit undid top three buttons of Kongpob's shirt and dipped his tongue between the dip in his collar bones.

"Keep talking " Arthit ordered. " How am I when I am me? " He gently scratched Kongpob's nipple with his nail while suckling at the other. Kong threw his head
back,releasing a throaty moan.
" Talk Sutthiluck " Arthiy growled , pinching Kongpob's nipple.
Kong arched his back, revealing smooth column of his neck that always called Arthit to paint them with his lips and teeth.

" You are just you - can't explain " Kong exhaled a heavy breath " seductive but innocent. Sexy yet classy. Sassy still kind. Ready to take control, beautiful when giving control .. can't explain... you are you and you make me go crazy "

His fingers raked on Kongpob's clothed back, nails yearning to dig in the smooth flesh. Arching his back in anticipation,Kong moaned -throaty, low and lovely.

Arthit bunched his fingers in Kongpob's shirt and yanked the tucked obstacle out of his way. His hands urgently dug under the hem of Kongpob's pants, his index finger crept in the cleft of Kongpob's buttocks while rest of his fingers grabbed Kongpob's ass, nails dug deep enough to incite just a sliver of pain while his index finger massaged the entrance, up and down in slow strokes.

Kongpob jerked, resulting in hips bumping in to Arthit's , a sweet current of pleasure shot down his spine as their members bumped .

Arthit snaked his other hands up Kongpob's back and on to the back of his head, fisting Kongpob's hairs, he tugged on it , exposing Kongpob's throat.

" I like you like this ..." Arthit growled , Kongpob's eyes bore in to his "real, wild and out of control "

Kongpob panted, fighting to have a modicum of control back but Arthit was having none of it. Snapping open Kong's belt he threw it in furthest corner of King size bed.

Pulling down Kongpob's zipper, Arthit dipped his hand right down the band of Kongpob's boxer . His fingers caressed the semi hard member which twitched at Arthit's touch..

" So eager " Arthit cooed " How long can you last Suthiluck ?" Arthit challenged, Kongpob's member hot and pulsating in his hand.

" Five at the moment? " Kongpob's uncertain voice fell on his ears.

" I say you won't last more than a minute.." Arthit smirked.
" Nothing less than three. " Kong retorted.

" You underestimate my skills Suthiluck ."
Arthit retorted " what if I make you come within a minute ? "

" What if you can't? And I last more than a minute? "

" I will be your slave for a day. "

" Don't like the idea. "

" What do you want then ? "

" How about You give serious thought to our relationship ? Couple relationship " Kong added for clarification.

" You ask for too much Suthiluck "

" What is the fun in playing for small reward when you and I , both deserve big things ? "

" Fine. And if I make you come within one minute, you will listen to one thing I say. No arguments. "

" what thing ? "

" Dunno... just promise. "

" okay. As long as it doesn't overrule your promise of not ignoring me. "

" deal. " Arthit smiled giving a quick peck.

Arthit ran his gaze along the room, especially at the night stand beside them...
He didn't find lube or Vaseline that he could use.

" How do you feel about dry handjob Kong ? "

" Duno what to feel. Never tried." Kong replied.

" Hmm.." Arthit hummed. He cupped Kongpob's balls , feeling the warm weight on his palm, his thumb caressed the creases . " wanna try something new? "

Kong nodded.

" Stand up "

Kong instantly stood up, Arthit scooted back until his back touched the head board.

He looked at Kongpob standing obediently, naked below the waist, awkwardly looking around, three undid buttons of his shirt offering a nice view of his chest with nipples still slicked with Arthit's saliva, his pant was bunched at his ankles.

"Come here " Arthit beckoned with his fingers and Kong walked towards him, his legs on either side of Arthit's body, his proud,semi erect dick swinging left and right .

Kong stopped, his member merely inches from Arthit's face.

" Put your palms flat against the wall." Kong did as told. Arthit wrapped fingers of both his hands at Kongpob's angles and raked his fingers upwards tracing Kongpob's calf and back of his thighs. Kong shivered, the feeling intensifying as Arthit's hands traced up and up and finally grabbed his ass, parting the twin globes to see the pulsating hole Arthit had many plans for.

" Nice view " Arthit teased fondling the balls white he greeted Kongpob's dick with a kitten lick at his head.Kongpob's thigh trembled just a little.

" All for you. Anytime you want " Kong replied, breathing a tad bit fast.

"Only for me. " Arthit nuzzled Kongpob's inner thigh. " say it , only for me Suthiluck.."

"Body and soul... only for you." Kong replied, his gaze searching for Arthit's. And in that moment, Arthit drank the acceptance, riding high on the trust and care shown.

If everyone deserved the care, loyalty and affection. Why didn't he. He deserved it too. And while given freely. He will damn well accept it.

Arthit met his awaiting gaze " Mine to please. Mine to keep" he pledged.

" Yours to care, yours to love. " Kong added smiling that sinful open smile with honest twinkling eyes that unarmed him each time.

" set one minute timer in your watch Kongpob " Arthit growled, setting his eyes on the watch and within seconds Kong announced " done" .

Kong barely managed to press his palms against Wall before Arthit dived in,like Kongpob's body was a three course meal.

He encased Kongpob's member in one go, his mouth a warm glove around Kongpob's member. Kong sucked a sharp breath in, he knew there was much more sweet torture to come within seconds. Seconds that felt both long like hours as tried to predict Arthit's next move and short like blinks as his senses drowned in pleasure.

Arthit expertly bobbed his head, fast and precise ,while fingers of his left hand played with Kongpob's balls and thumb of the right hand massaged the entrance while the fingers traced the short path from his perineum to twitching entrance.

Arthit was too much Knowledgeable about the matters of bodily pleasure for Kobg to one up him so Kong just prayed he could atleast stall his arousal reaching its peak for atleast a little more than a minute. He tried to recall the nursery rhymes but his mind went blank as Arthit released his member with an audible pop and wrapped his fingers around the slicked , pulsating rod.

The nursery rhyme lost somewhere with his resolve, Kong bucked his hips as Arthit pulled back the skin covering glsns of his uncut member and wiggled the top of his tongue in the slit, releasing the skin, which covered Arthit's tongue like an obscene glove.

Arthit moved his fist up and down fast and faster while he tongue fucked Kongpob's slit, the thumb around the anus , poked and teased , just shy of entering it.

Kong didn't even realize when he started thrusting back, making Arthit's task easier by thousand times. He lost it when Arthit grabbed both his buttocks and swallowed his cock whole. The head of his member nestled in the moist cavity of Arthit's throat while he kept hollowing his mouth while bobbing it a little , the combination of thrilling pleasure from suction and a slight pains from Arthit's nails digging in smooth flesh of his ass, sent Kong beyond the threshold. He threw his head back, eyes closed on its own accord while every muscle in his body strung taut.

The timer beeped somewhere in background which none of them paid heed , lost as they were in throes of passion.

Kong curled his toes as his abdomen contracted, his thighs trembled, balls tightened sending waves of his release down Arthit's throat which he swallowed without spilling a drop.

Only when Arthit had milked every last drop out of Kongpob and even the small twitching of his member halted with the object of attention going limp under his ministrations did Arthit released it .

Sated and exhausted Kong dropped on his knees , still straddling Arthit. He put his head on Arthit's shoulder. Arthit patted Kongpob's head affectionately.
" well done Suthiluck. You won. I will try my best to be the best boyfriend you ever had."

Shocked, Kong raised his head. " You are only boyfriend I will ever have. But ,I didn't win. You had me spilling before timer beeped. "

"I definitely did not. "

" You did. Or don't you want me to be your boyfriend? "

" Want ...I want so much. "

"Have you ever thought I perhaps need a reason to prevent me from fleeing or breaking down.."

" The idea of relationship with me is scary for you ? "

" Being with you ? Nope. I like it. Labeling it as a relationship, framing it in boundaries of expectations. Yes. Very much so...none of the relationship I had were particularly healthy - whether it be with my mother or friend or mentor or my so called lover let alone the people I encountered."

" I am not expecting anything from you. I am not forcing you. I can wait . You don't have to do it right now... "

" I know Suthiluck but I want to. I am selfish. I want to see what a healthy relationship looks like, feels like. I have taken a big step today by throwing their shit in their faces. And I think I want to have this- I want to try this you and me thing. "

" Its an us thing. "

" see ...I can't even dare to call it us. I want break all the boundaries this society had caged me in. I want to break all the lines have trapped myself in.."

" Tell me more. Can I help you? What should I do to help you ? "

" I want to have a boyfriend who won't be ashamed to call me his, in public. "

Kong grinned " That I can do. If you will have me as your partner, I will shout out from rooftops and towers. I will tell it to everyone who listens. "

Arthit matched Kongpob's grin " Don't you dare do it in reality Suthiluck. "

" Why ? "

"Because I said so" Arthit Sassed." And because You should listen to your boyfriend."

" Okay Boyfriend " Kong saluted." Any other order for me ? "

" Now, just hold me tight until I can believe it's real.."

Kong wrapped his hand around Arthit. " Aren't you still hard ?"

" may be ...may be not. "

" I am confused now " Kong frowned. " are you or are you not ? "
" I am . " Arthit said " don't worry about it. Just hold me. "

" But you want to have sex whenever you are talking about hard things or facing hard things. "

" And we had sex. Now I want hugs. " wrapping his hand around, Arthit pulled Kong in to tighter hug.

" But only I got to reach completion you didn't release. You always want - "

" Only contact I knew intimately and was confident in, was sex of all kinds. That is what I did because that is only thing everyone sought from me and only thing I could give them. "

" I want hugs from you . "

" I want to want them from you too. "

" What are you scared of ? "

" What if it's just a phase? Me being confident and taking what I need and want. What if I chicken out and go back in my boundaries ? "

" I will wait till you come out. I will do what I can to help you to come out. Isn't that what a good boyfriend does ? "

" What if I could never come out ? "

" Tell me this first. You know I will never be able to understand your emotions completely. How will you deal with it ? "

" Through trial and errors. Giving you space to learn. Being patient. "

" That's answer to your question..."

Arthit fell silent. Kong made him rest his head on his shoulder. " When everything becomes too much to take in, rest your head on my shoulder and just breathe. Let me protect you till you are ready to lift your sword. "

And Arthit did as told. He closed his eyes, relaxed his body and just enjoyed the feeling of a lover's embrace.

" Kong ... " Arthit called after a long time.

" Hmm..."

" Can't belive I stood my ground against them. I can't take that back , can I ? "

" Do you want to ? "

" No"

" Then we will fight them tooth and nail. "

" What if we fail ? "

" We will know we didn't go down silently. We fought and we gave them a good fight.."

" Kong " Arthit called again after a long pause.

" Hmm.." Kong hummed in acknowledgement.

" I want to window's. I don't want to loose... Do I sound silly ? "

" No.." Kong replied. " You sound like a true Warrior. You know you have odds stacked up against you but you chose to fight and that's half war won. "

" Kong. "

" Hmm..."

" Tell me you won't give up on me no matter how difficult being with me proves? "

" If there's anything I know with certainty, its only this that my heart, body and soul wants you, needs you and craves you."

" Kong ..."

Hmm...."
Arthit reached out a hand in his back pocket and gave his gear.
" safeguard it for me."

And for once, Kong was speechless.
