Only Us Knows
-Two months after their Kiss-
Once again they are inside the Pavilion both are completely mad, the younger guy is being stubborn over them not moving forward even after the kiss, even after confessing their feelings to one another, even after all the flirting after class, while the older one is being reasonably mad over Gun purposely being too friendly with the other students inside the classroom in front of him, purposely making him jealous by being too close with students who is obviously wanting to flirt with him.
‘ stop being childish ‘
‘ can you be childish even for once ‘
‘ what you are doing is not cute ‘
‘ what you are doing is not cute either ‘
‘ Mr. Phunsawat ‘ Off warned making Gun sat down defeated.
‘ don’t use that authority, this is not university related *pouts* I’m just saying you are so unfair, you don’t want me to do skin ship with you ever since the kiss, yet when I’m being too close with others you are glaring me like crazy ‘
‘ the no skin ship between us is also for you! I already explained it a thousand times to you right? Tch we should’ve not kissed back then you just keep on being greedy after that, and I’m being mad at you getting too cozy with others is because you are doing it on purpose, you want me to be jealous and lose my composure in front of you without even considering the feelings of those people you used to make me jealous ‘
‘ after the first time you got jealous, I started finding you hot when you are being possessive of me can’t help it ‘ Gun shrugged pouting making Off shy.
‘ Off ‘ he continued to whine making Off lightly flick his forehead.
‘ it’s SIR OFF ‘
Gun rolled his eyes. ‘ Psh you said nothing about it when we kissed you even called me in my first name ‘
‘ it was heat of the moment ‘
‘ *covering ears* whatever ‘
Gun then crawled to Off’s feet, Off raised his eyebrow at him, ‘ what? ‘
‘ can we stop fighting now? I need your teacher expertise ‘
Off chuckled at how Gun is making up with him, ‘ Ok? ‘
Gun pouted playing his fingers ‘ I honestly have no plans for my internship ‘
Off finally understand where they’re going, fifth year students are now all busy on their application for 5-months internship.
‘ what path do you find interesting? ‘
‘ you know that I always love anything that involves painting but recently being in your class I’m starting to love pottery too ‘
Off pinched Gun’s cheeks ‘ is it really pottery or the person teaching you in that class? ‘
Gun bite his lower lip before side hugging Off
‘Seriously, aside from that… I am really falling for pottery ok? ‘
Off slowly removed Gun away from him, holding his hand. ‘ Gun ‘
The latter grin, ‘ I really love it when you are the one saying my name ‘
Off huffed, ‘ Gun, as much as I feel flattered that I made you fall for pottery, I don’t want you choosing that path just because of your fondness in me. You should choose the path that you genuinely enjoy without anyone’s intervention, it’s your future we are talking about here. ‘
Gun’s face saddened. ‘ but places that offers internship with what I want is far from here since it includes actual scenery… unlike pottery, some are just meters away from the university ‘
Off caress Gun’s face ‘ you… see me as your inspiration right? You revived your cravings for the beauty of art when you met me right? *thumb across Gun’s cheek*’
Gun nodded, Off softly poke Gun’s nose ‘ then don’t ever narrow your dreams just because you’re scared of being away from me, no matter where you go as long as you are doing art I am with you. Besides, I can always visit to check on you if you are slacking and ruining the university’s image ‘
Gun’s expression lighten up, ‘ you’ll visit me? for real? Ehhhh wait… is that still part of your duty as our class adviser? ‘
Off moved away from him, jogging out the pavilion when he heard the bell rang ‘ no, I never once visited my former students during their internship it was always the other way around ‘
Gun grin thinking,
and he said he’s not fond of favoritism among his students, well, I am not just a regular student for him to begin with even though we are still not official I know I’m special..

CHRISTMAS EVE
After Christmas and New year holiday marks the start of his internship, that’s why Gun is making every way to spend time with the handsome professor, when the last day of school before holiday break came he whined nonstop to the professor at the pavilion, throwing tantrums, being a baby saying he will miss the latter so much, the very first day of holiday break Gun was being a clingy baby to Off over the phone which the latter didn’t mind at all no matter how busy he was, that’s why when Christmas eve came and Gun’s parents announced them celebrating the night with Adulkittiporn family, Gun literally clapped and jumped out of happiness.
*doorbell rings*
Inside the Adulkittiporn’s residence Off was straightening his red and white knitted sweater that have cute little Pomeranian in it, his sister is wearing the same sweater but with a different design, their sweet mom made those matching sweater.
‘ nervous? Haha ‘
‘ you better behave adopted ‘
Baifern just rolled her eyes before petting Off’s hair.
‘ you look extra handsome today I wonder why ‘
*door opens*
‘ Merry Christmas! ‘ Mrs. Phunsawat lively greeted the family and both families exchanged hugs, the funny thing was Off stumbled to the floor when Gun literally throw himself to Off greeting the latter.
The house was filled with laughter and glee, the elders were clicking their wine glass, while the Adulkittiporn siblings are fighting over where Gun will be sitting, they all gave each other their Christmas gift,
Gun received the same knitted sweater from Off’s mother, a set of painting materials from Off’s father and an expensive watch from Baifern. While Off received a known branded shoulder bag from Gun’s mother and a pair of leather shoes from Gun’s father.
‘ Aw why are you two being shy? Just give each other’s gift here ‘ Baifern teased when she noticed the two didn’t exchanged gifts.
‘ Just let them. Anyway! How about we do something for fun? ‘ Off’s mother clap her hand.
‘ Let’s play bring me? then the one who have the highest item brought will be the winner ‘ She wickedly smile looking at her husband making Off frown.
What are they planning now? Tsk, aside from Gun and his family spending here with us.
The first set of items are just trivial things such as handkerchief, umbrella etc. They were all having fun and Gun can’t help but feel like discovering a very rare sight of the professor whenever he bicker with his sister all throughout the game, it was going well and enjoyable until Off’s mother told the next item.
‘ since Off, Gun and Baifern have their items equally the last one and the most important one will conclude the winner hahaha ‘
‘ hmm, what do you think I should ask? ‘ Off’s mother asked her husband as well as Gun’s parents, that made Off and Gun curious at why their parents glancing at each other suspiciously the whole evening.
‘ The first person who will be able to do this will be rewarded by us older gen *winks*
.
.
.
.
Bring me…..
…
.
.
.
.
the person you love… romantically ‘
Off and Gun froze looking at each other, Off shyly touched his earlobe while Gun stand still playing his fingers across his lips, Baifern gave her mom a certain stare,
‘ Ahhh… so …. this is their plan making these two admit there is something going on with them ‘
She sighed, reaching one of each other’s hand, the two gave her a look.
‘ Just hold each other hands, then bring both of yourself to my crazy mom and get the prize, give me my part too since my fiance is still busy outside the planet. ‘ She said pushing the back of the two people in front of her.
Off let go Gun’s hand making the latter frown, before blushing when Off draped his arm over his shoulder saying,
‘ All of you don’t have to play this dirty you know? Mom, I will personally introduce Gun properly to you if we are already official, and dad when did you plot this with mom? *bow at Gun’s parents* Sir, Ma'am I apologize at my parent’s childishness. This is their way finding out if something changed between Gun and I..
I.. admit I romantically have feelings for Gun but I promise you I won’t do anything to distract your son’s studies or anything that may cause harm to him and will wait for him to graduate first.—‘
Off was cut-off rambling when Gun’s mom welcome him with a warm hug, tossing Gun to the side pouting at his mother for pushing him aside.
‘ Ah! Now we can be at ease knowing Gun’s love is being returned and not one-sided ‘ Gun’s mom whispered to her husband making the latter pat Off's back saying
' that's good to know'.
The Game finished with Off’s parents joking them that the reward was a house and will only be given to them once they are officially a couple or married making Baifern rant jokingly at how she and her boyfriend don’t have that much support, that was only pushed back by their dad saying her boyfriend is rich he can afford to give her one, and Off arguing back that he can also afford buying Gun a house of their own making the older ones laugh when Off realized his outburst.
Baifern and the parents are playing scrabbles in the dining room while Off and Gun are at the balcony drinking wine, Off excused himself and went back with an emoji pillow with heart eyes making Gun laugh, he gave Gun the jar he was holding aside from the emoji.
‘ Merry Christmas ‘ Off greeted.
Gun scan the jar and saw there are paper hearts inside it that have Off’s penmanship he was about to get one to read when Off held his hand,
‘ You can read them when you start being an intern ‘
Gun pouted but nevertheless nodded, snatching the emoji pillow. He then handed Off a mini wooden lamp that have three words carved in it.
The two of them looked each other stupidly before smiling, they slowly reach for each other’s free hand clasping them together as they stand closer watching the fireworks coming from the party plaza near the house.
Best Christmas Ever
