STRAWBERRY | Forthbeam

Forth's POV

We ran to our classes since we were getting late. I was smiling after the lunch incident with Beam. He was so cute while being stubborn. I really wanted to squish his cheeks. After classes Park and Lam brought me to our usual café.

"What is going on between you and Beam?" Lam said to me while forcing me to face him.

"Are you guys secretly dating?" Park asked

"Why was Beam jealous?"

"Are you guys lovers? Is that why you guys started living together?"

"Why aren't you telling us? Is it because he wanted it to keep it secret"

Park and Lam started bombard me with questions.

"Woah, woah guys calm down. Calm your asses. What is with the 20 questions? And what makes you think that I and Beam are dating?" I don't understand what they are talking about.

"Well the way you were spoiling Beam it clearly said that you guys are dating" Park stated

"I wasn't spoiling Beam. I was just worried that he will get sick if he didn't eat anything. He is my friend so of course I will worry about him"

"Friend my ass. We are your friends too, but you don't treat us that way. You may bring us food when we are sick, but you wouldn't care if we don't eat it. But with Beam you fed him"

Lam exaggerated.

"And you were explaining what happened at the bar. You were disturbed when he didn't answer your calls. You never acted like that before"

Park demanded

"Is he the reason you stopped playing" Lam interrupted Park

I looked away from them. I don't know what to tell them actually. Because what they said is questioning my behavior with Beam.

"Are you gonna talk or not Forth?"

"To answer your questions I really don't know. The only thing I know is that I don't like it when he is distant with me. And now I have to go. See you tomorrow"

I left them.

Beam's POV

I was making us dinner. Forth hasn't come home yet. It is raining heavily outside. It was all of a sudden. I tried to call him but he didn't pick up. Suddenly I heard his bikes sound. He came inside. Soaking wet.

"Go and take a shower" I yelled from the kitchen.

Later he entered kitchen with a towel hanging around his neck. His hair is still dripping. I reached for the towel and started to dry his hair. But the towel wasn't doing best job at drying it. So I took his hand a led him to my room and made him sit on the couch to bring my hair dryer. While I was drying his hair I realized his eyes were focusing solely on me. This made me blush. I stopped my movements. Since hair is dry now.

"Food is ready" I said while running away from his room.

Forth's POV

I was mesmerized by the view Beam was giving me while drying my hair. He looked so cute while focusing. When he felt my gaze on him he ran away. Adorable.

He prepared dinner for us I can see he is flushed. I wanted to tease him about it but at the same time I am worried about these feelings towards him. We didn't talk too much. he is washing the dishes i went near him. This silence is killing me. so I decided to break it.

"Beam are you free this weekend?"

"Yes I am"

"Would you like to come with me to my home?"

"What?" he looked so shocked.

"I said would you like to come with to my home" I repeated

"Why? Why do you want me to go home with you"

"Well my bike needs some maintenance so I am planning to have it fixed on the weekend. So if you come with me we can use your car for my transport"

"So you need my car that is why"

"Yes I do need your car but most of all I want to show you something else"

"Show me what?"

"It is a surprise"

"I hate surprises"

"Don't worry you will love it"

"But considering you, I am more worried "

"Worried about what?"

"Well you may take me to your secret mafia world"

"What you mean by mafia?"

"well you look like a thug. And there are some rumors that you are in a gang"

"Busted. I thought I was hiding it well. I was lowkey trying to take you to kidnap you" I said playing along

"For what to kill me"

"No to make you my wife" I said smirking.

"You asshole" he shouted and got up to hit me

I caught his hands and held them on his back. I pulled him close to me.

"I am not a women you asshole"

"But you are prettier than a girl. So pretty that if you just put a wig on you can easily fool anyone"

"I am not pretty I am handsome" he said while pouting. Oh god, doesn't he know how adorable he looks now.

"You are adorable" I couldn't help but say. He is blushing more if that was possible. His lips are looking so addicted. My heart is beating so fast I leaned in. It is now or never. But before I could get a taste of his lips we heard a door bell. Beam got out from my grip and dashed to the door. Damn it, people need to stop coming in at the wrong time.

It was our neighbor they wanted us to invite to their kids birthday party.

After they left Beam went straight to his room.

Forth's POV

Me and Beam are on our way to my home. Yes I convinced him to come home with me on the weekend.

He fell asleep on half way. He had pretty tight schedule this week. I have already informed my family I will bring my friend to home.

I woke Beam up when we reached home.

"Beam wake up we are here"

Beam woke up and got out from the car.

"is this your home"

"yes. Welcome to my humble home"

"Humble home my ass. This looks like a castle. You are rich"

"No my parents are rich"

"You are loaded with money then why didn't you ask our parents for money to live at a hotel instead of staying with me"

"Why you don't like I live with you. I am hurt" I said acting hurt.

"No it is not like that I just wanted to know why you didn't ask them for money"

"Well I already spent their money they send me for my gadgets. And if I ask for more they will ask me to work in their business for that so"

"Okay then. I was just curious you know. I don't have any problem that you are staying with me. I mean I did asked you to live with me so"

"It is a pretty good deal for me I can save money at the same time I get to live with a pretty like you"

I said winking

"I am not pretty I am handsome"

"You live with him?"

I turned around to see Tharn standing outside. Oh shit now I am in trouble.
