This os takes place at the beginning of ep 8 where Dome is in the Limbo. He watches Katha and Chan's interaction and gets jealous when Katha appears out of nowhere and asks if he was jealous and all. In the series Katha tells him he is a fragment of his imagination, but in this os he doesn't do so so Dome thinks he's actually the real Katha. A steamy os ahead!

--------------------

Dome had a large disembodied screen, or hologram for the lack of a better word, floating in front of him. He stood there watching Chan, who looked like his carbon copy and Katha talk with those soft gazes. He couldn't help but smile watching Katha smile so tenderly at the other. He has never seen that man without his usual cold demeanor. The hologram glitched once or twice before disappearing in the air. He sighed and turned around.

"They look like some loving brothers", he stated with utter disappointment. Just why can't Katha be like that around him? He has been so lonely in this strange place where there's violet foggy swirling mists down and vast celestial firmament above. Not a soul to talk to.

Dome has been liking Katha since the latter tried saving him from that awful encounter with the cursed half human- half poisonous insects. Even though Dome was in that situation because of the taller man itself, but still!

"Why?"

A familiar voice brought him out of his thought. He snapped his head towards the owner of that voice. Of course, it was Katha.

"Are you jealous?" Katha smirked at the younger seeing the latter eyes widen in recognition.

"Khun Katha, how did you come here?!"

"I can think of you as my brother too", he looked around a bit completely ignoring the question before looking back at Dome.

"Who wants to be your brother?" Dome faked a huff, blushing a bit.

"Don't pretend you are mad. I only said what was on your mind", Katha said shrugging before walking behind the younger one.

"On my mind? You can read minds?"

"I am doing it now", Katha smiled.

"Then you should know it's not what I was thinking! How can you be here? If you already know how to get here, then you must know how to get out of here, why don't you take me back?" He asked again, trying hard not to look at how Katha's lips had stretched into a smile.

"This place, it's quite beautiful", Katha answered ignoring Dome's question again.

"It is, but-" Dome found a slender finger over his lips cutting him up. His cheeks heated up on finding the intense stare Katha was giving.

"Calm down, will you?" He removed his finger slowly while Dome looked at him flushed, relishing the touch until the finger completely leaves his lips.

Dome nodded, hesitantly.

"Tell me about this place, you've been here for more hours than I have", Katha began, patting the younger's back.

"It's- it's called the Limbo. It's a temporal rift", he looked at the swirling celestial bodies over him, "Time here is a bit strange. I can't recall how many hours have already passed or has a day already passed or no." He paused for a moment before whispering, "I don't want to live here."

Katha walked around him again and swooped down to his level, "what do you think this place is?" He smirked, knowingly.

If Dome wasn't confused at the words the taller man said, he would've blushed at this Katha in front of him. The expression was as if done intentionally to rile him up.

"Huh?" He blinked a few times before tearing his gaze away shyly. Looking around he found the typewriter, the glass ball, the mannequin, and other artifacts rising from the foggy floor.

"Wait- aren't they the cursed artifacts from Zone 16?!" Dome's face lit up with hope. Can he finally go back now? "Is this the museum?"

Katha tilted his head just a little before raising his eyebrows probably telling him 'maybe' and the younger found the expression hella hot.

Was this the Katha he knew?

Get a grip on yourself will you, Ai' Dome!

"Do you think any of these items will help you escape from here?" Katha asked urging him to look around.

So he did. He looked around curiously before stopping at the pay phone. He's never seen it before, never had he encountered what it exactly does.

He walked towards it curiously. "What does it do?"

"Well, I don't know... what do you think a phone does?" Katha answered sarcastically albeit with a teasing smile.

"Other than calling, I mean", Dome rolled his eyes, "there was a reason why it was kept in Zone 16, wasn't it?"

"Why don't you try it and find out yourself?" Katha walked towards him, arms crossed over his chest. He then leaned on the glass box with a flirtatious smile on his face.

Dome wishes he can wipe out that smile because even though he's loving it, it is also deeply annoying him to the core.

"Who should I call?" He wondered out loud.

"Why don't you try calling me?" The taller man supplied.

"Huh? Why?"

"Well it's a trial so... Why not?" He answered, "besides if you do so, you'd be the first 'brother' who will call me on my phone for the second time," That lazy smirk widened.

Dome blushed, forcing his eye roll. "Fine. Whatever", he managed to answer without stuttering from all those heartbeats going crazy in him.

"Call me on my phone and talk to me. Tell me everything about where you are. Pretend as if I am not here but there on the other side of the phone", Katha's smile fell and seriousness coated his face instead.

As much as Dome missed the smile, he gets confused at the graveness. But whatever, there's no harm in giving it a try. Right?

So he did. He typed in Katha's phone number and placed the receiver over his ear.

Please let it work. Please let it work. Please let it work.

And it did.

Someone picked it up.

"Hello?" Of course, it was Katha's voice. The voice made him forget the fact that the owner of the voice was standing right beside him.

"Hello? Hello? Khun Katha?" He said doing exactly what this Katha told him to.

"Dome? Is that you?" Panic is the only visible emotion in the voice.

"Khun Katha I'm in the Limbo!"

"What?"

"The Limbo! Limbo!"

"Limbo? What is Limbo?"

"A temporal rift", he managed to speak out before continuous beeps filled his ear.

He looked at the receiver and then around. There was no Katha.

Wait! Where did he go?

He was here just now, right?

Does this phone makes the person who is called disappear?

No no no no no!

"Katha!! Katha! Don't leave me!! Katha!!" He cried out at the receiver as if he shouted out loud it can reach the latter.

He typed in the numbers continuously, but no call was sent and no call was recieved.

There was silence on the other side.

NO NO NO NO NO NO!!!

Unbeknownst to him tears were falling from his eyes as he leaned on the glass wall inside the payphone booth, still holding the receiver in his hand.

"Don't leave me here again, please!" He begged, now sobbing with his eyes screwed shut.

Before he could ever grasp what was happening, a hand grabbed his hand clutching a receiver. He opened his eyes to find the brown eyes looking at him intensely before brushing the tears off his face and placing his other hand on Dome's waist.

"Katha..." He managed to speak out. To be this close to Katha... It must be a dream... It's good to be a reality.

"I am always here, even if you can't see me, stupid!" He looked at Dome tenderly, before patting his hand on Dome's head. The look given to him was even more tender than how Katha gave to Chan.

Dome didn't know what occurred to him next but he found himself diving in to press his lips against Katha. Katha let out some incoherent words, before closing his eyes and clutching Dome's shirt firmly. The lips remained on each other in a chaste kiss that didn't fail to zap electricity down their spines. Dome shivered at the intensity making his unshed tears drop.

When they did let go, Katha looked at him intensely. His eyes went from the latter's eyes to his lips, at which he involuntarily licked his own.

"I don't think I can stop myself anymore, Dome", Katha whispered even though it was only them inside the glass booth. His name on the latter man's lips made Dome's stomach jump and then fall. Shit if that wasn't so hot!

"Never asked you to", he gasped out before taking Katha's lips again. The latter pushed him against the glass before flushing against him making the receiver fall from his hand. He gently licks Dome's bottom lip asking permission to enter the cavern. And Dome gives it to him with a breathy moan circling his hand around Katha's neck. Katha's tongue immediately ventures in licking him all around from the roof of the mouth to wrapping it with the latter's tongue. It made Dome's toes curl and knees buckle. He nibbled and sucked Katha's lips who moaned before doing the same thing to Dome getting a delirious sound from the younger.

Shit shit shit. Dome's heart is going to jump out of his mouth at this rate. And not to talk about his face. It was warm and red. He can already feel it burning. Blood sloshed into his ears gushing and cutting off every possible noise.

Katha is going to be the death of him.

Katha pulled him towards him even more, his hands teasingly crawling towards his butt before grabbing it and pulling him up against the glass wall- all without breaking the kiss. Dome opened his eyes and broke the kiss with a gasp before looking at the latter, panting. His hands had clutched Katha's suit. The taller man was also looking at him searching for his reaction.

Why did he stop? Dome thought with an almost whine. His face burn at the intensity of the stare he was receiving and his embarrassing thought didn't help at all.

"I can read your mind", Katha's smirked his swollen lips, and skewed hair sticking in all over the places making Dome even more flustered.

He shyly wrapped his legs around Katha's waist, "I know".

Katha smiled that taunting smile at the latter making Dome lean down and wipe the smile off with a smooch. And he did succeed. Katha returned kissing him back diving his tongue into the wet cavern, making Dome moan for the umpteenth time. He was already addicted to his kisses.

Katha pulled away with a 'pop' ducking down to leave butterfly kisses on his jaw and moving towards his ear. He gave a slow lick on the ear shell before biting the earlobe gently, tugging on it. Dome let out a shaky breath and almost inaudible 'Katha's. He fisted his hands on Katha's suit as the man dipped down clutching on the juncture between the neck and the shoulder sucking, nibbling, and licking there. Dome threw his head back at the sensation. It made his stomach do more somersaults.

Katha's hands shifted position since Dome was practically glued to the glass wall behind him and Katha in front of him and there was no way the younger one would fall. Katha hooked the fingers of one hand on the belt loops on his jeans while the other slides inside his shirt. Going upwards and upwards towards-

He snaps his eyes open to find the four heads peering at him with concern. He sits up, looking around the room. A pair of hands clutches his face and turn it to the other side. A very concerned Katha looked at him with eyebrows furrowed. He pulled his head from one side to the other to inspect.

"Are you alright? Are you alive?" He asked.

Dome blushed furiously before forcing himself to nod. Katha was pulled away from him by an angry June.

"He just woke up, for God's sake! Give him some space, will you?" She grumbled.

"Are you alright, Dome? Did you have a nightmare?" Bam enquired carefully, "you were panting so much while you were unconscious, we got worried".

Triphob, too, looks at him with concern, "and your face is red too....do you feel sick?"

"I-I..." Dome mentally face-palmed himself. He looked at Katha once before closing his eyes.

Now how would he say them he was practically devouring the museum owner in his unconscious state, or dream, or whatever that was?

Katha is going to the death of him for sure.
