【FOURTH x GEMINI】

Chapter 2: We've been together all summer nights.

-

Gemini didn't know why he was here.

When he opened his eyes, he already saw himself standing on a golden sand beach, in front of him was a familiar figure that he always missed.

It was Fourth. His beloved Fourth.

"So if you really are a moth, how can you become human?" Fourth asked while trying Pad Thai, it wasn't as good as the one he made himself but it wasn't that bad. It weren't sour or spicy enough, but luckily Gemini was quite easy-going, he happily ate almost everything Fourth ordered. Are all moths so easy to raise like this?

"I don't know." Gemini frowned, "When I opened my eyes I already saw Fourth walking towards the sea. I was so scared, I didn't want you to go so I quickly called you back."

"Do you really know me?"

"At first, I didn't remember who you were, only knew that you were really important to me. It's a bit sad that P'Fourth doesn't remember me. But I still decided to wait for you, because I knew you would come back. While I was waiting for you to come back, I talked to the moths and remembered all the days we spent together, they also told me that I only had seven days left. If I can't do it, I have to go back."

"To where?"

"I don't know. They flew away before I could asked. Moths are really mean guys."

"Aren't you also one of them?"

Fourth felt so funny because of this strange boy, for some reason he sometimes wanted to believe what he said, that there were only seven days left until he had to leave. His heart ached at the thought that seven days later he would not see this lovely boy anymore.

"It's different, they're out in the wild, and I've been with P'Fourth all the summer nights."

Gemini tilted his head and smiled, his chapped lips parted to reveal two adorable rabbit teeth that made Fourth's heart beat faster. Maybe P'Satang was right, about 'falling in love' part, Fourth no longer even felt pain when thinking about Ploy. But when he looking back, it seemed like it had been a long time since he had thought of her, as if something had filled the void in his heart during the time he tried to heal. But then what is it?

[P'Satang, was I acting strange or something weird happen after I broke up with Ploy?] He texted Satang and then stood up to clear the plates and collect the trash, after joking around with Gemini.

"So you've been a good moth all this time, huh? Want some rewards?"

"Can I?" He asked, his eyes widening in surprise, then quickly becoming cheerful.

"Sure, but first help me change the bed sheets, I just ordered the new one earlier while ordering food. Do you know how to do it?"

"Yes, I guess so..."

"Okay. I trust you na. Now hurry up, little bunny."

After Gemini brought a pile of new blankets, pillows and bed sheets into the room, Fourth started to clean up the living room. It started to rain outside again, which is typical of autumn weather. Only the sound of rain could be heard in his ears, making Fourth feel a bit deprived and somewhat lonely.

Please don't leave. His heart begged.

When he finally entered the room, he was surprised to see that Gemini had already changed the bed sheet.

It's nice not have to sleep on the trash anymore, his mind (again) screamed with excitement.

"Change it so quickly? Gemini really looks forward to his reward, am I right? Tell me bunny, what do you want?"

"Hug...I want to hug P'Fourth."

"That's all you want?"

Gemini nodded, looking so obedient and adorable that Fourth immediately sat down on the bed and pulled Gemini onto his lap, wrapping his arms around his waist and hugging him tightly.

"Let's see, I can hug you...and kiss you. Do you like it?"

Fourth chuckled when he saw Gemini shyly nodded, then he gently kissed his rosy cheeks, his hand also went into under the hoodie to touch his small waist. The calluses on the fingertips slid across the soft flesh, sending shivers throughout Gemini's body.

"F-Fourth..."

"Hmm? What's wrong baby?"

"It's weird..."

"What's weird?"

Gemini was confused when he felt his butt being groped. The strange feeling made his lower body tremble slightly. He immediately looked at the Fourth in confusion and said:

"Everything...Everything is weird."

"Which part is weird?"

Fourth smiled evilly, rolled up Gemini's hoodie, two small spots on his chest trembling in the air were quickly bitten by Fourth. When he finally let go, they were became all red and swollen.

"Is this part weird?"

He blinked innocently, as an emphasis, he bit Gemini's chest leaving a deep tooth mark, then crawled into his boxers and grabbed his erect penis.

"Or maybe it's the little felow down here who feels uncomfortable?"

"P-Please..."

His voice trembled immensely as Fourth's long fingers moved up and down on his cock, thumb wiping the pre-cum and rubbing circles on the foreskin, turning Gemini into a moaning mess.

"Baby do you feel so good that you can't talk?"

"More...please...P'Fourth..."

Fourth laughed again, he felt like this was the day he laughed the most this year. His hand kept playing with his penis while his teeth left countless bite marks on Gemini's throat and collarbone, as well as similar marks on his chest, until Gemini couldn't take it anymore, arching his back and shot his cum all over Fourth's hand.

"Ah...hah..."

The taller panted, leaning his head on Fourth's shoulder trying to regulate his breathing. Suddenly a strange object was put into his mouth, carrying a strong taste that he had never experienced before. At the same time, Fourth's dominating voice reached his ears like an irrevocable command.

"Suck it."

The tip of his pink tongue immediately stuck out to lick the sticky white fluid along the long finger. His eyes looked passionately at the other person as if he was enjoying a sweet dessert. This sight made the corners of Fourth's mouth curl even higher. He resisted the urge to kiss those plump lips, to swallow that mischievous tongue, and instead gently rubbed Gemini's earlobe.

"Good boy."

After the arousing scene just now, the two lay next to each other on the bed that smelled of new fabric, Fourth hugged Gemini in his arms, his fingers playing with the hair that fell across his forehead.

"Do you know why you became human and appeared in front of me?"

"Hmm. I think I know, but not very sure. It might related to my wish, and P'Fourth."

"What's is your wish?"

"I don't remember."

Fourth pondered, the hand holding Gemini unconsciously tightened.

"Maybe you need me to help you find your true identity, I mean this body's true identity."

"Maybe." Gemini smiled sadly. "I don't really care, as long as I'm with P'Fourth, then everything is fine."

"So am I, Gemini. So am I."

"Good night, P'Fourth."

"Good night, little moth."

[Day 2]

Fourth was awakened by the fading sunlight and the cold wind blowing through the loose window frame. Today seems like another rainy day. There was no longer a trace of Gemini lying next to him, the mattress soon no longer had human warmth. The sound of the TV came from the living room, so Fourth dragged his aching body along with that sound and immediately met the handsome guy hugging his knees on the sofa watching the cheesy TV show from Korean named "Transit love".

Never been a fan of reality TV shows but Fourth still sat next to Gemini, wrapped his arms around his waist, and smelled the natural grass scent emanating from him.

"Is it good?"

"I don't really get it, what is 'ex lover'?"

"That's when people step out of a relationship, they become ex lover."

"But why?" Gemini blinked in confusion, pointing towards the TV screen, "She looked so miserable, if leaving was so painful then why didn't they stay?"

Fourth chuckled, his hand crawling into his hoodie and lightly pinching the smooth flesh, "That's what people do, create a happy scenario for themselves and then feel disappointed when things don't turn out the way they want. In the end, they think they no longer love the other person and just easily leave this relationship, without realizing that what they truly love is the illusion they have created for themselves about the ideal model. But unfortunately, humans are creatures with the most flaws, and because they have flaws, they desire the most perfect things. So stupid, right?"

Looking at Gemini's expression, it seemed like he still didn't quite understand. Fourth was in no hurry but looked closely at the other person's face. Actually, he still didn't believe too much in the moth story that Gemini told, but if he really is a fraud, is there any value in tricking Fourth? Knowing that Fourth was just a guy who just went bankrupt, could he still continue to pretend?

After thinking for a while, Gemini finally spoke, his body unconsciously leaning closer to Fourth's, his fingers drawing small circles on his thigh.

"I think I understand that. I've imagined so many times what it would be like if I were P'Ploy, being able to be next to P'Fourth, to talk to you, to hug you, to kiss you, and do anything with you as a real person. And now I have done it."

"Disappointed?" Fourth said humorously.

"Not really." Gemini giggled, "You're just colder than I thought, but it makes sense, who can trust a stranger who calls himself a moth and says he's been by your side for a whole summer?"

Then he continued, "But it's alright, this is enough to make me so happy that I want to explode. I love everything about you, your voice, your expressions, your beautiful smiling eyes, and all your touches."

"It's fine if you don't believe me, but please let me stay with you for the next six days, can you?"

Gemini's voice cracked, as if something inside him was crying, his eyes filled with sadness, his chapped lips pressed tightly together with tension.

"Fine, but you have to have lunch with me, I don't want my bunny to starve to death."

Fourth's grandma's house is a 15-minute drive from the city center, because it had been gloomy all morning, he decided to drive Gemini to the center. First, because there's nothing to eat around here, and secondly, to find out if anyone knows Gemini.

"What would you like to eat?"

"Can we try salad?"

Fourth felt confused but didn't say anything more, steering towards the center. At noon, there were quite a few people so they easily found a restaurant next to the beach, known for its ข้าวมันไก่ (chicken rice) and ยำเนื้อย่าง (spicy steak salad).

"Welcome to Moonlight Chicken."

"Table for two, please."

"There is a table near the window, let me show you."

"Thanks."

Fourth politely pulled out a chair for Gemini and sat down opposite him, giving him the menu so he could order first. This restaurant is not too big but the layout is very elegant, wooden tones cover the entire space, there are windows facing the sea but not exposed to harsh sunlight because there is an outside porch.

"Enjoy your meal na."

The handsome waiter placed two plates on the table. The dish is quite simple, just boiled chicken and seasoned rice, served with chilli sauce and usually with cucumber garnishes. And then another dish was brought out, render strips of beef are coated in a fiery dressing, while an array of herbs add freshness and more flavour. They all tasted delicious, but Fourth noticed that Gemini only ate the beef and didn't touch the salad much.

"How is it?"

"Delicious!" Gemini imitated the little girl sitting at the next table, giving Fourth a thumbs up, adorable bunny teeth smiling at him.

Cute.

"You don't like the salad? Thought you wanted to eat it."

"The taste is so bland." He pouted, but when Fourth tried it he found it extremely delicious.

"It's delicious. Maybe you just don't like vegetables. Here try some carrots."

As expected, Gemini's expression when eating that orange one remained the same, his eyebrows furrowed, small nose snorted in annoyance, and he even poked the salad plate excessively to express his disapproval.

Just like a baby. Cute baby.

Fourth could felt like something was wrong with his heart, but not that he was complaining about it. Gemini is a lovely guy, although his behavior is sometimes a bit silly, his cuteness cannot be denied. Then we have Fourth who always has a special place for cute things, so it's only natural that he has feelings for Gemini, right?

"If you don't like vegetables, why would you want to try salad?"

"I saw P'Fourth ate that a lot." Gemini placed the salad away from him, "You've been eating that all the summer, I mean, literally every single day, even when you were sick. So I wonder if it's really that good? I also tried eating the leaf from the tree but it tasted terrible. This human leaf is better, but still not to my taste."

"Did you eat the leaf just because I ate it?"

"Yes, I just want to know you more. Is it wrong?"

"No." Fourth chuckled, "You're so cute. Now eat your chicken rice and give me that yummy salad, you silly moth."

"You call me silly, again!!!"

Fourth just smiled without saying anything.

After lunch, Fourth took Gemini to the mall to buy some clothes, although he said he didn't need it but Fourth still went on anyway. They bought so many clothes that Gemini doubted he could wear them all, then Fourth bought him an ice cream and told him he had to take a phone call and would be right back. Gemini could vaguely hear a voice on the other end of the line, it was Satang and somehow it sounded very serious. What could it be? Probably the bankruptcy of Fourth's company.

Bankruptcy.

Gemini had heard this word a lot over the summer, he still didn't understand what it meant (moths aren't very smart insects), but it seemed to have a very bad connotation. Because before it appeared, Fourth was very happy, he often laughed, talked a lot, and never though about death. Not like now, but that's still fine. It's really fine, because Gemini won't let anything bad happen to Fourth. He swore to himself, could the moth's oath be witnessed?

"Hey Norawit, where have you been for the past month? Where's my sister money?"

A group of about 3-4 people held Gemini's arm tightly. The man who seemed to be the leader of the gang suddenly punched Gemini hard in the face, causing him to fall to the ground, and the ice cream that Fourth just bought for him also fell onto the ground.

People around started whispering about the incident. When they saw that, they angrily turned around and about to left. Before leaving, they also kicked him hard in the stomach: "You think that pretending to be dead can help you to hide from us?"

"What the fuck are you doing to him?!"

Fourth suddenly appeared to help Gemini to stand up, painfully wiping the blood flowing from Gemini's nose, frowning as he looked at the group of people brazenly preparing to leave.

"Seems like you just found for yourself a new hot boyfriend, huh Norawit? Is he so rich that you're willing to rise from the grave? Or is he fucking your little ass so hard you can see heaven? Maybe next time you can come to me cutie, and use that juicy ass to pay off the money you tricked from my sister." The leader turn to Fourth, "Be careful young man, I don't know what this guy lied to you about, but he's just trying to scam all your money. Just like he did to my sister, his name is Norawit, he lives in a village near the beach, just say his name and the whole village will tell you all the 'good' things he has done."

Those gangsters immediately burst out laughing and left, leaving Gemini's face pale because of those scary words. Even though he was just a silly moth like Fourth said, he could also understand that the owner of this body was not a very kind person, and will most likely be killed again if he cannot pay the money back. Not that he cares, tho. The main problem was that he worried that Fourth would think the same, that he just a fraud trying to take all his money and run away just like the orginal "Norawit".

He never wanted Fourth to hate him, not even a little bit.

Fortunately, Fourth didn't ask anything, just let Gemini lean on him, while examining the wound on his body, his face grimacing unsightly when he saw Gemini's bruised abdomen.

"P'Fourth..." Gemini said in panic, his voice shaking "I really don't know anything, I-"

"It's fine, don't worry Gemini. I trust you." Fourth gave Gemini a reassuring smile, but his cold eyes reflected the truth behind his words.

"Oh. Okay." He lowered his head, knowing that Fourth didn't believe him, and it probably had something to do with the phone call with Satang.

"Let's go back, it's starting to rain again."

As soon as he finished speaking, it started pouring rain, the drive back home became strangely quiet. While Gemini was upset about the recent incident, Fourth's mind wandered around the previous conversation with Satang.

"What's wrong Phi?"

"The detective just sent me the results about the guy you asked me to find his identity, it turned out that he was not mentally ill at all but was just a famous fraud in a village near Pattaya beach. His name is Norawit Titicharoenrak, 22 years old, born in May, an orphan and a professional fraud who takes advantage of teenage girls to gain love and money. He especially uses his handsome appearance and sweet tongue to flirt with others. I think you should chase him away, it's not safe to be with him at all."

"Do I have anything precious left to scam? I'm bankrupt, remember?"

"Bankrupt my ass, your foreign assets are still there, you can still open a dozen new companies if you want."

"What a pity, huh?" Fourth chuckled, "Having so much money but the person you love the most still chooses to betray you just because of a moment of failure. And the only person by my side right now is a fraud who calls himself a moth. My life is just like a comedy, right Phi?"

"Fourth..."

"Don't worry Phi, I'll tell him about my bankruptcy, and then he'll just leave, like everyone else."

Disappointment suddenly filled Fourth's heart, he didn't know what he was expecting, if only Gemini was really a moth, maybe things would be much better.

Even when they returned home, Fourth didn't say a word but went into his room and slammed the door, leaving Gemini standing hesitantly in the middle of the empty house, with an empty heart not knowing what to do.

[8 p.m]

It was a long sleep. The damn rain still showed no signs of stopping, Fourth looked around the house and there was no second person, but there was already a plate of food on the table. The plate was still warm, it seemed like it had just finished cooking 15 minutes ago.

But what surprised Fourth was that they were all home-cooked food: a few boiled eggs that looked broken, scorched white rice and a plate of wilted boiled vegetables, he didn't even know where the other person found the ingredients.

It can't be denied that Fourth was also a little worried about Gemini, 'cause he had already finished the 'delicious' dinner and that boy still hadn't returned. But when he thought again, if Gemini doesn't have any mental problems, then wherever the other person wanders is not something he need to worry about, right?

Fourth waited until 12 o'clock at night but the other person still hadn't returned, so he decided to go back to bed. Since that person also has legs, and when it rains, he will know where to find shelter. If not, he might as well return to that damn village, after all, that's where he should return from the begin.

What a shitty day!
