Fourth's POV:

I stayed at Gemini's house because he doesn't allow me to drove back last night, he even talked to me about where I wanted to sleep but I said I'll just stay in the guest room next to his room because I'm not yet feel good about what he did.

That night was very awkward because of what happened, we couldn't even look at each other's eyes.

I admit that I wanted something to happen to us, but not in that way! I don't want anything to happen to us when he's not in his sense, I don't want any of us to regret what will happens when we wakes up in the morning.

I don't know why, but I can't resent and have a grudge against him, it's because I love Gemini. It sounds desperate, but I don't think I can't see myself in the future without Gemini.

Gemini's POV:

*next day

When I woke up in the morning, I still felt dizzy because of the headache, I left the room and went straight to the kitchen to get some water. I didn't think that Fourth was in the kitchen and cooking on the stove, I felt doubt that I would face him because of what happened last night.

I don't know why I hesitated with Fourth, maybe because of the unpleasant behavior I did to him, I sat at the counter and watched Fourth cook.

"Fourth." I softly call his name.

I suddenly stopped mixing the fried rice in the pan when I heard Gemini call my name, I didn't know if I should turn at him or respond because I still felt awkwardness between us.

I wanted to talk to him, but I was afraid that he might do what he did last night again and I'm so intimidated to face him, so I chose to continue cooking and just ignore him.

While were having a breakfast at the same table, I didn't even try or intend to look at him, instead I just slightly bow and keep eating.

"I'm sorry, if made you feel uncomfortable last night." he open the conversation.

My chopsticks slipped through my hands, I was stunned and speechless when he finally talk first and looked straight at him.

"It's okay, let's just forget." Fourth forced a smile.

"Be don't be mad, if I made you uneasy.

"I'm not mad, I'm fine." I put a smile to make it lighten.

Our conversation interrupt we someone ring the doorbell, I initiative to stand up and open the door to make Gemini and I feel less awkward.

I was quite surprise to see Mint standing in front of the door staring at me, Mint entered the house directly as if he had not seen me.

"Where's my boyfriend?" Mint asked as she stepped inside the house.

I closed the door and followed Mint to the kitchen, I force feet to stop from walking and my eyes blinked in astonishment after I saw her approached my husband with a smack kiss on the lips.

Gemini looked at me with a blank stares after Mint kissed him in front of me, I avoid eye contact with him and acted as if I saw nothing.

"I'm sorry, love. Please don't be angry with me." Mint stated, she took my chair and sat next to Gemini.

Gemini doesn't pay attention to her because his eyes is all on me, Mint looked suspicious when she noticed that his lover was astonish by me, so she also glance at me from head to toe.

"P' Gem. I'll go first, I still have class." Fourth's disregarding.

Fourth quickly turned his back and walked out of the house, Gemini was about to stand up to follow him but Mint pulled him back and made him sit down.

"Love, let's talk first." Mint's plead,

Gemini has skeptical and worries about Fourth's feeling until he can no longer glance to Fourth, Mint criticizes his boyfriend's face as if she noticed that he really wants to chase Fourth.

Fourth's POV:

I hop into my car and I clutch the steering wheel firmly, I pinch my nose and closed my eyes so that my tears wouldn't fall even though I was already crying.

It was like a ton of gravel had hit me so hard, I felt something a heavy thing in my chest like what the fuck? Do I needed to see that? I expected that because kissing is natural in a relationship, but I wasn't ready.

"Fourth, what the hell! You don't need to feel this. You're just married by law!" I look like a fool convincing himself to not hurt.

I added, "You don't have the right to feel this way, you're only married on paper! And you don't have anything else to hold on to Gemini other than his duty that your dad gave to him!" I scold myself.

I start my engine and left straight away.

Author's POV:

"What are you doing here?" Gemini asked when he stare at Mint

"I just want to make amends, I'm sorry for what happened yesterday." she frowned,

"You didn't even say you were going?"

"Is it necessary? I came here all the time. Why? Don't you want me to see the two of you? He's Fourth, right?" Mint glared suspiciously.

"That's not my point! My point is why did you disrespect him? What you did was so insensitive." Gemini said with a high tone.

He added, "like that. You sitting next to me, obviously we were eating but you took his chair... Please show some respect to Fourth, respect my childhood friend, respect my husband!"

Gemini stood up and took his plate and Fourth's plate to put aside in the sink, he lost his mood at that time so his reaction to Mint was just can't explain.

Mint's POV:

I had a doubt when I saw the irritatio and resentful expression on his face as if he was still defending Fourth, as if Gemini was giving me a hint about his overreaction.

I don't want to overthink that there is something between the two of them, but suddenly the wind blew differently at that time, I love Gemini and I admit that I insulted Fourth because I want him to see that Gemini loved me more than him.

Is it wrong to love Gemini? after all he's my boyfriend. I have the right to do with him what I want to do, Gemini have an assurance in the first place. That's why I'm still holding on, that they only got married because of the condition of Fourth's father.

Fourth's POV:

I parked in the school parking lot, I got out of the car and walked to the campus using the phone.

I didn't realize that some students were pacing as if they were in a hurry, they accidentally bumped into my shoulder and caused me to fall my phone on the ground.

I picked up my phone and I heard a group of women who seemed to be thrilled and excited as they talked.

"Mark is here at school!!" the student scream so excited.

"I want to see him badly!!" a student girl added.

I was dumbfounded by what I heard, I glanced at the female students as they in a hurry.

"Mark? Pakin?" I wondered.

I followed the students who were running and seems to be thrilled until I reached the school field, there's many students were gathering and shouting with excitement.

As I approached the crowd, I caught a glimpse of the cameras, staffs, and lighting used for shooting.

I saw Mark sat in the shade of the tent while reading a script in the folder, Mark looked up and whispered in the air as if he was memorizing his speech but he accidentally saw me and smirked.

I was dumbfounded by his dirty smirk which made the student around me turning their heads to me, after a while the girls started screaming when Mark stood up and walked to the crowd.

"Don't!" I speak without a sound, I warn him.

As Mark approached me, I could feel the trigger and nervousness, but I just act normal while the students staring and filming us.

"Didn't you say that you're not my fans." Mark teased me as he was stand close in front of me.

"What are you doing?" I try hard to smile even though I'm annoyed.

The students started capturing pictures of the two of them while talking, the interaction between the two quickly spread on the page of the Chulalongkorn University newsfeed.

Various comments spread throughout the page, most of the students were shocked and incredulous by the picture of the two. They also criticized a picture of Mark patting Fourth's head while beaming.

"Is that Fourth Nattawat, from Law Department?"

"I can't!!!!"

"Our Fourth is lucky!!"

"Is the Fourth?"

"Admit it or not, they're a match."

"Fourth is so damn lucky."

I can't help but feel a little bit awkward in the entirr campus after they spread the picture of Mark with me, even my friends teasing me with him.

"There's nothing between us, I just met him after we hung out." explained Fourth.

"Huh?" Ford and Prom's clueless tone with a same expression.

"Oh, I almost got rob that night, luckily he passed by that road and he save me." Fourth's explanation.

"What if destiny really sent him for you to meet, what if-

What if I smack you." I warn him, I was ready to throw punch at Prom.

I added, "Destiny your ass!"

In less than a few minutes, my phone rang on the table, I looked at the screen and noticed that the two were also peeking so I hurriedly picked up my phonr.

"Hey, who's that?" Prom's pointed suspicious gaze.

"Nothing." I refuse to tell.

"It might be Mark, invite him to dinner." Ford teases.

"Nosy!" I look so irritated.

"Aw."

After a while my phone rang again, I immediately looked at it and saw Gemini's name appear on the screen.

I stared at the two because I was hesitating whether to answer his call in front of them.

At night, I was walking alone on campus to go home, and Mark suddenly appeared in my path. I turn my head around and check if there's a student.

"N' Fourth."

"P' Mark. What are you doing here, maybe someone will see us." Fourth's apprehensive voice.

"We just finished the shooting, your classes were dismissed a while ago. Why are you still here?" Mark asked me.

"I was looking for a book in the library so I went out late." I stated.

"Are you on your way home? I'll come with you. Wait, I'll just going to say goodbye to my manager."

"No, I have a car. I'll go first." I refused him.

"Oh alright, be careful." Mark nod.

"Mark!!" his manager call him in the distance.

He left me and went back to the tent, and I continued walking to the parking lot.

As I walked closer to my car, I rummaged through my bag to get the key but I couldn't find anything. I searched the car key in my bag but I couldn't see it.

"Oh, where are my car keys?" I frustrated said,

I peek throughout the window to look inside the my car, and I saw my key on the driver's seat. I tried to open my car door but it was locked.

"Ai' Shia Fourth! You dumbass." I blame myself.

Just a few minutes later Gemini suddenly called me, I immediately picked up my phone and answer his call.

"Hello." I put my phone to my ear.

"Where are you?" A cold voice.

"I'm still in campus, but I about to leave." I replied cluelessly.

"Why haven't you come out yet?" his thrifty voice.

"Leave it there, I'm right here at the school gate." Gemini's voice was not in the mood.

"Huh?!" A shocked voice of mine,

I was about to say something but he suddenly end the call, I had no choose but leave the school and just in time I saw Gemini's car in the distance.

"P', can I left my car here, can I will come back tomorrow?" I pleaded with the guard.

"What happened to your car?" the guard asked me.

"I left the key inside my car, the doors are locked so I can't opened." Fourth replied.

"Is that it, okay."

"Thank you." I politely answered.

When I entered the car, the first things I saw is Gemini's fierce look with a deadly stares, I sit in the front seat and wondering if I had done something wrong to him.

"Gem!!" I yelled when Gemini start his engine and drove the car so fast, as if I'm in a racing.

While we were in the middle of the road, I can't help but glance at him because of his intimidating looks while he looking straight away at the road.

"Gem, do you have a problem?" I asked him in worried.

"It's already 8pm, why did you stay up late at school?" he said with a dating voice.

"I looked for a book in the library-

"Is it really because of the book or because of Mark?" he said without a brace.

"Gem."

"Did you think that the pictures of you together with Mark wouldn't reached me. Have you known each other for a long time?"

"No." I quickly said.

I sigh, "I'll explain Gem."

Gemini didn't answer, but glanced at Fourth instead.

"I only met him when my friends and I were hanging out. He saved me when I almost had almost indangered." I tried to explain.

"Why didn't you tell me right away?" Gemini asked calmly.

"Huh?! Do you have to? You're always focused on Mint. you don't care about me, so what's the point?" Fourth question his loyalty for me.

"I have rights because I'm your husband!!" he said instantly, which leads me in silence.

I was speechless when Gemini shouted at me in anger, I was unable to speak for a few minutes because of I stupor at him.

"Why are you acting like that? And what's the matter, If I know him? Why are you messing with me, I didn't mess your relationship with Mint." I defense myself and question him.

"I know Mark, he will do anything to get what he wants! He won't approach you if he's not interested in you." Gemini blurt out in upset, he jump into conclusion.

I grin, "Luckily that he's interested in me, but my own husband is not."

He braked the car on the side of the road due to anger.

"Get down." he stated in calm tone.

"Gem," I please,

"Call Mark. And tell him to send you at home." his calmly said, but he gave me a death stare.

"Are you fucking serious-

"I said get out!!" he raises his at me, which makes my body startled. My eyes filled with a tears and I feel genuine fear.

I slightly nod and got out of the car with slamming the door shut, and Gemini drove straight and left me on the side of the road.

I gaze at the road and hoping that there's a taxi passing by but nothing, I would have booked a taxi but there was no signal in that area.

Not until the heavy rain poured down with a strong lighting, I'm not familiar with a place so I did not know where to take shelter, there were no trees or sheds in the area.

I didn't do anything but run because the rain was too strong, my uniform soaked and my body was shivering and freezing from the cold wind. I just took shelter in a convinent store roof while standing outside and waiting for the rain to stop.

"Gemini, where are you? Please come back." I cry hopeless.

When Gemini got home, he saw Fourth's bag and the book on the car seat. He carried it into the house, and walk like nothing happened as if he didn't care about Fourth's whereabouts, if he was okay, or if he was safe.

Fourth POV:

The heavy rain continued to pour, I was staring into nothing as I was walking on the gutter of the road like a withered vegetable and pale body.

When I arrived at the gate of our house the guard opened the door for me and let me in.

"Mr. Fourth, what happened to you? Why didn't you go home with Mr. Gemini." the guard spoke with worried tone, he approached me and held an umbrella for me.

He accompanied me until we reached the main door of the house, while he was yelling and calling Gemini's name.

When the guard sheltered me in front of the house, he also left immediately. And Gemini came out.

He approached me with a daring face and step closer to stand in front of me.

"No matter how much you hate me, I will never interested anyone, but you." My voice cracked.

Little by little, I feel something weird. My eyelids gradually closing and my vision getting blurry, until I fell to the floor and fainted.

"Ai' Fourth! Fot, Fourth!" he called my name, filled of fears. His voice became blurry in my ears, until my body have out.

I quickly lifted him with all my strength like a newly wed and take him inside our house.
