His thoughtless eyes

˖. ݁𐙚🦷

Tong had always considered himself a quite good looking person. That was until the girl who he thought liked him wasn't a girl at all. It was just a guy using him to help his friend. It had made him think he wasn't good enough for a date.

˖𓍢ִ. ݁𐙚...

That was years ago back when he was still in university. Back when he could goof around with his friends and could still end up passing and graduating with honours. He loved what he did. Music. It was what defined life for him.

Art came in different forms everywhere eventually finds the one that most means to them. This was his and obviously his talent.

Even after majoring in jazz, he continued to explore and connect helping him grow into a producer of many popular songs of this time.

He heard a notification coming from his pocket.

Gun: p'tong remember that restaurant that recently opened up that I was talking to you about.

It was gun. One of the members of the pop bands he had made music for. During one of their recordings gun had convinced him after weeks of pleading to give his number. Finally giving in tong decided to let the kid have his way. He was only 3 years younger but still had that bright bubble of curiosity within him that tong liked.

Tong: yeah why?

Gun: do you wanna try it with me?

Tong obviously realised that gun was asking him out as the younger one had already let him be known about his feelings.

Tong: fine. But only if you don't consider this a date.

Gun:  aww you caught me. Still thanks phi meet you there at 2 for lunch tomorrow.

Tong sighed as he put his phone down on his recording table. He had just reached home . He has made a total of 3 drafts of song but, he could not come with any lyrics. Maybe he needs a break, hence why he agreed to go to that restaurant.

He had pelted down a few more beats and then decided to get ready for dinner with gun. This was his first time eating out in a while as he noticed how messy his room was from ordering in. He took a long ass shower from how musty he was after overworking himself. Actually feeling great after it all he continued to get ready as this was his first time in a long time going to hangout with someone, excluding his meetings at work and the times he met qin and Kim.

They had even started pestering him about the fact he was the only single one among them.

Nana purred as she passed through in between his legs. He started to head out.

When tong reached there he had noticed it was quite a fancy one. This statement he would not have made if it was around a decade back as he was born with a silver spoon. Qin and Kim was the reason he could experience many things in life. Even though they had separated after graduation, they still made time in their busy schedule to still meet up. He valued this friendship.

" A table for one sir?" The kind young lady at the entrance had asked. "No, I have come here with an appointment with Khun'Gun " tong replied to which she said to follow her to a table. Lined with gold and floral themes the restaurant had antique furniture and beauty lined everywhere.

The lady had taken him to a private room.   Typical of Gun to to do to avoid his fans and weary eyes of paparazzi.

"P'tong, you made it" the younger said with the most exited expression. "Hey, how have you been" they continued to catch up as it had been a while since they had met as gun was in tour as if recently.

His group was quite a successful one even helping Tong grow in the industry.

Tong wasn't really a fan of any form of art other than music growing but he has really learned to appreciate and find the beauty of the ones that people put their stories into.

They are always beautiful in their own way, even if the one who sees it doesn't understand.

As time went by he realised how much he had in common with the younger one. He did know how he had been interested in Tong for a while as it wasn't the first time Gun had tried to spend time alone with him. Tong had only went with it to remain polite and had even rejected him multiple times. Another reason he continued to meet with Gun was he was too much like his younger brother, Tim.

As time passed and the dishes had been cleared Gun looked at him sadly and said-

"Phi, I am doing to the states soon, and I'll probably not come back for a few months"

He frowned and Tong tried cheering him up by saying he would still stay in contact with him.

"When are you leaving?"

"Next week Monday". His frown grew deeper into his face. It was in three days.

"You know what, I'll buy you ice cream after this ."

Almost as if he found out the world wasn't going to end his eyes lit up. It's quite easy to make him happy.

-

As Gun stood up to leave and he followed, he noticed someone as the door opened, he couldn't see his face, but felt a sense of familiarity with them. Who is that. He thought to himself but once again paid no mind because of Guns immediate pleading.

"Phi, come onnnn"

They had went to a nearby store named two scoops. A popular ice cream spot that a popular internet couple had made famous, it had went from a hole in the wall to a almost exquisite and expensive place. Oh and was it mentioned the internet couple was Qin and Duang.

As they reached the counter, Gun ordered a cotton candy cone while he looked around and ended up picking his usual.

"Lemon cheesecake" they both said at the same time.

Surprised, Tong turned around to see a short sparkly boba eyed guy.

He has the same thoughtless looking eyes.
