Wingman Gone Wrong | LeoFiat

"You came!" Fiat hums in response to Leo's exclamation. Chan gives him an acknowledging nod and he sighs as he adjusts the shirt that they all matched with. Up until a a few days ago, Leo has been talking Fiat up for joining them at the 'Flower Boy' stall. To help raise money for a gift to the seniors, a mix of students from lower years have come together to make a cafe with 'Flower Boy' waiters and baristas. A personal vendetta hinted by the seniors. It proves to be counter productive as the seniors crowd and linger around during the year end festival.

"P'May, you and your friends are funding your year's present by doing this," Chan groans while he caters to their table. Fiat chuckles before turning to his own table and placing their drinks and sandwiches before them. He smiles awkwardly at them as they completely ignore their order and stare at him. An arm around his shoulder startles him and he turns with relief to find Leo. Leo grabs their attention and Fiat slips away. This happens multiple times during their shift and Fiat silently cheers as Chan lets them know that they are free. "Thanks for helping guys. I won't forget this."

Leo pulls Fiat with him, drawing unwanted attention to them and drags him towards the games after buying a few snacks for them to eat. The two disappeared within the crowd and slowly, Leo makes Fiat relax as they spend their time together. They laugh and goof around at the ring toss and Fiat leans into Leo from laughing too hard. Leo is using his long arms as an advantage causing the students working the stand to make new rules against him. As a result, Leo messes around and tosses the small rings in funny ways. It makes Fiat laugh so much that he feels the need to relieve himself. "Hey, I'll be back. I gotta go to the restroom."

Leo nods and Fiat slips away through the crowds. He finishes his business and washes his hands. Just as he exits the restroom he hears some girls talking in their restroom. Leo's and his name gets mentioned and he freezes.

"Leo's so hot, but why is that guy always with him? Leo doesn't eat with his friends either during lunch. Does that Fiat guy have something on him?"

"I don't know, but Leo is with him again today. He seemed happy."

"I seem happy when I am with my boyfriend. Am I? Of course not. It's called acting. I just want  to be able to fawn over Leo without seeing that ugly-"

Hands over his ears, cut off the rest of the sentence. Fiat looks up before turning into him and hugging him. He gets pulled far away from the restrooms and he questions why people talk like this. When they stop, Fiat puts on a smile that only earns him am unbelieving look back. "I'm fine. How long were you there, anyway?"

"Long enough to know that those words do not need to be said and that you don't need to hear any of that," Leo huffs. They were between buildings, just outside the festival grounds. Leo leans against one of the tables and Fiat sighs with a shrug. "No, no. Don't give me that, Fiat. You really don't need to be hearing these things."

"Well, you really haven't been eating with your friends. Don't they ask?" Fiat asks standing in front of Leo. Leo gives a small smirk and reaches out for Fiat's hand. Fiat looks down at their joined hands and shoots his eyes up as he gets pulled forward to settle between Leo's legs. He puts a hand onto Leo's chest to push away, but Leo just keeps a firm hand on him and gives a small whine as he shakes his head. "Leo, we're in public."

"So, what? I am serious about my intentions, Fiat. I really have been enjoying spending my time with you. Haven't you been feeling the same?" Leo asks with a hopeful look in his eyes. Fiat bites his lip as he stares into his eyes and sighs. He nods his head and a wide smile rises onto Leo's face. "Be with me, Fiat? For real?"

"But.." Fiat has no excuse to deny Leo except for his own insecurities. Leo notices and pulls Fiat even closer as his hands hold his waist. "I'm scared."
