Secrets of Midnights

good boy

Two people silently enjoying there drinks.

It's time to get up. But both still sitting down gripping their cups.

"Do you have any other plan now?" Ohm asks taking courage.

Fluke blinks twice and shakes his head "no"

Ohm bites his lower lip "would you mind having a walk with me?" Ohm offers feeling bit scared.

Not because Fluke will refuse it more like Fluke will not like it.

Without thinking too muck Fluke nods "okay. Let's go"

Butterflies those who living inside Ohm's stomach give a fly. Ohm's face light up.

They pay for their coffee and leave the cafe.

Two young male walking next to each other keeping minimum distance between them.

They stopped front of a park. There many young people doing their own thing. Some walking there dogs, some playing with there kids.

"There, Let's go" Ohm points Fluke to go another side of park.

"Can you do skating?" Ohm asks Fluke excitedly looking at few boys and girls skating.

"No" Fluke give a straight no. "You?" he asks.

"Yes . I do. I love skating. Me and Earth learn it while we were little. We practice here every monday. Sometimes in weekend" Ohm gladly shares his story. "Can you stay here and see me skating? I will end it shortly." Ohm says blinking, smiling softly showing dimples of his cheeks.

Fluke heart soften seeing this. But he kept his rough face straight "okay. Do. But you didn’t brought your... " he looks at Ohm's hand searching the board.

"Oh" Ohm scratches his neck "i can borrow someone's here" he smiles running toward a group of people asking for a board.

"This boy so... So cute" Fluke mutters.

All he thought he gonna go out in cafe and have a iced matcha peacefully then return home. But here. He met Ohm now with him, he is in park. Usually he don't like hanging out with people. He barely go out and if do with Kao or alone. Walking in park with someone is so rare. It's actually first time he doing this. He is not hating it at all. Ohm being cheerful, bubbly making his heart melt every second.

In minutes Ohm come back with a board in his hand.

He waves it front of Fluke. He happily set the board and start.

Fluke looks at Ohm's move in amuse. Ohm looks very professionally skating. He is very impressed by it. Even he knows almost nothing about staking, he loving it very much.

Finishing skating Ohm comes running toward Fluke.

Without knowing Fluke smiles.

"You looks so pretty while smiling" Ohm says smiling widely. It's his first time seeing Fluke smiling.

"You did well" Fluke says.

Ohm panting hard keeping his hands on knees "really? I was a good boy?" Ohm asks.

"Yes, Good boy" Fluke says ruffling Ohm's hair, patting softly.

Fluke stops suddenly.

Fluke realise what he have done. He quickly removes his hand from Ohm's hair.

Ohm stands properly gulping. He didn’t realise he and Fluke went very close for few moment. It's like another part of them were behaving. 

Both stands awkwardly. What break Ohm's heart is Fluke said farther nothing just walk away.

He feels so hopeless when Fluke turns back and start walking fast. He didn’t look back at all. He said nothing.

Ohm near to cry. he bites his lip to prevent himself crying in public.

..............

Without any 'hi' 'I'm back' or anything Fluke runs to his room.

By this he earn few confused looks from Mrs. Devi and Boun who were downstairs.

"What happened with him?" Mrs. Devi worriedly asks.

"Who knows. I will asks later. He need 'me' time now I guess" Boun reassure his mother.

..........

Fluke shut the door close angrily.

"You did well"

"really? I was a good boy?"

"Yes, Good boy"

He shakes his head to throw away thoughts. His eyes glitches red.

He end up shattering in floor, feeling weak. Remembering Ohm's dimpled soft smiled face he chuckles softly.

"You looks so pretty while smiling"

Fluke sigh deeply "I'm no good for you boy" he mutters.

.........

"Umm what happened? You looks...... So bad" Earth rised his brows confusedly staring at Ohm who standing at door like a teenage boy got slapped front of whole school. Disaster, broken.

"Nothing" Ohm sniffs rubbing his nose with sleeve of hoodie.

He passes Earth and directly went to his room.

"Wait Ohm hey...."

Ohm shut the door on Earth's face.

"Weird. What wrong with him?" he massage his temple.

Biting his nails he sat on couch. Trying to connect dots for minutes he feels hopeless. There no way he can know if Ohm doesn’t open up. Not pressuring his brain much Earth come up with idea.

Living together since birth he knows pretty a lot about Ohm.

Ohm frequently used to argue with his dad. Ohm used to show all strong front of him or his dad but alone he used to feel down too.

Those times Earth used to make something Ohm like and try to cheer him up.

He thought of doing something like that now too.

.........

"Knock knock. Open the door" Earth knocks Ohm's door with a cheerful voice. "Ohmmy open the door. I made your favourite ice cream thingy"

After waiting for hours Earth think of doing it.

Getting no response from Ohm, Earth sadly looks down.

As Ohm can't stand cold food but wants to eat ice cream, Ohm ate Ice cream in a process. He melt the ice cream in room temperature then add extra chocolate and other toppings. That's what Earth did now. Thinking maybe it will help.

He sadly knocks the door weakly. "Ohmmy... Please let me know you okay or not. You know I'm always here." Earth sniffs.

He is not liking it at all. He hates seeing people in hurt. "You are all I have" Earth says in sobs.

Still getting no answer Earth about to leave.

But then the door cracked.

"Hey" Ohm waves weakly. His tone sounds very weak.

"Hey" Earth waves back.

"Can I have the ice cream?" Ohm asks pointing the ice cream bowl in Earth's hand.

Earth chuckles wiping his tears "yes you can"

"Let's have ice cream together" Ohm offers. Earth nods.
