Gun tried avoiding Jaylerr the entire day but the latter seemed to be more determined to express his feelings as he tailed Gun all day long. Gun didn't really mind for he knew that he would just get tired of this setup and eventually leave him alone but Jaylerr went as far as buying him lunch and flowers.

"What are these for?"

He called Jaylerr over the phone demanding for an answer as to why his table was filled with various types of flowers. There was a bouquet of different types of roses and another bouquet of sunflowers.

"Oh, those roses. They're for you. I told you I'm gonna start courting you," Jaylerr answered and Gun was sure he was smiling on the other line.

"You don't have to do this. And how did you know I love sunflowers?" he asked as he picked up the bouquet of sunflowers and smelled them. He had always loved them, for they were the first flowers Off had given him.

"Huh? What sunflowers? I only sent you a bunch of roses."

Gun froze in the middle of his flower smelling session. He felt his heart pound faster as he thought of so much possibilities yet uncertainties of Off giving him the bunch of flowers he was holding.

"I have to go, bye," Gun quickly ended the call and placed the flowers back on his table. A small card dropped and that was his answer. Scrawled on the small card was Off's scrawny handwriting. He was sure of it as he had seen Off's handwriting multiple times when they studied together way back in University days.

Have a good day, love. May your day be brilliant as these sunflowers.

xoxo,

Off

"What are you up to, Off?"

———

Gun looked tinier as he carried the bouquets of flowers, one in each arm as he went out of the building that afternoon. The bouquets were so big that they almost covered his view as he walked slowly towards the revolving door. He actually had no plans of bringing them home but his officemates kept on teasing him so to stop their running mouths, he had no choice but to carry them home.

He breathed a sigh of relief as he was able to pass through the revolving door, his forehead was sweating and his arms numb. He was dying to wipe the sweat on his face but both of his arms were occupied so he just continued to the taxi bay. He remembered Off telling him that he'd fetch him, but he didn't really hold on to his promise.

He was about to hail the nearby taxi when two cars suddenly stopped in front of him. He looked alternately at Off and Jaylerr who got off their respective cars at the same time. Off was wearing his usual office suit, his hair fixed to one side while Jaylerr was wearing a white shirt and jeans, his hair fixed in a more informal way. Gun couldn't help but notice the differences and similarities between the two. They were dressed differently but at the same time, they looked similar.

"Gun." "Gun."

Gun watched in disbelief as the two approached him, both offering a hand to help him with what he was carrying.

"Can you back off. I came first," Jaylerr hissed at Off as the latter slapped his hand away from Gun's.

"I came here first for your information," Off argued and glared at Jaylerr.

Being at the center, Gun couldn't help but be confused with the two, both by their actions and their looks. They looked like twins arguing in front of him. Their eyes getting even smaller as they fought each other through their glares, shooting daggers with their stares.

Gun rolled his eyes and sneakily left the two who were both oblivious that he had already ridden the car he was about to hail earlier.

5 years ago. Graduation day.

They shouted in delight as they held hands and jumped into the water together. Off wrapped his arms around Gun's waist and hugged him from the back.

"Oh come on lovebirds! Don't make us envious of your relationship you fuckers!" Tay shouted as Gun screamed when Off dropped him into the water.

"Then you should have accepted New's confession, you idiot! You would have been hugging someone, too!" Off replied as he splashed Tay with seawater.

"I told you I'm not into men!"

"Oh really? Then don't come to us saying that you have fallen in love with a guy because I'm sure someday you're gonna eat your words!" Arm laughed as he watched the scorn look on Tay's face.

"Can you just fuck off. If there's someone who's gonna end up like Off, it's you Arm! And I swear, with all the creatures in this sea as our witnesses, I'll shave my hair if I ever fall in love with a guy!"

"Okay it's done deal! You heard it Off, we're gonna shave Tay's hair someday!"

Their laughs reverberated in the area, with only them occupying Tay's private resort, they had no inhibitions as they continued teasing one another.

———

Gun watched as the sun slowly sank behind the horizon. After their graduation ceremony, they immediately took off to Pattaya where Tay's family owned a private resort to celebrate. They planned this day very well, especially how to get away from Mild who seemed to go everywhere Off went. With the four of them  in Off's car, they set out on a three-day trip.

"Hey."

Gun watched as Off sat beside him, in his hand was a long stalk of sunflower.

"Happy graduation day," Off said as he handed him the flower.

Gun smiled and got the flower, smelling it before putting it on his stretched lap.

"I don't have a gift for you though."

"You're about to give me one though."

"Huh?"

Gun's forehead creased, confused with what Off said but his question was answered when Off slowly leaned and claimed his lips. Gun responded to Off's kisses as he wrapped his arms around Off's neck while Off held his waist, rubbing his hands on them. He felt Off slid his hands inside his shirt, his thumbs gently stroking the sides of his hips. Off licked his lower lip and he eventually knew what he wanted. He slowly parted his lips and welcomed Off's intruding tongue. They explored each other's mouths; their tongues fought while their hands continued exploring each other's body. He moaned when Off grazed his left nipple and almost lost his breath when he pinched it.

Off slid off his shirt and the hand on his nipple was replaced by Off's hot mouth, his tongue flicking his nipple and it brought waves of sensation to his body that made him moan as he grabbed Off's hair.

"Uunngg, P'Oooff."

He felt Off stopped and he protested for he wanted more.

"What did you call me?" Off asked as he stared at Gun's flustered face. His hand was on his nipples now, pinching them as he asked the question.

"P'Oooff."

"Are you sure that's how you should call me?" Off twisted his nipples and he almost cursed when he felt another wave of sensation through his system.

"L-looove," Gun's cheeks turned redder as he evaded Off's gaze.

"Good," Off replied as he removed the flower on Gun's lap and place it carefully on the side. He then grabbed Gun and made him straddle him. They both moaned as they felt their aching members collide with their pants on.

They continued kissing, fervently and passionately. Gun bit his lower lip as Off's kisses went down to his neck then to his chest then back to his nipples. His stomach contracted the moment he felt Off's hands going down. Soon he heard the sound of his pants unzipping and a pair of warm hands wrapped around his length.

"L-love are you sure. Some-somebody might see us."

"Don't worry. This is a private place, we're the only ones around here."

"But Tay and Arm, the helpers-"

"Shhh. Don't worry. I'm sure they wouldn't disturb us."

Off once again claimed Gun's lips while his hand went up and down Gun's hard member. Gun felt his body shiver as Off pressed the tip of his length and squeezed it lightly.

"Hhnnnnggg. L-looovveee, shiiiittt."

Gun burried his head in Off's neck as the latter kept pumping his length. He bit his neck as he felt another wave in his body before he exploded in Off's hand.

"Hnnnngg!"

"Love, I-I wanna be inside you."

Gun shivered upon hearing Off's heavy voice.

"But, but it might hurt," Gun replied and burried his face even more, shy of what he just said.

"I promise it won't. Will you let me?"

Gun hesitated but then eventually nodded. Off then slid off his pants and underwear making him completely naked in front of him.

Off then unzipped his own pants and got something from his pocket.

"Lu-lube? What the heck Off, you're walking around with a lube in your pocket?" Gun exclaimed in utter disbelief.

But Off just chuckled.

"We will never know when we're gonna need it."

"Are we seriously doing this by the beach?" He scanned the area for he was afraid someone might see them. The beach was already dark but it was slightly illuminated by the lights from afar.

"Uhuh. Don't worry, we'll also do it in our bed too."

"You're totally crazy!" Gun exclaimed before Off claimed his lips again. Off then put an adequate amount of lube in his hand reached for his back and Gun almost lost his senses when Off inserted a finger into his hole stretching his muscles.

"It, it hurts," Gun cried as Off moved his finger inside him.

Off nibbled his neck to divert his attention. He inserted another finger stretching him even more.

"It's gonna get better later. Don't worry."

After a little while, Off inserted another one. Now three fingers were already inside him making him squirm on top of Off.

He felt Off stretched him even more and his breath hitched when he felt him move his fingers inside him. The feeling was foreign and painful but it felt good. He gasped for air as Off stretched his hole even more, putting more force this time.

"Hnnnggg.." He couldn't help but moan as the pain was starting to be replaced with pleasure, sending thousands of sensations through his body.

Off then withdrawed his fingers and Gun heard the sound of a foil tearing. Off was putting a condom on his own length.

"I guess you're ready."

Gun bit his lips and burried his nails on Off's shoulders as Off lifted his bottom and inserted his length in him, fully filling him to the brim. He felt Off's length inside him and that made him delirious both from the pain and the pleasure that he felt as his insides were filled with Off's pulsating member.

"Shiiit. It fucking hurts, Ooooff."

A tear escaped Gun's eyes as he felt a sting in his butthole. They stayed still for a moment, letting Gun adjust to the foreign object inside his body.

"I'm, I'm sorry."

Off claimed his lips and it somehow diverted his attention. They continued exploring each other's mouths. When he felt that the pain had subsided, he then slowly moved above Off. It was still painful but his kisses somehow helped in making him forget the pain.

Off then held his hips, guiding him as he slowly moved up and down Off's length. He watched as Off's length disappeared into his hole and he couldn't help but let out a long moan as he sank deeper and clenched his butt around Off's length. He arched his back and held on to Off's shoulders as he moved faster above him, with Off still guiding his hips. The sound of their skin slapping against each other only added to the desire he was feeling at the moment.

"Hnnngg.. Oooffff."

"Shiitt. Hhnnggg. Guunn. Hnngg."

Soon a pair of warm hands wrapped around his length and he couldn't help but curse as Off jerked him off while he was being filled by his length.

"Shit! Oohhh. Hnnngg."

He closed his eyes and felt their every movement especially the warm hands that were wrapped around his length. He grabbed Off's shoulders tighter and dug his nails deeper. He was sure they were gonna leave a mark but that was the least of his concern as he pumped in and out Off's length.

After several thrusts and with Off's hands on his length, Gun felt his body shiver as another wave of pleasure consumed his entire system. He burried his head in Off's neck and bit his lips as his toes curled when he finally made his release. He also felt Off's body shivering underneath him signifying that he also made his.

Off then let go of his length and wrapped his arms around his waist.

"Shit. Never thought I'd ever experience sex by the beach," Gun joked earning a laugh from Off. Their bodies still connected and it somehow made Gun fluster knowing that Off was still inside him.

"Never did I, too. Want another round?" Off teased. Gun lightly punched him on the chest.

"Are you crazy??" He exclaimed but his protests were useless as Off claimed his lips again and he mentally cursed when he felt Off's hard length in his hole.

———

Shit. It fucking hurts.

That was only thing that Gun could ever think of when he woke up. After doing three rounds by the beach, yes three, Off had to literally carry him because his legs were already weak. He thought he was gonna be able to rest when they arrived in their room, but Off was insatiable. They did another round in their bed, and now Gun couldn't help but curse when he felt his butthole sting as he sat up in their bed.

"Shit. I'm gonna fucking kill you Off!" He exclaimed as he grabbed the pillow and hit Off on the face.

But Off only stirred in his sleep.

"Urghh! I hate you!"

"I love youuuu," Off smiled as he hugged the pillow Gun used to hit him. "How are you feeling?"

"It fucking hurts you idiot! I swear I'm not doing it again with you! You're a beast!"

"I can actually do more than that if you want me too. Next time you wouldn't be able to walk," Off winked which made Gun's face even redder.

"Shut the fuck up!"

Gun slowly got off the bed. He badly needed a shower for he felt sticky. He was halfway to the bathroom door when Off scooped him up.

"Hey! What are you doing?!"

"Let's shower together. Let me help you."

"Urrghh! You better not do anything Off!"

"We'll see about that," Off winked and grinned before entering the bathroom.

———

Gun flinched the moment his bottom hit the cushion of the seat when they were having breakfast. He saw Off looked at him like he was checking how he was. His body was also aching, not quite a surprise considering all the action they did last night. He gave Off a reassuring look and smiled at him.

"You rascals, where were you last night. I knocked on your room for dinner but you did not answer," Tay asked as he joined them at the table.

"We, uh, we went out. You know, to breathe the sea breeze to relax. Yeah, we went to the beach to relax," Off quickly answered on their defense. Gun just smiled but Tay flashed an amused look on his face.

"Oh really. I passed by your room actually and I thought I heard some... activities shall I say," Tay added as he poured himself a glass of orange juice.

Gun, who was about to put a spoonful of rice in his mouth, froze midway. Off just nervously laughed and sipped his coffee.

"What activities you bastard. We went to bed early as we were tired from all the traveling we did."

"Oh. I didn't know you moan in your sleep, Off."

Off, Gun, and Arm all together choked on their food as they heard Tay's words. Tay on the other hand just sipped his juice ever so sluggishly and Gun was sure he saw him smile behind the glass.

"But I guess you were just...having a nightmare, I suppose, for you to be moaning and screaming in your...sleep."

"Come on, Tay. Stop teasing them. Let's eat already, shall we?" Arm interrupted as he saw how red Off's and Gun's faces were.

"Okaaay. I was just narrating what I heard last night," Tay singsonged as he started eating his food.

Gun could only nervously munch his food as he threw a glance at Off who was glaring at Tay.

───── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ─────

Gun sighed as he finished taking out the large bouquets of flowers from the taxi. He wiped off his sweat after paying the driver. He was exhausted to say the least. There he was standing by the road with bouquets of flowers in each arm and he couldn't help but think about what happened earlier.

Jaylerr was a good friend of his. They got close actually when Jaylerr was scouted as the main actor of the script he wrote. As an actor, he was quite good considering all the prominent actors in the industry. He was even hesitant to work with him for he knew that he was Off's cousin and as much as possible he didn't wanna be associated with people related to Off. But he couldn't refuse the offer of the director.

Their fake relationship was actually Jaylerr's idea. He didn't wanna give in to his idea at first, but he was somehow able to convince him, saying it would help him get over Off and at the same time get even with him.

But now he was actually regretting his decision. Aside from the fact that Off was acting weird, Jaylerr was making him lose his sanity by breaking their deal.

He sighed and was about to enter the building when someone grabbed him and he felt his world spin. He muttered a curse as he lost his balance and closed his eyes tightly as he was sure that he was gonna hit the pavement but it didn't happen.

He opened his eyes and saw a smiling Off Jumpol who had his arms wrapped around his waist.

"You should have waited for me. I told you I'd pick you," Off pouted his lips indicating that he was sulking.

Gun was about to respond when Off grabbed the bouquet of roses from him and threw it to the side.

"There. You should only be holding mine."

Off said as he planted a soft kiss on Gun's lips.
