In that moment, all Vincent could think of was 'maybe it's nothing like what I'm thinking about, maybe he doesn't meant it romantically but it feels that way. What am I going to get a rival and he is a friend too. No, nothing like that it's just my thought"
"Hahahahahahahaha you got me, that was a nice joke. See I just shed a tear because of your joke.." Vincent said as he wipe away the drop of tears that was at the corner of his eyes but looking at Charles it seems he was damn serious and he was.
"I'm not joking, I really am going to pursue him" he answered, his tone serious and indifferent. "You are going to pursue him, is he career or what a goal…hahahahaha" Vincent said trying to make this turn into a joke. And besides Charles doesn't know Jae Won likes men so he thought.
"Hahahaha…..that is a good one there. You got me. But I meant I'm going to pursue him till he becomes my boyfriend and I'm not taking no for an answer".
Vincent, ".....*nervous"
"But how sure are you he like….." Vincent was rudely cut off before he could complete his sentence which was so obvious Charles had to make sure he knows exactly what he wanted to say.
"….that he likes men? Yeah I do know he likes men and so am I and we would make a great couple, don't we?" He asked checking any sign of reactions or emotions but he seemed indifferent. 'Doesn't he likes him? I thought he kissed him first but…' Charles thought.
"This would definitely be interesting like the real housewives" he muttered to himself. "You two would look great as a couple" Vincent said while he clenched his fists trying to stay calm. Only the heaven knows what kind of calmness they poured on Vincent for him to stay calm.
He clenched his fist so tightly his knuckles turned white and almost blood was about to seep through from his tightly pressed palms.
I bet if it could speak it would be begging for it's life right at the moment but Charles had to busrst his bubble further by asking about his girlfriend.
"How is your pretty girlfriend? But bro, you sure knows how to to choose a beautiful lady. I would have ask you for tips but I already have someone I want so I think I'm gonna pass on that" he said and all this while Vincent tightened his fist, his IQ almost dropping to the lowest level and there was no way he could have stay calm which he was ready to lay out his anger
"You..." he said as he raised his fist that was clenched tighter toward Charles's face almost about to punch him till he see colors and rainbows.
"Vincent!!!! What are you doing and what are you doing here? How did you know his address?" Jae Won asked. Jae Won who was waiting for the student to come back was still outside doing God knows what.
After waiting for a while, Jae Won decided to go check out what was keeping him late only for him to come across the scene where Vincent was about to hit Charles and the most important question was why was he here?
Jae Won walked straight to Charles touching every part of his body like a pervert to check if he wasn't hurt but this scene was not in terms with Vincent.
"Ahem…. Jae…. I came to pick you…." but his sentence was stuck in his throat when he saw the glare Jae Won gave him. He immediately felt a sharp pain in his chest and was well aware he didn't like that feeling at all.
"What's wrong with you? Why were you going to hit him. What did he do?" Jae Won threw the questions at him leaving no space for an answer.
"I..I…" but his IQ suddenly drops thus he couldn't say anything not even an excuse to defend himself.
"You know what…I think I'm gonna stay for the night. I will inform mummy about it" Jae Won said making the matter worse for Vincent.
"Huh…but" Vincent went mute when he saw the daggers coming his way. Charles on the other hand whose luck was in abundance today smiled so beautiful he couldn't contain his excitement as he began to stick out his tongue at Vincent.
Vincent who was being teased became irrational "then….I'm going to stay for the night too" he said already passing by them to enter the house Charles had been blocking him from.
Jae Won, "....."
Charles, "*stopped laughing* ....."
"Hell no, that isn't happening" Jae won said as he rushed towards Vincent whose back was facing him but he still didn't turn as he entered the living room and smelled the aromatic atmosphere making it seemed they were in a cooking show with hundred participants.
He only turned to ask what they were cooking only to numb into Jae Won with Jae Won's back tightly held by Vincent from falling. "Easy there tiger, you don't want fall here."
But that's not what was he worried about. He went ahead to vomit his anger out not even a thank you to Vincent for saving him I guess.
"You can't stay here? Leave!!!" Jae Won said already pointing at the door. He wanted to escape from him and here he was stuck with him. All these behaviors keeps strengthening him like he had hope but it wasn't.
The more he tried to stay away from him, the more he gets closer to him so Jae Won was willing to throw him out even if it meant his life.
"Jae come on,even the owner of this house is not even worried only you" Vincent said only for Jae Won to turned to Charles for backup but it turned out to backfired back at him.
"It's okay Jae, this will make it more fun" Charles said ready to pave his way into that hardened chest of Vincent.
Jae Won, "....."
Vincent, "see, that's what I thought. Now I have permission to roam around this place" he said as he began to look around the house like a detective searching for evidence on a crime scene.
Jae Won turned to face Charles who turned away quickly to escape the daggers that was about to befall on him.
"Really, you betrayed me" Jae Won said but Charles waited till Vincent was out of the picture before he explained on his behalf. "I didn't betray you. I can't even imagine it, I know what I'm doing. Please just trust me okay?".
After seconds of silence he responded as if he seriously thought about it "okay. I will trust yo....mmmmm" Jae Won said as he couldn't breathe from all the hugging Charles was giving him.
Jae Won thought it could be nice if he fell for Charles instead. He would at least stood a chance to be his side and would probably feel okay because he likes men like him which was a fifty percent win but here he was falling for a straight guy.
They went back to their cooking and also teaching while Vincent roamed about the house.
He still smelled the aroma that surrounded the house as he couldn't help but cut shot of his excursion for later to come have a look at the kitchen.
He came to meet a scene where Charles was tying up the hair that was been persistent and falling it onto the forehead creating a hindrance as he kept brushing it back but it was not working.
This led him to tie up his hair in a ponytail style and Charles couldn't help as his heart skipped a beat. "What are you two doing?" Vincent asked, his eyes full of jealousy while he still smiled.
Charles who noticed this was more mesmerized by Vincent's behavior 'he sure knows how to hide his jealousy' Charles thought.
"Let me help you guys. I'm a chef… what you guys are cooking Bibimbap" he asked only to met with cold and quiet place only the sound of the sizzling and utensils clanking was heard because no one paid attention to him.
After a few minutes, they managed to complete their cooking session. They had their dinner and made sure they informed Mrs Gladys they would be staying over.
Emelia on the other hand didn't take that well. She was now angry Vincent left her for Jae Won and made the matter worse by not coming home.
She wanted to go there right now but she didn't know the address and a car and she couldn't ask the driver for such a help when he just came back from riding Mr Jonathan around after picking the kids from school.
A few hours later, Charles showed Vincent his room but what Vincent was really curious was where Jae Won would sleep so he asked "which room is Jae Won staying?".
Charles who found this question funny chuckled, "his room? Bro, he is sleeping with me IN.THE.SAME.ROOM" he said the last part of the sentence word by word for Vincent to fully understand.
Vincent, "huh?"
Charles, "you heard me. I said it before I'm not taking no for an answer so I will try every possible thing I can do to make him mine"
