Chapter Text
Here they are. Again. At a bar, courtesy Sky to have him invited here after his break up. Again.
Rain couldn’t believe Sky, making fun of his poor love life. Well not poor because he had many but they never lasted more than a month, two at most and it was really starting to pissed him off. He didn’t want to give up the hope of having someone he could come home to but it was becoming a bit much. And the constant tease of Prapai and Sky on the subject and the reason for the multiple breakup.
Always the same.
Rain was apparently too irresponsible (even if he never had a problem at his job and was really praise for his professionality), childish (well sorry if he just appreciate life and simples things, he also knows that he needs to be cared for he isn’t oblivious at his sub side and it would look childish in an outsider sight), naive (so what if he couldn’t always read the sub-message and was oblivious of the intent of some people, it’s not his fault) and stupid (because of course if you’re not book smart you’re stupid and Rain being a renowned architectural creative expert isn’t enough).
He was fed up, he tried to change himself but it always backfired and only caused him more pain so he stuck to being himself even if it wasn’t more successful.

Phayu really believes that Prapai just wanted to hang out to mock him and his incredible bad luck with relationships. Apparently, that would be his best friend’s favorite hobby. That, and guessing the reason for the break up. Surprisingly they were almost always the same.
Phayu was a great catch but .. He was too strict (what he really want it to have a structure so the relationship doesn’t go all chaotic, not that they had the time to do so but anyway), controlling (he isn’t stupid, he knows his own preference as a dom), cold (he never had the chance to take the time to really open to someone or feel like he could) and not available (he value his time greatly and doesn’t want to waste it so he’s extra careful on how to divide it, he also have a lot of responsibility).
He often felt lonely and envied Prapai or Saifah to have someone to share their life with, someone to care for.

Phayu and Rain knew each other a bit, their best friends were dating each other, but never really spent time together. Neither of them really had a lot of time available for these 7 years with Rain’s studies and their work.
But for once they would spend the night together, the 4 of them. And the planning appears to be Rain’s and Phayu’s miserable love life.
“So Rain let me guess, this time you got dumped because he found you … childish ?” Sky was having so much fun teasing Rain.
“Uuurgh .. Congrats.. He thinks I’m a child since I can’t cook eggs without burning them. That’s ridiculous.” Rain hid his head in his hands.
“Do you often burn eggs ?” Phayu felt like asking.
“I avoid cooking for a reason, but I really wanted to try to do something nice for him for breakfast. Guess neither the eggs or the relationship worked.” Rain snorted at his own misery and sighed.
“Well at least you didn’t get dumped because you had a late meeting.” Prapai couldn’t help but tease Phayu.
“What ? Really ? That’s stupid, work responsibility comes first.” Rain was a bit stunned..
“Rain the last time you dated a workaholic you acted like a child and made a scene because you didn’t get any attention.” Sky teased him.
“Well he ignored me for a week because apparently he was busy with work ! You can be busy but you can also send a little message to tell me in advance !”
“Wow, we really have bad luck with our partner.” Phayu was thinking out loud.
“Yeah, it would seem so.. At this point we could even try to get together.”
Sky and Pai just burst out laughing at Rain’s proposition.
“You two together ? You wouldn’t last a week ! Phayu couldn’t handle Rain’s chaotic personality.” Sky managed to say while catching his breath.
“And Rain, would get fed up so fast with your cold bossy attitude” Pai added, trying to control his laughter.
Both Rain and Phayu frowned at them. How dare them doubt their ability ! Rain stubbornness was in full mode and was determined to date Phayu and make it last more than a week ! Phayu’s pride and capability was touched, they didn’t know his brat tamer side, he can handle chaos. Phayu will show them that they could work just fine.
Phayu and Rain looked in each other’s eyes and saw the same determination to prove both Sky and Prapai wrong. Phayu arched his brow asking the silent question, Rain smirked in response and they nodded in agreement.
This will be a wild ride.
