No one should tell you this but you could guess how he was. Jae Won looked like he had been hit by a mighty storm after he heard what Vincent had told him going back to school in a week.
"Oh" this is the word that could come out of his mouth after a few seconds of silence. He was going to miss Vincent a lot though they can contact each other through phone but nothing beats physical communication where you could clearly see their facial expressions, their eyes which makes it amazing to talk to them.
How do you feel when you get to be so close to your crush, you know how that feels like right? That's exactly how Jae Won felt, not to be able to see Vincent whenever he wants. Sleep besides him not able to touch him and smell his beautiful scent that lingers in the air when he enters a room.
As Jae Won felt all kinds of emotions at the thought of Vincent leaving in a week time. "Then I guess I should spend more time with you before you go" Jae Won said as he kept on riding his horse but in a slow pace.
"I'm gonna miss you but I will see you soon" Vincent said but Jae Won mind and thoughts were at a different place so he didn't hear the 'see you soon'. "Mn" Jae Won replied still lost in his thoughts.
They rode through the beautiful trees for a few hours, with competition and placing bets. The loser gets to do anything the winner wants and Vincent had been winning not giving Jae Won a chance to win one bit at all because Vincent had a plan.
They rode for a while and after they were tired they left the stables back to the mansion. They had their shower and went to have lunch.
After they had their lunch, Akwasi came down from upstairs to inform them he will be leaving the next day. In Vincent heart he is happy because he wouldn't be too close to Jae Won anymore.
It's the next morning and Akwasi had packed up to go back to his home and prepare for his return to school. After they all had breakfast, Akwasi thanked them for their warm welcome and in a few minutes of exchanging words, he left. He sat in his car "see you in school" Akwasi said as he drove off.
Everybody left including Mrs Gladys who is always the last to leave. Now, leaving the two love birds all alone again.
"So what are we going to do today?" Jae Won asked, excitement in his voice. "How about we play a football" Vincent suggested.
Jae Won could play football but he is not that good at that but didn't care as long as he got to be with Vincent and beside they only have few days left before he leaves for school.
"Come on, I'm eager to play some ball" Vincent said as he left the living room. "He is so eager for a football I guess" Jae Won said to himself as he also walked out of the living room.
In a few minutes they went to a nearby football field and the two stood as if they were being cheered on by spectators and fans.
"It's game on" Vincent said as they started playing the ball. As Jae Won and Vincent were in a heated game of a football match, their sneakers pounded against the green grass.
The morning sun shine brightly on them which cast a beautiful yet warm glow over the entire scene. Vincent is good at sports with a force to be reckoned with on the field but hide in his shell and not participate in any activity.
Vincent dodged and weave around Jae Won's attempts to tackle him while his laughter echoes through the air "give up, you can't tackle me with that beautiful slender body of yours" Vincent said as he smirked irritating Jae Won.
With all his cunning ideas, Jae Won walked slowly towards Vincent looking at him with a cute face and frown as if he had given up. With all his force he tackled Vincent on to the ground "how about that?" Jae Won said as his laughter permeated the air.
Vincent couldn't believe he led his guard down and got defeated. As he lie down on the ground with his face as shocked as it is "that is not victory, that is a cheat" he finally said something after a few seconds. "Well, my dear….it doesn't matter how war is won as long there is one man standing" Jae Won said as he smirked.
Vincent couldn't bare to lose so he anticipated Jae Won's move as he sprinted down the field while his focus was back on the ball. Vincent sensing an opportunity made a sudden dash towards Jae Won and made a quick tackle, which send both of them tumbling to the ground. With their laughter and and panting, they landed in a heap "how about this?" Vincent said but his face turned sour as he looked at Jae Won's face.
"I'm so sorry, are you hurt?" Vincent asked as he got closer to Jae Won to check out his wound but he was fooled again. "Got you!!" Jae Won said as he pushed Vincent closer to him their face an inch away 'uh uh, I've taken it far' Jae Won thought.
Their gaze never leaving the other as they keep searching for something in the other eyes. Jae Won knew he had to stop all this before he do the worst so he began to tickle Vincent making him lose control as he giggled on top of Jae Won.
"Now let's get back to our game" Jae Won said as he stood up from the ground 'hweeew, that was close' Jae Won thought.
Now back at their game, Jae Won couldn't managed to settle the scores against him. Vincent scored 10 while Jae Won scored none. This created an opportunity for Vincent to make fun of Jae Won which he clearly didn't like as he thought of ways to get back at Vincent.
"I give up…how about some running?" Jae Won suggested with a sly smile lurking around the corner of his lips. Jae Won usually was known for his quick speed. He had won tons of awards from his preschool till University which he lost interest in all of a sudden.
With his mind fixed in winning over Vincent, he suggested. Vincent who had no idea who he was up against accepted with much faith as he fell right into Jae Won's trap.
They set their rules and where the finish line and they began. With all possible tricks and strength, Vincent couldn't win against Jae Won. He knew he couldn't win unless he used the same tricks Jae Won had used earlier by cheating.
When the race began, Vincent focus was on the back of Jae Won while Jae Won was busy running to win. In his mind, he will win this time again but who knew he was about to be tackle down again.
Vincent put all his efforts to catch up with Jae Won but not to pass by him. He raised his hand and held Jae Won's waist shocking him as he used the opportunity to pushed him on the ground while he followed.
"Ooouch" they both said as they struggled to catch their breath, Vincent turned to Jae Won with a mischievous grin "well well, I think we both failed this round" he teased.
Jae Won chuckled while he wiped the sweat from his brow "oh I do understand your ego. You can't bare see me win again" Jae Won said with a smile.
Vincent playfully shoved Jae Won and they other ended up in a fit of giggles "I think I'm gonna cry because of all the laughing" Jae Won said as he kept on giggling.
As they sat on the green grass taking a break from their little love game, Jae Won couldn't help but notice the way Vincent's eyes sparkled in the sunlight. Unconsciously Jae Won lean in closer as he wiped sweat on Vincent's forehead.
Vincent felt a flutter in his chest so as Jae Won and they both quickly looked away. 'Why is my heart beating so fast again' Vincent thought. "I'm gonna die from all this heartbeat before my time" Jae Won said as he brushed off the feeling.
But as they continued to play, Jae Won couldn't shake off the feeling that there was something more between them, something that went beyond friendship.
And Jae Won was right, it s just a little time before Vincent realized all the feeling in him was love instead of friendship or brotherly love.
They played for a while and decided to get an ice cream as they want something chilly down their throat. They entered the ice cream parlor but the stare Jae Won was receiving was a lot and Vincent didn't like it.
He turned and face them with bloodshot eyes that sent shivers down their spine warning them off Vincent's man.
'He is mine so back off' was the look he gave them making them run off with their tails in between their legs.
