Chapter Text
Prapai has left the Sky's Dormitory. He knew something was wrong. But he felt helpless. Additionally, the boy gave the impression that he did not want to know him. But how was he supposed to let go when Sky's eyes cried out for help? Why is this wonderful boy unable to help himself? He cares about him. He don't want to spoil it. He felt he needed to talk to someone about it. Rain? No, He don't think he still trusts him. Phayu? His golden advice is to let him alone. He did not want to bring up this delicate topic in front of his friends. He needed someone who was very trusted. And who has always been able to listen to him and give quite good advice? His dear father! It's time to visit his family Villa.
Already at the main gate, he noticed two bodyguards who nodded to him in greeting. After so many years, he still couldn't get used to the number of bodyguards in the villa. They watched his every move. That was the price of owning the name Theerapanukual. However, he did enjoy potential anonymity. His fathers made sure that he was not on the tongues of the press and the target of his enemies. Anyway, who had the nerve to mess with a united mafia family? Only fools.
His fathers, despite the popularity in almost all of Thailand and the obligations that rest on the heirs of the mafia. They gave him maximum love. Prapai has never felt neglected and unloved. In hard times, Kinn and Porsche were next to him. He was immensely grateful to them for that.
Porsche liked to gossip with him. He was interested in how Pai was doing at school or if he had friends. He infected him with his passion for motorcycles. Pai loved adrenaline like his dad. Though he was banned definitively for illegal street fights. Which does not change the fact that he probably watched every video on Youtube with the legendary Phoenix in the lead role.
Porsche as a parent is a sensitive person. He is not afraid to show emotions. There is no problem that he cannot solve. After all, this is about a person who jumped out of the ship without hesitation while escaping from his boss.
The boss of Porsche, actually a ex-boss, and currently a partner, privately husband of Porsche and father of Prapai- Anakinn Theerapanyakul. Even 18 years ago, anyone would have thought Kinn as a father was something surreal. Kinn had a double task. Prove to himself that he could do it and to everyone who didn't believe in him. Prapai has heard thousands of stories about his fathers, mostly from his dear uncles. If he didn't know his father, he would have thought he was hearing stories about the Ice Prince, not about Kinn, about his dad who would do anything for him.
Kinn was afraid of fatherhood. Yes, the terror of Thailand, the mafia boss, head to the Theerapanukual family, was afraid of fatherhood. Fortunately, Porsche successfully dispelled his doubts. He assured him every day that he would be a wonderful dad, just as he was a wonderful husband. And it was Prapai who loved them the most - endless support. Even if the world were to collapse. He is very lucky that he is not the kid who gets money instead of parental love.
Kinn helped him grow his business. He taught him how to be a boss whom his subordinates would respect. Not forgetting about healthy relations in the company. Prapai knew that if it hadn't been for the help and support of his fathers, he wouldn't have had anything. Kinn did not want Prapai to make the same mistakes as he did in the future. Even though the real drama queen was Porsche, Kinn was incredibly explosive. Prapai still remembers how he moved to another school. For the teacher treated Pai as inferior just because of his last name. Kinn got his teacher fired and changed schools in case other children gossiped about it. When he came home from a school fight, Kinn was ready to intervene. Fortunately, there was a Porsche. Which dissuaded him from this abstract idea.

Prapai went to his dad's office. He knocked softly and when he heard approval he immediately entered. He saw Porsche drowning in a pile of papers. However, when Porsche noticed who was visiting him, he quickly distracted from his work.
"Ohh who decided to visit his old papa here" - he laughed and immediately went to hug Prapai, kissing him gently on the forehead.
"Hi Dad," Pai laughed
"What brings you to me? Are you okay? Are you hungry? Would you like something to drink?" Porsche pounded him with a lot of questions.
"It's okay, Dad, thank you. Coffee, please, if it's not a problem" - replied Prapai
"Of course not. Remember this is your home," Porsche laughed and went to make coffee.
They sat down on the large comfortable couch.
"Tell me, how are you? How are you in college? At the company? When is the next race? Maybe I'll come see my son in action? How's Phayu and his boyfriend? What was his name? Storm? Hurricane?"
"Rain, Dad. His boyfriend is Rain."
"I was close. I saw something related to the weather."
"They're doing pretty well. He makes Phayu a smaller asshole than usual."
'Hahaah, he has Vegas genes. That explains it all. It's good that you have only great character traits after me. "- laughed Porsche
"Of course, all that is wonderful is yours." -Prapai chuckled
"How's the races going? I heard the semi-finals are coming soon"
"Yes, on Friday it's Phayu and I have my race on Saturday," explained Prapai
"I'm so proud son. Will you mind if we go with Kinn to cheer on our greatest treasure?"
"Dad, don't call me that ... I'm an adult now," said Pai, embarrassed
"Oh, someone is ashamed here," laughed Porsche
"Sure you can come. I'm just afraid that your visit will cause more sensation than the whole race" - Pai laughed
"Relax, we'll be incognito. We won't do any show."
It's nice talking to his dad, but he's here for a different matter. He knew he had to bring up this topic.
"Dad, I met someone ..." Pai said slowly
"Honey, that's great. But why aren't you happy?"
"Because I don't think he wants me ..."
"I didn't want your father either. And I ended up going over his contracts. It's actually better than washing his pants."
"But he's different. He's hiding something. When he was sick, I took care of him. And he has sleep paralysis every night. I can still hear his scream full of pain. I'm so powerless. I don't know how to help him," Pai explained.
"Oh baby. I'm so sorry. Come here to me," he said and hugging Pai.
"He's such a wonderful, valuable boy and there is so much pain in his eyes."
"Talk to him. Just don't press anything. If he wants to, he will tell you. But you have to support him. Be by his side. Make him trust you and don't expect anything in return. Love cannot be bought. It's a selfless feeling." - explained Porsche
"What if something happens to him. Is he going to do something to himself?"
"Pai, don't say that. Everything will be fine. Talk to him calmly. Don't expect anything from him, just give from yourself."
"He ... he thinks I just want sex. I really care about him. I want him to feel good."
"Maybe he has some past trauma regarding sexual relations. If he underestimates himself so much," thought Porsche
"Don't say that. It hurts me so much that such a wonderful man has a low opinion of himself. He deserves all the good of this world."
"Ohh Pai, I can see how much you care about him. But you have to give him time to open up to you."
"I wish he could see it," Pai sighed sadly
"I'm sure he appreciates how you try. He's just bothering him."
"I have to help him. Listen, Dad, thank you for the advice. I don't know what I would do without you, but I have to be back late."
"Because that's what you have parents, honey. Remember, we'll always help you. Oh, come visit Kinn. He's gonna sulk a week when he finds out you were here and not even greeted with him.
"Yeah, I'm going to see him. It's strange that you work together and yet you're on different floors in the villa."
"Relax Pai, we don't argue. When we work in one confusion, we quickly disperse" - laughed Porsche
"Eww dad, stop. I didn't want to hear that"
"Pai don't play innocent"
"blah blah blah I'm coming. Thank you, Dad, for everything," he said hugging the Porsche.
"Goodbye Pai, see you at the race"
***
The next day he knocked on the Sky's Dormitory.
"Hi Sky! Look what I moved. Your favorite curry rice and lemonade"
"Oh hi Pai, what's the occasion?"
"Does there always have to be an occasion? I can't visit such a lovely boy?"
"Stop saying that, Prapai. I'm not wonderful. Come in and let us eat? Will we watch something?"
"Of course"
They watched the show and ate dinner. From time to time, they exchanged insights about the series.
"Are you neglecting your business because of me?" Sky asked after a moment
"Don't worry about that. It's my choice when I show up at work," Pai laughed.
"I feel bad that you sacrifice yourself so much for me, and I can't give you anything," sighed Sky
"Sky, I don't want anything. Your smile is enough for me. I want you to know that I'm here for you. I'll always listen to you. I'll be there for you. You deserve happiness, whether you lock me in Friendzone or not."
"I don't deserve happiness. I'm spoiled. I'm afraid to fall in love. Nothing good will happen to me anymore," wailed Sky
"Sky, what is this nonsense ?! You're smart, handsome, brave. If there were only people like you in the world, there would never be wars. You're perfect."
"The bitches aren't perfect. They're dirty," screamed Sky
"Sky don't say that ..." he said, stroking his back
"You fucking don't understand anything. I wasn't even good enough for my boyfriend. I was just a dirty whore, a toy for a while. Anyway, you know what I'm talking about. Do you have a lot of contacts with cute boys? Who are just waiting for you to bend them in half and fuck them? I hope they are more fortunate than me "
"Sky, what are you talking about?"
"How am I supposed to feel important and loved when even my boyfriend decided to rape me. Inviting his friends to play. He said that I am a whore and they like it. Apparently, this is what I am meant to do." Sky shouted, tears in his eyes.
"Sky, I haven't seen ..."
"Nobody knew. Why bother someone, a whore like me"
"Don't say that! You don't understand that he is the psycho. People like them should rot in agony. I will find him and tear him apart!"
"I've always liked piercings. I used to get one in my nipple. That was the first time he called me a whore. I did it for him."
"Sky, baby don't believe it! That dick no deserves to live. And you don't blame yourself for it. You just trusted a bad person. He was never worthy of you. You're not broken. You wear scars in your psyche. They are a symbol of your force. You are amazing that after such a trauma, you go on. You are a wonderful friend. Rain would do anything for you. Me too. I will do whatever you ask me to do. I will grant your every wish. Sky, can you hear me? I care about you. Help yourself. Together we are able to defeat the demons of your past. I will always be there for you. Expecting nothing in return. I will do anything to bring the joyful spark in your eyes back. I know we started our relationship wrong, but I fucking care. Sky please, don't push me away. " Prapai said through his tears
"It will take a long time"
"I know, I'll wait"
"I won't be able to open up quickly"
"I will be waiting for you"
"You will get bored of this. You'll walk away from me"
"I will be with you. I will take care of you. Like no one else."
"Fine. I trust you," Sky said softly
"You don't know how much it means to me"
"Can I go to the race and cheer for you?" Sky asked uncertainly
"Sure, honey. I'll be so pleased"
"I'll go with Rain and Phayu"
"Oh yeah! My parents are going there," Pai remembered
"Are you taking Kinn Theerapanukual with you if the race was not in your favor?" - he laughed for the first time that day.
"How do you know my father?"
"Pai, everyone with the Internet knows Kinn and Porsche," said Sky
"And it doesn't bother you?" he asked uncertainly
"Until a tall, handsome man with bushy eyebrows knocks on my dorm asking for money," Sky laughed.
"Very funny. It's true they are twisted, but very sweet."
"Theerapanyakuls do not let go"
"Hey, I don't put a bag over anyone's head and I don't kidnap it"
"What? Did your father abduct a Porsche?"
"Something like that"
"Your parents are crazy!"
"Let's not talk about them now. Their adventures are a long topic like the Turkish soap opera."
"Thank you for everything Prapai, I needed someone to complain to. I appreciate how you care for me"
"Honey, thank you for your trust. I appreciate you telling me this. I will do everything so that you don't have to regret it."
***
Race day has come. Yesterday Phayu won, securing a place in the final. Today was Prapai's turn, he just had to defeat his friend Gun. And in the end, spoil the blood of Phayu. As announced, Kinn and Porsche sat in the stands. Phayu had to admit that they had good camouflage. For the first time, they were not conspicuous. They put on quite normal clothes, giving up expensive extravagant suits, they also had protective masks and baseball caps. Above them sat Phayu with Sky and Rain a few rows higher. Pai smiled at the sight of them.
***
"Look who's come to the races," laughed Phayu, pointing to Kinn and Porsche
"Pai said they wanted to see him in action," Sky nodded
"Wait, these are his parents. I suspected they were rich, but look at the tanned one. He's taking a picture of an iPhone that isn't even on sale!" Rain said confusedly.
"Uncle Porsche loves taking pictures," Phayu said simply
"Uncle ?! This is your family?" He said, surprised
"Don't say you don't know. Do you know my last name?" Phayu laughed
"Theerapanyakul, don't fool me. I know my boyfriend's name," Rain growled.
"Do you know what the Theerapanyakul family does?" Sky asked
"Looking at them, I can say that they don't deliver leaflets for sure"
"Rain, dear, how would I tell you. I am the son of the first son of the minor family of the mafia family in Thailand. My second father is a former bodyguard working for Kinn, the head of the major family. There wasMajor and Minor family. But there is a great family Theerapanyakul. Where everyone has shared the responsibilities, and the main boss is him. Here he pointed to Kinn. " Phayu said in one breath.
"And you thought you would hide your origin from me?" Asked Rain
"I thought you knew and you accept me!"
"I'm not talking to you!" He huffed in a scowl
Then they heard the voice of the announcer announcing the players.
"On the right side of Prapai!" the announcer shouted. A smiling boy turned out to be on the big screen
Porsche and Kinn screamed loudly and clapped at the sight of him.
"And they killed people? They look like cute suportive parents" - Sky laughed incredulously
"You have to meet your in-laws," laughed Phayu
"Prapai and I are not a couple," Sky replied quickly.
"Will you go around for a long time? I can see how he looks at you. With love."
"Focus on apologizing to Rain." Sky changed the subject and they looked at the boy
"He doesn't even hear what we're talking about, he just looks at something on the phone," Phayu laughed
"He probably using google 'Who is the Theerapanukual family," Sky laughed
They were interrupted by the announcer announcing the second competitor.
"Left Side Gun!"
Then Sky looked at the screen and saw him. His ex-boyfriend. His rapist.
