The two of them had always been careful.
Gemini Norawit and Forth Nattawat — the hottest BL couple of the moment. Ever since their first drama together, fans had fallen for their chemistry. On screen they looked like they belonged together, but off screen they had drawn clear lines: handshakes instead of hugs at press events, practiced smiles instead of lingering glances.
But away from the cameras, away from the screaming fans and bright lights, Gemini’s cold, composed façade melted. With Forth, he was soft. He laughed easily, smiled lazily, and listened to every word like it was important.
And Forth loved to tease him for it.
That night, Gemini was attending a private brand event in Bangkok. Dressed in a sleek suit, he stood tall and charming, cameras flashing as he moved through the crowd. His phone was tucked neatly in his pocket, notifications silenced. He didn’t know what Forth was doing back at the condo.
But everyone else did.
At home, Forth had decided he was bored. He snapped a few mirror selfies — his shirt lifted just enough to reveal his toned abs, the definition sharp under soft lighting. Mischievous, he added a caption:
“working out pays off ”
Within minutes, the thread went viral. Fans flooded the comments.
“OMG FORTH ”
“ABS??? I wasn’t ready???”
“Gemini, your man is FINE.”
By the time Gemini stepped off stage, his manager’s phone was buzzing uncontrollably.
“Gemini,” she said, pulling him aside. “We have a problem. Forth just posted… something. His abs. The fans are going crazy.”
Gemini’s cool expression cracked.
“What do you mean abs?” he muttered, already fishing for his phone. When he opened Instagram, the pictures hit him like a punch. Forth — his Forth — smiling all innocent while showing off just enough skin to send the fandom into flames.
Jealousy rose hot in his chest. He dialed immediately.
“Delete them,” Gemini said as soon as Forth picked up. His tone was sharp, though laced with something softer underneath.
On the other end, Forth laughed. “Why? Do you not like my abs?”
“Not when the whole world is looking at them,” Gemini snapped, lowering his voice when staff passed by. “Do you even know your name is trending? You’re everywhere.”
“Good,” Forth teased, biting his lip even though Gemini couldn’t see it. “Let them see. I worked hard, you know.”
Gemini pinched the bridge of his nose, sighing. He wasn’t angry — not really. Just protective. The thought of millions of eyes on Forth’s body made something tighten in his chest.
By midnight, Forth’s pictures had trended #1 in Thailand. His fan sites were posting edits. His abs were being analyzed in detail. The BL community was eating it up, half-joking that Gemini must be “secretly fuming somewhere.”
And maybe they weren’t wrong.
Rumors started bubbling.
“Gemini hasn’t liked the post… are they fighting?”
“Did you notice Gemini was staring at his phone at the event? ”
“Could it be… they’re more than just coworkers?”
By the next morning, GMMTV had stepped in.
The official response was simple:
“Forth is enjoying his personal time and shared some photos to interact with fans. We appreciate everyone’s support and love for Gemini and Forth. Please continue cheering for their upcoming project.”
But the statement only fueled more speculation. Some fans noticed how carefully the company phrased it — no scolding, no denial. Others pointed out how Gemini was spotted leaving Forth’s condo late at night, just days before.
The fandom was divided. Some teased that Gemini must be jealous, others whispered that maybe, just maybe, their on-screen chemistry wasn’t entirely acting.
And behind closed doors, in the safety of their own apartment, Gemini pulled Forth into his arms, pressing his forehead against his.
“Next time,” Gemini murmured, voice low and possessive, “if you want to show off, you show off to me first.”
Forth only grinned, looping his arms around Gemini’s neck.
“Don’t worry, Phi. You’ll always be the first.”
