《Freshman》01. One of Them
Advertisement
A/N:
Are you ready for "Freshman"...?
Guess what this is about!
*
Beam is running for his life. Where the fuck was Phana Kongthanin when he needed him?!
Owh, yeah... he now has a boyfriend and is no longer available at the beck and call of his friend, to save his ass everytime he accidentally fucked someone dangerous's girlfriend.
Fuuuuck....
Beam jumps off the fence between the restaurant on the side street, still running from ten angry Geography students when he sees a group of blue jackets in the Ramen shop.
He knows one of them. Forth.
He runs towards the Engineering students and pulls on Forth's blue jacket. "Lend me your jacket!"
Forth nearly fell from his seat, his friends are frozen in confusion and Beam could not wait for Forth agreeing to his request as he just pulls it off to borrow it. "It's urgent!!!"
Forth lets his Engineering jacket get taken off and watches as Beam wears it and then pushes him and Lam away to get a seat on the bench between them.
"Just act like nothing happened!" Beam says.
But Engineering students are too simple minded, they're frozen for good when confused.
Just then the five Engineering students on the table finally see the ten angry Geography students roaming on the street.
And so they chat like nothing happened and Beam succeeds in hiding between them.
Beam's observing the Geography students carefully as they finally leave. They did not bother to look at the Engineering students group. Looking at them too much could invite unwanted trouble.
Trouble with Engineering students should be avoided at all costs.
"They didn't even bother to look here." Beam is amazed.
Forth chuckles. He is now just wearing a black T-shirt since Beam wears his blue jacket. "Staring at their mortal enemy would trigger another war."
Beam makes a 'wow' with his mouth. "Damn. If I knew being an Engineering student would be this badass, I would've been one instead of being Med student."
"Ppffftt...!" Park nearly bursts into laughter but he hurriedly swallows it again.
Too late though. Beam turns to Park who sits across Lam and then frowns. "Why are you laughing? You don't think I am capable to be one of you?"
Lam has to bite his lower lip. Either way, he'll laugh.
Max grins.
Tul smiles.
Forth raised his eyebrow. Beam just challenged the highest tempered of them all.
But Park bursts into full laughter. "Seriously?! Oh my God, Forth, your friend is so funny."
Beam frowns harder. "You think I could not be one of you?!"
Forth chuckles.
Beam turns to Forth, his eyes blazing with anger. "Not you too!"
Forth bites his lip. He doesn't want to bursts into laughter and make Beam combust in anger, but really, suddenly he looked cute with his over sized blue jacket and frowning thick eyebrows. Not to mention his glaring beautiful eyes and tightened red lips.

Forth blinks. Hey. Come to think of it, he has never seen Beam this up close before. Not even when he used to drink with Phana's gang before all of the Wayo bullshit happened almost a year ago during his early second year.
Months have passed and now the second year is almost over.
Forth has not been back to his game like he used to be before having feelings for Wayo, sleeping around here and there. Stuck somewhere between haven't moved on yet and being busy.
But seriously, the person in front of him is what he would call a 'total babe'. Just one problem, he is Beam Baramee.
Waaaaayyyyy out of Forth's league.
"What?!" Beam repeats. "Want proof?"
"One question." Forth finally speaks.
"What?" Beam hissed.
"What do you think you're capable of? Being Engineering student, or being one of us?" Forth asked.
"What's the difference?" Beam asks.
Park throws both his hands in the air in disbelief. "Do we look like average Engineering students in your eyes?"
Beam shrugs. "I only know few Engineering students. All five of you because we once upon a time went drinking together, and Ming.
You all have tattoos and piercing. Fight almost everyday.... So what? Big deal, I fight too. If I want to, I can have tattoo and piercing too.
And smoke... yeah smoking, why not? That's how you try to show how cool you are because you have no other option like being actually cool instead of acting cool."
Park looks at Beam, not at all amused. "Really? You are pushing my buttons here. And just because you are friends with Forth, doesn't mean I won't hit you. Oh wait, I guess I'll hit you since you are not his friend anymore, not since you know what!"
Beam smirks. "See... Med student is cooler than Engineering student."
"This year Campus Moon is from Engineering!" Park lost it. And then he looks at Lam. "Can I hit him? Please?"
Lam shakes his head.
Park growls.
Beam laughs in victory.
Forth smiles.
Max and Tul grin ear to ear.
"Just because Lam didn't let me hit you, doesn't mean that you are right!" Park says. His childlike attitude showing. "You don't know what it takes to be an Engineering student. Moreover to be one of us on this table."
"I am one of you on this table." Beam retorts.
Park gasps.
Forth bursts into laughter. No one has ever dared to throw rebukes at Park because he is hot tempered and can break anyone's nose just because he can, but Beam...? Hell... he even fished problems with ten Geography students.
"No. You're just sitting here. Doesn't mean that you're one of us!" Park retorts back. "You don't have a gear! I bet you could not even survive SOTUS even for one fucking day!"
"I could have!"

"You could not!"
"Could have!"
"Could not!"
Lam chuckles.
Park looks at Lam. "Help me here or I'm gonna hit him!"
Lam looks at Beam. He leans closer and then says, "Beam, unless you prove that you know how to survive SOTUS and earn a gear, you don't know for sure what it takes to be Engineering student, moreover to be one of us. We are higher ups you know...."
Beam blinks. "Wow, Lam.... seeing you closer like this, you look cute. How come you're not Forth's boyfriend?"
Forth chokes on his drink.
Max and Tul gasps. No. He didn't just say that! Not in front of Park!
Lam's smile disappears from his face. He leans off of Beam and looks at Forth. "I know he's your friend, but can I hit him?"
Lam rarely gets angry. Beam provoked him good.
Forth bursts into laughter.
Beam looks at Forth. "What? He's with you since highschool right? You're always together. If I were you, being bisexual and all, I'll fall for him instead of Wayo. Look at him, he's perfect."
"Forth!!" Park lost it.
But Forth can't stop laughing. Before either Park or Lam hit Beam, he pulls Beam closer to his side by his shoulder. "Calm down, calm down...." he says.
Beam looks at the arm that's around his shoulder. "One thing I get here, you value friendship too much and look out for each other, right?"
Forth still has his arm on Beam's shoulder to protect him from Park's and Lam's anger. "Yeah." He said.
"Hmmm...." Beam is thinking hard. And then he snaps his fingers and gets up. "I knew it! I shouldn't have followed Phana to get into Medical! Now he left me for his boyfriend! I'll go to Engineering instead!"
All five Engineering students at the table gawk in awe.
"You'll what?"
"Wait, Engineering has some different Majors, right?" Beam asks. Still standing.
They nod.
"Which are you on?"
Silence.
Beam looks at Forth.
"Electrical." Forth answers.
Beam turns to Lam.
"Electrical." Lam answers too.
Beam turns to Park.
Park growls. He turns his face away.
Beam doesn't care. He turns to Max.
Max chuckles. He likes to see how Park is stressed because he can't hit a person that made him mad. "Mechanical." He answers.
"Owh! You're direct senior of Ming then?" Beam asks.
Max nods.
Beam turns to Tul.
"Geology." Tul answers.
"Cool. I'll take Electrical Engineering then." Beam says.
"You can't just take it and be one of the students." Forth says.
"Yeah? Says who? I can enroll the next year." Beam says.
All of them are stunned.
"Why would you enroll to Engineering in your third year?" Forth is confused.
"You have to pass the national entrance test, and you have thousands of rivals." Lam adds.
"I am smart." Beam says.
"From what I saw, not smart enough for taking Engineering." Park retorts and pouts.
Beam rolls his eyes. "I am a Med student. I am smarter than you."
Park's eyes are ready to jump out of his sockets. "You fucking little shit...." he hissed.
Beam steps out of the table. "Okay then, see you in Engineering, guys." He walks out the restaurant but then he walks back again. "Sorry, forgot that I was still wearing your jacket." He says to Forth as he takes it off and gives it to Forth. "Thanks. You saved me."
Forth looks at Beam. "What was that all about? You fucked their girl?"
Beam smirks.
"Try not to fuck any girl of Engineering student, will you?" Forth said. "That, we won't save you."
Beam winks. "It's not my fault if they want me instead of their boyfriends. If any of Engineering student's girlfriend is all over me, it just proves that I'm better than Engineering student."
Park nearly bursts his anger again but Beam continues.
"But...." Beam says. "I want to be one of you. Any student will think twice before making a problem with me. And if I take one of your girlfriends, it will be just a one on one battle instead of one vs ten. So.... See you next year!"
Beam gulps Forth's ice coffee and then runs out the restaurant, leaving five confused Engineering students behind.
***
Phana drops his phone to the floor when Beam told him his plan the next morning at the class. "You what?!"
Kit can't even move a muscle.
Beam looks at both Phana and Kit. "I'll roll out from Medical Faculty and enters the national entrance test to enroll in Engineering Faculty, majoring in Electrical." He says with all the determination in his voice.
"No you won't. You can't just throw away your two years worth of education to be a first year Engineering student in your third year of med college!" Phana lost it.
Beam tilts his head. "Says who?"
Phana gasps. He turns to Kit. "Help me the fuck here!"
Kit looks at Beam. He has already calmed himself down. "Why do you suddenly want to be an Engineering student?"
"People won't mess with Engineering students. Even when they take their girl." Beam says.
Phana blinks. "You are saying...." Then he lost it. "You want to be an Engineering student so you won't get beaten up, when you fucked another man's girl???!!!"
Beam nods calmly.
"You will fucking-leave your bright future here to be one of those barbaric assholes who'll turn out to be blue collar workers because you want to fuck???!!!" Phana's anger knows no bounds, "Fucking-seriously???!!!"
Beam winks at his friends. "We only live once."
"Beam-fucking-Baramee!!!" Both Phana and Kit yell.
***
A/N:
Now, now.... Freshman...!
We have one crazy Beam here, a free spirit and childlike attitude.
What kind of Forth do we need?

Flashback: Siren Song
The year is 1969. Yancy Lazarus—bluesman, gambler, future world-class mage and fix-it man—is just a dumb, unlucky kid serving with the 3rd Battalion 3rd Marines in Vietnam.With just a few weeks left to go until Yancy gets shipped back to the States, he’s just trying to keep his head down and avoid a body bag—no mean feat in Nam. But when his squad is tasked with conducting a routine patrol deep in enemy territory, everything goes to nine kinds of hell, and he quickly sees his chances at survival slipping away.When the radio operators start to pick up some funky, dirty ol’ blues all the way out in the backcountry, it’s a nice change of pace. At least until the men in Yancy’s squad start losing their minds, turning on each other with murderous intent as the music works its deadly power within them. Convinced it’s some kind of new psychological warfare initiative, the squad leader forces the men to push deeper and deeper into the Vietnamese jungle, obsessed with locating the music’s source. What they find, however, isn’t some new technology, but an ancient spirit awoken by the terrible war. Even worse, the music is changing Yancy too, awakening something buried inside of him. Only one thing is certain, nothing is ever going to be the same.See how it all began … *** PRAISE FOR SIREN SONG:Hunter's writing is as low-down, gritty, and insidious as the blues Yancy Lazarus loves. Just like the mysterious music drifting through the jungle toward Yancy's squad, Siren Song will get under your skin and sink its hooks into your mind. —eden Hudson, Author of Halo Bound (the Redneck Apocalypse series) *** Hey everyone, this is James Hunter. This story isn't a full length novel--its a novella length work (25K words), and is part of my Yancy Lazarus series. Its already free on Amazon, so I thought I'd post chapters here for the good folks of Royal Road.
