The new school year began as planned. The hazers were set to enter the meeting hall in a few minutes and they were already lined up. Arthit hoped Kong would really behave like he promised he would before they got on to campus today. But knowing his boyfriend, he would do something to cause problems. Though for the moment, Arthit was trying not to think about it. He spoke with his friends and fellow hazers as they waited for their queue to enter. Finally it came and Arthit braced himself.

'I must remain stern. No smiling. Only firm and serious.' he thought as they entered the hall. Looking around, he found Kongpob sitting back down close to the front with his best friend, M. Fighting to keep a straight face, he followed his friends onto the stage. Arthit waited a moment while the freshman settled down to listen to him. Once everyone was quiet, he began by introducing himself, then set about explaining the task he had for them. He saw the moment Kongpob couldn't sit quietly any more as he shook his head sharply.

He wasn't surprised when Kongpob raised his hand and began questioning him. There really wasn't much he could do about this interruption without letting everyone know about him and the freshman, so he just dealt with it as he would any other freshman.

As he walked out of the hall, he glanced at Kongpob who was still standing and watching them. His expression was obvious; he was pissed off. He watched as the second years told Kongpob to sit back down.

When they finally exited the hall, Arthit grinned. He was proud of himself for keeping his hazer mask on, even through his boyfriend challenging him. Bright immediately spoke up.

"That kids is going to be trouble. What should we do about him?" It wasn't even a second before someone responded.

"I say we give him another chance. He may stop causing trouble after today." Prem said, surprising everyone. He was usually the first one to get angry with people for causing trouble. So why was he giving this freshman a chance to act better? He seemed to realize the others were giving him odd looks. "Hey, even I can be forgiving sometimes. Don't look at me like that! Would you prefer to start this year off with the freshmen revolting already?" He had a point, so they all relented.

"Fine, but if he does this too much more, we will have to think of a punishment for him." Tutah spoke up this time. Arthit hesitated for a second before nodding his agreement. They all headed their separate ways after that. Arthit headed to his dorm room to put away his things.

He and Kongpob had agreed to live separately during the week so they wouldn't get distracted with each other as well as to keep their relationship a secret longer. Arthit had a feeling that one or more of his friend would catch on if any of them saw Kong going into his dorm building or Arthit went into the wrong building. So walking into his new space was strange. The silence was unknown to him.

He and Kongpob had been together for 2 years now, having met at Siam mall one day. Neither had been paying attention to where they were going and had bumped into the other's arm. Kongpob had dropped his phone, breaking the screen. Arthit had by some chance been able to catch his and kept it from falling. When he realized Kongpob's phone was broken, he had offered to pay to get it fixed as it had been his fault.

Kong had just shaken his head, but seemed to come to a decision. Asking for Arthit's number, he pulled a piece of paper and pen out of his pocket. Arthit hesitated, but figured he owed this guy for the trouble, so he wrote it down and introduced himself. From that day on, Kong had taken the time to call or message the older man to find out more about him. They had eventually gotten close and as they say, the rest is history.

Arthit couldn't tell you when he had fallen in love with the other man, but it just seemed to happen all of a sudden. Now he couldn't live without him for too long at a time.

Arthit looked down and smiled as his phone rang. Speak of the devil and he shall appear. He hit the green button and pressed the phone to his ear.

"Hello. Go to your balcony." Was the first thing Kong said.

"Why?" Arthit had to ask even as he walked over to the door and stepped out. Leaning on the balcony railing, he looked around. He didn't like that his balcony's view was only another building, but he could see the sky, so that was a plus. Scanning the building next door, his gaze stopped on a figure standing on the balcony across from him. No one had lived there last year, so he was a little surprised about their presence.

"Hey." He heard from his phone. He noticed the person across the way raised their hand to wave at the same time. As he stared at the person, the face became clear.

"Kong? Is that you on the balcony?" He asked into the phone. All he got in return was another wave. "Answer me, Kongpob. You are already in trouble right now."

"I'm sorry. Yes, I am the one across the way from you. And about what happened today in the meeting hall, I am so sorry. I couldn't help myself. Plus, you looked so hot on that stage. I really wanted to..."

"Kongpob!" Arthit barked into the phone to stop the words he knew were coming. His face was already turning red from the flirting, he didn't need it to get any worse from arousal as well.

"You know I love it when you call my name like that. Do it again." Arthit could hear the smile in his boyfriend voice. He growled in frustration, but he knew he had already been defeated.

"Kongpob, the next time you cause problems in a meeting, we have all agreed that we need to punish you for it. And I won't be nice about it either."

"Alright. I understand." Kong said sounding serious, but I'm the next second his mischievous side came back. "Although, you know I like your punishments, Pii."

Arthit didn't think he could get any more embarrassed. He knew that if Kongpob could make him blush while they were alone, he didn't want to know what he could do when I'm front of a lot of other people.

"Anyway, how were your classes?" Arthit asked, trying to calm himself down as he watched Kongpob lean on his own balcony railing.

"Good, so far. I like mech 101. Do you really like being the Head Hazer?" Kongpob said, his tone genuinely curious.

They continued talking about their day for another few minutes then they said good night and hung up, going about their homework and getting ready for bed.

As Arthit lay in bed, he thinks about his trouble making boyfriend, sleeping across the way from him. He really hopes that he doesn't have to come up with punishments for him.

As he drifted off to sleep, he knew that was a useless hope.
