Personal Manager
14 - The one in my heart
"Can you stand?" the tall figure asked the person in front of him while they were brushing their teeth.
"Even if I can't stand, I won't fall," Gun said, because he was holding Kel so tightly, his left arm propped against the sink counter for him to hold onto.
He's so good at being romantic.
They both returned to cuddle on the wide bed as before, agreeing that they weren't hungry yet and wanted to stay like this for a long time.
Moreover, today was the model's day off. The petite figure rested his head on the strong arm, giggling at a video on his phone. He was truly happy, but his body was so sore he could barely move.
kiss!
Gun bent down and kissed Kel’s soft hair once. He confessed that their last act of lovemaking was while he was already asleep. Kel just wrinkled his nose at him.
It was more annoyance than complaining or anger. Last night, it was almost 3 AM before Gun stopped their lovemaking, and they didn't get to sleep until 4 AM because he had to carry the smaller man to wash away the traces of their lovemaking after a marathon of pleasure.
"What are you looking at?" Gun asked. Kel then moved closer to his warm chest so he could see what was on the screen, too.
"So cute."
Kel didn't have long to laugh at the twins' video before a LINE notification interrupted. It was an older colleague who owns a pub who urged Kel to do an Instagram Live stream for the second time to greet customers.
"Here we go again," Gun said with a bored expression after reading the message.
Because lately, Kel hasn't been working as a DJ entertaining customers at Jess's club. Normally, even if he doesn't play music, he’d be there drinking almost every day. Kel is busy being Gun’s personal manager, coordinating with various departments that Gun works with. Plus, when Kel gets back to his room, he doesn't get any rest. If he’s not having sex with the male model, he’s cuddling until morning. So where would he find the time to go out at night?
"I'm going to go live outside," the slender figure said, shifting his position, but a sharp pain shot through him, making him wince.
"You can't get up," Gun knew well, because even going to the bathroom earlier, he had to carry him.
"yeah"
"And which customer wants to see you? Has their name been specified?" The questioner clearly showed displeasure because they didn't want the other person to go live, even though the other person has a cute face and looks great on camera.
"I don't even know if anyone will watch. I'll try the live stream first. If there are no viewers, I'll end it," an older colleague said, adding that some customers had been complaining about missing DJ Kel and had requested it. The live stream was also to help promote the pub. Great job!
"I like to please others."
"It's not just other people; whatever Gun wants, I'll give it to him," he retorted immediately.
"No, I mean, you’ll do whatever the pub owner tells you to do—you’ll do it immediately if she just messages you to do a live stream."
"It's not difficult at all. I answer when someone asks." Talking to people in the comments isn't complicated at all. They're seniors anyway, so what's the big deal?
We help each other.
"Give me your Instagram, I want to check it out too," the man said, taking out his smartphone and handing it to the person in his arms.
"Is that a good idea?" Kel asked, raising his slender eyebrows.
"That's good. What are you afraid of?"
"nothing"
"We're already familiar with each other. Everyone thinks we're a model and his personal manager, but in reality, we're more than that." Only they know each other.
What I know about this relationship.
"How much?" I asked, just pretending.
"Do you want me to show you?" The shorter person glared immediately upon hearing this, then turned to search for their own Instagram handle and hand over their phone.
"No disruptive comments," I have to warn preemptively.
"Just my heart is enough? I want to give it to you," Gun smiled.
"I don't want the emoticon, I want this one," he said, pointing a slender finger at his strong chest as he smiled.
"I think I've left it with you for several days now."
"Buy it." That answer made Kel immediately burrow into his broad chest. He's so good at making him blush.
"Tee" is just full of cuteness. The compliments I often give, like "You're cute," come from the heart. I feel happy every time I see a smile on this person's face.
"Who hurt me? Carry me outside," a sweet voice murmured.
"Change your pants first," Gun said, and without further ado, slipped his hand under the blanket and stroked Kel’s smooth thigh.
"yeah..."
"They're so short." He put these shorts on Kel himself after they had sex. He chose them because he wanted him to be comfortable.
"But the live stream only shows the top half. This outfit shouldn't be a problem," Kel said, putting on a t-shirt.
"No, then there's no live stream," Gun refused.
"I can't get up. Go get me a change." A slender smile spread across his lips; you could say he was flirting early in the morning. Gun immediately got out of bed as if he'd been waiting for this moment for a long time. He grabbed a pair of trousers from the closet, then walked back to the bed and pulled the blanket off Kel, revealing his beautiful legs.
"Just change my pants," the slender figure said.
"Please check over there as well."
"..." And who could disagree?
The young model slowly moved his hand up to the waistband of the elasticated shorts. The smaller man cooperated by slightly lifting his hips. He unconsciously bit his lip as the shorts were pulled down. He felt a little dizzy; he had known since waking up that he was without underwear. When the shorts came off, he was instantly naked from the waist down.
"Spread your legs a little," the handsome face said, pulling back. The listener nodded in acknowledgement before following the command, slowly raising his knees and spreading his legs wide to reveal the sore area. The coolness of strong fingers gently touching it...Kel immediately let out a gasp. It was a strange, indescribable feeling. He didn't intend to moan provocatively.
"Does it hurt a lot?" a deep voice asked, his gaze still fixed on the swollen, reddened opening.
"It hurts," a weak voice said.
"What about the medicine I bought for you?"
On their first time together, Gun bought both oral and topical medicine for Kel and brought them back with him.
"In the wardrobe, upstairs."
Hearing that, Gun got out of bed again to get some ointment to apply, feeling very guilty when he saw the condition of the area he had violated for almost the whole night.
When he turned around, he was completely stunned. The sight of the Kel lying there with his legs spread apart was incredibly sexy from this angle. Kel’s sweet eyes were looking at him, too.
"Don't stare. I get shy, too."
The young model brushed his hair lightly, shaking his head a couple of times at his own thought. Gun, who was picking up the medicine, was also thinking to himself that he should take a break from the activity. He had gone to bed early to let his personal manager rest, but then his thoughts wandered too far again.
"I'm sorry," he said, gently dabbing the white cream onto the creases.
"Ah!" The small figure flinched.
"I'll have to stop for now," he said, his face showing a dejected expression, while his hands continued their work diligently.
"I can endure it." It's not just because of Gun; it's because he himself has his own needs.
"It's all bruised now. I should have been gentler with you."
"Mmm!" Kel's body twitched again, probably from Gun's fingers that kept stroking him. He sighed softly before quickly putting on his pants, because if he left Kel naked from the waist down any longer, he wouldn't be able to resist. Kel’s alluring body always aroused him. Everything was done, but the tall man didn't get up yet. Instead, he moved to straddle the slender body.
*Kiss*
He kissed Kel’s soft cheek once. The one who received it immediately smiled. They gazed at each other for a while in silence, and then his strong hand moved.
He gently brushed back the strands of hair that had fallen over Kel’s forehead before kissing his forehead again. Now, a faint blush was visible on his cheeks.
"Don't look at me like that," Kel said softly, his heart pounding.
"You're giving me a seductive look," he said, blushing at those eyes as well.
"Gun is so handsome," a slender hand gently touched the chin of the young model. It's no wonder he's a model; he's incredibly handsome. God intended to mould it.
"Hee," the person being complimented chuckled softly before leaning down to kiss the slender lips. It was a very tender kiss in the morning. It was definitely the right decision to come back and cuddle.
"um"
"I'm afraid I'll do more than this, afraid I'll hurt you," the handsome face said as he pulled back.
"Hmm, then quickly carry me outside." It's not good to stay in this position for too long.
Kel's Instagram followers increased because of the pub's customers. When Kel clicked on his profile, he saw his latest follower was a male model. A famous person followed him back, and, of course, he had to check him out. Most of the time, Gun posts solo photos... until Kel scrolled and found a photo of Gun with a sweet-faced guy.
"Who is this person?" Kel asked, curious.
"Hey, he's a model friend from a different modelling agency." This is a photo that Gun took with Toey at Namwan's birthday party that year.
"He’s cute, but too close." This was something he didn't like very much.
"Are you jealous? It’s Tin's wife," Gun quickly said before any misunderstanding.
"Jealousy, even though it's been a long time."
Judging by the time passed, there shouldn't be any jealousy, but Kel is still jealous.
"Then I guess I have to be jealous of your ex, too. It's even more worrying that you said you broke up and are still friends."
"Oh, how did we end up talking about me again?" Turns out, Kel is the one being suspected.
"If you're going to go live, then go live," Gun changed the subject because he didn't want to think about it too much. If he could measure his jealousy, he was sure he was very jealous of Kel. That's more than enough reason for Kel to be jealous of him.
"Gun, go inside quickly. Don't just sit there staring like that, I'm getting shy."
"Okay," Gun reluctantly walked into the bedroom since he was going to watch it on the screen anyway. Kel set up the camera on the table in front of the TV, then sat on the carpet for convenience before pressing the start command. He blinked and looked at the camera.
"No one's come in yet," the small mouth murmured to himself.

Oh my god, the first person to watch is the one who just went into the bedroom. Kel glared at the camera, annoyed at the single viewer. But when more people came in, he quickly composed himself and smiled broadly.
ww_xxd: Hello, lovely person!
"Hello," Kel began.
sasssbiw: I miss you, P’Kel.
"I missed you too, Bew. How are you?" he asked his junior DJ.
zine_zinder joined
"Wow...Sai came to check it out too! It's a holiday today, so he can finally relax and unwind from work. Yay!"
I couldn't resist teasing my friend, Sai, about work. He complains about it but refuses to quit. He always gives the excuse that if he quits, he won't have money to spend on his boyfriend.
nn.num: I miss you so much! Haven't seen you in so many days.
Viviw: Is this your condo, Kel?
zine_zinder: I'm craving alcohol.
"Sorry, I'm busy these days," he teased his close friend.
Crack!
The tall person opened the door with a nonchalant expression, as if deliberately trying to cause trouble. After a while, they walked towards the kitchen area. The shorter person glanced at them before turning back to their phone. Time continued to pass on the screen, and comments poured in. A knocking sound rang out again, prompting Kel to look away from the screen.
maxisyourboy: "Kel, you're not looking at the camera much. What are you looking at?" But when he turned around, he was met with this question. I knew someone would be curious. I couldn't help but look at Gun.
"Uh... well, my younger brother slept over last night." I'll lie for now.
zine_zinder: Okay, turn the camera towards Pao.
In this comment, he's asking for forgiveness. Sai already knows Pao and probably wants to see his face, but how can he see him when the person he is with is not the same person he used to be? Besides... he hasn't even told his friends about his attachment to the model yet.
"Ahem," the tall man cleared his throat softly. Kel glared at him again, still in front of the camera. The troublemaker smiled before walking into the bedroom.
"I miss everyone too. I haven't been to the club lately, so I'm just saying hi on the weekend. Everyone, go to club XX! DJ..."
"They're all gorgeous!" A pleasant voice began promoting the nightlife.
Tantawan_0011: Cute.
"Thank you. I don't have as much time as I used to these days."
Viviw: Stay with me. I have time for you.
There were tons of flirty and teasing comments, but they were all from people I'd met at the club.
Mhor.Ohm: Are you single?
"Doctor Ohm, don't cause any trouble," he immediately said when he saw a familiar face commenting.
zine_zinder: Wow, Kel’s ex's here!
**x1: Who is your ex-boyfriend, Kel ?**
xxx2: Why did you break up?
xxx3: I'm a fan of Ohm and Kel. I've been following them since my school days.
Mhor.Ohm: Tell me, why did you break up?
"Do doctors even have free time?"
After that, almost everyone asked about my ex. They wanted me to tell them why we broke up and why they still leave annoying comments as if we were close friends.
As for Ohm, he planted the bomb and then excused himself to go to work. If we're talking about it, he can tell us what happened.
"Okay, okay, I'll tell you. Back then, I was really sulky. I was even upset that Ohm didn't have time for me. Looking back, I hate that I was like that. I couldn't even understand him about time. Sigh... If Ohm is still listening, I want to say I'm sorry for being so petty. I know how busy studying medicine is. Anyway, I'm happy for you that you found someone new who's better than me." There was no sadness, only the same smile that was still reflected in the camera.
Mhor.Ohm: I'm single now. If you want to get back together, I'd be happy to.
xxx3: Screaming!
zine_zinder: Am I serious???
Crack!
Gunapong opened the door again. He'd been possessive from the first comment to the last, so possessive of that camera smile he wants to keep him all to himself, possessive of his cute and charming face. He's especially possessive of Kel when he laughs and talks to the viewers, and now he's incredibly jealous that Kel is talking about his ex-boyfriend during his live stream.
Copper_ppp: Come home sometime. I haven't seen you in days, younger brother
"Are you done yet? I'm hungry," Gun asked, his voice interrupting. Kel was more surprised by something else: the person standing there with a troubled expression, or by Pao's comment.
"I have to go now. Bye-bye." He ended the live stream immediately, resolving the issue. He didn't even know when Pao had joined the stream; it just happened out of nowhere.
Comments popped up saying they hadn't seen him for days. It turned out he had just lied to the viewers, saying his younger sibling slept over last night.
"Do you still love him? Your ex-boyfriend?" The tall man showed clear displeasure, his face stern and intimidating.
"Calm down. Nothing I said just now indicated that I still love him," Kel got up from the carpet and walked awkwardly towards Gun.
"I don't like it when you talk about him. I'm ready to fight anyone, except the person in your heart... I probably can't win against him."
"The person in my heart is Gun," the shorter person explained, looking up. Their heights were very different.
"To be honest, we've never really talked about our relationship status."
This time, I have to be frank. There was only silence.
"The reason I didn't ask you to be my boyfriend was that I was afraid it would be too soon. But now I'm more afraid that you'll miss him more."
That's Gun's heartfelt reason for not asking Kel to be his boyfriend yet. Because they've only known each other for a short time, even though their relationship is more than just dating, Gun really wants a more defined status right now.
"I only have Gun, I'm not thinking about anyone else."
"So why don't we date? I want to go public."
He wanted to tell everyone that Kel was his boyfriend; he wanted to date him openly; he wanted to hug him without others knowing.
"Gun is a model, I'm just his manager. It wouldn't be good if other people found out about us. I'm only worried about Gun because he's my public person."
"I belong to you, and you alone." He didn't want to use the term "public figure" because it made him uncomfortable; models have private lives, too.
"Gun must be jealous that I mentioned my ex-boyfriend, that's why he's so upset. Okay, I won't talk about it again."
"You don't want to be in a relationship with me?" he asked directly.
"It's not like that. I'm just not ready yet." The issue is his position as the model's manager, which is preventing him from taking the relationship to the next level.
"I guess I'm asking too much," the big man complained.
"I think we're seeing things from different perspectives."
"I want to take care of you. I want to take care of my wife."
"Gun..." It was the first time Kel had heard the word "wife" come from the young model's mouth. He had never even imagined that Gun would want to reveal it. He wanted others to know, but now he's the one who doesn't dare do anything. He's afraid it will fall apart... afraid Gun’s life will never be the same.
"But if you're not ready, it's okay. I'll ask again later." There was nothing he could do.
"Wait a little longer. I don't want to see a famous model get negative publicity just because he's dating his manager." Kel felt like crying.
Let's get it over with. This heavy burden is weighing heavily on my chest.
"No matter what happens between us, I don't want to lose you," the deep voice said.
*Grab!*
"I'm not going anywhere. I'll stay right here. I'm sorry I can't say yes yet. I'm sorry that everything between us is so difficult." Kel hugged the person in front of him, his sweet eyes beginning to blur. Tears welled up because he didn't want Gun in the news with his personal manager. If that day came, he wouldn't be able to bear the thought of being the reason this model's future was ruined.
