...........................Lucas POV .............................

Alek stood in silence,as if in thought before asking me,"Lu,you have been disagreeing with my every word and avoiding me since yesterday.Is it because..."Has he finally realised?That took him 7 years."You ran out of money?!We've been friends for do long you could've told me you needed money!"Alek shook me with as he said this.I could practically feel my soul leaving my body.I don't even know what I should even be feeling at this point right now."I don't need money!"I said in a rather angry voice."Is it that you owe someone money then?"He asked.I wish I could punch him right now."It's none of your business anyway!"I snapped at Alek, pushing him away from me."Of course, it's my business!Lu we've been friends for 7 years now,you need to at least give me a reason why its not any of my business.I...just want to protect you from unruly people like Leon,dont you understand?"He responded with an angry tone. Jeez, why couldn't he just let me be?I should be the one that's angry." But how long can you continue to take care of me?"I said as my body trembled." Would you still treat me this nice once you're married to someone else?!" I grabbed his collar as I shouted at him in a louder voice than I expected. But at this point, I could hardly care, and I could hardly hold back from crying right now. My mind instantly thought of what I saw on twitter last night.What if Alek really got married to that actress?Once I started thinking about that,I couldn't hold back my tears anymore and started crying into Alek's chest." Lu, don't cry. What are you talking about? The two of us are going to be the best brothers for the rest of our lives!"...I think I've just been double killed by him.Whatever,I've known him for 7 years,it's not like I just found out that you're straight."Besides,Leon Lessner is a shady guy,you can't trust him."Alek replied in a casual tone.Looks like he's back to his normal stupid self."But I want to earn money."I replied bluntly.You dense idiot"What about this?If you really want to act,I recall that the last season of "Act" is still looking for a few guests,I can get Mr Tan to arrange for you."He replied.I thought about it for a while before agreeing.Im fine with anything as long as I can get as far away from you as I can.You're driving me crazy from your continuous flirting and idiotic behaviour."That's a good boy.Just tell me if you need anything, okay?Stop sulking."Alek said with a smile as he rubbed my head."I'm not sulking!And why are you rubbing my head?I'm not a kid!"I replied in a alarmed tone.I continued as I got away from Alek"I just don't want you to treat me so nicely,I'm not your son or anything like that so l hope you can stop getting so chummy in the future."And you say you're not sulking?We've been good friends from the say we met till now.I never fought with you before, and it's really difficult to find a brother who understands me so well!"Alek replied with a matter-of-fact tone.I repeatedly told myself to calm down in my mind.Its because I l9ve you that I put up with your idiocy for so slong.Whatever it's not like I can say anything to a straight man who can't even read the room.I mumble"It won't be good if people found out about this."Alek must have heard it as he angrily asked,"How does me treating you well affect you?Is there some gossip about us at the company?Or is it because Leon Lessner is bothering you again?"I answered with a confused tone,"How does Leon have to do with anything?"It seemed like he figured out something as he said"I know its because..."
