Capture

"Uhm.. Hello, P, I'm Gun Athapphan. Nice to finally meet you, P'Off", Gun cleared his throat before finally speaking. Handing his hand out to shake hands with the new person in the group. Off gazes at Gun from head to toe then looked at the hand of the handsome young man in front of him. He looked so small in front of Off.

He ignored Gun's gesture and just nodded at him as a sign of acknowledgement. Gun slowly lowered down his hand looking embarrassed.

Mara clapped her hands to get their attention. "Ok, everyone. Get ready. We'll start in 30 minutes."

They all sat down in front of their respective places to get their make up done for the pictorial. Gun and Singto are situated alongside each other.

Krist glanced at Gun and Singto. He can see how they care for each other. He averted his gaze from their direction so he won't lose his focus.

"Hmm.. There's something lacking." Mara uttered after taking a few shots. He stared at the models for a moment, analyzing what to do.

"Ok, let's try this. Kit, you stand beside Singto next Gun then Off. Let's do an intriguing pose like the brand name Temptation", Mara instructed smiling ear to ear like she came up the best idea.

They did as instructed but Krist made sure there is still enough gap between Singto and him.

"Krist, get closer to Singto. Come on!", she said. Seemingly not satisfied with their poses. Singto looked at Krist then  wrapped his arm around Krist's waist to pull him closer. The look of surprise on latter's face was evident but it was just for a moment.

"That's it! Then, turn your head slightly towards Krist. Krist, lean on Sing's shoulder. Gun, tilt your head towards Off. Off, closer to Gun's face, get down a bit". She instructed further. Her proffessionalism taking over her. Krist let out a sigh as they did what Mara instructed.

Krist's heart races as he stood closer to Singto, even more when Singto glanced at him smiling warmly. He could almost feel his heart his throat for it is pounding wildly.

"Damn, oblivious guy! Don't smile at me when you're that close." he exclaimed to himself.

"You alright, Krist?", Off asked pointing at Krist's face which made Singto and Gun turn their gaze to Krist.

"H-huh?", he nervously responded.

"You looked flushed.", he grinned. Giving him a suspiscous look.

"I-.. Uhm.. Must be too much makeup", Krist answered while avoiding Off's gaze.

"Are you sure, Nong?", Singto asked looking worried. He's always been protective of Krist. The latter just nodded awkwardly.

Off grinned even more then shrugged as he went back to his spot to start posing for the camera again.

"Change outfits, guys". Mara instructed after another series of shots.

The production crew handed out drinks for everyone.

"Krist, here's one for you."

He turned around to accept the cold drink.

"Oh, thanks, man!" he uttered as he receive the drink, a bit puzzled that it was Gun who gave the drink to him. He just gave a warm smile instead of addressing Krist's puzzled look.

"Ah, have you seen P'Off?", he asked.

Krist turned the other side to see if Off was there.

"Hmm.. Could be at the restroom?", he answered as they couldn't see Off in his table beside Krist's.

"Alright. I'll just put this here I guess.", he said, placing the drink on Off's table.

Krist looked around and saw his P'Sing glancing at his direction. He gave him a nod so Krist nodded back.

The day is almost over. They were already tired posing and the costume changes.

"And that's a wrap!", Mara exclaimed signaling the end of the shoot.

"Good job, guys!", Mara uttered patting Gun who was standing near her. Everyone shook hands and prepared to leave.

"Hi, baby!", a beautiful woman dressed in a seductive semi gown walked in almost rushing towards Off.

It was the famous actress Namtan. She then kissed Off on his lips. Off welcomed her with a hug and kissed her back.

"Babe, how come you're here? Aren't you supposed to have a shoot for your movie right now?", he asked.

"Hmm.. We have finished early today." she responded letting go from Off's hold.

Krist shrugged off then approached Mara.

"Dinner?", he asked. Mara looked at him then shook her head.

"I'm sorry, Kit. I still have a lot to do. Waiting the photos for submission tomorrow. Can you go without me?" she explained looking hesitant.

"No, it's fine. Will you be alright alone here?", he asked out of concern.

"Yes. I'll be ok. Besides, Tay will be here too. He just couldn't make it earlier cause of a previous engagement but he promised he will help me choose good shots and editing them.", she explained further.

"Alright, then. Don't overwork yourself, will yah?", he responded, giving her an approval. She just nodded, smiling sweetly.

"I'll be going then.", Krist said then he pats her head before leaving the studio.
