The Climb Back to Your Heart

Chapter 8

"Please remember that I need a boyfriend figure to show my friends," Kiefer begged Hamsih while they're on their way to SM Sky Ranch "I will only try little kitten, now relax." Hamish tried to assure Kiefer's worries but he didn't. Keiefer worried even more. The nearer they get to the Mall, the more Kiefer felt like withdrawing. But he can't let Maya down. Not Maya.

"Kiefer! Over here!" Keiefer can hear Josh's voice even from afar. Well, he gets that Josh is a Martial Artist and so his body is big. But why does his voice have to be big as well? Kiefer glanced back to Hamish and he saw a slightly smiling Hamish and waving his hand to his friends. "This will go well" Kiefer internally cheered.

"Well, Let's get in!" Maya is so excited about this double date. And so is Kiefer after Hamish's smile assured him. Kiefer held his hand and they went on.

Hamish was nearly stoned when Kiefer held his hand, "Is this part of being a 'couple'?" Hamish is clueless about what to do as a 'good boyfriend', all he knew was to f**k numerous women and f**k Kiefer.

The first ride was the Sky Ranch. "We'll ride one each!" Maya said while handing tickets to Kiefer and Hamish. "Gosh Maya, why do you have to such a spoiled only child?" Kiefer laughed internally. Maya was aware that Hamish is rich but she still payed for all the tickets. "Ride on!" Kiefer went on first but Hamish was giving him the 'no' look, and Kiefer gave him the 'remember the deal?' look and Hamish finally hopped on. Maya and Josh took the next ride.

Kiefer was like a child, looking down on, admiring the view. Hamish, well, he was only looking at Kiefer, crossed arms and emotionless. "People used to say couples that kisses on the top of Sky Ranches usually end up being together forever" Kiefer said while looking down, not having eye contact with Hamish. Hamish just listened and was finally bored by the slow moving machine.

Kiefer was expecting Hamish to kiss him somehow. But he knew he wouldn't. They were past the peek and Hamish didn't move. Not even an inch. Kiefer allowed himself to be internally disappointed. Of course he wouldn't. Hamish wouldn't even be here if it wasn't all about the act.

"Let's go to the Lolly Swing!" Maya is so energetic about stuff like this. Josh, well, he's used to her, plus, he loves her. But Kiefer, he has been worried about Hamish since this is not his kind of fun. His fun is in BED.

The four of them gave their tickets and hopped on to the Lolly Swing. This time, there weren't any hesitation from Hamish. This gave an even better feeling to Kiefer that he's enjoying even for a bit.

They went around and round. Kiefer has been enjoying the wind that he didn't notice behind him, Hamish enjoying himself too, feeling the wind on his face with the warmest smile possible.

They got down and is taking the next ride "I want the Drop Tower!" Maya went on and everyone followed her. She's like the girl version of Adam.

Time passed and it was time for lunch. "Where do you guys wanna eat?" Maya asked energetically, like she wasn't drained from all those rides. "Anywhere you want Maya." Kiefer replied, "Jollibee!" Maya exclaimed which Kiefer regretted right away. Hamish is not a person who would enjoy such a kiddie place. He must prefer something else, something grand. Like those in a hotel. Gosh he'd rather eat in a hotel than in a fast-food. Kiefer glanced at him, worry is painted on his face. Hamish's face was blank. No emotion, no feeling of disgust or excitement. Just 'meh'.

They entered Jollibee and ordered things they'd want. It was a miracle fir Kiefer that Hamish even ordered.

They ate all their meal and gosh, it was movie time! They were on their way to the movies. Gosh Kiefer was excited. There are still different movies to choose from. They then decided on a movie and was buying popcorn when Hamsih spoke for the first time in this date, "I'll have to go for now little kitten." "To where?" Kiefer asked him. He doesn't what him to go yet. The date is not nearly done. "Work." Hamish secretly handed Kiefer another ₱50,000. "Have fun" with two words. Hamish left and Kiefer was left.

Maya noticed Kiefer alone and Hamish is nowhere to be found, "Where is he?" Kiefer looked a bit sad, "Oh, he had something urgent to do at work, let's just watch the movies."

Maya went back to her energetic self. But she felt like something was off this whole time. Hamish didn't seem to enjoyed this date. She looked at Josh and saw the handsomest being in the world, smiling, enjoying himself. So what went wrong with Hamish?

The movie started and Kiefer started to feel lonely. So lonely that he wanted to embrace himself in the warmest bed on the planet. But it was Hamish, he can't do anything about it. He just hoped that... That even for a bit... Hamish would actually come back and say " It can wait." But no. The more Kiefer waited on the door, the lonlier it gets.

The movie was finished and as expected, Hamish didn't come back, nor did he texted Kiefer. Of course, Kiefer tried to understand but Hamish wouldn't let him. Once Kiefer tries to understand one thing, he makes another thing that is never understandable.

He got home, Hamish wasn't home yet. Of course, he's a work. Kiefer decided to use his new oil paint. He unwrapped a new canvas, placed it on the canvas holder, took his pallette knife and started staring contest with the canvas.

Minutes went by and he finally smothered oil paint on the canvas. He decided to use impasto to reveal the pain he is going through. To make it seem like it was coming on to him, existing.

It was already late in the afternoon. Nearly evening. Kiefer was still working on his painting. He decided to rest an read afterwards. After jumping out of the wooden chair, something caught his eye. It was the matching bracelets he bought. He looked at it for a few minutes and threw them on the bin beside his desk. And crawled on the bed. Feeling the sheets, inhaling the scents he and drifting off to sleep.

Hamish finally came home. He asked the butler if Kiefer had returned and what time. Hamish was pleased to know that he was home with Kiefer in his room. Hamish decided to go up to Kiefer's room.

Hamish knocked on the door but there weren't any reply and so he welcomed himself and barged in. He saw Kiefer asleep on the bed and saw the painting he was working on. It was amazing. Somehow, looking at the painting made Hamish feel something he felt years ago. What was it? Pain? Loneliness? Sadness? He can't tell which one. But one look on the painting made him feel different emotions. Gave butterflies in his stomach. It was as if he was back in his dark childhood days. He wandered around the room and he finally reached the desk. Beside it, caught Hamish's attention. He saw the matching bracelets that Kiefer bought for them. Hamish looked at it for quite a long time until Kiefer started to groan. He's awake.

Kiefer sat up to see Hamish in his room. "You're home. How's work?" "Good" Hamish replied to him in a very flat tone as he started approaching Kiefer. Hamish sat on the bed, a scent of a woman around him catched Kiefer's nose but Kiefer didn't mentioned it and kissed him. "You paint well little kitten," Kiefer turned red like a tomato. They continued to kiss until Kiefer's back was once again lying down on the bad. The difference, well, Hamish is on top of him. Kissing him passionately.

Hamish took his shirt off and went back to kissing Kiefer. He felt like he needed Kiefer. He felt like he hasn't touched him in years. His hand started to slip inside Kiefer's shirt and he ended up removing it. He can't feel any resistance from Kiefer, it was like he belonged to Hamish for all his life. Hamish's kisses felt nice and warm but painful like daggers at the same time. Kiefer doesn't know which one to think.

Hamish's lips kissed Kiefer's neck. Kiefer released a soft moan through his lips. They both continued until both of them are completely naked. Kiefer wanted to feel the moment with Hamish but the female seductive scent coming from Hamish pierced his heart millions of times. Every touch, it stings. Every kiss, it tore him apart. Every breath, scliced through his heart.

Kiefer was so occupied by his thought that he didn't notice Hamish entering him. "Focus on me. Don't think of anything else little kitten." Hamish pushed through him and Kiefer let out a moan, like always. This it again. The familiar friction that Kiefer always felt when they are one. But this time, it felt a bit... Less... Close to his heart. Well, Hamish has boken it, perhaps he no longer has a heart.

They continued to 'enjoy' the moment until both of them, once again, reached their climax.

Hamish laid down beside him and relaxed. Something he hasn't done since the beginning of this relationship. Well, he usually get dressed already after s*x. But today he chose lay down beside him.

"Do you have plans with your friends this festival?" Hamish asked Kiefer. Kiefer quickly looked at Hamish. In shock. "Why?" Kiefer asked, "Well, I was planning on watching the floats with you this 25th. You can refuse if you have plans alrea-" "I'll go!" Kiefer answered enthusiastically.

Somehow, all his worries about Hamish suddenly went away. And so did the night.
