Don’t Misunderstood! - Chapter 137
After hearing the story about the apparently haunted mansion, the crew members look around them as if trying to catch a glimpse of the ghost secretly lurking in here
Their nerves were tensed to the maximum. Although Klein said that it should not be possible, they still can’t help but feel like it might be true
I mean, there is the story and there is also an eyewitness. Although they were still skeptical, it was still almost impossible for them to not think that it might be true even just by a little
Klein looked at the people around him, showcasing his acting skills that have been honed thanks to the series they are making though inside him he was already laughing a bit
“Come on guys, I’m sure that story is just a legend. We’re old enough not to believe about it” Klein said in a dismissive manner but everyone was not thoroughly convinced ‘especially’ Shane that grabs Klein in the shoulders
“Klein, are you crazy? How could you have us shoot in this haunted manor? Please, if I’m going to die, I don’t want it to be because of a ghost thirsty for revenge. If I’m going to die, I at least have to die prettily and I sure am would have an irregular expression on my face if I die from a heart attack after encountering a ghost. That’s not necessarily the death I want to have!”
As if he was treating Shane as an overreactor, Klein rolled his eyes while removing the devilish ‘claws’ in his shoulders
“If I know that you are going to die from ghosts, I would have gone to find ghosts years ago!” Klein replied annoyedly
“Okay, everyone, we are not silly kids anymore, alright? There’s no ghost and I mean, look at Shane. Doesn’t she look like the type of woman that would exaggerate everything that she had seen?”
Klein’s words were very convincing and Shane almost blew her cover. How dare her friend ‘smear’ her name?
This ungrateful bastard that she was helping!
As such, the crew members looked at each other while nodding their heads. Indeed, Shane looks like the type of woman that would do what Klein said earlier and their earlier fear foe the ghost has vanished snd they went to go back to whatever they were doing earlier
“K-Klein, I hate you. If I ever see a ghost here, I’ll convince them to scare only you!” Liam swore fearfully while making sure to stick as close as possible to Tristan that became his pillar of support
“Oh please, I’m sure you would just scream and faint while peeing your own pants if you did see a ghost” Klein retorted with an eye roll and Liam pouted his lips. He also thinks that Klein’s words were the thing that is most plausible to happen
“Damn it, you made me look like an embarrassing bitch. I swear that I really saw a freaking possessed doll. I’ll be laughing at all of you when you encountered it!” Shane swore while pointing at everyone in their group of friends
“B-but for now, don’t you leave my side. I’ll sacrifice you if I saw the haunted doll again” Shane said to Cain that saluted at her
“Yes, ma’am. You can just go and hug me tight when you see the ghost!”
Everything goes back to normal soon and it was as if they have forgotten everything that Shane said earlier as they continue having fun
——-
Hours later, when the ‘fun’ finally ended, the crew finally decided to head back into their rooms and rest
They might have partied tonight but tomorrow is a weekend and they still have to continue shooting the series
Klein was walking in the back when he felt someone grabbing him. He yelped a bit but his mouth was soon covered with a palm as his back was pushed against the wall
“Sshh” Calix whispered with a finger in his lips and Klein raises his brows
After making sure that Klein would not make any loud sound, only then did Calix let go of him
“Are you into sneaking or something?” Klein questioned and Calix flicked him on the forehead
“Silly, I just want to spend time with you… alone” he clarified and Klein immediately raises his guard up
Calix notices that and for the second time, he flicks Klein’s forehead
“Don’t let your imagination go wild. I don’t mean something dirty…” Calix said before chuckling. “Though I’m up for it if you want to” he continued while touching Klein’s chin with a finger
“I know. I know you have always been a dirty man” Klein retorted while releasing a long breath that made him look like he want to laugh
“So… is that a yes or a.. yes?”
“You’re not giving me that much of a choice so I’ll answer yes, I guess?”
Calix chuckled. Although Klein seems to be angry at him and plotting something for whatever reason, maybe, making an effort to make a romantic moment together would make up for it?
Calix is hitting two birds with one stone. He could enjoy a private time with Klein and he could also lessen this man’s hidden anger
“Anyway, what is your plan?” Klein questioned and Calix shrugs his shoulders
“With our busy schedule, I wasn’t able to plan since if I ever did, I would have to be very discreet about it for an obvious reason” Calix explained while pointing an invisible finger at Klein
“It wasn’t much of a plan and it’s a spontaneous one but we could go into the roof and gaze at the moon or something. I might have also prepared snacks in there that are already waiting for two people to eat them”
A faint smile appeared in Klein’s face though he immediately put it away which was useless since Calix already saw it anyway
“Not much of a plan indeed but I’ll still give you a C”
“I didn’t know that Mr. Keon Arceus Ferrer is a man of high standards and is hard to please” Calix joked
After messing with each other, the two immediately went into the rooftop which took them quite some time, considering how big the mansion was
When they arrived, there was already a large piece of cloth with a basket of food in the middle
It wasn’t much but just the thought that Calix put an effort into him made Klein’s heart warm
As such, Klein decides to forget about the ‘big issue’ first… for now. This and that are separate matters and Klein is clear about differentiating them
“May I have the honor of basking under the moonlight with my, Prince?” Calix joked while stretching out his hand for Klein to grab
“Since my Duke is begging me for it, this Prince wouldn’t be heartless to refuse” Klein joked back and Calix guided him to their sitting place
They sat on the large cloth and Calix opened the basket’s cover to show the contents inside
“Fries, sandwiches, and chicken popcorn. Interesting but it would be better if you personally cooked it” Klein commented and Calix raises his brows
“Is this your way of asking me to cook for you?” Calix asked with a chuckle and Klein shrugs his shoulder
“Maybe I think that I am always cooming food for you and kind of wondering if I could have you do it for me too”
Calix shook his head with a smile. “As much as I want to exert effort for you, cooking isn’t necessarily my best skill. It can’t reach at least 1/1000th of what you can make”
For Calix, the food that Klein made is still the best. If he were to cook for him, the difference might be the same as a 2-year-old child’s cooking and a 5-star chef
Klein just shook his head at that before taking some fries with his finger and turned to look at the moon above
“Well, not exactly a romantic setting with a new moon that we almost couldn’t see” Klein commented, thinking it was a pity
This moment would have been better if the moon is in full bloom
“Come on, don’t nitpick on everything” Calix cried out. He knows that this wasn’t exactly the most romantic thing, okay?
Klein shakes his head at that as he looks straight into Calix’s eyes. “I was actually just overwhelmed by the effort you are giving for our relationship when I’m not exactly you know… doing my best for it, for us” Klein said honestly and Calix grabs his hand and holds it
“You have your own troubles and complicated thoughts but it doesn’t mean that you are bad. I mean, I saw how you push other guys that like you. Just giving me this chance is already like a big blessing on my part”
Klein smiled at that and he too holds Calix’s hands. “Can you wait for a little bit longer? I’ll promise to give you what you want…” Klein trailed and he finish it inside his mind. “…. after I finish you for lying and deceiving me though”
