Chapter:7
"Stupid Alex", Bright croaked in his morning voice opening his eyes to the bright sunlight. He stretched and felt muscles around which is when he saw him. Ash was asleep next , one of his hands on his abdomen and the other stretched out in Bright direction. Bright found it hard to focus amidst the headache but he understood that he had spent the night sleeping on Ash arm. The embarrassment surrounded him as he rubbed his eyes trying to remember all that he had done to annoy his husband and his best friend.
Ash felt the weight lift from his arm and his eyes shot open defensively. He didn't have a sound sleep because Bright woke up a couple of times because of nightmares. "Bright", he spoke automatically as he woke up. Bright was still rubbing his forehead when he heard Ash call him. "Yeah...?", he replied. "Did you have a nightmare again?", Ash asked stretching his arms.
"No. I just woke up", Bright muttered and got up from the bed.
Ash yawned and threw himself back on the pillows as he saw Bright make his way to the bathroom. He came out a couple of times to grab his suitcase and then finally rubbing his head with a towel. Water dripped from his forehead onto his shirt leaving small stains.
"I don't usually get drunk, Ash", Bright sighed as he put on the water heater. "I am sorry for whatever you had to endure" Ash was carefully observing Bright movements so when Bright spoke to him, he looked away.
"Hmm...it's okay"
"I am sorry for throwing up on you. I really am", Bright frowned remembering flashes from last night. Ash glanced at Bright and after a minute of silence, a genuine soft smile crept both their lips.
"Yeah...it's okay. I can manage with one less t-shirt", Ash got up from the bed and reached for his bag.
"My father is coming to the Thailand today and he wants to speak to...my husband", Ash spoke as he pulled out his clothes from his bag.
"Me? What does Jones James want to speak to me about?"
"I don't have a clue. But I said that you'll be there if and when you're available!"
"Great. I'll drop by after my meetings with the gang are done"
"Fine. I'll inform him", Ash stole a glance at Bright before he walked into the bathroom.

"Father , Mr.Bright and I have taken all the necessary steps to ensure the survival of all the clans here in the city. I don't think the white Dragon should have anything to worry about", Ash turned to Jones who was seated on Ash chair."This political alliance with the Black dragon is very unlikely to stand. They will never accept our peace offerings", Jones curled his hands into a fist."Well, they will have a good reason to not trust us. The white dragon has been lying to them ever since the war were discovered and God knows maybe before that too. It's quite natural for them to have doubts. However, Type and I are doing everything in our power to ensure transparency and honesty among all the group's that inhabit Thailand""Ash is quite right", Bright walked in on the conversation.Jones got up and greeted him with an expression of shame and guilt on his face.

I'll put in extra care to prevent any Black dragon from interfering with your work""I don't take work home but I'd definitely like a small place to work. And there's no place in the world that is inaccessible to you so I am just going to have to place my trust in you that you won't interfere in my life as I won't in yours", Ash shrugged."Type got your things settled in the room", Bright tried to hide the heartbreak in his voice."Good.

After the party, Ash took Bright to his room and made him lie down on his bed while he got him juice and Pizza. He sat in front of him and stared while Bright finished all the food and then leaned back on the pillows. He was quiet. Ash sighed as he kicked out his shoes and jumped on the bed next to him.
