It was a few days later and as usual, they all went drinking. Even though Sebastian's tolerance got higher than before, he still gets a bit drunk.

Teo told the driver the address. They're on their way home now "Sebastian, are you awake?" He peered down on Sebastian’s face. Sebastian is resting on Teo's shoulder. Teo liked it, he kept smiling to himself and giggling while staring at sleeping Sebastian "Handsome…" He whispered, blush creeping on his face.

♡♡♡

"Oh dear! Anastacio, come help! Oh Seb! So embarrassing!" Anselma panicked upon seeing Teo and Sebastian together on the doorway. With how huge Sebastian was, it was a mystery to her how Teo could help him "I'm so sorry Teo, he's not usually like this!" She tried grabbing Sebastian’s arm but she was weaker than them “Anastacio!” She called.

"It's no problem Auntie, I'll help him to his room" Teo said, continuing to help the drunk guy “I can do it, no problem” He smiles at Anselma to make her not worry.

Anselma called for her husband "Anastacio! Oh where is he? He might be in the bathroom. Are you sure, dear?" She looked at Teo with worry. She then looked at Sebastian “Ay nako, this guy!”

"It's okay Auntie, I got it" Teo smiled again and walked up the stairs, struggling.

♡♡♡

Teo lays Sebastian down on his bed, it was so dark, he couldn't open the lights earlier. Teo panted "Maybe we should stop drinking and do something else for a change…" He sighs to himself.

So this is his room, Teo thought. He can see a little in the dark but not everything. It feels weird being here without him knowing. I better leave.

There were a lot of paintings in the room, there was an easel, some figurines, some books. A lot of paintbrushes, paint cans and tons of sketchbooks in different sizes. 

Is Sebastian… an artist? Then the paintings all over the house…? 

He was about to leave but Sebastian suddenly grabbed his wrist, making him accidentally fall on the bed. Sebastian muttered, "Don't go…" in his sleep.

How strong is he? Teo thought, a blush creeping in "S-Sebastian wake up, I'm stuck" but the other was sleeping soundly, hugging him, "S-Sebastiaaan" his heart was going to burst. Teo looked at the sleeping face of Sebastian and whispered "Wake up" their faces were so close to each other, Teo tried not to move, "He's so good looking even when sleeping" he smiled to himself. Teo's heart feels like it's jumping up and down "Maybe for a bit is okay?" He lets Sebastian cuddle him, feeling warm and comfortable.

♡♡♡

Teo's eyes flung open, it was bright out "Oh fuck" he muttered. Last night, Sebastian was hugging him and he fell asleep. Teo woke up with HIM hugging Sebastian now. He immediately sat up with messy hair and panicked. HOLY CRAP. His mind yelled. He looked at Sebastian, who was still sleeping soundly. His shirt is up a bit, showing his toned abs. Teo blushed, getting even more embarrassed.

Teo looked down on his own crotch and hid it with both his hands. It's because it's morning and that I'm healthy! He covered Sebastian with a blanket and quickly got out of that room with both hands still above his crotch to hide his boner.

♡♡♡

Teo went out of his own room after getting dressed. At the same time, Sebastian went out of his room, yawning and stretching, showing his stomach. Teo instinctively looked and quickly averted his gaze "Goodmorning" he said.

"Good Morning" Sebastian smiled at him. He was happy to see Teo so early in the morning. He was unaware of what transpired last night. If he knew Teo was hugging him in his bed, he would die from happiness.

♡♡♡

"Teo" Sebastian called, Teo was about to leave for work but he stopped "Can I ask you for a favor?" 

Teo nods, still feeling a bit shy to stare at his face since he did another sinful deed earlier "What is it?" He continued to wear his shoes.

Sebastian scratched the back of his neck, his muscles flexing and his shirt rising "There's this event at school" 

Teo doesn't even know where to look anymore "Uh huh" 

"We have to bring other people that aren't from our school. It's like an auction" Sebastian explained but Teo just kept saying 'uh huh' while being distracted, Sebastian continued "So you will be auctioned and that person will take you out on a date or something like that"

Teo nods "S-Sure yeah, I'll go" He didn’t understand a thing.

♡♡♡

"What are the details again?" Teo asked Laurent, they were walking inside the huge campus. The event was 10 minutes away and he had no idea what to do.

Laurent groaned "Didn't you listen to Sebastian?! He said you will be auctioned and the person who bid the highest gets to take you out on a date!" He rolls his eyes. 

"I see, you know Retta studies here too" Teo said "He invited me to this event as well… but Sebastian did too, I guess two birds with one stone" 

"I don't like him" Laurent squinted his eyes "He's childish and we already have that in our group" They continue walking, searching for the venue.

Teo playfully hit Laurent "You?" and laughed "I can't believe you closed the cafe for this?" He raised a brow, confused. It’s just a silly event.

"We're both invited here! This is good publicity too, I'll carry a poster, here take one too" Laurent gave Teo a poster of their cafe to carry while being auctioned.

Teo took it with a sigh, reading the content "Do you and Sebastian text?" 

"Random" Laurent chuckled but he nodded "Yeah we do, why? Are you jealous or something? Oooooh jelly" He teased, giggling from the side.

"No!" Teo answered, almost too quickly "He just never sent me a text again!" Everybody can see he was annoyed.

"Teeoooooo!!!!!" 

Teo and Laurent looked at each other "That voice" 

Someone came in between them and hugged Teo's arm "Hi Teo!" It was Retta.

This brat. Laurent rolled his eyes and pushed Retta away then said "We're late for something, bye!!" Now he’s the one holding Teo’s arm, pulling him away from Retta.

"Wait!" Retta yelled but someone talked to him so he couldn't follow them “Damn it!”

♡♡♡

"That guy is seriously in love with you" Laurent disgustingly groaned "Seriously! Push him away!" 

Before Teo could react, someone called him again.

"Teo!" 

"Sebastian!" Teo's face lit up, he raised his hand and waved at him.

Only Sebastian could do that. Laurent thought and also greeted Sebastian who was jogging towards them.

Sebastian stopped and panted for a second "You made it" He smiled.

"Of course!" Teo answered, almost too happy.

"I'm here too," Laurent joked and laughed.

Sebastian chuckled a little "Oh yes, thank you Laurent" 

♡♡♡

"I'm nervous! I'm a nobody and this is a prestigious school! You're rich, someone will buy you" Teo paced back and forth in front of Laurent. They were at the back stage.

Laurent sighs, "Are you hearing yourself?" He then laughed too and remembered how Retta and Sebastian always fuss over Teo "I'm sure someone will– um– buy you…" 

This is for a good cause, for charity. Teo kept distracting himself in his mind.

♡♡♡

"Next up is Mr. Laurent Rañin! Whoa! Is this who we all think it is?" The host was surprised, and suddenly Laurent grabbed the mic.

"You're right, host! It’s me! The one and only child of the Rañins, at your service" Laurent was charming, as usual. He was holding up the cafe’s poster in his hands, throwing it to the crowd, everybody started fighting for it. The crowd murmurs for a second and everybody starts bidding.

He's so popular!! But he's so ugly in my eyes! Teo thought with widened eyes. Maybe because I know how gross he can be…

"And sold! To that person in the back!" The host said, Laurent then bowed and winked at the crowd before walking down the stage.

Oh shit, it's my turn. Teo's heart starts beating faster, he clenches his teeth and fists out of nervousness. His hands are sweating.

"Next up! Mr. Matheo Pascal!" The host cheered but everybody didn't know who Teo was so there was only a little applause.

Teo frowned a bit until someone quickly screamed "5000!!" 

Everybody in the crowd gasps and starts to murmur. Even the host was surprised "Such a high bid from the start!! Oh my, Mr. Pascal, just who are you? Is he someone’s secret son?!" The crowd laughs at the hosts' jokes.

Retta smirked to himself and thought, Ain't no way someone's beating that!

"7000!" 

Someone from the crowd yelled back which surprised everybody even more. Murmurs and collective gasps echoed in the venue.

Who the fuck is that? Retta panicked and then fought back "10,000!!" 

At this point everybody was going insane. These are such high bids for a small school event. It was for charity but this is not what everybody expected at all.

"Who are these people?" Because of Teo's anxiety, it was hard for him to pinpoint who was bidding. His ears started ringing. He stood stiff on the stage.

"It seems like Mr. Pascal is very popular!!" The host said "10,000 going once–" 

"15,000!" Sebastian gritted his teeth a bit.

Retta gasps "17,000!" and thinks, Back off!

"20,000!" Sebastian yelled back, he won't back down, not ever, especially when it comes to Teo. Nobody else can ever have a date with Teo, nobody!

FUCK?! 20,000?! I don’t have that high an allowance! Retta was so shocked he couldn't speak anymore.

"Sold! 20,000 Pesos for one date! Insane! Thank you so much, this is for a good cause after all! Mr. Pascal, thank you for helping" The host was beyond happy and an eruption of applause took over the venue.

Sebastian muttered a tiny "Yes" under his breath because he won. He knew it was Retta who kept bidding against him.

Ugh! The fuck? Who is that asshole?! I thought I'll be able to go on a date with Teo!! Retta scratched the back of his head and sighed, he stomped and left the grounds angrily.

Teo was shocked as he walked down the stage. Sebastian squeezed through the crowd so he could meet with Teo.

"Sebastian?" Teo asked, his heart was still throbbing loudly from what just transpired. Everything happened so fast, it still hasn't sunk in.

Sebastian smiled at him, "Hey. I was the one who won" He sheepishly smiles at him, feeling embarrassed.

"R-Really?!" Teo cheered and accidentally hugged Sebastian "Thank you! I thought I'd be going with a stranger! I didn’t want to go with someone I didn’t know!" 

Sebastian blushed and stood still until Teo realized and let go. Sebastian then said "I invited you here so you're my responsibility…" He smiled. In truth, he didn't want anybody else going on a date with Teo.

Teo was dumbfounded, his hands felt sweaty, his face felt warm, his heart was beating out of his chest. He rarely smiles but he always smiles at me. And his smile… makes my heart pound.

♡♡♡

"Hmp!!" Retta stomped angrily towards his classroom "Just who is he?!" 

It's probably that guy, in the bar! That Sebastian guy. Retta stopped, squinted his eyes and clenched his fists. He'll pay for this!
