Part 3

                                    

                                          


                          
Kit's sitting  at the foot of his bed one leg bent while the other is dangling off it's edge his arms are resting on his bent knee, his visitors are sitting on the only two available chairs in the room, he is listening intently while  Beam is reciting the information he's uncovered. Unfortunately it all rumor and innuendo so it is unsubstantiated they can't use it. She can always say that they were  spread by people who were jealous of her or who didn't like her. None the less because all the rumors had one place in common S-X university it gave him a starting point. There were quite a few night club and love hotels in that area that is where he would begin his search. He didn't have much time to dedicate to this but he would try his best. 
                          
" I'll leave the online search to you guys as I have no one up here to help with this." Kit thought for a few more minutes then took some notes on his phone, satisfied that he had everything that he needed he turned to his friend " Okay guys, I've got everything I need from you. Now get the fuck out of my room, my boyfriend and I have plans to spend the weekend together."
                          
Both Beam and Pha laughed to see how eager Kit was to get rid of them, "I can't believe this is you Kit, you are so sweet with that guy. What did he give you to eat or drink?" Kit turns hard eyes towards Pha, " First of all his name is Ming Kwan, don't forget it. Don't ever refer to him as 'that guy'. Secondly whatever he's given me to eat or drink has nothing to do with you." Pha had a look of surprise on his face, the three of them had always supported one another, this was the first time that Kit had been harsh toward any one of them to protect someone else. It must really be love. "Sorry bro, I meant no harm, won't happen again." Pha declared with hands raised in surrender. The boys got up ready to leave, " Kit, thanks again for helping me out." Pha stated.
                          
"Forget about it Pha, that's what friends are for. Anyway I'll make some calls first thing Monday morning." Kit walked them to the door, "Don't worry Pha even if we can't find anything both Beam and I will make sure that you are free of that woman, you don't know how long I've been waiting for your go ahead." Beam nodded in approval of Kit's words, while Pha got teary eyed. "Okay don't get emotional on me. Now get the hell out." The friends once again laughed at Kit's outburst and walk out. Pha and Beam were waiting for the elevator both lost in thought when the door pinged and opened, Ming walked out he once again greeted his seniors and walked to his boyfriend's room. 
                          
When the boys got back to Beams car, Pha was starting to feel the weight of what he was undertaking, " What should we do now Beam? I really don't want to go back to my room."
                          
" I understand that Pha, but we don't want her to know what we suspect you need to stay there." The young man took in a deep breath thinking about what his friend said, " Beam?"
                          
"Yeah, what is it?"
                          
" I just thought of something. What if it's not only listening devices in my room?"
                          
" Fuck!" Beam thought for a moment, " If she has cameras I think they are only for watching I don't think she'd record you and I don't think whatever she has is on a long range receiver otherwise she would not need people watching and following you." Beam knew that was not completely true, but he didn't want Pha more worried than he already was. After a moment Beam continued, " She may have a recording device in your car though that would explain why she tries to get in there at least a couple of times a week." The boys sat in the car deep in thought, when Beam finally said " I think we might need some more help. Some of the guys from engineering do computer technology don't they?"
                          
" Yeah... But who can we ask?"
                          
" What about Forth? He should know someone." 
                          
Pha frowns, he did not want to get involved with Forth at the moment, and as for asking for help from said man when he was still not over the man's boyfriend not a good idea. Pha knew if he said no outright he would have to explain to Beam why, he went with the easiest answer, " I would like a couple of days to think it over Beam. I don't want to many people involved, I also need to know that we can trust those we will ask for help."
                          
" Okay anything you say. But don't think to long, time's a wasting." Beam started the car and drove back to Pha's building, when they got there they sat in the car for a moment, " Pha, will you be  okay?" Pha was a bit discouraged at the moment, " I don't know. I thought finding something on her would be a piece of cake, I never thought it would turn my life into an Ian Fleming novel."
                          
The young man shook his head and wondered what his parents had gotten him into. Some  crazy bitch who was obsessed at having dominance over him, so much so she was spying on him, not only that if the rumors were true she was also selling herself. He heaved a sigh, " Beam keep me company, I don't want to be alone with my thoughts, I'll go crazy."
                          
Beam had spent lots of time in Pha's room while they studied but Kit had always been there as a buffer. He did not want to reject his friend at this time, but he was afraid of being alone in such close quarters for any period of time, never the less, " Okay, I'll stay for a bit, but you need to feed me I am famished. Also remember we can't discuss the present situation."  Now the boys new that there were spies everywhere they carefully looked around the lobby for anyone who looked suspicious, that girl must still be looking for them or she'd gotten in trouble with her master, because there was no sign of her anywhere.
                          
Once in Pha's room they ordered pizza. It was hard to find a neutral topic of conversation so they were quiet until there was a knock at the door, " who is it?" Pha inquired, " Pizza." the delivery guy was paid and sent on his way. while the boys were eating Pha began to speak, " Beam I want to thank you for staying by my side during those last few weeks, although I was being an asshole of a friend." Beam frowned wondering what had gotten into Pha, any way he still answered " Pha we're friends have been for longer than I can remember, I'd do anything for you."
                          
The young man was in a very vulnerable place of late, he found himself constantly needing comfort and reassurance. Without realizing it Pha has placed his hand on Beam's thigh and poor Beam is having a hard time both literally and figuratively speaking, because of the warmth radiating from Pha's hand. He knew it meant nothing to Pha and that it was only a friendly touch, but these things happened when you were alone with the person you love and they had their hand close to your groin whether intentional or not. Beam realized that Pha must be having a hard time with everything that was happening because he would not normally be an emotional person nor was he the touchy- feely type. Beam knew his friend was stressed that's why he chose not to make a big deal out of the contact.
                          
After the boys were done eating, Beam ask Pha to help him with some topics he was having some trouble with, it was done so that he would not have time to think to much about the things that he could be doing with Pha while alone with him in his room. After staying as long as he dared  he bid good bye to Pha. He did not want to end up saying or doing something he would regret later. he did not want to be hated by the person he as in love with. 
                          
When Beam left Pha felt lonely he'd always loved his own company, but today for the first time that he could remember, he wished he was not alone. He wishes Beam could have stayed with him. In recent weeks they'd grown closer to each other. Kit barely spent much time with them these days. He was thankful that Beam was there to help him keep it together. Pha found that his thoughts had started straying to Beam quite a lot since their reconciliation when it first began to happen he wondered why that was, but now he no longer did. His mind kept telling him that Beam was was all he had left that he should keep him close and not let him go. Pha had a fear that he did not even know was there until recently, he did not want to lose Beam.
