Wild Creatures

Chapter 14

Wei Ying stays a few minutes past the time he's supposed to leave because he promised it earlier, but Lan Zhan can tell, he's dying to talk to Lan Zhan about the stunt he pulled.

Su She locks the door behind them and they walk towards the bus stop.

Wei Ying is practically vibrating next to Lan Zhan.

When they are far enough away, Wei Ying squeals with pent up excitement, jumping into Lan Zhan’s arms.

"I can't believe what you did! Oh my god!" He's so worked up, he decides that words are useless and kissing is a much better idea.

Lan Zhan stops walking, choosing instead to sit on the bench that they had previously used, because then he can fully concentrate on Wei Ying’s mouth. It is doing magical things to his body. Lan Zhan doesn't know if this is a result of his new change, or if kissing Wei Ying would have felt like this anyway, and he smugly believes the second theory.

Kissing Wei Ying...it is so good...he doesn't think anything could compare to it.

It is like floating in the air without the fear of falling.

It is happiness condensed into sensations.

It is everything.

Wei Ying doesn't care about anything right now. Lan Zhan is right here and under his hands, and all he wants is to be able to kiss him forever. Little tingles start buzzing in his chest until they spread out, he is shaking with his need and yet the slide of cool lips is grounding.

"Thank you." Wei Ying breathes out, smiling against his lips.

He is a beautiful man.

Lan Zhan cannot look away from this breathtaking picture, because Wei Ying is simply perfect. His gorgeous silver eyes twinkle merrily at him, as if he knows what Lan Zhan is thinking.

"No need." Lan Zhan whispers.

If Wei Ying was talking about Su She the Slimeball, then that is Lan Zhan’s pleasure. He hates bullies; he would have done something about him anyway. If he's talking about the kiss...well, Lan Zhan would've done that too, anyway.

"I guess we should make a move..." Wei Ying stands up reluctantly.

He holds a hand out for Lan Zhan, who pulls a little too strongly and their lips meet again once more. Lan Zhan likes this.

He likes the way Wei Ying’s eyes light up with a carefree joy, the way his smile is just so innocent. Wei Ying does everything with the whole of himself, whether it is walking, sitting or serving drinks.

Kissing too.

Lan Zhan thinks he has never seen anyone quite so alive before.

Tonight, Wei Ying looks relaxed. He might be tired, but A-Yuan isn't waiting for him at home tonight so he is free with his emotions. There isn't anything weighing him down.

Lan Zhan sees everything Wei Ying feels on his face and it is as startlingly beautiful as a painter's dream.

Together they walk ahead. The bus stop is empty and Wei Ying groans.

"I bet we've missed the bus." He says, with a pout.

It is singlehandedly the cutest thing Lan Zhan has ever seen.

"We can walk. It is a nice night for it." Lan Zhan starts to say....but his eyes fall on that familiar graffiti once more, and he is compelled to go closer.

"Lan Zhan...." Wei Ying is following because they're still holding hands, and yet Lan Zhan can sense his reluctance to go there.

"I need to see." Lan Zhan murmurs.
