Wei Ying woke up still groggy with sleep and reached for the bottle next to his bed. Alas! It was empty and he struggled to find his feet and get out of bed, thirst making his mouth feel dry and coarse.

Usually he drank a glass of water or milk before bed and that staved off this feeling...he made a face as his feet took him automatically into the kitchen.

But...just as he reached the refrigerator, his bare feet touched something warm...and furry.

It snuffled and crept closer and its cold nose twitched even as its warm tongue came out to lick his foot.

Wei Ying groaned and reluctantly opened his eyes and just barely managed to stifle a scream....

"Lan Zhan! What are you doing here?" He demanded, staring into deep golden eyes, lit only by the light of the refrigerator.

"They wouldn't let me go..." Lan Zhan was cuddling a black rabbit.

To Wei Ying, it looked quite the opposite. Noodle, the black rabbit looked up at him, innocence all over his face when Wei Ying knew he would have instigated the breakout in the first place. Tofu was still kissing his feet, literally, and Wei Ying picked him up, nuzzling his nose with his own.

"Both of you are really naughty." He whispered, kissing Tofu's head and placing him back into their cage...if it could be called that.

It was a mini castle with a picket fence that had been chewed through, and a trail of splintered, chewed out plywood led to the criminal currently being petted by a large hand.

Wei Ying turned back towards Lan Zhan who was staring back at him with heart eyes, a rapturous expression on his beautiful face. But his fingers were snug deep burrowing in black fur and he fondly continued stroking the rabbit, totally in love with the way it was looking back up at him.

"Come on, Lan Zhan...give him up." Wei Ying wiggled his fingers at both of them.

But Lan Zhan turned away...

A whole body turn...

Wei Ying giggled...a grown man, especially one so hot...acting like a child.

"Alright, you can have him for five more minutes while I refresh their water and hay. Then he has to go back to Tofu. Okay?" He waited until Lan Zhan nodded. "Good boy."

Lan Zhan could hear Wei Ying doing everything he said he would, but it was background noise because Noodle was a dream come true. The black rabbit looked up at him with same amount of adoration as he was sure was reflected in his own eyes...this rabbit was just as beautiful and beguiling as his owner. So soft and warm and snugglywuggly...

He brought Noodle to his face and a tiny pink tongue came out to lick his nose.

Lan Zhan wanted to die with its cuteness...

"Okay, I'm done..." Wei Ying stood with his hands on his hips, waiting. "Just put him down, he'll go straight to Tofu."

Lan Zhan pouted...but he did as he was asked to.

Wei Ying was right; as soon as Lan Zhan put him down, Noodle bounded towards the other white rabbit, and Wei Ying closed the broken latch. He tutted to himself, muttering words like, 'don't know why I bother' and 'have to get another one' to himself.

And then to Lan Zhan’s surprise, Wei Ying held a hand out to him, rubbing a hand over his tired face.

And how could Lan Zhan say no to him? That was beyond his control.

He stood up, brushing tiny black hairs off his clothes.

"Come with me." Wei Ying said, leading him back towards his bedroom.
