50-The Lost Days Of Eros (Part 1/2)

Spring had come, making the flowers slowly bloom while the birds came back for the warmth. Yet for him, it was just another sunny day he had to spend at home. But he was far from complaining. With every morning he would wake up, he'd be faced with Yibo's pretty face. The bad part was that he had given up the bed for him and slept on the couch since he had been sick. He had tried to convince him to sleep together yet Yibo wouldn't budge. 

And that day just happened to be a normal day like any day, but definitely better than any other day. That morning when he woke up, he realised that he was nowhere close to feeling sick. So he went straight to the kitchen to tell the other. 

"You woke up? You seem better." Zhan hummed. "I think my fever has gone away for good." Yibo smiled. "That's what you said the last four mornings and it was as high as it was when you first came. So sit." Zhan took a seat on the couch while Yibo went and came back with a thermometer. 

So Zhan took it and placed it under his armpit while staring at the way Yibo was dressed. "Are you going somewhere?" Yibo oh'ed, shaking his head. He then took a seat beside him. "I actually came back. Was at the company to confront Duyi for the bullshit he'd done- but anyways, the thing with our absence from the media came up. So i ended up announcing our collab to ease the fans of our absence. Although i didn't ask... i just figured that-" 

Zhan shook his head as the thermometer began to beep. "No, you did good. While doing the finishing touches for our song, you were nowhere near to be found and i had ended up loading the work onto myself. So i'm glad you're taking matters into your own hands now. It... relaxes me." Yibo grabbed the red lined glass stick from his hands with a regretful look. "About that time.. i'm sor-" Zhan sighed. "Sorry, sorry- that's all you've ever been saying for the past couple of days. If that was what i wanted to hear, then i would've resisted staying away from you for longer. Be grateful that i'm not stubborn." Yibo glanced at the thermometer and felt relieved that it was below 37 now. So he tossed it aside with a smirk, now concentrating on the man he was captivated by. "Oh- how will i ever make it up to my dear Zhan? Could there be something that he wishes from me?" 

Zhan swallowed at the way he was looking at him with such determined eyes, becoming flustered the moment Yibo leaned in closer on the couch, cornering him swiftly. "T-that.. i..." Yibo waited for a while, just appreciating the way Zhan's shy eyes moved back and forth from his gaze."Then, how about a kiss?" 

Yibo smiled at his flushed cheeks, turned on at his confidence with no stutter. He then held his chin without a question and closed in the gap between their lips. It was just a small peck, yet it was enough to make both of their hearts beat like loud drums. 

After a moment Yibo pulled back and stared him in the eyes. "Was that enough?" Zhan swallowed, shaking his head. And as soon as he did that, Yibo came close once more and began to kiss him more. He softly bit his lower lip, dragging it down while Zhan's arms winded up over his shoulders. He pulled him in by his neck, making Yibo crawl up on the couch. "Mmnn... more-" 

That word was enough to let Yibo's hunger loose, grabbing Zhan by the back of his head and kissing him slightly more intensely. To Zhan, it felt like he was being careful not to hurt him, yet both knew that this was nothing close to enough to making their desires full. So he wanted Yibo to go further, grabbing him firmly from his collar to indicate that. 

In return, Yibo finally gave in and suddenly slid his hand over his neck before squeezing his skin softly. Yet as soon as he did that, Zhan unexpectedly flinched, causing Yibo to withdraw almost immediately. "Ah... t-that i-" 

"I won't force you to anything if you're not ready. So don't feel pressured to go further just yet." But Zhan didn't feel like he wasn't ready at all. He had no idea why he had given the reaction he just did, shaking his head to let him continue. "No wait- that was just-" But just then the phone started to ring, making Yibo stand and pick it up.
