"Gege!" Huang ZiTao called out. "Wake up!"
There was a shuffle and a groan. Wu Yifan reached to turn the lamp between their beds on. Squinting, he saw Zitao clutching onto his bed sheets, unaware of the light. His eyes were closed as he continued to call out to Yifan. "Tao. I'm here. What's wrong? It's 3 AM."
"Oh, Kris~ haha..." Zitao grinned sheepishly. "It's nothing. Go back to sleep."
Yifan stared at him.
"What?""Nothing. I'll go back to sleep then." Yifan crawled back into bed.
Not two minutes after he'd shut out the lights, did he hear, "Gege, I'm scared."
The flip of a light switch and there he was again, scrunched up in the bed, his tall frame cowering as if to preserve warmth. Yifan melted at the sight of his younger.
Moving towards Zitao's bed, he grunted, "Scoot over," and Zitao obediently shuffled to the other side, creating room for him. He slid into the warm bed, making himself comfortable, and once again turned off the lamp, leaving the room devoid of any light.
"Kris?" Zitao whispered, turning to face the older boy.
"Hm?" Yifan closed his eyes.
"You'll stay with me, right?"
"Always, Tao." Yifan's voice was sleepy, and he turned to pull Zitao into an embrace. Zitao nuzzled his face into his neck, before promptly falling asleep. Smiling, Yifan pecked Zitao's head and let himself drift off as well.
