He felt a light touch on his shoulder and as he looked back Zhang Qiling was standing there. His eyes twinkled when he smiled. The night sky being lit up by the new years fireworks.

"There you guys are! I was looking for you after I got the food. Ahh, it's so crowded I almost didn't find you guys." Pangzi said slightly out of breath. Qiling removed his hand as Wuxie walked towards Pangzi.

"I told you we should have all went but you wanted to sneak out to meet some girl." Wuxie grumbled and took the food bag. "Come on Xiao-ge, let's eat." Qiling walked over and sat next to him ignoring Pangzi who pouted.

"Aren't you gonna share with me? I went for it you know." Pangzi sat next to them as the fireworks continued to go off in the sky. "Oh right, I saw Xiao Hua and Hei Yanjing. They seem to hit it off well." Pangzi nudged Wuxie who just rolled his eyes.

"Ofcourse they did, Xiao Hua is rich and Hei Yanjing does almost anything for money. I think he told me they were going on a tomb raid soon. Xiao-ge, here have this." Wuxie gave Qiling a dumplin before Pangzi had the chance to take it.

The days were peaceful. Some times they would have sleep overs, others they would go out on little adventures, but it seemed that Qiling was abit unusual. It didn't seem to be a big change but it still caught Wuxie's attention. Qiling's hand would sometimes brush against his, or he would grab his waist as they moved. Sometimes he would pat his head and even squeeze his cheeks but the strange thing was, he only ever did any of that when no one was watching. Wuxie didn't know if he should ask or if he was just being too self conscious. He shook his head and looked up only to meet the same boy's eyes that was making him think so much. Qiling tilted his head.

"Tenzhen! What's taking you so long?!" Pangzi called from next to Qiling. They were suppose to go to a small rune not too far off and he was in charge of getting their equipment.

"Well if you came and helped I wouldn't take so long!" Wuxie shouted back as he slung a bag on his shoulder and was about to bend down for the other one when he felt fingers lightly glide down his wrist to his fingers, taking the handle of the bag from him. When he looked up Qiling was already half way to the van. Wuxie straightened up and walked over, packing the bag and then jumped into the front seat. Pangzi closed up the doors and sat in the driver's seat, starting up the engine.

"Xiao-ge, are you inside?" Pangzi asked as he looked behind and saw him already sitting with his sword next to him. "Alright, lets head out!" Pangzi shouted as he drove off.

Zhang Qiling's Pov-

I leaned back and closed my eyes as I tried to clear my mind, it did not help. Wuxie. He was all I had thought about for those 10 years in the bronze door and after finally seeing him again I was overjoyed but it seemed as I spent more and more time with him... there was this feeling of wanting to be closer. I would sometimes touch him or brush past him to satisfy myself but it seemed that it wasn't enough. The little bit of warmth from those moments faded as fast as it happened. As I sat in the back of the van my thoughts were filled with him. His fingers were thin and fair. It felt a little cold when I touched him earlier. Maybe he's cold. I leaned forward slightly and looked at Wuxie. His eyes were closed.

"Pangzi, Let Wuxie sleep in the back." I said making him look over only to now realize that Wuxie was indeed sleeping.

"Oh, I guess he was tired still. Ah, I see he still isn't much of a morning person." Pangzi pulled the van over and I got out. I picked him up gently and placed him in the back seat where I was sitting and then jumped in after, putting his head on my lap. "Alright, I'm continuing now." Pangzi said as he looked at us from the mirror with a small smile. I looked down at Wuxie, he was sleeping so soundly. His eyelashes trembled abit but then he let out a soft breath as he tried to snuggle into me. His hands seemed to think my leg was a pillow and he snaked them around it. His touch was slow and it spread warmth to my lower abdominal area. It felt weird but also kind of good.
