Zhan continued to push the Yibo on top of him. He knew Wang Yibo's strength but he didn't imagine it could be that strong.

That young man held him captive on the ground, pressing his body, subduing him in a way that he couldn't escape while he devoured his lips, sucking, nibbling, stealing his breath.

- Stop.- He gasp for air- Yibo, stop. I don't want to hurt you.

- Would you really be capable of hurting me?.- He gently bit the black-haired boy's neck.

- Let me go.- He closed his eyes.- It is not in your interest to make me angry.

- Does that mean you're not angry yet?.- He smiled.

- Damn it.- He kicked.- Let me go!

- Is that really what you want?.- Yibo stopped and stared at him.- Do you really want me to let you go?-. His expression turned serious.- Because I can do it, I can let you go.- He looked him in the eyes.- But once I do, you can be sure that I'll leave too and I won't come back. Is that what you want?

- .......- He swallow nervously.

- Fine.- He nodded.- Your silence says it all. I'll let you go.- He stood up, kneeling between Zhan's legs.- I'll never force you to do something you don't want to. If I kissed you the other times back then it was because I saw clearly from your face that you wanted it.- He smiled.- I would never force you in my life Zhan.- He nodded.- If what you want is for me to let you go, then I'll let you go.- He was about to get up.

- Wait...- He sat up in front of Yibo.

- What? Do you want me to go or stay? - His tone was serious. - You have to decide.

Zhan stared at Wang Yibo's serious face, his expression and tone of voice making it clear that he was very serious. He had already seen how determined and mature the brunette was, so he knew that this was not some kind of tantrum. This was serious.

At that moment he felt fear, an immense fear that ran through his entire being. Sitting there in front of Wang Yibo and looking into his eyes, he discovered that his fear of losing him was much greater than the fear of facing something unknown, a new world.

He had never been afraid of what people would say, it was just an excuse to hide the truth, his real fear. The fear of entering into unknown territory and being trapped there with no way out.

But wouldn't it be worth it to be trapped if he had Wang Yibo by his side? The brown-haired boy had shown him in so many ways that if he decided to take that path, he wouldn't leave him alone. If they had to walk across the single-plank bridge, they would do it together.

- Should I let you go? - Yibo questioned.

- ....No...- His eyes filled with tears.

- Should I stay by your side?

- ....Yes...- His tears ran down.

- Why are you crying? - He brought his hands to Zhan's face and wiped his tears. - I don't want you to say things under pressure. I want you to say it because you really mean it and you love it.

- I want....- He looked down.- I want... you to stay with me.

- Look at me.- He cradle his face in his hands.- Say it while looking me in the eyes, so I can know what you really want.
