The calm ocean waves lapped gently on your feet. The soft chirping of the birds was the only sound that you heard.

"Look here (Y/N)!" your favorite voice snapped you out of your trance. His voice was full of joy.

Just then,

Click

The black haired boy clicked the photo of a (H/C) haired girl with a white camera.

He had an unreadable expression as he looked at the picture.

His face was a mix of emotions, sadness, pain, guilt, longing... A brilliantly painted mess of emotions.

He gripped the camera in his hand, biting his lip.

"Why stare at a picture when you have the real thing in front of you" you walked to him with a smirk. The brown sand touched your feet as you did.

He looked up you, it felt like this was the first time he had seen you after a long time. As if he was waiting for you for so long. His heart hurt, it hurt so much.

"Cheng Xiaoshi?" your voice was soft, you tilted your head in worry.

Before you knew it, his arms reached to your waist, wrapping them around it. He pulled you closer to his body, burying his face on the crook of your neck.

He sighed, inhaling you scent, relishing in it. He was trying to memorize it. He was scared if he didn't, in the future he might forget how comforting it felt.

You in his arms.

He missed it.

He missed all of this.

Yet he only had 12 hours with you.

He wanted to tell you so many things, do so many things, ask so many things..

But right now just having you this close was itself a blessing.

He had fallen in love with you to such a degree that it hurt him everyday not seeing you.

He was a lot of things, a confident person and a positive thinker being one of them.... Yet he never would have thought you could shatter everything he believed in himself by just a few words.

He held your body tighter. The words you told him when you broke up, still haunted him.

It it were anyone else he wouldn't be this phased, but that was the problem. It was you.

His throat was dry and he swallowed his tears.

He had already gone behind Lu Guang's back by entering a photo without him.

If he changed anything it would be a disaster.

So now he would just hold you for a while, then go to the market, laugh with you, then take a walk and hold your hand.....

And then enter the next photo.

"Cheng Xiaoshi are you ok?"

"Hm? I'm fine" he looked up at you with a strained smile. You noticed it but you chose to ignore it. You knew he won't elaborate. It's fine though, you would ask him later, or just wait till he was comfortable.

"I just really love you (Y/N)"

You froze.

You smiled and planted a warm kiss on his lips.
