Predestination

Misunderstood

After their encounter on the mountain, Yan Zhu doesn't see Xian Xue until the end of next training session. He flies down to see her at the end. She looks upset to see him. She hasn't seen him all week. She thought he was mad at her and was equally mad at him for not talking to her about it, but instead disappearing without a word. But Xian Xue, being innocent, doesn't realize it. He is completely oblivious and is behaving like nothing has happened, with no idea of the storm brewing within her. He walks up to her smiling after what he feels is a particularly spectacular display of explosions in the sky. He is mesmerized and awed that she could still surprise him with her skill after all this time. But instead of her usual smile she turns to him, angry.

"If you dont like me then why do you spend so much time with me!" Xian Xue is so taken aback by this statement, he stands staring for a few moments while her words sink in. He responds with hurt in his voice and face.

"Yan Zhu, I truly like you." The look he gives her is sincere. "I have never felt that way before. What you did made me want to soar. That feeling you gave me hasn't gone away. I couldn't wait to see you and do that again." He takes a step forward with this last statement causing his companion to react with a step back. Yan Zhu is so taken aback by this last statement she almost forgets how to move her own body properly. As she takes a step back she trips a little over a rock and instinctively raises her hands to grab Xian Xue's shoulders. He in turn holds her waist to keep her from falling, while smiling. But they dont move away from each other. They get lost in each others eyes, hearts pounding from the proximity, until Yan Zhu remembers why she is angry again. She pushes him away and snaps at him again.

"Why were you gone for so long!?" But her temper doesn't affect him in the least. He reaches for her again and pulls her into him, with an amused smile on his face. "Well, aren't you going to answer me?" Her tone is less angry now.

"I don't see you every day already, why are you mad?" "...." she realizes this is true. They always meet up after her practice, once a week. As he says this he continues to try to move closer as she continues to step back a little. "So can we do that again?" Her eyes widen and her mouth opens just a little at his forward request. "....." She really doesn't know how to respond to not only his question, but to the look in his eyes. His eyes have a look he's never had before, but make her breath a little short. It's a look if excitement and desire. He finally stops advancing but leans in, her hands still on his shoulders no longer pushing but pulling him in. Their lips meet.

The two had never before acted on this kind of desire despite their age. But neither of them feels the need to hold back either. As their lips begin to roam, so can their moans be heard, increasing each others want. Their arms holding each other begin to explore. XianXue passion overwhelms him a little and he pulls back breathing heavy to see equal desire in her eyes. "I want to feel your skin" He says this while running his fingers wherever he can touch her skin. The look in her eyes becomes almost glazed as she quickly opens his shirt. He reacts by pulling her in and kissing her hard. With her arms wrapped around his neck, she allows his tongue in to explore. She has never felt this way before. She gasps and lets out a short moan. He presses her harder against him. Her moans get longer as she tries to press the rest of herself against him, while letting her hands wander. Xian Xue does not need explanation or further coaxing. He pulls away, takes her wrists and lays her down. Conveniently, they are beside a cherry blossom tree and a recent strong wind has loosened many of its petals. She is perfectly framed in pink petals as she smiles up at him. He can't help but stay himself for a moment while he admires her beauty before they both start undressing each other while there passion overtakes them again.

Later that evening they lie in each others arms under the stars, still breathless. Xian Xue thinks to himself. "How have i never known about this kind of pleasure!" Yan Zue simply feels content. She looks up at him from where she's lying and they smile at each other, love in each others eyes. Words are no longer needed between them. He hugs her closer, both knowing that there will be many more nights like this one.
