Guardian: The Lost World

Mount Kunlun Hike

-Shen Wei-

A strong knock on the door wake up Shen Wei from his troubled sleep. The sudden sound make him moan in pain, as he became sensitive to the insisting sound. He try to move to open the door, but an unexpected dizziness, make it impossible. So he asked to the one on the other side to come in instead, as he sat over the bed, with a headache and thirsty for some water, meaning he had a hangover, despite only drinking just less than a cup of the rice wine.

To his surprise, Zhao Yunlan came in, carrying a plastic bag and a pleasant smile on his rosy lips. For some reason, Shen Wei unconsciously looked at Zhao's smiling lips and blushed. There was something in the back of his mind, that he had the feeling he should remember, but whatever that was it eluded him for now. The last thing he remember was asking Chu to take care of him, after that, he had no idea of even how or who brought him to the room.

"Good morning, Shen Wei. How do you feel?" Zhao asked, already knowing the answer.

"Not as good as you, I guess." Shen answer, as he rubbed his forehead. It was rude to stare at other peoples lips, for more inviting they looked. He just hoped that his sudden obsession with lips will wash away with a cold shower.

"Ah, but Shen Wei... I didn't do it as well as you believe. I pretty much turned on my bed from side to side all the sleepless night," Zhao said, putting the bag over the table and start looking for something inside of it.

"Why? You were doing fine as far as I remember. You are such a cautious man, I doubt you drank more than that toast glass." Shen innocently said, slightly moving his head at one side. Seen Shen looking so beautifully confused, Zhao smiled, while his heart raced like hell inside his chest. Damn, he is already making me going crazy for him this early in the morning.

"Why? You ask? Don't you remember?" Zhao asked back as he offer Shen a bottle. "Drink it, it will help you with you hangover." He added and Shen thank him before sipping it a bit at the content.

"Did something happen while I pass out?" Shen asked, looking at him and drinking a lot more from the bottle.

"You passionately kiss me, when I brought you to the room last night..." The effect was instantaneous, as Shen Wei almost drown himself with the content off his drink, then coughed in surprise, looking at Zhao with widen doe eyes.

"What?!" Shen asked going deep red. He must be kidding, because he couldn't had dare to approach him first.

"You put your arms around my neck and told me I was handsome too and kiss me without warning or restrain. Ah, it was such a kiss, even if it lasted so little. You are in fact a good kisser... I definitely approve your passion." Zhao said with amusement, as Shen Wei's face went even redder, if that was possible.

"You are teasing me right?" Shen asked hopefully, because if he had indeed kiss Zhao Yunlan in such a way, then it will be the end of him, because he will definitely die of embarrassment before going up the mountains.

"Nope. Apparently, you kiss the best, when drunk. Old Chu even ask me if you did it last night, because once, in high school, some bastards put alcohol on your bottle of water in your gym class and you pass out almost instantly on the floor, then, a girl try to wake you up and you kiss her when becoming conscious for a few seconds, the same you did with me." Please earth, just swallow me whole right now, Shen Wei wished, closing his eyes in resignation. He had forgot about that incident, which was the reason he didn't drink and now Zhao knew about it. Perhaps he could kill Chu before doing anything else.

"Don't worry, Shen Wei, you don't have to feel embarrass for things in the past or the present. I myself had done far worse than a heated kiss with another man when drunk. Despite what most of my team believes, I not as depraved as to take advantage of something done unconsciously. You can rest assure, I will not force you to do something you are either not ready for or don't like. I said it before I will leave it all to fate. Just drink that and the pills inside the bag, which will help you with the headache, then come out and join us. We need to be on our way as soon as possible."
