Rough

21. Truth

They arrive after 3 hours ride, while Shen sleeps in terror. Zhao could see under his eyelid, how his eyes keeps moving, as if haunted by nightmare. Zhao hold his hand tight, almost all the time in the road. He take a good look of Shen complexion, before waking him from the door.

"hey, we're here." Zhao tells Shen in his ears, with a kiss on his forehead.

Shen wakes and smiles weak.

Zhao looking around to found no one near, and hold Shen in his hand. Shen says nothing, just grip to his neck and keeping his face near Zhao chest. Opening the door seems difficult, yet he could do it not sure how. He bring Shen in the bed, covering him tight.

"Is there anything you need?" Zhao asks, sitting at the edge of the bed.

"Don't go." Shen keeping his eyes staring hard.

"Just to put the coat." Zhao pulling the collar from his chest.

In a second, Shen jumped from the bed and sitting politely in the middle of the mattress, not letting Zhao hand for even a while.

"Babe. I am not going anywhere." Zhao smiles to see Shen cat-ish act. "I thought you are sick?"

Averting his eyes, Shen letting go slowly, Zhao leaves to put the coat hanging. He's coming back to the bed where Shen sit still.

"Alright, sleep." Zhao says again, pushing Shen shoulder with both of his hand.

"Don't leave." Shen saying that in front of Zhao.

Blessed every god in this world, that it is Shen seducing face Zhao sees in front of him. It is literally feels like Zhao is being invited in. Without warning, a steamy kiss, trembling and weak, touch Zhao heart. A lukewarm, with fear and possessiveness kiss, roaring Shen purpose within this position.

Even without Shen locking his arm at Zhao back, it is impossible for Zhao to run. The thrill of Shen fingertip communicating his pain and his doubt, which Zhao understand instinctively, when he's in contact with Zhao's. He ended the devotion Shen give, just a second, to stop Shen from shivering.

"I am not leaving you again, ever." Zhao murmurs.

Shen might not seeing anything, but Zhao sure he could hear it. When Shen pulse found rhythm again, that's when Zhao developing. Thankful of Daqing that keep his snake, he's not worry about it climbs to the bed and make Shen fainted. Well, even if he is, Zhao not sure he could stop, when the curtain finally open, and he get to see the show he desired.

Every sounds Shen make, was like dried leaves in the middle of Autumn, doesn't need a big reason for it to burn. Slight movement from Zhao, ignite Shen to be ashes. Both can't leave, both can't stop. The wind could just add to the flaring flames that turn the cool room to summer.

"a...gain." Shen whisper breathless.

Those word shook Zhao so much, his eyes elated, but yeah, he will face it. Zhao takes all this as comforting Shen, this is all for his sake, he will be ready how many times Shen asks him to. As long as they could, when the heat remains to burn, when the melody could still be heard.

***

Shen awake the morning after in Zhao arm. they are staying as close as they could, until their body cannot bear it no more. 

"Good morning." Zhao smiles at Shen. 

A kiss always given to Zhao, to Shen most sensitive part of body: his finger. Fragment of Shen memories coming back to him, sending his logic to blush, reddening his face till his neck.

"aah." Zhao just want to tease so much. "It's not me..."

He couldn't finish his word as Shen put his palm on the lips.

"Just.. don't" Shen dives to the blanket.

Zhao putting his head with his palm, weighing his elbow fascinated by the way Shen handling himself. Not saying anything else, until he feels enough, until the breathing feels normal again.

"Shen Wei..." Zhao calls.

Slowly, Shen is getting out from the mountain of fabric, and watching Zhao.

"It is not me, is it?" He asks.

Shen know, he's not asking about the sex. He's asking about Shen demeanor at his failed recital last night.

"No." Shen answer heartily.

"So?"

"I am sorry?" Shen's apologizing, with a question tone.

Zhao's sighing. This will be though. It's not like Shen's will be having enough courage to face the piano again with just a night. A drastic measure was needed. Zhao has done something crazy, might as well doing something brave soon.

It is not hard to understand Shen Wei mental state, as the trust he lost. Zhao knew it's something more trivial to Shen, but as important as it could, Zhao worries as it is influencing his health. It is so important as pride to Shen, and he's not ready for it to be taken away, especially by his family. Shen Wei is an important human being to Zhao, and he would want to help him graduate from the pain, with any necessary moves.
