I'm a police man for fucks sake. Why did I have to fall in love with him, the right hand of a underground mob boss.

"Zhao Zi, stop it. Please,  I was just trying to be your friend."

"Jack, do me a favor; don't..." I'm furious.  Did he lie the entire time? Was it all just a game to him?

"...I don't need friends, especially not someone like you." He looked shocked and hurt. But he soon pulled a straight face and said while looking at me with that mischievous smile of his.

"Zhao Zi... if you don't want me to be your friend...is it okay that I'm more than a friend?"

"What are you talking about... just leave me alone. We shouldn't even be seen together,  you're with the mafia and I'ma policeman, I shouldn't even enjoy being close to you." I'm about to leave when I feel his hand grab my wrist.

"Please...listen."

"Jack... let go of me... all my life people have been leaving me, lying to me and treating me like I'm not worth it. Whe you came along I thought things were different, I thought I finally had someone who would stay. But then you told me you're leaving as well...you lied to me, with all your tricks and smiles. You made me think you cared when you couldn't care less."

"Then tell me what to do... if...if you don't want me to leave, I'll stay here with you. If you don't want me to leave then I won't. Because I want you... I want you to be happy,  and I want you to know that I'm in love with you. I'd give up everything for you."

"Wh...what?"

Before I could really register what was happening I felt his slightly rough lips against my own. It was almost as if I melted into the touch of him, the feeling of him next to me.

He pulled away and looked me in the eyes,

"I love you damn it...Zhao Zi, please... be mine?"

"Yes..." I smiled brightly at him, I don't care about what happens next because for me the most important now is that I don't lose him and I recently realized how much I really like him.

He pull me into a hug and then lean in for another kiss, we're standing on a parking lot, it's close to the police station, but it's not the one that actually belongs to the station. It's the lot for parking when you want to walk around rather than drive from place to place (idk if this makes sense)

Jack takes me to his bike and place me in front of him. He takes off and drive to my home. When we get there I unlock the door and walk in to the small kitchen.

I start preparing to make some food, I  decided to make some simple ramen with tofu and onion and cheese. This alone seems very bland so I decided to also take some of the left over spinach (it's some type of fermented spinach with sesame seeds and it's really good actually)

We sit down to eat, and while doing so, I can feel his stare on me. I look up at him and reach my hand out on the table top, where he has his. I place my hand over his while maintaining the eye contact.

"You know... I'm very happy I met you, even though we didn't meet in the best type of way."

"Me too... thank you, for staying with me."

"I'm the one who should say that, because you accepted my feelings at last, and you gave me a reason to stay, you gave me a reason not to let go."

Four months pass

"Zi...are you happy?"

"Yes, because I have you."

"And soon you'll have someone else."

We're standing outside an orphanage, I'm looking up at the building and see some kids running around, playing 'tag' in the yard. Further in, by the wall I can see a child maybe 8 or 9 years old, she's reading a book quietly. Maybe she's given up on being adopted because when everyone else comes running she stays put.

I walk over to her and sit down next to her,

"What are you reading?"

She shows me the cover still reading it. The words 'The Hobbit' was shining back at me in silver lettering.

I ask her a few questions and after talking to her for about 20 minutes I ask her one final question,

"Would you let me and my boyfriend adopt you?"

She looked as if she had been offered the world and not long after she had tears in her eyes.

"Really? This is not a joke right? Do you really want me?"

"Yes really, we want you to come home with us if you want. So, please." I smile hopefully at her and she beams back at me.

"Nice to meet you, I'm Yuyu."

"Hey Yuyu, I'm Zhao Zi but if you wan you can say dad."

I wave for Jack to come over and he comes smiling over to us,

"Jack, meet our daughter." I turn to Yuyu sitting next to me, "Yuyu this is Jack, my boyfriend and you new daddy." (Don't twist this into anything kinky/dirty it's not meant that way it's just to differ between the two men and saying mommy/mom to a guy is a bit weird in most cases)

We sign the adoption papers and Yuyu packs her things, then we leave and start our new life as a family.

Most people say that it's troublesome to adopt an older child, but as long as we showed our daughter that she can trust us we were able to truly be her parents. And this has been the best decision we've made.
