I'm Back | Wangxian

Reunited (Chapter 3)

"Take off your mask" Lan Zhan demanded.

Wei was taken back from the sudden command. "I-I can't" Wei stuttered. Wei felt every part of his body stiffen, he was nervous, scared even. Lan Zhan swiftly moved toward Wei Ying making him freeze. Lan Zhan quickly motioned his hand towards Weis mask forcing it off his face revealing Weis's identity. Lan Zhan stumbled back in shock, falling to his knees. "But y-you died" Lan Zhan stuttered, tears forming in his eyes. He could no longer hold back what he has felt these past 16 years. Wei fell back, he didn't know what to do. "Lan Zhan I can explain" Wei pleaded. Wei crawled towards Lan Zhan. Lan Zhan looked up at Wei and caressed Wei cheek and looked into his eyes to make sure he isn't dreaming. Wei leaned into Lan Zhan's hand, Lan Zhan's hand was cold yet gentle. Wei pulls Lan Zhan into a hug not caring if there were people watching. He never felt this way before it's almost like he has finally been revived again. Lan Zhan broke the hug and helped Wei up. Lan XIchen was shocked, he has never seen his brother show such emotion before, not even when their mother disappeared. He didn't want to get involved, he knew it wasn't his place to. Nie had no idea why he felt like he wanted to cry. He felt happy for his best friend and that he could finally be with the one he loves. Lan Zhan finally calmed himself down. His face was very red and puffy and you could obviously tell that he was embarrassed. Wei had Lan Zhan hide behind him. Lan Zhan held onto Wei Ying's shirt to feel more comfortable. "Young master Wei" Lan Xichen said the shock still very prominent on his face. "How are you still alive?" Lan Xichen questioned. Wei had no idea how to answer, he didn't know how Nie found him or his spirit for that matter. "I don't know," Wei said still questioning that himself. "Nie, how did you find my body?" Wei questioned, sweat dripping down his face. "I found you before anyone could," Nie said putting down his fan. "We found your body at the bottom of the cliff" Wei looked down at the stone floor "Your body was surprisingly still intact but your spirit was nearly gone" Nie finished. The room went silent, you could hear a pin needle drop. Lan Zhan always hated the fact that he couldn't find Wei, he looked everywhere he could. He has searched for 13 years but he never gave up hope that Wei would come back. Wei couldn't handle the tense atmosphere he stormed out of the room and broke down. He fell to his knees onto the floor, he couldn't handle the fact that he killed so many people that night. "Wei Ying" Lan Zhan whispered placing his hand gently on his shoulder. "Why did I do it" Wei turned and looked back at Lan Zhan his whole body was trembling from the frightening reminder of his past. "You weren't yourself" Lan Zhan kneeled down to face Wei on his level. He wrapped his arms around Wei comforting him. Wei couldn't hold back any longer he gripped Lan Zhan's shirt and rested his head onto his chest. Lan Zhan rested his head onto Weis, he himself started to tear up. They sat there for a good 30 minutes. Lan Zhan sang to him to calm him down, the song only they know. "Wei Ying do you want to go to your room?" He asked lifting Weis head by placing his finger under his chin. Wei looked into Lan Zhan's eyes nearly melting into them. Wei nodded. Lan Zhan helped Wei up and slowly started to walk to his room. It was peaceful, no guards, no servants, nothing but Wei and Lan Zhan. "Lan Zhan, did you look for me?" Wei asked looking up at Lan Zhan. "I did" Lan Zhan replied. Lan Zhan couldn't help but look for the one person he fell in love with. Wei was the only one he looked at, he never looked at the women or men that would swoon over him or even try something with him. He was always loyal to Wei. "I missed you" Wei stopped and looked at Lan Zhan "I missed you so much but it was so dark, there was nothing but darkness" Wei couldn't help but want to cling to Lan Zhan. He didn't want to lose him again. "I missed you too and I promise that you won't ever have to go through that again." Wei blushed and rubbed his nose with his hand.
