The Gift (A YiZhan Fanfiction)

Waiting for you

"Motorbike racing champion, Wang Yibo! Congratulations" thousand of people watched and clapped for the youngest biker to win the trophy. Zanjin and Zewu jumped in joy while Xiao Zhan waited for Yibo to come back home so he could finally tell him his feelings.

"Earlier this evening, the racer got into a serious accident causing a lot of major injuries- as of now, there's no specific news about the racer's condition."

Zewu immediately took a flight to Korea and so did Zanjin after two days. Xiao Zhan have no idea what happened.

"Yibo, open your eyes."

"Didi, can you hear me?"

"I'm sorry, I should've waited for the right time.."

Peeeeeep— peeeep—

"CLEAR!"

THREE YEARS LATER

Xiao Zhan gasped as he woke up, wiping his sweat running from his forehead. "Again?" Zhan took off his clothes and went in the bathroom, standing still in the shower. "Why am I still waiting?" He sighed and washed his face with his palms.

Zexi welcomed himself in Xiao Zhan's apartment and sat on the couch as he waits for his senior to finish taking a shower. "Zexi!?" Zhan wrapped himself with a long white towel and took a loose shirt and a black boxer shorts from his closet. "You're so early. Help me clean up." Zexi did what he was told, picking up the pajamas Xiao Zhan used earlier and put it in the washing machine in the laundry room. "I'm here to tell you something but promise me you won't run or cry."

Xiao Zhan felt his heart beating like crazy. "What is it?" Could it be? Yibo finally came back? Xiao Zhan's smiles shined as he couldn't control his emotions. "Uh.. maybe later? I'll cook your breakfast. Peach Juice?" Zhan pouted but nodded at his friend's question. "Yes please."

On the other hand, Zanjin kept pacing back and forth while waiting for his friend who was away for three years. Zewu rubbed his temples as he follows the younger's movements with his eyes. "Jin, please sit down. I'm getting dizzy." Zanjin crossed his arms as he crossed his arms. "He is coming back! How are you so calm!?" Zewu tapped the space beside him and waited for his ex boyfriend to sit. "We always go see him twice a month, Jin."

The maids opened the front door after hearing the doorbell. Yibo came in laughing with a girl named Lin Qin. She is Yibo's wife for almost two years now. She was a patient who was admitted and stayed beside Yibo's private room. They often talk through walls and sometimes, Yibo goes to her private room and sing her to sleep.

"You're back? Hello, Qin." Zewu greeted and stopped Zanjin from asking rude questions again. Every since Yibo woke up, Zanjin wanted to beat him up so bad. He forgotten about the person who he searched for years. "Yes, Zewu. I'll just take Qin to my room and let's catch up, yes?" Zewu nodded, tightening the grip on Zanjin's wrist. "What are you doing!?" Zanjin is pissed, even though he loves this man infront of him, he felt sorry for his old professor. Until now, he still asks him about Yibo and how he is but he can't tell him anything because Yibo's dad forbids everyone to talk about the accident three years ago. "Jin, we can't do anything right now. They are already married and Yibo looks very happy." Zanjin rolled his eyes and grumpily pulled his wrist from the elder's grasp. "Yibo loved Professor Xiao for so so so so long, Zewu! You can't move on that easily!"

(Lin Qin - Yibo's wife.)

"What are we talking about?" Yibo asked and sat on the couch, asking a maid for a peach juice. "Zanjin, you're still grumpy." Jin scoffed and walked out. Yibo immediately followed his friend until they reached a familiar place. "Zanjin!" Yibo yelled but the elder ignored him, leading the younger to his usual spot three years ago.

When they finally stopped, the apartment still looks the same. Yibo frowned as he crossed his arms. "What's your problem?" Yibo asked, very confused why his bestfriend hates him for the past years.. ever since he woke up from that hospital bed. "Seriously Yibo, what did they do to you!?" Zanjin yelled, attracting runners and kids who are playing near them. "What are you talking about!? You're ridiculously confusing. Why are you being like this!?" Yibo snapped as well, he just doesn't know why his friend is acting so strange.

"Don't you remember this place!? That apartment!? The glass doors!? YOU USED TO STAND HERE FOR HOURS ASSHOLE!" Yibo laughed and scratched his nape. "What kind of dream did you went into? Me? I would stand here for hours? For what?" Zanjin clenched his jaw, turning his hands into fists. "Yes. You. Would. Stand. Here. For. Hours." He's really angry. He thought Yibo was just playing but Yibo really is serious.

"Yibo?" A man called his name. He looked at the apartment's direction and gave the man a confused look. "You're back-" Zanjin glared at Yibo even more as if Yibo could understand his signal. "Zhan, be careful!" Another man yelled as Xiao Zhan ran towards Yibo without looking left and right.

"Gosh.. You're back!" Xiao Zhan immediately wrapped his arms around Yibo's neck and hugged him tightly. Three long years of waiting. "Who are-"

Yibo furiously pushed Xiao Zhan away after he felt a pair of lips on his. Zexi helped Xiao Zhan up and dusted his back. "What's your problem!?" Zexi asked. Zanjin cannot take it anymore and punched Yibo right infront of his old Professors. "Damn you!"

"Yi- ZANJIN!" Xiao Zhan cupped Yibo's cheek, gently caressing it. "Are you okay? I'm sorry I kissed you- I just missed you so much." Yibo's sight got even darker and punched the man who he loved so much before quite strongly. "Get your filthy hands off me."

Xiao Zhan was stunned. He didn't know how to react. His cheek hurts but not as much as his heart does. "W-why- Zanjin?" He looked at Zanjin but the younger just looked away.

"Oh my God, Babe!!" Qin ran towards her husband and worriedly checks the punch Zanjin threw at him. "We were worried and luckily Brother Zewu knows where you might've gone! Jesus, Yibo." The male laughed and pinched his wife's cheek. "Really worried hm?" Qin pinched Yibo on the side and kissed her husband's bruised cheek. "There. Better?" "Hm!"

Xiao Zhan witnessed how they looked at each other, how they naturally touched each other. It felt like he was intruding. "I.. I'm sorry.. I-" he gulped, trying his best not to cry and breakdown. "I must've.. I must've mistaken you for s-someone else.. I'm really sorry.." Zanjin was about to reach out for Xiao Zhan when Zewu grabbed his arm. "Don't cause anymore trouble."
