Second Life

6

Wei Ying was walking along the streets when his hand was grabbed. With the electrical feeling that passed through him, he knew who grabbed him. Turning with a smile, he greeted "Hi, Wang Zhan. What a coincidence!"

'Not a coincidence' Lan Zhan thought in his mind. "Xiao Ying... Do you know me?"

Wei Ying froze for a second before pulling his hand away with a smile "Wang Zhan, do you have amnesia? We just met the other day. You are my brother's boyfriend, of course I know you"

Lan Zhan's heart twisted "Xiao Ying, I..." While Lan Zhan hesitated, Wei Ying smiled "Wang Zhan, I'm a little busy. See you next time"

Wei Ying then walked away, leaving Lan Zhan standing there. Lan Zhan wanted to hit himself. He looked at the time and hurried for his next class.

Meanwhile, Xiao Zhan who was preparing lunch froze when he felt arms wrapped around him. "Y-Yibo... Please don't do this"

"How did you recognise me? Do I give you these tingly feelings like what you do to me?" Yibo asked, wrapping his arms tightly around Xiao Zhan's waist.

"I-It's b-because Wang Zhan is more muscular..." Xiao Zhan lied and his heart squeezed when Yibo's hand immediately dropped.

Before Xiao Zhan could turn around, Yibo opened his mouth "I like this dish saltier. Won't you cook it saltier for me?"

Before Xiao Zhan could reply, Yibo walked back to his room. Xiao Zhan squeezed his hand tight and murmured to himself "You're only confused, Xiao Zhan"

After lunch, Xiao Zhan returned to his room. He can't handle the guilty feeling in him. He can't betray Wang Zhan. Calling Wang Zhan, Xiao Zhan asked "Are you coming home for dinner?"

"Yes..." Wang Zhan replied, then after a while said "How about asking your brother too?"

"Good idea. I will" Xiao Zhan said then hung up and texted his brother as he laid on his bed. "Yibo..." Xiao Zhan murmured.

"Yes?" Yibo's voice sounded and Xiao Zhan immediately sat up with widened eyes as he saw Yibo standing by the door.

"I-I-I... I... I-I c-c-called you t-to... To tell you my brother is coming over for dinner!" Xiao Zhan quickly made an excuse.

"So you knew I was standing here?" Yibo smirked as he walked closer to Xiao Zhan who gulped. "Y-Yes..."

Yibo pushed Xiao Zhan back down on the bed and caged him "You're really bad at lying. You should be more careful. Because you'll be mine soon"

Yibo kissed Xiao Zhan on his cheek and left a blushing Xiao Zhan lying there. 'I-I can't! I'm sorry Yibo! I can't hurt Wang Zhan!' Xiao Zhan thought as he shed a few tears.

Xiao Zhan fell asleep remembering the first year he met Wang Zhan. How Wang Zhan constantly helped and protected him. He is very grateful to Wang Zhan.

That night, Yibo and Wei Ying were surprised to see each other. They didn't know the person they like has a twin.

Lan Zhan and Xiao Zhan were standing side by side, but both of them were frowning as they watched Yibo and Wei Ying shake hands and started talking about who knows what.

At the dinner table, Lan Zhan and Xiao Zhan sat beside each other while Wei Ying sat opposite Lan Zhan and Yibo opposite Xiao Zhan.

Xiao Zhan flinched as he felt Wang Yibo's leg and thigh nudging and hitting him. "Wow! Di di, why did you cook two of the same dishes?" Wei Ying asked.

Xiao Zhan gave a small smile and said "M-My boyfriend prefers bland dishes..." Xiao Zhan felt his heart squeeze when Yibo immediately stopped nudging him, his face becoming stoic.

Xiao Zhan did not know the words he said somehow affected everyone at the dinner table. He meant to make Yibo stop but he himself regretted saying it.

Wei Ying smiled to himself, ignoring the boyfriend part. 'So Lan Zhan is still the same, eating bland food even in this era. How disciplined' Wei Ying giggled in his mind.

Wei Ying looked up at Lan Zhan but froze when he saw Lan Zhan watching him. He quickly looked back down, trying to ignore Lan Zhan's stares which were getting more and more obvious.

Meanwhile, Yibo was poking at his own food. Xiao Zhan glanced at him but Yibo did not look back at him.

Wei Ying feeling awkward from Lan Zhan stares, said "Ah, I see. Let's start eating"

The four then started eating. Wei Ying and Yibo felt jealous when Xiao Zhan took a few dishes and placed it on Lan Zhan's plate.

Lan Zhan glanced at Wei Ying but Wei Ying immediately pretended as if he wasn't watching them.

After an awkward silence, Wei Ying turned to Yibo and asked about his motorbike. They then started talking about games and other things that Lan Zhan and Xiao Zhan did not know much about.

This time, Lan Zhan was staring at Wei Ying while Xiao Zhan stared at Yibo, both of them dripping with jealousy.

'Does he like my brother? But it's fine if he does! I have no right to say anything! But... But Yibo... Why? Why is my heart clenching? I hate this a lot' Xiao Zhan thought as he stab his rice.

'Wei Ying... He has common topics with Yibo. Will he... Will he be attracted to Yibo? Wei Ying... I want to be with you... That electrical feeling never left...' Lan Zhan thought sadly.

***NOTES***
If you ever get confused, Wang Zhan is Lan Zhan and Xiao Ying is Wei Ying. Sometimes I use one name or the other but they are the same person.
