“Zhan...”

“Yibo...”

Their faces are just an inch apart and they can hear nothing but their own breath and each other's heartbeat pounding hard. Xiao Zhan and Wang Yibo were about to close their eyes when a doorbell brings back their senses and separate their faces with tainted pink on their cheeks.

“Son, open the door. I know you are inside.”

Wang Yibo runs to the door and opens it.

“What you two are doing? It's still day time.”

“Mom, Kuan-ge, what are you doing here?”

“Nothing special, just want to visit you two. Why, did we disturb your activity?”

“Mom?!”

“Hi mom, hi Kuan-ge. Please have a seat.”

Hai Kuan smile and seat to the couch.

“Zhan, honey, I miss you.”

Xiao Zhan smiles shyly. His mother-in-law is indeed a very soft-hearted woman.

“Come, let me talk to you, we won't stay long. I just want to check if my son is giving you a hard time.”

“Of course not.”

“I'm not talking to you.”

“Jeeezzzz.”

Wang Yibo and Hai Kuan left the two in the living room and they proceed to the minibar.
Wang Yibo took his brother's favorite red wine and prepare two glasses.

“So hows the progress. Any good news?” Wang Yibo just sighed.

“Still the same.”

“You mean you are still a virgin? Bo-di, hahahahahahahhaha.”

“Don't laugh at me. You know he is so immature and innocent.”

“I am speechless Bo-di.”

“Kuan-ge, he likes someone.”

“He told you?”

"Yes, a while ago.”

“Then who is it?”

Wang Yibo shook his head. He has no idea either. He was hoping it's him.

“Bo-di, you have to take any action, it's almost four years now and he is already twenty-one. He is not innocent and immature at all based on my opinion. Did you observe him?”

“Lately he is distancing himself from me, he's quite different now unlike before, he doesn't mind hugging or kissing me on the cheek but now, he is making alibis.”

“That's for you to find out Bo-di..you have to make your way before your deal end and make him stay by your side for the rest of your life.”

Mrs. Wang and Xiao Zhan approach to the minibar and discuss to them her plan about Wang Yibo's birthday next week that will fall on Saturday. They will celebrate it in his own house and just a simple one. After the discussion, Mrs. Wang and Hai Kuan bid farewell.

When they left, Xiao Zhan starts to prepare their dinner, keeping himself busy while Wang Yibo is just playing his phone in the dining table while glancing at his husband from time to time. Xiao Zhan is feeling nervous, Wang Yibo always watched him cooking and sometimes teasing him and playing around trying to distract him but now he feels uneasy and uncomfortable. His mind is occupied by the situation earlier before his in-laws arrived, he is chopping vegetable when he accidentally cut the tip of his middle finger.

“Ouch!”

“Bun-bun!”

“It's nothing.” Xiao Zhan hides his bleeding finger at his back but Wang Yibo took his left hand with the cut. He opens the tap water and washes his hand. It's just a very tiny cut so the bleeding will stop soon but because Xiao Zhan is pulling his finger while Wang Yibo is holding it so the blood continues to flow and dripping. Wang Yibo didn't think twice, he brings the bleeding finger to his mouth and begun to suck it.

Xiao Zhan was shocked and jolted. He just watches his husband sucking his finger and once he takes it out and still bleeding, Wang Yibo tried to lick it again until the blood stop. Xiao Zhan didn't refuse or not even pulling his hand. He just gulped his saliva and begun to sweat. He feels weird and feeling hot with the sudden touch of his husband knowing it was his mouth and tongue.

“Bo-bo, it's ok now. No blood anymore.”

“Come, sit here. Let me put a band-aid.”

Wang Yibo runs to the cupboard next to the minibar and takes out the first aid kit. He took out a box of a band-aid with Spongebob character. He pulled one piece, put back the first aid kit to the cupboard, and run back to Xiao Zhan.

“Here, let me take care of it.”

“Spongebob?”

“Yes, do you like it?”

“I love it.” Xiao Zhan smile and tilting his finger from time to time to check the cute character wrapped around his finger.
He then hugged Wang Yibo tightly.

“Thank you Bo-bo.”

“I don't accept thank you for my service.”

“What do you want then.”

“You.”

Xiao Zhan's face turns beet red when he realized what his husband means. He quickly runs to the living room and Wang Yibo chased him. They play around the couch circling until Xiao Zhan changes his direction. He wanted to hide so he runs up to the second floor towards their room. He feels more excited and screams when he heard Wang Yibo almost catch him. He quickly jumps to the bed and hides under the cover.

“Bun-bun...you can run but you can't hide.” Wang Yibo teases him more.

“Don't go near!”

“Bun-bun.....I am going near.”

Xiao Zhan screams when Wang Yibo hovered over him and cornered his body with his. Wang Yibo's full body is on his top. The two stare at each other and breathing heavily.

“Yi-Yibo.....”

It sounds music to his ear every time Xiao Zhan is calling his name in this kind of situation.

“Zhan....”

Xiao Zhan can smell the wine from Wang Yibo's mouth when his breath fanned to his face. Did he drink that much? Xiao Zhan was about to push Wang Yibo but before he does, he feels warm soft lips brushing into his lips. First, it was like a peck. Xiao Zhan didn't move and feel the foreign wet touch on his lips. Before he knew he is reciprocating to the lips that keep brushing into his and feeling good.
Xiao Zhan's eyes involuntarily close and tilt his head to let Wang Yibo's lips fit into his. Xiao Zhan doesn't know how to kiss. Both of them are virgins and none of them tried this kind of kiss. Wang Yibo now cupped his one hand on Xiao Zhan's face and start to deepen his kiss when he feels Xiao Zhan's lips are starting to move. He then licks the lower lips and suck it and twirl the tip of his tongue on Xiao Zhan's mole. Xiao Zhan made an ah, a soft moan from a tingling sensation that is new to him. Wang Yibo takes the opportunity to slide his tongue inside his husband's mouth and invite the warm tongue inside the sweet cavern to play his. They taste each other, teasing and licking, once caught, Wang Yibo starts to suck Xiao Zhan's tongue in and out of his mouth that made his husband moan in pleasure. Xiao Zhan snaked his hands to his husband's neck and deepen the kiss while Wang Yibo's left arm snaked to Xiao Zhan's waist.  Xiao Zhan was drunk from the kiss until he feels he is losing breath. He taps Wang Yibo's shoulder and Wang Yibo releases his mouth and they both gasping for air. Xiao Zhan suddenly gets back to his senses and because of embarrassment Xiao Zhan pushed Wang Yibo hard and gets up from the bed and runs down to the kitchen. Wang Yibo left in the room dumbfounded. He clenches his fist and feeling abandoned and rejected, he slams his body on the king-size bed. He pulled his own hair with his two hands. He tried to calm himself and scold himself in his thoughts.

Xiao Zhan relaxed and tried his best to brush off from his thoughts about what happened earlier and went up to their room to wake up Wang Yibo who sleeps for a while.

“Bo-bo, the dinner is ready.”

“Mn.”

“Let's go.” Xiao Zhan is pulling his husband's left hand to help him get up but Wang Yibo refused and remove his hand.

“You go first, I'll go down soon.”

Xiao Zhan feels uneasy. The way Wang Yibo talk and treat him feels different. But Xiao Zhan didn't lose hope.

“Baobei, come let me help you.”

“I said I will go down. Alone.” Wang Yibo said in a high tone voice.

Xiao Zhan was shocked and let go of Wang Yibo's hand. He is really hurt for the first time, he feels the pain he never felt. Is love like this? Why he is hurt from being rejected by the person he loves? Before his tears begun to fall he quickly stand up and went outside the room. He waited fifteen minutes more before Wang Yibo joined him in the dining table. He started eating already and finish. He is about to stand up to put his plate on the sink when he heard a loud voice.

“Stay.”

“I-I'm f-finished.”

“I said, stay!”

Xiao Zhan quickly sits back to his chair and lowers his head like a five-year-old kid being scolded by his father. He doesn't know what to do, he is fidgeting his fingers for a long time until he realized he was alone in the dining table.

“Huh?”

Xiao Zhan just released a deep breath and begun to clean up the table, wash the plates and mop the kitchen floor.

When he finished he closed the light and grab the big bunny on the couch. The big bunny has been always in the living room for three years since Wang Yibo throwing it on the floor every night. It started after one week being together,  Wang Yibo always found Xiao Zhan's body snaking on his body so he decided to kick out the bunny in their room. Xiao Zhan walked up to their room struggling with the big but lightweight bunny. He can't sleep on the couch because Wang Yibo is angry with him, no one will carry him and besides, he can't sleep well if he doesn't smell his husband's sandalwood scent. When he entered the room he saw Wang Yibo already sleeping, he closed the door and tried not to make any noise and put the bunny in the middle of the bed. He brushes his teeth and changes his cloth to a pajama. He then slid himself to the other side of the bed and hoping that tomorrow morning, he is in the warm embrace of his husband.

Xiao Zhan woke up alone in the bed. He checked the time it's already six-thirty in the morning. He gets up from the bed and prepares himself. He is wondering where is Wang Yibo. He quickly runs to the living room but he didn't see his husband not even in the kitchen. He walks around to the garden and near the pool but no one is there. He went back to the kitchen until he noticed the car key on the dining table.

He then remembers those happy days when Wang Yibo is teaching him how to drive, those sweet memories that he treasured until he got his driving license. He smiles bitterly. If he doesn't know how to drive until now, will he wait for him or he will leave a note saying to hail a taxi.

They've been like this for five days now, Xiao Zhan remembers when he was sulking for a week too just because he didn't eat the food he prepared.  It's Friday, and tomorrow is Wang Yibo's birthday. Xiao Zhan is still clueless and doesn't understand Wang Yibo's behavior and why he is so cold to him.

Is it about the kiss? Is it because I took advantage of him? Did I seduce him and made him unfaithful to the person he loves for a long time?  Am I that pervert? I kissed back because I just can't resist his kiss, it was so good. But why did he kiss me? Is it true that he has someone else already? We are not allowed to love someone because we are still married. But why he is already in love? To whom? Maybe...to...me??

Xiao Zhan quickly covers his mouth.

Xiao Zhan is walking back and forth outside the gym where Wang Yibo is practicing basketball. He is contemplating his plan, he is decided. He will confess to Wang Yibo. He promised himself, he will never regret marrying Wang Yibo and will cherish the five years of married life through thick and thin. If Wang Yibo will reject him at least he had this chance to tell him what he really feels.

This is it. I'm gonna tell him.

Xiao Zhan take a deep breath and entered the gym without knowing that it was a competition and not a practice. As he walks to the basketball court, he goes directly to the referee and whisper. The referee then stops the game that made the players halted and Wang Yibo eyes widened when he saw Xiao Zhan holding a mic. The gym becomes quiet, eyes on Xiao Zhan only. Wang Yibo is drenched on sweat, gasping for air while holding the basketball. He is really puzzled and clueless about what Xiao Zhan is going to do or say. Suddenly his heart pounds loudly and fast, not because he played basketball, he can't explain. All the players inside the ring are not moving just like Wang Yibo who is just waiting for Xiao Zhan patiently to speak. Finally, Xiao Zhan began to speak and it envelops the whole gym.

“Wang Yibo...” Hearing his name feels like his heart jumped out of happiness. He never heard Xiao Zhan mentioned his name for almost four years.

“Bo-bo...Baobei..” Everyone giggles how Xiao Zhan calls Wang Yibo...

uwu.....oooooh...whistles...giggles...then become quiet again.

Wang Yibo's ears are all pink now. Wang Yibo's friends are all present too.

“Wang Yibo, listen carefully because I will not say it again.”

Wang Yibo's face becomes serious and mouth agape. Is he going to leave him? Did he overacting and hurt his Bun-bun that much? Suddenly Wang Yibo becomes really really nervous and gulping his saliva. He wanted to run to Xiao Zhan and asked forgiveness, that he is just acting and wanted his attention. He didn't mean it and ask him not to leave. Wang Yibo's thought is in mess now. He takes a deep breath until he heard his name again.

“Wang Yibo....I-I....I-I..”
