Still Losers (boy story Mingrui ff pt.2)

What a Day

you two ran inside to find FangFang laying in his bed

"What's wrong?"

"He started breathing heavy and you can tell he's having trouble keeping his eyes open."

"No, no, no."

you, Mingrui, and his sister sat around FangFang. Mingrui was sitting in front of him, lightly scratching the top of his head

"Hey, boy..."

FangFang licked the palm of the hand that he cut.

"Oh it's okay, buddy...it's okay..."

you softly stroked his fur on his back

Mingrui's eyes started to brim with tears. His blinking got slower and heavier until his eyes didn't open anymore.

"Xiao FangFang..."

he scratches behind FangFang's ear, which was his favorite spot.

"sleep well..."

you put your hand on Mingrui's shoulder. he scoot closer to you and you have him a hug

"It's okay..."

He backed away and wiped his face

"It's good he got to go with the ones he grew up with."

you were fighting back the tears

you rested your head on Mingrui's shoulder

"why don't you go home FangFang...It's getting late..."

at that moment, your phone started to ring

"Hello?"

"Lin Li Faaaaang!"

"what?"

"It's fucking snowing!"

"I know..."

"Let's get some ramen and eat outside! Like we did before! Come on! Zeyu's coming, so tell Mingrui to come too!"

Mingrui could hear shuyang yelling over the phone

"Go ahead..."

"I'm not leaving you alone."

"I'll be fine."

"no."

"Yes."

"GouGou."

"FangFang."

he gets up and pulls you up too

"Go...I'll be fine."

"YO SO YOU COMING OR WHAT?"

you forgot you were still on the phone with Shuyang

Mingrui grabs the phone from your hand

"Yeah, she'll be there in a little."

then he quickly hung up the phone

"Mingrui-"

"I'll walk you out..."
