After YangMeng's "illness" had been cured, he didn't wander around anymore. He followed YouQi obediently, running here and there, busy for the entire day. At night when he reached home, his bones were already aching. Out of habit, he kicked off his pair of shoes out and took off his jacket. Just when he had wanted to take his pants off as well, he suddenly felt potential dangerous gazes lurking around, so YangMeng sneaked back into the bedroom.
He didn't know why but ever since he had been "cured" by YouQi, YangMeng kept feeling that there's a pair of eyes staring at him in the shadows, dropping some kind of hints. Moreover this feeling became stronger as YouQi nears him. Although he had stayed at YouQi's side for the whole day, YangMeng would avoid touching him intentionally or otherwise, if not his heart wouldn't feel at ease. Coming out from the bedroom, YangMeng saw YouQi standing at the door without any movement once he had opened the door. YangMeng got a big scare.
"What are you doing?"
The features on YouQi's face was a lot gentler, his tone was also relaxed and casual.
"What else can I do? Taking my clothes and going to shower."
The tensed muscles around YangMeng's lower abdomen loosened slightly.
In the past, the two would always fight for who would be the first person to shower. Yang
Meng won't fight today, nicely letting YouQi shower first. He feared that YouQi would barge into the bathroom while he was showering first and take advantage of him by using the excuse of showering together.
Finally, YouQi walked out while sporting a head of wet hair. The ribbon of his bathrobe was tied very loosely. YangMeng kept feeling that this bathrobe would slid off any minute and hence he quickened his speed in rushing into the bathroom.
YouQi glanced at YangMeng's figure fleeing in panic and the corners of his lips lifted upwards unconsciously.
After entering the bathroom, YangMeng closed the door tightly; how he wished he could move the washing basin over to block the door. YangMeng only felt at ease and walked under the shower after repeatedly confirming that the door was locked.
"Happy scrub scrub happy scrub scrub...... Happy scrub scrub......" YangMeng hummed, relieving his anxious feelings.
When YangMeng washed until a certain area, his voice halted. His heartbeat increased suddenly. He tried to rub two times using his hand but it didn't seem to have any reaction. He rubbed a few more times purposely and there still wasn't any reaction. He tried to imagine those "action movies" but there still wasn't any reaction.
What's wrong?
It was very easily erected in the past when I was excited while showering, why am I unable to get hard again today?
YangMeng was drenched in sweat after rubbing repeatedly without any result.
"Bang bang bang......"
The sudden knocking of the door caused YangMeng to release his had in shock.
"MengZi, why are you taking so long to shower?"
YangMeng's heart tensed and he replied patronizingly, "I'll be done very soon. I'll be done very soon."
Maybe I was too anxious.......
When he was sleeping at night, YangMeng curled inside his blanket and "worked" diligently. However there was still nothing. YangMeng's heart was dejected for a moment but he found back some of his confidence for the time being and consoled himself silently. Maybe he had just finished venting in the morning so he's lacking in energy now. Or perhaps he had just been cured of his illness and it was still unstable so there may be a possibility of occasional relapses.
In the end, the situation was the same on the second day.
It was still like this on the third day.
For the rest of the week, YangMeng still could not become as full of vigor and vitality as he was on that morning again. With no other options, YangMeng went to find that doctor again.
"Aren't you already cured?" The doctor was surprised.
YangMeng's expression looked embarrassed, "I've only been cured for a day."
"How was it cured?" The doctor asked.
YangMeng really couldn't say it out loud.
The doctor understood and consoled immediately, "It's alright if it's inconvenient for you to tell me. I'll give you an advice. You, go through the same process as the day you had been cured and replay the scenario again. See if there's any change. If there's a change, then it proves that your mentality is the most relaxed in that kind of atmosphere and around that type of people."
"I'm not relaxed at all in front of him, I'm very nervous."
The doctor argued convincingly, "Your nervousness proves that you have feelings, why would you feel nervous if you don't have feelings?"
YangMeng's heart suddenly trembled, YouQi's words suddenly sounded next to his ear.
"You like me."
Do I really like him?
——–
Sometimes, a drop of hint is a dose of poison; it can corrupt one's mind, letting him slowly believe something is true. This method has the same effect on affection. Once others had insisted that you liked someone, even if you don't like, you would slowly take notice of the person under the crazy bombarding by others. Until one day the rumors became true. Especially when such a bud had already sprouted inside your heart, once it had been catalyzed, it would flourish rapidly.
At night, YangMeng stood at YouQi's door, dawdling.
YouQi purposely acted like he didn't know anything and looked at YangMeng. He asked with concern, "Why are you not going to sleep?"
"That...... I have a bit of insomnia."
YouQi was very considerate and gave YangMeng an way out of his awkwardness, "Come in and have a chat."
Just like this, they chatted and then chatted onto YouQi's bed
Even though YouQi knew YangMeng's purpose in coming over, he behaved his self and didn't do anything, because the drug effect would only wear off the next morning. But rather YangMeng, kept scooting towards YouQi intentionally or otherwise. Moreover the way he moved was very stiff, YouQi just felt like laughing from his shuffling.
Pa!
YangMeng put his leg onto YouQi's leg, his heartbeat increased suddenly. Unexpectedly, YouQi didn't have any reaction whatsoever. Seeing that YouQi was almost falling asleep, YangMeng reached his hand on to YouQi's arm and lightly lifted it. He observed his reaction. It looked like he had really fallen asleep. Hence he slowly shifted YouQi's hand towards his crotch. All the while, he held his breath. His blood pressure had almost shot up to 250 already.
All of a sudden, YouQi coughed once.
YangMeng released his hand quickly and got over to the other side of the bed. He used the blanked to wrap himself tightly.
Scared me to death; scared me to death...... YangMeng soothed his chest.
YouQi's hand smashed back onto the bed sheet. He glanced at his side using his peripheral vision. Someone was wrapped like a big ball, squirming clumsily, emitting a light of awkwardness.
He's indeed a big clown ...... YouQi's eyes curved into a love-filled angle.
