9 ◇ Touching Friendship? ◇ (1/2)
<”Xing'er...tell me. What is the meaning behind humanity?” the woman with violet eyes asked the man who laid in her lap, his eyes gently opening.>
<His hand lifted up to touch a strand of the woman's long black hair.>
<”I don't know...perhaps we're just a big cosmic joke that God placed down here to toy with. I could care less.” Lu Xing said as he looked at the woman's face...>
<She leaned closer, her eyes flashing...>
<Is that so...then aren't you the biggest joke?” She suddenly mocked as her lips closed in on his...>
<Suddenly fear gripped him and he struggled against her sudden actions>
Lu Xing suddenly woke up, sweat covered him as he frantically tried to recall his dream...
Bittersweet.
That's all he could sum up when he tried to recall it...
'Why can't I remember it?' Lu Xing thought feeling shaken.
The dream was important, but he couldn't recall why... Lu Xing glanced at his iPhone and realized only 35 minutes had passed since he fell asleep.During that time he'd gotten a call from Liu Zhuo along with several text messages.
Lu Xing got up and went to unlock the front door of the warehouse...only to see Liu Zhuo leaning against the front of a trailer truck. Cool as though he were filming a romance movie or thriller,Liu Zhuo naturally exuded the bad boy vibe. Suddenly feeling uncertain,Lu Xing gave Liu Zhuo an pitiful smile that pleaded for leniency.
Liu Zhuo motioned for his men to begin carrying things inside as he slowly strolled over to Lu Xing. Leaving Lu Xing to swallow down any words he'd even considered saying after seeing that dark look on Liu Zhuo's face. Right as Liu Zhuo reached him, Lu Xing found himself involuntarily taking a few steps back...
Only to realize that he'd placed himself right up against a wall.
He flinched when saw Liu Zhuo place his hands on either side of him...basically pinning him to the wall.
Why did he flinch? When obviously he could overpower Liu Zhuo whenever he wanted to... Well he was mentally asking himself the same question.
”So...would you like to tell me where you went to after your little trick?” Liu Zhuo asked darkly as he lowered his face to Lu Xing's level.
”Ahh...here and there...nowhere really special.” Lu Xing played it off with an awkward smile.
Lu Xing could practically see the vein on Liu Zhuo's forehead throb from his anger...
But suddenly Liu Zhuo sighed, and the tension disappeared as he leaned his head to rest on Lu Xing's left shoulder. The act itself caught Lu Xing off guard and had him standing still like a statue. He tried to remember if Liu Zhuo had always been this way...
'I can't remember if this was how Liu Zhuo has always been or not...' Lu Xing was annoyed at himself for having such a hard time remembering.
Of course 13 yrs was no small gap...but still, there were many memories that easily came to mind from 13 yrs ago. Up till this moment in time,Lu Xing had thought his memorization skills of people and events were top notch. Yet here he was...totally caught off by someone's actions.
”You can't do that to me ever again.” Liu Zhuo mumbled out against Lu Xing's ear, ”I am staying with you regardless of what you do...we're friends after all.”
With the last part said, Liu Zhuo turned red and hid his face in Lu Xing's small shoulder.
