127 I Must Be a Masochis (2/2)

Nie Chang looked at him and smirked. ”But I'm still your boyfriend.”

”Then you shouldn't be like this to me.”

”I was praising you though. How many people are there nowadays who always tell the truth? You're completely unable to lie and you can't even keep your own secrets if you want to surprise someone. That's … really adorable.”

Su Yan's lips lifted into a smile but he still felt that this was too good to be true. There had to be a catch somewhere. ”You really think so?”

”Mn. Just look at you now. You're still the same as back then in primary school. One moment you scold me and the next moment you're hugging me again.” He sighed. ”I must be a masochist to actually like someone with such a temper.”

Su Yan grabbed Nie Chang's arm and snuggled up against him. ”Don't say that. I only scold you when you did something wrong.”

Nie Chang coughed. Right. ”Then I'm probably doing too many things wrong. I feel like you're scolding me every day.”

Su Yan reached up and cupped Nie Chang's cheek. ”How can you say that? That's not scolding at all! That's just me fiercely displaying all my love for you!”

”Oh? There are other ways to do that, you know?” He pushed Su Yan against the cupboard and encircled his waist. Before Su Yan could protest he had already leaned down and kissed him. ”Su Yan.”

”Mn?” Su Yan perked up. Nie Chang hardly ever used his whole name. Most of the time he would just call him 'Ah Yan'. So … What was the matter now?

”Whether it was back then when we started to get to know each other in primary school or when I fell in love with you later on or now that we're already a couple … I've always been really happy with you. Even though that earlier wasn't a proposal I still want to stay with you forever. Could you … also imagine that?”

Su Yan really wanted to ask why he even worried about that but he somehow felt that Nie Chang wouldn't be happy with that answer so he just nodded.

”That's good then. I …” Nie Chang shook his head and just gave him another kiss. There was no need to say anything else.

The things Su Yan had wanted to know, he had already said them. And everything else could still wait for a while. When they had been together for a while longer he would bring it up.

Just like he had gotten used to that little imp tagging along with him back in primary school, Su Yan would also get used to the way he was tagging along with him now. And when he did then they could go further. For now, staying like this was alright. There was no reason to hurry at all. They still had the rest of their lives in front of them, after all.
