Xia panted and softly sighed. "Hmm I am so sleepy now." He mumbled. The little snake removed his fingers right at this moment, making him moan out loud. "Aotian..."
"Xia...love..." Long whispered and laid him onto the wooden branch. He laid on top of him, placing his head near his beating heart.
The sun stared rising higher, painting them in a beautiful golden glow.
Gazing at the dawn, he sighed softly in content. "I wish this day would never end," he mumbled.
Xia softly caressed the little snake's hair. His fingers went into his hair tie and unwound it.
"There will be more beautiful days in the future," Xia whispered with a soft smile. He meant every word he said. He really wanted to spend a lifetime with this silly little snake.
As the pair was basking in the afterglow, the other members of their travel group woke up one after another.
The first was Raijin. He could sniff a strong scent of young master Aotian in the air. He sniffed it and woke up suddenly.
