Mo Yuchen's hands trembled as he opened the balcony's door. As he flung open the balcony door, his heart racing and pounding in his chest, his mind was flooded with a terrifying thought: a life without her. The mere thought of it was unbearable, a cold, sickening feeling creeping into his veins. He could not accept it, could not imagine a world without her by his side. The thought alone was enough to make his hands tremble and his stomach turn.
His heart skipped a beat as he saw her sitting on the double seater swing, her silhouette illuminated by the soft moonlight. A wave of relief washed over him, his heart rate slowing down and his mind relaxing. He let out a shaky sigh, his shoulders slumping as he took a step forward.
" Godess! You scared the hell out of me ", he muttered. Mo Yuchen smiled in relief as he watched her, standing in front of her. She looked peaceful sleeping on the swing.
Mo Yuchen knelt down in front of her, his head resting on her lap as he took her hand in his. He laced his fingers through hers, holding onto her tightly, as if he was afraid she would disappear if he let go. He closed his eyes and inhaled softly, the scent of her filling his senses, soothing his worried mind.
Zi Aixia woke up when she felt someone's touch, she sneezed slightly. " Yuchen??" She whispered. She began to run her fingers through his hair, the smooth strands slipping through her fingers like silk. He let out a low hum of contentment, closing his eyes as he basked in the feeling of her touch. The sensation of her fingers in his hair was soothing, a grounding presence in the midst of his worries and concerns.
" What's wrong...what happened", As he lay on her lap, she could feel tremors rippling through his body, the subtle shaking causing her heart to ache. She continued to run her fingers through his hair, the movement soft and soothing, hoping to calm him and ease his tremors.
" Godess...you scared me. Don't do it again Aiai.", he spoke calming down. Mo Yuchen stood up, his arms wrapping securely around her as he scooped her up in his arms. He carried her back into the bedroom, closing the balcony door behind him as he made his way inside. He laid her gently on the bed and settled next to her, his body curled protectively around hers.
" Do you know how scared I was...and Aiai why were you outside on the balcony..it was too cold outside and you were asleep on the swing? Seriously...you're gonna be ill. Silly girl, don't do this again ", Mo Yuchen lay on her, his head resting on her chest, his body fitting perfectly against hers. He could feel the steady rhythm of her heartbeat beneath him, a soothing soundtrack to his weary mind. Her arms encircled him, holding him close, her touch a gentle and comforting presence. He felt safe and protected, enveloped in her embrace like a cocoon of love and security. His breath mingled with hers as they lay intertwined, each inhale and exhale a shared moment of intimacy and connection. With her, everything felt right and peaceful.
" I'm sorry Yuchen, I woke up again in the middle of the night due to dreams...so to calm down I went outside to view the moon. I don't know when I fell asleep there. And the strict professor is in my embrace acting like a baby ", Zi Aixia spoke as she teased him.
" Moreover Zera would alert you if I'm in danger. Don't overthink Yuchen ", Zi Aixia smiled looking at him. She loved that his love for her was so pure that he became devastated without her.
He nuzzled his head into a comfortable position in her embrace," you had dreams? Just like yesterday? ", he spoke, his voice vibrating throughout her body. Zi Aixia hummed in response and started rubbing him small comforting circles on his back.
" You should have woken me up ", Mo Yuchen voiced out his thoughts after few seconds. Zi Aixia smiled," You didn't sleep yesterday too..and you looked extremely tired after everything happened within your company, I didn't want to disturb you ".
