Heat clings to Fu Yao’s body as Ruoye wraps around him, pulling him into Nan Feng, he turns his head away to avoid bumping noses with his angry traveling companion. As if it wasn’t hot enough from the desert heat, now he feels as if his body on fire.
“What the hell?!” Nan Feng curses as he struggles against the sentent ribbon. Of course opening his mouth in a sandstorm causes him to almost swallow sand. It would be assuming if not for their current situation.
“What is that idiot trying to even do?” Fu Yao huffs then spits out the sand that flew into his mouth. He grabs at Ruoye, trying to pull the silk off of them, but no matter how much he pulls the sentient strip of fabric, it only constricts harder to not lose it’s grip on the two.
“I believe he is trying to pull himself to us” Nan Feng says the obvious making Fu Yao roll his eyes.
“No way, really?” Fu Yao asks sarcastically as he turns his head back to look at Nan Feng. The sudden movement causing him to bump noses with Nan Feng and make eye contact with him for the first time since getting tied together.
“Most likely” Nan Feng mumbles as his face starts to grow red. He’s surprisingly cute as he tries to avoid eye contact while not pulling away.
Fu Yao swallows hard as his body becomes all too aware of his closeness to Nan Feng. It’s hot. Oddly enough he doesn’t want to pull away, he’s almost irritated they aren’t closer. Subconsciously Fu Yao moves closer, shrinking the distance between their lips. It is only a moment later that Nan Feng closes the distance, pressing their lips together. Fu Yao closes eyes, slowly losing himself to the moment as he kisses back. It surprises him how soft Nan Feng’s lips feel despite how rough the sand is between them.
The kiss doesn’t last long, however, as the two are suddenly yanked into the sky.
An undignified squeak leaves Fu Yao’s lips as he hides his face in Nan Feng’s chest, only to pull away as he realizes what is going on and who will see them. Fu Yao isn’t ready to think about what this will mean between him and Nan Feng just yet. He is especially not ready to have the conversation that will eventually fallow, so there is no way he wants Xie Lian or that “San Lang” to notice any of this.
