looking back inadvertently

Wen Hao and the two girls stopped by, and the three of them agreed to take a taxi together and left.Liang He went to the bathroom, only himself was left when he came out, but happened to see Shen Zhe by the side of the road, and called him.

With the distance upstairs and downstairs, and the moderate volume, Shen Zhe didn't "hear" Liang He calling him, but understood his expression and mouth shape.

After an unexpected meeting, it turned into two people pressing the road together.The "Fleeing Years" played on the stereo gradually weakened, but the melody and lyrics seemed to have been embedded in Shen Zhe's mind, lingering.

"Are you not in a good mood today?" Liang He felt that his mood was a little low.

"Is there?" He didn't know how to explain to Liang He, was he depressed because of a song?Hypocritical enough.She simply used the matter at work as a prevarication, "Maybe because... a student was told to cry by me today."

"That's it?"

"Well," Shen Zhe smiled, "Is there anything bothering you at work? Tell me to make me happy."

Liang He didn't say anything.

Shen Zhe turned his head: "It's not true, is it?"

"Yes," Liang He said in a nonchalant tone, "I was scolded by the manager for almost half an hour because I typed a wrong letter this afternoon."

"That's a bit miserable."

"You can still scold others, but I can only be scolded," Liang He joked, "Are you mentally balanced?"

"But I'm a child. What you say makes it even more obvious that I'm bullying the younger."

"Children can't be overwhelmed by even a little setback, right? How hard can you scold?" Liang He looked lost in thought, he really didn't know how far Shen Zhe could get angry.

"What do you think?"

"I think..." he considered, "I don't think you can say anything nasty, but when you are angry, you may have a scary expression and make people cry."

"Have you ever seen me angry?"

"No," Liang He searched in his mind again, "imagined."

After a while, Liang He found that there were not many cars on the road, and the coolness in the air was even worse, so he realized that it was already very late.

"Do you still take the bus?" He asked Shen Zhe.They walked almost one stop, but there were still several stops to the apartment where they lived, and it was not realistic to walk back.

"Well," Shen Zhe looked at the station closest to them, which was about 100 meters away, "Should we take No. [-] bus?" In my impression, only No. [-] bus can get near their residence, and the station is about to enter the station now. There is a thirty-way vehicle among the vehicles.

"Come on!" Liang He noticed the vehicle in front of him and reached out his hand, "Run over!"

Shen Zhe took his hand without hesitation, and ran fast on the road in the middle of the night, his heart was suddenly turbulent.He was propelled by a torrent, and he walked with unprecedented excitement.

He remembered that the song "Fleeing Years" was heard on the way to skip class with Liang He; he also remembered the cold wind that was several times more bone-piercing than tonight.The moment he sank into the memories, it seemed that there was indeed a cold wind blowing on his body, invading along the skin of his bare cheeks and hands, and heading straight to his heart.

They failed to catch up with the car and watched it recede in front of them.

"This seems to be the last shift," Liang He muttered annoyedly. He continued to walk a few steps forward, glanced at Shen Zhe who was silent beside him, and was surprised to find that his eyes were red, and his face seemed to be half full. Dry tears, "You...you can still take a taxi when the bus is gone."

Liang He's voice became lower and lower, and he also knew that Shen Zhe would not cry over such a trivial matter, and even the troubles at school he said at night were all excuses, he had more serious concerns.

I am not alone in my deep anticipation and fear.After this possibility flashed in his mind, Liang He stood dumbfounded, his heartbeat vibrating his chest, almost making him unable to move.

"Liang He," Shen Zhe also stood on the spot, the trunk of the street tree cast a thick shadow on the ground, covering the shadows of the two of them, "What did you want to do at that time?"

"When?" Liang He asked knowingly.

"High school winter vacation, at the airport."

Liang He's lips were tightly pressed together, and then slowly opened: "Do you really want to know?"

"Ah."

He walked around from Shen Zhe's side to the other side of the backlight, facing him, leaned closer to his face again, and still stopped when the tips of his noses almost collided: "Shen Zhe, do you dare?"

They were so close, even the slight curvature of Shen Zhe's lips seemed to be infinitely magnified.

"What am I afraid of?"

Liang He closed his eyes, groping to touch another person's lips.His kiss was not heavy, but very slow and careful, as if passing through the long years between them.The hot tip of his tongue burned between his teeth, and the spreading heat climbed to his brain.

They seem to have returned to the afternoon when they escaped from school, running side by side on the street; or that morning, walking along the coastline, watching the red sun rise... They are no longer children, but they really came together.

As a result of acting impulsively, the two looked at each other again, blushing at the same time, not daring to look at each other.But everyone knew that there would be no retreat after this.

"What we did just now—is it too late?" Liang He stammered, "I mean, I actually..."

Hearing what he said, Shen Zhe felt less ashamed, and asked back carelessly, "Are you seventy or eighty? You still think you're too old for a kiss?"

Liang He's consciousness was still dazed, and he blurted out a sentence that could make him cry: "If I want to kiss you in the future, can I kiss you again?"

"Why are you beating around the bush?" Shen Zhe was not so confused, tilting his head and smiling, "Do you want to fall in love with me?"

This time Liang He nodded quickly: "Yes."

"Then let's go," Shen Zhe held out his hand to him, "Let's go back."

At this time, there was no one on the road, and Shen Zhe didn't shy away from it, holding the hand of his new boyfriend and not letting go.Liang He was afraid of being noticed at first, and turned his head from time to time, but later he didn't care, but the expression on his face was not so natural.

"I find it unimaginable," he said as he walked, "I didn't think it would be so easy..."

Shen Zhe walked slowly, shaking the hands they held together: "Do you want to chase me around the eighteen bends of the mountain road, or do you want me to chase you around the eighteen bends of the mountain road?"

"That's not true." Liang He lowered the corner of his mouth, "It just feels like it's not that difficult to say it."

Fear that I lack the courage to face the resulting consequences, when in fact the other party has the same vulnerability and anxiety.When we are honest with each other, even the fear becomes shared, so that there is more determination to move forward together.

The two of them walked more than half of the way before remembering to take a taxi, and it was already past eleven o'clock when they returned to the apartment.

Shen Zhe lay on the bed and sent a text message to Liang He: [If you can't sleep, you can come to me. 】

Even if they started to fall in love, in fact, they were a little confused about the relationship between boys, and they went back to their respective rooms after they got home, and they didn't continue to get tired of it.But this night is destined to not be so easy to fall asleep.

The phone screen was flickering, Liang He took it over and held it in his hand for a while.There is no way to be calm like this.

【Sleeping】, simply replied three words, Liang He thought that Shen Zhe was the head teacher and had to arrive at school very early, and added another sentence 【Go to sleep soon, or you won't be able to wake up】.

【OK, good night】

After this, the phone survived.Liang He thought, Shen Zhe should be asleep.

He himself is still tossing and turning, he is not at ease, he closes his eyes and always thinks about what happened tonight, it feels like a dream, when he opens his eyes and turns on his phone, the message from Shen Zhe is actually lying in the inbox again.

In the morning, he woke up before seven o'clock, and this time he couldn't sleep again, and the disturbing sense of unreality surged up again.He sat up abruptly and got out of bed. He didn't care about washing up. He just changed his clothes and ran downstairs to knock on the door.

Shen Zhe had finished his breakfast and was about to go out to school.Perhaps because of a tacit understanding, Liang He's curled fingers just touched the cold and hard door panel of the anti-theft door, and the door was pushed open from the inside.

"Shen Zhe—" Liang He was dumbfounded for a moment, he didn't know how to explain the behavior of running to the door of the other party's house in the early morning, and he couldn't say that because he didn't dare to believe that they were really together, so he confirmed it again?

But Shen Zhe didn't feel surprised by this, instead he spread his smile, and suddenly rushed forward, hugged Liang He's neck with all his might, and leaned his head on his shoulder.It wasn't the first time being hugged by him, Liang He instantly understood that this time had a different meaning.

While Liang He hugged back, he took two steps into the room, closed the door smoothly, leaned his back against the inner side of the door, and pressed his lips down.
