Jiang Cheng has since long forgotten his greatest love, his ultimate torture.
Yet before him stands the center of his universe, the undeniable pull leaves him dizzy, eyes glued to every movement.
His love feels Jiang Cheng's eyes burn into him, but a promise must be kept.
For his own sanity, he cannot meet Jiang Cheng's eyes. He is certain to drown in them.
His own words echo in his mind, and he wonders what curse latched on to him for him to agree to this arrangement.
Jiang Cheng feels his body lean closer every minute longer he stares at the man. Hearing his name, Jiang Cheng snaps out of his daze.
…
Jiang Cheng catches him napping one day and against everything he knows, Jiang Cheng leans down to get a closer look at the man's face.
Realizing how creepy it is, he attempts to get back up before his wrist is seized. The man's eyes flutter open as a lazy smile graces his lips, "you came to me this time."
As the man stares into Jiang Cheng's eyes he repeats, " YOU came to ME. The deal is null and void.
With his heart hammering, Jiang Cheng can't help his body leaning in. He takes this chance to study the man's face
We are even. Stop torturing me, let me back in, please? I've learned, I promise. My words were careless. I know better, okay?"
He keeps his grip on JC wrist firm, as he uses his other hand to cup JC's face.
He releases the breath he was holding as he takes it all in, "you're just like me. It was simply a matter of time, I knew I had to be patient," letting go briefly he sits up.
Leabing against the tree he reaxhes for Jiang Cheng again. Pulling Jiang Cheng into him, his eyes wander, soaking up every detail.
Eyes crinkling, he is lost in thought. Humming as he traces JC face
Caught off guard Jiang Cheng is rendered speechless, reckoning he walked into a trap.
"Do i-," he clears his throat, shifting slightly into the man, he furrows his brows, "do I know you?"
The man breaks into a wild grin as JC continues, " I think I know you, do I?"
" You will, don't worry"
