A Great Love

Wei Ying

After making love and bathe in the Lotus Lake under the moon, they changed clothes and walked the strangely solitary path to the Ancestral Hall. Last time they had been there, they had fought with Jiang Cheng, for which Wei Ying was extra respectful.

He kneeled down with Lan Zhan by his side and after they offered a prayed and incense to them, they make their bows once again. For this time their second wedding to be a bit different from that in the Cloud Recesses, Wei Ying brought the best wine in the Lotus Pier and served two cups, so they could exchange them and drink from the other one's cup.

Wei Ying only allowed for Lan Zhan to have a zip, because when he got drunk, he was too much to handle. Yet, after they make love for the second time that night and went to bed to rest, he found out in the middle of the night that Lan Zhan was gone, which was quite odd, giving the fact that he never leaved the bed before him by his self-imposed rule of never leave him to wake up alone.

He panic, thinking something had happen while he sleep and without having a clue of how much time had passed since Lan Zhan wake up and go out, he hurry his way out to search for him everywhere. The Lotus Pier Clan was big, so he had quite a lot of places to look for him. He begin at the Ancestral Hall, which was the last one they visit. He found tree incense sticks still burning low, so he could assume at least almost half an hour had passed.

He try to see if he had left some signs of his passing, finding an 'I love Wei Ying' written in a plumb tree trunk in one of the gardens, then following the hearts to a far pagoda that had a wide view of the lake. When he reached the pagoda it was empty, but there was a drawing of a small Lan Zhan kissing his Wei Ying and a lotus flower on the floor.

"Ah, Lan Zhan... not even a zip for you anymore..." Wei said to himself as he looked around to see any other signs of his passing with either an I love Wei Ying or hearts with their initials in the center. He will ask Wen Ning if he can erase the words, as he keep Jiang Cheng and the rest of the Clan distracted with the duel.

He looked everywhere for his twice husband, but he found no more hearts or love words. Just by pure coincidence, he looked at the lake. At that time of a year the lotus were in full bloom, covering the lake with hundreds of beautiful flower that remained him of his sister.

The whole Clan remained him of her, but the Lotus Lake more than anything, so he took a few minutes to remember her, while watching the flowers be moved by a the gentle night breeze. He sighed and was about to turn to look for his missing lover, when he saw the movements of a boat floating in the lake.

He had missed because the one inside was not wearing white, but red and with no light to illuminate the lake, other than that of the shining moon. Wei Ying's heart throbbed like crazy when he saw his lover bow down over the lake and he feared his Lan Zhan was going to fall to the cold water, as he was still drunk, so he ran the short distance to the lake border and dive in.

He swung as fast as he could, stooping only to make sure he was heading in the right direction and as adrenaline pumped the needed energy to accomplish the impossible, soon he was close to the boat, yelling to his husband name, finally making Lan Zhan notice his desperate calls.

"Wei Ying!" Lan Zhan yelled back and unexpectedly, he dived in too, also thinking in his foggy mind that his husband was in troubles.

They meet tree meters away from the boat and as soon as Wei Ying was in front of him, Lan Zhan hug him, kissing his cheeks, eyes and finally his lips. They keep up the kiss as they floated in the lake full of flowers, until Lan Zhan was ready to let go of his husband, yet he keep him in his arms.

"Lan Zhan... what was that? What were you doing here? You were about to fall..." Wei whisper, pulling him closer.

"I was not going to fall." Lan Zhan told him.

"Then what were you doing?" Wei asked, looking at his wet and handsome lover.

"Picking lotus flowers..." Lan Zhan simply answer.

"Why?" Wei asked next.

"Because they are your favorites, as a weeding gift..." At that, Wei smiled gently. His Lan Zhan only thought of him, even when he was drunk, so he kiss him tenderly again, showing him that he loved him too.

"Don't do that again... you scared me. Remember that you said you will stay by my side until I wake up." At those words, Wangji widen his eyes and feeling he had failed his husband, he hug him tight.

"I'm sorry, Wei Ying... please forgive me..." Lan Zhan whisper, caressing his wet hair, which only make him shudder, but not with cold, but with renewed desire for his lovely man. His heart was already overloaded with energy and his husband was acting quite cutely in the name of his love for him.

"Alright... let's just go back to the boat. I want to see how many flowers you were going to give me." Wei smiled and started swing to the boat, with Wangji closely following him. Lan Zhan had those kinds of moments in which he wanted to surprise him, but while been sober, he was quite shy, so he wanted to know how far he was going to go while unrestrained.

He put both his hands over the border of the boat to impulse himself up, to board it, but as he go up and throw himself in, he was submerged in a sea of louts flowers that pretty much covered every inch of the long boat both horizontal and vertical. He swallowed hard, realizing Lan Zhan's love was huge, no that word was too small, his husband love for him was vastly massive, extreme and gentle at the same time.

He lay down over the bed of his favorite flowers, knowing that Lan Zhan had probably picked all the flowers in the vicinity, as a gift of a man that loved without bonds. Lan Zhan was in, shortly after he lay down and immediately Wei Ying pull him to him over his wet body. Out of the water it was cold, but Wei Ying's heart was too warm up to care, so he kissed Lan Zhan over and over and over.

"Lan Zhan... I love you... love you more... and more... and more each day..." Wei whisper between kissed, not minding as his husband was moving his hand down to undress him. He was already hot for him, so he welcomed the touch, the care and the passion that always keep their fire ongoing.

"Wei Ying... I didn't finish to pick them all..." Wangji whisper, while kissing his neck.

"You were set to cut them all?" Wei asked, even more overwhelmed.

"Nothing less for you..." Wei smiled and gently grabbed his lover head to kiss him again, with even more desire.

"My Lan Zhan... you are my favorite flower now, my only man and husband, so there is no need to pick more... I got you right here in my arms, so just stay whiting my reach and you will be gifting me each day with what I love most..." Wangji smiled happily.

"I will never leave you... Wei Ying, stay with me..." Wei gently removed a wet luck of hair from Lan Zhan's face.

"I will, don't worry, I will..." He whisper as Wangji trapped his mouth again in another heated kiss that make him crazy. After that, Lan Zhan was in need of him as much as he wanted his husband, so they make love in a boat while surrounded by countless flowers, which were the symbol of Lan Zhan's love.

They went back to the shore a while later and Wei Ying took his husband by the hand, to guide him back to their room, as Lan Zhan protested that the Lotus Pier Clan needed more hearts, mostly in every corner if possible.

Wei Ying laughed and keep him away from anything he could write on, then sealed their room with a talisman, so Wangji will not go out again to pick more flowers or to confess his love over more wood. He make sure to change his husband wet clothes for dry ones, then change his own and lay down in bed with his beautiful man wrapping him back in his loving arms.

He felt overly loved and he fell asleep while wishing he could gift his awesome husband with all the cute rabbits of the world, which would be his proof of his love for him too.
