***********

The elders decided to do gossiping or discuss about the marriage after the dinner. The two little ones went to a room to play. Yibo and Zhan was sitting with the others but damn they were getting so bored. "Mom!" Yibo called out. As Mrs Wang was talking she stopped and look at him. "Can me and Zhan go to my room?" He asks. "Yeah sure, why not." She replied. Yibo and Zhan happily stood up and went upstairs.

"What did you want? Why did you want me to come with you?" Zhan ask, creasing his eyes. Yibo gave an annoyed look. "Why? You wanted to stay there? Then go. You're free to go." Yibo said, showing Zhan the door. Zhan rolled his eyes and sat on the bed. "I know mummy won't allow you to come so you bring me with you." Yibo fakely smiled and said, "If you know then why did you ask?" He then rolled his eyes.

"Ah hell! When we're going home?" Zhan yelled then sighed. "By their conversion i don't think it'll be soon." Yibo replied. "Damn! I should bring some books." Zhan said, leaning backward on his hand. "Am bored too. Let's play something." Yibo excitedly express while sitting beside him."No. I don't want to." Zhan irritatedly said. Yibo smirked and said, "Oops! Sorry, i forgot that you're not good in games." "Who told you!" Zhan express with anger. "Then play." Yibo utter, leaning towards Zhan.

And Zhan put the last card and he won. "I wonnnn!! Again!!!" He screams. They were sitting in the middle of the bed, opposite to each other. Playing uno. It was the third round and Zhan was winning consecutively. "Loser! Loser! Loser! Wang Yibo is a Lower!" Zhan was shouting and irritating Yibo. Yibo looked at him in anger for a while then pushed him and got top on him.

"Say that again, I'll make you regret. You just won by chance." Yibo muttered, grabbing Zhan's wrists. As Zhan's legs were between Yibo's legs, he hit one of Yibo's leg which caused him to imbalance. He pushed Yibo, rolled over and straddle on Yibo's stomach. "People don't win three times by chance. Accept it Wang Yibo, you're a loser. The god of games is defeated three times by an ordinary guy!"

"Am seriously going to kill you Xiao Zhan! Why do you always have to get on my nerves!?" Yibo shouts with annoyance.

Zhan widely smile and said, "Annoying you is my......*yawns* birth rights....." Zhan was yawning and rubbing his eyes.

"Are you sleepy?" Yibo softly asked, while caressing Zhan's cheek. Zhan nodded while yawning. "Forget it. I don't have energy to argue." Saying it Zhan moved, lying onto Yibo. He wedged his arms under Yibo's neck and snuggled his head on the crook of the neck.

"Ya! Am not a bed. Sleep on the bed. And who's gonna clear the cards?" Yibo whispered yell yet wrapping his arms around Zhan. "It's your house, your room. Am just a guest so you're gonna do it." Zhan whispered in sleepy tone and snuggled into Yibo's collarbone. "Guest? When the hell you become a guest!? That's unfair Zha...." Yibo stopped as he felt heavy breathing touching his skin. He slightly moved his head and saw Zhan is already fell asleep. "How did he always fell asleep so fast!" Yibo said and sighed. He got up and laid Zhan on one side then cover him with the blanket. He clear the cards mess.

He then pulled off his t-shirt. It's one of his habit to sleep shirtless. He got on the bed again and about to sleep when Zhan moved and mumbled something. Yibo went closer to his face as he couldn't heard it. "What're you saying Zhan?" He ask. "My pants....it uncomfortable." Zhan mumbled. Yibo made a confused face but then remembered. "Oh! Shit! I forgot. You can't sleep with pants on." Saying it he untied the strings of Zhan's pants then pulled it off. Then covered him again by the comforter and sleep beside him.

The sunlight sneaking from the curtains fell on Zhan's eyes. He slowly open his eyelids while rubbing one of it. He looked around for a while then look beside. Yibo was soundly sleeping. As Zhan was lying straightly, Yibo's arm was wrapped around his waist while his head was on Zhan's shoulder. Zhan look at the clock and saw he's one hour late than he usually woke up. "Ya Wang Yibo, wake up." Saying it Zhan shoke Yibo. "Ah! Mom....let me sleep." Yibo mumbled and snuggled into Zhan's neck. Zhan sighed and moved Yibo's hand from him. He got up, wear his pant and went downstairs.

Climbing off from the stairs, he was looking around when suddenly someone hold his shoulder. He looks back and saw it's Mrs Wang. "Oh mummy! Good morning." He said. "Good morning sweetie." Mrs Wang said with a sweet smile then pressed a kiss on Zhan's forehead. Zhan smiled. "Where's mom and dad?" He ask. "Oh dear, your mom-dad left last night. I told them to stay but they insisted to go." She reply. "Why didn't they told me?" Zhan mumbled. "We wanted to but we saw you were in deep sleep so we couldn't bear to wake you up." She said. Zhan hummed and nodded. "Yibo must be sleeping now?" She asks. Zhan nodded again. "You guys have late classes today, right?" She asks. "Yup! It's around 10 o'clock." Zhan reply. "Will you take breakfast now?" She ask with a smile. "No mummy. I'll at first fresh up." Mrs Wang nodded at his reply. Zhan went upstairs again.

Zhan slide the door of the cupboard and start searching for his clothes but it was nowhere to be found. "Where the hell he put my clothes!?" Zhan angrily mumbled. He tried to ask Yibo but he was too deep in sleep. Then he angrily pick some of Yibo's clothes and went to the bathroom. After taking a shower Zhan came out, wearing a black cargo pant with a  long sleeves emerald green oversized t-shirt. He saw Yibo sitting on the edge of the bed, rubbing his eyes and yawning. "You're awake?" He asks. Yibo hummed. "How this miracle happen!?" Zhan ask in amazement. "When did you wake up?" Yibo ask. "Hour ago....." Zhan reply while wearing the black sleeveless jacket. "Are you coming downstairs or gonna have a shower?" Zhan ask. "You go. I'll come soon." Hearing it Zhan hummed, took his backpack and left the room. Yibo grabbed some clothes and went to take a shower.

Zhan was sipping his expresso when Yibo stepped into the dinning room. He was wearing black knee ripped jeans, white sleeveless t-shirt with a denim jacket. He went to sit infront of Zhan. "Mummy i should go now." Zhan said. "Let Yibo drop you." Mrs Wang said. "But he haven't his breakfast yet." Zhan reply. "Right mom. Let Zhan go." Yibo said while eating his breakfast. "No way! Yibo eat your breakfast quickly. You both will go together." Mrs Wang said with seriousness. Yibo and Zhan both nodded. Zhan waited while Yibo quickly finished his breakfast.

Yibo was about to took out his bike when Zhan said, "No bike! It have to be car." Yibo smirked and said, "Why? Is Mr Xiao Zhan afraid?" He was leaning towards Zhan so Zhan pushed him and said, "Not afraid. But i don't wanna die in this young age. You ride like you're in a race. So car is better. Or am gonna tell mummy." Yibo sighed and went towards the car. He was about to open the door when Zhan stopped him. "Am gonna drive it." He said. "What!? But why?" Yibo said in confusion. "Because we're going to university. Not in a car race. I also know how you drive a car. So you're gonna sit on the passenger seat." Hearing it Yibo sighed and went to the other side. "As your wish, boss!" He shouts.

Zhan was driving when Yibo took out a packet of cigarette from his backpack. "Yah! Wang Yibo don't smoke." Zhan yelled. "It's my car, my cigarette. What's your problem?" Yibo express with annoyance. "When the hell will you quit smoking!?" Zhan annoyedly said. "It's not my fault. I don't know i just need it." Yibo said. "Then why don't you tried chewing gum? Or something else whenever you're in need of cigarette?" Zhan said while looking on the road. "Why something else? Why don't i bite your hand instead?" Yibo teasingly murmur, leaning towards Zhan. "Yeah sure, why not." Zhan teased back. Yibo smirked "Oh really!?" Saying it he grabbed Zhan's hand, lift up his sleeve and bite there. "Ouch!! Wang Yibo you're crazy!" Zhan scream. "What happen? I did what you told me." Yibo innocently said. "Oh please! Don't act like a dumb. I was just kidding you know." Zhan yelled.

They didn't notice they are already in their uni as they were arguing in their whole way there. Zhan parked the car, got down and start walking, still arguing with Yibo. Suddenly a girl came infront of them. "Hey Wang Yibo!......hey Xiao Zhan." Emily Qi said. "Hi Emily." Zhan reply smilingly and Yibo nodded. "What? Can't you greet me?" Emily asks. "I nodded. It's not necessary to say hi. And i was about to meet you in the cafeteria. What brings you here anway?" Yibo asks. "I need to talk with you.....privately." Hearing it Zhan said, "You both talk, am going." "Ok b....." Before Yibo could complete he saw Zhan walk away.

Zhan was sitting on his seat while reading a book. He saw Yibo entering the class, going towards his seat. "Yibo." He called out. Yibo looked at him. Zhan threw something towards him. Yibo catch it and saw it's his car key. "I forgot to give you." Zhan said. Yibo nodded and said, "No problem."

"I knew it." Yibo thought while sitting on his seat.

"Oi what took you so long? And why didn't you came to cafeteria?" Cheng Xiao ask from Yibo's behind.

"Nothing.....just Emily wants to talk." Yibo said. He was kinda irritated.

"You mean the Emily in our friends group?" Cheng Xiao ask.

Yibo hummed.

Cheng Xiao rolled her eyes. "What she wanna talk with you?"

"Something.......nonsense." Yibo reply.

Wenhan slightly laughed.

"Thank god!! She's in foreign language department because i can't handle her even in the classroom." Cheng Xiao said with annoyance.

"Let be guys.....but Yibo, is Zhan wearing your clothes?" Wenhan ask, looking at Zhan.

Yibo look towards Zhan and said nonchalantly, "Maybe. It's not a big deal anyway."

Wenhan hummed and Cheng Xiao nodded as it wasn't unusual to them because they know even if they're rivals but they shared almost everything since from childhood.
