β’ Modern AU
Narrator:
Morning sunlight seeped through the thin blinds of the apartment window and casting golden stripes across the rumpled bed sheets...tossed clothes and silent aftermath of a night that was anything but quiet.
Feng Xin stood in front of the bathroom mirror, shirtless as his muscles tensed as he brushed his teeth. His back was a clear canvas of proof..thin, red scratch marks trailed down like fire. And yet, he looked..oddly peaceful if not slightly grumpy from the dull ache. He didnβt hear Mu Qing coming until the door creaked open.
Mu Qing stepped in.. dragging his feet while wearing nothing but one of Feng Xinβs oversized shirts. His pale legs peeked out and faint bite marks dotted his collarbone like a trail of sin. He blinked at the light, yawned and leaned lazily against the doorframe.
βTch. Youβre loud even when brushing your teethβ he muttered.
Feng Xin side eyed him through the mirror. βYouβre annoying even when half asleep.β
Mu Qing rolled his eyes, walking over and grabbing the other toothbrush. βYouβre lucky I didnβt claw your face last night.β
Feng Xin spit into the sink.. smirking. βYou did. Missed my face but my back definitely got the message.β
Mu Qingβs eyes dropped to said back. His cheeks tinted a soft pink and covered it up with sarcasm. βDonβt flatter yourself. I was just trying to hold on so you wouldnβt fall off the bed like an idiot.β
βYou call screaming my name βholding onβ?β
Mu Qing choked on toothpaste. βShut up!β
Feng Xin laughed.. rinsing his mouth before turning around to trap Mu Qing against the sink. His eyes were soft now..still cocky yet gentler. βYou okay?β
Mu Qing looked up at him, brushing slowing in his hand. β...Yeah.β A pause. βYou?β
Feng Xin leaned in..brushing a kiss onto Mu Qingβs temple. βBetter than okay.β
Mu Qing froze just slightly at the affection, and didnβt pull away. He lowered his gaze, muttering. βYour shirtβs too big.β
βI like how it looks on you.β
βYouβre cheesy.β
βYouβre blushing.β
Mu Qing shoved him away with the back of his hand. βGo make breakfast, dumbass. I'm not in the moodβ
Feng Xin laughed again, heading for the kitchen. "Tch, finee.." Mu Qing stared into the mirror for a second.. brushing his teeth slower now. His eyes glancing at the small hickeys on his skin. He sighed through his nose. "...Dumbass."

Mu Qing padded into the kitchen after finishing up in the bathroom.. still tugging down the hem of Feng Xinβs shirt like it might magically grow longer. The place smelled like coffee already..strong and slightly burnt just the way Feng Xin liked it.
He found Feng Xin standing at the stove..flipping eggs with one hand and phone in the other, frowning slightly at something on the screen.
βYouβre not putting that disgusting chili sauce in again, are you?β Mu Qing asked, arms crossed.
Feng Xin didnβt even look up. βItβs called flavor. Youβd know about it if you actually seasoned anything.β
Mu Qing rolled his eyes..walking past to grab a mug. βUgh.. Iβm too tired to slap you with this mug right now.β
βLast night didnβt seem to tire you that muchβ Feng Xin said without missing a beat. Mu Qing immediately turned back around and smacked him on the arm.
βOW! Shit! Hot pan, dumbass!!β
βThatβs what you get for running your mouth.β
Feng Xin rubbed his arm. βYou still love me, though.β Mu Qing snorted, turning away to hide the faint blush. βI tolerate you. There's a difference.β
Feng Xin set the plates down and walked over behind him.. slipping his arms around Mu Qingβs waist. βMmm. Tolerate me more.. then.β
Mu Qing leaned back just slightly into the embrace, sipping his coffee with a soft sigh. βDon't test me now...β
The morning went on with bickering. The apartment filled with arguments and love.. just enough sweetness to balance their day together.
