Halloween.
Percy was looking forward to today's date.
Before going out, he specially selected for a long time in his rather large cloakroom, and finally wore a neatly tailored long black coat, a solid color scarf, and his half-length hair was specially groomed, giving it a lazy and messy feeling. The only bright color on his body was a small pumpkin bracelet hanging on his wrist. It was a Halloween gift from their magazine. Percy looked interesting and put it on.
Qi Xun was waiting for him downstairs in his house, watching him come down the steps, waiting for Bai Xi to get into the car, and boasted lightly, "You look good today."
Percy was a little smug in his heart, not to mention, he was quite confident in his appearance.
He felt that he matched Qi Xun's appearance very well.
He looked at Qi Xun and praised, "You are also handsome."
The corners of Qi Xun's mouth twitched, "Thank you for the compliment."
When he said this, he glanced sideways at Bai Xi. It was already dark outside, and the inside of the car was not very bright. Qi Xun's eyes were peach blossoms. Deep meaning, people can't stand it.
At least not Percy.
He was seen by Qi Xun as if he had been electrocuted, his face was red, and his eyes were dodging.
Qi Xun didn't expect Percy to blush so easily, and raised his eyebrows strangely.
He stared at Percy for a while, then suddenly reached out and squeezed Percy's earring lightly.
"Your ears are so red," Qi Xun said softly, "but I haven't done anything yet."
His last sentence was very low, but it was clearly audible in this quiet and closed car.
Percy blushed even more.
He broke down and thought, what is it that you haven't done yet, what else do you want to do.
He covered his face and asked Qi for mercy, "Don't look at me, brother, you can drive."
Qi Xun laughed and shook his head.
Percy used to ask him to call him "brother" when he had something to do, but he didn't think it was a big deal before, but now that he became a lover, the sound of "brother" fell into his ears, but it had a different meaning.
But he didn't tease Percy any more, he felt that Percy was already being cooked.
He drove out of the community and took Percy on a date.
Qi Xunding's musical was an early one, and it was only before nine o'clock after watching it, and there was still time for dinner.
But Qi Xun is obviously inexperienced with the grand occasion of Halloween. The Chinese have no real feelings for this festival, but are keen on parties and fun.
He forgot to ask the secretary to make a reservation for the restaurant in advance. Everywhere was full, and several private restaurants that he knew were too far away. The two walked around the street before they found a small restaurant with vacancies.
The store is very hidden, the lighting is not bright, the space is very narrow, there is a string of bells hanging at the door, you can hear the sound of jingle when you push the door, and the menu items are limited, mainly hamburgers.
Percy didn't care, but he looked at Qi Xun holding a hamburger in a suit and leather shoes, and he always felt that something was not right.
He couldn't hold back, took a picture with his phone, and laughed secretly.
Qi Xun looked at him sideways, "What's wrong?"
Percy put away her phone and said solemnly, "Nothing."
The two of them sat by the window, and pedestrians walked by from time to time. Many young people specially dressed up for Halloween, dressed as witches or ghosts.
Qi Xun stared out the window for a while, then suddenly asked Percy, "Do you remember, when I was in college, a few of our clubs also held a Halloween dance one year."
Of course, Percy remembered that Qi Xun was already a senior at that time, and he didn't have much time in school. It was rare that he was pulled by the president to attend the dance when he came back.
Percy didn't dress up much and went in a sweater and jeans, but he had bad luck that day, and he got a clown card, and at the end of the ball, he was punished for wearing women's clothes.
He felt a little embarrassed thinking about it.
However, he felt that Qi Xun should not remember, because Qi Xun was not in high interest that night, and spent most of the time sitting on the sofa.
But the next second he heard Qi Xun say, "I remember that you seemed to be a witch that year."
Percy nearly spit out the lemonade she just drank.
He looked at Qi Xun incredulously, "How can you remember, aren't you playing with your phone?"
He was only dragged to change his clothes in the last ten minutes of the dance that day. When he came out, he even looked at the corner where Qi Xun was, and made sure that Qi Xun was not looking at him, so he was depressed and relieved.
Qi Xun didn't tell him the answer, "Guess."
Of course, Percy couldn't guess, it could only be attributed to Qi Xun's memory.
After dinner, Qi Xun sent Percy home.
When we were halfway through, it started to rain, and by the time we got downstairs to Bai Xi's house, the rain had already become heavy.
The wipers swayed back and forth, the sound of rain continued, and the windows were covered in a thin layer of mist, blurring everything outside.
Percy sat still in his seat, feeling a little unwilling to end the night, but he couldn't find any reason.
He turned his head to look at Qi Xun, his lips moved, he wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say.
Qi Xun seemed to see through what he was thinking.
The inside of the car was very quiet, and Qi Xun's sound of unfastening his seat belt was amplified. He crossed the barrier between the two and held Percy's face.
His lips pressed against Percy's, and the tip of his tongue pried open Percy's teeth and caught Percy's tongue.
This kiss is no longer as shallow as it used to be.
Percy's eyelashes trembled uncontrollably, but after a while, they closed it resignedly.
It's not the first time he has kissed Qi Xun.
But every time he felt smitten.
He could hear the sound of raindrops hitting the windshield. In November, it was very cold outside the window, but the inside of the car was hot, like an isolated hiding place, and he and Qi Xun were A lonely couple in need.
His hand hooked Qi Xun's neck, very clumsy and cautious, like a drowning person holding the only piece of driftwood.
I don't know how long it took before Qi Xun slowly let go of him.
Percy was out of breath, her head was still a little dazed, and she looked up at Qi Xun.
He always felt that Qi Xun's eyes were very lethal, but he didn't know that his own eyes were also very beautiful, especially now, when his eyes were moist and misty looking at people, they were fragile and seductive.
Qi Xun's thumb rubbed the end of Percy's eyes.
"The reason why I remember you wearing women's clothing in college is because you were beautiful that day," Qi Xun's voice was a little hoarse after the kiss, "and then someone from the next department came to me to ask for your contact information. "
He really wasn't in high spirits at the college party, and to be precise, he was boring and busy throughout his senior year.
But when Percy came out wearing a long black dress, he was briefly surprised for a second.
Usually guys are funny in skirts, but Percy doesn't.
He was wearing a long black dress with an open back. He was thin and tall, with a slender neck. His skin was white to glowing under the light. He was clearly a man's silhouette, but his facial features were very beautiful, with a kind of androgynous charm.
At that time, he and Percy could only be regarded as ordinary friends. Percy was a quiet and introverted boy in his impression, who didn't talk much and was very well-behaved.
But he looked at Percy in the middle of the dance floor that day, heard the exclamations of the people around him, and suddenly realized that this boy was not as young as he had imagined.
He didn't think at that time what story he and Percy would have in the future.
This kind of amazement is more like seeing a peerless actor on a poster, which is a kind of erotic admiration.
But now, four years later, the boy had grown into a beautiful young man, and he was leaning into his arms, his eyes were blurred by his kiss, but he still looked at him with a soft and dependent look.
Qi Xun couldn't tell what he was feeling, like being scratched by a cat's paw.
But he didn't do anything more than trim the broken hair from Percy's ear.
He kissed Percy's forehead again and released the door controls.
"It's time for you to go home," he said to Percy, like the most considerate gentleman.
Percy didn't move.
His back was against the door, his head was against the window, and the window was cold, but his head was hot and he couldn't calm down.
He didn't even dare to look at Qi Xun, but softly invited Qi Xun.
"Are you coming up to my house?" he said.
Adults would understand the meaning of this sentence, but Percy was really making such an invitation for the first time.
He was curled up on the seat, his head bowed, his cheeks flushed red, like a ripe and full fruit, waiting to be picked.
Qi Xun was really going to be a gentleman.
But on such a cold, rainy and bleak night, it was obviously not considerate enough to refuse a lover's invitation.
He stared at Percy for a few seconds before nodding lightly, "Okay."
