The laugh fades, and he hesitates a centimeter from Shen Wei's lips for a moment as he meets the other man's eyes. He wants to make sure. That Shen Wei's really okay with this, that he himself is--
-- it feels like a big step, somehow. It's just a kiss; maybe it means so much because Yunlan already likes him so much, his brilliance and his awkwardness, the way his smile lights up a room when it turns genuine. Or maybe he's hesitating because there's still so much he doesn't know about Shen Wei, and so many things he keeps finding himself not quite able to think about. This could be a terribly dangerous step.
Zhao Yunlan is not great at self-preservation.
He closes the last gap, meeting Shen Wei's lips with tender reverence. If his heart was still beating, it would be hammering in his ears.]
