You're watching TV when you hear the front door open. Your boyfriend just came back from a long day of work. "Ni hao, ________." Yao greets. He drops his things onto the floor, throwing himself onto the couch. He tilts his head back and closes his eyes.

"How was work today?" 

"It was alright, just tiring." 

Yao smiles at you anyway. You smile back and sit closer to him. 

"Take your hair down!!" You tell him, reaching for his ponytail. "Why? My hair is all messy." He complains, using his hand to cover his hair tie. "Oh hush, Yao. Be grateful for your beautiful Asian hair."

You ignore him and gently tug his hair free. His soft strands flow down his back. "Now tell me how that's ugly." You say, stroking his silky locks. He roles his eyes but still lets you play with it. He doesn't admit it, but you know he loves it.

"I'm going to change out of my uniform."

"I'll start dinner."

* * * * *

You suddenly hear your phone ringing. Someone is calling you.

"Where's my phone?" You think in the middle of cooking. While the rice boils, you venture around the house. Maybe it's in your bedroom?

The door is halfway open. You peer in, but then wish you hadn't. Shivers dart down your spine.

A long, red scar from Yao's shoulder to his waist marks his back.

Was that... always there...? You two have been only dating for a short time, also making you realize you haven't seem him shirtless before.

His bare back is facing you. He bends down to pick something up that fell on the floor, giving you the perfect view. You quickly turn on your heel and walk away, hoping he didn't see you. The eerie image sticks in your head.

* * * * *

"Dinner's ready!" 

You carry two steaming plates of sweet and sour chicken, with a side of rice, to the dining table. This was your first attempt at making Chinese food, so you're kind of nervous for his reaction...

"This looks delicious! I taught you well." Yao digs in with his chopsticks. But you, on the other hand, are caught in a daze.

"Hello? _______?" Yao waves his hand in front of your face. You snap out of your small trance. The giant scar on his back… you just can't get rid of the idea.

"Oh, sorry about that. Guess I'm just a little tired…" You reply, picking up your chopsticks. Then, you look at Yao for help.

"Did you forget how to use your chopsticks again?"

* * * * *

Since Yao arrived home late, you ate dinner late. It's already dark when you both finish eating.

You meet Yao at the back porch. You lay down next to him and hold his hand. But you once again lost yourself in that daze, thinking about the scar.

"The night is beautiful, right?" 

"..."

"________!"

"Oh! Uh… what were you asking?"

"Are you okay? You've been acting weird today."

"Yeah, I'm fine."

"No, tell me. What is it? ________, you know you can always tell me anything."

You sigh in defeat.

"While you were changing, I was going to get my phone from our room. But then I looked through the door-"

"You saw my scar."

"I'm sorry, Yao. I know it's stupid I didn't already tell you. I didn't want to offend you either, especially if you didn't want me to know."

"Hey, it's okay. Don't worry about it, I was going to let you eventually. But why didn't you just tell me? You don't have to be scared of me." He smiles warmly. You smile back, a little sheepishly. "I thought you would get mad at me or something..."

Yao caresses your face with his hand. "You need a kiss."  

Before you can say anything, he kisses you softly, and stays like that. He pulls back once he's satisfied. You stare at him, lacking emotion.

"________, what's wrong? You always like my kisses..."

You can't help but laugh. "No Yao, it's not that. Trust me, you're a great kisser. But... I never asked you about your scar. What happened?"

"Kiku fought against me in a horrible battle, this was several years ago. And obviously I lost…"

He lets out a small laugh, and you're relieved that he seems okay.

"Speaking about Kiku, when he was little, I used to watch the moon with him every night. But now, I can watch the moon with you."

-the end ♥
