2.8 Grass as bed, sky as roof

After dinner tonight, Miss Lisa made her request to leave for city X. "Master, I hope that I have served well for all these years. I request you to not be troubled by me anymore master."

Aldo looked at her asking "Miss Lisa, if you really wish to leave then I won't stop you. Inform Albert to appoint Carla as the new butler and before going I want you to teach her your duties."

"Yes master, Thankyou for your consideration."

"As for the matter of your travel to city X -" Aldo.

"Father, pardon me for interrupting. I will be leaving for city X in a week to oversee the situation there. If Miss Lisa is free by then, she can accompany me to city X for safe travels." Shu XinYi interjected.

"Ok then it's settled. Miss Lisa resolve your duties within this week ."

Aldo had began to get up since the matter was settled when Isabel spoke up "Father can I accompany brother as well. Last time Elder sister went to tour the city and I was curious as well. So this time can I go with brother Xavier, Father?"

Aldo smiled and nodded at his daughter, agreeing. That night when Leo came to Shu XinYi's room, which had become normal at this point. Although both of them knew that they loved the other, both of them had no hopes for it being reciprocated. So these in nights like these they just talked about things that had busied them in the day. One time Leo had cried again for a little while but he calmed down quite easily, like he was improving day by day.

Leo sat on the chair nearby the room window and asked "Albert told me Miss Lisa will be leaving."

Shu XinYi was sitting cross legged on the bed writing some letters on the writing board, "Hmm." he said while focusing on using the paint brush to write.

"Won't Isabel be sad if she leaves? I mean if they love each other then it will definitely be hard on Isabel if Miss Lisa leaves." Leo said looking out the window at the full moon.

"Hmm. It's their mutual decision. Miss Lisa wants to be independent so she can support a good future with Izzy. If they have to stay apart for 1 2 years to stay together a lifetime, then it's a good bargain." Shu XinYi said and sighed in relief as he finally finished writing the letter.

"Here let me seal it." Leo said as he picked up a some wax and warmed it over a candle in a spoon. He took the letter form Xavi's hands and carefully dropped over the folded parchment then placed a seal on it.

"It's getting late go get some rest. Tomorrow let's go to Mr.Albus he said he had some samples of the new accessory designs." Shu XinYi said looking at the rising moon.

Leo didn't say anything and just sat their silently then after 5 minutes he asked in a low voice "Will you... If one day I leave, then will you be sad, Xavi?"

Shu XinYi looked at Leo in a contemplating manner. He got up from the bed and walked towards Leo and stood leaning on the wall opposite to him, looking at the bright full moon in the cloudless sky. Shu XinYi stayed silent for 2 minutes before saying "What if I am?"

"Maybe.. Maybe I can have some hope then." Leo said in a low voice. He looked at the moonlight reflecting on Xavi's face, beautiful to touch. The crimson mark on his ear was somewhat glowing like the person who had it was happy.

"Xavi, I ... I don't want to be away from you. Not again."

Shu XinYi could tell that these were the words from the bottom of his heart. No amount of words could explain the feelings hidden behind these words. Shu XinYi didn't question what he meant by "Not again" nor did he questioned him at all. Shu XinYi just said firmly as if almost requesting, Like something inside Shu XinYi really wanted the presence of the man in front of him "Then just stay with me."

Leo looked up into Xavi's eyes trying to find a trace of false in his eyes but he saw none. All he saw was that Xavi was looking at him and his eyes were firm and determined. "You .. Xavi why are you telling me this?"

"Because I want you to know my answer. Stay with me, Leo." Shu XinYi repeated.

Leo was feeling a bout of emotions at this time. Did this mean that Xavi also loved him, no he has to make himself clearer. "Xavi Can I really-"

"Yes." Shu XinYi said a bit impatiently, closing his body with Leo's.

This was it, Leo had tried to hold himself back for more than 2 months so this time when he got his answer he pushed Xavi onto the wall and finally tasted his lips. He was already addicted with just a taste. He tried not to be greedy but he wanted to devour whole of Xavi.

Shu XinYi was trying to maintain his balance as his lips were being kissed. His mind had already gone blank and he held tightly onto Leo's neck, kissing him back. "Open your mouth." Shu XinYi said. He was more then desperate. Leo obeyed him and entered Xavi's mouth sucking on his tounge and tasting everything.

Shu XinYi felt a very familiar sensation pass through his veins. It was almost like spiritual energy. When he kissed LiFeng in the last world he felt the same sensation. He loved this feeling. Leo felt that Xavi's legs were weakening so he picked him up in his arms. Shu XinYi had tightened his legs around Leo's waist tightly and kissed back with vigor.

They made out in this position for five minutes taking little pauses to breath. Shu XinYi had to gasp for air in these short breaks. After 5 minutes Leo finally let go of his mouth but held on to Xavi's body. Shu XinYi was still weak in the legs so he hugged Leo's body panting. Leo was going crazy feeling Xavi's hot breath on his shoulders and his body coiling around him.

"Let me down." Shu XinYi said but his hands involuntarily tightened around Leo's neck.

"It's okay little bunny you can hang on to me." Leo said with a little heart felt laugh.

"Ugh what is "little bunny" I am the young master of the house, humph. Let me down." Shu XinYi's hands only tightened in grip as he said this.

Leo's heart was filled to the brim with sweetness as he squeezed Xavi a little in his hands saying "Then my young master do you wish to sleep?"

"Yes I am tired I want to sleep."

Leo carried him to the bed and laid him down. Then he saw that Xavi was avoiding his eyes and his red face, so Leo covered him with the blanket and kissed his head saying "Good night young master." 

"Hmm. Good night." A little arrogant voice spoke from inside the quilts. Leo didn't immediately leave and just sat by the window looking outside and only left the room when he felt Xavi fell asleep. Leo was really happy tonight. All the knots in his heart had opened up and cleared. He felt anew tonight and had the most peaceful sleep of his life. 

The next morning Shu XinYi went with Leo to Mr.Albus. The two of them had a tactic understanding, not behaving awkward around each other anymore. Shu XinYi and Leo valued the new designs Mr.Albus showed them. They were very beautifully designed even as samples. Each stone inlaid within was polished to luster. He told Mr.Albus to prepare these new sets as inventory to be sent to city X within a month.

"Mr.Albus can you make a piece of custom jewelry? All the money involved in the making process will be given by me." Leo said after they were done talking business. 

"Yeah we can. You can discuss the design with me whenever you want Mister Leo." Mr.Albus replied. 

Leo looked at Xavi and Xavi understood as he stood up and left them alone. It was understandable. After sometime Leo joined him as they went home. For the next few days they were very busy with their own things so they got to spend less and less time together but they had made sure to spend some time it each other every day. Leo went to Mr.Albus almost everyday. Whatever he wanted to make, was surely taking a lot of his time, must be something valuable.

Although Shu XinYi was curious he didn't question him. If Leo wanted to tell him he would already have. The time came for Miss Lisa to leave and so did Xavier, Leo and Isabel. Shu XinYi and Leo were sitting in a carriage alone. Leo had gotten a letter from Mr.Albus just before they left. Leo saw that Xavi was eyeing the letter from time to time with his curious peach blossom eyes.

"Xavi do you wish to know what I kind of jewelry I am making." Leo saw an opportunity and he took it.

Shu XinYi looked at him with curious eyes asking "Will you tell me?"

"No." Leo replied bluntly.

"Huh?"

"But, I will show you once it's made. Before that you are not allowed to know." 

"Idiot."

Shu XinYi wasn't annoyed right now. He was just happy. They reached city X quicker this time since they went through the city gates. Isabel went with Miss Lisa to the old lady's restaurant. Shu XinYi and Leo also followed them. The old lady they met was very interesting. She not only could tell at a look that Isabel and Miss Lisa were together and even gave them their blessings but she also smiled looking in his and Leo's direction saying "Young ones these days, really are exploring a lot. It's good to have exquisite taste."

Isabel and Lisa didn't get anything but obviously Leo and Shu XinYi understood what she meant. The lady had a good eye and she cooked even better. The food tasted delicious. It could be seen why this restaurant was popular. She lived in the restaurant building at the top floor and had invited Lisa to stay there. Although Shu XinYi had allowed her to reside in the Xalvadore residence,she politely declined the offer and decided to live with the old lad lady. 

Isabel went back with them to the residence but during their stay she was present in the restaurant at almost all times. Miss Lisa had adjusted well with the Lady and had started learning along with her. Shu XinYi didn't have much work to do here and he just had to measure the profit margin and tally the accounts of the shop and the warehouse. Shu XinYi could do these minor tasks in less then 2 days, but he wasn't in a hurry moreover since they had to ride a carriage to travel, it was difficult to do quick travels so it was better to stay here for a while and slowly oversee all things.

The night before they left city X, Shu XinYi went out for a walk. The north of the city had hillsides with cool and calming air from where, you can be nearer to the clouds. Obviously Leo was with him. It was Leo who had suggested this place. When he was young, him and his mother used to move along the city outskirt camps until her mother was no longer in a health to travel. Since the hillside were near the outskirts, Leo had once come here alone while he was staying in nearby camps.

They walked a grassy path surrounded by trees and finally found a clearing near the top. The area was inlaid with soft grass, Leo first took out a cloth from his bag to lay on the ground when Xavi stopped him "It's okay, Don't. The grass seems soft it won't hurt to sit directly."

WARNING: 18 + smut scene

Leo did as he said and put the cloth back inside the bag. Both of them sat down and admired the starry sky and the cresent moon. "The night is beautiful." Shu XinYi said looking at the sky.

"Indeed, beautiful." Leo said looking at Xavi, whose dark brown eyes were lit up more beautiful than any star in the sky.

Shu XinYi met with Leo's eyes and smiled. Leo was overwhelmed with the sight and said without thinking much, "You really are beautiful, young master."

Shu XinYi tried to hold his blood rush but his cheeks turned red never the less. Shu XinYi held Leo's cheek with his palm and touched Leo's lips with his own. Shu XinYi looked into Leo's eyes and said "And I really do love you, Leo." He kissed Leo's lips again, this time for longer. Although there was no tongue action, this kiss gave Leo the most intense feeling in his heart.

He held Xavi's head and kissed him back and in no time they had started making out. With the grassy earth as their bed and the night sky as their roof, the two bodies had decided to become one.

Shu XinYi was being kissed senseless by Leo. He had already lost control of his body and was sitting on top of Leo's well built body. He wanted to touch Leo's skin underneath the clothes, but he couldn't remove them on his own so he complained "Off. Take it off Mmph-"

Leo was multitasking very efficiently. He took of both of their shirts and also kissed and held Xavi at the same time. Leo was too immersed in everything and kissed every place he could see on Xavi's body. From his neck down to the two cherries on his chest. He kissed and sucked on his skin which tasted too good. In the cresent moonlight he could see that Xavi's whole body was like a blushing snow bunny, the blood reddening the jade like skin.

Shu XinYi moved his hands down to his own pants to take them off and then tried to take Leo's off as well but he couldn't so he complained again "Take it all off."

Leo diligently took off his pants and then let Xavi do what he wanted. Shu XinYi pushed Leo to the ground and started to lick on Leo's member. Leo's member was raging hard and the pumping veins could actually be seen by Shu XinYi. He came back to reality for a while when he realized that LiFeng's stuff had also looked the same. He obviously knew what his stuff looked like and Leo's stuff looked the same. Is it that the eyes and the stuff remained the same but everything else changed ?

Shu XinYi didn't get time to think on that as he was pushed to the ground with Leo on top of him he said in a worried voice "What is it? Are you regretting now, that you see I actually am a man?"

huh? Did Leo misunderstand his contemplation for regret? Shu XinYi was a bit desperate and had no time to explain so he pushed Leo down on the ground again. He licked his member and lubricated the whole thing with his mouth then he sat on top of Leo and offered him two of his fingers and said "Lick it properly all the way." It was more like a command than a request.

Leo was already on the verge of ecstasy but he didn't dare deny Xavi's orders and licked his fingers to the knuckles the best he could. Leo saw as Xavi took his fingers away from his mouth and inserted them into himself from behind. Xavi's face made a pained expression but he could see Xavi's member twitching as he did so, this view was enough to make Leo blush until his face and body felt warm.

Shu XinYi prepared himself for a while and then lowered himself down on Leo's member. Xavi huffed as he lowered himself onto Leo. Leo was feeling too much and for a moment he couldn't control himself and wanted to push Leo to the ground and enter him ruthlessly but at this moment Xavi said "S-stay. I want to do it. S-so stay like this. Use your hands and hips if you want to ACK-"

Leo had lowered Shu XinYi's body onto himself using his hands and although it pained Shu XinYi a little, it had hit the exact spot. Leo understood the rhythm he should follow and guided Xavi in his up and down movements using his hands. Xavi's face was full of pleasure as he was panting and moaning, moving his hips fervently.

The rhythm improved and their paced fastened. The quite and serene night was filled with desire and love. Leo pulled Xavi's neck down to kiss him and he felt Xavi tremble, The flesh covering his member had also tightened and in only a few more thrusts Leo reached climax as well.

Shu XinYi didn't get up from Leo's body nor did Leo take out his stuff. Obviously they wore no condoms because there were no good options in this world, so Shu XinYi could feel semen inside him. He didn't mind it and just laid on top of Leo for a minute or two, when he felt Leo's member rise again inside him.

"Oye, what are you doing ?" Shu XinYi scolded Leo.

"Bunny, I am sorry but I love you too much so I can't control this. Can we go again?" Leo shamelessly requested.

Shu XinYi wanted to protest but he felt a naughty hand grab his member and rub it a few times until it became hard. Shu XinYi couldn't protest so he just enjoyed the night. They returned to the residence only when the sun started to rise. Shu XinYi wanted to bath by himself but his body was aching all over. He didn't even have to speak when Leo who had yet to leave his room said with his eyes Lit up. "Don't push yourself my young master, Let me help you."

And so Shu XinYi was once again taken by Leo in the wooden tub. They did it only once when Xavi scolded him properly and then Leo diligently cleaned Xavi's body inside out and then the both of them slept all morning in the same bed with Leo as the human pillow.

End of warning
