Spring lovers: We who are inseperable

Unaware of someone was staring at her, Eliana started to rub her arms to warm them up, flinching she mumbled, "Let's go in," as she proceeded inside the bedroom.

As she entered the room, her eyes met with Li Wei who was also entering the room from the front door. As their eyes met, a spark ignited in both of them, and the best part was that both, Eliana and Li Wei weren't unaware of this.

And yet again, the atmosphere has become awkward. Li Wei was the one to break the silence when he said, "It's getting late now we should sleep," as he glanced towards his phone confirming the time. It was 10:00 pm now.

Eliana who was practically dazed came to her senses and gave a slight nod, thus with small steps Eliana and Li Wei went towards the bed.

Li Wei sat on the right side of the bed and Eliana on the left side of the bed. Eliana was nervous for some reason, and it would be safe to say that, Li Wei was also not normal to some extent.

Without thinking much Li Wei decided to go to bed first. As Eliana felt the space beside her slump, with her back facing Li Wei, she knew that he was lying on the bed.

CLICK

With a click of a switch, the room had become dark on Li Wei's side as he had switched off the lights on his side, Eliana peeked behind her and found Li Wei sleeping with his back on her side.

A low sigh could be heard from Eliana's lips and thus, she laid on the bed, with her back facing Li Wei's.

CLICK

When Li Wei found that the light towards Eliana's side had been switched off, he turned his head to take a peek towards Eliana's side, noticing that the breathing had become steady, Li Wei, after waiting for some moments turned towards Eliana.

Seeing Eliana's back towards him, he realized that how far they were, even though they were lying just next to each other, their hearts seemed distant and unaware of what feelings the other person had.

If you question when one can feel the most helpless? When you can't say what's in your heart to the person next to you afraid that if you might tell them, you will lose them forever, or when even though the person is physically with you, you don't know if his or her heart is with you or not.

For me, and I am sure most of you, it must be the second one right? May it be first or second, one thing remains common, the feeling when you think that what if it goes wrong.

When the person you love is close to you but your hearts are far away from each other, distant, like a bridge, you know you can go to the other end, but unaware of what is there for you at that other end, that's what holds you to cross it.

Some of you will say What is so difficult is it? All you have to do is to cross the bridge, take the risk, you never know until you try. It can be the best decision of your life.

I agree with that, but what if on the other end is heartbreak? If you were at that place, would you take that risk? Ignoring thousands of what-ifs, Li Wei can also take this step, right now! He had the chance but he had no intention of doing it.

The human mind has a tendency to give weight to the negative aspect of the situation. In most situations, it is biased towards negativity. And that is what will hold you from going to the other end.

I am not saying that it happens every time, but yes, most of the time it does. That unknown feeling when your mind thinks of the cons of a particular situation, all of you must be familiar with that feeling.

That feeling is what Li Wei was feeling right now.

Thinking this, unknown to him, Li Wei's eyes closed and he drifted off to sleep. But, there was someone who didn't sleep yet, that was Eliana.

She wasn't asleep, she had just closed her eyes clenching the blanket tightly, keeping her guard up, she was afraid that something might happen, the way she gets lost in Li Wei whenever they came close, she was afraid that she won't be able to control herself if Li Wei made a move.

When Li Wei made some movements, Eliana could feel that he had turned towards her, her heartbeat increased slightly.

1....2.....3.....4.....5.....10 minutes had passed and everything was calm, Eliana peeked a little and what she noticed was an asleep Li Wei.

There was a slight sting in Eliana's heart, even though she was happy that nothing happened, but she won't deny that some part of her was hoping for something.

His eyes were shut, the eyebrows that were tensed all night, had relaxed, opposite to his cold aura, he looked peaceful and warm in his sleep. A person who had a clear heart, that's how he looked right now.

Unknown to Eliana, she had already turned towards Li Wei, her face facing his, maybe the curiosity about how he looked while sleeping had hit her.

His long eyelashes that were covering his eyes, in which there was a gaze that could pierce through anyone, which was capable to scare anyone, were pretty.

The lips that uttered cold and dangerous words, were now resting. Unconsiously, Eliana's hand moved to touch those lips that seemed to attract her for some reason. But she had returned back to her senses before she could touch them.

Taking back her hand, she again turned her back towards Li Wei, and after some time fell into a deep slumber.

......

The sunshine made its way to the room through the curtains and illuminated the room. A swift gust of wind blew the curtain from its place.

In the room the two figures laid on the bed next to each other, facing each other. One of them, which was Li Wei, on his peaceful face a frown formed on the eyebrows. After a series of facial movements, his dark eyes finally opened, little at first and then fully after some time.

As soon as he opened his eyes in front of them was a face, a sweet face that was the best thing he could see as soon as his eyes open. Eliana's sleeping face was seen right next to his.

A smile came upon Li Wei's face thinking that every morning from now, he will be waking up like this, seeing his Yu Yan's face.

His eyes didn't stop staring at Eliana's face, it was like they were looking at every small detail of it.
