“I hate this.” Xiao looks down at himself and wrinkles his nose. “Lace? Really?”
“Xiao! You look so pretty!” Venti dances into the room and gasps, stars in his eyes as he takes in his boyfriend's appearance. "I knew that color was going to look so pretty on you!"
He flushes, hands immediately flying down to cover his barely clothed privates. "Why am I dressed like this?"
He hums, prancing around his boyfriend to take in every angle. "Well, I saw this at the store when I was out shopping with Kazuha and Aether and I just knew that the color was perfect for you!” He does a little dance, grinning like a madman. “So pretty!”
“Stop that!” Xiao barks, trying and failing to look intimidating with the blush on his face. “I still don’t know why you have me wearing this…this…” He stops, at a loss for words.
“Panties and lingerie?” Venti offers, eyes still drinking in the form of his beloved clothed in a beautiful green lace top that is sheer enough to show what’s underneath without exposing everything and matching panties with a cute tiny bow at the front. “Xiao, you’re so pretty !”
He looks away. “Thanks,” he grumbles. “Where’s yours?”
He gasps, starry eyes turning into heart eyes. “You wanna see mine?”
“Well, yeah. I mean, for one, I don’t want to be the only one dressed like this. Secondly, I know you’d look cute in something like this and I wanna see!” He clears his throat, trying to get the attention away from him some.
“Oh.” Venti blinks, his own cheeks turning red. “Y-yeah. Lemme go change,” he mumbles, turning around and darting into the other room.
Looking into the full-length mirror, Xiao observes himself and his… clothing …closer. Venti really does have impeccable taste. I guess as long as I don’t have to wear this in public, I’m okay with it.
“Xiao, close your eyes!” Venti chirps, peeking his head around the corner.
Xiao gulps when he sees that his boyfriend has taken his hair out of the braids he normally wears. He knows I’m weak for him when he lets his hair down. “Okay.” Closing his eyes, he listens as Venti pads into the room until he’s standing right in front of him.
“Okay, open your eyes.”
The first thing he notices is how the dark blue color of the lingerie makes Venti’s eyes pop . “Oh…” he breathes, licking his lips as he looks Venti up and down. “Beautiful.”
A light blush tickles Venti’s cheeks. “You think? I wasn’t sure about the color…”
“I don’t think you’re beautiful, I know you’re beautiful.” Reaching out, Xiao pulls his boyfriend into his arms and presses their lips together briefly. “Honestly, I think you would look beautiful covered in mud, but this color looks gorgeous on you. This whole outfit looks gorgeous on you.”
He whines, burying his face in Xiao’s neck. “ Stop! It’s too embarrassing!”
“Mmm, fine. But please know I think you’re the most beautiful person in the world,” he murmurs, running his fingers through Venti’s hair.
Sighing happily, Venti presses a kiss to Xiao’s neck. “I love you, Xiao.”
“Love you too.”
