Work Text:

Chi Cheng's hands rest above his little mouse's head and over his legs captured on his lap as he zones into watching his beautiful da bao lean so cutely and comfortably against the back of his stuffed brown leather couch. While remaining completely relaxed with how close the two of them are.

Wu Suo Wei's eyes color with laughter and happiness as he playfully avoids Chi Cheng bringing their faces closer together by sliding ever so slightly down and to the right of him.

He slides a bit more and it becomes a game of advance and retreat between him and Chi Cheng. As they play, the second most beautiful smile Chi Cheng has ever seen on his da bao’s lips appears as he becomes a tiny curled up mouse against the back of the couch and his body.

Honest and joyful giggles escape Wu Suo Wei's mouth as his cheek gets kissed as he has nowhere left to retreat from his big snake he was drawing closer to him on purpose this whole time. Not because of calculation ,or manipulative seduction, but because he genuinely wanted Chi Cheng to chase him, catch him.

Chi Cheng smiles like the simp he is for his da bao, at hearing his little mouse's giggle and his eyes usually so fiercely intense; softened into deep pools of love.

The dim yellow sunlight filling the room falls over Chi Cheng's shoulder and filters through his hair as he sits up. The light gives Wu Suo Wei all he needs to see the smile and love on Chi Cheng's face aimed at him and his heart flutters and his cheeks heat with a blush.

As quick as the snakes he has grown fond of taking care of and the snakes he knows are important to Chi Cheng. Wu Suo Wei strikes out and plants a kiss on Chi Cheng's cheek before curling back up into a little ball against the leather cushions of the couch.

Chi Cheng's smile grows in size and it displays the same amount of honest joy that Wu Suo Wei's giggle had held. Chi Cheng silently coils himself around his little mouse’s body as he lays down on the couch and his little mouse laughs over his collarbone as he nestles into his body like he has found a warm home there. Like Chi Cheng has long since found in him.
