Summary
So here, on a random nondescript motel bed, lying next to Cheng Xiaoshi, whose breaths come and go, soft and even, Lu Guang stares. He counts the rise and fall of his chest. Watches the lamplight illuminate his face, and thinks, not for the first time, about death.
But also about living.
He wonders, sometimes, if it's possible to love a person too much. If, perhaps, it might be kinder to distance yourself, to keep them at arm's length. To save yourself the pain. But no, he knows that's not true. Love, once given, isn't a thing that can be taken back, and he gave it to Cheng Xiaoshi long ago. And if he can't keep Cheng Xiaoshi safe, then at least he can love him, with his whole self.
Love, he knows, is its own kind of immortality.
---
or, 3+1 times Lu Guang stares at Cheng Xiaoshi, and one time Cheng Xiaoshi decides to find out why.
