Summary
"From the start, Lighter knew this was the battle he was destined to lose. The undefeated champion, the unstoppable force of Sons of Calydon, finally met the unmovable wall. There was no way out of it. That was just how life worked. Everything had its opposite, its equal. The more time passed the more inevitable it became. More real. And if Lighter let himself think about it, he didn’t really mind. If anything he longed for it."

Summary
And Xiao is once again faced with these thoughts, niggling little things that weed up through his chest and make his heart ache when Aether is not around; he hates the feeling. He hates even more, however, the idea of approaching Aether with the intent of sticking to his side until he inevitably pushes Xiao away. Xiao has never truly longed for closeness before, and he fears he cannot deny that what he wants with Aether is not an emotional intimacy—they have that already—but a physical one.
And that scares him.
. ..— ~ ☆ ~ —.. .
Showing affection by lip contact had never exactly been something Xiao was eager to try.

Summary
Aether takes a step towards him, and another. Heavy, tired, in everything but his eyes. Xiao uncrosses his arms, opens them, and Aether falls into him like a domino destined to fall.
Aether buries his face on Xiao’s shoulder. Inhaling. Exhaling. Deflates. His hold is tight around Xiao.
“I’m back,” Aether whispers.
Xiao closes his eyes, burying his face in Aether’s golden hair. Xiao holds on just as tight, one hand between Aether’s scapulae and the other a band around his waist. Xiao breathes in moonlight and sweat, the slight spiciness of Aether’s scent underneath everything.
“Welcome home, traveler,” he whispers.
