"Xiao!"

You called the guy in a whisper and immediately heard a light sound of landing on your balcony. You immediately went to the window and went out onto the balcony.

Xiao stands and looks at you. His usual frown now looks gentle. He put his spear behind his back and came up to you, taking your hand and pressing it to his cheek.

You rarely see each other, only at night. During the day, Xiao is busy, and so are you, but at night, nothing and no one bothers you.

"I missed you."

He whispered, pressing his lips softly to your palm, kissing it tenderly. He shows his true side when he's not trying to appear strong and independent; now he's like everyone else, wanting to be cared for.
