My second aunt, my mother's second sister, and I haven't seen each other for about ten years, suddenly came to me one day.

"Gangzi, I want your cousin to live with you for a few days, do you think it's okay?"

What can I say, okay.

It may be that there are no people in the family who go to school. Xiaoming and I didn't realize that it was already summer vacation, and the students were all on vacation to enjoy the vicious sunshine.

My cousin, a third-year student at the same university as me, is the same age as Xiao Ming.The young man is full of youth, with a slightly dark complexion, and a sunny smile. He is said to be the captain of the basketball team, followed by a large group of male and female fans.

In fact, the two of us have not seen each other for ten years, but he is not unfamiliar at all. When we meet, he calls "Hi cousin", and then hooks shoulders and backs like a pair of good brothers who are born and die.

I introduced to him, this is Xiao Ming, my brother whom I... recognize.

"Hello, Xiao Ming!" My cousin immediately let go of my shoulder and went to catch Xiao Ming's, "My name is Gao Yang, just call me Yang Zi."

I went over to knock off the hand he was holding, and pulled Xiao Ming to my side, "Xiao Ming has weak bones, you should move lightly."

Xiao Ming was at a loss, you didn't say anything when you moved so hard on the bed.

My cousin didn't understand either, so if I put a shoulder on it, it wouldn't break people, and it wasn't made of mud.

There are only two bedrooms at home, and Xiao Ming and I usually sleep separately when we have no activities at night. Now that Gao Yang is here, the allocation of rooms has become a big problem.

"Who am I sleeping with?" Gao Yang asked.

"Sleep by yourself." I said, "You sleep in Xiao Ming's room."

"Huh? Where does Xiao Ming sleep?"

"Same room with me."

Gao Yang is a pure boy, he nodded, "Can't you two sleep together?"

"Is it okay to sleep with you?" I gritted my teeth.

"This bed is big," Gao Yang took it for granted, "And I think I'm a little thinner than you."

"Why do men want to be so thin?" I disdain, "I have been working for so many years and still maintain such a good figure."

Gao Yang:? ? ?Who wants to compare your figure? ? ?

But young people are easily aroused to win. He rolled up his short sleeves to reveal his stiff biceps, and showed me his six-pack abs.

"I'm eight yuan." I said and lifted the hem of my clothes.

"Wow, really," Gao Yang leaned over and poked with his index finger, "You're a bit strong."

I put down my clothes, trying not to look too smug on my face.

"So," Gao Yang returned to the original point, "won't Xiao Ming sleep with me?"

I resisted the urge to snap off this cousin's head, and slept with your uncle's second brother-in-law.

"Brother Yangyang," Xiao Ming ran over, "I prepared a new quilt for you, are you going to sleep with me at night?"

Gao Yang giggled and hugged Xiao Ming's dog's head. He was just half a head taller than Xiao Ming. This movement was very easy to do, "Xiao Ming is really virtuous, virtuous."

"Stop." I gave an order, "...What the hell is Brother Yangyang? Who is older between you two?"

"Me, I'm three months old!" Gao Yang raised his hand.

I felt like my back molars were going to be worn through.

Gao Yang is a very interesting boy.

For peers.

I am five years older than Xiao Ming, and I feel that there is a deep generation gap at the age of five.

After Gao Yang came, Xiao Ming obviously became more cheerful and talked more. He would discuss the hottest topics with Gao Yang, which were things that I, a dog who is usually busy in the office, would not pay attention to.

Although Xiao Ming is relatively restrained in comparison, it is because of his personality. Generally speaking, he is much better than before.

My university is in the city next door. Gao Yang said that he came here this time because he had a project to do here, and I happened to live here again.

Yes, I forgot to mention that this Gao Yang is actually from the Department of History.

It's rare for me to get off work on time this day, and I want to go out to dinner and watch a movie with Xiao Ming, and find a hotel to spend the night by the way.

Really, I'm almost suffocated.

When I got home, I waited and waited, but no one was there. Either one or both were gone.

I think I was probably going crazy in a hurry, and I started thinking about the pair Gao Yang x Xiao Ming.

My serious and infatuated painting style has become farther and farther away from me.

I called Xiao Ming, but no one answered, and I called Gao Yang, but no one answered.

It won't happen, will it?

I suddenly panicked, and the feeling of being at a loss that I couldn't grasp began to pervade again.

elder brother.

Brother Yangyang.

Xiao Ming probably wouldn't know about my overwhelming jealousy.

I do not know either.

Gao Yang and Xiao Ming came back about half an hour later, covered in sweat, and Xiao Ming's eyes were bright, and when he saw me, he called "Brother" excitedly.

I was angry and said in a rough voice, "Where have you been?"

Xiao Ming seemed frightened and dared not speak.Gao Yang was so narrow-minded that he could act as a sieve and said for him: "Let's go play. There is a field near here. There are a few people playing there. We have a big fight with them!"

I was a little surprised and asked Xiao Ming, "Can you play ball?"

Xiao Ming nodded. He used to play physical education when he was in school.

I kept silent, Xiao Ming was a normal high school boy after all before, it is more normal to know how to play.

It's so weird that I rarely see it.

I was falling asleep at night, and half asleep, I felt a hand touch my face.

I woke up suddenly, thinking of the female ghost who appeared in the middle of the night in a horror movie, stroking the male lead's face with cold fingers, and then grabbed his neck.

But the hand on the face is warm.

I opened my eyes, didn't draw the curtains before going to bed tonight, and found it was Xiao Ming by the moonlight.

He was kneeling on the edge of the bed, his chin resting on one arm and looking at me, the other hand was resting lightly on my face.

"Xiao Ming?" I said vaguely, "Why are you kneeling, come up."

Xiao Ming stood up lightly and got into my quilt.

In summer, I set the temperature of the air conditioner at 26 degrees before going to bed. It is estimated that the cooling effect of the air conditioner is too good, and Xiao Ming's feet are a little cold after kneeling on the ground for a while.

"Don't get frostbite on a hot day." I covered him with the quilt, he hugged me sideways, and curled up in my arms.

"Brother, I'm sorry."

"Huh?" I hugged him back and patted his back unconsciously.

"Are you angry today?" He said, "I didn't intentionally not answer your phone call. By the time I saw it, I had already walked downstairs."

"……I am not angry."

"You have."

"No."

Xiao Ming stopped talking, taking care of my old man's face.

"Xiao Ming," I asked suddenly, "what else did you like to do before?"

"Me? Let me think about it..." Xiao Ming thought for a while and said, "I didn't have anything to do before. I was always in class when I was in school, and sometimes I would play ball with my friends. After school I I don’t go home either, I want to do some part-time work to make some money..."

"When I was young, I could play by myself when my mother was still there. There was a small park next to my house, where many children piled sand together to play peek-a-boo and so on..."

"Are you playing well?"

"It's okay, although I'm a little short, but I can jump high...I'm good at running with the ball, and many people can't stop me..." Xiao Ming's voice had a little smile, and I listened to the corners of his mouth. Not consciously rising.

Xiao Ming said something incessantly afterwards, and I responded to him from time to time by the side, um, and then, like this, hahaha.

I've never chatted with Xiao Ming like this before.In the air-conditioned room on a summer night, there is a buzzing sound from the machine, and there are frogs croaking outside. I don’t know if it’s in heat. We hug each other and lie on the side of the bed, and we can hear each other with nasal sounds and sleepiness. You can feel the smooth and rhythmic heartbeat of the other party.

Everything makes people feel at ease, as if this night will not pass, and as if this night is just a short stop.

At some point, we all fell asleep.

When we woke up the next morning, we were still in the same position before going to bed. I woke up before Xiao Ming, and I felt a little funny when I heard his humming.

He got up and got out of bed, went to the living room and saw Gao Yang who was stretching.

"Wake up so early?"

"Well, I have a lot of things to do today." Gao Yang rubbed his eyes, as if he was still asleep, "But Xiao Ming woke up earlier than me, and he was gone when I got up. Cousin, you know he's going to sleep?" Where is it?"

"I'm on the bed." I calmly poured a glass of water from the kettle and put it cold.

"Oh ah?"

"What's wrong?" I looked at him.

"...It's nothing." Gao Yang swallowed and blinked uncomfortably.

I smiled.

I know he sees it.

Exactly what I want.
