Himbo (слэш)

When Lan Xichen comes home, he’s still moving more on auto-pilot than anything else. He closes the door behind him, puts his keys and shoes away, and hangs his coat, like he normally does, but nothing about this feels normal.
Jiang Cheng has confessed to him, has told him the words Lan Xichen has been waiting for, and instead of saying it back, Lan Xichen had frozen and then said ‘Thank you’.
‘Thank you’.
Lan Xichen wishes the ground would open itself to swallow him.
