First ride

Jingyu smiled warmly as he picked up something from the handle of the bike. "Here. We'll match perfectly now." he said.

Xuan took it from his hand and found that it was a black leather jacket, exactly like the one Wei Jingyu was wearing.

She pushed her arms into it and tried to hide a smile as the jacket was too big for her.

Wei Jingyu smiled apologetically as he began to fold the sleeves to the jacket Xuan was wearing upto her wrists.

"I'm sorry I couldn't find one your size. I just thought it would look really nice on you." he said, looking down and avoiding Xuan's eyes.

Ying Xuan carefully watched Wei Jingyu's face as he folded the sleeves.

His hair were tied, but a few strands escaped and fell over his eyes. His forehead was a little creased as he tried to focus and brown eyes squinted. Jingyu's lips were pressed into a line and his sharp jaw seemed tightened.

Without thinking what she was doing, Xuan reached out and tried to tuck a stray strand behind his hair. But the strand was too short and fell back on Jingyu's forehead.

Wei Jingyu looked up into Xuan's eyes at this moment and Ying Xuan blushed, dropping her hand. She noticed the tips of Jingyu's ears turn pink before she dropped her gaze to their shoes and signed, 'Where are we going?'

"It's a surprise." The mischief in Wei Jingyu's voice made Xuan look up, curious.

He winked and smiled before stepping back, putting some distance between them.

Wei Jingyu then got on the bike, motioning for Xuan to get on.

'I didn't know you owned a bike.' Ying Xuan signed before swinging her around the bike and getting on behind Jingyu. She was glad she had worn pants today. It would have been a nightmare had she been wearing a dress.

"I own more than one. But not here, seeing as I can't get much use out of them. I bought this one a few weeks ago." Jingyu replied as he started the bike and the two were off.

Ying Xuan had never ridden a bike and was quite nervous.

She had always travelled in cars, her dad made sure of it. And back home, she didn't have friends to go out riding with.

And riding bikes was the last thing Xi's friends would think about doing.

As they were off, Xuan tightly caught hold of Jingyu's shoulders and closed her eyes, anticipating something very bad.

But as soon as the bike sped up, Xuan's eyes flew open as she looked around. She loved this feeling!!! It was almost like she was flying! Ying Xuan loved the thrill of the speed and the feel of the wind.

She removed her hands from Jingyu's shoulders and spread them out like wings.

Wei Jingyu seemed to misunderstand Xuan's actions and slowed the bike as he asked, "What's wrong? Are you scared?"

Xuan punched his shoulder as soon as the bike slowed down, urging him to speed up.

Jingyu seemed to get the message and sped up, going even faster then before.

And the smile plastered on Ying Xuan's face was bigger than ever before.
