It's a little far from you. Something's blocking the view.
I had to tiptoe and pretend to be closer.
You can't act. You have to make faces.
Carefully see what you do across the way.
Air between us
The sparks are spreading.
I'm waiting for you to show up.
The easy-going music rang throughout the room as Guan Xian sang with silly faces. Xia Sha is standing beside him while preparing to sing the next lines.
I think it's the law of gravity.
Finding you and want to say,
Together I and you, slowly become closer.
I want to go to the South Pole with you.
I want to see the meteor with you.
Strange how I can still think to go with you.
They looked at each other while singing the sweet song together.
To get your attention so I can tell you.
I love you. This sweet happiness quickly suffocates.
To gather my heart and hear my voice.
I will follow your tracks in four, three, two, one.
The program makes a clapping sound while Guan Xian grinned after singing. He looks at the television, which still portraying Jolin Tsai's face.
"You like Jolin?" she asked, suddenly curious.
Guan Xian nodded his head almost instantly.
"She is my goddess! That is why I despite Xiao Ni liking Jay Chou." He proclaimed, still staring straight at the screen. "How can you cheat on this angel?" he asked.
Xia Sha rolls her eyes. Ignoring little sour flavor on her heart when he looks at Jolin with so much affection.
"Why did you badmouthing your own species?" She remarks. Guan Xian caught the little smug smirk on her lips. He raised his eyebrow and confidently reply.
"What kind? Handsome, rich, and smart? Gee, thanks."
"..." Sure.
Xia Sha went to the little monitor, choosing another song to see. She deliberately chooses Jay Chou since he said he did not like him. Guan Xian almost groans when he saw what Xia Sha chooses.
"Really?" He threw his hand on the air exaggeratedly.
Xia Sha grins and nods her head excitedly. She sang failure at love because she always has like the MV. Guan Xian decided to sit on the sofa now, watching Xia Sha soothing voice from behind.
A touch of sadness is so beautiful.
The storylines are written by you, a little confusing between us.
...
The winter without you
I can only keep singing
Till you appear
Sealing the Mic, only singing what you love.
Goodbye, do not Cry, cry it all out.
People will leave when the song ended. You left too.
I admit I'm a failure at love.
You left too quickly,
and I'm still relying on you.
The tears in my eyes, I can't keep them back in
Your smile is beautiful as always...
She finishes the song beautifully, gaining a clap from the program. They even gave her a 98 score. Xia Sha turns her back with a smug face, she pointed at the screen and boasted.
"I got 98, higher than every score you got before."
"Hmph, your song is so depressing. I almost fall asleep now." He complained. "No wonder you always look frustrated. Even your song is depressing."
"..." Thank you :)
He ends up singing another TF Boy song, the manual of youth, and adore. At this second, Xia Sha has confirmed that Guan Xian is a TF Boy's fans.
He hides under the 'The song make me feel younger' passage. His favorite sentence is still, I am the sun of the world. Truly, describing her narcissistic personality.
Follow my left hand and the right in slow motion
Right hand, left hand, slow motion reply
The song makes you happy
Have you fallen in love with me?
He playfully pointed at Xia Sha and winked his eyes, make Xia Sha laughed along the way when he danced along with three teenagers on the screen.
"Come on! Don't sulk alone there, sing with me!" He pulls Xia Sha up from her seat. Forcing her to sing with him, again.
I just want to adore you.
Is it love or not?
I still don't understand
Happy things I want to share with you.
I want to give you a shoulder when you are sad
For the first time feel nervous for a person
Although it's only singing, Xia Sha has to admit, it does make her felt younger. Especially after dancing and jumping to Manual of Youth. One of the things she thought she can't do because it is just too childish for her images.
But Guan Xian has thought her something tonight, it is, "F*ck reputation! If I want to sing, I will sing! If I don't want to wear pants, I won't wear pants!"
The night has liberating, she felt satisfied with tonight's date. She has prepared the whole thank you for today's date speech when she sees the sign of her hotel.
"Thank you for-"
Swish~
Guan Xian sports car just walk past the hotel, who now getting smaller and smaller from the reviewing mirror.
"?"
Xia Sha is dumbstruck, she pointed at the hotel and look at Guan Xian with a confused face.
"My Hotel is..." She stuttered. Looking back and forth to the back and front. Guan Xian frowns at her and shook his head slightly.
"Who said our date has ended." He sighed and patiently talk to her slowly as if he is explaining something complicated to a kid. "I said, the karaoke is just the beginning of our dates."
"But, it's almost midnight." She frowned.
"And so?"
"I should go home...?" Xia Sha sounds unsure herself.
"Even if you cinderella and need to go home before 12, I won't return you to your fairy godmother now." He chuckles, glancing at her with adoring eyes. Xia Sha rolled her eyes when he called her honey.
Thank God it was dark and he could not see clearly her heated cheeks right now.
"That is not a good idea. What if my stepmother comes back and finds me disappear?" She asked with a thin smile.
She always god irritated every time she heard 'stepmother' that word. Weirdly it doesn't happen this time. She even jokes about it.
"Hohoho, then I'll need to hide your from your stepmother forever." He replies.
"Prince Charming much?" She swears she has no intention to tease him or anything. He does appear like a prince charming in her eyes.
Oh God, please help her. Why did she turn into this pathetic girl around him?
"I am no prince charming. I'm more into the dark knight role," he thought after a second. Xia Sha nodded her head and let him got what he wanted. Guan Xian bought her to watch the midnight movie next.
Xia Sha's heart starts to pound as she remembers what couples likely do in a dark cinema. Moreover, it's midnight, nobody will be around. Will he kiss her...?
She shook her head frantically. No way, why did she has such a dirty mind now? Guan Xian just messing up with her whole thinking system. She sighed and trail him to enter the cinema.
The movie starts at 1.15 A.M
And just for reader information, Xia Sha completely guesses it wrongly. They almost run out of the good seat because so many lovers watching the midnight movie together.
Xia Sha strictly scolds herself when Guan Xian excuses himself to the toilet. To make up for her embarrassment (because if she keeps waiting for Guan Xian and doing nothing, her mind might drive her crazy) she queued for popcorn and snack.
Guan Xian comes back in the middle. He smoothly makes his way beside her, ignoring people almost yell at him for cutting the line. Xia Sha lips twitched, Guan Xian this guy, keep attracting people with his grand entrance.
She needs to adjust herself to get attention if she wants to continue this date. She successfully handed the two bottles of coke to Guan Xian while she holding the big popcorn herself.
They waited for the movie to starts while eating the popcorn. Talking about random stuff then laughed. It is always happy and comfortable around Guan Xian.
After entering the dark and cold studio, Xia Sha makes herself comfortable in her seat. When the cold air conditioner starts to make her shiver when she adjusted her seat, she felt a piece of clothes has fallen on her body.
She blinks and the fresh fragrance black suit Guan Xian wears for the whole day had her body wrapped underneath. She turns her head slowly to Guan Xian, staring at him who seems focused on the big screen already.
She chuckled suddenly, leaning her body closer to him.
"We are on the premium seat you know. They store the blanket underneath the seat." She whispered, giggling inside her heart when she observes Guan Xian nose wrinkles slightly.
He pulls back her body and sipped the coke on the drink holder. Pretended that he never heard a thing from her. Xia Sha's eyes crease into half-moon shapes. However, she did not return his suit, no, or take the blanket out.
Guan Xian seems relief as she could hear his relief sigh. She even caught him murmured, "Thank god she is not so dense."
