After being immobilized for more than half a month,his feet were finally liberated in Ethan's support.Marcus carefully stood up and tried to move his feet,and a moment later,he let out a long breath and nodded at Ethan.
Ethan let his heart drop,and the doctor smiled."I told you it would be fine,young man.You're too nervous."
Ethan and Marcus looked at each other.Ethan smiled,a little embarrassed,and thanked the doctor.The two of them left together.
Marcus felt his feet had been well,walking a little slower without feeling uncomfortable.Ethan was not assured,and he also did not care that he was in the hospital,such a public place,and how many people would look at him with strange eyes.He reached out to grasp Marcus's waist,pulled him close to himself,and whispered to remind him:"You walk against me,walk a little slower,be careful!Careful."
Marcus laughed softly,"It's weird walking like that,okay?"
Ethan gave him a smooth squeeze on the waist,"Never mind,weird,you better not push too hard on your feet."
"You just can't wait for me to be in a wheelchair for the rest of my life..."
"Say what."Ethan swept him around and turned into the deserted stairwell,sticking up to think of loved ones.
Marcus pushed him,"Watch it,you're being seen."
With Ethan together for so long,he also found Etha early.This guy has a physical contact compulsion.Although some people still pay some attention,only the two really can't wait to stick in their bodies and always make out with him.Marcu,although not rejected,also feels very helpless.Or should he feel honored that he has enough attraction to Ethan?
Ethan pressed his hand,still insisting on coming over and kissing him twice,"There's no one here,so where's the worry."
"This is a hospital;everywhere smells like sterilized water.Where did you get this mood instead?Let's go."
Ethan was slightly dissatisfied,but the advantage had already been taken,so it was just as well.He wrapped him out of the stairwell and took the elevator to the floor.
The driver had already brought the car and was waiting for them in front of the hospital.Ethan took the car keys and let the driver return on his own,helping Marcus get into the passenger seat and start the car.
"Where are we going?"
"Dinner first."
Ethan booked a Southeast Asian restaurant;there was a passionate band singing,and they were also wearing grass skirts,dancers jumping,and happy belly dancing.Come here to ea.People are not like those places they go to every time are suited and booted elite white-collar workers;most of the diners here are dressed casually,while eating while watching the show,followed by the coaxing and cheering wholly melted into the atmosphere of the place,the whole restaurant is a laughing and very lively!The entire restaurant was buzzing with laughter.
Their position is correct by the window.Outside,neon lights reflect the colors of the city and the restaurant's dim,warm light.In such a place,Ethan also relaxed and casually lo.He took off his suit jacket and pulled out the ti.The shirt buttons are also unbuttoned at the top of the shirt.The appearance of the evil smile has a different kind of past charm.
Marcus glanced at him before returning to the food on his plate.Ethan poured him a drink.Marcus's eyes fell on the ring finger of his left hand,which had a ring on it.He paused momentarily and asked,"Are you hot?"
Ethan smiled,"It's more natural to relax like this."
A little girl with a basket of flowers went from table to table selling roses,and most of the guys were happy to shell out a few bucks to give to one of the ladies sitting there in exchange for a smile.The little girl came over to their table,looking at them with big eyes,and Marcus took out twenty dollars for one of the delicate red roses and handed it to Ethan,lifting his jaw to indicate that he should take it.
Ethan smiled,"For me?"
"Uh-huh."
The person who sent the flowers'tone was still as flat as Eve's,as if he were doing the most usual and natural thing;Ethan smiled lightly,took the flowers,cupped them in his hands,and turned them around,saying,"Thank you~."
His voice was full of smiles.He then took out his money and picked another fully bloomed flower from the little girl's basket,folding a large portion of the stem and handing it over to Marcus.
Marcus raises an eyebrow,a little unsure of his actions,and the corners of Ethan's lips rise a little more as he inserts the flower directly into his suit pocket.
Marcus's light gray suit jacket with delicate red roses evokes a kind of indescribable forbidden/lust beauty;Ethan looks and feels very satisfied,then reaches out and cups his chin again,like molesting a little girl,like teasing,"People are more delicate than flowers~."
Marcus'eyes similarly flooded with smiles,"Each other."
After dinner,both of them had a great time;Ethan got up to go to the restroom,Marcus called the waiter to pay the bill,and the other party smiled and asked him if he wanted to set up a membership card.Marcus originally wanted to refuse,but when he heard that this month they will hold different themed activities every night,and when it happens to be a member's birthday,he can also help to plan the birthday party and will send surprises,he was touched for a moment,and then he said,"I'm so happy to see you.When he heard that they would be organizing different themed events every night this month and that they could help plan a birthday party and send a surprise to the members,his heart was touched for a moment.When he thought that he had accidentally seen Ethan's passport before and that his birthday was before the end of the next week,he agreed to use Ethan's name and cell phone number to set up a membership card by magic.
Marcus never remembers his birthday,and after coming to China to work,he hasn't celebrated his birthday for five or six years.The first time he wanted to hold a birthday party on a whim,it was for someone else.When he got the membership card from the waiter,Marcus was stunned for a moment,and then he smiled lowly.
From the restroom back,Ethan sees Marcus,a person sitting there with a silly happy loo;he also follows the frozen for a while,not knowing whether it is his illusion.Marcus recently gave him the feeling of being far from the previous cold,talking more up face smile is also more.Perhaps it is just from the past;he does not know enough about Marcus,or maybe Marcus.The other side of Marcus will probably only be revealed in front of the close people who do not know.
Close people...thought of this word.Ethan's heart flushed with a warm feeling.He coughed lightly,reminding Marcus that he was back.Then he sat back in the chair and asked,"What are you giggling here alone?"
"No,"Marcus curbed his smile and clutched the membership card into his palm to cover it without a trace.Although it was the first time he had ever done such a thing,he still wanted to give Ethan some surprises as well.I've paid the bill;let's go back."
Ethan felt his expression a bit uncomfortable.Still,he didn't ask too many questions and stood up first.He walked to Marcus,naturally reaching out and wrapping his hand around his waist,helping him slowly walk out of the restaurant.
******
As Marcus expected,Ethan's birthday is a week later,on Friday.This guy also wholly does not remember their birthday,but this also allows Marcus to create a surprise;two days ago,he called the restaurant to make a reservation,and the other party was pleased to promise to help him carefully plan would give him an unforgettable birthday surprise,let Marcus!Early this morning,Ethan sent Marcus to the door of his company;before getting out of the car,Marcus also urged him to come over half an hour earlier this afternoon.
Ethan did not care.Initially,he would leave work early every Friday,so Marcus said so,and he also responded without much thought.
After that,the whole day's work was just like every working day:busy but not chaotic.When the hand on the watch pointed to five o'clock,Ethan didn't hesitate.He decisively finished the work at hand and explained the rest of the things to his secretary.Then,he got up,went out the door,and took the elevator to the underground parking lot.
Just as he got into the car,Marcus called.Ethan was about to say he would be there soon,but Marcus said he was waiting for him at the restaurant they went to last Saturday and asked him to drive there directly.
Hang up the phone,Ethan was puzzled,driving the car out of the parking lot,only to find that the weather at noon looked perfect this moment;it even started to rain,poured down,and rain and fog were too big even in front of the road is very difficult to see clearly,so can only slow down the speed of the slow drive.
Outside the restaurant,Marcus communicated with the clerk during dining time to send a cake before the first came over.The store's resident band will also sing birthday songs to help him send birthday wishes.The entire restaurant has been pre-decorated,and warm yellow candlelight is everywhere.The atmosphere is very cozy.
Still leaning against the floor-to-ceiling window position,Ethan has not yet come;Marcus only first let a cup of lemonade,hands clasped,fingers unconsciously fiddling with the ring on the ring finger of his left hand,the heart of some indescribable nervousness.
He had previously said he wanted to marry Ethan,and he was very frank at that time,but now he just wanted to give him a birthday;Marcus felt as if today was the day he was proposing to him.
The ring on Ethan's hand had been there all along,but Marcus had put it away after returning from London and hadn't worn it again,and Ethan had complained about it.This morning,Marcus took the ring out before he left the house and put it on his finger as if he'd decided about it.
The rain was too heavy,and the traffic was jammed.Ethan looked at the watch on his wrist;it was already later than the time he promised Marcus;just at this moment,waiting for the red light,he took out his cell phone and wanted to talk to Marcus so that he could order something first.Still,he slid open the screen and found that the battery was almost out,he was about to dial Marcus's number,and then looked at the front of the car had already started,and hurriedly took hold of the phone in one hand and stepped on the gas to follow him.
After crossing the intersection,he turned left and took a shortcut to a less crowded street.Ethan held the steering wheel with one hand and grabbed his cell phone with the other,trying to dial Marcus's number,but as soon as he flipped through his address book,his phone automatically shut down due to a lack of battery.
Ethan cursed but looked up and was surprised to see someone holding an umbrella on the side of the street where no one had been.He had walked into the middle of the road and reached the front of his car.
Almost instantly,the brakes were pressed to the end.Ethan was shocked by cold sweat,but it was still a step too late.Even with the umbrella,the person in front of the car fell before his eyes.
Back to God's,Ethan hurriedly stopped the car and pulled open the door to go down in the rain.Around the front of the vehicle,the person who had fallen to the ground in distress raised his head to look at him.Both froze.
William?
