Aether x Xiao: A big guardian.

Chapter 3:

The change had come about subtly. At first, neither of them noticed, as they were simply nightly dates. Dinners outdoors, or at some other establishment. But several weeks later, the little time to eat together each night had transformed into two little times: lunch and dinner. It turned out that for Xiao, food had become a guilty pleasure. A yashka didn't need to eat, although he knew that adeptus could and did have favorite dishes. Cloud Keeper, for example, greatly enjoyed tea, and several of the more traditional dishes of Liyue. For him, it was all about the taste...and the fact that he had subconsciously associated delicious food with Aether. Probably due to eating together every day.

Soon, just a couple of months later, even though he was alone and struggling in his labor, often seeing trees with fruit, Xiao would allow himself to eat one...or two. And that was fine, until the yashka's body, accustomed to eating once every few months...suddenly had an abundance of food to process. Xiao gained weight. It wasn't a big deal, at all. A couple of kilos here, more softness in the abdomen and a couple of kilos there. Perhaps, feeling a little heavier after each meal. Nothing serious...until today.

－Xiao! －

It was almost midnight, by one of Liyue's many lakes. Paimon had eaten too much before dinner and was asleep under a tree canopy, and Aether was roasting chicken and mushroom skewers over a campfire, carefully resting them on a large papyrus leaf when they were ready. Eating with Xiao, the hugs afterwards, and the goodbye kiss when it was time for him to leave was undoubtedly the highlight of his days.

The traveler had noticed Xiao's gradual weight gain, but honestly, it didn't bother him at all. Yashka himself seemed to notice the changes in his body but not give them any importance, as if these side effects were temporary. It made sense, for a non-human guardian. Aether was ready to explain that his belly wouldn't magically disappear...when Xiao asked. What was the need to rush things?

－You finally called...－Yashka's voice came in, in the same soft tone as always. He seemed a little sulky.

Aether stood for a moment, hugging him around the waist. His hands rested 'innocently' on the green-haired boy's somewhat plump hip, squeezing gently.

－You can't scold me this time. We see each other every day, so why are you in a bad mood?－the blonde asked, in a slightly playful tone.

Xiao's cheeks flushed at the touch, but far from complaining, he wrapped his arms around Aether's neck, giving him even more freedom. The touches on his waist and stomach felt... good. Even though he hated to admit it.

－My shirt...it's tight. I had to do without what I usually wear adorning it, because...－Xiao's voice lowered even further, clearing his throat and muttering, totally embarrassed.－They don't fit me...my pants are tight too...And it's all because of the delicious food you prepare! A guardian yashka shouldn't look like that.－

Aether smirked. So Xiao had finally noticed. The blond looked down at the green-haired boy's stomach. Plump and round, though still not as big as it could be... he slid his hands over it and caressed it, squeezing a small roll on the side.

－Who says what a yashka should look like? I think you look good, and as long as you can do your job...－Aether mentioned. He reached up and cupped both of her cheeks. They were already feeling a bit softer, in fact.－Are you OK.

－Of course I look good to you, because this was your fault...－Xiao murmured, sighing.－These side effects of eating too much don't bother me...－

Aether stifled a chuckle.－You don't like them? Then I guess you won't want the chicken and mushroom skewers I made today...－The blond commented, moving away and returning to the campfire, taking out the last uncooked skewer.

The fire was still burning, and the yashka sat down next to the traveler. He looked at the skewers for a few moments, sighing. Finally he took one from the stick, unable to resist the delicious aroma.

－Well...meat is healthy, isn't it? I heard it from some merchants in town...it's okay to eat some skewers with you...－Xiao decided.

He moved his body closer to Aether's, pressing their shoulders together, and bit into a piece of chicken. The blond imitated him, and so they both began to eat together. It turned out to be an intimate and romantic moment. They had been in this period of courtship for more than several weeks, and...for both of them it was difficult not to move on to something more.

That moment of dinner together was only interrupted by occasional comments or small anecdotes of what had happened since the previous night until now that they had seen each other again. When there were no more skewers, they both allowed themselves a moment of intimacy, Aether resting his head on the yashka's shoulder.

－I think it's been a long time since...－Xiao began to speak, softly. His expression seemed calm but thoughtful.－I haven't felt true peace for decades.－

The blond looked up at him, but without moving away. He took his hand and began to caress it slowly, encouraging him to continue. Because although it is true that they are closer now, sharing his feelings is something that Xiao is still inexperienced in.

－I never complained about my job. Morax saved me, and I will do my duty forever to thank him. But... I never realized how lonely it can be.－Xiao said, his voice soft. He looked at Aether, a soft blush appearing on his cheeks.－Now that I have you, I can't imagine my life if you were gone. Your presence is something I enjoy. You are certainly different from most humans.－

The traveler gulped, looking at the campfire in front of them both and then turning his gaze back to Xiao. His words were like a caress to the heart. After so much time searching for his sister, Aether had met many people. Kind, generous, unfriendly or arrogant. The only thing they all had in common was that they all wanted something from him. But... Xiao was different. He was like a lonely cat that was afraid to trust others. Maybe that was why they were so attracted to each other.

－Hey, Xiao...－Aether moved away from his shoulder a little, and moved until he was more face to face. His face turned almost as red as a tomato, and after clearing his throat shyly, he looked into the yashka's golden eyes.－I think it's a good time, and...just like you said, I can't imagine my life without you. So, would you allow me to be your partner?－

Not a “Will you be my boyfriend?”, no. For Aether, Xiao being his boyfriend was a privilege that had to be earned. That confession had come out of the blue, really. That is to say, it had sounded harsh to the blond to say it like that, so soon. But he hadn’t been able to help it: the brain doesn’t rule in matters of the heart.

The green-haired guard was silent for a few seconds, clearly surprised. He never imagined that under the stars, on any day of so many when they had dinner together, his beloved traveler would ask him that. And although for Xiao being a couple was a mere label that in no way changed the affection they had for each other, he knew that it was important for humans. So of course he nodded, approaching and kissing his lips in response to that question.

Both of them melted into the kiss. Taking advantage of the grass beneath them to lie down a little, Aether positioned himself over him, his knees on either side of Xiao's right leg, almost seeming to be sitting astride him. His abdomen, flat due to a good metabolism, brushed against Xiao's soft and bulging belly, which trembled at the slightest movement. The blond's hands rested on the ground, while the other caressed his chin, gently raising it to kiss it. At first it was a subtle, almost timid kiss, but it soon escalated. Xiao's hands searched for Aether's thin waist, surrounding it to draw him closer a little, and their breathing soon became agitated, as if they were in a battle. Except it was just the opposite.

－A-ah...Aether..－Xiao gasped against his lips. He closed his eyes and held his breath as he felt one of Aether's hands move, moving down to his abdomen and squeezing one of the fat strips that adorned his waist.－Th-that...feels...－

The blond waited a few moments, kissing Xiao's lips tenderly. He spoke in a whisper, not wanting to upset him.－Relax...we're just going to play a little. You can stop me whenever you want...－

When Xiao nodded, giving the go-ahead and clinging to his neck now, Aether followed, first massaging and squeezing his abdomen gently. Then he slid lower, where he felt the yashka's crotch above his pants. Stopping kissing his lips to see his expression, all flushed and in a slight ecstasy, Aether began to touch and caress the area above the clothes.

－Mgh! A-aether...－

Despite his complaint, the yashka did not impede that intimate contact at all. He even gently opened his legs, bent, giving him more access. The blond could not help but notice how fat his thighs looked now, even hidden under the fabric. Neither of them took too long to decide that they wanted to move on to something more intimate. Touching the clothes was no longer enough, and so, Aether lowered his hand and slid it inside Xiao's pants, feeling the yashka's bulge. His face reddened at the feeling, and he looked at Xiao with some embarrassment.

－Aren't you wearing underwear?－I ask in a low voice, shy.

Xiao gasped, clenching his hands in the traveler's thin brown short-sleeved shirt as he felt his hand underneath. His mind drifted to his abs for a second, completely different from his own belly, that was chubby and soft. Sexy. However, he opened his eyes and blushed like a tomato at the question.

－That... is a human invention... I never felt the need for it...－He replied, his voice almost breaking from embarrassment. Was it wrong not to wear underwear? He never thought about that.

Aether sighed, lowering his head to the yashka's neck, and letting his hands still for a moment. This was very embarrassing.

－Gosh, I...all this time...I didn't know.－

Xiao snorted, looking away.－Is this wrong...?－he asked, his voice almost breaking.

Aether shook his head softly.－No, no. Just... it's very sexy.－The blond murmured, breathing on her neck for a few seconds. When he recovered himself, after imagining and remembering all the times they had seen each other when Xiao hadn't had underwear on, but only his pants, his hands went back to action.

Aether lowered himself slightly, and while one of his hands touched and squeezed Xiao's soft and fluffy stomach, his other hand lowered the seam of Xiao's pants a little, thus making out Xiao's member. A mass of almost perfect flesh, thin and not very large. Caressing the length, Aether observed the pink tip, which was already dripping.

Xiao moaned at the direct contact, using one of his arms to cover his face, while his other hand went to his own breast. With some shyness, the green-haired boy began to massage the area, gasping when his fingers brushed his nipple even through his clothes. Seeing this, Aether left his stomach and took his right hand, moving it away from his face.

－Don't cover yourself...I want to see you.－He asked, his cheeks and his entire face red and flushed. Although embarrassed, the opponent nodded shyly, and lowered his gaze to his own chest, stopping his hand. Seeing him, Aether smiled sideways, with some enthusiasm.－Should I pay attention there too?－

It was more of a rhetorical question, because without waiting for the answer, his free hand pushed up Xiao's tank top a little, until he uncovered his breasts, round and soft, almost like a woman's, and then bent down, giving first a small kiss on the nipple, and then starting to suck. Below, his hand continued to masturbate Xiao. The yashka moaned, ecstatic.

Not long after, the constant stimulation made the green-haired boy cum. He moaned softly, his hands clinging to Aether's neck, and he left his nipples for a moment, moving up to his face and kissing his forehead.

－Are you okay?－he asked in a murmur, removing his hand from around Xiao's member. He got off of him, kneeling on the grass, and used a rag from his backpack to wipe his hand. That was enough for today, he didn't want to overburden the yashka.

Xiao leaned on his arms with some difficulty, managing to sit up, and nodded weakly. He had never experienced such a sensation. It was like being on fire, and then... peace. His gaze fixed on the traveler, and on the bulge in his pants.

－That...－Xiao pointed, watching. Shy, he gulped.－Aren't we going to take care of that?－he asked quietly, while he took something to clean his crotch, and rose on his knees to pull up his pants.

Aether shook his head, smiling. His face looked almost feverish.－N-no, don't worry... It'll pass soon.－

A strange feeling ran through Xiao. Perhaps it was injustice, or desire. Or both. He wanted to taste Aether too, to feel his warmth, to touch him, and... it wasn't fair that he was the only one of the two to be left unsatisfied either. So he crawled over to him, his plump belly gently shaking at the movement, and crouched down on the traveler's thighs. When Aether tried to stop him, embarrassed, Xiao looked up. His expression was something no one could refuse.

－I want to do it... I want to touch you too.－The yashka muttered in a low voice.－Can't...?－

Gulping, Aether sat down on the ground, spreading his legs to give Xiao some room, and placed both of his hands behind him, leaning towards the tree. He nodded softly, giving him the thumbs up.

Xiao, satisfied, timidly opened the taller man's pants. He freed his member from his underwear. It was so hard it almost looked like it was going to explode. The tip, reddish and barely swollen, was dripping with pre-cum, and Xiao found himself touching it with his index finger, a drop remaining on his finger. Blushing, he tasted it, and then bent down, kneeling in front of Aether, his arms braced against the grass.

Xiao swallowed the blond's member in his mouth, first licking the tip, then kissing it, and then pushing it all the way in. His hands sought out the thighs of the traveler, his now boyfriend, in order to have more control, and he began to suck somewhat clumsily, using his tongue to stimulate the tip.

－Ah...Xiao...－Aether moaned. He moved his hand, moving to caress her hair and grip it without too much force, between soft moans of pleasure.

Excited by her reaction, Xiao continued at it, moving his head more eagerly, up and down. Every so often he took the member out of his mouth, to kiss and lick the outside.

－X-Xiao...I'm going to...ugh... I'm going to cum...－the blonde gasped. Throwing his head back, completely aroused, he had to look again as he felt the yashka move.

Xiao, now on top of him, had placed Aether's erect member between his two plump breasts and was using them to masturbate him. The sight was too much for him. Moaning louder, Aether finally came on the yashka's chest and face, his hand clinging to his hair as the semen made its way in.

－Hah...hah...where...－Gasping, Aether let himself fall back. Xiao moved away a little, still kneeling between his legs. It was obvious that the tension they had been building up for years had finally exploded today.－Where did you learn that?－

The blond murmured, sitting up a little more and caressing Yashka's cheek.

－I just...thought it would feel good and...I did it.－Xiao muttered, embarrassed.－I made a mistake?－

－Not at all.－Aether replied with a half smile. He caressed Xiao´s cheek with his thumb, looking at his stained face, and cleared his throat with some sadness.－But, it would be better to go down to the river and clean ourselves, don't you think?－

So, they both stripped off and went to the river, not far from there. Bathing together, under the stars, was definitely the best way to end that day.
