"Excuse Me, do you speak English?" You asked the Small Chinese store owner "No, no speak English" he managed to say, you let out a sigh and Bowed "Xie Xie" and walked out only for the store owner to yell out to you, behind him he dragged a Tall Handsome Man, you didn't see him in the shop, so you walked over to them Both, the man exchanging words in Chinese with the tall handsome man. You looked with curious eyes as the store owner spoke, the tall handsome fellow was dressed in fashionable clothes, you were caught off guard as he began to speak to the store owner, his deep silky voice was soothing and calming your nerves, you were lost, separated from your Boyfriend and Your Best Friend along with her Boyfriend, in a different country, just great. Guangzhou was big and you had no idea where to go "Hello" he said softly, you looked up to him shyly "Hello" you replied. He gave you a smile "The store owner tells me that you were looking for someone who spoke English? I was startled when he grabbed me just outside the store" he said letting out a chuckle afterwards. Your face came to a flush "Oh, I'm sorry he startled you" you said in an embarrassed tone, but before you could continue he spoke "It's okay, no need to say sorry, it's a good thing he found me, most Chinese don't speak English" he said adding a low laugh "What do you need help with?" He added, giving you a warm smile. "Oh, I'm lost. I got separated from my Group and my Chinese is very limited" You said shyly "Where are you staying?" He asked. You quickly went inside your backpack to take out the paper of the place you were staying at and handed it to him carefully "Oh! I'm staying here too! I can take you if you'd like?" He said happily "If it wouldn't be too much of a hassle please?" You asked. "Please, it's totally fine! I just came here to get a few things, mind coming along, I'm just missing one more thing, unless you'd like to wait for me somewhere?" He asked "No, no, it's fine! I'd love to tag along and get to know this Marketplace better!" You reassured, his lips forming into a smile "Okay! Let's go!" You looked over to the store owner who looked at you both funny since he didn't understand a single word "Xie Xie!" You said to him and bowed, The tall fellow Bowed and said Goodbye.

"Thank you very much, uhm" you said as you looked up at him "I have a lot of names really, but you can call me Kris and you are?" He asked with a smile "I'm _____, Nice to meet you Kris" you said shyly adding a soft giggle. "What Brings you to China?" He asked as you both walked along down the street "I thought it'd be nice to learn about the Culture here and visit the Beautiful places here" you said as you looked around you. "That's pretty daring, being here without knowing Chinese and all" he said with a laughing causing you to blush "It's okay, if I came here alone I would have wandered all over the place, I wouldn't care that I was lost, but since I'm a group they might worry" you replied softly. "That's interesting, but we wouldn't have met" he added with a smile, causing your face to blush deeper "Y-yeah, true" you managed to reply "Here we are!" He said excitedly and opened the door to lead you in a Medicine Shop, he took out a prescription from his pocket and handed it to the woman over the counter, she gave him a smile and went into the store room, coming with two small boxes in her hands and placed them on the counter, where they began to speak Chinese to each other. You looked around awkwardly not knowing what to do as they spoke, something caught your attention outside the shop, a small stand was right in front, it wasn't there when you entered, you looked over to him, it looked like she was explaining on how to use the medication, so you walked out to take a look.

The small stand had these beautiful handmade necklaces with small crystals for decoration, there was a Dragon that caught your attention, the small lady saw that you had interest in it and picked it up to hand it to you for a closer look. You politely grabbed it gently, examining it as the small crystals on it glistened from the sunlight, a smile spread on your face as you looked at it "Do you like it?" Asked Kris catching you off guard, you were into the necklace so much you didn't notice him come out of the shop "It's very pretty" you said as your eyes were still on it. He then asked the small lady something in Chinese, she replied with a smile and reached over for another necklace exactly the same, but it's crystals were a different color and handed it over to Kris. "She say's these two Dragons are meant to be together and never be seperated" he said softly, you looked up at him "Really? That's interesting! What happens when they are seperated?" You asked looking at the small lady, he then asked in Chinese. She replied with a sad look in her eyes "She says that the dragons will lose their shine" he explained and took out his wallet, handing her money with both hands politely, she nodded and refused telling Kris something in Chinese, but Kris kept trying on insisting giving her the money "You don't have to buy it for me, you're already taking me back to the Hotel, so I owe you" you said shyly "It's okay, you seem like you really like it, plus it would look beautiful on you" he replied with a smile, your face coming to a flush once again. The lady kept refusing and saying that it was a gift for you both, Kris finally managed to convince her to pay for at least one in the end. "Here let me put it on you" Kris said as he took the necklace from your hand, you turned around, holding up your hair to get it out of the way, his hands reaching around your neck, placing the necklace in place and hooking it together "There, all done" he said with a satisfied tone, you let your hair fall on your back, taking the dragon charm in your hand, admiring it. He handed you the other necklace "Here, you keep this one, give it to a friend or your Special someone " he added "What? No, you paid for it, it's only fair that you get to keep it" you replied. "You sure? What if it really loses it shine?" He asked with an eyebrow raised "We'll see if that's true!" You replied happily as you stood on your toes, reaching over his neck to put it on for him, when you were done, the Dragons sparkled more than before, the lady gave them a satisfied smile, you both Thanked her and walked back to the Hotel.

Once you arrived you let out a sigh of relief "Thank you so-so-so much!" You said happily, he let out a laugh "No problem" and lead you to the elevator, you were wondering if your friends made it back "Which floor are you in?" He asked "Oh, I'm on the Eleventh Floor" you replied "I'm on the twelfth" he added with a low chuckle, but before the doors closed someone yelled out to keep it open, Kris immediately shot out his hand to keep the doors from closing "Xie Xie" said the familiar voice who dashed inside "Leon?" You asked and he looked up "_____? Are you barely getting back?" He asked "Uh, yeah, weren't you with Steph and Alex?" You asked your best friends Boyfriend. "Uh, was. We got separated and I was left on my own, it was a bit difficult getting back" he said in a confused tone "So we all got separated?" You asked raising an eyebrow "I guess so" he replied, Kris was quiet for the whole time you spoke, then your floor came up "This is my Floor, Thank you so much again! Please let me treat you to something! Meet me in the Lobby in an hour!" You said as you stepped out giving him a Bow "Sure, no problem. See you in a bit" he said with the smile returning the bow as the doors closed. "I'll go check if Steph is in our room" said Leon as he walked over to a few doors down from your room, you took out your card and slid it into the slot, opening the door, hearing noises from inside, you quickly opened it and stepped in, you didn't bother closing the door once you understood the noises, there was your Boyfriend and Your Best Friend, on the bed you and your Boyfriend shared for your trip, your eyes started to get watery as you clenched your first "Hey ____ Steph hasn-" said Leon as he let himself in, causing the two to panic at getting caught, you ran out with Tears running down your cheeks, Alex yelling after you, but you just kept running down the hallway and pressing the elevator button eagerly, the doors opened to reveal Kris inside, you looked at him with teary eyes,Alex caught up to the Elevator, standing by the doors so they won't close, he was bleeding and was badly beat up, Kris looked at him with Fiery eyes "I-I can explain, please, she came onto me and-" he tried to explain, you turned around trying to ignore him "I don't need to hear it" you managed to say with a Broken Voice. "She means nothing to me, I swear" he pleaded "I SAID I DON'T NEED TO HEAR IT!!" you yelled out as more tears ran down your cheeks, he grabbed you harshly to turn around "Let's go talk about it" he said as he pulled on your wrist roughly, you protested "Let go of Me!!" You yelped, trying to pry your wrist away from his grasp.

"Let go of _____" said Kris in a serious tone, Alex turned around glaring up at Kris "Who the Hell are you?!" He asked Kris "That's not important, let go of _____" he replied to Alex "Then why the should I listen to you" he said to Kris as he tugged on your wrist, Kris shot out his hand taking your wrist in his hand, placing you behind him to keep him away from you "What the man!" He said as he walked over to Kris, Kris then stopped him by pushing him down to the floor, Alex immediately getting up on his feet angrily, he swung his fist towards Kris, but he dodged it and swung his fist, hitting Alex in his face, he fell back once more to the ground "Fine! Go with him!! I've been sleeping with Steph for a long time anyways" he said with a disgusting smirk making Kris extremely angry, he walked over to him kneeling down to throw punches on his face repeatedly, you walked over to Kris trying to pull him off of Alex "Kris!! He's not worth it!!" You pleaded as you kept tugging on his shirt to get him off. His arm reached up to punch him in the face again, but you shot out your arms, holding it tightly against you "Please, stop" you pleaded softly as tears kept running down your cheeks, he looked up at you with pained eyes, then looked down at the disfigured Alex, giving up he got up and took your wrist gently, taking you inside the elevator once more, the doors closing behind you both, he grabbed you gently to press you against his chest, you let out quiet sobs, as your tears soaked his shirt. He took you to a place where he liked to be alone when he was younger, a place that looked over the city, it was already getting dark, it didn't take long to get there, he lead you over to a Bench, sitting you down next to him "I'm sorry, you only just met me today and I have caused all of this" you said softly, your eyes were swollen and no longer produced tears. "Hey, hey. Don't worry about it okay?" He replied warmly "But-" you said before he cut you off by placing a finger on your lips "I said it's fine okay? Here, you have makeup running down your cheeks" he said as he reached into his backpack to take out moist towels, taking one out of the package, he placed his hand under your chin to lift it up, you looked at him nervously as he was just inches from your face.

He began to wipe off the makeup that was on your cheeks gently "How is your hand?" You asked as he continued to remove the makeup off your cheeks "It's fine" he replied "Let me see it" you added as you took his hand off your cheek, to examine it. It was bruised and had a few small cuts due to it being swollen, he took back his hand and contined on what he was doing "See, perfectly fine" he added as he concentrated on removing the last of the makeup. "You were bleeding " you said softly "So?" He replied "Let me clean your hand" you added, you slid off your backpack taking out a small first aid. You took out a small packet with soaked rubbing alcohol towels and took his hand, placing it on your lap as you took out a little towel, you took his hand again, rubbing the alcohol towel on his knuckles gently, he winced at first but just dealt with it. "I'm sorry" you said softly, he looked down at you "I said it was fine" he replied "You did a lot for me today..." you added softly, taking out bandages from the kit, wrapping it gently around his knuckles. "I wasn't going to let you go back with that jerk. Something happened though, when I went back to my room, this feeling of sadness came upon me, I felt like you needed me" he said softly, you looked up at him with curious eyes. "I know we haven't known each other for long, but there's just something about you" he said locking his eyes with yours "Do you believe in Fate?" He added causing your cheeks to flush up. "F-Fate?" You asked, thinking about his question "I do actually" you finally said, you looked down to finish wrapping his knuckles with bandages. He placed his hand under your chin, making you look up at him, your face flushing redder "It's getting Dark" you said trying to avoid him, it was too soon, but for some reason you're longing his attention. He leaned down pressing his lips against yours gently, you didn't protest, instead you returned it. Something caught your eye on his chest, you broke the kiss to see closely, the Dragon on his chest was shining brightly. "Hey, look at your necklace" said Kris as he reached over to grab your Dragon pendant, you looked down to see that it was also shining brightly "Whoa, yours too!" You said in excitement, he looked down to see the same thing.

"Weird, do these like, have batteries or something?" He asked curiously "No, they would have been noticeable" you replied. He shrugged it off "We should go back, it's getting dark" he said softly "I want to stay here, Forever. Besides, I don't want to go back there" you said as you looked over to the sunset "You can stay with me..." he added softly "What? But-" he cut you off "It's okay, We won't be alone if that's what you're worried about" he teased. "No, it's okay" you said "C'mon, let's go" he said as he took your hand in his "We can even go ask the Lady about why are these shining!" He added excitedly which caused you to smile as you gladly followed. Once you guys made it to the place, the small stand was gone, Kris went inside the Medicine Shop to ask how long ago did the Lady leave, he came out with a confused look on his face "Weird, she said there was never a stand here with the small lady" he said in a confused tone "But, we saw her! It's where we got these!" You said grabbing your Dragon pendant that was still glowing lightly. "I dunno, let's just go back okay?" He said as he took your hand, entwining his fingers with yours. After walking for a bit you abruptly stopped in your tracks, along with him "The Shop, it's... gone..." you said looking around "everything else is the same, but the shop, it's... gone." You managed to say, looking at him with wide eyes "Holy crap, you're right" he added. "Ask about the Shop Kris!" You pleaded frantically, trying to confirm your sanity, he took you along, still holding your hand tightly in his. He asked some stand merchants who were getting ready to pack up, helping the last few of their customers, They looked at both of you funny, but then they would point at your necklaces, not knowing what they were talking about you brushed it off. Kris took you over to a Bench nearby "Each of them, they all said there was never a store there" he said softly, you looked at him with wide eyes "You're lying right? Please tell me you are" you asked "I wish... But I swear it was here..." he said in a confused tone "Then they kept talking about our necklaces... Something about a Folk Tale about these Dragons" he added "Folk Tale?" You repeated. "Yeah, weird. Right?" He said as he stood up "Let's go back to the Hotel" he said offering his hand to you, you took it getting up and walked alongside him to the Hotel.

Once you guys arrived you saw Alex and your so called Best Friend, walking out of the elevator in the distance, they were holding hands and walking happily as if nothing happened earlier, you gripped Kris's hand tighter, he looked down at you and followed your gaze. Once he saw them, he clenched his free hand and pulled you closer to him gently. When you all walked past each other, Kris and Alex were exchanging glares, while Steph looked you both with shocked wide eyes. You kept your eyes concentrated on the floor, not wanting to look at the two, after that was over you both got into the elevator "I don't have any clothes" you said softly trying to change the mood. "We'll go out tomorrow to go buy some Okay?" He said softly, the elevator coming to a stop at his floor, you both walked out, he lead you to his door, he knocked in a rhythm on the door. "Secret Password!~" you heard on the other side of the door "Yah! You know it's me Yixing" replied Kris, the door opening to reveal a Handsome Dimpled Man, you bowed shyly, he bowed back with a smile, moving over while holding the door open to let you both in, Kris lead you inside. You walked in shyly next to him "Yixing, you're going to share your bed with me, alright?" Kris asked as he took off his shoes "Uh, you aren't sleeping to-" managed to say Yixing before Kris threw a pillow at him "It's not like that" reassured Kris. "______, This is Yixing one of my Group Members, Yixing this is ______" said Kris, introducing you to each other "Nice to meet you Yixing" you said with a shy smile as you bowed "Nice to meet you too _____" he said with a smile that revealed his dimple and returned the bow "Duizhang, give her one of your shirts, I'll give her one of my spare pajama bottoms" said Yixing as he took your hand leading you towards the bathroom "You should clean up and relax, it looks like you had a rough Day" he said politely.

Kris handed you one of his shirts and Yixing quickly ran off to get His spare pajama bottoms, handing them to you politely "Thank You" you said, Yixing pushed you politely inside and closed the door. "See Duizhang! My English improved thanks to you!" Yixing squeaked excitedly, your lips forming into a smile as you heard his excitement behind the door. You the water, letting it warm up as you got undressed, after a while of staring blankly at the running water you climbed into the shower, letting the water soak your skin. When you were done you climed out grabbing a towel, to dry yourself, getting into Kris's oversized shirt and Yixing's Pajama Bottoms. You opened to door walking out embarrassed on how the clothes fit you, Yixing looked over at you with saddened eyes "You should rest now" he said softly, you nodded and walked over to the unoccupied bed, Kris got up and walked over to the Bathroom "I'll be right out" he said and walked in. Yixing who was now comfy in his bed looked over at you "Goodnight ____, please rest well~" he said with a smile "Thank you, you too, sorry for having Kris sleep with you" you replied, he let out a chuckle "It's okay, it's not the first time that we share a bed" he added with a chuckle "Rest, now okay?" He said softly, letting out a yawn "Okay, Thanks" you replied as you layed on the bed, putting the blankets over you, curling up underneath. Yixing was already fast asleep, you turned around the other side, not being able to sleep remembering how hectic today was. You fought back your tears, but it was no use, they ran down your face, soaking your pillow. Just then you felt arms wrap around you from behind, you turned around to find Kris, he looked down at you, but instead of pushing him away you curled into his bare chest, letting out low sobs, he held you close, he was giving you the comfort you desperately needed. After a while of crying you ended falling asleep in his arms, he soon followed after, while you both were sleeping the Two Dragon's remained shining ever so brightly. They never lost their shine, you both remained together, happily, along with the Dragons.
