POV Zhan

Oh man, why can't I ever deny Yanli and Cheng a wish? I was going to wait until tomorrow and then tell Yibo that I'm the author he admires so much.

But no, a please-please from Yanli and I go into the house to get Yibo's surprise. I wonder how he's going to react right away. I mean, I hope he's not mad because I didn't tell him right away when he told me he was a fan of mine. Not that he thinks I was trying to trick him or anything.

With the gift for Yibo, and my first draft of my new book, which I gave to Yibo last Sunday, I'm on my way out. Oh god I'm so nervous. How I wish I could have done this alone with him. But well, things turned out differently now.

I come back to the others and the first thing Yibo asks me is, "What are you doing with my book? You don't want to give it to anyone else, do you?"

"No my cutie. I just want to give you something that belongs to it." I replied.

"And what?" I hand him the cover of my book, Yibo reads through it and laughs. "haha, I knew it was by the author Wei Ying. And it's the new book right? Forbidden Love. Where did you get this? Did the author give it to you? Do you know him personally? Can I meet him too?"

"Yibo, Yiboooo, take it easy. Take a deep breath my cutie."

"Phew, Okay." Says Yibo and I hand him my gift. He takes it on his lap and rips the tedious wrapping paper and pulls out the first book. "Oh my god, this is the book. Volume 5 in the special book cover." He almost whispered, taking it in his hand very carefully, as if it were fragile.

"Yibo, there's more in there." I say. Yibo looks into the package again and gets wide-eyed as he pulls out the other books.

"Volume 6, volume 7, volume 8, volume 9, and volume 10? And all in the special book cover? Where did you get those?" He asked me like a detective.

"Um, well I. Well, just look in volume 10 on the first page."

Yibo opens the book, fantasy world volume 10 and gets wide eyes. "As your boyfriend, I'm happy you love me. As your favorite author, I'm happy you're my fan. Your Zhan aka Wei Ying." It says.

"I hope you're not mad that I just told you now." I said softly.

Yibo looked at me with wide eyes, put the book on the table with the other books and I thought, now he's going to smack me. Instead, he jumps into my arms with tears in his eyes. And because I was crouching next to him while talking to him, we both landed on the ground.

"Ah this is just amazing. You can't imagine how excited I am right now. This is the best day of my entire life. I love you Hubby. Now more than ever you'll never get rid of me."

"I don't want to get rid of you either, my cutie. I love you, very much."

Hai Kuan asked what was happening and wanted to take the volume 10 to see what it said that made Yibo so happy. Yibo must have caught it out of the corner of his eye and yelled at his brother, "What do you think you're doing, brother? These are my books, mine alone. And if you want to look at them, you'll have to ask me. But until I read them, you can't even touch them okay?"

"Ey Yibo, I just wanted to see what's inside." Replied his brother.

"Then ask me and I'll show you. But you can't touch the books."

"Just because I touch them, they don't lose value okay? And besides, it doesn't make the writing dissolve either. So let me take a look."

"Absolutely not. Or go wash your hands thoroughly. And then you may look. But just look and nothing else, okay?"

"Do you now understand what I mean Zhan?" Hai Kuan asked me.

I honestly had to laugh and so did Cheng and Yanli.

Cheng then said to Hai Kuan, "Zhan is not only a car mechanic who is good at fixing houses, but also the author of Fantasy World, Wei Ying."

"What really now? Then now I understand why my little brother won't even let his boyfriend get up and just lie on top of him happily while we sit here and watch the two of them." Replied Hai Kuan.

"Hey, don't think anything wrong. My Hubby is not like that." Shouted Yibo, who was actually still lying on top of me and grinning at me.

And then Yibo ran full speed and asked me quite a few questions. Among them: "When exactly did you start writing? Why did you change your alias again after writing Fantasyland? Did you really paint the picture yourself for the special covers? Did you know from the beginning that you wanted to write 10 volumes? How did you come up with that name? Are you planning to write such a big series again? When will the new book be on sale?" And many more questions.

"Yibo my cutie, I don't even know where to start with all these questions. I'll try to answer a few. Well, I've been writing practically all my life. I had books in front of me all the time because of my grandma. I changed my alias after it almost came out at the time who wrote Fantasieland. I came up with that name because that was my grandma's great-grandpa's name and she liked it. Fantasiewelt has always been big and comes from a time when I was young and created this fantasy world together with my grandma. Yes I painted the picture myself. And everything else we clarify little by little. And baby? When are you going to let me get up, anyway?"

"Let you stand up? Mhhh, never again. You're my prisoner now and you can't run away."

"Why would I run away?"

"I don't know. Maybe because you'll eventually get annoyed with me?"

"No, definitely not my cutie. I love you just the way you are and I hope you'll always stay that way. So are you going to let me get up now?"

"No. I want to cuddle you like this for a few more minutes. Because you know, today apparently all the holidays fall on one day. I have a great handsome, caring, loving and charming boyfriend who also happens to be my very favorite writer. I don't need to play the lottery anymore, I've already hit the jackpot."

"You're just too cute Yibo." I replied with a grin. I then just stayed like that half on the stones and half on the grass until my cute boyfriend finally let me get up. While Yanli, Cheng and Hai Kuan are laughing. But, let them laugh. I'm way too happy right now to be angry about anything.

POV Yibo

In my whole life, I have never been as happy as I am today. I can't even describe what that feeling is. I could scream with happiness. My Zhan is my favorite author, I can't believe it. But now I realize some things. He's been giving me little hints all along. Like on our date when he told me as my boyfriend he wants to make me happy, so he would have to be there for a possible meeting with the author.

I didn't let Zhan get up until half an hour later. I just wanted to lie there with him. I would have thrown him over again, after all, as much as I was happy.

He finally showed me the mess room, which is his writing room. It's all very neat and tidy. On one shelf there are even several books, where his grandmother has illustrated the pictures at that time. No wonder he protects this room so much. But from today on he always wants to leave the room open for me. And he has promised me that I will always be the first to read what he writes.

And Zhan doesn't need to be afraid that I will reveal his secret somewhere. Let them keep guessing in the fan boards. They won't find out anything from me. Because just the thought of them finding out how handsome and great my Hubby is, and then they might seek him out and try to hit on him, drives me crazy.

I want my Zhan, my Wei Ying, all to myself. And whoever dares to touch him will get a beating. My Hubby! Mine alone!!!

After I calmed down, we all sat at the table. Zhan put some meat on the grill and I started reading volume 6 of Fantasy World.

My brother said in between: "We don't need to count on Yibo today, he's in his own world now." Well, I put the book aside. But then it lay there so lonely on the table and always called, read me, read me.

When Zhan sat down next to me for a moment, he took the book from the table and gave it to me: "Read if you want. The main thing is you don't completely blank out Okay?"

"Okay Hubby. Thank you. Love you." I replied happily and gratefully and quickly flipped to the page where I was last.

And as promised, I didn't completely zone out, but talked to Yanli and Cheng as well. Whereas, Cheng and my brother were apparently often in their own world themselves. The two of them are as much in love as Zhan and I are. I think it must have been very hard for both of them, not being able to see or talk to each other, not knowing if the other was still waiting or not.

Luckily, it's much easier with Zhan and me. Because I couldn't bear another day without him. I just never want to be separated from him. Yes, well, that's what all lovers say. But I am dead serious about it. And if someone tries to come between us, then I'll crush that person!

Although I don't think Zhan will ever get involved with anyone else. I know he loves me very much and is happy with me. Even if we don't sleep with each other yet. He loves me so much anyway. And I think that does prove that our relationship is very good.

We all sat in our beautiful garden until late in the evening and our guests admired very much what I have created from the garden. I was very proud to have received so much praise. 

Later when it got too cold we went into the house, shortly after Yanli went home. She doesn't have long until the birth of her child and said that pregnancy is just exhausting now. I believe her gladly because she has a crazy big belly.

My brother and Cheng left together around 1 am. I think that the two of them will spend that night together. Well, they've waited long enough for that. I have never seen my brother as happy as he was tonight and it was obvious how much he loves Cheng.

Zhan and I went to bed after they left. I lay with my head on his chest and read another chapter of Fantasy World Volume 6. Meanwhile, Zhan was cuddling my head until I finished the chapter. Then I put the book on my desk, snuggled up to Zhan, we kissed and I whispered in his ear, "I love you Hubby and I thank you, for the best day of my life. I couldn't be happier."

"So you're not mad because I didn't tell you before?"

"No. In fact, I can understand that. I would have even understood if you had told me much later. So it's all good Hubby. And ZhanZhan?"

"Yes?"

"I'm damn proud to be with my favorite author. Even if I can't tell anyone and don't want to, I'm incredibly proud."

"Well, you can tell your best friend and his partner."

"Well, we can tell them together. We could invite them over sometime or?"

"Of course we can. Whenever you want my cutie." Replied Zhan and kissed my forehead.

I had asked him about his ex a few days ago. I wanted to know a little more about his relationship with him. But Zhan caressed my cheek and said, "Yibo my cutie. That is in the past and should stay there. What matters is not what was then, but only what is now. And today you are my boyfriend. My cutie with those cuddly cheeks that I love more than I've ever loved anyone else. So let's let the past be the past and let's just enjoy the here and now."

I then asked him anyway if it ended badly between him and his ex. Zhan replied, "No, we were just very different. Our love was never strong enough and at some point, we just felt like friends in a relationship and parted on good terms. He is now happily married. And I found the love of my life."

I was glad to hear that they broke up on good terms and not like my brother and his ex. And I loved hearing Zhan say that I am his love of his life. Because he too, is my very big love. And after today, the very biggest love ever.
