Fics like The Gifts We Give

He doesn’t really start to believe that that tenderness is anything but referred through Zetian though, until both boys found themselves similarly hovering over her sickbed, watching fluids and painkillers and antibiotics drip into her still form in turns. Yizhi made room for him, when he entered, and when Shimin stood there, shuffling his feet and looking like a kid in front of a plate of cookies, he gave him direction. Showed him how to gently rearrange her to prevent bed sores, tilting her head and offered him a comb to fix her hair with. Shimin’s eyes widen and lock onto Yizhi’s face, looking for a catch, for a trick, to be mocked. He finds none of it. No, Yizhi is smiling with so much radiance that Shimin wonders if he accidentally activated his flame meridians he feels so hot. His face and his chest are burning as he reaches for the comb, as his fingers brush against Yizhi’s. Together, they tend to Zetian as she rests, and turn to resting themselves.
