wlw #wangxian // wei ying doesn't understand why she's so upset to the point of crying after her favorite coworker texts her to announce she got the job she wanted, at another company. Wei ying should be happy for lan zhan, and she is, she really is
2
it's just that... she's used to seeing lan zhan every day, to timing their breaks together, to sharing snacks and the awful lukewarm coffee one of the secretaries makes. It's not that she doesn't like her other coworkers, but they're not /lan zhan/
3
lan zhan who sometimes brings an extra helmet so she can give wei ying rides home when they have to work overtime cause she worries about wei ying walking by herself at night even though wei ying lives close by,
4
lan zhan who makes sure wei ying's arms are wrapped tightly around her waits before she starts the motorcycle.

lan zhan whose hair is always perfect even after so long under the helmet, but who still lets wei ying finger comb the strands out off her face when she gets to work
5
lan zhan who's a professional but also extremely petty and makes wei ying double in laughter with her dry remarks.

You get the picture, it's /lan zhan/!

What's wei ying gonna do now that she's leaving her?
6
Well the answer, if you know wei ying at all, is pretty obvious: she'll get completely drunk.

And drunk!wy has great ideas! For example, she's gonna call lan zhan and tell her all of that, tell her she can't leave because wei ying needs her because work is ~boring~ without her
7
It's not 9pm yet when wei ying calls, cause she's a good friend, she wouldn't call past lan zhan's bed time!

And so she slurs her way through a rambling of feelings and memories and she only realizes she's crying when the neckline of her t-shirt starts getting wet
8
Lan zhan is quiet the whole time, wei ying knows this because she talks the whole time and doesn't let lan zhan say anything because if lan zhan talks it becomes real and if it's real, if wei ying is losing lan zhan for real, than she'll break, she'll shatter
9
There are only a few muffled sounds from lan zhan's end, and her breathing. She's there, she's listening, that's all wei ying needs.

She talks until she can't anymore because she's crying too hard

And then there's a knock on her door.
10
Wei ying stumbles her way to it and opens it after a couple of tries.

On the other side, with worried eyes and red ears, is lan zhan.

Wei ying doesn't care if this is a dream, she throws herself right into lan zhan's arms and buries her face on lan zhan's warm neck
11
"Hold me," she begs. Lan zhan holds her. Lan zhan is the best coworker in the world. The best person. "Hold me tighter."

And lan zhan does. She secures wei ying flush against her chest and for a hysterical moment we ying giggles when she realizes their boobs are touching
12
And then she notices this is happening because lan zhan has picked her up and is now carring wei yng back inside.

She's so strong. Wei ying can't believe lan zhan can just carry her like she weighs nothing!
13
But then lan zhan makes a move as to put her down and wei ying panics and locks her ankles behind lan zhan's back and her arms around lan zhan's neck.

"Don't let go!"

"I will not," lan zhan promises. Lan zhan never breaks a promise. Wei ying relaxes
14
So, with wei ying in her arms, lan zhan moves around the apartment, she makes wei ying drink two glasses of water then cleans her face and then takes a seat on wei ying ugly sofa
15
"Lan zhan," wei ying moans, her face half hidden on lan zhan's shoulder. "Why are you leaving me? Don't leave me. You can't."

"I am not leaving wei ying."

"You are!" wei yin protests. "You're leaving me. I won't see you again!"
16
"You will," lan zhan argues. She's so stubborn! "Wei ying, I am simply changing jobs"

Wei ying pouts. "But what if you find a new work bestie. You'll forget about me!"
17
"There are many jobs," lan zhan says. Wei ying can't see her face very well but she sounds amused. "But there's only one wei ying. I could never forget you."

"Promise?"

"Promise."

Wei ying's eyes close after that, she lets out a long sigh and that's it, she falls asleep.
18
In the morning, there is breakfast waiting for her when she stumbles out of bed, there's lan zhan looking as beautiful as ever in wei ying's tiny kitchen, and there's also a hesitant question as to why wei ying was so upset about lan zhan leaving
19
"I don't know lan zhan, i just love you, okay." Lan zhan freezes. Wei ying freezes. Neither of them was expecting this. "I... oh my god, lan zhan... i love you!"

If wei ying sounds surprised, it's because she is. She had no idea.

"Wei ying."

"Lan zhan i'm so-"

"I love you"
20
"What?"

"I have loved wei ying since the day we met."

"Lan zhan! You never said anything!"

"I thought wei ying was straight."
21
Oh

"Well, i also thought wei ying was straight," wei ying says.

Lan zhan looks very unimpressed.

Wei ying laughs, now that she can laugh again, now that she's not hollowed out.

"Hey, lan zhan. A new position just opened," she taps her heart. "Right her"
22
"It's a full time job, tho. You'll have to handle a lot."

Lan zhan approaches her and takes her hand.

"What's the position?"

Wei ying smiles.

"Girlfriend."

Lan zhan kisses her knuckles.

"I will email you my credentials."
23
And wouldn't you know, after spending the whole weekend tangled in bed together, wei ying open her email on monday only to find lan zhan did email her credentials, that dork. Wei ying loves her so much.
