Who Ever Heard of a Top Alpha Kissing Someone While Crying?

[ABO, two male leads, an Alpha-Beta romance, an unintentionally seductive bottom, both virgins, intense romantic tension, childhood friends, a sharp-tongued, possessive jealous type, contrasting sides] [On the surface, a laid-back, gentle Beta bottom, but secretly full of dramatic inner monologues & a rude, arrogant Alpha top who turns into a clingy crybaby calling him “wife” after falling ill] His aloof childhood friend Shen Ci comes down with a strange illness. He suddenly starts acting crazy, his eyes red as he calls Qiao Yan his wife, hugging and kissing him. If Qiao Yan refuses, Shen Ci starts crying. “This R virus has symptoms somewhat similar to an Alpha’s rut. The patient becomes extremely dependent on their partner and emotionally sensitive and vulnerable, but their everyday communication remains normal.” After hearing the doctor say this, Qiao Yan felt like he might as well die on the spot. I’m not his partner, so is it really okay for him to keep calling me “wife”? To other people, Qiao Yan is mild-mannered and seems impossible to anger, like an emotionally stable capybara. But to Shen Ci, Qiao Yan is spoiled and quick to bristle. No matter how Shen Ci tries to coax him, he always gets a glare in return. When they’re together, Qiao Yan is just too adorable. When Shen Ci is sick, he seems to know nothing except to chase after Qiao Yan and call him “wife.” But what about after he recovers? Will he still act this way? Will he still only have eyes for him? “I will.” Shen Ci’s eyes crinkled with a smile as he wrapped Qiao Yan almost entirely in his arms. “You don’t have to do anything. I like you just the way you are, even if you’re just standing there.” [A pair of silly childhood sweethearts, no angst, no angst] [There is a secondary couple, but they have relatively little page time]
