The Years I Spent Sleeping with My Childhood Friend

Lu Yu x Shi Lian: a brotherly bond gone off the rails

Everyone knows Lu Yu and Shi Lian are close enough to share a pair of pants. Even Lu Yu himself thinks so:

"I'm your own big brother."

"Call me Big Brother and I'll help you with your homework."

But even Lu, the big shot, never expected to be eating his words so soon. How could keeping his childhood friend, who trembled with fear every night, company in bed turn him gay??

"How can he be so cute..."

"I want to kiss him..."

"He's so handsome..."

"I... I think I like... men."

Before Shi Lian could even process what was happening, he heard the person above him say, "If... if you can't accept this, I'll move into the dorms tomorrow... No, I'll leave tonight..."

Lu Yu felt like his heart was about to stop.

Shi Lian couldn't describe how he felt. It was as if fireworks had gone off in his chest, leaving his whole body tingling. He wrapped his arms around Lu Yu.

"You idiot," Shi Lian said with a soft laugh, his eyes rimmed in red.

"I've been waiting for you for five years."
