âââ
Monkey king was running hastily down a cave system dodging and weaving ever rock and crystal desperately trying to find a shadow monkey.
He felt as if he would pass out from exhaustionâŚ.or maybe itâs stress? He couldnât really tell at this point and he quite frankly didnât care.
He stopped to look around the area he was in not instantly noticing any direction Macaque could have gone.
He swore that he saw him. It had to be him.
But maybe he just saw some other monkey earlier.
Yeah, as if there was another celestial monkey just chilling around here.
Either it was a hallucination or the most special person that was in his life was alive.
Heâs been running after this shadow damn near a hour now. And usually heâd never get tired this fast but he felt drained me
He felt as if he should give up at this point. It isnât like he hasnât though he saw Macaque beforeâŚ.
Itâs just that he seems so real. Almost too real.
He glanced to his left spotting a small pathway. He sighed deeply and made his way over and went through.
He walked for a couple minutes before entering a pretty nice open space.
The whole place was illuminated with gems and crystals sprouting out of the floor.
He walked around them talking one last look around and took a quick turn back around to make his way out back.
He froze when he heard a small tap on the floor.
He instantly turned back around and ran toward the noises direction.
He put his hand firmly on a decent sized crystal and leaned forward, freezing in shock.
There he was. Macaque. He was staring directly at him with a pained expression.
Wukong felt as if the wind was knocked out of him and shoved right back in his throat.
He slowly came from behind the crystal and took one single step.
Macaque tensed at the movement and took a big swallow and shuffled back a bit.
Wukong kept opening his mouth but he couldnât find words to say.
What are you supposed to say when you see your supposed to be dead best friend?
His breath was slightly uneven and he took one more step feeling his hand shake.
Macaque eyes glared at him as if he done something wrong.
âI know what youâre gonna say Wukong.â
Wukong froze hearing his low voice. He hasnât heard it in so long. Heâs really here.
Heâs only twenty feet away from him but it felt like thousands.
âHow longâŚâ was the only words Wukong could get out before his throat closed. It felt like someone was squeezing his throat and shoving sand into it.
âAwhileâŚâ Macaque said firmly crossing his arms close to his chest.
âHow long awhileâŚ.?â Wukong voice shook slightly.
âLonger then a month I guessâŚâ Wukong felt like heâd been stabbed in the gut.
âI know what youâre gonna say Wukong. How could I have done this?â Macaque looked away from him his bodily noticeably shaking, tail slightly twitching.
Macaque let out a scoff âStaying away and not telling you Iâm alive after all this time?â
Wukong couldnât help but just stare at him in awe. Even after all that even death couldnât take away how beautiful he looked. He looks so different but looked the same somehow.
âOnce I came back why did it I go back to you? To the mountain? Is that what you wanna ask?â Macaqueâs brows were furrowed as he stared him in his eyes.
Wukong placed a foot forward.
âWell, after all this time Iâve been dead how would you have even reacted!? Last time we spoke we almost killed each other! What did you expect me to do huh!?â Macaque shouted throwing his hands in the air teeth looking as sharp as ever.
âI donât even know why Iâm even trying to explain myself to you!? Youâve always been so selfish and the biggest idiot Iâve ever had the displeasure of meeting!!â Macaque cried out glaring at him as he took another two steps forward.
Macaque breathed heavily looking up at the ceiling of the cave.
âI know that maybe I shouldâve seen you sooner and tried to mend things with you again.â
Wukong mouth was extremely dry right now. He seriously needed water or something cause itâs painful.
âBut I thought youâd be better off without me.â Macaque laughed pitifully putting a hand to his chest clenching around the fabric.
âAnd maybe that was wrong. And I guess I can see that now but-â Macaque backed away from Wukong who was getting so close that he could almost touch him.
Wukong wanted to touch him so bad. He wanted to hold him so extremely bad at the moment. He hated seeing him like this.
Canât say he was any different either.
âOh my gods Wukong!!â Macaque couldnât back up anymore but just glare at him.
âStop being so silent!! Go on! Shout! Scream! Say something dammit!?â Macaqueâs eyes were welling up with tears begging to fall.
Wukong felt his eyes water as he lifted a hand and put it gently on Macaqueâs cheek.
Macaque mouth quivers and gasps slightly at the touch and tryâs everything in him to not lean into it.
Macaque eyes are wide in surprise and Wukong who had tears fall down from his face.
âYouâre as beautiful as the day I lost you.â Wukong whispered softly a sad smile spreading across his face.
Tears feel down Macaqueâs face as he mouth was slightly open in shock eyes still widen at the soft sweet words.
Macaque leaned into his hand as Wukong stroked his thumb lightly.
Wukong couldnât care less anymore and jumped at Macaque wrapping one arm across his shoulder burrowing his face into his shoulder and the other at his upper back.
Wukong hasnât felt so vulnerable on his life and he doesnât care.
Macaque finally wrapped his arms around Wukong shoving his face into his neck taking a shaky breath.
Macaque pulled back holding wukong face in his hand.
âI probably shouldâve came to you sooner.â He whispered.
âYeah. You should have you asshole.â Wukong glared with tears still falling and smile twice as wide.
Macaque rolled his eyes wiping the tears out of Wukongâs eyes.
âIâm sorry.â Macaque spoke quietly.
âIâm sorry too Macaque.â Wukong held Macaqueâs jaw pulling his face closer placing his forehead on his.
They both closed their eyes taking each others prescience in.
Macaque pulled slightly away daring into Wukongâs eyes with a new warmth in them.
âGod I missed you so much.â Macaque let out a choked out snicker.
âI mean who wouldnât?â Wukong teased slightly.
âAh. And somehow youâve made me hate you even more.â Macaque glared with no heat behind it.
âItâs a gift.â Wukong shrugged with a smug grin.
Macaque smirked shaking his head. âStill the comedian I see.â He stared fondly.
Wukong face hurt from crying and smiling so much.
They just stared at each other with nothing but love in their eyes. Macaque was the first to lean in before Wukong instantly got the message leaning into a kiss.
Wukong couldnât help but smile the moment he felt Macaque let out his own smile into the kiss.
It was weird. Not the kiss though- the kiss was amazing and extremely passionate. Tingly feelings and all. But it was weird to kiss him.
No wukong couldnât help when his hands trembled.
Macaque pressing a kiss on the corner of his mouth and back on his mouth held his hands tightly to keep him grounded.
They tilted their heads to deepen it feeling so free and happy. They havenât felt like this in a long time.
Macaque softly backed away smiling at him with nothing but love.
âI definitely missed those.â Wukong wiggled his eyebrows.
Macaque couldnât help but chuckle at that kissing Wukongâs cheek wrapping his tail gently around Wukongâs embracing him again.
Wukong sighed contently resting his body into Macaqueâs as Macaque did to him.
âHope you know Iâm never letting you go again.â Wukong deadpanned.
âWouldnât have it any other way peaches.â Macaque smiled into his neck.
Wukong smiled at the old nickname tightening his embrace.
âPerfect.â He smiled closing his eyes.
They stay there in each others embrace feeling as if they unlocked the keys to the entire universe.
Neither of them wished this would every end.
But if it did itâd be ok. They would have each other and thatâs all they need.
