Xichen was more than ready for his evening appointment, his back hurting like hell. Was it just getting older? Adult life kept giving so much backpain to him. No wonder, considering he'd used to get pains like this even when he was still in high school. At least this way he'd been a good guinea pig for his ex's magic hands.

"Hi, Zhuzhu," Xichen called, after getting inside and locking the door behind him. He quickly got rid of his jacket and shoes. His t-shirt had remained put on only because he wanted Zhuzhu to take it off him. "It huuuurts."

Xichen felt comfortable being so whiny around his ex. It's not like Zhuzhu hadn't experienced it before. He could just... be the most free version of himself in his presence, bratty and whiny all he wanted.
