Welcome Home (China x Reader)

You rush out of the high school, just graduating. “God, it feels so good to be free!” You shout to no one in particular.

You sighed when you got home. Your mother told you that there was a new neighbor moving in next door. You really didn’t like the fact  that someone was moving in. It was really hard for you to make new friends, new neighbors made it all the more difficult.

You started this “I don’t want any friends” stage when your childhood friend, Yao, moved to china at the beginning of middle school. so it’s been six years since you last seen him. You guys have grown a lot since then as well, so you looked a lot different than you did back then, and he probably did as well.

You heard a knock on the door, since your mom wasn’t home, you decided to answer it yourself.

“May I help you?” You asked, once the door was opened. On the other side of the door was a young man with dark brown hair that could be mistaken for black, and warm goldish-brown eyes. ‘Like Yao...’ You thought.

“Erm… I just wanted to say hi to my next door neighbor, aru.” He said, he had a thick chinese accent in his voice.

“Ah, makes sense.” you agreed. “My name is _____ ______.” You offered a hand to shake.

The man looked at you as if thinking of something or remembering something. “Y-Yeah, My name is Yao Wang, aru.” He said while gently shaking your hand.

The name made memories go wild in your brain, making you go into a nostalgic daze. After what must’ve been a few moments You were brought back the man in front of you.

“____!” Yao snapped his fingers in your face. Making you snap out of your thoughts.

“A-Ah sorry!” You apologized quickly. “You just… reminded me of someone that I knew several years back.” You failed to hear him say, “You do too.”

“If thats all then-”

“Wait!” He quickly called.

You looked back to see Yao suddenly nervous.

He pulled out a picture, a picture thats been ripped in the middle. He showed it to you. It was you when you were younger. “I need to confirm my suspicions, aru.”

You smiled, your (e/c) eyes shine with hope. “One moment.” You state simply before rushing up to your room grabbing the ripped photo of Yao’s younger self, and quickly run back down.

“Is this what your looking for?” You ask, holding up your picture. Yao tentatively took the picture of the young bow and tried to fit the two photos together.

The fit perfectly.

You felt tears brim the corners of your eyes.”Yao!” You exclaim happily as you hug him tightly.

Yao was shocked to say the least but he eagerly returned the hug. “I missed you.” He murmured.

You giggled and look at him in the eyes and greet childishly; “Welcome home, Yao~!”
