It doesn't take a lot to break somebody's heart
Confused a Lesson for a SoulmateNotes: These are four different stories. The last one is fem!Luhan (also originally a blog post by me somewhere.)
This is for Andi, a newly converted KaiLu shipper, I'll bleed ink if the words I write will make you smile.
"Please, Lu Han. Please just tell me the truth."
"I—I don't want to see you get hurt."
"Then close your eyes," Jongin says, because it's not like Lu Han is going to hear his heart breaking either.

Lu Han feels like even his own skin has become a foreign terrain. Where there used to be spots in which love landed like soft rain, the land is now barren, bereft of kisses that are now long gone. Where he used to orbit around Jongin, his sun, the love of his life, his body is now a planet adrift in an unknown celestial sky. Lu Han is stranger to his own body when it lays on the bed, now only one.

"It's not entirely your fault, Sehun," Jongin says bitterly.
"What do you mean?"
"Lu Han wouldn't have let you steal him from me if he didn't want you to."

She hastily took off her shoe and flung it at Jongin. She let out a victorious “Ha!” when it smacked the back of his head. Lu Han wanted him to hurt so badly she could hit him with anything now. But in truth, any physical offense would harm him only by a whisker, incomparable to the ache she felt inside.
Somehow, she knew she had hurt him with the hit, if only for a little, but it shall heal. By tomorrow, or the next day perhaps, the pain will subside. But the chasm he created in her broken heart, could it be filled by any other?
He stopped walking and resolved to turn around to face her, if only for the space of a heartbeat. But he resisted the urge and continued on his way.
