~ The date ~

~ Manipulated by you ~

Note: English, Chinese, Korean

 

Seolhyun: I can't do this anymore. [she sank in her seat and groaned]

Lauren stepped out of the bathroom and looked at her while fixing her hair with a final touch. 

Lauren: Did you notice that you give up on everything easily? 

Seolhyun eyed Lauren feeling down. 

Lauren: [sighed and sat on her bed looking at Seolhyun] How many times do I have to encourage you. Look Seolhyun, there's no need to feel desperate. You only have 3 days till exam. Just study and get over it!

Seolhyun: easier said than done! [she blurted while glaring at her then sighed and looked at the ground] I need a break.

Lauren: Then have a break, have a kitkat :P [she joked and sticked her tongue out]

Seolhyun: Very funny~ [she said in a bored manner] 

Lauren: Listen. I have to tickets to a movie I got from a friend, would you be interested? [she smirked and raised a brow]

Seolhyun: Why would a friend give you two tickets for free instead of selling them? 

Lauren: Actually I won the tickets in a bet I made with that girl. Anyway do you want to go or not? [she showed her the tickets to increase the excitement in her]

Seolhyun looked at the book on her lap and then back at Lauren, already feeling guilt building up in her. 

Lauren: Come on. You desreve a break. 

Seolhyun: You think so?

Lauren: Sure! You earned it. [she grabbed her hand and started to pull her up]

Seolhyun: Lauren [she said in a sharp tone] I have to study!

Lauren: It's just a movie! and I don't have anyone to go with. Come on

Seolhyun: [sighed] Alright [she put the book on the table and got up] I'll get dressed. 

Lauren: Okay, I'll make an important phone call while you're in there [she nodded at the bathroom]

Lauren waited till Seolhyun picked her clothes from the closet and closed the door of the bathroom to make a phone call. Seh sat on the bed and looked at the bathroom door biting her lower lip till the wanted person answered the phone. 

Lauren: Oh! Jia How are you?... I'm also fine. Listen I have something to tell you.. I can't go to the movies with you tonight. I have stomach troubles and I don't want to risk anything.. I know I'm calling you off last minute. But I wasn't sure if my stomach troubles are going to stay you know :/  [she lied once more with a painful voice] I'm really sorry, maybe we can watch a movie some other time. Okay.. See you, bye 

She hung up the phone and in that exact moment Seolhyun comes out. Phew, perfect timing. She grabbed her bag and got up.

Lauren: Let's go [she headed out of the room first]

 

~ The date ~

 

Luhan considered himself in a deep mess. Although he was doing pretty fine at the dorm, acting like a girl. But somehow he forgot it all. He would push Chang slightly away whenever he gets too near to him, or simply touches him.

Good thing he could watch a movie without paying for the ticket. Chang told him to wait with his friends' girfriends till he gets the tickets with his friends. Luhan could only feel even more nervous. What if the girls find out he's a guy, there is a chance that they'll find it out considering they are girls, and they know what is fake in a girl and what isn't >.>  

Luhan gulped as he turned to the girls. This was the first time he wished he stayed with Chang since his girly look seemed to work fine on him. First thing the girls did was cheking Luhan out from head to toe in an "unobvious" manner. "So..." One girl said and Luhan could only feel the worse coming "You're Lia?"

Luhan: [gulps] yes I am. [he paused a bit and gathered his shattered self] And you are? [he smiled]

Girl: I'm Bao-yu [she reached her hand to Luhan] A friend of Chang. 

Luhan: Oh right. [he shook hands with her] I heard a lot of you.

Bao-yu: Really? From Chang? 

Luhan: [" Luhan you idiot what are you putting yourself into? " he smiled awkwardly and nodded. He knew if he said no, he would have to search for a person who talked about her, and if he said yes she would ask him what he said about her -_- great job Luhan] Yes from Chang, but don't worry he only said nice stuff about you hahahaha [he chuckled slightly with an eye-smile taking a glimpse at each one of the 3 girls]

Bao-yu: Really? like what?

Luhan: ["Aigoo just let it be, why do you have to know?"] Well.... [he scratched the back of his neck] That you're a nice friend and that you're helpful. I was actually looking forward to meet you. 

Bao-yu: Aww that's nice of you. [she smiled brightly]

Luhan: [smiled at her then looked at the girl who was standing on his left] And you are?

Girl: I'm Chan-juan. [she said coldly and on her lower lip checking Luhan out once more. It seemed like she felt something weird about Luhan but he himself wasn't really sure about if she found out too. He tried to act cool in order not to look more suspicious]

Luhan: Nice to meet you. I'm Lia

Chan-juan: I know. 

"And I am Chun. Wang Yong's girlfriend"  she confirmed before it gets more awkward between Luhan and Chan-juan.

Luhan: Wang Yong? [he asked as he shook hands with her]

Chun: Dui (yes) The guy over there. [she pointed cutely at her boyfriend who happened to be standing next to Chang buying the tickets with him] Oy! Wang Yong [she called him and her turned his head to look at her, waving] That's Wang Yong! [she smiled while waving back at him] Cute right?

Luhan: Not cuter than my Chang [he teased getting into it] 

Chun: hahaha [chuckled and hit Luhan's arm and he rubbed it laughing along] Oh I'm sorry, It's a weird reflex of mine when I find someone funny. [she said clumsy]

Luhan: It's okay. It didn't hurt at all. 

Chun: Oh Lia, Chang is calling for you. 

Luhan: Really? [he looked at Chang quizically looking at him. Chang responded with hand guestures, refering if he would like some popcorn and cola and Luhan nodded] 

Bao-yu: Awww how sweet. I wish my boyfriend would buy me popcorn and coke [she pouted] 

Chan-juan: Gee, you don't even have a boyfriend. 

Chun: Chan-juan! [she called her in a sharp tone, making her aware of the fact that this wasn't nice]

Luhan couldn't help but to chuckle for a second at their "interesting" conversation. He turned his head to hide his smile, looking at Chang's direction as he heard a piercing scream clinging in his ear "Lauren Easy! You're about to rip my arm from its place!!" He watched a tall girl being pulled by a short chubby one. He wasn't even sure if they caught his attention because they were too loud, or because they were speaking another language. "Nevermind" he thought to himself, wanting to turn his head. But he was shocked again.. Like an after effect of shock. He opened his eyes wider and tried to take a clearer look at her face. He suddenly found himself uttering out loud.

Luhan: Isn't that Mei's friend? [he quivered as he poked his lower lip with his index]

The other girls who were standing with him twitched their eyebrows and looked at the direction he was looking, trying to figure out who he was refering to. 

Bao-yu: Who are you talking about? [she blurted not having enough patience to search]

Luhan: Hmm? [he looked at her quizzically as if he woke up from his daze] Aaah. A friend of my cousin [he said, and looked back searching for her. He seemed to loose her between the crowd. Maybe he can focus on hearing English and he'll find her again] Girls can you help me? Look for a girl with long black hair, she's tall, accompanied with a short girl. 

The girls started to look right and left, but there was no sign of her... Maybe she already entered the cinema hall? Luhan himself didn't know why he insisted so much on finding her. Maybe it was the urging feeling of curiousity that builded up in him. 

Chun: Aaah Chang and Wang Yong are coming back. [she put on a cocky smile as she saw her boyfriend heading towards her. She kind of looked proud of having him?]

Again, Luhan felt his waist being surrounded by arms. "Oh lord please let this night go by in a glimpse!" Luhan cried to himself. He already gave up on searching, knowing that it wouldn't be any use. Besides, she would probably recognize him since she is a big fan of EXO as Mei once confirmed. She would only make things worse, bringing him disgrace, compromising who he truely is. According to his first and last meeting with that girl, he decided to be extra careful and keep his eyes open, because we all know what happened that time:

Mei: Well we have to go, our Taxi is waiting, thanks for reminding me to pick Chao up.

Seolhyun: No problem [she smiled at her] 

Mei: Okay so Bye~ [she let Chao down and grabbed his hand walking off waving to Seolhyun once more]

Luhan bowed with his head at Seolhyun and walked to the car. Seolhyun followed them a few steps till they got in the car. Mei looked out the window and waved at Seolhyun before the car started to drive away.

Mei: Bye Seolhyun! [waving at her, grinning]

Seolhyun: Bye Mei [waving back] Bye Luhan [she smiled sarcastic and turned around, walking away uttering words of anger to herself]

 

Never again! Best thing would be staying away from her, cause the last thing he wanted is for his plan to fail. Although he wasn't wearing a mask like back then. But being disguised as a girl wouldn't be a burden for that fan to recognize him since she's an expert. She probably knows where he has every mole in his body, all the flaws and impurities. Something for Luhan to fear about. 

Chang: Lia. I got your coke and popcorn [he smiled]

Luhan: Thanks [he took it returning the smile] 

Chang: So, I guess we can already go in and take our seats. Movie starts after [he checked his watch] 15 minutes! [he looked up again at every single one of them] 

Chan-Juan: Alright~ [she lead the gang to the hall]

All of them entered the hall and took their seats as written on the ticket.

Chang jolted the seat up for Luhan and patted on it refering him to sit next to him, smiling at him cutely. Luhan stood cutely there for a few seconds, although the lights were dim but he started searching for Mia's friend. He just wanted to make sure that she would stay far away from him, and cause him no danger. When he didn't find her any place near, he sighed a sigh of relief and sat down with his legs apart, staring at the big screen. There it was, two eyes staring at him like he commited some sort of crime. He turned his head to Chang's direction, trying to figure out what he did wrong. "Legs together.. Not a apart" Lay's voice flashed in his head, and he immediately lowered his head to look at this legs, closing the gasp between them, then eyeing Chang awkwardly. A sly smile formed on his lips to kill the tense atmosphere, yet Chang didn't really get why "Lia" was acting like a guy. Luhan intermittently turned his head to the other side, and squeezed his eyes, mentally cursing himself for messing up. How could he forget about sitting with his legs together? it's the first thing lay and Baekhyun promted him to do! 

He eventually opened his eyes as he heard a girl's voice saying in a strange language: " Let's sit here . Luhan looked up with his eyes wide open. Then hid his face with his palm, bending his back a bit. DAMN! CAN IT GET ANY WORSE?!! he thought to himself as he tried to find some way to get rid of Mei's friend. Why, out of all people in this hall, does it have to be her who's sitting next to him?! coincidence or irony of fate? Seolhyun was blabbering something with her friend, which he didn't understand because they were talking in english. He grunted with his face and looked to his left, pleading for someone's help. Then it popped in his mind. He clumsily straightened his back again and poked Chang's arm who was busy talking to his friends about something. 

Luhan: Chang~ [he said with a bit of aegyo] Changie~ [Chang turned his face to him]

Chang: Hmm? [he looked at him quizzically]

Luhan: Can we change places? [he pleaded for a yes with round twinkle eyes]

Chang: Why? [he asked after thinking of a reason for his sudden question]

Luhan: I feel uncomfortable here. [he said carefully]

For some reason Chang looked behind Luhan, presuming that the girl next to him was causing trouble, or she smelt odd or whatever the reason might be for his sudden change of behaviour. Chang oozed up, taking a fast glimpse of Seolhyun. Do you know those weird moments where you don't look at someone or even notice him until they look at you for a nano second and you _for some reason_ turn your head to their direction and you make eye-contact with that person for a few seconds then turn your head staring blankly feeling awkward? Yes? good. copy this moment and paste it to the situation between Chang and Seolhyun. In their case, Chang was the one who lowered his gaze feeling a bit embarrassed, as if he was caught doing something. He lowered his head and whispered to Luhan.

Chang: Is that girl next to you bothering you in one way or another?

Luhan: [blinked swiftly with his lips apart thinking of an answer. He doesn't want to sound mean telling him that Seolhyun was bothering him. Maybe he should just say that the seat is uncomfortable?] Actually I-

Excuse me, do you have a problem? [Luhan heard the girl next to him saying in a sharp tone]

Luhan turned his head a bit, enough to take a glimpse at her. How can a girl with an angelic face sound so fierce? Luhan didn't want to do anything to ruin this date. It's his one and only chance to put everything in the right track. He looked at Chang with puppy eyes, urging for his hero to fix this.

Chang: No, there isn't [he smiled softly]

Seolhyun: I believe you were refering to me with "the girl next to you" if I weren't mistaken. Do you often talk about people around you as if they were air? That's very rude you know?

The girl sitting next to Seolhyun pinched her arm, uttering something only Seolhyun could hear. "No I'm not going to keep quiet!" she hissed, pushing with her arm to avoid another coming pinch from her western friend. She then fixed her gaze on Chang once more, not worrying about her friend who was obviously afraid to say one more word. She seamed like the "tail friend" - who follows that... What so ever hell of a girl that probably had a bad day and picks on everyone in this hall - and does everything she's told to do, because she's too afraid to speak up for herself. Looking at the weak her, Chang somehow felt pitty for that little chicken who was hiding behind that beast who asked with no shame.

Seolhyun: So do you have a problem? 

Chang didn't know if he should laugh at the childish her or slap himself because of his stupidity to deal with such a worn out mentality like hers. He smirked and turned his head to face the big screen completely ignoring her. "It wouldn't bring much" he thought, and fixed his seat.

Seolhyun: I'm talking to you! [she said after a pause, glaring at him] 

Chang didn't show any interest and bent forward to tell Luhan to ignore her. Seolhyun couldn't take much longer: Firstly talking about her as if she doesn't exist, secondly she hates to be ignored, and last but not least she can't stand girly girls.

Seolhyun was about to take another step to pick a fight with this weird couple, when Lauren finally did something about it, telling her that it's not worth a fight and that she should drop it and calm down. It is odd that Seolhyun actually listened to the "tail-friend" that chang proclaimed her to be.. Hmmm well looks like she does have some sort of "power" to stand against some things she doesn't find right. Chang decided not to analyze anything more about this friendship that was keeping those two Speculated girls together.

Luhan was still hiding his face, fearing that Seolhyun might recognize him and destroy everything about this plan. "NO!" Luhan would think to himself "I won't let her destroy everything in a glimpse after I've worked hard for everything" he motivated himself and gathered up his courage "Especially now that I have stripped into those uncomfortable tight pants" He added as he straightened his back once more, yet still avoiding too let his face appear to that girl. He smoothly tucked his hair forwards form the side so it was covering his face from the two neighbors who happened to sit next to him. Although the vision wasn't very clear what Seolhyun was doing, but he could clearly tell that she was glaring at him. Her expression arrantly blunt. The theme song of the movie interrupted everything and snapped everyone back into reality, reminding the audiendce why they gathered in this hall. Luhan closed his eyes took a deep breath then opened them again, and hoped for the night to go smooth without any flaws. 

Chang seemed more than excited about the movie. He was gasping, laughing in surprise at the sudden scenes amazed, poking Luhan every now and then being carried away with the intense feeling of thrill. Luhan could only think how on earth a guy would take his date to watch an R rated movie. It was violent, brutal and included and bad language. Luhan had to turn his face a lot of time while people were being slaughtered with sharp cleaver. He didn't even get what the movie was about, it didn't really have a story. A group of five survivors armed with shotguns, axes and machetes wander through viallges savaging their predators with no mercy, breaking necks and other harsh scenes he didn't didn't want to observe so he won't have nightmares when this horrable night is finally coming to an end. "The Day" Luhan mentioned the title of the movie while thinking, nodding his head "aweful movie" he added and stood up when the word "intermission" appeared on the screen, he turned slowly to his right realizing that Seolhyun and her western friend weren't on their seats. Weird.. He doesn't remember himself seeing her get up although he didn't pay much attention to the movie. He shrugged and scuffed to head to the bathroom.. Perhaps he can have a word with Lay or Baekhyun. While checking his phone he saw a few missed calls and one message from Lay, he was about to check the message when he felt himself being pushed back when bumping into a girl who had juice in her hand and then bumped herself into a well built woman to spill the juice on her shirt. He shook his head out of shock and trailed his look up to analyze that woman who was releasing heavy breaths. Her skin moved in ripples as she waddled around, sweat oozing out of her skin like waterfalls. Her clothes were drenched in the grease of oily foods. Luhan tried to back up like the girl with the juice did because he didn't really want to get near that woman, and to be honest he kind of felt offended by the way she was glaring at him. Luhan gulped and tried to pass her by after uttering a "sorry" that he dearly meant. And he wasn't really surprised when the woman grabbed him from the hem of his shirt and pulled him back to stay where he was standing.. There wasn't any escape now. The last thing Luhan wanted was to put himself in trouble, he was already dealing with a lot of things. He clapped his hand together and tried to beg like a girl

Luhan: Please let me go. I'm really sorry. It wasn't even my fault I bumped into the girl and she bumped into you and spilled the juice on your shirt. She was the one who did it not me.. Please forgive me and let me go.. I be-

Woman: Shut up! [she blurted]

Luhan kept quiet. I guess that's what happens when you glue your eyes on your phone while walking. =.=' 

Woman: You made my shirt dirty! You think I will let you go that easily? 

Luhan: It's already soaking in oil, the juice wouldn't bother as much as oil.. [he whispered]

Woman: What? 

Luhan: N-Nothing!

Woman: Good. Now you listen to me well. You will go out and get me a ne-

Excuse me miss [a guy who wanted to pass by said. The woman looked at him and Luhan took that as a chance to escape. He stepped on her feet and shook off and ran down the hall to the bathroom while hearing her say: "I will get you!" But for some reason he wasn't really scared. He took it for a sweet escape!]

He reached the bathroom, cursed the girl with the juice and catched his breath before entering the ladies rest room.

Luhan: Lord be with me. [he thought and turned the handle and entered the room]

He stepped forward and closed the door behind him and looked at the group of girls who were fixing their makeup "Is that what girls do all the time in the restroom? seriously?!" he shook his head and entered one of the toilet cabins. While he was in there he heard the girls chatting about this guy one of them met. Appearantly he was very cute and had this adorable smile that made everyone lose his mind. He tried to listen to the conversation, perhaps he can learn something from them.. How girls talk, what they say to each other, or what topics they usually talk about.

Girl 1: Oh my god he is so cute.

Girl 2: I don't like him that much.. He seems odd, there's something he's hiding. 

Girl 3: Why not? He's handsome, funny, romantic. 

Girl 1: Uh so romantic. 

Girl 2: Naaa.. He's not the one for you. He's a fraud.

Girl 1: Don't say that about him! He's really nice, but doesn't show his real personality to anyone. 

Girl 2: Oh really? so he doesn't trust me or what? 

Girl 1: Maybe because you're a brat that's why he doesn't like to talk to you.

Girl 2: Shut up b***! I'm just being a good friend, obviously you don't deserve to have one!

Girl 1: S*** [she hissed before the 3rd one came in between them]

Girl 3: Both of you shut your mouth! we should go outside, he's probably wondering why we're taking so long.

Girl 1: Fine~ 

He heard furious fast steps moving further to the door. The steps stopped.

"Oh my god" Luhan could only think to himself while sitting in there. "Why are they cursing each other? I thought girls are nice to each other and giggle and compliment each other with "you look beautiful" or "I envy you so much you have a nicer body than mine"?" He shook his head as he heard them continue.

Girl 2: Fix your hair. You look horrible.  

Suddenly he could hear diverse steps released from their high-heels. Hearing the annoying squeak of the door. And finally the disappearance of their high-pitched voices. He flushed the toilet and went out releasing a sigh, washed his hands. He just wanted to talk to Lay or Baekhyun and let everything out. When he balnked on the screen he read the message Lay has sent him: " call me when you can! :D "  

Luhan punched the screen with his thumb searching for Lay's number till he found it. It started to ring. Luhan looked into the mirror checking if his disguise was still perfect. Making a few simple touches, adjusting his wig. A sudden "Hello" snapped him into reality and he flinched.

Luhan: Oh, Yixing hi [he said in a less confident tone] 

Yixing: Hi Luhan. I mean Lulu.. Wait, what was your name again? Lia? Lia right?

Luhan could hear Baekhyun from behind saying "yes it was Lia"  Lay chuckled while Luhan didn't say anything, he wasn't really in the mood of joking and laughing. 

Yixing: So how is it going?

Luhan: Everything's going well.. I guess.

Yixing: Uh-uh. Having trouble?

Luhan: Kind of.. There's this girl... [he suddenly stopped as he heard a weird voice coming from a cabin. He looked at each cabin then in a creepy manner asked Yixing to wait] Just a second, I have to check something. [he lowered down his hand as he heard an "Okay" from Lay] 

Luhan moved to the first cabin from the right and ducked to see if there were any feet. Nothing. He did the same with the other cabins, just bowing to make sure no one was listening, but there was no one there.. It's weird though, he could swear he heard a sound from one of the cabins. Should he open each door to check? He decided to open each door, just to make extra sure that no one was there to talk freely in his ntural voice. He opened the first door slowly. There was no one there. He skipped the cabin he was in, and moved to the next one. As he wanted to open the door, he heard Lay's words calling him. 

Lay: Luhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan! Are you there?

Luhan: [puts his phone on his ear] Yeah I'm here. 

Lay: What on earth are you doing? 

Luhan: I was just.. Nevermind [he moved back to the sinks] 

Lay: So about this girl?

Luhan: There's this girl I know. And I'm afraid she might recognize me and ruin my plan. 

Lay: Don't be so pessimistic. Even if she asked you if you were Luhan, tell her you aren't. You're a girl Luhan. Wait where are you?

Luhan: Ladies room. 

Lay: Oh. Okay.. I want you to look at yourself in the mirror and say "I'm a woman!"

Luhan: Hell no. 

Lay: Just do it. It gives a psychological effect. Come on.

Luhan: I'm a woman. [in a bored tone]

Lay: Believe in it Luhan. Say it with confidence. 

Luhan: What the.. 

Lay: [interrupting] Just do it. I'm trying to help.

Luhan: [sighs and pauses] I'm a wonderful woman!

Lay: Superb. Now go back into the hall. By the way, did he do anything..... y?

Luhan: He did touch me.. But didn't kiss me if that's what you mean. 

Lay: Good. is the movie over?

Luhan: Not yet. Intermission

Lay: I see.. Anyway.. What's the deal with that girl?

Luhan: She's.. I don't know what her problem is.. [he leaned his hand on the sink and then realized it wasn't such a great idea, then removed his hand disgustingly looking at it] She wants to pick a fight for some reason. [he wiped his hand on his shirt after wetting it with watter] She's digging her nose in stuff that doesn't concern he-

He suddenly hears one door of the cabinets open, he watches the reflection from the mirror to see the girl with the dark eye-bags storming out of the cabinet to the sinks washing her hands right beside him, not looking into his eyes. Luhan blinked with his eyes. His lips shaking a bit, his stomach churning. While small parts of his body were doing simple moves, he -unlike his body- stood there stiff just staring at the girl. He didn't knwo why he did the upcoming, but it was probably out of fear that she might recognize him. She managed to know his identity once and it wouldn't really be a challenge for her to identify it one more time. He pulled the collar for the shirt up to hide his mouth and nose when Seolhyun turned to face him. And although he knew that he was about to be killed or maybe recognized, he didn't move from his spot. The girl lowered her head and stared at some point releasing a sarcastic chuckle and then turned to look at him again with her dark eyes. "scary dark eyes" Luhan thought to himself as he exchanged her gaze, yet when he looked deeper he realized that they clearify more than threat, anxiety and sorrow. These eyes were different.. Evil yet protective.. Dark yet flashing and bright... Warm but freezing and dead.... carried hate but love at the same time. These are what you call captivating eyes. Luhan wasn't really sure for how long he has been lost in this spinning whirlwind of dark, playful eyes. But he does remember hearing his name being called several times and not being able to utter one single word. He the realized that his heart was pounding like crazy for the last few minutes, his breath heavy.. Was it thrill and fear or something else? Out of shame, he lowered his gaze and stared at the phone he had in his right hand. He cleared his throat and cut the line and bit his lower lip in regret before chattering a low-toned " sorry "

Seolhyun: Apology not accepted [she squinted with her eyes and looked to the side] Do you really have no shame to talk about a girl as if she was bubbles?

Luhan didn't know how many types of girls existed on earth. But he definitely knew that this was the scarriest girl he has ever bumped into many times. He released a silent shaking breath and turned his head to the right to look at her from the corner of his eyes. Luhan was 100% sure that she was one of those girls who bullied other girls at school.

Luhan: [looks at her] Bubbles? I didn't say anything..

Seolhyun: Oh. My mistake.. So the girl you were talking about was Mrs. bubbles you once met at school.. 

Luhan: School? Bubbles? what? 

Seolhyun: Forget the bubbles. What's with that silly move pulling your T-shirt up.. Are you hiding from someone or what?

Luhan: Th-That's none of your business.. I-

Where is she??!! [he heard a familiar angry voice calling from outside the rest room]

Luhan opened his eyes widely and grabbed Seolhyun's hand and rushed to one of the cabinets and locked the door. 

Seolhyun: What the hell?? [she pulled her arm and glared at him]

Luhan: Shhhhhhhh! please be quiet, she'll hear us [he closed the lid of the toilet and sat on it, and pulled his feet up and put them on the door] Sit [he ordered]

Seolhyun: What am I? Your pet? [she furrowed her brows] 

Luhan: Just sit and pretend that you're using the toilet for god's sake [he grabbed her by her waist and forced her to sit on his lap sidely]

Seolhyun: Are you crazy?! [she blurted and glared at him angrily]

Luhan: Shhhh! [putting his index on his lips] she's coming. 

Seolhyun: W-Wait.. Haven't I see- huh! [she gasped as she heard the door of the rest room being opened. Steps could be heard wandering in front of the cabinet. She didn't know why, but she kept quiet and stared at the door of the cabinet she and "Lia" were sitting in]

Where are you @#)*%? Are you there? [a kicking on the door of the next cabin could be heard] 

Seolhyun: Jincha.. Shameless woman. [she blurted in korean and hissed after that]

Luhan gritted his teeth and closed his eyes in regret that he brought her in this cabin with him.

Woman: Is that you? [she kicked on their door harshly, and Seolhyun explode out of anger]

Seolhyun: Stop kicking! 

Woman: I won't stop till you come out! [she kicked once more]

Seolhyun: Okay that's it [she got up and Luhan held onto her waist, forcing her to stay in here "What are you doing??" he would whisper] Let me go. I'll put an end to this! [she slapped his hand away and opened the door ajar so that woman won't see Luhan. she squeezed herself out of the cabin and closed the door behind her and stood still in front of the woman. She knew that the woman would probably be  hundred times stronger than her, and that she can smash her head on the door and she'll be dead. But she didn't care.. One of the most things she hated was bullying... And yes Luhan was wrong, she wasn't the type who bullies, she was the saviour] Would you stop being so wild? That's not how a woman behaves.

Woman: Pfff [she looked to the side and hissed a laugh] Who are you to tell me how a real woman behaves.

Seolhyun: [took a few seconds to answer, looking at her in a look that's saying: "Are you dumb or dumb"] I'm a woman~ 

Luhan was sitting quiet in there. Listening carefully to them and hoping to himself that she won't do Seolhyun no harm. He didn't want her to get hurt because of him. 

Woman: Good for you. Where's that brown-haired tramp. Did you see her in there?

Seolhyun: Well.. [coughs and looks at her from head to toe. starting from her slippers till she finally stopped at her messy brown hair] I don't know what brown-haired tramp you're talking about.. There are a lot of them. [she on her lower lip hiding her smile]

A simple burst of laughter from the nose could be heard in the cabin behind Seolhyun. Luhan covered his nouth with both of his hands, cursing himself mentally with eyes wide open. The woman looked at the door behind Seolhyun and Seolhyun sighed, and slapped her face, shaking her head at his stupidity. The woman looked at Seolhyun. They exchanged looks and Seolhyun squinted at her. Luhan was araid of the odd silent between  the both of them. Seolhyun didn't oppose her when she passed her by to open the door. Seolhyun sticked her tongue out from the cornre of , then abruptly took a deep breath and said "Wait" The woman who standing right next to her eyed Seolhyun.

Seolhyun: What would you say if you and me bring it up outside.. [she looked at her in a cold manner] 

Woman: I came to deal with the brown- haired girl. Mind your own business~

Seolhyun: What did she do to you anyway? 

Woman: She spilled the juice on me! 

Seolhyun: She what? [she looked at her and then her soaked shirt] Ow.. Not nice.

Woman: You see.. [she said in a monotone and grabbed the handle of the door behind Seolhyun and opened it revealing a distressed Luhan sitting there like a chick on the toilet lid with his big round eyes] Get up @)%$*

Luhan: What? [scared a bit] 

Seolhyun: [turned around to face the both of them] She told you nicely to get up [she chamed and stared at Luhan's eyes.]

No one knew why Seolhyun suddenly changed her mind and decided not to help Luhan out anymore.. She was doing fine a while ago.. What happened? Yet Luhan still had faith in her. Or let's better say he had some faith in her, and he actually slowly and carfeully got up and stared at the ground.

Seolhyun: Allow me to slap her first? [she begged and the woman looked at her in confusion] Please? [Seolhyun added and grabbed Luhan's hand dragging him out of the cabin]

Luhan was bug-eyed. What does she want to do?? is she out of her mind?! wasn't she the hero? how come she switched roles now?! He felt the adrenaline rush in his body. He looked at the woman and he sweared he saw the woman nodding at Seolhyun agreeing on her suggestion. Luhan eyed Seolhyun really wondering if she's going to punch him in the face and then hit his head on the sink.

Luhan: S-Seolhyun?... [he called her to wake her consious up.. Maybe she still has some humanity in her]

Seolhyun: How do you know my name?? O.o

Luhan: What?

Woman: What? [she eyed both of them]

Seolhyun looked at the Luhan and then at the woman, then back at Luhan.

Luhan: Oh crap [he grabbed Seolhyun's hand and ran away with her, kicking the door of the rest room open] RUN RUN RUN [he screamed and ran as fast as he could]

Luhan was a fast runner unlike Seolhyun. She couldn't keep up with him even though he was holding her hand and guiding her through the corridor and took the stairs to the second floor. Seolhyun catched for her breath and begged Luhan to stop. At some point he stopped and faced the wall catching his breath, thoughts racing through his head: "Is is possible that she has recognized me?" "Did she find out my real identity?"  He decided not to turn around to look at her face directly. 

Seolhyun: What the hell was this all about?

Luhan didn't dare to say one word. Although he was pretending to be a girl, faking his voice and moving softly. But he didn't want to risk anything. She has already doubted about him being a real girl twice. 

Seolhyun: Who are you? [she followed up with a question]

Luhan didn't utter a word, he just stared at  the ground blankly. Not sure if he should say something or not. He swallowed his words and decided to walk away. It's better not to answer any of her questions. He took his first step but felt her warm hand grabbing onto his.

Seolhyun: Are you... Luhan? [she said carefully not even sure of her persumption]

Luhan was dumbfounded. If he lied to her and told her no, she wouldn't believe him, back in the rest room she directly looked into his eyes deeply, and if he doesn't say yes and denies that he's Luhan and is just a random girl that happened to look like him, she wouldn't believe him either.. If he stayed quiet it would be definitely clear that he's Luhan. What to do.. ? confused about the 3 options he gave himself, he then decided to walk away. He slightly pulled his hand away and turned around to take one last look at her. Once again this freezing moment filled the air, both just standing there like statues glaring at each other trying to find the answer in their eyes. Neither one of them knew when the next move of any one of them would be taken. Luhan looked at his feet.

Luhan: I'm sorry. I'm in a hurry. [he strolled and then started to walk in a fast pace almost running away from her]

Seolhyun: Luhan.. Luhan wait [she ran after him bumping into the people trying to catch up with him]

Luhan somehow blended in the crowd and managed it to escape. The last thing he wanted after being spotted dressing as a girl, was a crazy girl screaming his name, runnning after him wanting to touch him.. Oh how he hated Sasaeng fans. He found himself in front of the hall he was in earlier. He entered it and sank himself in the seat next to Chang catching his breath.

Chang: Where were you? You suddenly disappeared.. [he looked worried at him] 

Luhan: Y-Yeah... [he said with a shaking voice]

Chang: Are you alright? [he rubbed his arm, taking a clearer look at his face]

Luhan: [turns his head to another direction] I'm fine. Don't worry about me.

Chang: alright.. [he said and removed his hand]

Luhan: Chang can you tell one of your friends to change seats with me?

Chang: Why? You don't feel comfortable?

Luhan: It's not that.. I just don't want to sit here because of that girl.. Let Chan-Juan sit here.

Chang: O-Okay.. [he said weirdly and told Chan-Juan to change seats with Luhan]

Soon enough the break ended and the violent uninteresting movie started to play again. Luhan checked his phone realizing that Lay called him again, and sent him a message too. He replied that he had to suddenly cut off and that he'll talk to him later on and focused on the big screen again, careless about the zombies that were being killed. He closed his eyes and hoped for some sleep despite the loud sound effects of the weapons in the movies. Funny how Seolhyun didn't return to her seat.

Chang: Lia.. bao bei (baby) Wake up.

Luhan: [opens his eyes slowly] What?

Chang: The movie is over. Come on we need to go.. 

Luhan: Already?

Chang: Yeah. D-Do you want me to carry you?

Luhan: What? Carry me? No! [stands up] I'm fine. [he looked at his right.. The girl probably left. He sighed and looked at Chang again] Okay let's go.

All of them headed out and gathered in front of the cinema on the sidewalk and chatted. Chang grabbed Luhan's hand and squeezed on it a bit, gaining a weird gaze from him in return.

Luhan: What? [he said softly]

Chang: Thank you for coming tonight. I really apreciate it. [he said in a sweet tone looking into Luhans stary eyes]

Luhan: Y-You're welcome.. [he said awkwardly] 

Chang: And sorry if the movie was boring.

Luhan: You didn't write the script.. [he made an excuse for him and chuckled]

Chang: Yeah but you fell asleep and that's not good. 

Luhan: I was tired that's all.. 

Chang: Okay [he smiled at him and turned his head to the others as he heard them yelling in excitement: "Kiss Kiss Kiss" Chang laughed in embarrassment as he saw them cheering for Chun and Wang Yong to kiss each other. He looked at Luhan for a second with his eye-smile and looked at the kissing couple again laughing along with the others]

Luhan gulped as he saw one of Chang's friends looking at him, he avoided direct eyecontact and pretended that he wasn't paying attention.

Your turn [one of the girls said and giggled.]

Luhan squeezed his eyes shut and pretended he didn't know that she was talking to him and Chang. Chan-Juan poked Luhan with her elbow. Luhan flinched and looked to his right at Chan-Juan cursing her in his mind. "Just leave me alone" he muttered looking to the side again as he heard her growning.

Chan-Juan: Bao-Yu was talking to you.

Luhan: I know [he glared at her] Can't you just keep quiet?

Chang: Lia, calm down.. I'm not going to force you to do anything. [he chuckled]

Chan-Juan: Why are you so against kissing your boyfriend?

Luhan had a semi heart attack. What does she want from him?? Can't she just mind her own business? 

Luhan: I'm not against it. I just don't feel comfortable kissing him in front of you [he looked to the side, hoping that his silly excuse will get him out of this] 

Chan-Juan: Why? Chun and Wang Yong did it.. Why wouldn't you two do it? Chang why don't you just grab your girlfriend and kiss her?

Luhan: Would you just shut up???!! [he yelled at her]

Chang: Lia relax.. Just forget it okay?

Luhan: Just tell her to leave me alone.

Chan-Juan: Why are you making a big deal out of it? It's just a kiss [she said in an irritating tone]

Luhan: Why don't you just leave me alone! [he reached the peak of anger]

Chang: Alright.. Aright [he cut in between them and grabbed Luhan by his arm and dragged him to the side to have a word with his the girl who was actually a guy, but pretended to be a girl to act as his girlfriend (Confused? :P) ] Look Lulu.. Lulu was your name right?

Luhan: Yes [he said after a big pause] 

Chang: I'm really sorry that it came to this. Chan-Juan is always like that.. She insists on things no one cares about. And she has a way of talking that makes you want to slap her. I personally was provoked by her once, and I almost threw my water bottle on her because she was irritating me, but then I realized that she's just that kind of girl that doesn't show much emotions. She isn't cold, but isn't really sentiment you know what I mean?

Luhan: I think so.. 

Chang: You can say that she's dead in the outside, blooming in the inside but the high walls surrounding her are preventing her to present her beauty and beam to the light.

The only thing Luhan could think of while Chang's grib on his arms tightened, was that he totally has nothing to do with poetry. What does dead in the outside have to do with high walls and light beam? O.o He could have said that she's hiding her emotional rush under a mask or other nonesense.. Luhan cleared his throat and looked down and tried to think about where he was heading with his words.

Chang: What I'm trying to say is... Don't take everything she says personal, because she deosn't really think twice before she speaks. She just says what she has in mind. 

Luhan: Without taking caution that others might find her words offending or hurtful.[he completed his sentence]

Chang: [pouted with his lips] You can say that.. [he hissed a laugh] Anyway. Don't listen to her.. [he rubbed Luhan's right arm]

Luhan: Okay.. [he tried to escape his grib, already feeling uncomfortable being around him as his lover.]

Chang grabbed his hand and dragged him back to the group. 

Chan-Juan: I see you didn't kiss [she said teasing]

Luhan: [glared at her and crossed his arms in front of his chest]

Chang: Chan-Juan, enough is enough.

Chan-Juan: Alright [she groaned and looked to the side]

Chang: Alright guys.. Me and Lia will leave now.

Bao-Yu: What? whyyyyyyyyyyy? Are you mad at us because we wanted you to kiss? I'm sorry I didn't want to make you feel uncomfortable.

Luhan: It's not you.. I just feel tired and I have a busy day tomorrow. 

Bao-Yu: Okay. You sure you're not mad? [she looked at her worried]

Luhan: [smiled at her naive personality and then nodden with his head] Yes. 

Chang: Alright [he chimed as he clapped his hands together] I will accompany Lia and take her home.

Luhan: No I can take a cab.

Chang: It's okay, I don't mind taking you home sweety.

Luhan got the chills as he heard him calling him sweety.

Luhan: I'm fine really. 

Chang: I won't let you go home alone. We'll take a cab together. 

Bao-Yu: Lia it's better if you take a cab with Chang. Just to be careful you know. It's already late. 

Luhan: Fine [he sighed and smiled at Bao-Yu.. Such a nice sweet girl]

As soon as they got a cab, Luhan wished everyone a good night. The car moved and Cahng thanked him once more for being his date and "saving" the night. The rest of the ride was quiet. He thanked god that their date has come to an end and that it went good. It wasn't that horrible as he tought it would be. When the car stopped one block away from the dorm, Chang surprisingly got out of the car. Why would he get out of the car, he could've just told the driver to take him to his place so why would he get out of it? Chang smiled at Luhan and put his hands in his pockets. He looked kind of shy.

Chang: Thank you again for doing me this favor. 

Luhan: I did it for my cousin [he tucked a strand of his hair behind his ear]

Chang: Yeah [he looked at the ground] Where is the apartment you live in?

Luhan: It's ermmm [he looked at the building behind him and stuttered, pointing at a random apartment on the second floor] That one [he released a tense chuckle and scratched his head] So ummmm.. Good night 

Chang: Good night [he smiled and approached him] 

Luhan quickly avoided his face surprised. WHAT THE....???? 

Chang: Hahaha don't worry, I just wanted to get this [he pulled something out from the unsteady wig] You had this on your hair [he smiled at him]

Luhan was literally embarrassed and ashamed of himself. But how could he know that there was something on his wig? Maybe we humans always expect the worse?

Luhan: Th-Thank you. [he paused] I will go now. 

Chang: Okay. Good night [he flashed a bright smile and tucked his hands in his pockets and watched Luhan walking towards that building]

Luhan walked a few steps then turned around and looked at Chang again and waved, refring that he should go and that he'll be alright by himself. but Chang just stood there. Luhan took a deep breath and returned to Chang, and told him that he should better go home. After a lot of struggling Chang agreed that he would go home.

Chang: Oh my taxi is here. [he smiled at him]

Luhan: Okay good night. 

Chang: Good night.

As soon as he left, Luhan ran to the dorm. And as soon as he entered the dorm, Lay welcomed him with a thrilling look on his face, and dragged him to his own room and Baekhyun raided the room, kicking the door open. Both, Lay and Luhan didn't really mind if Baekhyun came in and listened to them, cause after all he was part part of the operation "transform Luhan into Lia". Baekhyun took a chair and payed full attention to what Lay was telling Luhan.

Lay: Okay, Chang called me and said that he will meet us in a few minutes. 

Luhan: REALLY??? [he stared in disbelieve]

Lay: Yes, so we better get going now. Change your clothes and let's go 

Luhan: Okay. [he stood up and then screamed in happiness] I did it! I did it! oh my god, pinch me now

Baekhyun: [pinches hard and Luhan groans in pain glaring at Baekhyun.] What? You told me to pinch you..You know I listen to my hyungs..

Luhan: Get lost. 

Baekhyun: Go get dressed. Your boyfriend is waiting for you [he stucked his tongue out, teasing him while strolling to the door]

Luhan: You! You... [he took off his wig and throwed it at Baekhyun and Baekhyun avoided it laughing like a maniac after closing the door shut]

Baekhyun's piercing laugh could still be heard. Luhan shook his body as if he got goosebumps by hearing his irritating laugh.

Lay: You should have thrown something lighter than a wig -_- 

Luhan: Haha very funny.

Lay: Come on go change your clothes and let’s get going. You want to meet that girl don’t you?

Luhan: Yes.

Lay: Then go!

Luhan: alright.

He took his clothes and rushed into the bathroom and quickly stripped into his jeans and hoody, washed his face. Soon enough Luhan and Lay made their way. Tao wanted to come with them just to get some fresh air since it's already late at night and fans won't bother them much. But Luhan declined saying that They are visiting a friend of Lay's and that they had something important to do after that. Although it was heart breaking to see Tao's down expression, yet what had to be done should be done with no consequences coming in between. Luckily Baekhyun came for the rescue and went out with Tao to take a walk. Going out with Baekhyun was always fun, even if he doesn't really have a certain place in mind to go to, he will just wander in the streets and make fun of stuff on sale he sees. Rather it was clothing, weird hats and wigs or whatever. So there was no doubt that Tao will have fun with Baekhyun.

When Luhan and Lay arrived to Chang's apartment, Lay warned Luhan -since he's a clean freak- that his apartment might look untidy.. Luhan nodded in awareness and knocked till the door finally opened. At first Luhan wanted to hide his face because Chang might probably recognize his face after looking deep into his eyes after having an honest word with "Lia" about The dead flower in the tower. He lowered his head, but was reliefed when he heard Chang welcoming them in his apartment. And in deed it was filthy.

Chang: Okay, I'll keep my promise. You can go to my room over there [he pointed at his room] Do you want anything to drink? [he headed to the kitchen]

Luhan answered a "No" while Lay yelled a "yes a coke please".both at the same time. They eyed each other and Luhan could only give him a quizzical look while whispering "Do you even know if the glasses are clean?" Lay didn't react, and looked at Chang again and insisted on a coke. 

Soon as he got his coke they all headed to Chang's room to check on the hacking program. 

Lay: Chang, can you teach me how to hack?

Chang: [furrowed his brows and looked at him in a weird manner] No [he hissed a laugh]

Lay: Okay. 

Chang: Alright so.. What do you know about her? Give me any information about her so I can hack her. 

Luhan: She has a fanfic called  "Between two worlds"  It's on Baidu. She has personal informations about herself on that site. [he said in one breath looking at how fast Chang was searching for it] 

Chang: Xiaululu? is that her? 

Luhan: Yes that's her. [he ducked forward on the table and leaned his chin on his hand] 

Chang: Okay great, she has facebook. That would be easier to hack it. 

Lay: How much would it take? 

Chang: About 5 minutes or so.. Depends if her account is protected. [he started to use the facebook hacking program]

Lay was watching closely. He didn't even touch his coke. Luhan took a deep breath and wanted to tell him to hurry up be he didn't want to push it or put some presure on him. Instead he sat there quiet, praying and hoping that he would find informations about her. 

Lay: Is that program you use for hacking available to download?

Chang: [looked at him intermittently and stared at him for a while before answering] You ain't getting any information about having this program on your laptop.

Lay: [looks at him inocently] Why? You have it.. Why can't I have it?

Chang: Because! Stay quiet. Let me focus. [he groaned anf glued his eyes on the laptop again] Great. I hacked her facebook account..

Luhan: REALLY?!

Chang: Yup. And her e-mail address is [email protected]. Do you want me to hack her e-mail address? 

Luhan: Yes! 

Chang: Okay. I just hope her Password isn't too long or else it might take months.

Luhan: What? Noooooo

Chang: Keep the faith.[he opened a different program this time]Yixing drink your coke, or I will. [he said without taking his eyes off the screen]

Lay: Okay [he said in a frightened manner and took the glass and sipped on it]

Chang: Change password [he muttered while doing his work] ChangIsAwesome [he typed] verify passowrd... Done. Aaaaand change. [he relaxed on his seat]

Luhan: Now what?

Chang: Now we hope that her password is easy to crack. 

Luhan: Oh god.. [he rubbed his face desperately] How long does it take if it's an easy one?

Chang: [pouted with his lips and started swaying with his black office chair left and right.] About 5 to 10 minutes. 

Luhan: I hope it works.

Chang: Let's eat while the program works. Is anyone of you craving for a pizza? 

Luhan answered with a simple "No" while Lay shouted "Yes" Luhan eyed Lay with quivered eyebrows... Deja-vu?

Chang: Okay. I'll call the pizzeria. be right back. 

Luhan and Lay were left all alone in the room once again.

Lay: How was your date? [he teased with a smile]

Luhan: [glaring at Lay] Don't start! 

Chang: Okay [he clapped his hands together as he stormed into his room again] Let's see.. [he checked his computer and sat on his chair] Nothing yet. [he took a deep breath and looked at the devestaed Luhan]

Lay: [breaking the silence] How did the date go?

Chang: It was pretty good actually. She's so freaking hot and cute I didn't even want to say good night to her. My friends were jealous. 

Luhan looked at Chang wide-eyed. He felt disgusted of the fact that he was actually talking about him. Chang observed that Luhan was giving him creapy looks and opened his mouth shaping it as an "O" 

Chang: Oh man... I'm sorry, I didn't mean to talk about your cousin like that.. But it's the truth. She's very interesting.

Lay bit on his lower lip and lowered his head, hiding his laugh while Luhan intermittently turned his head to the left and gazed at the ground, traumatized. Chang was about to say another word when a sudden "Blum" sound came from the computer. The three heads fixed their gazes on the screen and read the pop out box that revelead itself out of nowhere "Your password has been successfully changed!" 

Chang: Alriiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight [he chimed and scotted with his chair closer to the table] Let's do it! Inbox [he clicked after logging in with the new password he had set] Professor Xing.. National library in China.. Student Jobs.. Jia.. Lin.. Niu.. Phew looks like she doesn't delete old e-mails. Which one should we open?

Luhan: All of them until we find something. 

Chang: Okay.. Professor Xing is saying.. Dear Mrs. Kim I apologize for replying your e-mail so late. Due to the massive ammounts of emails I personally get per day, I can't get to reply each email quickly. Deadline for accepting your paper work would be at the upcoming tuesday 14.08 12:15 p.m. [he looked at Lay and then at Luhan] That was last tuesday. 

Luhan: Okay how about this national library what's that? 

Chang read the email quickly.

Chang: It says that she has been accepted to work at it.

Luhan: What-

[Ding Dong!]

Chang: Ow! must be the pizza! Lay can you get the door please? I'll pay you for the pizza later. 

Lay: Okay. 

Chang: Okay. ummm [he sighed and scratched his head] Student jobs.. 

Luhan: No skip this.. Check those personal emails. 

Chang: Okay. Oh wait. Check this out! The subject says: PARTY AT OUR PLACE! [he looked at Luhan with a bright smile]

Luhan: Well what are you waiting for open it!

Chang: This is also old. Anyway it says: The subject says it all! Party at our department. When? Thursday August 2. 7 p.m. Where? Li Xiaofang

Apartment 8, Building 5, No. 6 Hongkong East Road. I don't know what to tell you man.. But you're lucky! 

Luhan: Is this really her address??? [he said in disbelieve]

Chang: Yes! 

Luhan: Oh my god! That's it?? All my problems will be solved now!

Chang: Yes.. I think so

Lay: Pizza is here. 

Luhan hurried towards Lay and grabbed the pizza box. 

Lay: I though you didn't want any pizza? 

Luhan: [puts the box on the table and grabs Lay's hand and storms out of the room]

Lay: Woaw gege.. What's wrong?

Luhan: I got her address! [he let go of his hand and wore his shoes] 

Lay: What? WOW that's great! 

Luhan: I know. Get your shoes on.

Lay: Oh.. Wait. Let me get a slice of pizza. [he hurried] 

Luhan: There's no time for pizza now. [he held him from the hem of his shirt and pulled him back] Come on.. Put your shoes on.

Lay: But I'm hungry! [he pouted]

Luhan: I'll get you a pizza later. I promise. Now hurry!

Chang got out eating a slice of his extra cheese pizza he ordered. Lay put on his shoes and stood up and looked around him. His eyes met the pizza and they immediately teared at the view of Chang taking a big bite of it.

Lay: Extra cheese pizza [he cried with a shaking voice]

Chang: Should I get you a piece? Wait I'll bring you a piece [he jogged to his room]

Luhan: [grabbed Lat by the collar of his shirt and dragged him out]

Lay: Luhan pleaaaaaaaaaaaaase, just let me take a slice of pizza! Please! [he struggled trying to escape his grip]

Luhan: I said I'll buy you tons of slices later. I have to see that girl!

Lay could swear that he saw Chang coming back with the box before Luhan closed the door. Luhan didn't even take the alivator, he took the stares because he wanted to use every minute and take advantage of it. Cause waiting for the alivator to come takes too long. Chang opened the door and heard Luhan's voice saying "Hurry Yixing hurry" blending with the fast steps echoing in the stairway.

Chang: Wait.. Yixing your pizza! [he held onto the handrail and ducked a bit to see their heads moving "Pizzaaaaaa!" he could hear Yixing cry out loud. it echoed many times till he suddenly heard a loud "BOOM" replacing it. After that the stairway went quiet.] Well.. At least I got the pizza for free [he shrugged and got back inside his apartment]

 

~ Seolhyun and Lauren ~

 

Seolhyun: Mmmmmm That tea smells good. [she watched Lauren take a seat next to her on the chair she had prepared for her, planning for a night on the balcony]

Lauren: Well.. my tea always smells and tastes good! [she admitted proudly]

Seolhyun: [took the cup of tea and put it under her nose, inhaling the scent of it and feeling the hot steam on the tip of her nose] Mmmmm.. Just what I needed. [she closed her eyes in harmony]

Lauren: So.. What now?

Seolhyun: [opened her eyes frantically and looked at her] What do you mean?

Lauren: I mean.. Do you think that this is how you and Luhan met according to your story?

Seolhyun: I'm not sure.. He wasn't even wearing the necklace. 

Lauren: Right, you told me that earlier. 

Seolhyun: [sigh] What bothers me is that I didn't even get the chance to tell him anything!

Lauren: You'll get another chance... [she took a sip of her tea] ! [she spat it and placed the cup on the small table with a grunt expression] Hot [she added and sank in her seat]

Seolhyun: [released a deep breath and looked at the little trees on the sidewalk] I just hope I see him one day and have the chance to tell him that I'm his long-lost friend if that's even true.. [she leaned her chin on her left knee and stared blankly at the street]

Lauren: Get yourself together girl~ [she comforted her and patted her arm smiling at her, then turned her head to enjoy the silent moment after deciding to forgive her hot tea and give him another chance.] Hey wait.. Who are those guys entering our building?! [she straightened her back and leaned forward to take a better look] Am I illusioning?

Seolhyun: Oh look that guy looks like Lay haha.. And that one like Luh- Oh my god LUHAN! [she shouted  without planning and the guy who was confused a few seconds ago looked straight at her. Since they were living in the 3rd floor and because it was dark, he didn't see her face clearly. Seolhyun was nervous and her heart was beating fast. For god's sake she almost had a heart attack when Luhan's eyes landed on her. Luckily when she saw them she placed her cup of hot tea on the table, otherwise she would have spilled it on herself while Lauren was harshly pulling her down to hide]

Lauren: What is he doing here?! [she whispered with a peeping sound]

Seolhyun: I don't know! [she covered her face] This is going to be embarrassing! What should I do?? I'm going to pretend that I'm not here. [she wanted to crawl back inside to hide somewhere]

Lauern: [she grabbed her shirt and stopped her from going] Are you kidding me?! This is the moment you were waiting for your whole life. Don't back up now! Face him, tell him that you're THE Seolhyun who played with him when he was a freaking cute little baby boy! 

Seolhyun: [she thought about Lauren's words for a few seconds and then she burried her head and shook it] No, no I can't do that. I just can't! [she raised her head again and looked straight at her] He's going to think that I'm some maniac who's crazy about him!

Lauren: Idiot! You have a proof! Your necklace!

Seolhuyn: I know, but still

Lauren: AAh! [she smacked her head and Seolhyun whined]

Seolhyun: Ouuuuch! Why did you do that? 

Lauren: Because you deserve it! Stop making excuses.

Seolhyun: You haven't seen the way he looked at me. He's probably going to scold me for revealing his identity in a public place!

Lauren: Maybe he wants to thank you for saving him in the restroom from that beast! 

Seolhyun: [though about it] No I don't think so. How did he find out where I live anyway.. 

Lauren: Good question!

*Boom boom boom boom boom* several knocks could be heard. Seolhyun gasped and opened her eyes widely. Her breaths became heavier and Lauren could tell that she was frightened! She got up and wanted to walk to the door when she suddenly felt that Seolhyun was grabbing onto her neck, trying to pull her down!

Lauren: What are you doing?!

Seolhyun: Don't open the door please Lauren, I beg you!

Lauren: L-Let g-go! [she pulled her leg and managed to escape, marched to the main door]

Seolhyun: Lauren! [she got up on her feet and hurried after her then jerked forward and quickly hid behind the wall when she heard the squeak of the door] 

Lauren: Hi! [she managed to say with a calm tone although she wanted to scream and hug both of them tightly]

Are you Xiau lulu? [the familiar voice asked and an awkward moment of silent occupied the room] 

Why would Luhan ask for her nickname?! 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm really really really really sorry that I took a lot to update. I don't want to promise you false things and tell you that the next part is soon when I know that it isn't going to be soon :(

Anyway I hope you enjoyed this part, and that you're looking forward to the next one

Comment and share!

Love you all,

Maha
