The car rocked gently down the street with four people sitting inside. Sehun and I took the back seat while Kai and Mina sat in the front. I took out my phone and checked the time, it was a quarter after eleven. There weren't much people on the small road that led to Sehun's neighborhood. We passed by houses with beautiful decorations and brightly illuminated trees.

Mina and Kai chatted happily in the front like two lovebirds. They were so charming together and I was happy for them. Although Kai was a little dirty at times, Mina didn't seem to mind. 

I was quiet after the experience I had with my brother. I still couldn't understand why Luhan decided to do such an indecent thing. Sehun kept quiet and I didn't want to tell anyone else about what happened. It was such a shame, and it would surely ruin everyone else's mood. It was a Christmas party, and I didn't want anyone to feel sad for me.

When we arrived at Sehun's place, we all gasped when we saw the beautiful decorations that hung around the house and on the lawn. The edges of the ceiling had Christmas lights and icicles hanging down, there was a group of fake reindeer shaped lights standing on the snowy lawn, and the trees had Christmas lights wrapped around the branches. It was fascinating!

"Wow, this is so pretty!" Mina exclaimed and I nodded along.

Sehun smiled. "I'm glad you ladies like it. It is actually a big thanks to my friends for putting these up. Suho is very interested in decorating and making things look nice."

Kai chuckled and joked about how motherly Suho was before we went inside. 

Just like how I remembered it from the last visits, Sehun's house was still as amazing as ever. To my surprise, it was quiet inside his house. I was secretly glad that there wouldn't be a hardcore party going on, because I wouldn't be able to handle it.

The two other boys rushed out from the kitchen bickering and laughing. Suho had a splatter of white liquid on his face as he tried to catch Baekhyun. Baekhyun quickly ran behind Sehun for protection and laughed. 

"What are you guys doing?" Sehun questioned and protected Baekhyun from Suho's attack.

"Suho is trying to murder me," Baekhyun said and roared in laughter. 

Suho pointed at Baekhyun accusingly. "It's all thanks to this boy that my face is covered with his wet cake mix," he said loudly and Kai laughed at his words. 

"Baekhyun, you sure worked hard to cover Suho's face in your sticky, wet, and creamy-" Kai stopped his sentence and wiggled his eyebrows.

We all groaned at Kai's dirtiness. Suho was traumatized by Kai's words and smacked him hard. The ert laughed and made fun of them more. I wanted to laugh along with them, but I couldn't bring myself to smile after what had happened. I surely hoped they wouldn't notice my poor mood.

Once the two settled down, Suho looked at us and smiled. "So people, how were your dates? Did you guys have fun?"

"Were there any hot actions?" Baekhyun added teasingly and winked at Mina and I.

We both immediately shook our heads, but I caught a pink color creeping up Mina's ears. Kai grinned  and the two shared eye contact. Those two were suspicious, and we all knew it.

We played games and food. When we played truth or dare, Baekhyun dared Kai to Mina's face, which he did with no protest. We could all see this new ship forming, and we supported it very much. However, I didn't talk much during the activities and nothing made me happy. I decided that I should go to sleep earlier tonight.

After the games, we planned to watch a movie. Suho asked us what we would like to watch, and no one had any good ideas. I sat on the edge of the sofa, next to Sehun. I staring at a blank spot on the wall and dozed off as the others talked about the movies.

"Mi-hyun, you should pick a movie, you barely spoke today!" Baekhyun exclaimed.

I was surprised by his sudden words and jumped when he called my name. "What?"

"Are you okay?" His questioned and looked at me carefully.

For a moment I didn't know what to say. My mind wouldn't process. "Yeah, yeah I am perfectly fine, I think I'm just a little tired," I answered and smiled at him.  

Baekhyun shrugged and didn't say anything else, but Suho spoke up next. "Are you sure? If there is anything you want us to know, or need support with, we are all here for you. We are all friends, so don't be afraid to tell us."

I looked at him and debated in my mind whether I should tell them about what Luhan did or not. Sehun gave me a light nudge on the shoulder and smiled warmly. I swallowed and decided to let my troubles out. 

"So, um..." I started and tried to think of the best way to phrase my words. "When I went home to change, Luhan was also home. He was home early and stayed in my bedroom. So when I found him there, he confessed to me, and then tried to..." I paused and looked up to meet the expecting gazes. "He tried to ually assault me..."

"What the hell? Was he screwed in the head?" Kai exclaimed in shock. The others also went wide eyed and gasped.

"Yeah, why didn't you tell me? Gosh, I knew something about you was off after you got on the car," Mina also said.

"Sorry guys. I just didn't want to ruin the party for you guys." I messaged my temple. "Luhan was drunk. I'm sure he wasn't thinking straight and he didn't mean what he said. He was just blabbing non sense. I doubt he'll even remember what he did tomorrow," I said in my lightest voice as possible and tried to make it sound like nothing important.

Suho gestured for the others to hush and stared at me seriously. "Don't say that Mi-hyun. Drunk people are always honest about what they say, and about their feelings. Perhaps this matter shouldn't regarded to lightly," he said.

I sighed. "If what you are saying is correct, then I have no idea how to deal with this. If Luhan does love me like he said, then I'll have to hurt him. There is no way I could date him. We are in the same family, and I see him as nothing but a little brother."

"So are you saying that you don't ever have feelings for him?" Mina asked. "Like, you've never thought he was attractive, and you've never felt any sort of love for him? Your heart has never raced when you two were close?"

"Well yeah, when he makes me mad my heart races in anger..." I said and chuckled, getting a little embarrassed by this topic. But in the back of my head, I went through all my memory with him and searched to see if I was ever attracted to Luhan. To my horror, I have thought Luhan was attractive a number of times,  and my heart has definitely raced around him before.

"Well, you don't seem so sure about having no feelings for him," Mina said as she watched me for a moment. 

I shoved her playfully and made an expression of disgust. "He is my brother, I can't be attracted to him," I insisted.

Kai's eyebrows rose, "But you two are not blood related at all. In fact, he is Chinese, and you are Korean. Therefore, there is nothing wrong between your relationship with him if you two ever date."

Sehun, who sat next to me, kept quiet and watched me intensely. I felt his gaze on me and my heart raced a little. "Come on guys, after what Luhan did to me, I won't be attracted to him, not for a while," I said and they nodded.

After the conversation regarding my brother and I, we settled down on a movie and watched it.

Throughout the movie, the distance between Sehun and I grew closer and closer until our shoulders touched. When I realized that we were so close, I jumped a little and looked at him. He stared back at me and his eyes flashed. My heart pounded in my chest as the handsome boy sent me a warm smile.

To my surprise, Sehun then place his hand on top of mine. Our fingers intertwined and my face went warm. My entire mind was concentrated on our contact. This was the second time he took my hands. Since when were we able to hold hands freely without trouble? I felt happy being next to him, the boy of my dreams. 

When the movie was finished, it was already 3:00 am. We decided to get some rest and headed up stairs to the second floor. The boys slept in Sehun's room while Mina and I stayed in the guest room. I went to wash up first and came back to the room in my pajamas. Mina went next and told me she would be back a little later and I could sleep first if I wanted to. 

Sitting in the middle of the queen size bed, I took down my ponytail and let me hair ran free. Before I could do anything else, someone knocked on the door. I quickly got off the bed and went to answer. 

Sehun stood in front of the door and I quickly let him in. The boy greeted me and took a seat on the bed I sat next to him. "How are you feeling now, Mi-hyun?" He asked.

"I am fine, thank you. Although things are throwing me off guard quite often these days," I responded and Sehun nodded. "Don't you think Mina and Kai are so cute together?" I asked and chuckled.

Sehun nodded in agreement. "Yep, they are an adorable couple. In fact, those two are probably making out right now," he joked and I laughed. "Just kidding, just kidding. But those two have definitely been close."

"Mina's in your room?" I questioned.

"Yep. She came a moment ago and wanted to speak with Kai. We all excused ourselves and left them alone. Actually, I wanted to talk to you right now as well," Sehun said.

"Really? What is it?"

Sehun rubbed the back of his neck and looked at me awkwardly. "When you said that you had no feelings for Luhan at all, was it true? I mean you don't love him? Not even a little bit?"

"Why are you asking me this? I don't know what to say," I replied and laughed.

Sehun smiled too. "Ha ha, I guess I'm just curious."

"Curious?" I looked at him and moved closer.

Sehun looked into my eyes and smiled before turning away. "Well... To be perfectly honest with you, I don't like being confused. I really want to know exactly how you feel. When I heard that you might have feelings for Luhan, even the tiniest bit, I couldn't help but feel apprehensive and uneasy. I couldn't bare the thought that someone else might steal your heart..."

My heart pounded as I listened to those word that came from Sehun's mouth. My love for him was growing even greater. "Does that mean you still like me?"

"What do you think?" Sehun retorted with a smile.

I blushed and looked away from him. Sehun put his arm around my shoulder and pulled me closer. "Mi-hyun, although things look terrible right now, I promise it will get better. If anything happens, tell me, and I'll be there for you. Trust me, everything is fine."

I was shy and  my voice was a little weak. I nodded and placed my head against him. "Thank you so much, Sehun."

Sehun's words made me feel a lot better and more secure. I didn't worry so much after the comforting (yet embarrassing) conversation. After Sehun took his leave, I went to bed before Mina came back. That girl was probably having fun with Kai. Those two lovebirds were so adorable. 

My eyelids could barely stay open and I snuggled around in the warm blankets. Immediately after I settled down, I fell asleep on the big soft bed.
