“you’re name is Xiao Lu, but why you always wrote LuHan in the end of your sketch?” SeHun asked

“hmm… it’s my… stage name?”

SeHun chuckled “you’re not an idol. you don’t need a stage name” he ruffled Xiao Lu’s hair

“i just like it… call me LuHan from now”

“but, Xia-“

“don’t” he gave his palm to shut SeHun up “call me with that name again. i hate that name”

“Xi-“

Xiao Lu bring his hand to cover his ear and that’s enough for SeHun to understand that now Xiao Lu only wanted to be called as LuHan. and by the time went by, SeHun found out why LuHan hates his original name. and SeHun also knew two things that LuHan hates to hear the most: his original name and his ex-boyfriend’s name.

by the time went by too, SeHun started to develop a special feeling to LuHan. he confessed to LuHan but LuHan didn’t accept …. yet. LuHan was still afraid to be hurt again if he love again. SeHun could understand that, thus he decided to stay with LuHan. and help LuHan to move on
