*2 weeks later*

            “What’s it like outside?” Minseok asked as he lay down on the grass fresh with morning mildew.

            Luhan rolled over onto his stomach, the wetness of the grass coating his sweatshirt in speckles of dew. Luhan brought Minseok’s hands closer to his. ‘It is sunny, only a few clouds.’

            Minseok smiled sheepishly, “What else?”    

            Luhan glanced around the small property, ‘Not much it’s pretty ugly out here.’

            Minseok bubbled out a laugh, “I’m sure it’s not that bad.”

            ‘Trust me it is.’

            Minseok sighed and pulled his hands away, a playful smile coating his face, “You’re impossible.”

            Luhan flicked Minseok on the base of his neck. He scooted closer to Minseok until they were hip to hip. Luhan rested his cheek on his arm. He draped an arm over Minseok’s chest, his hand rising and falling with the beat of Minseok’s heart.

            A habit Luhan as accumulated when the two lay in bed late at night together. Luhan had found it soothing, and yet oddly endearing, feeling the beat of Minseok’s heart as he drifts off into slumber in the protection of Luhan’s arms.

            Minseok reached up and laced his fingers with Luhan’s; his thumb softly ran over the crevice of Luhan’s thumb and palm. The two lapsed into one of their usual silences, something the pair have grown used to.

            Luhan smiled fondly at Minseok, taking note of the way the sun glistens upon his milky skin. He let out a small wheeze when Minseok flinched away from a leaf that fell from the branch above. Luhan gingerly picked the leaf off of Minseok’s nose and flung it away.

            “I heard Jongdae talk to you this morning,” Minseok leaned closer into Luhan’s side, “She, or he, I’m still not positive, but anyway Jongdae said you’re first doctor appointment is this afternoon.”

            Luhan tapped Minseok’s hands, signaling for him to put them up ‘Yes after lunch.’

            Minseok nodded, “Now that I think about it, I’ve never asked you how you became mute.”

            Luhan placed a soft peck on Minseok’s wrist, ‘When I was little I had pneumonia, it damaged my throat and vocal chords, over the years my vocal cords grew worse and I had to get surgery to try and repair what was left.’

            A sense of hope washed over Minseok, “So there is a chance you can recover your voice?”

            ‘Yes, but in my case the chances are low.’

            Minseok turned his hand and sloppily kissed Luhan on his jaw, “No need to be negative, if there’s a chance that’s good enough reason to believe.

            Luhan rolled his eyes and pecked Minseok’s bottom lip, nipping at it lightly.

            “Gah, you two show enough PDA as it is, can’t you take it down a notch?” A third party voice was added to the mix.

            Luhan glanced over to be met with a pair of tall thin legs.

            “Hello Channie.” Minseok waved up at the sky.

            Chanyeol playfully swatted Minseok’s hand and sat down besides his friend, grimacing at the grass stains appearing on his white nurse’s uniform.

            “Is there something I may help you with? It wasn’t like I was busy-“ Minseok sweetly asked Chanyeol.

            Chanyeol pushed Minseok’s side with his foot, “Is that how you are going to be now? All high and mighty because you have a boyfriend?”

            Minseok thought for a moment, “Yes.”

            ‘Such an idiot.’ Luhan dropped his head on Minseok’s chest, shaking it back and forth in disagreement.

            Chanyeol nudged his friend again grumbling to himself. Minseok smiled innocently at him and Luhan poked Minseok’s side.

            “Always has been a punk.” Chanyeol muttered.

            Minseok gasped, “I’m your elder! How dare you talk to me like that?”

            Chanyeol smirked, “With that baby-face I would have thought you were a child.”

            Minseok’s hand flew to his face, pinching at his cheeks, “I do not have a child’s face!”

            Chanyeol sniggered, “Yeah and how would you know?”

            Minseok continued to poke and prod his face, “Lulu-“

            “Lulu?” Chanyeol laughed, clutching his sides, “Sounds like something you name your pet poodle.”

            “-do I have a baby face?” Minseok whined.

            ‘Yes but it’s a very cute baby face.’ Luhan nodded.

            By the sounds of Chanyeol’s laughter increasing Minseok knew Luhan agreed with the nurse. He swatted at Luhan and tried pulling away from his grasp, “First of all how dare you?”

            Luhan wheezed and Chanyeol sniggered again.

            “Secondly I do not have a baby-face, I am a very handsome young man thank you very much. Now if you will excuse me I will be leaving.” Minseok grabbed his walking stick and tried desperately to escape from his boyfriend’s clutches.

            Luhan wheezed loudly, which Minseok stopped to let out a small cue before struggling on, “I don’t care how cute your laugh is, you two are bullies.”

            Luhan yanked Minseok; his back was flushed up against Luhan’s chest. Luhan wrapped his around Minseok’s waist holding him tightly to he can’t run off. Chanyeol watched the couple with amusement in his large eyes.  

            “This is violating my personal rights.” Minseok declared, pinching lightly at Luhan’s legs.

            Chanyeol rolled his eyes, “This isn’t America.”

            Luhan wheezed again, placing small soft kisses along the back of Minseok’s neck. He pressed his smile against Minseok’s shoulder. Minseok gave in with a pout and grumble of curses directed towards his boyfriend and best friend.

            Chanyeol shook his head, “I don’t know how Luhan puts up with you.”

            Minseok leaned back against his boyfriend, “Because I’m fabulous.”

            Luhan gave Chanyeol a look, ‘You’ve got to be kidding me?’

            Chanyeol looked back and mouthed, ‘He’s your boyfriend.’

            Luhan glared, ‘He’s your best friend.’

            Chanyeol smirked.

            “Are you two done having a moment? It’s getting boring.” Minseok faked a yawn.

            Chanyeol stood up, “I came out to tell you lunch if ready and to remind Luhan to go straight to Dr. Kim after lunch.”

            “We’ll be in a few, thanks Channie.” Minseok gave him two thumbs up and a smile.

            “Come in soon I don’t want to come back out here and see more than I did before.”

            Minseok went to move but Luhan held him back and tapped his hands. Minseok held them up for, ‘You asked me why I was mute, so tell me why you are blind?’

            Minseok shrugged, “Not a very interesting story, I was diagnosed with cancer a few months ago. Easiest way to remove the cancer was to remove my eyes. I’ve been here for the past two months recovering. I’ve still got about a month to go before I can leave.”

            Luhan had been so wrapped up in the moment that he forgot that eventually both of them would be leaving the facility, if the meeting goes well today Luhan may leave sooner than Minseok.

            As if sensing his boyfriend’s thoughts Minseok kissed the side of Luhan’s neck and squeezed his hand, “Let’s not think about it right now and let’s go eat. You can tell me all about your appointment after.”

            Luhan gave Minseok one last peck on the lips and moved to help Minseok up. The two walked back to the facility with their hands intertwined between them.

*Thank you again to everyone who has shown support towards this story with the recent events that have unfolded. I'm so happy that so many fans are supporting Luhan and his lawsuit. Exo12 will forever be in my heart and nothing will ever change that ^.^

On the other note, this chapter will most likely only have one chapter left. And no that is not because of what happened, my plan all a long was to write just a short cute xiuhan story. I've decided the ending of it weeks before there were even rumors. ^.^ <3
