CHAPTER THREE

Sehun nudged Tao's head to make him scoot over. Tao opened his eyes, but didn't move. He was litteraly sprawled on the sofa. 
Sehun sighed dramatically. "Fine. If you don't move, then I'll just sit on top of you." Tao groaned, but sat up. "Goddammit! Why do you have to be so mean? You know how tired I am! I mean, just look at my poor, tired, little face." He pouted. Sehun looked adoringly at him and patted his knee. "Your face always look like that." Tao laughed. "Yeah, that's true.

Tears started to fall from Sehun's eyes. "I know that. But.. Can't he just make an exception? For us? I just want to be happy. I just want you to be happy. Don't you want to be with me? As my boyfriend?" 
Sehun pulled away to wipe Tao's tears from his face. 
Tao sobbed. "Of course.......I really....want to. You don't know how much. But I can't do this to Kris hyung. We both know how much he suffered. He doesn't want me to go through that. Especially not now."
Tao stood up and Sehun's cheek. "I guess our timing just ."
