A/N:

All these rumours about EXO disbanding is already driving me nuts, it's getting annoying but what can we do? Are they false? Are they true? No one knows for sure... all we get are statements and it doesn't entirely reassure us. Let's just respect all the members' choices but hopefully, HOPEFULLY, they can work together again. They may not be the 12 EXO members we all knew but maybe, the 12 friends that have bonded through all those years. It is sad, really sad and to be honest I'm not one to care about celebrity problems but I've been a fan for a while and it really hit me when all these rumours keep popping up. They've dealt with training, all those crazy fans, being invaded in their privacy, and other things... and honestly I just can't help but feel sorry for them. They give their best on stage but behind all those charismatic performances, they are all still humans. There are times where I feel so bad and wish I could just hug them and tell them: "It's okay".

Here's a story for you.

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

"Just get out! I don't need you here!" 

It was the most scariest thing Ally has ever seen her boyfriend in anger. He always had this bright and mischievous aura around him every single time but the moment she surprised him during their practice for their first concert, everything went downhill. He even threw the cake, that she personally baked and asked Kyungsoo's advice for, on the practice room floor. The cake was completely ruined... the same way her feelings were. It's as if he just threw her away like that. 

"What-- Sehun, why are you--" She began to speak and forgot all about the cake on the floor but Sehun just ignored her and threw his snapback on the floor that made Ally flinch. She shivered in fear and jumped at Jongdae's touch. He puts an arm around her and led her out, tears uncontrollably falling from her eyes but she can't help but turn to look at her boyfriend who was already sitting on the floor with the rest of the members watching him. None of them bothered to calm him down because he actually had a reason to be angry and they all understand. He's the maknae and although he may come off as a playful and sometimes be conceited towards his hyungs, he still had a soft heart.

Jongdae and Ally made their way in the company's cafeteria. It was quite empty as it was already lunch time that reassured Jongdae that it was safe for him and Ally to be here. He wouldn't want any reporters to bombard their privacy, especially after the rumours came out. 

Jongdae bought two ice coffees for the both of them and sat down face to face with Ally, who was still crying. Her eyes were already red and he would've laughed at the way she looks right now because of her snot running down her nose but he's obviously smart enough not to. Jongdae has grabbed a few napkins and handed it to her in which she took and wiped her tears. 

"Look, I think... I think it would be best if you leave him alone for a while." Ally looked up, confused at his suggestion. 

"Well, I guess you haven't heard but uhm..." Jongdae took a sip of his drink and swallowed slowly before he looked at Ally. It hurts him too and he thinks Sehun is going a little too far but honestly, he had a right to be mad. Everyone worked so hard to be where they are now and it all takes one person to ruin it all. 

"Kris... Kris hyung quit EXO" Jongdae said, his voice soft... full of sadness instead of anger. He made sure he didn't sound upset to Ally because she's already seen enough for today. Ally stared at him, wide-eyed. 

"What do you mean, he quit? How..." Jongdae shrugged as he leaned back on his seat with his arms folded over his chest. 

"No one knows. We haven't seen him since yesterday either. He told no one... he backstabbed all of us."

Ally blinked as she continues to process what Jongdae had just told her. She swore in her life that Kris was perfectly fine last week when she came to visit the dorms. He was even playing a game with Tao and helped prepare lunch with Kyungsoo. For the past year she has been with Sehun, she saw how each member was like amongst each other. There is no way he could just quit like that, no way he would betray s that he should be calling brothers. 

Ally quickly got up from her seat and started walking towards the Exit.

"Ally! Where are you going?!" Jongdae called out to her but before he could even reach her, she has already made it in her car and left. She pulls out her phone and starts dialing Kris' number.

"Joonmyeon-ah, did you eat yet?"

"Stop dancing overnight, Jongin-ah! Watch, you'll never make it to Inkigayo awake!"

"Ally, why did you even date this punk?"

"Don't forget, I will be the godfather of your children!"

"Damn you, Kris Wu. You better pick up." Ally hissed on the phone and she knew she'd get a ticket for talking on the phone but she didn't care. She needs to resolve this before all the members suffer and Sehun ends up beating himself up. She gulped at the thought, suddenly remembering Sehun's face when he yelled at her. 

The phone rang

Two rings...

Three...

Four...

Fi--

"Ally?" Kris' voice startled her that she quickly stepped on the pedal at Red light. 

"Kris! Where the hell are you?!"

"Wh--Ally, why--"

"You have any idea what you've done?! Your members think you've backstabbed them!" Ally yelled making Kris pause in silence. Both waited for the other to say something but there was nothing but silence. Kris hesitated. Ally was the scariest girl he has ever met when you've gone on her bad side and he was sure as hell he had gone to that side. 

"So you heard..." 

"Hell yes! What is this, Kris?! What are you doing?!"

"Ally, look... it's between me and the company. The members got nothing to do with it." Ally has calmed herself down and sighs as the light turned green. She decides to turn to a plaza and parked there before she gets caught by the cops.

"Then tell the guys that, Kris. Don't let them hanging. They think you betrayed them. S--Sehun's gone mad... and it scares me. I don't know what to do..." Ally says, her voice began to quiver at the thought of her boyfriend. Kris sighs.

"I... I will fix everything first. Just trust me, okay?"

"But Kris... the guys--"

"Sorry, Ally."

And with that, Kris hangs up. Ally was about to call again but a knock on her door made her look to her side and see eleven members crowding around her car. Her eyes widened when she realized that none of them were wearing any disguises. She rolled her window down and starts scolding them.

"Who cares? We got worried when Jongdae said you ran off" Baekhyun said, trying to cover himself with his sweater hoodie that did not help him at all. She sighs and rolled her eyes at them.

"I'm a big girl, guys. I can manage."

"No, you could've gotten yourself hurt!" Sehun pushed himself in between his hyungs and leaned towards her, their faces just inches apart that made Ally's heart skip. 

"Why do you care?!" Ally yelled at him making Sehun jump. This time they were even. 

Sehun leaned back and stars walking away. Ally thought he was leaving her, again, but suddenly she heard the passenger door open and close. She turned and find Sehun sitting next to her; "What did I tell you about locking your door?"

"Get out of my car, Sehun!" She says pushing him but he wouldn't budge. 

"Err... we will leave you guys alone." Jongin said and the guys started to leave and got in the van one by one. 

"Look, I know I overreacted" Sehun started that made Ally stop.

"I... I just can't accept the fact that he left without a word. What happened to 'We are one'? Did he just think it's all some publicity strategy of some sort?" Ally didn't bother to say anything and let him continue.

"How... how can he just go? Does he not care anymore? Or... was this all just an act that he played aand he got tired of it? I... I'm so angry, Ally! I'm so angry at him! He betrayed us... he..." Ally saw the tears in Sehun's eyes and that's when she wraps her arms around him, his head lay on her shoulder and she felt hot tears drop on her skin. 

"I hate him. I hate him!" Sehun's voice shook with tears that Ally, too, started tearing up. She can feel the tension build from his body that got her to embrace him tighter. 

"It's okay, Sehun. I'm sure he has a good reason... just..."

"Just trust me, okay?"

But can they? Can they trust him? Ally had a gut feeling that Kris will come back and she's sure of it. He can't just leave like that. He will come back, for sure. She knows it.

Just please... please, Kris. Please don't break my trust in you.

"Be strong, Sehun-ah... I'm here for you..."

The two stayed like that for a while and as soon as Sehun has calmed himself, Ally started to drive back to the company and drop Sehun for practice. Sehun gave her a quick peck on the forehead and repetitively apologized for his actions earlier but Ally just smiled at him and told him to work hard in practice. He hesitated to go in but Ally has already started driving away. Before Ally takes a left turn, she saw a tall figure standing right across SM's building with his hands in his pockets. He stood there, frozen in place like a statue that made Ally stare at him. He had sunglassess on and a cap that she could not recognize him at all but when he lifts up his head a bit, she swore in her life that he was staring right at her. 

And that's when it hit her, his smile. The smile that she recognizes. 

"Kris?" She asked herself but when the car behind her honked, she quickly moved her car and stare at her rearview mirror in which the guy's reflection was still in view. He still looked at her drive away, a smile still appeared on his face... not a smirk, not a sly smile, but a genuine one. A genuine smile that assured her that everything is going to be alright.

"Just trust me, okay?"

"I trust you... I really do and I hope you come back soon"
