"Yo Hun."

Sehun looks up at the figure leaning down towards him, the light from the sun shining against it.

Sehun can't see the person's face, but it's easy to know who it is.

There has only been one.

"You're later than usual Lu."

"What. Missed me already? How cute."

It has been barely 2 hours after they have met that day.

"...Where were you?"

Luhan ignores Sehun's question and makes himself comfortable on the ground.

There's nothing wrong with teasing Sehun a little, is there?

"Have you eaten?"

"...What's with that? Answer my question Lu."

Sehun shuffles closer, his body pressing onto Luhan's.

"I was just busy Hun."

Luhan simply replies, shrugging, fighting to keep the grin off his face.

"Doing what?"

Sehun frowns as he hears Luhan's answer, but Luhan's just like that, around him at least.

But he doesn't like it that he doesn't know what Luhan was doing to be late to their meeting.

Luhan finally turns to look at Sehun, and gives a soft, twinkling laugh.

"Getting you this, dummy."

Sehun's face brightens up immediately upon seeing his favourite drink, and of course, upon hearing Luhan's laugh.

"Bubble tea!"

"What a child."

"Yah Lu! I heard that!"

Sehun pouts a little as he enjoys his drink.

Luhan just laughs again, reaching to take his own bubble tea.

"Technically you'll always be a child Hun."

"Well you're no better than me, you who looks and acts like a child too."

Sehun scoffs, but a playful smile appears on his lips.

Luhan shoves Sehun lightly and doesn't reply, his smile is unnaturally strained.

The smile on Sehun's face drops as he senses something wrong with Luhan.

"Is something wrong Lu?"

Normally Luhan will retort or hit Sehun, but on rare occasions will Luhan not reply.

And those rare occasions were never pretty ones.

Something must be wrong.

"...I'm so tired of life Hun.."

Luhan closes his eyes and breathes in deep, feeling the soft, warm breeze.

Sehun widens his eyes in panic and grips Luhan's shoulder, turning him around to face himself.

"Lu, you must live your life while you still can!"

Luhan opens his eyes and snorts and shakes away Sehun's grip.

"What life. A life where I have to put on a mask every single day, being someone who's not me. What life is that."

Sehun opens his mouth to speak, but Luhan continues.

"It's all fake Hun, it's all fake. I don't know if I'll be able to continue this anymore..."

"What about your friends Lu?"

Sehun says softly, his hands are back on Luhan's shoulder, he's holding it gently this time.

"I've no friends. All they want is my money, looks, popularity and grades. None of them wants me for me."

Luhan pauses a little.

"Sometimes I wonder why I continue with this kind of life."

"Lu-"

"But then I thought of you."

And Sehun stops whatever he's wanting to say.

"You're the only thing that keeps me going you know. And even if I die, there's no guarantee that I'll be able to see you, so I don't want to risk it."

Luhan smiles, a small sincere smile this time, and Sehun feels his heart jump.

He wants so much to just blurt out his feelings right now, but he konws he can't.

Not now. Not ever.

Luhan and him.

Rich, popular and smart Luhan who everyone notices.

Poor, dull and boring Sehun who no one can notice.

They are of different worlds, and it isn't possible for them ot be together.

Besides, Luhan just sees me as a really special and close friend.

"What do you think will happen if I have a different face? Or a different background all together?"

Luhan's question pulls him out of his thoughts.

"Then you wouldn't have met me."

Sehun answers seriously.

"Well. That will just be sad."

Luhan laughs and wraps his arm around Sehun's neck, pulling Sehun towards himself.

He smiles even wider as he feels the familiar chilly, tingling feeling.

Luhan wishes Sehun can be his, but it's not possible.

He feels Sehun easing up slowly and wrapping his arm around Luhan's smaller frame.

It's good enough that he's here with me.

"I'll live for you Sehun."

Sehun just rubs Luhan gently on the back.

"Live for yourself too Luhan."

Luhan sighs as he stands outside the school gate, looking back at the rooftop.

He knows Sehun's still there.

So he turns and waves.

He can just see Sehun smiling and waving back.

Humming a tune light-heartedly, Luhan walks on the pavement towards his house, hands tugged into his pockets.

Luhan remembers him teaching Sehun to sing a favourite song of his.

Laughing internally at the memories of Sehun's cracked voice, Luhan grins and shakes his head.

"You're so precious Hun."

Luhan mutturs just as he steps onto the road.

Sehun stares wide-eyed at Luhan.

And Luhan stares back nonchalantly.

"Aren't you supposed to be in class?!"

"Yeap."

"Then why aren't you there?!"

Luhan's lips tug downwards.

"You don't like me here?"

"No! But why are you here?!"

"What's wrong with me being here Hun?"

Sehun grips his hair in frustration, he really hates times like this when he wants an answer from Luhan.

"But Lu! Your image! You can't just skip lessons like this!"

"How long have you been around me Hun? You really can't notice something is different?"

Luhan grins and places his palm under his chin.

"Different? The only thing different around here is that you are here!"

Sehun cries in frustration.

He knows how important it is for Luhan to be the perfect student in school.

Who knows what his devil parents will do if he doesn't?

"I'm dragging you to your class Lu."

Sehun reaches out and tries to grab Luhan's hands.

But all he touches is nothing.

That's weird. I want to grab his hands, but why can't I?

"That's because I don't want to let you grab me."

Luhan answers Sehun's unspoken question.

"H-How?"

Sehun's mind is muddled, his head is spinning.

"Un-unless you're..."

Dead.

And Luhan nods his head, his hands reaching out to touch Sehun's now.

"Yes. Unless I'm like you."

Sehun stares at Luhan in shock again.

"You... Lu you didn't...?"

"No! It was an accident which caused me my life. I didn't commit suicide."

Luhan quickly denies whatever thoughts which are running in Sehun's brain.

And Sehun breathes out.

"That's a relief."

Luhan chuckles and pulls Sehun close.

"Yes it is."

Sehun hugs Luhan tight.

"Finally I can tell you this Hun."

Sehun tries to pull away to be able to look at Luhan but Luhan just holds him in place.

Luhan shifts himself a little such that his lips is near Sehun's ear.

"I..."

Sehun shivers.

"I love you Sehun."

Time seems to stop for the both of them.

Luhan held his breath as he nuzzles into Sehun's neck, waiting for an answer.

"I love you too Luhan."

Luhan lets out his breath and finally pulls away.

"I've been waiting since forever."

Sehun caresses Luhan's cheek.

"Me too, Lu. You have no idea, how much..."

Sehun looks into Luhan's eyes, words failing him as he does so.

"Trust me, I do."

Luhan's eyes twinkle.

"I feel so alive Hun, I finally feel so alive."

With that, Luhan places his lips on Sehun's. 

And Sehun, without a moment of hesitation, kisses back.

It isn't moments after they have broke apart when Sehun speaks up.

"But you're not alive Lu. We, are not alive."

Luhan places his hand onto Sehun's and smiles, his smile so light, so free of any burden.

"But the thing is, we're living."
