Foreword

"Xi Luhan is a already a college senior,during his whole life as a student...he only stayed in the shadows. But now he wanted to EXIST.
Oh Sehun should've been a freshman in college, during the past years of his school life....he was everyone's light. But all he wanted now was to CEASE TO EXIST.
Luhan didn't believe in things such as fate, if there was a phenomena that could explain why people meet, it must be because of GRAVITY
Sehun believed that his life is already pre-determined, people meet because it's their fate..but for him there is only one person that is his DESTINY.

Luhan wanted restart his life and to forget about everything, he wanted to run away, he was already tired of being a shadow. He has been the wallflower that no one knows, however he see's everyone and has always been observant of others. He was always alone, or rather he would distance himself from everybody. He knew he was different, he didn't want to trust anyone because he was afraid of making bonds. Bonds that might break one day, he can't bare the pain of having your trust be broken. He understands himself, but he knows that other people can't understand him. No matter how much you explain,It has always been like that people can't really understand others completely. That's why he choose to be a silent shadow...only observing,existing but ignored.
 
" SOMETIMES IT'S BETTER TO KEEP SILENT THAN TELL OTHERS AROUND YOU JUST HOW YOU FEEL. BECAUSE IT HURTS BADLY WHEN YOU KNOW IN YOUR HEART THAT THEY CAN HEAR YOUR WORDS BUT THEY CANNOT UNDERSTAND."


Sehun wanted to remember, He wanted the memory to haunt him.Although deep inside he wanted to run, but not escape but he  knew that he can't run away from destiny, he just wanted to breathe again. He was that kind of guy that everyone wanted to be, everyone knew him, everyone liked him. However he was unobservant of others, even now.specially now. He doesn't see anyone else for his life always revolved on who he believed was his destiny,Kai. They were bestfriends, their parents were close friends, since he and Kai were young, he already knew that Kai was his soulmate. They started out as friends and they eventually became lovers during the senior year of highschool. Or that's how it used to be. He is in pain, but he wanted pain. This was the consequence, this is his lesson.

" SOME LESSONS ARE ONLY DELIVERED IN THE FORM OF PAIN. "

Sehun was once again in the bus stop, waiting for nothing . It was already very late at night but he was still there, staring blankly at space. 
Luhan suddenly arrives panting, catching his breath. He wanted to runaway from home, it wasn't like a home after all. It was only a place were he slept and ate.
There were a few people waiting for the last bus, it was headed to Daegu. Luhan's destination was Seoul, he wasn't aware that it was the last bus. He stayed in bus stop patiently waiting for another one that was never going to come.


2 Hours had passed, the thunder roared...the moonlight dim under the gloomy clouds. The rain pouring like angry tears.

Luhan was still patiently standing, but his legs were aching. He did not want to stop, he already started it...He wouldn't let the rain stop him.
Sehun who was always observant, noticed the boy that was standing for two hours in the same position. He saw his doe eyes blink repeatedly while staring at an empty space were the bus usually stops. Sehun can tell that the pretty boy was about to cry.

"Do you believe in destiny?" Sehun asked

Luhan screamed in fright, he was surprised to have someone talk to him so suddenly. He wasn't used to it after all. He didn't look at the direction of the voice but he remained in his position.
He was afraid of meeting the stranger's eyes, and seeing his face. "no" Luhan replied almost like a whisper.What is he doing? He wanted to be seen right? 

"cold!" The stranger hissed.

Luhan turned to the direction of the voice, He saw a handsome young man probably younger than him, He looked tired but nonetheless still good looking. He was holding his cheek. It must have been because of the rain. 

"I don't believe in destiny, but heaven does exist for me.."

"A RAINDROP LANDING ON YOUR CHEEK IS A KISS FROM SOMEONE IN HEAVEN WHO IS WATCHING OVER YOU." 
 
Luhan said smiling like he remembered a nice memory. He realized that he was talking to much, because the stranger was looking at him with a questioning look.

"i'm sorry i should stop" Luhan appoligized while looking at the other way, turning beet red because of embarassment.

"i've noticed you waiting for 2 hours....the bus isn't coming anymore" but the stranger continued to talk to him.

"ah..uhm...well.." Luhan was feeling uneasy and fidgeting, Did he really notice that Luhan was standing there for 2 hours? 
Luhan was turning his head around like he was looking for a way to escape.

Sehun, felt like talking to the pretty boy. For the first time since forever...he felt relieved in his presence. 
The way he fidgets and acts, as if he was afraid of Sehun. Was truly opposite of Kai.
He smiled at Luhan,and unconciously he outstreched his hand.


"My Name is Oh Sehun"

Luhan was more than shocked than ever, but something told him to take Sehun's hand.


 
"I-im Xi Luhan"


Luhan didn't believe in destiny but talking to Sehun felt so right, Sehun believed that it was truly not meant to be..but he felt a sense of freedom.
That night started it all.

Not meant to be, under the same sky..with the raindrops falling down in the background.

In that Bus Stop.

To defy destiny.

As a fellow contestant, I'll be supporting your fic too^^ (Just on my opinion): But you don't exactly need to be making a long foreword, it's just there to give the readers a sneak peek of the fic then you can do the rest of it later on when chapter 1 begins^^ (Again, just on my opinion)
