‘Chang, what is this?’ Luhan said, holding up a bra in his hand. Chang who was picking clothes out of his closet turned around and his eyes widened. Both Luhan and Chang did not say anything for a few seconds. ‘It’s called a bra?’ Chang said, shrugging. ‘I know what it is called,’ Luhan said, frowning,’ why was it here under your bed?’ ‘Maybe it’s my mom’s. I don’t know…’ Luhan looked at the bra, carefully. It was a C-cup bright pink push up bra with lace and tiny bows on it. To describe in one word, ty. What kind of mom wears this? Luhan wondered. He opened his mouth to say something but Chang cut in between, reading Luhan’s mind. ‘Can we please not talk about my mom’s bra?’ Chang said, wincing,’ it’s creeping me out.’ Luhan shrugged and threw it in the trash. He had bigger worries in his life than thinking about Chang’s mom’s ty choice of underwear. Chang had to leave for Busan again that weekend. He and Luhan barely spent any time with each other. Luhan was not very happy with Chang being away almost every weekend. Since Chang was leaving the next day, he figured he could at least help him pack. ‘You said it would be 4-5 days a month,’ Luhan protested,’ but you’ve barely been here for any of the weekends. You are there most of the weekdays too.’ ‘I’m sorry baby,’ Chang said,’ they have just set up the plant in there so it will be a little hectic now in the beginning.’ ‘You have to make up to me big time,’ Luhan said, sulking. ‘Yes, of course,’ Chang said and took Luhan’s face in his hands,’ I can make up to you right now if you want.’ He kissed Luhan softly as he pushed him to lie on the bed. They were in the middle of their make out session when Chang’s phone suddenly rang. ‘Ignore it,’ Luhan whispered. ‘I can’t,’ Chang said, to Luhan’s disappointment. He took his phone and went out of the room. Luhan sat up on the bed and sighed. His and Chang’s relation had been going through a difficult time lately. Chang was mad at Luhan when he ditched him and his parents the night he was with Sehun. Luhan tried to explain him the situation but Chang waved it off saying,’ you better be careful of that pest Sehun.’ ‘It was my decision not to come,’ Luhan clarified. ‘Still,’ Chang said, irritably,’ that guy gets under my skin somehow.’ Luhan knew that Chang was overreacting about Sehun. But was Sehun really attracted to Luhan? Was he really trying to withdraw him from Chang? It didn’t matter to Luhan. He wasn’t ready to give up on Chang yet. No, not anytime soon. Luhan decided he was going to do everything he could to patch his relation with Chang without losing a sense of who he was and what he wanted. Chang came back inside the room and placed the phone on a table. He returned back to packing instead of going back to Luhan who was still waiting for him on his bed. ‘Hey,’ Luhan called out. ‘Hmm?’ ‘Come back here,’ Luhan said, playfully. ‘Let’s not do this today, Lu,’ Chang said, folding his clothes,’ I’m really tired.’ ‘But you were in the mood just few minutes ago,’ Luhan said, complaining. ‘Yeah not anymore,’ Chang said, grumpily,’ thanks to my boss’ phone call just now.’ Luhan sat there silently looking at him pack. ‘Any problem?’ ‘Nope,’ Chang said, sulking,’ why would there be a problem? He thinks I’m superman after all. I can handle everything.’ Luhan laughed and Chang looked at him with surprise. ‘You should have at least said Batman,’ Luhan said, teasing him,’ Superman is simply lame.’ Chang couldn’t help a smile. He moved towards Luhan and kissed him again. Luhan tried to pull him back to bed but Chang shook his head. ‘Still not in the mood,’ Chang said, ‘sorry.’ Luhan made a frustrated noise but did not push him. ‘So what do you do on the weekends in Busan?’ Luhan asked. ‘Work,’ Chang said, putting his clothes in the suitcase,’ no weekends for me.’ ‘Hmmm…’ An idea struck Luhan’s brain and he jumped up. ‘How about I come with you this weekend?’ Luhan said, excited. ‘What?’ Chang looked up, bewildered. ‘Yes, it’ll be so awesome,’ Luhan said, grinning,’ you can work and I can go around the city. Maybe you can take Saturday night off and we can go out for a romantic dinner or a club!’ ‘Umm…’ ‘Come on, it’ll be fun,’ Luhan said, convincingly,’ it’ll be a good getaway for me too. I’m so bored of Seoul right now.’ ‘Luhan, that’s a brilliant idea,’ Chang said, smiling,’ but unfortunately, I’m going to be working both the nights and whole day Sunday. The only time I’ll relax a bit will be on my flight back to Seoul.’ Luhan’s spirits dropped. ‘Both the nights?’ ‘Yes, both nights,’ Chang said,’ my boss is coming with me so I can’t slack off.’ ‘Please quit your job,’ Luhan said, folding his hands on his chest. Chang laughed and ruffled Luhan’s hair. ‘I’ll take you there soon,’ Chang said,’ I promise.’ Luhan nodded, halfheartedly. All his attempts of spending time with Chang were fouled, thanks to his overly demanding job. How was he supposed to patch things up when Chang did not even give him a chance?   It was Saturday night and Luhan was sitting at home, flipping through channels. Even Sehun wasn’t home that night. He had called Luhan saying he was going clubbing with a couple of friends directly after he finished work. ‘Hyung, come with us,’ Sehun said to him. ‘Naw man, I don’t feel like coming.’ ‘Hyung, I know you are old and your bones are becoming brittle but…’ ‘You …’ ‘Seriously, come over.’ ‘I’ll let you know.’ He sighed as he turned off the TV. It was 10’o clock already. Sehun said he would be there by 9-9:30pm. He considered dressing up and going to the club after all. It wasn’t that late yet and clubs usually became more fun as the night progressed. He picked his phone up and contemplated whether he should text Sehun saying that he was coming. Instead he opened his call log and dialed Chang’s number. Chang was probably at his office working right now and getting bored with his boss. At least talking with Luhan for a while would comfort him a bit. The phone rang for a long time before Chang picked it up. When he did, Luhan could hear booming disco music playing the background. ‘Chang?’ he said, confused,’ I thought you had to work tonight.’ ‘Luhan?’ Chang’s voice sounded slurred,’ oh yeah, a couple of my friends here dragged me out. Thankfully, my boss was not a pain for once.’ Luhan didn’t say anything for some time. He could have very well been with Chang in Busan right now in a club. But Chang opposed the idea of Luhan going with him and now he was having fun somewhere while Luhan was sitting at home, alone and bored to death. Luhan could have shouted and thrown a fit but he knew Chang won’t be able to hear him anyway over the din. He simply said,’ Enjoy yourself, Chang.’ He hung up immediately not waiting for Chang to reply back. He wasn’t even sure if Chang heard him. Without wasting any time, he ran to the restroom and took a quick shower. He opened his wardrobe and went through his clothes. He decided he was not going to be clumsy this time. He would dress up diligently and look his best tonight. He owed it to himself. He still couldn’t push his anger over Chang away. Chang had been so sure that he would be working during the weekend and would not have any time for Luhan. He didn’t know if Chang had blatantly lied to him. Well, to hell with him, Luhan was going to have fun too. He did not need Chang around to have a pleasant time. Finally, he stood in front of the mirror dressed in a white and black sequined shirt and black ripped jeans. He was wearing a silver cross earring on his left ear and silver chain on his neck. He wore his most comfortable red sneakers and a leather jacket. He styled his hair carefully to give them a messy straight hair look. Luhan knew this hairstyle suited him the best. Sehun had texted him the address of the club where he was going to be. Before leaving, he texted Sehun,’ I’m coming.’ But Sehun did not reply back even though Luhan reached the place. He figured Sehun probably did not realize getting a text over the loud noise. The bouncer cocked an eyebrow at Luhan and asked,’ where do you think you are going?’ He thought Luhan was underage. Luhan showed him his ID and the bouncer stepped aside. Luhan rolled his eyes. He wondered when they would stop thinking he was a kid. As soon as he entered, a blaring wave of music hit his ears. Luhan knew this place was more for the college crowd with affordable alcohol and sometimes not so courteous mob. He looked over the sea of heads bobbing to the music and sighed. It was going to be difficult to find Sehun or his friends in this madness. He made his way towards the bar and ordered a drink for himself. He figured he would have a drink and then set out on the dance floor in the hope that he would see Sehun somewhere. Mercifully, Sehun was pretty tall so Luhan had a little luck on his side. As he sat on the bar stool, sipping his drink, a guy came by and tapped on his shoulder. Luhan turned his head and saw a college guy, definitely younger than Luhan scanning him ersely from top to bottom. ‘Well hello, gorgeous,’ he said. ‘Not interested,’ Luhan said, turning back to his drink. ‘Really? But you look so lonely,’ the guy said, in a coddling voice,’ let me give you company.’ ‘Get lost please,’ Luhan said, dispassionately. ‘Come on,’ he egged on,’ if you are feeling down, I can feel you up.’ He grinned in the creepiest way that made Luhan feel disgusted and violated. ‘Smooth,’ Luhan said, sarcastically,’ does that line ever work?’ ‘You tell me.’ ’Not in this lifetime,’ Luhan said, finishing his drink,’ try again never.’ Luhan turned to leave but the guy grabbed his wrist. Luhan pulled his wrist back with force. ‘Listen creepy guy,’ Luhan said, threateningly,’ I’m not interested. I have a boyfriend and I would love to be left alone. Do you get it?’ ‘It’s just a one night stand,’ the guy shrugged,’ your boyfriend doesn’t have to know.’ ‘Oh but he will…’ Sehun said, making a superhero style appearance. He put his arm around Luhan’s waist and flashed the creepy guy a menacing smile. ‘Oh Sehun...’ the guy said, gulping. ‘See Myeong,’ Sehun said, his voice calm but at the same time quite frightening,’ do your research before you try to hit on some good looking guy. Or better yet, quit trying altogether.’ ‘I’m sorry,’ the guy named Myeong said, walking back with fear,’ I didn’t know he was with you…’ ‘You better leave before I change my mind about not punching your creep face,’ Sehun said, growling. Myeong made his way out of the crowd hurriedly. Sehun turned to look at Luhan and gasped. Luhan had never looked so ethereal before. A smile spread on Luhan’s face steadily and Sehun felt his face going numb as his blood drained out and reached a different part of his body. The part of his body that acted "up" every time Luhan was close… He did not blame Myeong for hitting on him anymore. He himself was getting just by looking at this celestial creature, who looked back at him with his doe eyes and tender smile. Luhan thought Sehun looked ravishing. He realized he liked Sehun’s hair swept back so that his beautiful forehead could be seen. He was wearing a white graphic T shirt covered with a sky blue blazer and black jeans. He looked phenomenal, although Luhan knew Sehun rocked every outfit that he wore
