"Yo, Sehun!" Luhan hollered across the lunch hall. Sehun hadn't seen him since earlier that morning and he hadn't mentioned the incident with Kai either. He didn't want to mention it. Sehun made his way to his friends but he kept his head down; he couldn't make eye contact. Luhan obviously noticed, he noticed everything about Sehun. Everything.
"What's happened? Sehun, tell me?" Luhan asked, his voice worried.
"It's nothing. Honestly!" Sehun stuttered.
"Bet it's Jongin," Kris joked, just presuming. Sehun's face burnt bright red.
"Oh shit it actually is!" Luhan gasped, "What has he done to you?"
"Nothing! I just saw him outside, I didn't speak to him! I can't stand him after what he did to Kris and Tao this morning!" Sehun lied quite convincingly. That was until Kai turned up.
"Sehun you left this earlier," he said huskily and placed Sehun's mobile on the table whilst winking at him seductively, "You should come and sit with us sometime, the others would like to get to know you." He smiled breathtakingly and walked away.
"What the fuck was that?" Kris snorted, trying to contain his laughter. Luhan looked like someone had just stabbed him through the heart.
"Luhan don't look at me like that! Please!" Sehun begged, pained that his friend looked so hurt. Did Luhan feel the same as he did?
"You hit it off with Jongin didn't you! Today has made history guys! He was nice to a new kid!" Kris was laughing again. Tao remained quiet the whole time; he still hadn't recovered from the car incident. Luhan got up and left, he couldn't control himself. Sehun ran after him and chased him into the empty hallway.
"Luhan I don't understand what I've done! We just spoke for a bit!" Sehun gasped, still out of breath from running.
"Yeah because Jongin winks at all the new kids! Honestly Sehun, tell me what happened?" Luhan whined.
"Are you jealous?" Sehun asked.
"What? No! I'm just thinking of you! Jongin is a prick and I don't want to see you get hurt!" Luhan lied and Sehun could see it but he didn't say anything.
"I'm fine with him! We only talked! Just like friends! I don't understand why you are so upset?"
"I'm just worried, that's all," Luhan whispered. Sehun moved closer to him and cupped the blonde boys hands in his.
"Luhan you are my best friend and that is never going to change. Not for Kai not for anyone." Sehun looked up, tears filling his eyes.
"I don't deserve you, you are too forgiving. I'm sorry, you can be friends with whoever you like. You just mean too much to me and I don't want to see you get hurt!" Luhan sobbed.
"It's okay, I'd be the same! Thank you," Sehun answered and he took the small blonde boy in his arms and held him tight as he cried into his chest.
"Dude, you like that Sehun kid don't you?" Chanyeol asked Kai when he reached the table. Baekhyun had gone home after the unconscious incident and Kyungsoo was with his girlfriend so it was just Kai and Chanyeol.
"Yeah, I think I do," Kai replied calmly, not even trying to hide it.
"How do you know he doesn't go for the other side if you know what I mean?"
"If he likes girls I will officially declare I'm ugly," Kai laughed.
"You're so vain! I take it your dead set on this one then?" Chanyeol smiled.
"Yes, I really am," Kai said so genuinely.
Luhan and Sehun reentered the hall holding each others hands tightly, not wanting to ever let go.
"Luhan, what happened? Are you okay?" Kris asked, his voice laden with concern.
"I'm fine I promise! I just can't stand Jongin."
"Aw well nothing new there then!" Kris said and Luhan smiled.
"Kai? What's up?" Chanyeol queried. Kai's hands were balled into fists by his sides as he gritted his teeth; he was staring right at Sehun and Luhan as they held hands. He felt like someone had just hit him and he couldn't take the pain. He then got up and left the hall without even one word to Chanyeol. Kai had known about Sehun his whole life. He knew him better than anyone, he always had. But Sehun barely knew he existed and it hurt.
