Sehun walked along the corridors of their university with a sad, depressed pout on his lips- contrary to the usual Oh Sehun that the students occasionally see: the blond, poker faced, and proud man. But today is indeed different.
He noticed that none of his frat mates are here in the corridors, well maybe they already went to class or totally skipped it. Anyway, it was Yifan who told Sehun not to hang out with the rest of the Yehet Ohorat Fraternity anymore, because he thinks that they're really bad influence... and besides, it was Jongin who invited Sehun to Club Exo in the first place.
But of course, Sehun is a rebel by nature, so he decided not to obey his brother's impossible commands. I mean, what is life without Jongin, Jongdae, Joonmyeon, Chanyeol, or even Baekhyun?
And what is life without Lu Han.
It has been a week since he filed an absence due to his brother Yifan's prompting, so he studied in their condominium instead, with Yifan as his teacher. The latter was still traumatized because of the incident with Lu Han.
The vivid images floated in Yifan's mind until this very day, and he shivers at the thought of his younger brother in the hands of his ex-boyfriend, which was never raised as a topic, unless Yifan himself decides to speak up first.
Sehun had gone through a great deal of persuading Yifan to let him go back to his good, old university. After countless times of nagging, he finally made Yifan say yes.
But not of course with a condition, and that is to avoid Lu Han at all costs.
Sehun reluctantly agreed, but deep inside his heart ached, his whole body grew weaker and weaker everyday he tries not to miss that dumb deer Lu Han. He just can't imagine how things would be if he would completely avoid the said boy.
He would already be contented in seeing his newfound crush from afar, without actually talking nor interacting with him. This way is better that being locked up in a condominium flat and not seeing anyone else but his older brother.
Avoiding Lu Han was his first mission, when he sensed that he was beginning to fall for the football player. But then he failed, because he fell for him. And Lu Han didn't even do any effort to catch him before he falls into a deeper pit- the pit of longing and depression.
Maybe Lu Han already finished our Literature project without me, Sehun imagined, and tears were threatening to fall from his eyes. Maybe he found a new partner to work with, and they already passed it to that cranky professor.
"Sehun, are you alright?" A hand reached out to tap his shoulder, but Sehun immediately dodged it.
"Don't touch me. Don't even talk to me." Sehun gritted through his teeth. He clenched the handles of his black backpack harder until veins were embossed underneath his smooth skin.
Luckily, it was still early so only a few students could see the two of them.
"Okay, I'm sorry." Tao apologized, his piercing dark eyes suddenly softening. In his hand is an envelope full of his information- biodata and stuff.
Tao is Sehun's undercover bodyguard. Yifan told him to be with Sehun as much as possible in university, so that he could monitor each student that interacts with Sehun.
Along with this, he is also applying for an OJT (on the job training) as a P.E. and Wushu teacher in this university. This is his first day of work, so he has to submit all necessary applications- that's why Sehun is leading him to the business office.
"We're almost there." Sehun said, focusing on the signages on the walls. This building is pretty big, that even some teachers get lost here.
"Oh gosh my stomach is really queasy, I guess I need to go to the restroom first." Tao confessed, getting all jumpy and stuff. "Where's the nearest comfort room to the business office?"
"You-" Sehun was about to say stupid, but then he realized that Tao is a martial artist, and one thing everyone knows is don't mess with a martial artist. "You take a left turn right there beside the bulletin board near the office. To save time, I'll get your paperwork so the secretary could already examine them."
"Okay thanks Sehun." Tao handed the large envelope to Sehun and sprinted off to the restrooms.
The blond boy just shook his head at Tao's sharp actions and proceeded to enter the business office. Sehun knocked at first, but nobody answered. Then he hollered through a crack on the door but still nobody answered. Since the door's not locked, he just stormed inside, getting impatient.
"My name is Oh Sehun and I'm here to deliver Mr. Huang Zi-"
Lu Han.
Lu Han was innocently arranging stacks of paper on the desk like nothing ever happened.
"Please come in and close the... S-sehun?!" He blushed madly when he saw Sehun standing in the doorway.
"Lu Han..." Sehun whispered, dropping the envelope and it landed on the floor.
The older one rushed to pick it up, but as the two bended, their fingers brushed against each other, sending a romantic electric spark to their bodies.
Sehun instantly remembered every single moment he had with Lu Han, because of that touch. The familiar, perfect smooth skin that would touch Sehun whenever Lu Han wants to. Oh, the maknae went crazy over Lu Han, if only the latter knew how he misses him so much.
"Lu-ge..." Sehun whispered, his voice almost inaudible.
Lu Han, on the other side, looked at Sehun in the eye, letting himself be submerged in the beauty and intensity of Sehun's typical poker faced ones which never lost their innate sparkle.
"You finally said it right." Lu Han smiled sadly, tears were flowing from his eyes and onto his cheeks. "I missed you so much."
And Lu Han kissed Sehun with every feeling of passion that he has. Sehun kissed back eagerly, letting Lu Han dominate him and take his breath away with the intensity of the kiss.
"Come with me, Sehun-ah. Let's get out of here as soon as we can."
"Thank you for not letting go of me." Sehun whispered, smiling his first true smile in weeks.
--
"Yifan! Sehun... he's missing!"
"WHAT?!"
--
"Where do you plan to bring me, Lu-ge?" Sehun asked him, still playing with his handkerchief blindfold.
"It's a surprise. You'll see when we get there." Lu Han chuckled, guiding Sehun, one of his arms was wrapped protectively around the younger's narrow waist.
"Get where?" Sehun prodded.
"When we get to Cloud Nine." Lu Han joked in a naughty way, making Sehun blush deeply at his words.
"Aigoo, Lu-ge. Stop playing with me." Sehun tried to remove Lu Han's arm from his waist but the latter didn't even bulge- he was too strong for Sehun.
"Fine. I'll tell you where it is."
"Ooh, where?"
"I'll tell you later when we get there."
"Ugh you are such a Dumb Deer!"
"Don't even start it, Bratty Booty!"
Minutes of walking flew by, and at last they finally arrived at the place that Lu Han was planning to bring Sehun to.
"You can take off your blindfold now." Lu Han instructed in a gentle voice.
Sehun did as he was told, and when he took off the blindfold, he gasped in awe.
Lu Han led him to an extraordinary place- a garden, to be specific, and there were lots of wild, colorful flowers and soft patches of Bermuda grass. In front of them was a modern two-storey white house, complete with a pool, gazebo, porch and everything.
But most of all, the spectacular view of the sun setting made the place more beautiful and romantic at the same time.
"Wow, this is so nice..." Sehun admitted, blushing profusely, and nervously looked down to his shoes. "Did you prepare all of this?"
"You'll find out later." Lu Han winked teasingly.
"Here you go again with the suspense ideas. You're such a cliffhanger." Sehun pouted.
"But I'm going to do something that I won't wish of doing later, because if I do that, I might lose the chance of being with you forever."
Sehun was completely puzzled by Lu Han's deep thoughts. However, he was more puzzled when Lu Han suddenly knelt down in front of him on the soft grass.
"Lu Han, what are you doing?" Sehun said in a very soft voice, a voice so faint that he couldn't even hear himself. All he could hear is the loud, deafening thumping of his own heart.
"Oh Sehun, will you receive the honor of being this Dumb Deer's boyfriend?"
Sehun stared dumbly at the flowers that were being offered to him by Lu Han... he was so speechless, he didn't even know what to say nor what to react. All he knows that he's blushing, his heart is about to leap out of his chest, and that he really, really loves Lu Han so much.
"Yes, I will!" Sehun cried out loud, kneeling down to hug Lu Han with the flowers squished between their bodies, and after that he showered Lu Han with a lot of kisses.
"I love you so much, Lu Han."
"Sehun, I love you more."
"Yehet yehet! Guys! HunHan is finally back in business!" Someone shouted, interrupting the romantic moment they are currently sharing.
Sehun broke the kiss and sheepishly looked at Jongdae, Jongin, Joonmyeon, Chanyeol and Baekhyun, Kyungsoo, and even Minseok who were standing in front of the modern white house.
And that's not all. They were also holding a banner that reads "CONGRATULATIONS!"
"H-how long have you guys been there?"
"The whole time, Supremo." Jongin winked, showing his camcorder to Sehun, who even blushed harder.
"They prepared this whole event with me." Lu Han smiled and ruffled Sehun's smooth, blond locks. "Do you... do you like it?"
"What are you saying?! I like it so much! Really! Guys thank you so much, I had no idea you would even remember me... especially you, Lu Han. I thought you would already forget me."
"D-don't say things like that." Lu Han surprisingly blushed.
"Did you know what mah bee eff eff did whenever he misses you, Sehun?" Minseok smirked, eyeing his flustered best friend.
"What?"
"He always-"
"Okay guys, time to go back to Lu Han's house! We need to start the party!" Baekhyun was getting more and more impatient, being a natural party animal and a nerd at the same time.
Lu Han silently thanked him for interrupting his big-mouthed best friend.
Everyone went inside and gathered in the living room. Lu Han and Sehun were the last to go in, and when they went inside, a huge pile of gifts was waiting right in front of them, begging to be opened.
"Whoa, whose birthday is it today?" Lu Han dumbly asked and it didn't take a while for the rest of their friends to laugh at his question.
"Nobody's birthday." Chanyeol said, almost tearing up in laughter.
"How come there are so many gifts then?" Sehun added, pointing to the high pile of boxes wrapped in multicolored paper.
"These gifts are for the HunHan couple! Congratulations!" Everyone shouted in glee as the 'HunHan' couple blushed to the ends of their ears.
"H-hunhan? It should be HanHun! I'm the one who tops, okay?" Lu Han defiantly stomped his foot like a spoiled brat.
"So you're already thinking about making love to our dearest Supremo?!" Joonmyeon gasped in shock. "Kids these days."
Sehun's eyes widened in anticipation. "Is that true, Lu Han?!"
"I-it's not like that!" Lu Han waved his hands in the air. "Don't get the wrong idea, guys!"
"Sure, sure. But just remind us when you two have decided to do it, because my camcorder is very handy, dudes." Jongin winked.
"Yeah, and it'll be pay per view." Jongdae added.
"Why you-!" Lu Han was about to attack Jongdae when the diva Baekhyun decided to interrupt again.
"Guys, we are not here to watch them have sex, we should pay respect and let them do it privately! We are here to celebrate and partayyy! And of course, you two open the gifts now will ya."
"Okay, thanks for that, Baek. I owe you one." Lu Han smiled and led Sehun to the table full of gifts."Seriously guys we aren't even married yet and you're already giving us stuff."
"Lu Han, enjoy it while it lasts." Sehun suggested and Lu Han agreed with a wink.
"We'll open this first." Lu Han grabbed a circular thing enclosed in Christmas wrapper. He read the tag and commented afterwards. "Wow thank you for this football, Seokkie."
Minseok was alarmed. "Hey you haven't even opened it yet! How come you already know it's a football?"
"Because duh. I'm not blind. It's so obvious. And thank you for the very appropriate wrapper. Early Christmas." Lu Han laughed and put the football away.
Next, Sehun got a rectangular box from 'ChanBaek.' "Who the heck is this ChanBaek?"
"Ouch!" A gasp was heard from the noisy group. "It means Chanyeol plus Baekhyun, duuuh. Because we make a great couple!"
"No we don't." Chanyeol frowned.
"Yes we do, slave! Now say we are the best couple in the world!" Baekhyun slapped Chanyeol in the arm, eliciting a groan from the younger.
"We are the best couple in the world." Chanyeol said in a monotone.
"Say it with feelings, you ungrateful imbecile! Like you're Romeo and I'm Juliet!"
"We are the BEST COUPLE in the WORLD." Chanyeol said, flailing his arms in the air and standing up to proclaim it.
"Okay open it now." Baekhyun told Sehun.
"What is it?" Kyungsoo inquires, peeking from Jongin's broad shoulder.
"It's a picture frame with Baekhyun hugging Chanyeol on it." Sehun sighed and raised the picture frame up in the air for everyone to see it.
"What?!" Chanyeol gasped out loud. "I never remember having that picture taken!"
"It's because you're a dumb and worthless slave, Chanyeol! You were even the one who took that picture! And don't worry. There's more." Baekhyun winked suggestively.
"Yeah but why give your picture to us?" Lu Han curiously asked.
"Because..." the Queen B held his breath to pause dramatically. "ChanBaek is relationship goals!"
Everyone sighed except for Baekhyun. As expected, his super talkative (and not to mention imaginative) side is getting the best of him.
"New topic: my gift!" Joonmyeon shouted. "Guys open my gift please."
"Okay, chillax, Joonie." Sehun chuckled and unwrapped his gift. Lu Han peeked from his shoulder to see what was inside the golden wrapper. "Baby mittens. What are these for?"
"Uhm, you know. Just when you decided to adopt a baby and start a whole family of little Sehuns and Lu Hans."
"Yuck, there's going to be more Bratty Booties and Dumb Deer running around in nothing but diapers." Jongdae commented, sticking out his tongue in disgust.
Meanwhile Sehun and Lu Han just blushed because their friends are ridiculous and not to mention jumping over conclusions. They have just gotten together and now they will raise a family? How ridiculous could the frat mates get?
"I bet my gift is the most sensible of all gifts." Kyungsoo boasted, extracting his own gift from the pile and handing it to Lu Han. "Here, feel free to open it. It's really meant for Sehun though, but who knows, maybe sometimes the tables will turn around."
Lu Han examined the gift by shaking it up and down to see what sound it would produce. Horrified, Kyungsoo stopped the brunet and exclaimed, "It's very fragile!"
"Oh sorry. I didn't know that." Lu Han apologized. "Here Sehun, since Kyungsoo told us that it was meant for you, then you should open it instead."
Sehun eagerly took the box but he was distracted by Kyungsoo's smile. "Ew, don't smile like that! You look so evil!"
Kyungsoo snickered darkly that even Jongdae, who was the bravest in the room, got terrified. "I am evil. Now open it, my minion!"
Jongin was shocked at Kyungsoo's horrible actions. How come Kyungsoo could easily address Supremo like that?! Maybe he's really evil! I should stay away from him just in case! Who knows he might dominate me and take over my body!
[A/N: pun intended. This is freaking KaiSoo, guys. Puns are always intended ;)]
"Aaaah!!!" Lu Han literally screamed when he saw the content of the mysterious box. He ran away from the group and hid behind a table. "G-get that damned thing away from me!"
Sehun just stared at the Baby Alive doll with zero interest. "So what do you want to imply, Kyungsoo?"
"Look, it can eat, poop, cry, and laugh! It can even walk for goodness sake! You could practice your motherly skills using this doll, if ever you and Lu Han have a child!" Kyungsoo cackled evilly.
"What! I'm not gonna be the m-mother of any child! It should be L-lu Han! He looks more like a girl than I do!"
"Sehun! Just face it okay? Looks are just external! The main thing is what's hidden underneath the boxers!" Baekhyun pointed out. "I've been told that he's unexpectedly big! Is that true?"
Sehun's whole face heated up as he remembered all those times that he showered with Lu Han in the bathroom.
"I want to save time and conserve water." Lu Han would always say.
"Baekhyun! I will murder you if you don't stop this instance!" Lu Han shouted from behind the table.
"I can hear you blushing, Lu Han!" Baekhyun retorted.
"As much as I hate dolls, I think this better goes to Baekhyun because he also has to practice his motherly skills for his and Chanyeol's child." Sehun gave the doll to Baekhyun instead.
"We are not having children!" Chanyeol demanded, slamming his fist on the table and hurting himself.
But Baekhyun just ignored him and said, "I'm gonna name this doll Chevrolet."
"What the heck?! Why Chevrolet of all names." Joonmyeon exclaimed.
"Why? Having a problem with cars?" Baekhyun rolled his eyes and sat down beside Chanyeol in the long sofa.
"Hey, I love Chevrolet." Chanyeol smiled.
"Lu-ge you can go out now. C'mon, don't be such a 'fraidy cat!" Sehun said and Lu Han came out in a second.
"Good thing the cursed thing's already gone." He muttered, staring hard at Kyungsoo for bringing up that doll. "Okay. We have no more gifts. I guess we could start the party!"
--
In the garden, Lu Han was forced to join the Yehet Ohorat Fraternity despite the no flower boys rule, thanks to Sehun. He was left with Jongin outside while the others were inside, playing games and dancing to music.
"Hey dude." Jongin called him with his signature pet name.
"Hey." Lu Han smiled, watching some butterflies flutter over the flowers. Sehun was nowhere to be found, well maybe he was playing NBA with Chanyeol and Joonmyeon.
"I never imagined that we would have a gay Supremo."
"Neither do I."
"Haven't you noticed that I don't have a gift for the two of you?"
"Seriously though, it's not required. I wasn't even expecting anyone to give us gifts."
"But I have." Jongin insisted. He stood up from the picnic blanket and beckoned for Lu Han to stand up too. "I hid it in the bushes. Oh, here it is."
He handed a large rectangular box enclosed in black paper to Lu Han.
"What are you waiting for?" Jongin smiled, trying to hide the smirk that would come afterwards. "Open it."
"Hell no." After unwrapping the mysterious container, Lu Han blankly stared at the box that reads 'Sex Toys' in bright red letters.
"Hell yes. Now, find Sehun and give him your precious gift using those handy tools in bed. And don't tell me that you're not yet turned on by the time that Sehun was drunk... he desperately needs you, Lu Han."

QOTD: which gift do you like the most and why?
