Tucked beneath the light blue sky, Sungchan was sitting alone on the school field, admiring his friends kicking the football here and there. He spots Chenle playing as well, running away from other players to shoot his ball. He kicked the ball, flying mid air, and it went straight into the net, a clean shot.
"Good job Chenle!" The PE teacher claps and pat his back. Chenle smiles at the man and jog towards Sungchan. He picked up his bottle and gulp down a good amount of water for hydration.
"Hey Chenle," Sungchan greets weakly. He laid down on the bench and covered his eyes. "Hey," he greets back. Chenle took a sit next to his head, knocking on the bench with his knuckles so that Sungchan acknowledges his presence.
"Can we talk?" Chenle asked faintly. Sungchan sits up, looking at the boy with curiosity. It wasn't normal for him to see Chenle all worn out. He looks tired with the dark circle around his eyes and pale lips. "Sure, what is it?" Sungchan scoots closer to the boy.
"Do you know where he is?" Sungchan was about to ask him who it was but after making eye contact with the boy next to him, he knew right away who Chenle was talking about. "I don't know either," he responded. He realized that he was wrong to conclude that his friends weren't worried of him.
"I don't know if you noticed or not Sungchan, but you actually mean a lot to him," Chenle was a little hesitant to say that because Donghyuck told him not to, but it seemed like Sungchan should know as well, knowing that the older boy himself is important to Sungchan.
"Oh," his heart begins to beat fast. He felt a little shiver going up his spine and his thoughts were now clouded by the moments they had together when they first met.
"He is gonna graduate soon, in a few weeks, but we still don't know where he is. I thought you might know considering the way he feels about you," Chenle plays with the rock on the ground with his foot, rolling it around.
"And I also want to thank you,"
"Thank me for what?" Sungchan chuckles by the sudden act. "Because of you, he had the guts to end things with Mark,"
Chenle knows about his relationship with Mark and he always wanted Donghyuck to get rid of him. It was painful for Chenle to see the older boy getting stuck in a relationship he's not happy in. The Chinese boy wanted to help but he couldn't because Mark threatened him too.
"Hell no it was because of me. Donghyuck was strong for doing that and he thought himself how to get through it,"
"Stop acting humble," Chenle grins, slightly pushing Sungchan to the side jokingly. "When did they broke up though?"
"Right after that one party Mark had at his house,"
Chenle's answer weirded him out. If they broke up right after the party, then why did he come two days after that to lash things out on him.
"I don't know if he told you this but be he actually li-"
"Chenle come over here!" The PE teacher cuts him. "Ah later!" He sprinted away, waving at Sungchan.
"Wa-" Sungchan lets out a sigh. He dislike cliffhangers in a middle of something that makes him curious to the core. But he knows Chenle couldn't avoid his coach's orders so Sungchan let it slide and went back home after hearing the last bell ring.
____
Waking up is a transition from the world of dreams into reality, and for that it is good to take a little time. Sungchan repeats the last few seconds of his dream that he managed to remember.
