Can You Keep a Secret? (Luhan Fanfic)

Chapter 10: Starting Point

"I wish that you were still in my classes. We hardly see eachother on campus now." Dahae said as she sat in the shade of a tree beside Luhan. They had their english books out and planned to test eachother on the material but Dahae preferred to chat instead of study. 

"Yeah, but it's too late in the year to switch classes now."Luhan replied, laying his back on the tree. "Oh before I forget, Haru made you this thank you card for buying her that tricycle." Luhan took out a small peice of paper from his backpack that had a scribbled drawing that was supposed to represent Dahae. 

"Aww she's so sweet," Dahae praised, receiving the card. 

"--but I want to return the bike to you . You didn't have to go out of your way to buy that." A few days ago when Dahae visited Luhan's apartment, she appeared with a small pink tricycle as a present for Haru. Dahae basically treated Haru as her own little sister and enjoyed spoiling her with gifts; however, Luhan was opposed to receiving such lavish gifts but the combination of Dahae's constant insisting and Haru's crying, he had no other choice but to accept the bike. 

Ever since their unofficial date together, Dahae and Luhan have become closer friends and Luhan somewhat let his guard down and got rid of his cold facade (well at least around Dahae) and they've been enjoying eachother's company even more now. Though no one dared to bring up the moment they almost kissed. 

"But every kid should have their first bike. And maybe sometime we can all go biking together and since the bike shops don't rent out kids' bikes, Haru can use the tricycle I bought." Dahae tried reasoning. 

Luhan chuckled, it was obvious that Dahae wasn't going to take 'no' for an answer. "Well...thanks, again." Luhan squinted as he looked up into the clear and sunny sky. "It's a really nice day today."

"Yeah it is, it's been cold lately but--" 

"I've had enough of english for today. Is it ok if I rest for a while?" Luhan closed his workbook and rested his head on Dahae's shoulder. He closed his eyes and breathed calmly while Dahae on the other hand froze as the weight of Luhan's head reached contact in the nook of her neck.

Just a few days ago Luhan didn't want to have any contact with Dahae other than shaking her hand, but now he's starting to feel comfortable enough to rest on her. Dahae was about to wake him up because her shoulder started getting numb, but realized that he must be worn out from his job and decied to let him sleep. Watching Luhan sleep made Dahae feel a little drowsy so she set an alarm for herself to wake up in 5 minutes.

"Um did we miss something?"

Dahae looked up from her lap and saw Mijoo and Baekhyun staring down at her. She rubbed her eyes in confusion then was startled to see Luhan sleeping on her. She must have been so tired that she forget he was with her. "Um no, I think we just fell asleep."

"Hey Luhan," Baekhyun flicked his friend's forehead. 

"Ow," Luhan woke up and rubbed the sore area. 

"My parents just came back from Haru's appointment."

"Oh really?" Luhan began packing his back and stood up. "Alright, let's go back to your house then."

"Is Haru ok?" Dahae asked, joining everyone. 

"Yeah. Baek's parents just took her to a doctor's appointment, but I should go pick her up at their house now."

"Oh alright. I'll see you later?" Dahae said with twinkling eyes, "Oh of course, you too, Baekhyun."

"Yeah yeah I feel the love," Baekhyun said sarcastically. "We'll see you guys later." Baekhyun placed his hand on Luhan's back and led him off. But before leaving, Luhan turned his head over his shoulder and gave a parting smile to Dahae.
