THIRD PERSON POV

Minho went home to get changed into some casual outfit. After getting changed Hyunjin will take him to Chan's place. God knows for which surprise but Minho was excited actually.

Hyunjin drove him to Chan's house and pressed the calling bell then Chan came out. he tossed a blindfold to Hyunjin to cover Minho's eyes which he found quite strange but did so. Jisung has texted the taller male so he decided to take his leave.

Chan hold Minho's smaller hand in his bigger one and lead him towards the house. "Hyung, are you planning to kill me?" The younger asked with a chuckle. He knows Chan won't hurt him in any condition and neither let anyone hurt him.

"When can I take this blindfold off?" The brunette asked and stumbled a little but Chan quickly held him by his waist. Minho gasped at the sudden action of the older.

"1.. 2... 3... Surprise!!" Chan unwrapped the piece of cloth from the younger's eyes and showed him what he prepared for him. Minho looked at the walls, table and the way Chan decorated them in awe. It looked so mesmerizing. The beautiful diming lights, the theme of red and white balloons and the small cake placed on the table looked so cute.

"Hyung, what's that for?" The younger looked around the house and he was really surprised. "C'mon you are back how can I not celebrate it!" Chan exclaimed while crossing his hands against his chest.

"Thanks hyung!! It's so beautiful!" The younger side hugged the blonde.

"Min, I've something to say.." Chan begun to say, Minho indicated him to continue and passed him an assuring smile.

"I think I like you.. No scratch that I love you alot! I love you since we were kids.. At first I wasn't sure of my feelings but as time passed by my love for you started increasing. I still remember the day I met you, i remember how small and adorable you looked. I was hesitant to admit my love cause I always thought you will not accept it but the day you asked me to date you I realised you like me back" Chan confessed and held younger's hands firmly. "The day I decided to move back to Australia it hurted me alot.. I didn't want to leave you like that but it was my problem.. But now we're together! Can we please start over?" The older brought Minho's hands close to himself and kissed the back of it.

"I can't date you hyung!" Minho shouted, he couldn't understand why Chan is saying all these stuff all of sudden. 'Are you pitying me hyung? Don't love me out of sympathy' Minho thought to himself.

"Why can't you date me?" The older asked back as Minho took a few steps backwards.

"I am going to die soon. How can I leave you here alone? I don't want to hurt you" Minho stated, His eyes were glossy as tears shone in his eyes. His heart was aching but he can't be so selfish to accept Chan, then leave him all alone in this cruel world.

"You and I are in the same situation right now. You're going to die due to your disease and I'm going to die due to mine. You're losing your life and me my memories" Chan said with so much determination. "No one is going to live forever. We can't control over life and death. These things is beyond our reach. Sooner or later everyone has to die. But we must enjoy the moments which we're living now", Chan paused for a while and took few steps closer to the later. "Do you remember Minho, the day you told me that we should enjoy our today? I'm doing it now! I can't feel myself more happy than with you. I truly love you" He added and looked at the younger for an answer.

"Do you know that you'll be hurt the day I will die?" Minho asked him with teary eyes. He was on the verge of breaking down at any moment.

"I will even forget how to feel pain" Chan stated with a chuckle. "I'm losing my memories with every passing day and I'm trying my best to not forget you and our friends" He added and placed his hands over the younger's shoulders. It's true, he was working very hard to remember everything. The more time passes by the more memories he is losing but he memorise everything again and again to reduce his amnesia a bit.

"I really love you, Min" He whispered to the brunette. Their faces were inches apart that the older's breath fanned against Minho's face. The younger felt something wet on his cheeks as he looked he saw the older crying. "I love you too, hyung" He admitted before pulling the older in his embrace. He knows he won't live for a long time neither Chan will remember him after he passes away.

"Min," Chan called and loosened the hug.
"Hmm?" Then, he pulled away completely and looked at the younger's eyes. He became so lost in his eyes and forgot what he had to say next.

"Hyung."
"Hyung?"
"Yㅡyes? Yes." He snapped back to reality when he heard the taller calling him.

"Min," Chan started, he knelt down in front of the boy, "Can I keep you, and, never let go?"

Minho gasped, "H-hyungㅡ"
"You know what I'm talking about, will you be mine, until we die?" Chan then, looked at Minho with dear eyes, Minho looked back into his eyes.

"Hyung, Iㅡ" The brunette started, "Yesㅡ yes, I will be yours, all yours!"
A smile streched along Chan's thin lips. Minho's face reciprocated the expression.

Chan got up and Minho hugged him once again, "I love you so much, hyung."
"I love you too, Min."
The hug lasted more than just few seconds. They felt so happy in their moment. They loved each other and wanted to cherish as long as they lived.
"Wait, I have something for you." Chan said, pulling away from the hug. A twisted expression appeared on the younger's face.

"What is it, hyung?"
The older went inside his room and came out with a bouquet of a bouquet of the Baby's Breathㅡㅡ Minho's favorite flowers.

"Ta-da!" Chan exclaimed, with the bouquet in his hand. "Those are my favorite, thank you so muchㅡ"

"Tch, don't say thank you to your own boyfriend giving you your favorite flowers, Min."

"Hyung" The younger tapped the older's shoulder to get his attention, Chan hummed in response and turned his gaze on the brunette. "I'm hungryㅡ"

"I'll cook something for us thenㅡ"
"I want to cook for us. The doctors didn't let me do anything when I was admitted in hospital" Minho pouted making the older chuckle a bit.

"Only if you let me help you in cooking" Chan added and guided Minho to the kitchen.
