I Couldn't Care Less

The Bite

"Hey. Happy Anni – umph!"

Sehun was cut off when his boyfriend flung himself at him after running across the lawn. Luhan latched on to Sehun, arms wrapped tightly around Sehun's neck, feet off the ground.

Smiling, Sehun tenderly circled his arms around Luhan's waist, holding him up. Luhan rested his head on Sehun's shoulder.

"I'm guessing you like the surprise," Sehun said. He felt Luhan nodding in response. You're easier to surprise than I thought -

Feeling wetness slowly spreading on his shirt, Sehun gently pulled Luhan off of him, placing the older boy firmly on the ground again (Luhan's arms were still wrapped around the back of his neck).

He cupped Luhan's tear stained cheeks. Bewildered, he asked the boy, "Yah! Why are you crying?" while wiping those delicate tears with his thumbs.

Luhan sniffed. "B-because I love you so much Sehun-ah." Oh Bambi..what am I going to do with you?

Sehun brushed his lips underneath Luhan's glossy eyes, the spot where tears were trailing not too long ago. "I know you do, but that's not a good reason to cry."

"It is when you're so happy that the person you love, the person you treasure the most loves you back." Luhan's eyes twinkled.

Thumbs still lightly stroking Luhan's face, Sehun gazed into his eyes and smiled. "You just now figured that out?"

"Sehun-ah, this is the first time you've ever told me you love me." Luhan's eyes shifting towards the "I ♥ U" candles.

Dumbfounded by his boyfriend's comment, Sehun abruptly stopped caressing Luhan's face. "W-what???"

"You've never actually told me you love me," Luhan repeated.

Scenes of them together for the last month flashed through Sehun's mind - all the times they've hugged, cuddled, kissed, even the simple moments where they were just sitting next to each other.

His heart skipped a beat when he realized that Luhan was right.

He'd spent every possible second with Luhan, but the words, words that he has always felt, have not once slipped his mouth. How could I not have told him....???

Horrified, Sehun looked at Luhan with desperate eyes. "Even if I've never mentioned it, you know I love you right?!? Ever since realizing my feelings for you, I've love you."

Hearing Sehun's panicky voice, Luhan giggled. He inched closer to Sehun, standing on his toes.

"I know," he whispered before softly giving Sehun a sweet comforting kiss. "But it's really nice to finally hear it." The older boy grinned.

Apologetic, Sehun hugged Luhan tighter. "Sorry it took so long.... I was too busy loving you to realize that I needed to tell you as well."

Even at night, Sehun could see Luhan's cheeks tinged pink.

"When did you get so romantic?" Luhan eyed him with a raised brow.

Sehun shrugged. "I can be romantic if I put my mind to it." He smiled when Luhan laughs at his statement.

"I thought you hate cheesy stuff like this.." Luhan pointed at the big poster lying forgotten on the grass, the flickering candles, and the little table Sehun had set up.

"I do... but making you happy takes priority – sometimes, so don't expect big surprises like this every day, " Sehun said with a playful grin.

"Aish!" Luhan blushed once more. He covered his face, refusing to let Sehun see him flustered. So cute.

Using his nose, Sehun nuzzled Luhan's hands away from his face. "I love you Bambi. Don't forget it."
