Sick {HunHan}

Chapter 15 - All that's left is us

"I want you to leave, Sehun. "

Almost dropping the cold, damp cloth in his hand, Sehun managed to catch it before it landed on Luhan's feverish forehead. He couldn't have heard this right, could he?

"What? "

"You heard me, boy. I've seen through you long ago but of course, being the fool I apparently am, I thought you'd be smarter than to take it this far. My son has not eaten for days because of you, his health is ruined because of you. I will go through this with Lay, and I will have you taken off your position as personal butler as soon as possible. You are no longer welcome here. " Mrs. Cha pumped the air out of Sehun's lungs, word by word. Because he wanted to stay, hell, all he wanted was to stay, with Luhan. He would become mute and never talk to him or even touch him, but the one thing he would never be able to do was to leave the only person he cared about more than his own life. He was devastated.

The fur-dressed woman left the hospital room, leaving him and Luhan alone. Soon, he felt hot trails down his cheeks, but he didn't have the will to remove them. He didn't have the will to do anything.
He wanted to just stay there, by Luhan's side, forever. 

Why was it that the moment he found someone he truly and whole heartedly cared about for the first time in his hopeless life, he had to be ripped away from them like this?

As Sehun was swallowed in his misery, Luhan slowly awoke from his deep sleep to the sound of sniffled sobs filling the room. Was Sehun... Crying? Luhan was at a loss of words; he had not once in the time they'd been together seen - or heard - Sehun cry. Something was horribly wrong.
He shifted carefully in an attempt to get within reach of Sehun, but the bed creaked loudly at the motion and Sehun quickly turned around after a pitiful attempt to wipe his eyes and hide the tears still threatening to fall.

"I - "

"Don't. Don't try to make excuses. Please, tell me what's going on. What happened? How long was I asleep? "

"Two days. I- You pushed yourself too hard, Luhan. Why? Why are you so skinny? Why ha-haven't you been taking care of yourself! I've failed, I am a failure. I was supposed to keep you safe, Luhan. Safe! And look at you now, look at us. There isn't even an us anymore, we're parting so soon. Your mother told me just now, about me leaving... " The words flowed from his mouth, and Sehun was sure he'd never spoken for so long before, the bubbles containing his frustrations had all bursted. He talked about how he felt weird and tinkly inside, too, when their skin touched. About how much he always wanted Luhan and him to be together till the end of time. About how hard he tried, that he really, really did his best to be exactly that.
And about how badly he'd screwed it all up.

And through the entire waterfall of words that sounded so painfully sad coming from his Sehun's soft tongue, Luhan did nothing but stare at him in utter disbelief of not only the big amount of talking, but also that his own mother had actually had the heart to do this to him. To them.
And as Sehun's last melodic syllables faded out and the room fell into complete silence except for the dulled humming of the fluorescent lamp hanging from the ceiling, Luhan finally mustered a quiet whisper;

"W-we could run away... "
