The Trap I Fell For [Under Reconstruction]

[19]

I kept staring at Sehun and Chen. Chen was awkwardly smiling at me. "You didn't tell me that you and Minseok have a thing." He said as he strode towards me. "We don't have a 'thing'. He was just visiting." I said, crossing my arms across my chest. He placed his hands on my shoulders and smiled. "You don't have to deny it. I completely understand." I looked at him outrageously. "Understand what?" He shrugged and patted my shoulder. As he plopped down the sofa I turned to Sehun.

"Hey, what are you doing here?" I asked, motioning him to sit down. "I came to see you." I nodded and offered them tea. "Why did you come to see me?" I asked while pouring tea. "I was going to ask you to spend New Year's Eve with me." I instinctively looked at him. I opened my mouth to speak but closed it again. "And where are you planning to take him?" Chen asked, lounging on the couch, nonchalantly. Sehun shrugged. "Out to dinner, maybe."

Chen raised a brow at him. "So how about it, Luhan?" Sehun asked. I bit my lip and pushed a lock of my hair out of my face. "I can't. I'm so sorry."

He furrowed his eyebrows, puzzled by my refusal. "Why?" I scratched the back of my neck. "Minseok, uh, he already asked me out." He scowled at the mere mention of his brother's name. His jaw tightened as he closed his eyes and took a deep breath. "He asked you?" He said emphasizing the word 'he'.

"Yeah, why? Is there a problem?" I asked. He managed to pull a fake smile despite the irritation that he was emitting. "No, of course not. Why would there be?" I shrugged, suddenly feeling uneasy. He stood up and ruffled his hair. "Well, I'll get going. See ya." He winked at me before going out of the room.

When he was out of earshot, Chen smiled at me and said "It must be fun to watch two boys fighting over you, isn't it?" I rolled my eyes at him. "What are you talking about? They're not fighting over me." He clucked his tongue and tucked it in his cheeks. "You know, Lulu. You have to stop being so pretentious. It doesn't suit you. What happened before I came in?" I crossed my arms across my chest and leaned back on my seat. "Nothing happened."

He stared at me for a moment. When I looked at him, his eyes were on something else. His eyes went back to me and he smiled wickedly. I furrowed my eyebrows and cautiously shifted on my seat. "What are you thinking?" He paused to think. "All of the surveillance cameras are working, right?" I nodded. "Yeah, why?"

"Okay, I'll just see what happened here." In seconds he was out of his chair and was racing out the door to the surveillance room. I ran after him. I nearly caught his shirt when he dashed inside the room and shut it in my face. I heard the door click, indicating he locked it. I banged on the door furiously. "Dammit, Chen! Open the door!" I heard him shout 'no' on the other side of the door.

I cursed and ordered a maid to get the key to that room. I was starting to pace outside when the maid came back with the key. I fumbled with the key. When I finally unlocked it I pushed it open. He was casually sitting in the reclining chair. "Well, well, well, wasn't that a sweet thing. I didn't know you guys were a fan of glee." He smirked at me. I glared daggers at him. "How much did you see?" I asked. He gave me a toothy grin. "All of it."

"I hate you, jerk." I said through gritted teeth. He chuckled and went towards me. "I love you, too. Come on we have to go." I knitted my brows together. "Where are we going?" He held my hand and pulled me to the main door. He pushed me inside a limo. "Hey, don't push me! And why are you kidnapping me?" He rolled his eyes as he shifted himself comfortably beside me.

He took a soda from the compartment in the corner. "Ease up, Lu. I'm just taking you to the mall." He said before chugging the whole can down. "Why?" I asked sternly. He took his cellphone out and started scrolling something. "I'm talking to you!" I punched him on the shoulder which made him winced. "You're so violent! I'm just taking my beloved brother out to lunch and perhaps buy him new clothes if he'd let me!" he said rubbing the spot where I punched him.
