for him. ✔

chapter sixteen.

Sehun kicked a rock, mind stupidly messed up. First, it was Baekhyun - one of his most loved and trusted friends and two, his family had to be shitty today and called him for a family dinner with another family.

Great, seems like he's finally going to meet the bitch he'll end up marrying.

Letting out a shaky sigh, Sehun plopped down on the bench. It was late in the afternoon, the sky already turning orange, but he was still in school. Everyone else had left early. His friends were depressed as hell, and that's because Baekhyun leaving just felt kind of painful for the fact that he, Baekhyun, Jongin and Kyungsoo have been together ever since elementary days. The thought that he was now in America and that they probably won't ever see him again is painful.

Losing a friend just feels shitty.

And Sehun felt so sorry for Chanyeol. He has only been acquaintance with the guy for the past few years, but ever since he's shown interest in Baekhyun and started hanging out with them, he had easily latched a place in Sehun's heart (although he wouldn't admit that, that's pretty gay). Sehun had been one of the first people to notice that Baekhyun's ex had been doing shady stuff behind his back, and he had been hoping that the petite older boy would find a much better partner in Chanyeol.

If Luhan seriously didn't like him, Sehun wanted Baekhyun and Chanyeol to at least end up together.

But now their relationship has fell apart before anything serious even took place, and even Sehun's love life was deteriorating.

He's losing it.

Sehun's phone vibrated in his pocket. Fishing it out, he swiped at the screen and brought it to his ear, too lazy to glance at the caller ID.

"Who is this?" he nonchalantly asked.

"Oh Sehun, where are you?"

The stern and harsh tone of speech was all too familiar to Sehun's ear even over the phone. Grinning bitterly, he said, "Still at school, pops."

"Well then get your sweetass over here! Our guests are waiting, don't be such a jerk."

Rolling his eyes, Sehun got up. "Aye, aye captain. I'm hanging up."

Without waiting to hear whatever his good old daddy has to say, Sehun ended the call and slipped it into his bag. He left the school gates, greeting the security guard on the way, and boarded a taxi to quickly make it to the dinner.

At the restaurant that he had been told to go to, Sehun was greeted by a waiter. "Good evening sir, do you have a reservation?"

"Ah yes," he answered. "I'm Oh Sehun."

The waiter bowed and stretched his arm. "Good evening, Mr. Oh. Please follow me, I'll take you to your table."

Sehun wasn't expecting much when he arrived at the table where his parents and the other family were. He was expecting the other family to be Yoona's, an ex of his, or maybe Seohyun's.

But what he didn't expect was that he'd be greeted by a certain, beautiful, doe-eyed boy accompanied by his parents.

"Ah, this is our Sehun," his mother pleasantly introduced as he bowed down respectfully and took his seat between them, glancing at Luhan from beneath his lashes. The boy looked heavenly, so much different than the flower boy Sehun knew from school. He seemed more graceful and regal, so much like the status of his family.

"It's nice to finally meet you, Sehun," Luhan's mother said. Sehun smiled graciously and bowed towards the lady.

"Our Luhan goes to Sooman Highschool," the woman said, placing an arm over the boy's shoulders. "I heard Sehun does too?"
