She brushed her long brown hair behind her ears and looked at him. He looked back at her with the same intense gaze, the knowing gaze. The pain in their hearts so strong one word and both might break down in front of the other. 

"So your leaving, just like that?" Luhan says and she nods her head. "I'm engaged as we speak, and I will withdraw my admission to Uni. Lu I am leaving to Korea in June," Yuri says as she bites the inside of her cheeks and clenches her fist to keep the tears in. "Yuri, you don't have to leave," he says as he looks away from her and to his hands. "Luhan you know I have too," she responds and stands up extending her arm. He looks up to her and takes her hand, both leave the little tea shop they had met up at and decided to just walk wherever their legs took them. 

"Your studies! Yuri your plans! Our plans," Luhan says and stops them from walking and pulls her into an alley. "Why do we keep talking about it!" she says and tries walking away but he pulls her arm and blocks her from leaving. "I have a month with you! Your my girlfriend! Not someones wife!" he says raising his voice and Yuri grabs Luhan's shirt and they both fall into a kiss.

 "Luhan I will never stop loving you," she says as they brake away for air. "I'll follow you," he tells her and she smiles and shakes her head. "Don't stop your life for me. My life has been chosen for me, but you still have freedom," Yuri says with a sad smile and she runs her hand down the side of his face. "I'm going to miss you so much," she tells him and his hold around her tightens. "If your not with me then I have no life," he tells her and she only giggles. Luhan feels his heartbeat stop at the sound of her laugh that he hadn't heard since the beginning of that year. "Why are you cheesy?" she says and smiles and he too finally smiles, "I'm this way because I date you," he says and she rolls her eyes. Yuri embraces Luhan and they stand there in each others arms till they head back out to the street to continue their stroll. 

"Will you visit me?" Yuri asks and Luhan looks at her and sighs. "Yuri I am not leaving you, I said I will follow you," he tells her and she nods. "I'm going to give up singing," he says and she snaps her head to him and he meets her eyes. "Luhan! You can't!" she says and he pulls her along, "I have other things to worry about Yuri! Like getting you back," he says and she tightens her grip on his hand. "Your singing though, Luhan...." Yuri says again and he shakes his head, "I only want to sing for you," he tells her and keeps pulling her along and then they take a seat on a bench. 

As they sit down Luhan looks at Yuri and takes in her appearance. "Don't lose yourself," Luhan says and Yuri looks at him with her wide brown eyes, "Never," she says and he smiles. "Before you leave we have to do 10 things that we would never," Luhan proposes and Yuri smiles and nods her head. "Sounds so daring," she says mockingly and Luhan chuckles, "I'm a daring person!" he responds and Yuri looks at him like 'Liar' and he winks causing her to blush and look away. 

Yuri looks back at Luhan and tries to make herself speak but she can't get the words across. "Is one of them...sleeping together," she says and she can feel the blush and uneasiness making her nervous. Luhan sits up and looks at her with wide eyes and then fidgets on the bench, "Yuri no, no. Not like that, just things that are fun and once in a lifetime," he says and she looks at him and he smiles and rubs her cheek. "C'mon," Luhan says standing up and he removes his jacket and tosses it on the bench. "What are you doing?" Yuri says as she stands up slowly and then Luhan smiles and begins to run into sprinklers that went off. "Yuri! Yuri Oak!" Luhan shouts and Yuri looks around and shakes her head. "Yuri! Yuri Oak! I love you with all my heart!" he shouts and the stares from elders and teens begin to increase. Yuri smiles and kicks her sneakers off and runs into Luhan's arms as the cold water hits their bodies.

They laugh and shout as they run around the sprinklers and into them. Everyone walking past would stare but soon lost interest as they thought of them just being dumb kids. Luhan picks up Yuri and spins her around as she clutches onto him screaming. 

When the sprinklers shut off Yuri's arms where around Luhan's neck while his arms rested around her waste. "I love you," she says catching her breath and they rest their foreheads on each other. "No matter how far you go I will always be with you," Luhan say's and Yuri smiles. Luhan closes the inches they are from each others lips and they kiss like its the last.

Luhan walked Yuri back home and when they reached her big house they stopped and Luhan pushed her hair behind her ear. He then stepped closer to kiss her forehead before he put both hands in his pockets and began his walk back all the way to his smaller house. "Luhan!" Yuri shouts and he turns around and she extends her arm holding his jacket. "What?" he says and she shakes the jacket, "what?" he questions again with a smile. "You know what!" she shouts back and he smiles and turns back around to continue walking. "Luhan!" Yuri yells and he waves a hand, "Uh...you dummy," Yuri says and walks into her house and as she closes the gate she slides down and covers her mouth to silence her sobbing. "I love you my dummy," she says to herself as she holds the jacket close to her chest.

 "Uhh...you dummy," Luhan says with a smile and reaches the end of the street, he shivers slightly as the cool breeze mixes with his wet clothes.

When he shuts the door to his room he sees a letter on his bed. He opens it and sits down on his bed. When he reads the last words he drops it and rushes out his house and down the street. 

To My Hannie,

I don't know where to start. Luhan I love you so much and I know that if I told you the truth that you'd never let it happen. I know I said June but actually I'll be leaving for Korea tonight. Why I didn't tell you? Because I can't bring myself to hurt you anymore then I have. Luhan finish your studies, sing always, and stay the same person I love. We will find each other again, soon.

- Love Yuri

When Luhan reached Yuri's house he stopped and dropped to his knees as he saw the red car lights in the distance. "She left," said the old woman who raised Yuri, the nanny, Luhan slammed his fist into the concrete street and his cries echoed throughout the neighborhood. The Nanny made her way over dropping near him and rubbed his back, "She really loves you," she says and he clenches his eyes shut as the tears burn their way down his face. "I'll find her!" he says and looks at his cut hands and hits the floor one last time. The Nanny wipes her own tears and tries soothing Luhan like Yuri had requested. "I'll get her back," he says and looks into the distance at the car no longer there and then to the house that was now dark and the room that was once Yuri's. Luhan sadly smiles as he thought of the time he climbed up to her window and the other nights where she would climb down. His smile vanished as he knew that all of those times where now memories and only snapshots in his mind.
