Life behind the Stage with EXO

->Chapter 9: I'm fabulous<-

Luhan's POV:

I slowly peak over Lex's bedroom, seeing her still sleeping. Her body so still. If you don't lean in closer, you will think she's a statue. My toes gently glide accross the room. I lean in, and kiss her on the forehead. As quietly as I can, I leave the room and head towards the door, hoping not to wake her up as I grab my things and leave. 

Christmas. So magical. Always full of miracles. Let's just say, "Miracles in December" actually exists.

-Back at the dorm-

"WHERE THE HELL HAVE YOU BEEN?"

Sehun rushes towards me, with his eyes popping out. He looks so worried, that it immidiately makes me feel guilty for not saying anything. The rest of the members gashes out from their rooms, including Baekhyun. He appears at the  corner of the room, like a little lost puppy trying to hide his feelings. 

"Dude seriously, we've been trying to call you, where the hell did you go?", Tao exclaims.

"How about Lex? We've been trying to reach her. Let's call her again.", D.O suggests.

"Don't. You don't have to.", I sigh.

"What do you mean?"

"I..she's alseep at home."

"What? And why would you know?"

Chen's question makes my heart race. I can feel my cheeks heating up, like a volcano threatening to explode. 

"Well... I was at her house last night and stayed.."

"WHAT? WHY DID YOU DO THAT? DUDE SPENDING A NIGHT WITH HER?", Xiumin yells.

"OMG WHAT DID YOU DO? I THOUGHT YOU WERE BETTER THEN THIS!", Kai moans. 

"Woah woah calm your nuts down! We just watched movies and talked and then she fell alseep in her room. I slept in the living room, nothing happened!"

"Easy for you to say, no one else was there. Why did you guys go off all of a sudden anyways?"

"Well... I confessed to Lex before midnight at the venue and then she said...she feels the same towards me so yeah we kind of.."

"Dating?", Lay blurts out.

"Together?", Suho teases.

"Boyfriend and girlfriend? Da faq you in a relationship?", Kris questions.

I look at Baekhyun, feeling so sorry. His sad eyes found mine. They're full of sadness, confusion but somehow comfort is somewhere in there. 

"Baek.. I know you confessed and all, I'm so sorry. I really didn't expect this would happen.. I really am. I'm just.. the biggest jerk I know."

"Well I can't get mad at my favorite hyung now can I? Besides she said no to me on that night because you're already in her heart. There's no way I can force her. As long as she's happy, anything's fine with me."

"Aigoo Baekhyun, don't worry, I can introduce you to heaps of othe girls.", Chanyeol says proudly, as he patts his chest. 

"Aish, Luhannie's now officially taken. Not fair, he was mine.", Sehun complains with a pouty face.

"Oh Sehun you know that..."

"Oh stop it. I was just kidding, I'm not a little kid anymore. Anyhow, if you dare make little Lex upset, I'll crack your head open and feed it to the birds!"

"Yeah! You better remember that!"

"Better be a good boyfriend!"

Their supportiveness make me feel relief and secure. EXO is always my second family. 

"How about the fans? How about the company? Have you ever thought of that?"

"I hope..I hope the company will tolerate it. For now, I want to keep it away from the fans. You know how they're like at school, it would be World War III if the whole fandom knows."

"Ah haha oh not good. But you do know they're gonna know eventually right?"

"I know. It's just that we won't be in the main spotlight forever, some other group will eventually take the spot. By then, fans won't be as crazy as they are, I hope."

"Ha whatever you say."

"EXO will forever be in the spotlight! What you talkin about!"

"EXO Saraenghaeja!"

They collapse on top of me, trying to group tickle me. I laugh under my breath and yell. 

"Ah alright alright! Come on, we've got a packed scheduele today. Oh and Merry Christmas guys!"

Lex's POV:

"Do you think she's awake?"

"Probs not. Oh well we're suppose to go shopping today. "

"Lex? Lex?"

"Wake up! IT'S CHRISTMAS!"

My eyes open blurrily, and spot Jess and Matt hovering over me with their curious eyes. Why am I in bed? My mind searches through my brain for memories, as I remember Luhan tugged me into bed the night before. By the time my senses finally got through me, I jump out of bed.

"Oh shit it's Christmas! Arg I forgot I'm sorry."

"I'm glad we decided to meet at your house early in the morning, other wise Matt and I would be waiting in the cold."

"Oh how did you get in anyways?"

"You brother let us in."

"Cam? What isn't he overseas?"

"He said he returned cause he promised to be with his girlfriend on Christmas day."

"Oh..Jennett..when did he get here?"

"Just now actually, he saw us standing in front of the house. He left already so don't bother talking to him. Just hurry up get dressed, we gotta do some shopping before going to the movies."

"Wait are the shops even open?"

-Palm Face-

"It's THE mall. It opens everyday 24/7 dumbo. Come on let's go!"

-Mall- 

The amount of people shopping today is outrageous. It may be extremely crowded, but that still doesn't stop us from doing our "little" shopping session. Let's just say 6 big bags of clothes, shoes and bags are just half of my goal for today. We head towards an extremely cute christmas stationary shop. The cute sales guy approaches us, as Matthew yelps in excitement.

"Oh my..."

"How can I help you?"

"Ah we're just having a look.."

"OH we actually wanna get this, this that... oh and those and double of those. Thanks."

"Sure I'll get them ready for you. Would you like them to be wrapped?"

"Of courseeeee."

As the salesmen walks away, I consume myself with silent laughter.

"You sure you're not gay?", I say with a wink.

Matthew rolls his eyes in anger. As I get ready to duck his punch, he twists his waist and flips his hair.

"I'm not. I'm a lady and I'm fabulous."
