I spend the morning  with Luhan eating and walking around . He tried very hard to make me smile but something was holding me back . It was now 4 o'clock and we sat in a park at the swings  after eating lunch.

Luhan laughed an hold his belly
"Ahh, I'm so stuffed" he said looking at me and I smiled at him

"Hehe yeah...," trailed off and looked at the ground while swinging slightly.

"I have to tell you something." The seriousness in his voice made me look at him and I gulped .

"Shoot." I said nervously.

"I like you. No , I ... I think... I love you." He said and looked at me expectantly.

My eyes widened lightly and my lips parted. He leaned in and kissed me. His lips were soft and moved sweetly against my still ones .

What's going on ? I ... I like Luhan . He's kind and sweet and he likes me . But..
Why can't I kiss him back ?
Why does my heart hurt ?
Why doesn't this feel right ?
Why can't I ... like him the way he likes me ?

Questions ran in my mind and I grew more and more confused as Luhan pulled back. He looked at me and I noticed the tears in his eyes.

"Don't forget me okay ?" He whispered and quickly stood up and left before I could even react.

I sat there for a long time my thoughts running wild before I remembered that I had work . I looked at the time on my phone and it read 5:45 PM

Shit! I'm late.

Right at that moment my boss called me and started yelling at me for being late . I coughed and pretend to be sick . I apologized for not notifying sooner and hung up.

I stood up and walked home where I spend the rest of the day trying to sort out my messed up head.

The next day , I avoided the guys as much as I could going out of my way just to avoid meeting them. At the end of the day I stood next to the big table in the courtyard under the shade the tree provided me . I was drawing a bird on my sketchbook when I heard footsteps.

I looked up and saw then all, except Luhan, coming towards me with their heads lowered. My eyes met with Suga's and we both looked away quickly. When they were near I stood up and smiled .

"Why the long faces ? This is a beautiful day to be happy. " I said and looked at the people who would be leaving soon.

Kai looked at me and smiled ;
"Yeah! Nabi's right you guys we shouldn't be sad !" He hid his sadness behind a smile and hugged me from the side 

Soon we were all seated and laughing , giving the EXO members a warm goodbye full of love and happiness.

I didn't dare to ask about Luhan. The strange look in Sehuns eyes told me not to . In the middle of a joke 2 black vans pulled up and we all knew it was time to go.

We shared hugs and kisses and as they were leaving Kai gave me a note , carefully folded with my name written on it. He hugged me tightly as if he was scared of letting me go.

"You are like my little sister. I will always love you." He whispered quietly , his tears soaking my shirt.

"All you need to do is send me a message and I will be there in a second, alright ?I love you, too."
I whispered back and he let go , walking slowly to the black van where the rest waited .

As the door opened I caught a glimpse of Luhan and smiled at him. He looked at me sadly and before the door closed he turned away from me.

A warm hand hugged my shoulders and the calming voice of Jin told me it's time to go . I lingered there for a minute longer looking at the place where the vans once were and I realized tears were dripping down my face .

I wiped them and turned to look at the sad faces of my friends . With a reassuring smile I said:

"So, lunch?"

And so the day went on like water flowing down the river. Calm and peaceful.
