Kyungsoo stopped to adjust his hoodie. The August day was a chilly one, and Kyungsoo did not like the cold, or the fact that he was only wearing a small hoodie to protect himself from it. Once he makes it as warm as possible, which isn't really that much, he picks up all bags he had set down and started walking down the sidewalk again. Kyungsoo was about to start a new chapter of his life in university, and today was the day he was leaving.
It took him a while to make his mom stop fussing over him and to just let him go, but now he was on his way to the bus stop. Actually, now he might be late if he doesn't hurry. Kyungsoo starts to walk faster, thinking of his friend who was waiting for him there at the bus stop. If Kyungsoo was late, they would probably get on the bus without him. Which Kyungsoo wouldn't mind, he would hate to make Sehun miss the bus because of him.
Progress was slower than Kyungsoo liked, but he couldn't help it; his bags were heavy and, even though he foresaw this problem, he didn't want to damage his pride by asking for help. So here he was, struggling to carry all of his things. It was times like these that he wanted a car, but he had never been able to afford one.
Kyungsoo shook his head, as if to dispel his thoughts of finances and to just focus on the path in front of him. He got a scholarship to this college, anyway, so he wouldn't have to worry about paying for school. Kyungsoo was actually surprised to have got into this college, and with a scholarship! It was already hard to get into this place normally, but he got in and didn't have to worry about having to pay for a place to stay or the costs of books.
"Finally, you're here. I was starting to think that I was going to have to leave you." A familar voice broke Kyungsoo out of his thoughts. He smiled up at -his pride hurt everytime he had to look up to the kid- Sehun, his bestest friend since he could remember.
Sehun looked good -he always did- in a long tan trench coat, with a black shirt and dark jeans underneath. To top it all off, he had on a black cap and sunglasses. Sehun's family was pretty wealthy, so he always had on designer brands. Kyungsoo, with his worn black hoodie and faded jeans, looked like a hobo in comparsion. Sehun face and tone said he was annoyed, but Kyungsoo could tell he had worried where Kyungsoo was.
"Sorry I wasn't fast enough for your liking, Your Highness, but my mom was worrying over me and how I was going to survive at a big new university. Oh, and she gave me this for you." Kyungsoo put all of his bags on the ground in a pile, being careful with them, even though they were being put ontop of one another. When he was finished, he took a plastic bag out of his hoodie pocket and handed it to Sehun. Inside, fresh-baked cookies.
Sehun, dropping his annoyed facade, smiled like a child getting the birthday present he wanted. He swiftly took the bag and started to munch on one of the cookies.
"Sooooooooooo gooooood!" Sehun moaned, closing his eyes to enjoy the flavor, "Mom always takes so good care of me, tell her that I say thank you." Kyungsoo knew why his mom always takes care of Sehun; Sehun's parents, although rich, are never around and never really show that they care about Sehun. Kyungsoo's mom felt bad for him, so she treats him like he is Kyungsoo's brother, feeding him and letting him spend the night, talking to him about grown-up things, and making sure he stays out of trouble.
"I'll thank her when I call her tonight." Kyungsoo said, his eyes sparkling with fondness as he looked at Sehun. Sehun was a year younger than him, still in highschool, but he was going with Kyungsoo to this new town because his parents have a house there, and he didn't want to say goodbye to Kyungsoo. Sehun was very popular, even when he came out last year, but the only person at their highschool that Sehun wanted to be friends with was Kyungsoo.
Kyungsoo loved Sehun like a brother and would do anything for him, and he was glad that Sehun had decided that he was going to move. Kyungsoo, even though he didn't want to admit it, was scared of what was going to happen to him, and knowing that he would still see a familar face made it a little less terrifying.
Maybe this won't be so bad. Kyungsoo thought, still watching Sehun nibble away at his cookie. Maybe university life won't kill me. Just as he thought this, the bus arrived and the bravery of the moment went away and he was a baby again. But Sehun, who had finished eating the cookie and put the rest away for later, smiled at Kyungsoo, grabbed his bag -only a backpack, Sehun already had his things at his parents other house- and a few of Kyungsoo's bags, and hopped on the bus. Kyungsoo, quietly thanking Sehun, grabbed the rest of his things and got on and found a window seat, right behind Sehun, coincidently. Time for a new life. The small bus stop was the last thing Kyungsoo saw of his little town, his old life. But, for some odd reason, he was happy and ready for a new start, and he had this foreboding feeling of something good happening at the university. What of? Kyungsoo didn't know. But he was ready to find out.This is my first ever fanfiction, so I hope you like it. If you have any constructive criticism, then feel free to share it!
