17 - Lost

It was morning when Sumin woke up by Baekhyuns kiss on her head. She rubbed her eyes and sat up as he leaned down to reach her level. "I have to leave now, princess." Baekhyun said quietly and chuckled when he noticed how Sumin spread her arms to hug him tightly. He got sadder and held her as close as possible.

"I'm going to miss you so much." Sumin stood up and pouted as she looked up into his eyes. She already teared up and Baekhyun couldn't stand it anymore. He pulled her closer against him and kissed her deeply, not wanting this moment to end.

As he let go of her, he heard Sumins quiet sobs. He kissed her cheek and nose, lastly her forehead as he stepped back. "I'm going to be late." He whispered and kissed her hands as he walked together with her out of the bedroom. Sumin nodded her head and followed Baekhyun to the door to send him off, still sobbing while they walked together, hand in hand.

It wasn't easy for her since her feelings grew bigger and bigger for him. Letting him go for a long time was breaking her apart but what could she do? It was his job and she had no right to tell him otherwise.

"Baekhyun I-"

"I promise to call you when I arrive. And I'll try to text you every time I'm free, don't forget that." He smiled and hugged her tightly after putting on his jacket.

"I need to tell you someth-"

"Also, promise me that you won't let yourself down. I'm always here and you can message me when you don't feel good."

"Baekhyun, I love you!" Sumin said loudly and stared at him. It wasn't easy for her  to say those words loudly, but it had to come out. She wanted to tell him that before he leaves and it happened.

Baekhyun gulped loudly as he heard those three words leaving her mouth. He didn't expect this from her to say it first, but it made him happy when he could hear that sentence on repeat. His smile grew bigger on his face and he stepped closer to her to finally place a kiss on her lips.

"I love you too." He whispered and held her cheeks in his hands.

As soon as he stepped away, he entered the elevator and Sumins eyes followed his body. Her heart broke as he left the girl on the door frame, all alone.

"Six months, he will come back as soon as possible." She sighed to herself as she closed the door, not daring to go back to her room where they once laid together.

It was the Prom day and Sumin took a long shower before she was about to get ready and she took her time as her hair dried on the cool air after leaving the fogged room. Sitting in front of her desk, she started to apply some foundation on her face after her sparkly eyeshadow was done.

Her eyes were shining and she smiled at herself, applying some peach colored lipstick on her lips afterwards. The lips popped and Sumin ruffled her almost dried hair, trying to focus on the time but her phone started to ring loudly as she got ripped out of her thoughts. Quickly reaching out for it, she screamed in joy when she saw Baekhyuns name.

"Hey, princess." Baekhyun was lying on his bed and smiled widely at the girl as she sat in front of the camera before she continued on her styling procession.

"Hi. You arrived?" She smiled at him and curled her hair. Sumin noticed how he stared at her face, filling his brain with every move she did since it was the most beautiful thing he ever saw.

"Yes, we arrived an hour ago. We're in the hotel right now and I just wanted to check up on you. Looks like you don't even miss me at all." Baekhyun bit on his lip and smirked as the girl chuckled shyly at his comment.
