Kyungsoo

I had only been asleep for about an hour when I heard a soft ping on my window. Furrowing my eyebrows in confusion, I got up and pulled back the curtains, seeing Kai standing by the front door.

"Kai?" I questioned, now even more bewildered. I swiftly got out of bed and went downstairs, opening the door. "What are you doing here this late? How did you even get here?" 

"I stole my mom's car," he said matter-of-factly. "I just...I needed to see you." 

There was something in his voice that made me begin to worry. I wanted to ask him why, but I figured he probably wouldn't want to talk about it. At least not right now.

"Come inside then. It's kind of cold out here," I said, holding the door open for him. I closed it once he was inside, watching him slide his shoes off. "It's safe to say your parents don't know you're here then."

"No. I snook out after they went to bed," he replied. I gave him a worried look and he just sighed. "I know I shouldn't be here, but I just need you right now." 

The sad look in his eyes confirmed to me something was wrong. I just didn't know what.

"Okay, I guess you can stay the night," I said, forcing a smile despite all my worries. He smiled a little and then we both went upstairs, getting under the warm covers of my bed. He wrapped his arm around me, letting his arm act as my head rest. 

"You know that no matter what happens I'll always love you, right? Nothing would ever change that," he said suddenly. His question to catch me off guard, but nonetheless, it made me happy.

"Yeah, I love you, too," I said softly in reply. 

"And that no matter how far apart we might be one day, I'll never stop loving you?" 

At this point, I was becoming more suspicious. "Yeah."

"And that no matter how many other people come into my life you'll always be the only one for me?" 

I waited a few seconds to say anything that time. I didn't know what was up with all these question suddenly, but they didn't give me a good feeling.

"Yeah, I know," I said. "But why would you ask--"

"Good," he cut me off, holding me tighter all of a sudden. 

Whatever was bothering him, he clearly didn't want to talk about it. So, I just tried to forget about it and enjoy my time with him. I never knew when he could be taken away after all.

Kai

The date I was supposed to be leaving was getting closer. Everything was official. The school knew and I was officially crossed off the list of graduating students. I still hadn't told him. Just the thought of telling him and breaking his heart broke mine. I think it was all just happening so fast, too fast. I wanted to make every happy second we had together last.

"I can't believe that," Xiumin said. He was the first person I told. "What kind of parents force their child to move because they fell in love?"

"My kind of parents," I said. He looked at me and I sighed as he shook his head.

"Did you try to convince them they were being irrational?"

"Yes. I tried so hard. I even said I'd break up with him. They just can't see the normal in a guy being in love with another guy." He let out a frustrated sigh in response. "But right now, I'm just trying to find a way to tell Kyungsoo."

"You still haven't told him?" he questioned. I shook my head. "Jesus, Kai. You're screwed."

"Gee thanks for telling me something I already know," I replied.
