How's life with EXO?

Chapter 53: You know it

3rd Person

[>] I love you- Mi Rae Yoon
(It's okay, It's love ost)

"Here we are." Lay lets go of Young's weelchair and presented the whole magical scenery from the sky above. He jumped around like a kid who gets to go to an amusement park once in a while. Young just smiles to his oppas cuteness. "Thank you..." She mutters, making Lay stop and another "Thank you..." Looking back at Luhan who was behind her and he just nods.

It's Young's request to go stargazing since the both of them came talking about constellations and everything. Young decided to go there for some air and to lessen the hospital scent for a bit. She was delivered, strolling in a weelchair like a baby with Luhan on watch and Lay pushing her around. Luhan just laughs to the fact that Lay can cope up with these kind of girly things.

While stargazing, she closed her eyes, savoring the sweet flow of the air. It's like years and finally she's free of the bars. Lay looks back to her, but it gets more emotional as Young inhales deeply. Seconds after, Young's smile faded and she started to shed tears. She opened her eyes, red and steamy, she looked towards the dim sky biting her lip and containing her posture. The sound of her breathing was audible enough for her oppas to feel her pain.
Until she said, "Let's just go back to the room."

Lay awestricken, "B-but why? We just got--" Young sniffs. Facing his oppa, her face showing a not so good state of hers. Behind her, there was Luhan who motions him to follow. "A-ah! Oh, right! Sure, will go back now." Lay smiles bitterly, confused of what emotion to show. He's clearly concerned about what's happening that very moment, but he can't make Young notice. He remembered that Young is not the type of person who shares her problems, instead she's hiding them all in one place where she's the only one to know and solve it.

What she said was followed. Going back to her hospital room, her Lay oppa's guard was still standing tall. Looking straight ahead was a big nuisance to him, until Luhan suddenly barricaded him in blitz. "Oppa!" Young shouted and woke up Lay. "Aisssh~" Luhan jerks her head and clicks his tongue. Lay's heart stopped, because of that. "Look where you're heading Lay." Luhan reminds him, worried. They were about to meet an ample of nurses and doctors rushing towards the emergency room, Lay didn't have time to notice them since he's attention was all on Young.

Young looks up to her and asked, "Oppa, are you okay?" Lay didn't respond. Instead, he bit his lip and brushed his nape.

"S-sure."

Lay's POV

Fear. The things I hate. The things I don't want to see. The things I'm worried about. The situation too long that I wanted it to stop. I don't want to say unnecessary things that might put them all in shock. I was entrusted, I should restrain myself from doing such deeds that might affect the whole running system. I mean it's not yet the end, I mean there's a right time. Suho knows me well, that's why he's eyes were perfectly on me. But--

"Lay!" Luhan said waving his hands in front me. He woke me up from this strange dream, ugh. It's been happening so many times now. I don't know why and how, but I guess there's something about my hallucinations that gives me these chills I feel today. "Are you okay?" He then brushes my bangs upward checking if I have a fever. I blinked. Looking at one corner, I woke myself up with a sweet, fresh slap on the right cheek. "Lay! What's happening to you?"

"Nothing." I answerd shortly. I shift my attention to the hospital bed containing Young who's the reason of me being bothered these days. "How is she?" I ask Luhan who looked like he really stayed awake the whole time.

He sat by the end of the sofa, a little close to me and responds, "I think she's fine. She fell asleep crying---"

"Is that fine?!" The weigh in my heart still won't shrink down. It gives me doubt and anger all at the same time.
