Chapter 32

(A/N)

Hello my EXOTIC and ARMY readers!! I can't help but thank you all for the 1.K votes. I did not know that this fan fiction will get that many votes or comments. I didn't even think people will read it. While making this fan fiction, I've noticed that the number of people who read and vote were increasing but when I started lagging, it decreased a little. I'm so happy that the people who voted for my story since the beginning is still supporting to this day. Thank you, my amazing readers!! You are truly my SHINING STAR!! (Please don't kill me if you thought that was lame!! (bows down a million times as an apology)

Kristine's P.O.V.

"Luhan...."

Luhan shuts his eyes tightly while I stayed silent. Should I really go on a date with him? Does he like me? No! It can't be. It must be just a friendly date. Just friends going out. Yeah. That's right.

I gave a silent sigh and smile at Luhan who was still shutting his eyes.

"Alright." I said.

"I know. I'm sorry. You wouldn't want to go on a date with me. You must like one of the other guys. I just thought that-" He ranted but stopped. I guess he was replaying what I just said because after pausing for a few minutes, his eyes almost bulged out like how D.O.'s eyes usually look like.

"Wait a minute...... did you just say 'alright'?" He asked. I smile a little and gave him a nod.

"Yeah. I was saying that I am accepting your offer of a date." Luhan stayed in place like a statue. He was like a deer caught in headlights. Hah! Get it? Deer. Ahh! Whatever.

"Really? Y-you sure?" I nod as he went up to me. Right when I was arm reach to him, he pulled me into a tight hug.

"Thank you!! I promise to make our date amazing!" His voice was muffled into my hair. I was a bit embarrassed because my hair still smelled like the ocean but the warmth and comfort his body was radiating calmed me down. I hug him back but I feel him get stiff. I was about to let go and apologize but he pulled me closer to him.

"Don't let go. I was just surprised that you hugged me back." I nod and we continue to hug a bit longer. It wasn't awkward nor was it tense. It was comforting and calm. I loved hugs since I was a baby. If you saw me with my friends back in the Philippines, I would be hugging one of them or putting an arm over their shoulders.

You should be thanking God I let you hug me, Luhan. I didn't even let Jungkook, V, or Jimin hug me. I said mentally.

Luhan hesitantly let's me go and gives me a warm and gentle smile.

"We should go now. The members and Sunbae-nim should be worried about you by now." I nod, agreeing to him and we start walking back together.

"Lu Ge, why are you smiling so much? You look like the Joker from Batman." Tao said right when he saw us. He even went over to Chen and stretched his mouth into a smile.

"Like this. You look like this!" Tao exclaimed. Chen smacked Tao's hands away and massaged the sides of his lips.

"Yah! Stop that. I don't have a smile like the Joker just because I have long lips!!" Chen yelled to the poor panda.

"Back to the subject. Hyung, why are you smiling so widely?" Lay asked with his brows furrowed in confusion.

"I'll tell you when we get to the dorm." Luhan grins even wider. I an surprised his lips don't hurt yet.

"Alright then. Well, I've got to go now. I have morning shift tomorrow at the café. Unnie, let's go?" Unnie nods and stands up from her chair.

Unnie and I got all our things and put them in my trunk. We waved goodbye at the boys and left. Unnie stared at me which made me uneasy so I grip the wheel tighter. The silence felt like unbreakable ice until I heard Unnie speak.

"Spill it. What happened to Luhan and you?"

Luhan's P.O.V.

"Tell us. What happened?" Chen said, seriously. I gulp.

Right when we arrived to the dorm, the boys quickly put our things away and took a shower. When they were done, they all formed a circle in the living room. I was in middle and 11 pairs of eyes stared at me with such seriousness that I felt like I was prey.

"U-ummm" I stuttered while looking at my twiddling fingers like it is the most interesting things in the world.

"He's scared" Xiumin stated. Some boys just stayed staring at me while others calmed down.

"Come on, Luhan. Just tell us. We won't kill you." Suho joked. I gulped. You and Kris may not but the other members who also like Kristine surely will.

"I-I. .... K-Kristine. .... w-with.... me...d-" I stuttered but was cut off by Sehun.

"He asked Kristine out on a date and apparently, she said yes." He muttered with such venom that I cringed a little.

"W-WHAT?!" All 7 of them screamed except Sehun, Kris, Suho, Xiumin, and me. Xiumin had his eyes widened but that was all. Kris and Suho too. Their eyes were kinda wide but not like D.O. eyes.

All 7 boys looked like they were going to strangle me but Suho and Kris helped me. I heard a frustrated sigh come from Sehun who was sitting on a couch with a stoic Xiumin who was staring at the floor.

"Come on. No killing anyone tonight. What will our fans do if they find out someone hurt their precious deer? Let's get some rest" Suho ordered. They all sighed and left to their rooms.

"I suggest you lock your door tonight." Kris told me and went to his room.

I give out a loud sigh and went into my room. I went to sleep right after locking my door.
