Promise? Promise. (Exo Xiuhan/Lumin)

Promise

SO, I was wondering if I should post this today, or tomorrow. But I decided I would post it today. THIS IS THE FINAL PART. And... I have an idea for a parallel storyline, which could result in a lot of short stories, if any of you are interested. Well, I don't have very much selfconfidence so I dunno... Well, I hope you've enjoyed this ^^/

"Water?" he guessed, and Luhan nodded.

Minseok shook his head, extremely confused. "But then, why were you... How did you become... Wait. You never were?" it was like he couldn't even complete one sentence. Everything was spinning. Did this mean he had just confessed to Luhan? And why was Luhan kissing him?

Luhan half-smiled. "I guess so," he said, with only half the confidence he had before. Minseok didn't feel angry, which he probably should’ve been. He didn't even feel betrayed, or empty. Just...  Concerned. Confused.

"But, why?" he asked.

Luhan shrugged. "Confidence-boost? I didn't really have the courage to do anything before. You were awesome, and I just couldn't afford to not do anything. Is this what you call... Love at first sight? Something like that. So, I figured that if I drank, or at least pretended to drink, I'd feel more confident. I'm... I'm sorry, Minseok."

Minseok knew he should've felt angry. But he didn't. All he could think about was what Luhan had said. 'Love at first sight.' Had it really been like that? If it wasn't like that for Minseok, it had at least been love in the first ten minutes, if that was a thing.

So, after a minute of silence, with only the muted sound of the music inside as company, Minseok smiled. "What's your number?" he asked.

Luhans eyes widened, and Minseok grinned. Luhan was stunned, and he was the one to make him like that. Minseok could get used to that. Surprised Luhan was both cute and handsome at the same time.

As Luhan quickly wrote his number on a small piece of paper he found in his pocket, Minseok looked up at the sky and wondered if there was something supernatural about this. He had never been so lucky in all his life.

Luhan gave Minseok the paper, and smiled. It was an honest smile, which suited Luhan the best.

And then, after Minseok had put the paper in his pocket, they just stood there, watching each other. It wasn't awkward. It was more like, they didn't dare look away, as if the other person could suddenly disappear.

After something that seemed like an eternity, Minseok broke the silence. He sipped his water, and smiled. "Well, are you just going to stand there?"

Luhan closed the distance between him and Minseok in two steps, and their foreheads touched. Luhan put his hand on the back of Minseok’s head, and he felt shivers go down his spine.

"Do you promise," Luhan whispered, looking seriously into Minseok's eyes. "To call me as soon as you get home?"

Minseok couldn't do anything but nod, feeling the hot breath of the other boy on his lips. His confidence just melted with Luhan so close. Ten centimeters. That was the distance between their lips. Then, it wasn't ten centimeters anymore. It was zero. They sealed their promise with a kiss. It wasn't a peck, like the first time. Neither was it like the second time, when it felt fake. No, this time it was different. It was passionate, and both Luhan and Minseok poured all of their feelings into it. And so, Minseok opened his mouth just enough to slip something into Luhans. Then he let go of Luhan, smiled, bit his lip, and ran into the black night.

And Luhan was left stunned outside the front door, looking after the beautiful boy that disappeared into the dark. He smiled for himself, with a melting ice cube in his mouth, as the only thing left after the boy, except a faint tingling in his chest.

Not did he take the ice cube out of his mouth, and not did he see the inscription on it. Promise.
