"Luhan! Guess what?!" My best friend squeals as I answer my phone.

"What?" I say with a big smile, seeing he's excited about something which automatically makes me smile.

"I told you to guess!" Baekhyun whines as I chuckle and put my pen down.

"Um, you won the lottery." I say as he groans.

"Nooo, guess again." He says as I hum.

"Did you get a new eyeliner?"

"Nooooo!" He says.

"I don't know then." I chuckle as he squeals.

"Sehun just asked me on a date!" He says as my heart drops.

"W-what?" I stutter as my eyes widen.

"I know! I didn't know he even liked me, and he just came to MY HOUSE to ask me to go on a date with him tonight!!! OMOOMOOMO LULU YOU HAVE TO HELP ME FIND AN OUTFIT AN DO MY MAKEUP AND HAIR AND MAYBE I COULD BARROW SOME OF YOUR COLOGNE THAT I LIKE I BET HE'LL LOVE IT!" He squeals as my heart pangs like a rock in my chest.

"Baek-"

"Dude I'm so excited! And he's so handsome and tall-"

"Baekhyun." I say louder, trying to catch his attention.

"Hm?!" He says cheerfully.

"Baek... Y-you know I like Sehun." I say slowly, since I've told Baek millions of times about how much I like him.

"Well.. Yeah, but I liked him too, and I thought that you'd at least be happy that one of us get a chance with him!" He says and I can tell he has a smile on his face.

"You never said you liked him tho-"

"Yeah I did, and if I didn't, I always did think he was so hot! So can you come over tonight?" He says as I bush my eyebrows together.

"N-no, my mom invited my aunt over and wants me here." I say truthfully, but can't help but feel extremely hurt.

"Aw! I'm so nervous! What do you think I should wear?!" He asks as I wonder how he doesn't seem to give a shit about my feelings.

"I-I dunno, Baek, I think my aunts here, I gotta go." I say as my stomach churns.

"Okay, well if I text you during the date then it must be completely boring or awkward you and neeeeeeeeeed to text me back asap!" He says with a chuckle.

"Okay, bye." I say as I hang up, feeling completely hurt and betrayed.

...

"Hey, best friend!" Baek yells on Monday as he hops on me.

"Why didn't you ever text me back over the weekend?" He pouts.

"I got my phone taken away again." I sigh, once again being truthful about that.

"Really? Why?" He asks as I shrug, not wanting to go into details today.

"Well, aren't you gonna ask me how my date went?!" He asks as he jumps up and down.

"How did your date go?" I ask, trying my best not to sound pissed.

"It. Was. Amazing! He took me to a restaurant that looked over the city and it was so beautiful! We talked for a long time and when we were walking home, since we decided to walk, but he gave me his jacket because I was cold! And it smelt so nice and he was such a gentleman, pulling my seat out for me and opening doors. He wants to take me out again too, Luhan! Oh Sehun~" He sings the name as my blood boils.

"What's wrong?" He asks as I quickly look up at him.

"What do you mean?" I say, hoping to seem like I wasn't dying on the inside.

"Are you mad at me?" He asks as he moves to stand in front of me, stopping us both from walking.

"N-no, I'm not mad. Why would you think I was mad?" I ask, hoping he might actually realize what's wrong.

"I don't know! You should be jumping and screaming with me but you aren't! Why are you being like this?" He asks as I shake my head.

"N-no, I am happy for you, j-just.." I begin before spotting Sehun, who spots us.

"Just what?" He says as I quickly look away.

"Nothing, listen, I gotta get to class, I'll see you at lunch." I say as he pouts while I leave before Sehun could get there because I couldn't stand to see them together.

...

*after lunch*

"Lu, can I have some water?" Sehun asks like usual.

"I didn't get an extra today." I mumble, not looking his way.

I got into the habit of buying Sehun a water for after lunch since he always played basketball at lunch then would down all of mine.

"Aw! Why not?" He pouts as I cross my legs and keep my head down.

"Because I didn't." I say as I lift my left hand up to rest my head on but also so I can hide my face from him.

"Do you have any water?" He asks.

"No-"

"But I can see a bottle in your backpack." He objects as my face heats up.

"Sehun, give it back!" I growl as I try to grab my bottle away from him be he holds it just our of my reach.

"Why can't I have any?!" He whines with a grin.

"Because I said so, stop messing with me." I huff as I snatch it back, throw it in my backpack, and move my backpack to the other side of me.

"Are you mad at me?" He asks as I begin doing my work once again while people around us talk to each other so we aren't the only ones talking.

I don't give him an answer, I just continue working before he asks me again but this time pokes my arm.

"Leave me alone, Sehun." I say in a much harsher tone than intended but I just can't believe that he took my best friend on a date.

Like, how stupid do you have to be?! I made it so fucking obvious that I liked you! I wouldn't just waste two-fifty every day to buy someone I wasn't very close with a water to make them happy! I wouldn't go to stupid basketball games with a sign I made for them just because I wanted to be their friend. I wouldn't want to tell someone I didn't think was cute that I thought they looked cute when they wore certain clothes that look good on them or styled their hair a different way. I wouldn't give someone money for food, or my own food just because I wanted to be their friend. I can't believe that you took my best friend who you don't even talk to on a date, I can't believe my best friend accepted.

...

"Hey, why are you mad at me?" Sehun says as he catches up to me in the hall.

"Stop it." I growl as I pull his hand off my shoulder.

"Luhan, whatever I did I'm sorry, will you please just tell me what it is?" He asks before grabbing my hand and pulling me out of the main hall and into a less crowded one.

"Why do you care so much? Just leave me alone, I'm not your water boy." I say as push him off me and hurry to my next class.

As the week went by Baekhyun and Sehun got closer, and I started to feel extremely uncomfortable. Especially when Baekhyun decided to leave our group to go eat lunch with Sehun instead of us.

That's when I couldn't help but start playing dirty.

"Hey, Lu!" Chanyeol says as he hurries over to me during their lunch practice.

"Hey." I smile, seeing I've been talking more to Sehun's best friend in one of the classes I have with him.

"Are you coming to our game tonight?" He asks as he sighs from being out of breath. 

"I don't know..." I begin before he starts begging.

"Do you want some water?" I chuckle as he continues panting.

"You have some?" He says with a smile.

"Yeah, here." I say as I pull off my backpack and give hand it to him.

"Thanks, Hyung!" He says cheerfully.

"You can have as much as you want, I can buy another before lunch is over if you want to finish it." I say as he nods and smiles.

"I really want you to come tonight! Maybe even make me a poster if you wanted. I always see the ones you make for Sehun and they're really nice!" He says as I chuckle.

"Okay, well I'll think about it." I say with a teasing smile as he chuckles.

"Now get back to work! You have a game tonight that you need to win!" I say as he chuckles and nods before hurrying back over to the court.

I make slight eye contact with Sehun but act like I didn't as I leave.

Sehun lost his good luck charm to someone else.

...

"You're making that one for Channie?" Baek asks with a smile as we buy he paper to make the posters on.

"Yep." I say seeing he bought paper to make Sehun one.

"Will you help me with what to write on it? Because yours are always really good and clever!" He gushes.

"I'm sure you can think of something." I mumble as we walk to his car.

"So... Could I do, 94 is gonna score?" He asks.

"If you want to." I say, seeing I used that one before.

"What else could I do?" He asks as we leave to his house.

"I don't know, I'm trying to think of ones to do for sixty one." I say.

"Sixty one, is no fun." He jokes.

"Yeah, I'll put that on it." I chuckle as he laughs.

"Ninety four, is a whore? Lets do those." He says as I laugh and hit his arm.

When we get to his house we get started on the posters, me putting "61 with the guns is gonna win the game!" Lame, I know, but I know Chanyeol will love it.

After a few minutes of arguing with Baek about calling "94" a whore, he puts down "94 is gonna score"

I'll admit that the whole time we were doing them, I tried to make mine look better, which it does because Baek's never made one before. But I didn't let Baek make it look bad, I told him how he should do it but didn't touch the paper, I didn't want Baekhyun to end up telling Sehun that I helped.

When we get back to school since it was a home game, we go find seats and wait for it to start. There was a little trash chanting going on before the game, everyone just yelling that their teams gonna win but of course ours will.

When they come out, we all yell and cheer with Baekhyun aggressively waving it back and forth making it hard not to laugh. When I look away from Baek and at the game, I catch Sehun's eye and he looks upset slightly before looking over at Baek and waving.

I hope you're mad!!!-.-

Ever since my sophomore year when Sehun came as a freshman, I made him posters, Baek didn't really ever go to games and I was fine going alone because I wanted to cheer him on. But now he wants Baekhyun, so I won't be doing things for him anymore... AISH HE'S MAKING ME SO MAD!!!!>_<

I can tell Chanyeol's more than pleased about my poster, even telling Sehun to look at it while he smiles like a weirdo. Wave to him and he waves back happily before I yell;

"Go 61!" While Sehun looks away from up here.

Sehun begins playing different as well, he's being more clumsy but Chanyeol is luckily saving it. Chanyeol even makes the winning basket making us jump up and cheer for him before going down there.

"Good job, Chanyeol!" I say as he pulls me into a tight hug and even spins me around.

"DID YOU SEE THAT! I MADE A THREE POINTER!" He says as I laugh.

"I know! That was so cool! I guess your guns did with the game!" I chuckle as I show him the poster while Baek does the same with Sehun.

"Sehun was right about you being a lucky charm! And I love the poster! This is the best I've ever gotten!" He says as he hugs me again.

"I'm glad you like it." I say as I look over his should and catch Sehun's eye just before he bends down to kiss Baekhyun.

My stomach sinks and I my eyes immediately begin burning as I quickly look away and let go of Chanyeol.

"I-I gotta go, can you tell Baek the my mom came to get me." I say as I use his body like a shield from the painful sight.

"Y-yeah sure, is everything okay?" He says as I nod quickly and look up at him.

"Y-yeah, yeah, I'm just really happy for you." I say as he smiles.

"Thanks for the poster, I hope you'll make me another for our next game!" He says as I chuckle soft.

"We'll see." I sigh, never wanting to come to another one of these goddamn games again.

I quickly mix myself into the crowd and leave outside while blowing the shit out of my moms phone with texts.

"Mom, will you please come get me and fast!" I beg.

"What? What happened?" He says quickly as I hurry to where he usually picks me up from school.

"Mom! Please just come get me! I'm at school and I'll explain in the car!" I beg.

"Namjoon! I'll be back, Luhan's in trouble-" He calls to dad making me stressed.

"I'm not in trouble, mom! Well if you don't hurry I will be!" I whine as I try to hide in the crowd so none of them will see me.

"I'm coming right now, baby. Momma will be there is two shakes of a lamb chop-"

"Isn't it two shakes of a stick?" I can't help but chuckle.

"Do you want me to be there fast or not?" He asks as I apologize and tell him to shake that lamb chop.

It doesn't take him long to get here and when he does I jump in the car and tell him to go multiple times before he speeds off.

"Lulu, what's wrong?" He asks as he slowly break down once were out of schools sight.

I can't help but let out a soft sob as I cover my face and try to keep myself from crying but it's not working.

He pulls over and parks the car before pulling me into a hug.

"Did you get in a fight?" He asks softly.

"No." I hiccup as pain courses through my veins.

"Did our team lose?" He then asks as I roll my eyes.

"Yeah mom, I'm crying over our stupid team losing!" I say as he chuckles a sorry.

"I'm guessing it had to do with the boy on said "stupid team" hm?" He asks as I nod.

"Want mama to go run him over? I have a screw driver that you could take the license plates off the car with-"

"Mom!" I whine as he chuckles again and rubs my back.

"What'd he do?" He asks before kissing the top of my head.

"He kissed Baekhyun." I say as I sob harder.

"What? Doesn't Baek know you like him?"

"Yes! That's why I'm so freaking pissed off! I don't know what to do!" I say with another sob.

"I think I know what to do." He says before letting me go and getting back on the road.

...

"Thank you, have a nice day." The man in the window says as my mom hands me the bag with our ice cream in it.

"Thanks, mom." I mumble as I try not to replay the scene in my mind that I just can't seem to get out.

"You know what we'll do? We are gonna go to the mall and buy you all new clothes-"

"Mom, clothes aren't going to help." I pout.

"Okay, do you want to get your hair cut, maybe dye it if you wanted-"

"Mom, I don't want to change my hair-"

"Why? There are so many possibilities with it since it's so long!" He gushes as I pout.

"Everything just happened like this past week, I don't want to make it obvious-"

"Well you know what, you aren't doing it for anyone other than yourself, Lu baby. Don't let yourself believe that you're changing yourself to make anyone like you better or worse, it's for you and you only." He says as he holds my hand.

"Okay, mom." I sigh.

"So do you want to go shopping?!" He with with sparkles in his eyes.

"No, mom! Not today." I whine as he pouts.

"Fine, but we are tomorrow morning since it's the weekend."

"But that's too early!"

"We can leave around ten, and spend the whole day bringing out my inner beauty in you." He says as I roll my eyes and pull my hand away.

"But I look nothing like you or appa! What if inner appa comes out!???! I don't want to look like a turtle!" I whine as he laughs and objects.

"A: your father is not a turtle, B: I carried you around in me for nine months so you better be grateful that I'm allowing you to look as beautiful as I,  and C: Inner appa is more of his personality, less of his looks..." He says as I roll my eyes again.

...

Just like mom said, he got me up at eight thirty and told me to get myself breakfast and showered before dragging me to the mall. He forced me to a few different places and fills up my arms for clothes to try on only to buy like one of two of them. I don't mind, because in all honesty I really do enjoy shopping, walking around, and spending time with my mom.

"Come on, Lu! You should try it! If you don't like it then you can grow it back out and never do it again." Mom says as he begs me to get my hair dyed.

"Mom!" I whine before eventually giving in.

He takes me to his hair salon and has the man that does his hair do mine for he first time.

"Hi, Tao! This is my son, Luhan." My mom said as he tells me to sit down in the seat in front of Tao.

"It's nice finally meet you, your mother's told me so much about you." He beams as he brushes out my hair.

"So what were you looking to do today?" He asks as mom shrugs.

"He wants to dye his hair but we aren't sure what color, what do you suggest?" Mom asks as he plays with my hair a bit.

"I have a few ideas..." He says with a grin.

...

It looks good, it looks really good, but my butt hurts from sitting for so long...-.-

I'm a bit in hair shock right now, but I like it, just going from dark brown to blonde is a huge step.

"What do you think?" He asks with a smile.

"I like it, I like it a lot." I say as I stare at myself in the mirror.

"Are you sure? You look petrified." He chuckles.

"N-no! I'm just shocked, but I look really good with it! It just... Wow." I say as I run my fingers through my surprisingly soft hair.

"I think you should cut it a bit too, maybe do that thing that all the kids are doing now with the short sides and long on the top." My mom suggests.

"But I don't wanna be like everyone one else!" I whine as Tao chuckles.

"You won't, I once again have the prefect idea for you." He says before explaining what he thinks I should do.

...

"Mom! I didn't know you bought these ones! I told you they're too tight!" I whine as he helps me put my new clothes away.

"But they looked so good on you that I had to buy them anyways! Let's pick out your outfit for Monday!" He says excitedly as he begins going over all my new options.

"What's the weather gonna be like on Monday?" He asks as I get on my phone and go to the weather app.

"Cold, the high is sixty six." I say.

"That's not cold, it's so sad that autumn is ending, but you always looked good in a nice long sleeve." He says as he pulls one of my new sweaters out. 

"Here, wear this on Monday. Gosh! You look so handsome! My baby boy is growing up!" He says as he pulls me into a hug.

"Okay, momma's gonna go start dinner." He says before leaving to the kitchen.

Almost as if on cue, my phone begins ringing making me sigh since I'm guessing it's Baek.

"Hello?" I say before someone else's voice answers.

"Hey, Lu! I needs to ask you something, are you busy?" Minseok asks as I sit down on my bed.

"No, what's up?" I ask.

"Well, I know it's none of my business, but like... Don't you like Sehun?" He asks as I sigh.

"Yeah..."

"Didn't you tell Baek?"

"I did."

"Why is he going out with him then? I'm not trying to start anything but I was so confused when I saw them together and I had to ask! I hope you don't mind." He says.

"No, no I don't. I'm glad someone else noticed. I don't even know why Baekhyun said yes to going on a date with him in the first place. He knew I liked him then called me and told me last weekend that they were going on a date! I got upset and was like, well Baek, you know I like him, and he was just like, 'oh, well I like him to and at least one of us gets a chance with him!' How messed up is that?" I ask as he agrees with me.

"I'm sorry, but that's not something thing best friends should do." He grunts as I sigh and nod.

"I know... He doesn't even seem to care!" I whine.

"I really am sorry, Lu. That's all I wanted to say." He explains.

"Okay, well, I'll see you Monday, thanks for calling me." I say before we say our goodbyes and hang up.

...

As I arrive at school, I can't help but become nervous as to what people are going think about my hair. It's making me so nervous!>.<

"L-Luhan??" I hear and turn to find Chanyeol hurrying to catch up with me with big eyes.

"You're hair is blonde!" He says as I quickly grab it.

"Really?!" I joke before he nudges me with his elbow and laughs.

"God, it looks good, really good. I almost didn't recognize you though! I like it a lot!" He says before so thank him.

"Where are you off to this early Monday morning?"

"To the table me and my friends usually meet at, why?" I ask as we begin walking together.

We talk a little and I ask him not to tell people because by people I mean Sehun, and if Sehun finds out early, then so will Baek, and I want to surprise Baek, but also Sehun>_< I hate myself...

After he agreed we ended up going out separate ways with me going to the small yard we have between class buildings that have some trees and tables.

I try to sneak to the tables they're at, texting them I'm coming from the opposite way I really am before sitting down and hiding my face in my arms on the table.

"Uh, excuse me?" Minseok says softly as he pokes my shoulder.

"Yes?" I say as I look up at them with a smile as they begin freaking out.

"OMG, LU I DIDN'T KNOW THAT WAS YOU I WAS FREAKING OUT ABOUT SOME RANDOM GUY COMING AND SITTING NEXT TO US!" Baek squeals as he gets up and comes around the table to wrap his arms around me.

"You look so hot! Damn! Go best friend that's my best friend!" He sings as he plays with my hair making me chuckle.

"Does it look okay?" I ask as Minseok and Kyungsoo nod, telling me the same as Baekhyun.

I end up telling them that I'd been planning to do this for a while to make it seem like it wasn't just out of the blue before the bell rings to get to class. Many people give me compliments making me feel extra ready... To see Sehun.ㅠ_ㅠ

Today is the first day since last Wednesday that Baek sat with us making me curious and slightly happy, maybe something bad happened between them.>:)

"So guys, I have to tell you all something." Baek says as we sit down with our lunches.

"Yes?" We all answers, me trying not to sound as excited as I am.

"This weekend, Sehun asked me to be his boyfriend!" He says excitedly and Kyungsoo and Minseok congratulate him while I try to do the same thing. But it's almost impossible.

I don't understand, I don't understand Baekhyun, I don't understand Sehun, I don't understand boys in general even though I am one! I could cry right now, or yell at Sehun for choosing the wrong person to date, but I can't. Because that person is my best friend.

AN// New story! Wow, another one again! Yes! Because it's summer and I read this "vent letter" on Instagram a while ago and I won't say what it said yet but later if you guys are still curious, I'll tell you. But it inspired me to write a one shot, then I made it longer, and now we're here!

I really hope you guys enjoy it and I seriously love the cover I made for it like it took me maybe forty minutes because I was distracted by the tv -.- but I think it came out really well! What do you guys think??
