Let's Make a Pact With My Best Friend

                                    

                                          
Je Ri's POV (An hour before Luhan left).
                          
"Je Ri."
                          
A voice called me. 
                          
"Je Ri," the voice called again.
                          
"Never forget that I'm with you."
                          
"Who..?" I asked.
                          
The voice laughed. He sounded like my age.
                          
"Younghae?"
                          
"That's right," the voice confirmed.
                          
"You are very right." 
                          
Younghae appeared in front of me for a moment. He was my age. The similar green eyes shimmered back. The dream shifted.
                          
"Y-Younghae! Don't-"
                          
I tried to reach for him.
                          
"Je Ri!" he shouted, sounding panicked as he tried to grab my hand.
                          
Something hit me in the face.
                          
"Je Ri!"
                          
                                                                                ~~~
                          
"JE RI!"
                          
Luhan hit my face gently again as my eyes shot open. He stared at me closely with a worried expression. I realized I was gripping his shirt tightly and I let go.
                          
"Are you okay?" he asked, frowning.
                          
"You were...yelling Younghae's name..."
                          
Alan was still sleeping. Unless...he was pretending like we all do. He wanted to see how Luhan would deal with these situations. Typical Alan.
                          
I took a breath and sat up next to Luhan. 
                          
"L-Lu..." I tried.
                          
Next thing you know, I started crying before even finishing his name.
                          
Again.
                          
I probably cried over 10 times this week, but who cares? I missed Younghae. It literary hits me every time that he was gone. I'm not going to go through a long story and complain about how Younghae did nothing to deserve this and such nonsense. The world is cruel and unfair. Period.
                          
Luhan immediately hugged me. He rested my head on his shoulder and he patted my back. He didn't say anything much. The usual "It's alright" and "It'll be okay" came out. Also "How can that wolf sleep when she's crying?"
                          
Luhan patted my head when my crying became sniffles. I was thankful. Thankful to realize that I actually have so many people in my life and...I can't believe I used to be ungrateful at times. Some people have it worse than me. Even if the whole world hated me, I'm glad to have the friends that will care about me. I'm glad to have my family.
                          
I'm very glad.
                          

(One hour later, when Luhan woke up).
                          
I was snuggled against Luhan's shoulder, since I fell asleep after crying. It tends to happen a lot. It was all snuggly and warm, except I dreamt that it was Lay hugging me.
                          
Lay. He's so sweet.  
                          
Right. He kissed my cheek earlier today at school and revealing his healing powers that who knows how long he knew about? You would think I would be fangirling, but I almost forgot about it since, oh, uhm, you know, the school is destroyed most likely because of me or Luhan, students got hurt, and Young Min is in the hospital. It's really the last thing I would be thinking about.
