The Brunet Next Door (Chanbaek ff)

Back In Your Arms Again

Hi everyone! This is the last chapter and sorry if this took long. That time of the month came and it felt like shit (both physically and emotionally, seriously, i wanna quit being a girl and just be a boy to find my own boy lol.) I had a hard time cheering myself up because of freaking hormones. Next will be the epilogue.  Please look forward to it!

Baekhyun snuggled closer to Chanyeol and purrs when he felt the giant's warmth. Chanyeol chuckled, pinching Baekhyun's cheeks. They're at Chanyeol's balcony at the moment, sitting on the mini tent they have set up earlier. It was Baekhyun's idea, since he wanted to catch up with Chanyeol and to celebrate their first night as a couple. 

"Love, can you tell me everything what happened? I know it already, I heard from Nana. But I want to hear it directly from you." Baekhyun said while caressing Chanyeol's hand softly.

"But it's all in the past."

"Please?" Chanyeol sighed and hugged Baekhyun tighter.

"After our rehearsal, I wanted to see you immediately because I haven't seen you all day. I was searching for you when Nana suddenly went to me. She threatened me that if I don't kiss her, she'll tell you the truth about us and will expose your past to the others." He buried his face on Baekhyun's neck. "But I didn't know that you already knew about it. You were there when I confessed I was attracted to her... but it was also you who came rushing to me. Why? Why did you still accept me?"

Baekhyun smiled and turned to cup Chanyeol's face. He can see the taller tearing up. "Because you chose me and that's enough. I know you were just confused and I really love you that's why I let it go."

"I don't really deserve you, don't I?" Baekhyun slapped Chanyeol's cheek lightly. 

"Stop saying that. You're the one who told me to let the bygones be bygones and now, you're acting like this, you silly giant." He looked straight into his eyes and he kissed Chanyeol's nose. "It doesn't matter to me what you did in the past. You suffered so much and you probably blamed yourself over and over again and I want you to stop doing it, 'kay?"

Baekhyun was aware of everything and how it affected Chanyeol. He asked his acquaintances from the hospital and his friends. He was basically lifeless for a decade. Chanyeol didn't have anyone to lean on back then, Baekhyun wasn't there to wipe his tears and comfort him. Chanyeol needed him back then as much as he needed Chanyeol, even though he wasn't aware of it.

"Should I still continue? I just want to cuddle with you for the rest of the night."

Baekhyun giggled. "We can cuddle while talking, y'know? Go, continue your story then I'll tell you mine."

"Fine, so here it is. After you left, everything became hell to me. The picture quickly spread through the school. I had to perform while the crowd was cursing me. I wanted to give up, give up on everything. But then, your friends gave me a chance to explain, maybe they took pity on me. They then helped me and exposed what Nana did. Things eventually got cleared up but you weren't there." Chanyeol said with a small smile. "I decided to wait for you, even if it takes years. I waited for you to come back and you did."

Baekhyun sniffed and quickly wiped the tears in his eyes. "You even crashed to my car, you dumbo."

Chanyeol chuckled. "It's because Luhan suddenly called me and told me that you came back here, in this town. I was really surprised." Baekhyun just snickered, remembering how frightened he was when the accident happened. "Well, I'm done telling mine. It's your turn now, princess."
