"ALRIGHT, EVERYONE IN POSITION! Chanyeol just called, and he said they're a block away!" They piled up in a corner, ready for the surprise. The doorknob began to wiggle before it was unlocked and pushed open.
"SURPRISE!"
Baekhyun blinked a few times and looked around the room in confusion. Was it his birthday? Did he forget? He didn't understand what was happening until his eyes landed on the big banner in the middle of the room.
'Baekhyun-ah, I love you! I'm sorry!'
He smiled at the silly party and laughed. "You guys did a party just because of a fight?" He giggled and looked at his best friend, who stood in the center. "Well yeah..." Scratching his neck, he smiled before running up to Baekhyun. Engulfing him into a hug, Baekhyun had to let go of the hand he had been holding. He heard the grumble beside him but chose to ignore it and focused on Luhan instead. "I'm sorry for being a bad friend!" He laughed at the worried squirm the older did, "Ahh hyung, it's okay. I was overreacting. I forgive you!" He kissed his best friend's cheek, which was pretty normal for them. But he could still feel the stinging glare piercing into his side. He turned to Chanyeol and swiftly gave the boy a peck on the lips.
"Sorry..."
The giant could only smile while pulling him by the waist and rubbing their noses together. The scene was so heartwarming, but as much as the group wanted to adore the scene... they were beyond confused as to why the two supposed enemies were so close.
"Oh my Jisoo..." Luhan dropped the confetti popper and fell back into Sehuns, awaiting arms. "You guys are together?" Xiumin asked with a grin already forming on his teasing lips.
"Umm.."
The pair shyly turned to look at their group of friends.
"Surprise?"

"I'm asking if you want to be my boyfriend?"
Baek turned to face him, no longer using the mirror to gaze at the taller. Chanyeol kept his head high, staring back with the same intensity. "You... You want to date me?" Chanyeol stepped closer with a hum, trapping him in between his arms. "Well, you did say we weren't doing friend stuff. I obviously feel attracted to you, so it wouldn't hurt to try it out." Baekhyun sweatdropped at the suggestion. It was painful to look at the youngers shy grin because he still felt unsure of his feelings. He knew he liked the taller, but... was he ready for this? Was he prepared to let Chanyeol in even when he could figure out the truth?
"What if it doesn't work out?"
Chanyeol grabbed his hand, his thumb caressing the surface softly. Placing a kiss on his knuckles, he smiled and looked into Baekhyuns eyes.
"I have a feeling we'll work out. But if we don't, then... what can we do? That's just our destiny. I can keep trying as long as I have your consent."
Baekhyun smiled but slowly looked down.
Am I ready for this?
I mean, I do like him, but...
I don't want to ruin anything or lose someone else-
"If you don't want to, it's okay. I just hope I didn't make you uncomfortable." Chanyeol began to step away with the objective of hiding his disappointment. He turned his head, hoping the smaller wouldn't see his forming frown. He stopped at the sudden tug on his shirt. He swerved his head and saw Baekhyun look away in embarrassment.
"Yes."
"Yes?" He asked, a bit confused.
"Yes, Chanyeol, I'll be your boyfriend."
The biggest smile spread onto Chanyeols face as he pulled Baekhyun into a tight hug. His hands traveled down onto his thighs, and Baek quickly understood the message. He jumped into the warm hold and wrapped his legs around the tallers waist. Chanyeol fluttered him with plenty of kisses. The ticklish feeling made Baek release a stifled giggle while Chan continued to kiss him lightly.
"Is this my special K-drama moment?"
Baekhyun muttered a soft, "idiot," before wrapping his hands around the tallers neck. He closed the gap between them, pressing a sweet kiss against his lips with a smile. Chanyeol pulled him closer, tilting his head to deepen the kiss.
Ring!
Ring!
Ring!
"Chan. The phone is ringing." He groaned at the apparent comment but grabbed his phone nonetheless. "Oh it's Luhan." He carried Baekhyun back into the room, gently laying him on the bed before answering the call.
"Hey, Lu-"
"WHERE ARE YOU?!"
Separating the phone from his ear, he winced. "Hyung, no need to yell. I'm home. Why?" He tapped the smallers thigh, smiling when he pulled on his hand to play with his long fingers.
"Are you with Baek?"
"Yeah."
"Okay, come to my house and tell Baekhyun it's because we're having a study session."
"Wh-"
"EH NO QUESTIONS! Just follow my instructions."
"But-"
"Bye!" Hanging up, he stared at his phone in suspicion but shrugged it off.
"What'd he say?"
Chanyeol lifted them off the bed with a blank face. "We have to go to his house for some study session." Baekhyun tilted his head confused. "Study session?" The taller nodded with the same bewilderment.
"I don't know either. Come on, let's get dressed properly before we leave."
.

"CHANYEOL, IM OFF TO WOR- ahh, you're already here. So how'd you sleep?" She raised her eyebrows suspiciously with a smirk. "It's too early for this. Please don't start." Baekhyun eyed him with a confused pout. "It's almost 1 in the afternoon." Chanyeol slapped his forehead while his mother cackled loudly.
"I love him already! Where are you two going? I can give you a ride before I head to work. "
"We have a meet-up with Luhan, Mrs. Park." Baekhyun shyly smiled. "Ahh, call me mom. Hurry to the car. I'll leave you two at his house." She ruffled the smallers hair allowing his cheeks to redden. When they had seated themselves in the vehicle, she drove them to Luhans house without an issue.
"Alright, now don't have too much fun, remember!" She sent them a wink when both males exited her car. "Yeah yeah. Bye, I love you!" Chanyeol waved goodbye before his mother could say anything else. Mrs. Park smiled at the sight. Both the taller and smaller had their hands interlocked as they approached the locked door.
"My boy has finally grown up..." She smiled to herself before driving off.

Present
"PAY UP, CHEN!" Sehun yelled while pulling at the olders collar with excitement. He had won the bet fair and square.
"Calm down!" He scoffed before giving the younger 30 dollars. Chanyeol laughed at the sight, but Baek noticed him slightly panic.
"Ahahahah! I am the winner! Pay up, you losers!" He laughed evilly, skipping around his hyungs collecting money. He had finally gotten to Chanyeol with a playful smirk on his face.
"Pay up, hyung~" Baekhyun turned to him with a raised brow.
"Betting on our relationship?" Chan hastily gave him a short kiss with an awkward smile.
"I'm sorry." The older couldn't resist the boy's cuteness. He rolled his eyes and walked away after raising his finger with a glare.
"Strike two."
"Why two?"
"Neck." Chanyeol sighed, knowing he would probably get a punishment once he reached the third strike.
.

The group began to eat the food Luhan had organized on the dining table. As usual, Jongin hogged the chicken plate like an angry dog. He nearly barked at Sehun when he reached out to grab a wing. Baek ate his fried rice watching his chaotic friends continue to fight. He had only turned his head when Chanyeol called his name. He felt instant regret when he realized why his boyfriend had called him.
"Your favorite~" Chanyeol held a plate of vegetables... mostly covered in cucumbers.
Baekhyun pointed his chopsticks in disgust.
"If you get near me with that thing, I will destroy y-"
A cucumber slapped onto his face.
It almost felt like time had froze. Jongin had stopped arguing and turned to the pair just like everyone else. Baekhyun felt the cucumber slide down his face before landing on the table. He looked at the taller with a sweet smile.
"Strike three." His voice was cold and harsh as he slowly got out of his chair. He wiped his face taking his time, wondering why Chanyeol was still in his seat. Luhan worriedly turned to the giant and pointed to the door.
"I think you should run."
And so he did... but it was too late. Baekhyun had chased after him, pulled onto his back collar with a sinister look in his eyes.
"Baek, I'm sorry!"
"Sorry, doesn't cut it!"
"IT WAS BY ACCIDENT!"
"YOU THREW IT AT ME!"
"BAB-"
"Shut up!"
"NOT THE WASSABI BAEK!"
"And here I thought they were going to be a cute, happy couple." Suho sighed while shaking his head.
"So, how was your day, guys?" Tao asked as they all averted their attention to the food. They tried to ignore the screams for help surrounding them, but it grew difficult when the fighting pair had entered the dining room once again.
"HELP! PLEASE, SOMEONE, HELP ME!" Chanyeol held onto Jongdae with a frightened expression. He turned his head, wondering if he had gotten rid of the killer monster.
"Nah, man, you're on your own. You made the puppy vicious-"
"What did you just call me?" Jongdae shivered when he heard the voice. He slowly turned to the older who took slow steps towards them-a blank stare in his eyes with a devilish smile.
"I- I said I- CHANYEOL RUN FOR YOUR LIFE!" The two males began to run away from the angered smaller. Baekhyun could only suck his teeth in amusement when he had easily caught up to the pair.
"You think they'll make it?" Yixing asked, a bit worried.
"AHHH, BAEKHYUN, I'M SORRY!"
"BAEKHY- AHHHHH!"
"Not a chance." The group shook their heads, mentally praying for Chanyeol and Jongdae's safety.
