The Damnation of a Saint [BBH x READER]

______________________

Cutting the vegetables was not your favourite task around the convent. You liked cleaning and tidying up better. Only because you were more on the active side and you liked how cleaning would make you break up a sweat when the whole monastery needed a dust off but nonetheless what you liked most was to help the community. And knowing the soup you were cooking up with the two other sisters was going to feed everyone was a fulfilling feeling. Well enough to make you happy.

So you were contemplating life cutting off the homegrown zucchinis when Sister Chaeyoung started to giggle. You didn't pay much attention until Sister Nayeon started to snicker along with her.

You lift your eyes up and the both of them instantly stiffened up and started to act suspicious.

"What are you laughing about you two?" you asked, an amused smile playing on your lips.

"Oh nothing" Nayeon said, hiding something behind her back.

"Come on, I want to laugh too" you said, the smile spreading further on your face.

You three are the youngest in the convent so you do many duties together, you grew quite close with the girls.

Chaeyoung rips something from Nayeon's hand and proudly shows it to you.

"Look at this carrot" she said, puffing an adorable laugh.

It's true the carrot has quite the... interesting shape. First of all it's quite large, abnormally thick for a simple carrot. Homegrown vegetables are never like the perfectly shaped ones from the store and it's definitely the case for this one. It has a slight upward curve and the extremity has a very distinctive shape. It's phallic.

You delicately took the vegetable from the hands of Chaeyoung.

It's almost unnatural how close the resemblance is, like it can't be due to fortuity... The thick tip, the robust and curved upright shaft, the asperities reminiscent of the blood engorged veins, even the small slit at the top... The details are impressive.

"Look look" Chanyeol exclaimed, nudging Baekhyun in the ribs as he still observed you through the green fog. "She looks interested. I think it's done this time". Baekhyun stays completely silent but a smrk pulls on his lips when he notices how you eye down the forbidden vegetable (no pun intended), how your throat seems to thickly swallow and how your lip slightly trembles.

It feels so empowering, finally getting at your strong willed spirit, finally getting lust to creep under your skin. For these long seconds of contemplation, Baekhyun can only imagine the wicked places your mind races to. But right when he is about to open his mouth and declare victory. You laugh.

Baekhyun's eyes nearly pop out if their sockets as this laugh rips through him.

You laugh so openly, your head hanged back, eyes creased. The laugh is like the rest of you, joyful, clear and pure.

You are only amused by such a coincidence. Nothing more, nothing less. Of course it's funny and you were never the stuck up kind.

"I guess she's only laughing at your stupid tricks" Yixing says while shrugging.

"Shut up" Baekhyun spits as he watches the scene unfold.

The three of you just laughed, enjoying this bonding moment together while the stricter, older sisters and the Mother Superior weren't there to dim down your childish and silly amusement. It was just some light hearted, innocent humor to you.

Nothing to shake your faith or virtue.

"Now let's finish up the soup, girls" you said, setting the amusing carrot on the cutting board. Before chopping it up and tossing the pieces in the big pot.

"Maybe we should have kept it" Chaeyoung whispered with pouty lips.

"Don't be silly" you replied with a smile.

Baekhyun felt anger building up in his stomach and rushing through his veins to burn down his chest and neck. As much as he hated to admit it... Yixing was right these stupid tricks were no match for the unwaivering rightousness of your mind. These would certainly suffice if it was any other soul but not yours. Not you.

So Baekhyun was resolved to adopt drastic measures. Something he hasn't done for centuries. But something necessary. This anger he felt, the deception upon failing once again. He hadn't felt that in so long, he felt alive finally. It's ironic how an immortal soul forgets how to feel alive for the simple reason that nothing is a threat to their existence. It is immuable, infinite, certain. Therefore unexciting, monotonous and lifeless.

So the negative feelings reminded Baekhyun of a purpose he once had, they reminded him of the stakes that used to be. Y/n reminded Baekhyun of being alive. Him, the unholy and vile Sin of Lust.
