CHANYEOL'S POV

Bacon hadn't shown up at school for the past week and I was beginning to worry.
"Chanyeol... Chanyeol..." Someone shook me. "Chanyeol..."
"What?" I frowned at V, who was whining at me.
"You weren't saying anything... or doing anything..." He whined.
"That's because I was thinking." My frown deepened. "What're you even doing in this class? We're not even in the same year..."
"Really?" V's eyes widened. "Oh yeah, that's right..." He grinned. "I guess I'll just hang here for now, at least till the bell goes, so I don't look like an idiot."
"You always look like an idiot, it's impossible for you not to." I sighed and stared out the window.
"Hey, you're ignoring me again... Stop thinking and pay attention to me." V shoved me slightly.
"What?" I frowned at him again.
"I said, apparently Baekhyun has got a fever. That's what J-Hope told me anyway." V said.
"What? How did J-Hope know??"
"Apparently N told him..."
"And how did N know?"
"Leo told him..."
"And Leo was told by who?"
"Uh... I think it was Zelo..."
"Wait, rather than me keep asking, you just tell me." I said. V nodded.
"Alright, so J-Hope was told by N who was told by Leo who was told by Zelo who was told by Yongguk who was told by Hongbin who was told by Yunho-" V took a breath. "Who was told by Rap Monster who was told by Suga who was told by Jonghyun who was told by Taemin who was told by Kai who was told by Sehun who was told by Chen who was told by Onew who was told by Key who was told by-" He took another breath. "Jenissi who was told by Jin who was told by me who was told by Ravi that Baekhyun is sick."
"What... so Ravi told you that Bacon was sick?" V nodded. "And you made me sit through all that, despite the fact that you could've just told me that Ravi had told you?"
"Well you asked who'd told J-Hope-"
"Yes, but you said J-Hope told you that Bacon was sick."
"He did..." I sighed and shook my head.
"Yes, but Ravi told you first." V smiled. "Ohh yeah, he did..." I facepalmed.
"Sometimes I worry about you..."
"So do I." Jungkook said, sitting in Bacon's seat.
"what're you doing here?! You're younger than V! Neither of you should be here!" I exclaimed.
"Yeah, I came to find V. And I'm comfy now so I think I'll sit here." I banged my head against the table.
"Chanyeol, are you alright?" Mr. Lee asked.
"Yeah... just dying." I said, not removing my head from the table.
"Oh ok." Mr. Lee went back to teaching Science. ((this school is so understaffed...))

X X X X

I entered Bacon's house and was greeted with the sound of someone dying.
"Bacon? Are you in here?" I called out.
"In... *cough* ... here *cough*..." I rushed up to his bedroom.
"Are you alright? V said you had a fever." I said.
"Nah, it's all good... *cough* ... just a cough." He said.
"You sure?" He nodded.
"Yeah. Nothing to be worried about." He said, smiling at me. He then sneezed.
"Are you sure? You don't sound well!" I placed my hands on his face, which was going red, to see if he had a temperature. "Ah, your face is warm!"
"I'm fine, Chanyeol!" Bacon pushed me away, frowning at me. "Just, back off."
"Sorry..." Bacon sighed.
"No, I'm sorry for snapping, I don't know why I'm so grumpy lately... sorry.." I smiled.
"It's alright, just get better soon. Is there anything I can do for you?"
"Nah, I kind of just want to sleep right now." He yawned.
"Alright, I'll be right downstairs if you need me." He nodded and I tucked him in, which made his face redder.
"Thanks Chanyeol..." He said.
"No problem..." I then walked out, shutting the door behind me, and went downstairs to watch cartoons.

BACON's POV

I sat there, staring at my roof. I didn't need sleep. I wasn't sick. I just needed an excuse to avoid Chanyeol.
Of course, that failed. He was now downstairs.
My hand unconsciously went to my lips as I replayed that night in my head. It had only been quick but it had been stuck in my head since.

That goddam stupid kiss!!

I chucked my pillow across the room.

I. Am. Straight. I do not like guys. I definitely do not like Chanyeol in that way.

I sighed. What was happening to me? Why was I feeling like this?
"Yo, buddy." Ravi said, climbing through the window.
"He's downstairs." I said.
"Have you said anything?" I shook my head. "I don't know what your problem is, you know he likes you, it's not like there's the fear of your feelings not being returned."
"Yeah, but I've never liked a guy in that way before." I said. "It's confusing me."
"Well, you have two options. You either 'fess up, or you get over there feelings." Ravi shrugged. "Your choice."

CHANYEOL's POV

I stood outside the door, feeling guilty for eavesdropping. But at the same time, I now knew Bacon likes me. I stared at the tea in my hands. If I went in now, they'd know I was eavesdropping, but I couldn't just leave the tea... could I?
I placed the tea on the ground in front of Bacon's door, not quite sure what I was doing. I then walked outside, Bacon had Ravi now, they'd be fine.
I looked up at the sky. On second thoughts.. cartoons are better than rain...
