Baekhyun looks at him with slight surprise, his half-lidded eyes move around Chanyeol’s face, and the corner of his mouth twitchs a little.
Chanyeol doesn't waste any more time, scared that he might change his mind and cower away.
He takes a step closer his trembling hands grab Baekhyun’s waist and he backs him away until his body touches the grey wall of his apartment, without a second thought he closes his eyes and leans forward, pressing his lips on Baekhyun’s, it is slow and sloppy, Chanyeol lets his tongue slip into the other’s parted mouth, he hasn’t kissed someone in a long time and he feels inexperienced.
Chanyeol waits for Baekhyun to pull away, curse him, or shove him but he doesn’t. Instead, he kisses him back pulling on the thin material of his shirt and reeling him in closer. There are no fireworks like in the movie or shows, Chanyeol feels like he is walking on air. As if a weight has been lifted off his shoulder. The way his lips connect with Baekhyun, his heartbeat hard against his, Chanyeol relishes the moment. Baekhyun tastes like nicotine and hope.
They don’t move, Chanyeol hesitatingly lets his fingers touch Baekhyun’s face. His skin is as soft as it looks, white and smooth as porcelain.
Both still a bit out of breath, Baekhyun speaks huskily, “I didn’t...think you would kiss me”
“I wasn’t thinking at all” Chanyeol gives a nervous laugh.
“Good...just next time don’t use so much tongue” A lazy smile appears on Baekhyun’s face as he rests his head on the gritty wall.
Chanyeol’s hand still on the other's waist moves awkwardly up to his shoulder rubbing along the material of Baekhyun's sleepwear. Chanyeol doesn’t know where to place it. He has kissed him within a haze something he felt in the moment.
Letting out a soft chuckle Baekhyun removes Chanyeol’s hands from his shoulder and puts them on his hips.
Baekhyun stares at him unblinking and then he slips his head, Chanyeol closes his eyes instinctively waiting for a kiss instead he feels warm breath ghosting his neck.
Baekhyun places his palm on Chanyeol’s chest and pushes him away slightly eyes still locked with him. Chanyeol takes a step back.
“It’s 1:45 get some sleep” Baekhyun says hands running through his copper hair, making it more mussed than it already is.
“Did..did I wake you up?” Chanyeol asks as he takes in the sight of the other as if he is seeing Baekhyun for the first time.
“No I was awake, but next time you decide to suddenly come into my apartment don’t be so late” There is a mischievous glint in his eyes that Chanyeol can’t help but take it as an invitation.
He nods and walks back to his place, suddenly his rooms don’t seem so empty anymore.
