I sighed as I stared at the tickets in my hands.

"I can't believe Mum sent us to a romance..." I said. Chanyeol chuckled.

"It shouldn't be too bad... I'll be back in a second, I just need to go to the toilet before the movie starts." I nodded and Chanyeol ran off.

A few seconds later, he returned. I smiled at him.

"That was quick." I said as he walked up at me. He frowned slightly.

"What? Oh yeah, uhm, it didn't take too long..." He rubbed the back of his neck and I frowned.

"Are you alright? Your voice is a little funny..." I asked and he smiled.

"Yeah, I think I might be coming down with a cold, my throat is being a bit funny..." He chuckled slightly. The doors to the cinema opened. "We should go in... Come on, Baekhyun." Chanyeol grabbed my hand and pulled me into the cinema.

"Where do you want to sit?" Without answering, Chanyeol walked down an aisle and sat down. He looked up at me expectantly, waiting for me to sit down.

"Are you going to sit down or just stand there?" Chanyeol frowned and I quickly sat down next to him. After a few seconds of sitting there, I grabbed his hand and held it. He looked down and frowned slightly before returning his gaze to the blank cinema screen.

I stared at him as the lights dimmed. His phone went off and he pulled it out, looking at it.

"I'll be back in a sec." Without waiting for a reply, he got up and left.

A few seconds later, he returned.

"Where did you go?" I asked as he sat down.

"Sorry I took so long, I got held up by this girl..." He frowned when he heard my question. "To the bathroom..."

"But you went before... You were gone for less than a minute..." Chanyeol continued to frown.

"Uh, I left before and then got held up by some girl who wouldn't leave me alone... I think I was gone for more than a minute.." He felt my forehead. "Are you sure you're feeling alright?"

"Yeah, I'm fine." Chanyeol was probably just being his usual derpy self...

The cinema screen slowly began to glow and the ads started to show.

Chanyeol reached over and grabbed my hand, holding it. He then pulled out a small bag of popcorn with his free hand and put it in the middle of us.

"I bought popcorn on my way to the cinema room." That was probably where he went. But that didn't explain his phone.

"Who texted you?" I asked, looking at him.

"No one." He frowned at me. "Are you sure you're alright?" I nodded and smiled.

"Perfectly fine..." It was probably just an alarm or something.

"Good. If you're not, just tell me and we can go home." I shook my head.

"I'm fine..." He nodded slowly and grabbed a piece of popcorn, eating it slowly as he stared at me. I squeezed his hand reassuringly and smiled. "Really."

"Okay, I believe you." He leaned over and kissed my forehead. "You'd better not be lying to me though."

"Would you two be quiet, I'm trying to watch the ads." Kai said, turning around in the seat in front of us.

"Kai! You're watching this movie too?" Chanyeol exclaimed. Kai sighed and rolled his eyes.

"Sadly, yes. I don't want to be here but D.O said it's the only way I'll get back in his good books..." He said.

"I'm back..." D.O said, holding a bag of M&M's. "Oh, hi Chanyeol and Baekhyun."

"Hey, D.O." I waved as he sat down next to Kai, handing him the bag of M&M's.

"Sorry I took so long, this girl and her scary looking friend were arguing in the line and didn't end up buying anything." He sighed. "It was scary..."

"Poor D.O..." Kai pat D.O's head before yawning and wrapping his arm around D.O. I laughed.

"Of course he does the yawn trick..."

"What's wrong with the yawn trick?" Chanyeol asked. "It worked for me..." I then noticed his arm was around my shoulder.

"Yeah, but I was distracted so it doesn't count."

"I think it does..."

"Doesn't."

"Does." Chanyeol quickly kissed me as the movie started, quietening both of us. "I win." He whispered.

"No, you don't. Now shh before someone yells at us..." Chanyeol nodded and returned his attention to the movies.

"I can't believe you fell asleep during the movie... it was so sad." Chanyeol said, wiping away a tear. I rolled my eyes and quickly tried to pull him out of the cinemas before he embarrassed me further.

"It was boring. Nothing ever happened." I said, tugging at his hand.

"Her brother died. And then her parents. And then... and then her dog..." Chanyeol began sobbing again. He'd barely even sniffled when the family died, but the dog dying caused him to burst into tears.

"It's just a dog, it didn't even die in real life..." I said.

"We need a dog." Chanyeol said, ignoring me.

"Ah... I don't think so..."

"We need a dog." He said again. He sounded determined and something told me we were soon going to be the owners of a puppy.

"I'm not going to be able to talk you out of this, am I?" Chanyeol shook his head.

"We need a dog."

The final complication of this story is sort of going to happen soonish but the lead up to the major major bit allows me to literally let Chanyeol and Baekhyun do anything.

So... what do you guys want the BaekYeol couple to do?

Think of this as my present to you for taking about 30-something chapters for the BaekYeol to happen.

They can literally do anything BaekYeol-y. So if you want them to do something, tell me.

That is all.
Bye
