"I'm pregnant."

Baekhyun deadpanned as a certain tall boy took a seat in front of him, not even giving a chance for him to settle down first. Everything around them was bustling with life and lightheartedness but here they were, engaged in a conversation about a seemingly serious topic.

"What?!"

Chanyeol choked on his own saliva, as he fell haphazardly into his chair, wondering if he'd heard the boy right. Baekhyun rolled his eyes, wondering how he had ended up being knocked up by the moron. His whole aura screams I don't have my together. If they were still in high school, Baekhyun would be the smart student who ruins his future by making a dumb mistake of sleeping with Chanyeol, the irresponsible typical jock who doesn't have any aspirations of any sorts.

"Have you turned deaf? I said I'm pregnant. With baby. With child. There's a ing bun the size of a peanut in my oven."

It took awhile for Chanyeol to find his voice once again, and the second he did, the first thing that comes out is a livid curse.

". Is it mine?"

"I've only ever slept with one guy, Chanyeol."

Baekhyun's tone remained nonchalant as if it were all nothing new to him. In the office, people addressed the CEO's son as Park Chanyeol-ssi and his close circle of friends call him Yeol, but nobody ever called him Chanyeol. Just Chanyeol. Nobody until Byun Baekhyun, that is.

"So it's mine?"

"You're seriously getting on my nerves here. You don't think I impregnated myself, do you?"

Silence.

"What do we do?"

Baekhyun lifted his eyes to meet Chanyeol's as the latter fidgeted uncomfortably in his seat.

"I don't know..."

Something in Baekhyun snapped as his posture tensed when he sat forward with narrowed eyes that had lethal lasers coming out of them.

"What do you mean you don't know? If you hadn't kissed me drunk at that party I wouldn't have followed you into the room and we wouldn't have ed in Joonmyun's bed and I wouldn't be sitting here in front of you all pregnant and making a big fuss out of it and I'm feeling so hormonal and ty and I-I..."

His angry rant turned into little sobs as Chanyeol stared at the boy before him in bewilderment.

When the sobbing had subsided, Chanyeol reached over to uncertainly cover the older boy's hand with his own, even though it felt really awkward. For a moment, Baekhyun looked at Chanyeol who looked as lost as he himself was feeling. And for an even wilder moment, Baekhyun thought that the boy had miraculously transformed into a caring, responsible adult. But then he just had to open his mouth and say something dumb that causes the older boy to burst into defeated tears once again at the fact that he was going to have a baby with a boy who was fairly dense.

"What are you crying so much for? I'm pretty sure the hormonal mood swings don't start this early."

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


After a gruelling hour of trying to get Baekhyun to calm down, in which Chanyeol had to brace himself for countless of " you's" and "this is all your fault's" and snotty tears thrown at him, the older finally leaned back in his seat, visibly tired from the shouting and crying he'd done. Chanyeol noticed that his face seemed to age a little, small creases of lines under his eyes. They were only in the mere beginning stages of the pregnancy but so far they hadn't done such a good job in handling it.
