Hotel Ceiling

October 30, 2015

Kyungsoo laid in bed thinking about what the day was. October 30th. This day had always meant so much to him. This year, though, it was nothing but a painful memory of what used to be. There was a knock at the door, before creaked open. Chanyeol's baritone reached his ears but he was barely listening. "Soo, you can't just lay in bed all day. Let's do something. I bet that I can get your mind off of things." He offered, falling into the bed, beside Kyungsoo. The latter pulled the cover off of his head and was surprised to see Chanyeol grinning at him. He couldn't even fight the laugh that forced its way out of his mouth. "Fine, just let me shower. You know I can't say no, if you look at me with that shit eating grin." Chanyeol hopped off of the bed and clapped. "We're going to go shopping so wear comfortable shoes. I need a few new hats. Then we can get food and whatever you want to do."

It only took Kyungsoo twenty minutes to get ready and he walked into the living room. "Alright, let's go, before I change my mind." He glanced over at the jolly blonde giant and shook his head. Chanyeol had a way of making people feel at ease. He would always be thankful to him for being able to put a smile back on his face. Chanyeol opened the door and held it for Kyungsoo, as he walked out.

The stores were crowded, since it was a Friday. Chanyeol and Kyungsoo weaved through the crowd before Kyungsoo bumped into Chanyeol's back. "Yah, why did you stop in the middle of the street?" He complained, standing beside his tall friend. Kyungsoo looked in the direction that Chanyeol's eyes were locked on and his heart began to hurt for him. "Just ignore him. Remember what you told me? We have to move on and stop dwelling on what happened."

Baekhyun glanced up and he spotted the pair. The man with him looked in their direction, confused. His hand slipped into Baekhyun's and tried to tug him away. "I thought he was with Jongin." Chanyeol mumbled, looking to Kyungsoo. The other two men walked towards Kyungsoo and Chanyeol and Baekhyun stopped, looking at Kyungsoo first.

"Soo, I didn't think I'd see you. I was going to call but I didn't know what to say." Kyungsoo laughed. "How about you explain why you were fucking my boyfriend and cheating on yours." The man beside Baekhyun let go of his hand and looked shocked. "Is this true? Y-you, you were seeing two other people?" He asked, his eyes filled with hurt.

"Sehun, it's not like that. It's really complicated." Chanyeol scoffed. "What was so complicated about it? Obviously, you've been messing around with multiply guys. I hope you're using protection. Who knows how many guys you've got. If you'll sleep with your best friend's boyfriend, you'll probably sleep with just about anyone."

Baekhyun reached towards Chanyeol and the latter pulled away. "Don't you ever touch me. You've lost that privilege. We'll go on as we have been, since I left. You ignore that we were going to get married and I'll ignore that you even exist."

Sehun ran his hands over his face. "Married? Fuck, Baek. How long have you been lying to us? We've been together for nearly two years and you were with him too?" He asked, tears springing to his eyes. Chanyeol took a deep breath. "Two years? You were cheating on me for two years? Silly me, I thought it had only been a couple of months with Jongin and then you have this one too. This is just hilarious. I even kept this fucking ring, thinking that we might be able to fix things. I was lying to myself saying that I was okay with us being over but I was holding on to the thought of us patching things up and all the while, you're just fine." Chanyeol pulled the ring off of his finger and dropped it on the ground. "I'm so fucking stupid."

Kyungsoo grabbed Chanyeol's arm, trying to drag him away. "No, Soo, I want to ask him one more thing. How long were you fucking Jongin? Because for a while, I had considered him my best friend. I just want to know how long you two were playing us." Kyungsoo wanted to know too but he wasn't sure if he could handle the truth, right now.

Baekhyun looked between the three men he'd hurt and sighed. "About a year." He admitted. Sehun shook his head and walked away, leaving the other three to deal with whatever was left to say. Baekhyun looked after the man who walked away, before looking to the two men in front of him. "I-I'm sorry." He muttered, before running after the other man, calling out his name.

Chanyeol was fighting tears, as he watched the man that he'd given his heart and soul to, run after someone else. "It's really over." He whispered, more to himself than to Kyungsoo. "Can we just go home? I'm not really feeling like shopping anymore. We can order in and watch a movie or something." He sighed and headed back the way that they came.

Kyungsoo watched Chanyeol, as he laid across the much too short couch and stuffed a handful of popcorn into his mouth. He was worried about him more than he was worried about himself. Seeing Chanyeol in such a depressive state made him want to do anything to cheer him up.

Kyungsoo sat on the floor, in front of Chanyeol and stared at him. "We can't mope around, Yeol. You said it yourself. We need to forget about the assholes who forgot about us. So, let's drink. Let's drink until we pass out and then when we wake up with horrible hangovers we will go out and get jajamyeon. Deal?" He smiled, pulling a bottle of soju from behind his back. "I also have vodka." Chanyeol grabbed the bottle of soju and opened it, before drinking it straight from the bottle. "well, I didn't think you'd do that, but yeah, let's get started." He giggled and took the soju from Chanyeol and drank it just as the other had.

An hour later and they were both sufficiently drunk. Chanyeol was laying on the floor while Kyungsoo's head rested on his stomach. "Okay, what is the most kinky thing that you've ever done?" Kyungsoo asked, giggling. Chanyeol's deep laugh caused Kyungsoo's head to bounce from the vibrations.

"Kinkiest?" He asked. "Um, I'd have to say it was giving Baekhyun a rim job in the library." He laughed, covering his face. Kyungsoo sat up and looked down at his friend. "Jongin never did that with me. He said it was weird but he let me do it to him. Now that I think about it, he would always make sure that the sex was shit that he liked but when I'd want to try something he was always so against it." He pouted.

Chanyeol sat up and hugged Kyungsoo. "That's not fair. You should want to please your lover. Trying new things is something that keeps the relationship exciting. Then again, it didn't keep Baekhyun." He laughed, suddenly finding it funny. "I would have fucked you however you wanted me to." Chanyeol mumbled, laying back down.

Kyungsoo's eyes went wide and he leaned over Chanyeol. "You would have fucked me?" He asked. Chanyeol nodded and sat back up, face to face with the other man. "Well, we were both in relationships. That would have been weird. But if we were both single, I would have." He admitted, the alcohol becoming liquid courage.

"We're both single, now." Kyungsoo stated, glancing at Chanyeol's lips. Without another word, he moved forward and pressed his lips to Chanyeol's wrapping his arms around his neck. Chanyeol kissed back without hesitation. To say that he'd never looked at Kyungsoo and found him attractive would be a lie. He would have never acted on anything as long as they were in relationships. But they were both drunk and hurting over men who didn't care about hurting them. Maybe they would regret this in the morning. Right now, though, they would use the other to feel better.
