Hello, Mr. Sanity | Chanbaek

Chapter 27

He grabbed my hand and smiled, pulling me back down to the bed, "I. Love. You. Too. Hear me now?"

"Do... Do you really?" My voice spoke out, wavering.

"I do." Baekhyun nodded his head and smiled.

I sat back next to him and smiled. Baekhyun only began to laugh.

"I know I shouldn't feel so heart touched but you killed a guy for me, because you thought he hurt me." He giggled and nuzzles into my side.

"Well of course I did, you're only my Baekhyun." I spoke, my arm snaking around him as I brought him close to my body, "I thought you were beautiful from the first time that I saw you, I have never seen anyone like you at all."

"Chanyeol, there's a reason that you're the first patient that I've stayed with for this long, and it's not because I think you need a lot of help. Because you don't. You're perfectly fine in your own way. Sure, you've killed about 4 people, but that doesn't mean anything. People kill thousands everyday. You're nothing compared to them. I told you before and I'll tell you again, you're my little monster. And only mine, got it?"

I nodded and smiled, beginning to speak, "My life used to be all gray without you. I saw everything in gray, there was no color. But once I started talking to you, I saw slivers of the color with every gleam that came from your eyes. And now with you, my shades of gray have color to them." I ended my small speech, cheeks aflame as I looked down.

My heart beat rapidly on my cheek, yelling and screaming at me. It banged against my rib cage, going and moving to the beat of Bang Bang Bang. It sung out and reached, wanting to intertwine with Baekhyun's heart. So I let it, for the first time. I let my heart reach out, let it be loved by another.

"Please don't hurt me, Baekhyun, my heart is in your grasp now.." I murmured, pulling the small boy into my arms as I hugged him close to my body.

I snuggled him close and breathed in his sent, smiling to myself on finally having the one thing that I wanted most in this world.

"Chanyeol.." Baekhyun whispered out.

"Yes?" I asked, looking down to him.

"This is one of my last visits." He spoke, looking up to me.

I felt something in my chest shatter, "W..Why..?"

"You're getting let out in a couple of days, I won't be visiting you when you'll be living with me, silly." He giggled, moving and kissing my cheek.

I felt the blood rise up and the shattered place in my heart repair. Life was good right now, as it should be. Some obstacles in the way but nothing too drastic. But I knew I could get through anything as long as I had Baekhyun by my side.

"Oh yeah, Chanyeol. What were you and Sehun talking about?" Baekhyun asked, humming softly.

"Oh, ummm... nothing..!"
