Be With You

Epilogue

8 years later, you and your little circle of friends had a reunion. You met at a simple and cozy restaurant nearby the karaoke place you all had been partying at. There were snacks and desserts in the room, there were wine and champagne as well. It was a simple formal party totally different from the silly youthful celebrations you had during high school.

"I can't believe it's been eight years." Baekhyun stared at the distant from the window, smiling brightly as he took a sip of red wine.

"I know. I can't believe we've been together for that long." You smiled as you put your arms around his waist, backhugging him, and your chin on his shoulder.

He looked at you to peck your lips, and he turned around to hug you back with his free hand. His head tilted and leaned forward for a kiss when the door creaked open as the sweet couple entered.

"Yah yah yah, what is this, huh? This is not a love booth!" Sehun walked closer with his arms open wide and chuckled.

Baekhyun walked up to him for a manly hug. "What's up, man?" Man. An expression which used to be bro. Man. Since they were all matured and fully grown.

"Neesha!"

"__!"

Both of you squealed the moment you saw each other.

"Oh My God, I missed you!" You gave her a tight hug.

"Me, too. I missed you so much!" She let go from the hug, still holding onto your arms. "Although I see you all the time on TV singing with Baekhyun." You both giggled.

"Hey where are the others?" Sehun looked around the huge, empty room.

"I'm not really sure if the others are coming. Go and have a seat for now. I'll call Chanyeol." Baekhyun reached for his phone in his pocket. Three rings after he dialled, a deep voice popped out at the end of the line.

'Yoboseyo, Baekhyun-ah.'

"Yah, Chanyeol. Are you three coming?"

'Yeah, we just got our schedules done. We'll be on our way. Chanmi's with us, too.'

"Oh, okay. Get your ass here quickly, man." He laughed.

'Alright. I'll see you all in a bit.' He hung up.

"Chanmi's with them?" You asked, reaching for a glass of wine.

"Yeah, she's their stylist." Sehun replied, pouring a glass of red wine for Neesha.

"It must've been awkward for Chanyeol to have his sister as his own stylist." Neesha said as she reached for the glass from Sehun. "Thanks, honey."

"Nah, I don't believe so. Those two are really close." Baekhyun put his arms around your shoulders as he took a seat next to you.

A few minutes later, the door cracked open. A creepy smile lingered on Chanyeol's face as he greeted, "Hey guys! What's up?" The three casually followed him and greeted you all as well. You all stood up to give each other a hug.

"Chanmi," you started, "I'm really sorry we didn't make it to your wedding." You held her hands together and apoligized.

"It's okay. I understand." She flashed a smile. A very understanding smile.

"Well, if you couldn't have scheduled it the day after our Asian tour then maybe we could've made it." Baekhyun butted in as he put his arms around your wast.

"Yeah, I'm really sorry. Our schedule was quite tight too. Kai's got the dance studio's recital coming while my brother's doing concerts with the two. Of course I need to be with them, since I'm their stylist. So yeah, that was the only possible day we could've held it." She awkwardly smiled.
