Loving you | Chanbaek

- Twelve

The music is entering Chanyeol's ears, his eyes are fixated on the ceiling as he sighs heavily. Does Baekhyun like Sehun? He bites his lip in frustration, watching how the door cracks open slowly, his best friend entering the room quietly, not even minding Chanyeol, almost as he wouldn't even exist. He has been acting like this since they arrived at the dorm, completely confusing the taller. Is he mad?

Chanyeol looks at his friend, who's sitting on his bed, staring at his phone in total concentration. Maybe I should try to start conversation?

"Sehun? Are you fine man? You look sick." Sehun continues glancing on his phone. "I'm fine." Okay, he is mad. Chanyeol scratches his neck, staring at the wall while a throbbing pain is floating in his head.But why? "I had fun today. Maybe Baekhyun and his friend aren't that bad as I thought-"

Sehun puts his phone on the bed, looking at Chanyeol with sharp gazes at the other one stares at him in confusion. "Cut the play, seriously." What? "I don't know what you're talking about Sehun. What's wrong?" He chuckles, shaking his head in disbelief as he faces his friend. "Baekhyun. I'm not dumb."

Chanyeol gulps, a thousand of thoughts suddenly surrounding his head. Baekhyun? "What's about him?" Sehun stays mute for a moment of silence, laying his head on his pillow and looking up to the ceiling with a stressed expression.

"Do you like him Chanyeol?"

He bites his lip, glancing at his friend before drifting his side to the wall. "Uhh, he's nice. I don't have anything against h-"

"No, I meant do you like him? .. in a romantic way."

What? "Of course not. I like girls." Sehun sighs, massaging his temples before stopping abruptly, looking at Chanyeol with wide eyes. "Wait? You didn't say 'I like Tiffany' like you would usually."

Right. Tiffany. He looks to the wall in silence, thinking about her dark, long hair, her soft face, her dark orbs and this dazzling smile.. this special, wide smile, which looks like a square.. this.. no, why is he thinking about Baekhyun all of the sudden? He shakes his head in a fast pace, leading his hand to his head. What the fuck, Park Chanyeol-

"You're really difficult to handle, Chanyeol. I want Baekhyun to be happy, and unfortunately I'm not the one who can make him happy." Chanyeol glances at his friend with wide eyes as Sehun sighs, leaving the room in an instance. What just happened? He stares at the door in total confusion, questions swimming in his mind.

"I'm not the one who can make him happy."A sigh escapes his lip, drifting deep into his thoughts. Why did he say that? He blinks a few times before laying down on his bed and staring up to the ceiling while thinking about today's afternoon. Baekhyun's smile and his unforgettable features. Chanyeol smiles, grabbing his phone from the night-table and dialing Baekhyun's number without thinking about his decision. He doesn't know why but he suddenly has the urge to talk to the smaller.

It beeps a few times before a familiar, calm voice appears on the other line, chills running through Chanyeols body. "Chanyeol?"

"H-Hey."

"Hey.." Chanyeol bites his lip, glancing at the ceiling. "Uh, how are you?" A silence follows, Chanyeol shifting in his bed, taking off his glasses and placing them on the night-table.

"I'm good and you?"

"Me too. My head just hurts a little bit."

"Oh, get well soon! I hope you had fun today."

The corner of Chanyeol's lips curve up, a wide smile appearing on his lips. "Thanks, I had. It was nice seeing you in real life and talking to you."

"Thank you," Baekhyun giggles before a moment of silence follows. Their breaths staying hard while their minds are crowded. "You're really confusing, Chanyeol."

He furrows his eyebrows, Baekhyun's voice hitting his ears. "What do you mean?"

"It's nothing.. I've been thinking way too much today." He frowns in confusion, listening to Baekhyun's soft voice. "I understand. Is there a way I can distract you from your thoughts? Maybe we could distract each other.."

A giggle follows before Baekhyun's voice hits his ears again. "How about another round LOL?"

5 hours earlier

Sehun's heart is thumping against his chest in a fast pace as Baekhyun looks at him with a smile, holding his hand tightly. He's in love. In love with this cute human being. "Sehun? I would like to talk with you about something." He looks at the smaller, nodding in a fast pace. "Of course. What's wrong?"

"Oh, uhm.. Does Chanyeol find being gay disgusting?" Sehun furrows his eyebrows. Why is this about Chanyeol? "No, he doesn't. He's an idiot, but he isn't an asshole. Why?" He smiles awkwardly, running a hand through his blonde hair. "I was just curious.."

Sehun stares at Baekhyun, watching how his cheeks turn red. Oh no. "So he doesn't find me disgusting?" Baekhyun looks up at Sehun and the taller can suddenly see a way too familiar shine in his eyes. The same shine when he's looking at the smaller, but this certain shine isn't for Sehun. It's for Chanyeol. He closes his eyes, sighing deeply, a pain rushing through his heart, breaking in a million pieces. Why him?

"Sehun?" He blinks, looking at Baekhyun with a smile. "No, of course not." How could anyone find such a cute boy disgusting. Baekhyun smiles relieved, glancing to his back where Chanyeol is walking behind them before looking back at Sehun. "I know that the chance of us being together isn't high, but I can't deny that I like him.."

"And I know that he'll never like me back, so I'll just try to move on-"

"I'll help you." Sehun bites his lip, shocked from his own words. His heart is shattered in pieces, but all he can think of is Baekhyun's happiness. All I want is to see you being happy, even if I'm not the reason.

— Be happy please.
