"The place looks huge.." Baekhyun was agape. They had arrived at Chanyeol's camp in no time. The walk was silent but the kind of silence that was comfortable. At least to Chanyeol it was, Baekhyun was still a bit flustered about his towel thing, he had picked it up from the bathroom and Chanyeol burst into a fit of laughter. So he was cherry red the entire way. 

Chanyeol scoffed, "You'll find it pretty crowded when everyone's here." Baekhyun frowned. By everyone Chanyeol meant the other idols..and in them Kyungsoo. Ok so, Baek didn't have a problem with him, Baek actually admired the guy and he found his smile the cutest but in difference to Chanyeol, Kyungsoo was too serious and had a very cold look the only time Baek or anyone at that saw him smile was when he was with Chanyeol..and sometimes with a slightly tan guy, if memory serves right his name was Kai, son of poseidon. Baek had talked to D.O once, they were partnered for a small hunt project the class was doing in training and since Baek was a grade below D.O was to teach him the basics. Unfortunately for both Baek had never hunted down a deer or any animal before so it was his first time holding a bow and arrow.

 Baekhyun was no dummy, D.O was irritated and although his face looked indifferent and blank Baek could tell somehow. But it really wasn't his fault, he didn't get training as early as D.O had and the basics weren't as easy as he made them look. One pull of the bow's string and D.O had the arrow penetrate a hole in the tree in front of them. How the hell was he supposed to do that. When D.O frowned down at Baek he could feel his heart being shot with a million arrows. //How could you Baek..how could you make cute kyungsoo frown like that?// "What's wrong?" He shyly asked, D.O only looked away and scratched his nape. "You're doing fine. Um, you just need some more practice." Even he sounded unsure about what he said. Baek couldn't help but glare at the boy. "I do need more practice. But I'm going to learn quickly." Baek was ready to try again when he heard a very small but still audible chuckle from the guy beside him. He already was frustrated with not being able to handle the bow so he guessed it was stress talking when he turned to look at the boy again with a hard glare. "If you don't think I can do it, fine. But don't think you can make a fool of me." Baek wasn't gonna go on, but D.Os blank expression to his words bothered the heck out of him. "Just you watch, I'm gonna become stronger. And I'll be better than you." Baek marched away after receiving a small smirk from D.O.

To think the reason D.O had laughed at him that day was because he was so concentrated on hitting the tree in front him he didn't even notice he was holding the bow backward. Baek meant to apologize, he really did but he never really got the chance. D.O also seemed even more distant, and in the next class after what happened D.O somehow managed to challenge him with just one look that to Baek screamed, "You said you were going to be better than me, right?" and so whenever he trained he always did work hard to earn praise and good results. 

Chanyeol had placed the suitcases aside and stretched."I'll lead you to Kris room but I won't go in." Baek rose a brow but shrugged, "Where is my brot- Kris anyway?" Chanyeol gave his own shrug, "I don't know, but when he's out he won't be back till much later so you shouldn't wait." Baek nodded, of course his brother would be out. Why was Baek even expecting a warm welcome from the guy. "Alright.." 

Chanyeol also decided to give him a small tour to the place, but he could only say too much. "That's the kitchen we cook here." Baek rolled his eyes Well no damn. Chanyeol had caught the roll of eyes and sighed, "You can't go in it. To be more detailed, it's Kyungsoo's kitchen. And off limits." Baek's eyes widened, "What if I'm in need of a midnight snack?" Chanyeol couldn't help but laugh, and Baek couldn't help but love his laugh. "Well come to my room and we can sneak some in." he winked and continued with his 'tour'. Baekhyun wasn't sure if Chanyeol meant what he said, or if he even realized he just gave Baek permission to creep into his room..and wait..didn't Chanyeol share a room with someone. Kyungsoo maybe? "Don't you share a room though?" When Chanyeol turned around, Baek chuckled nervously, "We wouldn't want to wake anyone up." Baek continued to chuckle nervously until he relaxed when he heard Chanyeol's small laughter again. "Kris, Xiumin, and I are the only ones who have a room to ourselves. Well Kris not anymore." he smirked "If you thought, like everyone else in campus that I shared a room with my boyfriend then you're wrong." Baek furrowed his brows, "Well of course I'd think so, he's your boyfriend." Chanyeol smiled, "Well yeah, he is. But that doesn't mean we have to sleep together. We're already sleeping under the same roof.'' Baek hummed, "Wait, but then he shares a room, right?" Chanyeol nodded, "With Kai. Suho shares one with Lay." Baek looked at Chanyeol curiously, "And you don't mind?" Chanyeol chuckled, they were now standing in front a wooden door in the middle of a hallway and Baek couldn't help but notice it was the only door with a golden door knob. "This is your room. Suho helped make space for your stuff and made you a bed. It's also late so you should just sleep and wait till tomorrow to unpack." Baekhyun crossed his arms. He didn't answer my question. I won't push him though I guess.. "I should, and you should too." He smiled up at his idol, only to notice the guy smiling back at him. Gawd how can someone have such a perfect smile? "Thanks..for helping me move that is." Chanyeol looked away and his lips became a thin straight line leaving Baekhyun to miss his smile. "You're welcome. I look forward to your stay." Baek let out a small giggle, "I look forward to seeing your morning hair." The taller scoffed and turned to walk away, not before looking to Baek with a small smirk. "You'd have to be dreaming kid. I never have never had a bad hair day. Also, no one wakes me up till 11 in the morning." He shot a playful glare before walking away.

 How come Baekhyun suddenlt found it easy to talk to Chanyeol? He'd been stuttering for about ten years now. Starting tomorrow, Baek would be a part of Camp Exodus, as a guest of course. But the excitement he felt was a lot, and now his cheeks hurt from smiling too much. 

"Woah~" The room was as big as the living room. Huge. Kris left side had a king size bed with golden sheets and the walls were painted a beautiful shade of brown, there were posters up of popular rap stars Baek recognized from Tao and chen's own collection. Next to the bed was a drum set and to the other side a giant mirror. All looked simple yet fancy. On the right was the door to the bathroom wide open, it was just like the one he had in the other camp except a tad bit bigger and with golden touches. "This is certainly Kris room. To the side was what Baekhyun thought a walk in closet, the lights were on and he could see it was filled with fancy yet casual clothes, as well as color coordinated shoes. Baek cringed, "I'm nothing like this..." How are we related...

 Baek rolled his suitcase to a corner and looked to the neat and smaller bed in front him. It's sheets and pillows were all dark brown and puffy. He yawned and sat atop. Once his hands touched the blanket he awe'd "This is incrediebly soft.." He jumped a bit and smiled, "It's springy and comfy.." He finally laid back with a soft laugh. This felt nice, all of this. Too bad it'd end soon...the centaurs would surely get to building his camp soon and when that came Baek would be gone. If he didn't make it to Exodus by that time that is. He wanted to be in this camp since trainee days. Chanyeol had made it (as expected), and so did six others Baek envied and admired at the same time. "You like it?" He was startled and quickly stood up to see Chanyeol leaning on the entrance, "Uh, yeah..it's nice." He watched the giant cringe as he looked around the room. "I honestly think Kris has a terrible taste in color." Baek laughed, "Too much gold, huh?" he nodded and then smiled, "I rather black and white." Baek smiled too, "Same here, but I don't mind if there were pastel colors too." Chanyeol nodded in agreement. "So, what are you doing here? Just came by to check if I liked it?" he let himself smirk a bit but it was gone with a roll of Parks eyes. "No. I can't sleep and I heard noise from your room. Not that you're loud, my room is just right beside your wall." Baek blushed, "Sorry..I can't fall asleep." 

"Want to watch a movie then?"

 Okay, so I'm trying to update daily. I just got busy yesterday, and I don't know if I'll be busy tomorrow as well. But yes, It likely I'll be updating. Also, comments and votes help a lot! Also, I'm leaving how the camp looks to your imagination. It's of course has things from a different era and yet it's up to date with things like you read in the campsites so you could only imagine. And that's only because I'm terrible at describing things sorry! But I hope to improve!

Please stay tuned and keep on loving Chanbaek ! <3
