Summary: Chanyeol's a gangster with a soft spot for Irene and Baekhyun's holding hands with a douche.
- - - - - - - - - - -
Chanyeol meets Jongdae the day after Baekhyun officially gets his gangster membership card. He doesn't agree with it. In fact, he's even more annoyed now that his friends actually like Baekhyun.
But Chanyeol can't explain why he can't stand the posh douche who's holding the runt's hand in the hallway.
They pass by each other and Chanyeol knows that Baekhyun sees him because they make eye contact. The stupid idiot smiles at him and sticks his tongue out, and Chanyeol just rolls his eyes, turning his head away.
"Can we take a ride in your BMWi8?" Baekhyun says, loudly. He's trying too hard to be heard and everyone in the hallway can hear him. "I've never been in a BMW."
"Yeah! I'll drive you home."
Chanyeol gags. Looking back, he expects to see the latter swinging his arms around with Jongdae, but of course, he turns around the same exact time Baekhyun tries to sneak a look at him, too.
Their eyes meet again and Chanyeol can see the satisfaction in Baekhyun's big, fat eyes. But their moment gets cut short when Chanyeol bumps into another person's body.
Just as he's about to take out his irritation for Baekhyun on another poor soul, Chanyeol stops. "Oh, hey..."
It's Irene.
"Oh, uh, hey, Chanyeol." She rubs her elbow and for a second, Chanyeol kind of worries whether or not he hurt her. "Sorry for bumping into you. I was a bit distracted and--"
"Don't worry about it," Chanyeol says a little too quickly. Shit. Sticking his hands in his pockets, he kind of tries to look cool, but he knows he's actually more intimidating. "Next time, just watch where you're going."
He doesn't mean to make it sound like a threat, but he comes off that way.
Irene laughs nervously and looks to her friends. "I will. Sorry again."
"I'll let it slide."
"Thanks--"
"Hey, guys! What's happening over here?"
Chanyeol glares at the runt who stuck himself between him and Irene. Of course, BMW-owning-douche Jongdae is there, too. Putting a hand on Baekhyun's chest, Chanyeol pushes him slightly backwards.
"Can you stop being annoying for, like, 10 minutes?"
Baekhyun moves his hand off of him. "I'm just saying hi to Irene."
"Um--"
"Yeah? You ran all the way over here to say hi to her?" Chanyeol sarcastically asked. His eyes glances down and sees that Baekhyun was clenching his hands. It doesn't go unnoticed how he's still holding Jongdae's hand.
"Yeah, because we're friends!"
"Ugh, alright. What ever."
Chanyeol starts walking away again, but this time, Baekhyun lets go of Jongdae's hand and follows after him. It's not until they're near the stairs that the giant finally turns around, surprising the brunet.
"Why're you following me?"
"I just wanted to make sure you were okay! You looked a little jealous!"
Cocking his head, Chanyeol walks up to him, backing him up until the boy's back was against the wall. "I looked a little jealous?" he asks, incredulous. "Is your middle name 'Blind' or something!?"
"No, I don't have a middle name! Do you?"
Realizing that Baekhyun's just trying to be cute at this point, Chanyeol smashes his hand on the wall next to the brunet's head. It kind of hurts, but he wanted to seem scary. "Okay, what the hell do you actually want?"
"I want you to admit that you were jealous!"
"Fat chance--"
"Then why were you glaring at Jongdae?"
Locking his jaw, Chanyeol scowls. "I wasn't fucking glaring," he says, but he can see that Baekhyun's not convinced. "But even if I was, it's because both of you were being loud as hell. Like, shut the fuck up! Everyone can hear your stupid conversation!"
"Including you?" Baekhyun smiles.
"Yeah--" Chanyeol pauses. "Wait--"
"So you are jealous!"
"I don't even fucking like you!" Chanyeol heaves his chest. "I like Irene."
Immediately, Baekhyun's face drops. "You're lying."
"I'm not, runt."
"Yes, you are," Baekhyun insists, using both of his hands to push back the giant.
Chanyeol hangs his head. God, he was so frustrating. "Actually, you know what? You wanna know why I like her? She's quiet and cute. She's also very nice and not annoying. You know, she's literally everything that's not you."
Biting his lower lip, Baekhyun looks like a pup. "You're just saying that to make me feel bad."
"Yeah, exactly. She's my ideal and you're just a pain in my ass!"
For the first time, Chanyeol actually sees Baekhyun kind of... angry. "God, why the hell are you so effing stubborn!"
"Wh--"
Pushing his finger into Chanyeol's chest, Baekhyun continues to fight back. "You're so bad at feelings! I beat you yesterday and you didn't even say you were impressed! Even your friends said they were surprised!" he starts. "Then today you can't even admit you kept looking at Jongdae and I holding hands! You were jealous and you won't admit it! Now, you're pretending to have a crush on Irene when everyone in school knows that she likes girls, not you!"
Words fail Chanyeol. For once, Baekhyun wins this round of verbal war fare.
