As usual Chanyeol got to school earlier than most for basketball practice. It was the season and they had to play in a regional tournament very soon so their coach was working them extra hard.
After practice he took a shower before throwing on a sleeveless shirt and jeans and heading to the library to sort out the books people had left scattered the previous day.
Putting on his reading glasses he got right to work.
"Wow. You don't see that everyday" he heard someone say but as soon as he turned he frowned.
"You have got to be kidding me. How many times do I have to tell you to leave me the hell alone?" Chanyeol was tired of Hyuns advances.
He loved Hyun so much in the past but he was thrown away like some piece of trash.
Chanyeol had enough self respect not to put himself in such a situation again.
"Wow okay...I guess I'm sorry for whatever reason and you only have to tell me once" the person responded and that's when Chanyeol took a good look at him.
He sounded different and looked...different as well.
"Hyun?" Chanyeol called out as the other male turned to leave.
The male turned back to Chanyeol as realization dawned on him.
"Ohhhhh this totally makes sense now. Let me introduce myself. I'm Baek Byun. Hyuns twin brother" Baek said as he offered his hand in greeting.
"Baek...I'm so sorry I thought you were Hyun...wow you guys are exactly the same..again I'm sorry" Chanyeol responded feeling guilty he had attacked the wrong person as he shook his hand. Then he remembered the picture he had seen of a younger Baek and Hyun once when he had visited.
"Its alright. You're like the 20th person to think I'm Hyun. The only difference was the rest of my encounters were confessions. Now that I actually met and attractive guy I experienced my first rejection" Baek said with a reassuring smile.
Chanyeol smiled at the complement before remembering what Baek first said.
"What did you mean by your first comment?" Chanyeol asked with a smile. He relaxed knowing this wasn't Hyun he was dealing with.
Now that he got a better look at the blond male standing before he he easily picked out the differences he had with Hyun.
"Oh that" Baek responded as he looked away and Chanyeol didn't miss the blush that crossed his cheeks, "First of all I wasn't following you around or drooling over your muscles while you were practicing basketball. I was just giving myself a tour of the school before attending my first day here and I realise I'm embarrassing myself even more and so I will shut up" he said blushing even more.
"No its okay. Go on" Chanyeol encouraged already enjoying the conversation.
"I'm sorry I'm socially awkward and you weren't meant to hear that comment...I just...its just that you were a total hot jock when I first saw you and a total hot nerd now. I know this is off topic but your phoenix tattoo on your arm is so cool and that's not something you see everyday and there I go rambling again" Baek blushed again as he covered his face.
"You're so different" Chanyeol said with a smile.
"From Hyun..."
"No. From everyone"
"Is that a bad thing?"
"No. Its refreshing"
..........
"So where is your better half?" Sehun asked as they walked to class.
"You mean worse half. I don't know and don't care. He left real early in the morning" Hyun responded with a frown.
Eversince their parents divorced Hyun hadn't seen Baek in a long time or even spoken to him.
He was mad about what happened and hated them both and so he ignored them.
When he found out his mom had passed away he broke down.
His father didn't stay long and immediately left him alone to drown in his own grief.
He was alone eversince his mother and brother abandoned him with a man who cared more about his businesses and girlfriends.
After the funeral Baek had to move back in with them and Hyun had no choice but to accept it but that didn't mean he had to acknowledge his presence.
They were basically strangers living in the same house.
"He can't be that bad" Kai said and at that moment Baek walked out of the library with Chanyeol.
"Just follow the directions I gave you and you won't get lost" Chanyeol said with a smile.
"Thanks Yeol. See you around" Baek reaponded with and even bigger smile.
Sehun and Kai gave each other a look before turning to Hyun who looked ready to murder someone but his next action was even more shocking.
"Baekkie there you are. I have been looking everywhere for you" he said with his usual dazzling snile before turning to face Chanyeol who immediately excused himself and left.
As soon as he was gone he frowned and turned to his brother. "Its not even an hour and you're already pissing on my territory" Hyun said and Baek gave him a puzzled look.
"You said you don't want to hear from me, speak to me or see me but here you are in front of me. I have done everything to stay out of your way Hyun" Baek said rolling his eyes in annoyance.
Baek didn't hate his brother but he hated his attitude towards him since the divorce.
"I'm only going to say this once. Stay away from Chanyeol" Hyun whispered with a glare before walking back to his friends.
Before Baek could conclude what this all meant he heard an all too familiar voice.
"Baekkie" he turned to see his best friend.
"Kyungie" Baek ran and hugged Kyungsoo.
"Baek I'm glad you're finally back. I missed you so much" they hugged again.
"I'm back now. We have so much to catch up on" Baek said as he held his friends had and they happily walked to class.
Many people were shocked at how the all serious student body president had transformed right before their eyes. Especially Kai. His smile got his heart beating at unnatural speeds.
"Hyun?" Kai said with pleading eyes.
"Oh my gosh. Yes they are like best friends since we were kids. No I will not have you befriending my idiot brother to get hookup or else our friendship is over and no Sehun I'm over Chanyeol please stop looking at me like that" Hyun said before he rushed to class leaving them behind.
