Chapter 1- Hello~

**Chanyeol's POV~**

Two months have passed since Baekhyun brought up the idea of us getting married, and there hasn't been a single day where I haven't reminded myself about it. We started living together a month ago, when I finally got a larger apartment. Still, he isn't even upset that I haven't even proposed yet, even after we've been dating for three years already. He's the best, and only boyfriend I've ever had, so I've never made him mad. My friends say I spoil him too much, but what do they know? It's not like they know how great of a guy Baekkie is!

All that ran through my head while I searched for my car keys. "Where are they? Where are they? Are they here? Nope!" I muttered. I couldn't seem to find my car keys anywhere. I sighed. "Oh well, guess it looks like I'll have to walk to the office today."

So, I opened the door, grabbed an umbrella --for rainy emergencies-- and stepped outside. Sure enough, it was another rainy day; the fifth week in a row. I sighed again. Why did I lose my car keys on a rainy day like this? It must've been a bad luck day for me.

I opened the umbrella and looked back at the door. It was already eleven o'clock in the morning, but Baekhyun was still asleep. I smiled as I remebered his sleeping face. He looked so cute, I really wanted to pinch his cheeks.

I turned back to face the streets. "Bye, Baekkie," I whispered. "Stay safe." I set off to work.

**Baekhyun's POV**

I opened my eyes and yawned. I looked at the clock beside my bed which read 11:05AM. I chuckled. "Channie... Why did you let me sleep in this late?" Sometimes, I think he spoils me too much. I've told him once, but he said he does it only because he loves me so much.

I honestly can't believe I deserve him. He's such a cutie, and is very, very kind. He never makes me mad, but he teases me a lot, which I love most about him.

I yawned and dragged myself out of bed. I was just about to go get ready to see Kyungsoo when I saw a note next to my cell phone. It read, 'Hey Baekkie, good morning. Sorry I didn't wake you up, but I was running late for work. I couldn't seem to find my car keys, so I'm walking to work. ㅋㅋㅋ Stay safe with Kyungsoo, 'kay? Love, Channie♡'

Chanyeol's walking to work? I looked out the window and sighed. It was another rainy day. I hoped he would be alright and wouldn't catch a cold. I hate seeing him sick, but I like staying by his side all day.

Suddenly, my phone started ringing. "Oh, right! Kyungsoo," I remembered. I picked up my phone and answered.

"Hello? Baekyun? It's me, Kyungsoo!"

I smiled. "Hey Kyung! What's up?"

"What's up??? I'm standing alone, in the middle of the park, waiting for you for an hour is what's up! Where are you? I'm freezing cold. Brrrr," he whined. It was so cute. He sounded just like a little kid.

"Oh, I'm so sorry Kyungie. I'll be there in fifteen minutes."

"Hmph, fine. Then you owe me some ice cream."

"Awww... Fine. I'll see you there then."

"Yay!" he cheered. "See ya later! Bye Baek~"

"Kekeke. Bye Kyung" I hung up.

Time to get ready...

**Kyungsoo's POV**

I sat on a bench as I waited for Baekhyun to come. I sighed. Why did Chanyeol have to spoil him so much? Don't get me wrong, I like the giant, but he sometimes scares me with his height, though I find Baekhyun and Chanyeol's love and height difference really cute, but sometimes I wish I had someone to love...

"No," I reminded myself. "Remember, Kyungsoo. Your goals come first, and relationships come second." I stared at the ground.

"Oh really?" a voice asked. I turned to face the person and beamed at him when he sat next to me. "I didn't know you wanted a boyfriend. Kekeke. I'm just kidding. I actually knew that for some time. By the way, sorry I kept you waiting."

"Nah, don't worry about it," I said to Baekhyun. "As long as you'll give me ice-cream, it's fine." I stuck my tongue out at him, and he laughed. After a while, I eyed him and asked, "Anyway, how could you tell I wanted a relationship? Is it that obvious?"

He shrugged. "I dunno. But I think I could tell because of how lonely you look sometimes." I laughed a bit, then saw that Baekhyun wasn't laughing. "Wait, you were serious?"

He shrugged again, and gave me a smile. "I just think that you should try giving relationships a chance, y'know. I don't want you being a loner forever." He laughed. "Besides, I know tons of guys who like you."

"Baek... I don't think I'm gay like you."

"Aw, come on! I know you are. I can sense it in you," he teased as he tickled me, making me laugh really hard. I was very, very ticklish and he knew that.

I gasped for air. When I could finally speak, I answered, "Fine, but only if it's not you who plans the dates," I teased back.

We both laughed. "Deal," Baekhyun answered. "Anyway, while we're still here, let's go get some ice-cream!"

I wrapped my arm around him. "Yeah, let's go!"

He wrapped his arm around me as well, and we set off to go ice-cream hunting.

I never knew that conversation would make me fall a tinsy bit in love with Baekhyun...
