This is actually a story I wrote at the same time as "Shake My Heart." I was trying to decide which one to enter into the Sebaek Fic Fest, but ultimately picked "Shake My Heart." Still, I hope you all enjoy this one as well! Remember, this is just a preview, to read the whole story please support me by getting a copy of Ventustella Volume 1~

By the way, for the previews I will be using the members real names. But in the actual book, they will be changed.

Baekhyun was a loudmouth, but an adorable loudmouth. Everyone adored him at their school, and there wasn't one person he didn't get along with. He knew how to turn any situation into a cheerful moment, and was often praised for making people smile even when they didn't want to. Baekhyun could easily read people's moods and understand how to talk to them.

Everyone except Oh Sehun.

Baekhyun was at a loss when it came to the tall, broad shouldered, extremely handsome, quiet, and intimidating student that sat behind him in class. He tried to start up a conversation with him a few times and make friends, but he was only answered with silence and Sehun's dark, cold eyes staring back at him.

However, Baekhyun continued to try and occasionally talk to him, even if he was always greeted with the same silence. Honestly, it kind of drove him nuts. It became a goal of his, or even possibly an obsession, to get any reaction out of Sehun.

The truth was, Sehun liked him a lot. Like a lot a lot. He was just shy. He froze whenever Baekhyun tried to talk to him, and his poker face didn't show how panicked he was inside. Baekhyun was one of the most popular kids in school, and he was a nobody. He was afraid of making a fool of himself.

Even if he did manage to say something to Baekhyun one day, he couldn't imagine him ever tolerating someone as quiet and boring as he was. Baekhyun always had something witty and amusing to say, entertaining others with ease. He was abounding with energy, a never ending loose canon of excitement that was impossible to control. Sehun had even seen Baekhyun stand on his table a few times during lunch, shouting out something at his friends in loud enthusiasm. His friends would shout along with him, adding to the energy of Baekhyun's excitement. After all, Baekhyun got along well with people like that, people that were similar to his personality, like Chanyeol. Sehun couldn't possibly compete.

So, Sehun was left simply admiring Baekhyun, realizing it would probably always be an unrequited affection. Sadly, because Baekhyun sat in front of him, Sehun didn't see Baekhyun's face much, but whenever Baekhyun did turn around, Sehun would blush from Baekhyun's beautiful features.

Sehun thought he was like some kind of angel, everything about Baekhyun was ethereal. His hands, his smile, his eyes...Everything made Sehun melt inside.
