CHANYEOL'S POV

*Ding dong*

I run to the door cause Minseok said he's on his way. It's my Baekkie.

I smile, "Hey, my love"

I step outside because I don't want my mom to see Baekhyun. My dad didn't allow my mom to kick me out so my ass is saved... for now.

"Chanyeol... I've been lagging on tell you. But... You have no idea how much I love you. And you deserve to be happy. And I would never want to hurt you-"

"Why are you saying that? Are you breaking up with me?"

Baekhyun slowly nods

I take a deep breathe, "Wow... why? I thought you were happy with me?"

"Chanyeol... my mom is sending me away"

"What?"

"I'm leaving today with Onew"

"Why is your mom doing this, Baek?" I ask

"With me being on the news everyday because of Kris. It's giving the company a bad name... so mom is sending me away. Until Kris is found. At least, that's what she told. I can't come back unless he's found"

I feel a huge pain in my chest, "So... it's your mom- not because you don't love me-"

"Of course, Chanyeol. I love you so much," Baek hugs me

I smile, "I love you too. But then- we don't have to break up. We can still be together. Like long distance relationship"

Baekhyun shakes his head, "No, Chanyeol. I have to cut ties with everyone. Officer Kwon's orders"

"But you're leaving with Onew?"

"Onew is only helping settling. He wont stay there with me for long," Baekhyun explains

"For how long?" I ask

Baekhyun shrugs and sniffles, "I don't know. It could be a year or two. Or even more"

"Baekhyun, I'll wait for you. You know I will-"

"NO... no, Chanyeol. I don't want that"

I knit my eyebrows, "But why not?!"

"Because, we're young. We shouldn't commit to each other for years to come. I want you to move on. Because I will. Not to hurt you-"

"But you're hurting me right now!" I cry

Baekhyun grabs me and kisses me. I feel tears falling and kiss him back

He let's go of me, "This is goodbye, Chanyeol. You'll always be my first love"

"And your mine," I say

Baekhyun smiles and heads to the gate

I call out to him, "Baekhyun!"

He turns to look at me.

"Please... don't forget about me"

Baekhyun smiles, "Never"

"You promise?"

"Promise"

I try to smile and rub my eyes from the crying. I look towards the gate. He's gone

I sit on stairway and cry

Baekhyun. My Baekkie. Is gone
