"Baekhyun-hyung is sick, Chanyeol. He's dying. And you know why?" Kyungsoo asked.
"W-why?" He asked nervously.
Kyungsoo scoffs, "Are you really that dense, Park Chanyeol? It's because of you! He's sick because of you! His life is in great danger, why? BECAUSE OF YOU!"
Chanyeol avoids Kyungsoo's eyes.
If he were to describe one thing he's feeling right now, it's probably guilt.
He feels guilty because he left his husband without any reason at all. He feels guilty because, because of him, his husband's life is in danger.
If he could recall everything that happened on that night correctly, they were just happily playing Monopoly when Baekhyun suddenly mentioned the word Taeyeon.
For the longest time, Chanyeol is jealous at Taeyeon because if it's not for him, Baekhyun wouldn't know Taeyeon in the first place.
Chanyeol and Taeyeon were childhood friends, and if it weren't for Chanyeol's stupidity, she wouldn't know Baekhyun.
Back during their highschool days, Chanyeol knew that his bestfriend, Taeyeon, has her eyes on their petite senior.
"Chanyeol-ah, Baekhyun-sunbae is so handsome!" Taeyeon told Chanyeol. While Chanyeol, on the other hand, is struggling to find the thing that's making their sunbae special.
He suddenly remembered the Baekhyun that saved his life when they were 11. He was far different back then.
Irritated, Chanyeol just forced a smile and said, "Yeah... he's really handsome," even though ge really wanted to say, "what's special about him anyway?" But he knew that if he said that, his and Taeyeon's friendship would be over.
Because the love of Taeyeon should also be the love of Chanyeol.
One day, he just saw his bestfriend crying while her head was resting on her knees.
"Taeyeonnie? What happened?" He approached her.
Taeyeon looked at Chanyeol with red, puffy eyes.
"I saw someone..."
"Someone...?" Chanyeol raised a brow. What is she talking about?
"I saw a girl kissed Baekhyun on the cheek," And with that, Chanyeol wants to laugh so hard right then and there. But he needs to compose himself. He shouldn't laugh at his bestfriend.
Why would Baekhyun let a girl kiss him? He knows him too well. He isn't straight.
"Hey... shh.. don't cry.. maybe the girl you're talking about is just a fan and Baekhyun-sunbae just gave her a fanservice," Chanyeol said, trying to stop her devastated bestfriend from crying.
"Psh, fanservice my ass. It looked liked he really enjoyed it," Taeyeon rolled her eyes and wiped her tears.
"I'm sorry that you have to see me like this, Chanyeol. I just realized that I look so pathetic," She scoffed, and Chanyeol wasn't amused at her attitude.
Projects, homeworks, group works, exams. Probably the worst things that ever existed.
For now, Chanyeol has to finish his Biology report and finish their script for their play.
He and a certain someone needs to do the final revision for their English play, they will do a renake of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet.
He's a director and a script writer, and guess who's the other script writer? Yes, none other than Byun Baekhyun.
"Where is that guy? It's already late and we need to pass this on time!" Chanyeol said, frustrated.
As if on cue, the door of the audio visual room opened, and it released Baekhyun.
"Oh my Gosh, I'm so sorry, I'm late. I needed to run some errands. I'm really sorry," he said while approaching Chanyeol.
Chanyeol didn't say anything. He just waited for Baekhyun to shut hs mouth and just occupy the seat beside him.
"Sunbae--"
"Aish! Why do everyone call me that?! It makes me feel so old. Just call me Baekhyun."
"Isn't that too informal?"
"I don't care if it's too informal or not. Just. don't. call. me. sunbae. or. sunbaenim," Baekhyun said.
Chanyeol chuckled, "Whatever you say, Baek."
"Better." Baekhyun smiles at Chanyeol, his eyes forms a crescent-like shape and his lips forming a rectangle-like shape.
"Oh, so this is Byun Baekhyun. I see... is this really the guy who saved me 7 years ago? How come that he don't recognize me" Chanyeol says inside his head.
"Are you done with the revisions?" Baekhyun asked while his eyes are scanning every word that is encoded on the paper.
"Some... Just do the final checks," Chanyeol said and Baekhyun nodded.
"Oh," Baekhyun said like he just remembered something. "I'm Baekhyun. Byun Baekhyun. I suppose you already know me?" That was a question. Not a statement.
Chanyeol nodded and smiled, "Park Chanyeol. Yes, I know you. You saved me 7 years ago," he shook Baekhyun's hand.
"Saved?"
"Yes, from Ji-ha,"
"You're that kid?!"
Chanyeol nods.
After a few weeks of practice, he and Baekhyun became close as ever, like nothing could separate them.
While Taeyeon, on the other hand, wants to kill Chanyeol right then and there.
"Okay, action!" Chanyeol said and the actors went on stage.
But as if on cue, his phone rang. He furrowed his eyebrows when he saw Taeyeon calling.
What is it this time?
"Yes? We're busy practicing, why did you call?" Chanyeol said emotionlessly. As if Taeyeon was in front of him.
"I hate you. I hate you so fucking much." Taeyeon said.
"What did I do?"
"Two words, Chanyeol. Byun Baekhyun,"
"Yeah? What's with Baekhyun?"
"I see... you even forgot your manners."
"Kim Taeyeon, can you not?"
"What? am I right or am I right?" He can feel that Taeyeon is smirking on the other line.
"Meet me during lunch. I'll... I'll introduce you to him,"
Chanyeol knew that introducing Taeyeon to Baekhyun is a bad idea. Because now, now that they know each other, Chanyeol is like a wind who's just passing.
They wouldn't even notice that Chanyeol is righ in front of him.
Yes, he's jealous. Not because Taeyeon already found her happiness. But because... maybe... just maybe... he already like Baekhyun. Maybe he already likes the person who saved him from embarrassment years ago.
"Hey," Chanyeol greeted Baekhyun. Who's currently alone.
"Oh, hey!" He greeted back, looking up from his phone.
"Wait for me, I'll be back. I'll just order coffee," He said and Baekhyun smiled.
When he got back, he noticed that Baekhyun isn't alone anymore. He's with someone, and that someone... is his own bestfriend.
It's the cue when he walks towards their table and sit beside Taeyeon, who's sitting in front of Baekhyun, and it's the cue when the two will have their own little world.
But Chanyeol accidentally knocks over his coffee and to his luck, it poured over Baekhyun's lap.
"Shit! I'm sorry! shit, I'm really really sorry, sunbaenim," Chanyeol emphasized the word "sunbaenim" just to get his attention.
"Chanyeol," Baekhyun said with a warning.
Chanyeol just gave him a look.
"Yah! Pabo, Chanyeol!" Taeyeon said while hitting Chanyeol's left arm.
It hurts but he can bare with it.
"Baekhyunie, I have something to tell you," Taeyeon said to Baekhyun. In which Chanyeol feels like he needs to get out of there because shit is about to drop.
"Yeah? What is it?"
"I like you," she said.
"I knew it." Chanyeol said inside his head. He's not that stupid. He knew that this day would come.
Because of him, his bestfriend is gone. And because of him... his lovelife is now ruined.
Introducing Taeyeon to Baekhyun was one of the worst things that he made.
"I'm sorry..." Baekhyun gave Taeyeon an apologetic look.
Chanyeol kept his blank expression on, showing no emotions. Even though he's really happy and relieved to hear that.
"I like someone else," Baekhyun said as he looked at Chanyeol, who is now also looking at him too.
