Eight

The family breakfast table was surprisingly too quiet except the sound of spoons, forks and chopsticks. The grandmother of Chanyeol didn't say a word since Baekhyun and Chanyeol sat for the breakfast and Luhan also didn't.

Wondering why Luhan was here? It was a mystery for Baekhyun too. When he thought about it, Luhan was here since Chanyeol took Baekhyun to introduce him as his bride. And, he was also here when they arrived home at the midnight.

"I will leave for company now."

Chanyeol put his spoon down and stood up, then pulled Baekhyun up from his seat, too. While chewing the sausage in his mouth, Baekhyun almost choked on the sweet cylindrical pork when Chanyeol took a tissue to wipe Baekhyun's oily lips.

"I will also take him with me."

Not enough with being grabbed without knowing the current situation, Baekhyun was again forced to get onto the car too. Chanyeol also got on and sat on the passenger seat beside him. The driver started the engine as soon as they both got on and wore the seatbelt.

"I didn't even change my clothes."

Baekhyun said while looking down to his casual home style clothes, white long sleeves shirt with a Mickey Mouse sticker on the top left and a pair of long blue pants. Thanks God that Chanyeol gave him enough time to change into his shoes, but he didn't get a chance to change his socks with the sticker of Donald Duck on them.

Baekhyun pouted while looking down to his own clothes and Chanyeol found it cute.

"A true Disney fan."

Chanyeol sneakily threw a glance to Baekhyun's socks and murmured, however, Baekhyun heard it and shyly pulled down the edges of the pants in order that his childish socks would be hidden.

"It's cold outside."

Chanyeol said when he slid down the car window a little to feel the weather outside. To be honest, Baekhyun did not have enough sleep as it was his first time to get up at six o'clock after riding a more than twelve hours flight.

"Can you lend your lap for me?"

Baekhyun said with his puppy eyes and Chanyeol nodded, patting his lap. Baekhyun smiled and put his head on Chanyeol's lap. Chanyeol played with Baekhyun's soft hair and brushed it off when Baekhyun closed his eyes.

Seeing Baekhyun's side view from sixty degrees west of south angle made Chanyeol's heart flutter because of the adorable boy's overflowing cuteness. Chanyeol pinched Baekhyun's cheek lightly and when the shorter moaned with sleepiness, he laughed.

At the moment, he felt so free, so free without worrying anything about his duties. And, he felt so comfortable with the unfamiliar freedom.

But, the free feeling did not last long as the company case crawled again into his mind. He sighed and closed his eyes, resting his head on the back rest.

"You look tired of your life, Chanyeol."

Baekhyun suddenly got up from sleeping on the taller's lap and stared at the taller who was wrinkling his eyebrows now. With a nod, Chanyeol opened his eyes and pulled Baekhyun's head into his embrace, smiled when he smelt the honey shampoo scent from Baekhyun's messy hair.

"But it is my life so I can't deny."

"When you need me, I am always here."

A finger poked the left chest of Chanyeol and he could spot an embarrassed emotion quickly ran across on Baekhyun's face.

"We are at the company entrance, Baekhyun. Come on, let's get off before other cars can give a honk."

Chanyeol signaled the driver to come and open the car door for them and told Baekhyun to get ready before the door opened. It was only seven o'clock, still two hours earlier before the work time to strike, so a few employees were there when they entered the company.

A big smile happened on Baekhyun's lips when Chanyeol took off his coat and put it on Baekhyun's body because it was cold. They both walked towards the elevator and Baekhyun couldn't stop wowing at the big company's modern decorations.

"M.D," A man ran to Chanyeol and Baekhyun guessed it might be Mr. Shim.

"Oh, Mr. Park, nice to meet you again."

Baekhyun was shocked to know at the word again because he couldn't remember where they had met before.

"I think you didn't notice Mr. Shim at the wedding."

Chanyeol explained the situation and put an arm on Baekhyun's shoulder. The latter felt smaller in his embrace but he liked it, so much that it couldn't be mentioned with words.

"Sorry, but nice to meet you."

"It's okay. Well, M.D, we have a meeting with the shareholders at 9 am, at that Chinese restaurant."

"We will leave here at 7:45 so. You must prepare everything in time."

"I will. So, have a good time together with Mr. Park," Mr. Shim said and left them alone again in front of the elevator.

"Do you want to stay at the company or come along with me to the meeting?"

Chanyeol asked after they both had entered the elevator and Chanyeol had pressed the floor number 15.

Baekhyun didn't want to be alone in an unfamiliar place without Chanyeol, but, on the other hand, he didn't also want to be a nuisance in his husband's business meeting. When he compared those two feelings, he decided to stay here because he wanted Chanyeol to do his work with ease in his mind.

"I will wait for you here. It's okay."

With a bright smile plastered on his lips, Baekhyun answered. Chanyeol did not reply any words except a single nod and it made Baekhyun feel a little unsatisfied, but he knew that he did not have a right or a reason to complain.

They reached the 15th floor soon and Chanyeol led the way to his office room. Baekhyun did not see anyone on the 15th floor except them. Baekhyun wanted to ask but he did not dare at the same time, too.

Chanyeol entered a room and saw an empty seat with a pile of files, a telephone and a wireless intercom on the table in front of it. Baekhyun thought that it might be Mr. Shim's seat. Chanyeol passed the place and headed to another door inside the room.

"You better stay in the room until I come back because this floor is dangerous for strangers."

Chanyeol said and motioned Baekhyun to sit on the leather couch, not even taking a look to the latter.

"Okay. I understand."

Chanyeol knew that Baekhyun sounded sad but all on his mind right now was the meeting, how to persuade the shareholders and how he should plan to beat against his grandma to get the company.

"If you are hungry, call this number to get food for you. You can order whatever you want."

"Okay."

"If you wanna use the toilet, it is that way."

"Yes."

"And, the room next to it is the bathroom."

"Uhm, I don't think I'll need to use it."

"Who knows? Well, if you wanna sleep, here is the couch and there is also the bedroom in the left side."

"Even the bedroom?"

Baekhyun did not expect that Chanyeol's office room would be that grand and great.

"Yes, I use it sometimes."

"It's okay. I am not a kid anymore. I can take care of myself here."

"You're a kid in my eyes though."

"What makes you see me as a kid?"

"Maybe," Chanyeol paused his words and scanned Baekhyun's body from head to toes. Being showered with piercing stares made Baekhyun feel embarrassed suddenly so he looked down to the floor.

"...your height? Ahem."

Chanyeol patted Baekhyun's head and it was an unexpected answer for Baekhyun.

"Don't be so proud because you are tall!"

"Why not? It's a charm for men."

"I don't think so."

"Of course you don't think so because you are short. Actually, having a good height has many advantages."

"Those are the first ones to get hurt if the sky suddenly falls."

"Tsk tsk, look at this midget who is jealous of my height but also doesn't want to admit it."

"Hey, Park Chanyeol ssi, I am not that short."

Baekhyun even jumped on his own feet and replied. Chanyeol laughed when he saw Baekhyun's childish action.

"Actually, I just was nervous because of the meeting. But, you reduced my stress for a moment at least."

Chanyeol suddenly became serious and his voice got deeper. Baekhyun felt butterflies flying in his stomach when he knew that he reduced Chanyeol's stress, secretly partying in his mind.

Knock knock

"Come in."

It was Mr. Shim.

"M. D, we will have to leave soon."

"Okay so. Baekhyun, be careful with yourself. You can text me anytime if something happens. Alright?"

"Noted, sir."

Baekhyun pretended to write something on his palm and replied Chanyeol with a bright smile which Chanyeol really loved.

"Good boy."

Chanyeol commented before he left the room with Mr. Shim.

"Mr. Shim, everything will be okay, right?"

"Of course."

They were now in front of the elevator, waiting for it to come up to the 15th floor.

"But, why am I feeling nervous?"

"Have you taken the medicine?"

"Yes, but still-"

A kiss?

Ears hearing his own heart pounding so hard, feeling the blood flowing rapidly, knowing the soft touch against his lips, his brain remembering the honey shampoo scent and his hands being familiar with the small waist on hold, it was unbelievably beautiful.

Baekhyun ran after them and suddenly grabbed Chanyeol's arm to turn him around, then pulled down the taller's nape. And kissed him. It lasted only a few seconds but Baekhyun knew that it was enough for Chanyeol to calm him down.

"Do your best in the meeting."

He whispered into Chanyeol's ear and planted a kiss on his left cheek before he let go of his arm.

"I will."

Chanyeol grabbed the tips of Baekhyun's fingers and replied with a smile.

"M. D."

"I know."

The elevator door was opening and Chanyeol gave a one last glance before he went into the elevator.

Baekhyun felt happy right now.

Because he finally could do something for Chanyeol.

"Oh, it already passed 1 o'clock. Sorry for disturbing your lunch break, Mr. Shim."

"No problem, sir."

"So, you can go now."

Chanyeol said and opened his office room.

"Where is he?"

It would be a lie if he said that he did not expect to see Baekhyun waiting for him in the room. The puzzle was solved when Chanyeol opened the bedroom door, he saw Baekhyun falling asleep under the thick blanket.

Baekhyun didn't wake up even he sat on the bed beside him, brushing off the hair strands which fell on the shorter's forehead. Chanyeol's eyes travelled from the closed eyelids and unmoving eyelashes to cute little nose whose tip was turning red due to the coldness and lastly, a pair of parted lips with the color of cherries.

"Hmm..."

The boy started moving a little and in a few seconds, his eyes opened to see Chanyeol. Baekhyun rubbed his eyes with his hands because he thought that he was just imagining Chanyeol to be here.

"Oh, Chanyeol is real."

Baekhyun smiled widely and pulled Chanyeol's hand, intertwined their fingers. Chanyeol was surprised with Baekhyun's sudden actions, but, he acted cool as usual and asked Baekhyun.

"Real? What do you mean by this?"

"I woke up twice before and you were here every time I woke up. But, actually, you were just imaginary Chanyeol at these times. However, this time, you return for real."

"Are you a kid to see imaginary images?"

"Yes, your kid."

Baekhyun rolled around the bed and acted cute when he said the kid thing. Chanyeol laughed and lay down beside Baekhyun, their hands still in contact.

"I have done all of my work so where do you want to go?"

"I just wanna return home, Chanyeol. Isn't it rude to stay outside all day as soon as we returned home from the honeymoon trip?"

"As your wish."

"Let's go home."

"Okay."

If Chanyeol knew that something bad would happen to Baekhyun when they went home, he wouldn't go home for sure. But, as he couldn't turn the time back, all he had to do was to act along with the situation.

A lunch together with the husband, the ex boyfriend and the ex boyfriend's step father who was the real father of the current husband.

It wasn't easy at all for Chanyeol. He could feel Baekhyun's fear and shock through the hand he held under the dining table. He felt sorry for Baekhyun as he couldn't do anything more than feeling sorry.

Like Baekhyun, the one who couldn't stay usual was no other than Luhan. He was one of the three people who knew that his step father was the real father of Baekhyun. Every time his step father cared for his mother, he felt insecure because of Baekhyun who was sitting right in front of him.

He felt insecure because he was once Chanyeol's fiancé and Chanyeol's grandma usually invited his parents over home for dinner or lunch. At those times, his parents were in the position of the parents in law of Chanyeol. And, this time, his parents were just guests.

He felt insecure because he could feel the bitter pain from the burning glare of Baekhyun when he stared at his father.

And, he felt insecure because Chanyeol thought that he was the one who made this so called family gathering.

But, to be honest, he did not do anything.

Beep

Luhan glanced down to his phone as he heard a beep sound. It was a message attached with a link, from unknown sender.

[From unknown: I am back, Han.
http://instagram.com/oohsehun]

Luhan clicked on the link and got shocked when he saw the social media account appeared on his phone screen. He almost choked on his own saliva and dropped his phone.

"Oh Sehun.."

Luhan let out a name under his breath. It was the name which gave him a lot of roller coaster feelings, the name of a badass who left him with his heart in pieces and the name of his first love.
