Fifteen
It had been 2 a.m and Chanyeol still did not appear in the room so Baekhyun decided to check his work room. He grabbed a sweater and put it on then took his steps towards the room where Chanyeol existed.
Knock knock
"Chanyeol, I'm coming in."
Turning the doorknob, Baekhyun was taken aback by the scene revealed when the door was fully open. The floor was messy with plenty of beer cans and Chanyeol had his head on the couch when his body was on the floor.
Still holding a can tightly in his hand, Chanyeol murmured some unclear words and Baekhyun immediately closed the door. He couldn't let others see Chanyeol's senseless and weak side.
"Chanyeol, be with yourself please."
Baekhyun patted Chanyeol's reddish cheeks and said but the taller was still in drunken stupor. At last, he gave up and sat beside Chanyeol in face to face position and scanned the drunk one's face.
"What makes you drink these?"
Baekhyun softly brushed Chanyeol's hair strands and touched the little pimple on the top right of his forehead.
"Why can't I help you?"
Baekhyun averted his eyes to the files of papers on the table and then his glares landed on the cans of beer.
It was his first time seeing Chanyeol drunk.
"How can't I forgive you, hubby?"
A kiss was planted on Chanyeol's left cheek and Baekhyun decided to carry him back to their room although he wasn't strong enough to do so.
Baekhyun patted Chanyeol's cheeks again and this time, the taller half opened his eyes.
"Chanyeol, this is not the right place to sleep. Come on, let's get back to our room."
Pulling Chanyeol's arms up, Baekhyun made Chanyeol sit on the floor successfully. But the problem was that he couldn't lift the giant.
"Don't you really go back to bedroom?"
Baekhyun sat down and asked Chanyeol. As a reply, Chanyeol closed his eyes and put his head on the couch again.
With a sigh, Baekhyun finally gave up and came out of the room, headed to their room. Honestly, he did not wish to see Joo Hyuk standing in front of their room.
"What are you doing here?"
Baekhyun asked and he noticed Joo Hyuk jolted a little when he heard Baekhyun.
"Nothing," he stepped aside and Baekhyun gave him an annoying glare but did not say anything. He quickly came into their room and took the pillows and the blanket, and the room key.
After locking the door, he headed to the work room again. Opening and then shutting and locking the door, he put the blanket and the pillows on the empty couch.
He collected the cans which were on the floor and put them into the bin. Then, he cleaned the place a bit more.
After doing all the stuffs he had to, Baekhyun gently covered Chanyeol's body with the blanket and put a pillow under his head. Then, he put his pillow on the floor right beside the couch and lay down.
He softly held onto Chanyeol's one hand and looked up to his giant husband.
Sleeping Chanyeol seemed like having a bad dream since he frowned his eyebrows and balled a fist tightly. Baekhyun just held his other hand tightly and whispered it's okay continuously.
On the other hand outside of the room, Joo Hyuk was standing with his back on the wall.
"I am sorry, Baekhyun," he murmured and sighed before continuing,"for telling your father about you."
+ + +
"Is hungover that bad?"
Chanyeol asked and gulped the honey that Baekhyun told him to drink. With a dizzy feeling, Chanyeol started his day and found out that he fell asleep in the work room last night.
He even couldn't remember how many beer cans he drank.
"You drank too much last night. Is there something disturbing you? Maybe your work?"
Baekhyun's question woke Chanyeol up to face the reality.
"Yes,..," Chanyeol paused his words and smiled. How could he forget the scene that the old Byun's face brightened up at his one promise? How could he forget the moment when he was the one who locked up his own heart?
"Something is disturbing me so bad."
Chanyeol put the glass of honey on the table and sighed. Soft hands ran into his hair and it was when Chanyeol realized that his head was leaning on Baekhyun's chest.
"Everything will be okay because I am here beside you," said Baekhyun and Chanyeol bitterly smiled.
Everything will turn bad when you are gone, Baekhyun.
"I heard that an important meeting will be held tomorrow."
Baekhyun asked as he massaged Chanyeol's temples.
"Yes, a very important one."
"After that, can you get a holiday?"
"Why?"
"Let's go to the place where my mom lay in peace."
That smile never went off even though he was saying about his mom who passed away years ago. Chanyeol knew that this boy suffered a lot more than he could imagine.
"Yes, of course."
"I always wanted to go see my mom with the one I love."
Baekhyun said and put his chin on Chanyeol's head, hugging the taller's head lightly. Chanyeol's heart bumped at the last four words but he maintained his steady figure.
"I will have to prepare to go to company."
Chanyeol finally pushed Baekhyun's waist with not much force but it made the latter gasp in shock. It was the first ever time that Chanyeol pushed him from the hug.
"I will go get your suits so you just take a quick shower."
Baekhyun quickly ran out of the room.
"Everything is wrong since from the start."
Chanyeol murmured and closed his eyes. He also wanna get out of this tight situation, too, while holding Baekhyun's hand tightly.
+ + +
"It's ₩ 3400"
Baekhyun gave the payment to the salesgirl and took the recycle bag filled with drinks from the cashier. There's no one at home except the maids and he also didn't wanna spend another whole day inside the room so he decided to buy something and go meet Luhan who was staying at Sehun's house.
To be honest, it was Luhan who told him about the meeting that would be held tomorrow and not to make Chanyeol feel pressured. He said even their tomorrows depended on the meeting so Chanyeol also felt stressed.
Baekhyun didn't attend university or college so he did not have an idea about how the shares were important or how the company ran so he decided not to ask Chanyeol. But he was also curious about the current situation of the company as Chanyeol seemed to be in bad mood in these days.
That was why he wanted to meet Luhan and asked the latter his address. He also wanna cheer Luhan because he knew that Luhan was also having a bad time in between his grandmother and his boyfriend.
Baekhyun pushed the glass door and got out of the market.
"Baekhyun..."
He froze at the spot when someone called his name. Baekhyun turned around to see a very familiar face. That someone who left little Baekhyun and his mom, that someone whose surname was the same as Baekhyun's.
"...you.."
"Baekhyun ah."
"Let go off my hand!"
The bag fell onto the ground and Baekhyun took his steps back. Unbelievably staring at his father who was in front of him, Baekhyun felt his legs becoming weak.
"Son.."
"NO! Who is your son? Your son is dead! I am not your son anymore!"
"I am sorry for the things I did, but, please let me talk with you for a minute. I have things to te-"
"I don't have anything to deal with you or talk with you."
They were the last words Baekhyun said before running away from the place.

Staring at the reflection of his image in the mirror, Chanyeol slowly tied his necktie. Finally, that Wednesday came. The meeting which would decide his future finally came.
If he said that he was not nervous, it would be a lie because he couldn't even concentrate on his necktie right now.
"Don't worry. Everything will be okay."
A pair of arms wrapped his waist from behind and Chanyeol put his hands on the shorter's ones.
"I hope so."
Chanyeol turned around and faced Baekhyun, pulling his chin up and planting a peck on the latter's lips. Baekhyun's eyes widened at the sudden kiss but he did not complain anything.
Baekhyun smiled and cupped Chanyeol's face. Then, tiptoed a little to kiss the taller. Baekhyun used force that Chanyeol even fell back and stuck his back to the mirror when he kissed the taller so hard. Both were carried away with a passionate kiss and Chanyeol hoped that it lasted forever.
It ended with a kiss on Baekhyun's forehead and Chanyeol was now calm enough to tie his necktie.
"You will do well, right?"
Before Chanyeol left, it was what Baekhyun asked. But Chanyeol just replied him with a smile.
Well, he also did not know what would come out as a result.
It was the longest drive from home to the company that he had had in his life. His palms were sweaty and his feet were cold. He could not remember how many times he sighed during the about-15-mins drive. At the company entrance, he saw Mr. Shim waiting for him.
"M. D, the meeting is starting in ten minutes."
Mr. Shim said on the way to the meeting room.
"Mr. Shim."
Chanyeol stopped his steps.
"Will we be able to do it?"
"Of course. I believe you will do well."
Chanyeol smiled. Yes, he must do well, at least for his grandparents and parents, and for Baekhyun. When they entered the meeting room, Mrs. Park was there already and on her left was Mr. Nam while Luhan's mother was on the right.
Nam Joo Hyuk was also there and so did Luhan. Chanyeol wore a straight face and sat on the seat with his name which was face to face with Mrs. Park. Almost all the shareholders were in their places. Chanyeol felt the tic tock from the clock sound so loud.
"We will start the meeting so."
Mr. Shim announced and the shareholders nodded their heads.
"Everyone may know but in case if someone doesn't know, the purpose of this meeting is to reselect the CEO of the company."
Mr. Shim's voice echoed in the silent meeting room. Everyone expected it to happen so no one made a complaint.
"With the declaration that the current CEO, Mrs. Park Yang Li, embezzled the company's fund for her own good, M. D. Park Chanyeol claims to remove Mrs. Park from her title."
"As we know, Mrs. Park holds the 15% of the shares and becomes the CEO of the company because she was the largest shareholder at that time and everyone agreed with it."
"According to the will of the last chairman, Mr. Park Han Soo, M. D. Park Chanyeol has already been given the 30% of the company shares legally on 15th of June, 2016."
"Is there someone who wants to put your shares for CEO Park to remain in her title? And is there someone who wants to put your shares for M. D. Park?"
The silence took place after Mr. Shim's talk. Chanyeol intertwined his sweating fingers under the table but he put his calm face on.
"I put my shares 5% for Mrs. Park."
As expected, Mr. Nam.
Chanyeol thought.
"I put my 3% shares for M. D. Park."
The voice came from the door and they all turned their heads to see who it was. The said man was Mr. Kim, who was a close friend of Mr. Byun and also the one who didn't give a clear answer when Chanyeol negotiated with him.
"I will help you to get your family's company back."
Mr. Byun's words replayed in Chanyeol's mind and when he looked at Mr. Kim, the gentleman gave a small smile.
"I use my 6% of shares for CEO Park."
Another shareholder said out and Chanyeol's mind wasn't in calm state anymore as the two percentages were too close.
"Right now, combined shares percentage for CEO Park is 26% and that of M. D. Park is 33%."
"Sorry for my late appearance."
Chanyeol gasped when he finally saw the person he really put all his mighty mind in. Chanyeol took a quick glance at Mrs. Park's shocking face. Well, he expected this reaction.
"You may not know me, but, instead of my father, Mr. Leroy Morgan, I, Sehun Morgan, make the attendance here. This is the legal document with his allowance that I can use his shares."
Sehun handed the documents to Mr. Shim and after checking them, Mr. Shim gave it to Mrs. Park.
"Mr. Morgan, you can sit here."
Mr. Shim pointed to the seat beside Chanyeol and Sehun took the seat quickly. Chanyeol whispered a thank you but a response was a smirk from the Morgan.
"So, can you announce the current results because I didn't hear it?"
Sehun said while staring straight to Mrs. Park.
"Currently, the combined shares percentage for CEO Park is 26% while that of M. D. Park is 33%."
"I put my father's 5% share to vote for Chanyeol.. ah, I mean, M. D. Park."
"I put my 12% shares for CEO Park."
Not only Chanyeol but also Mr. Shim were shocked when they heard it from Mrs. Lu, the daughter of Mrs. Park and the mother of Luhan.
To be honest, Chanyeol completely forgot her since she wasn't the one who usually interfered in business.
"It is a tie right now," Mr. Shim said.
"I knew that would happen."
Chanyeol heard Sehun mumbling to himself before taking something out from his suitcase.
"Well, excuse me for the disturbance but I forget to tell you that," Sehun smiled and took out another document again. He paused his words for a while and gave it to Mrs. Park directly.
"My father, Mr. Oh, also legally allows me to use his shares."
"Didn't you just say you are the son of Mr. Morgan?"
It was Mr. Nam who asked with shock.
"Yes, my real father is Mr. Oh and Mr. Morgan is the one who adopted me. I am both Oh Sehun and Sehun Morgan."
It was the final stroke.
"So, with the legal allowance of Mr. Oh, I put the 10% of shares for M. D. Park."
"You look the coolest today."
Chanyeol whispered after Sehun had said.
"I am always cooler than you."
Sehun raised an eyebrow and whispered, then his gaze averted to Mrs. Park.
"She has never imagined that I am that rich."
Sehun bitterly said but still wore a smirk on his handsome face.
"I will announce the final result now."
"According to the shareholders' meeting which is held on 9 A.M today, 10th of November, 2016, the shareholders' combined shares for M. D. Park Chanyeol is 51%."
"So, we will inform the board of directors to remove the current CEO, Park Yang Li, from her title in this company and to take legal actions against her embezzlement. We will use the ballot system to choose the new CEO."
"Now, 9:45 A.M, the result is bound to legality by the company's lawyer, Mr. Song. The meeting ends."
Chanyeol sighed and leaned his head on the table when everyone went out of the room. He was too tired right now.
"Don't get too happy."
Sehun said and Chanyeol stood up.
"If not because of your fathers' shares, it is really the end."
"If Han didn't tell me about his mother's shares, I wouldn't have brought Mr. Oh's documents."
"Thank you so much."
"Just don't appear next to Han."
Sehun purposely bumped into Chanyeol's shoulder and went out. Mr. Shim just stood beside him with a smile.
"Didn't I say?"
"Right now, I wanna see Baekhyun so much."
"You will thank me when you get out of this room."
Chanyeol's eyes widened and he quickly got out of the meeting room to see Baekhyun standing in front of the room.
"Chanyeol, congra-"
Chanyeol didn't let him continue his words and pressed his lips with his own ones while pinning him to the wall.
He didn't care anything now.
Because he felt like he owned the world.

TBC.
A/N : ltns! The last part got me into trouble 😂 I have never worked in a company or been in a shareholders' meeting so I made it up. Please forgive if something went wrong.
But please don't skip the last part because I spent almost two hours thinking about the lines.
It's quite late but pretend like it's April 12th and #HappySehunDay
