And so it begins..
_____________________________

8 year old Chanyeol stood frozen looking at a small human in the arms of his mother. "Do you want to hold him" she asked smiling. Her face visually showing the exhaustion from her 9 hour labor.

Chanyeol looked at her for a brief moment before looking at the baby once again. "Come here Channie" she called out petting the side of the bed.

Chanyeol hesitated for a moment before sitting right besides his step mom. With his small fingers he reached out towards his younger brother's closed hands. Taken aback, when his finger were suddenly grabbed by the smaller. "He's so tiny" Chanyeol smiled looking up at his step mom. She smiled back, before looking at her husband, who sat on the other side of the bed.

"What's his name?" Chanyeol asked looking at the the smaller's still closed eyes. "Baekhyun. Park Baekhyun."

"I will protect you forever Baekhyunnie" Chanyeol smiled and kissed Baekhyun's cheek.

***

"Park Chanyeol! What did you do to your brother!" His mom shouted from the kitchen table hearing Baekhyun's cry.

Making her way to the noise only to stop in her track upon seeing her oldest rolling on the floor laughing, while her youngest was dressed in a pumpkin costume crying.

She couldn't help but laugh and coo at the younger's outfit. Chanyeol made his way to the still crying Baekhyun's. "Don't cry Baekhyun-ah you look adorable. The cutest" the now 11 year old Chanyeol said, as he began pepper kissing the smaller's face, which caused the 3 year old to start laughing hysterically.

***
"Hyung!" Baekhyun screamed running towards the front door engulfing the the taller into a tight hug.

Smiling at his younger brother's cuteness he picked up the smaller and spun him around, before placing him down. "Did Baekkie missed his hyung" Chanyeol asked cooing when the smaller quickly pecked him on the lip. "Mmm!" The smaller smile hugging the taller's neck. "I mwissed you hyung."

"I missed you too Baekkie."

"Baek, let your brother get dress then we can all have dinner okay" Mr. Park said picking up the 4 year old in his arms, which caused the younger to whine trying to reach his older brother again. Despite only being 12 years old Chanyeol was almost the same size as his dad. He pinched the smaller's cheeks before nuzzling his noise with his. "Hyung will be back okay Baekhyunnie" Chanyeol smiled as he walked up the stairs.

"Chanyeol is such a great brother isn't" Mrs Park said leaning against the doorway connecting the main entrance to the living room. "He is" Mr. Park smiled as he handed the 4 year old to his wife.

***
"But hyung. What if they don't like me" Baekhyun said with a pout clutching unto his bag. "They will Baekkie. You are the sweetest kid I know" Chanyeol smiled petting the smaller's hand. "But, why can't you come to kindergarten with me" at this point Baekhyun was close to crying, lips quivering. "I can't baby, I'm helping dad with his company today. It's only for 3 hours. And i'll be able to pick you up, and will grab ice cream together. How's that?"

"Promise?" Baekhyun held out his pinky waiting for the taller to intertwined with his. "I promise" the taller said.

***
"Dude can you quit it. You've been checking your phone nonstop, but aren't even unlocking it" 14 year old Sehun said looking at the taller's expression. "Sorry, I'm just checking the time" Chanyeol said looking at his phone one last time before putting it away.

"What for. I didn't know your parents are strict about curfew?" Jongin also responded putting his arm around his boyfriend.

"They're not. But I need to pick my little brother up from school." Chanyeol smiled. Making the duo raise an eyebrow. "I've never thought I would see the day The Park Chanyeol be whipped for someone" Kyungsoo said leaning his body forward. "What do you mean" Chanyeol asked. Laughing Kyungsoo began counting. "You hate sweets and always reject them, but whenever your little brother gives you any sweet you will gladly eat it without any form of disgust on your face." Kyungsoo began counting.

"Ya so, he's my younger brother. I can't just reject it" Chanyeol reason back.

"Let me finish" Kyungsoo interrupted. "You ask us to come over and hang out, but the moment you step foot into your house, you completely ignored us and went straight to play with Baekhyun" Kyungsoo laughed remember Chanyeol's goofy smile when he found his brother sitting on the living room floor.

"I missed my younger brother, is that weird?" Chanyeol asked confused. "Well no, but the moment you saw each other you gave him a kiss. On the lips too, it wasn't just a quick peck, it was a whole 5 second peck" Kyungsoo laughed snuggling back at Jongin's embrace.

"Also. Don't forget how mad you got, when Baekhyun told you some 5 year old girl said she wanted to be his wife," Jongin added.

"Not to mention, you always talk about him. That even the teacher's assume you have a brother complex" Sehun laughed.

"Ya so what. Baekhyunnie is my younger brother, I love him. And promised to always protect him." Chanyeol said looking back at his phone and smiled before standing up from his chair. "I gotta go. See ya" Chanyeol left leaving his friends to look at him dumbfounded at the restaurant.

"When do you think he'll realize" Jongin asked kissing Kyungsoo's cheeks.

"Knowing how dense he is. Probably never" Kyungsoo sighed. "The whole situation is fucked up isn't it" Sehun added.

"Can't really do anything about it. It's life" Kyungsoo looked at where the young boy exited before smiling to himself.

***
"Hyung. Mom said you can't pick me up today" Baekhyun pouted grabbing the taller's hands. "I know I'm sorry Baekkie, but I have a class project at Uni today. Tomorrow i'll pick you and will go grab ice cream okay" Chanyeol promised. Before Chanyeol could turn back around Baekhyun pulled him again. "Hyung, you forgot my goodbye kiss" Baekhyun pouted. Turning around smiling, he gave Baekhyun a goodbye kiss that lasted longer to be called a peck.

"I love you hyung" Baekhyun smiled hugging the taller. "I love you too Baekhyunnie."

"Hurry back" Baekhyun waved.

"I will" Chanyeol waved back before making his way to the car.

***
His breathing fell short hand shaking as he heard the person at the other side of the line spoke.

"Good everning Mr. Park. This is Seoul's Medical Hospital. You're contact info as well as you're grandparents were in Mr. and Mrs. Parks emergency contact. I regret to inform you that there has been a car accident. Your grandparents are present at the hospital as well."

Chanyeol's whole world collapsed. He began running ignoring his friends who was calling out to him.

He hastily drove heart pounding, speeding up in order to get there faster. He couldn't remember how he got there so fast. But he eventually did.

Chanyeol ran to the reception desk as fast as he could. "**** Park and **** Park I'm their son" he said "operation room 4, 5th floor. Sir before you leave" the lady said stopping the taller. "A boy was also admitted here along with your parents" Chanyeol's heart stopped. "B-boy"

"Yes your grandparents have signed all the paper works because he is a minor. But according to Mr. and Mrs. Park, you are also his guardian therefore you need to sign some papers." She handed the file to the taller seeing the name he didn't expect.

Park Baekhyun
05.06.****
Sex: M
Blood type: 0

Head injury.

Car crash. Something hit the back of his head.
Operation C54
(I don't know how hospitals work so umm. Ya).

Chanyeol rushed to the operation room, seeing his step grandma sitting down cry while his step grandpa hugging her back. She turned seeing the taller's pale face. "Chanyeollie" she said and rushed towards he eldest grandchild.

"Wh-what happened" he asked still shock. "When they picked. Baekhyunnie from elementary, a t-truck slid into the other lane" she sobbed hugging him tighter. Chanyeol tried to calm her sobbing grandma with no use, as he himself cried.

***
Baekhyun fell into a comatose stated right after his operation. Chanyeol was by his side through it all. Beakhyun being unconscious missed his own parents funeral who sadly passed away 3 days after their own operation.

Chanyeol cried that night feeling his whole world collapse. His friend who found out what happened tried to visit him. Only to be turned away by the taller. The was the darkest point of his life. He ignored everyone to come close to him. And turned away those who tried to help him. It took him a full month to regain himself and be brought back on his feet. The hope of his younger brother being alive was only only motivation he had to continue living.

***
"Please wake up Baekhyunnie, please I don't want to be alone again" Chanyeol sobbed holding unto the smaller's hand tighter. "Please.." he cried.

He felt a slight movement causing him to look up, seeing his brother's eyes slowly open. "Chanyeol hyung" Baekhyun mumbled. "Baekkie, Baekkie" he stood up and immediately tried to examine the smaller. "H-hyung" Baekhyun said weakly, still in state of shocked Chanyeol immediately called the doctor who began examining him. "Hyung, where are mom and dad?" Baekhyun having the doctor still examining him. "Are they okay?" Baekhyun asked. "I- I.. They" Chanyeol stuttered not finding any words to tell the younger. Luck was on his side, because the doctor had told the younger to take it easy and not to talk to much, being in a 3 month comatose.

Chanyeol sat outside waiting for his grandparents, contemplating how they should tell the younger. A few minutes later his grandparents came running in, after talking to the doctor, seeing them sigh they walked towards their eldest grandchild and greeted him. "Are you okay Yeol?" His grandpa asked patting his back. "Baekhyun asked about mom and dad... and I don't know what to tell him" Chanyeol breathe heavily. Seeing the sad look in their grandparents eyes. "It's okay child, will tell him when he is strong enough." And they did after Baekhyun fully rested. Baekhyun was back to his bright side always smiling, making people laugh. A ball of sunshine.

Then the day came. His grandparents told him to wait outside, knowing how sensitive the taller was everytime he see's the younger upset, he didn't have a choice as his grandma led him to the door. The elderly couple sat down on the side of Baekhyun bed and told him what happened to their parents.

All Chanyeol heard through the close door was sobs after sobs and of the younger blaming himself over in over again. He wanted to burst into the door and hold his younger brother tightly but something was preventing him from opening the door. "BAEKHYUN!!" He heard his grandma scream from the other side of the door. Hearing the elder's scream the doctors came bursting through the door. He was able to take a glimpse of his younger brother laying down on the bed his whole body vibrating. The door fell shut, as the doctors examined the younger.

The next few days was hell for all the Park/ Byun family. Baekhyun didn't spoke whatsoever, he didn't eat, nor did anything, he sat on his bed looking at the white wall across. He has witnessed his brother cry, but he just let the tears fall on its own, as his face remained emotionless. They younger wouldn't even lay down if he wasn't made too by others. He was a living doll. Which broke Chanyeol to no end. Everytime he tried to call his younger brother's name he would only turn his head towards the noise, then turn back to the same white wall.

Through it all Chanyeol remained strong and told stories to the younger, be it their childhood or what he did today. He needed to be a strong older brother he made sure he wouldn't show nothing but happiness to the younger thinking it will eventually rub on the other. He kept his emotions in check. That was until that one night.

Like every day end of the week Chanyeol would sleep at the hospital along side his brother, him on the couch while the younger stayed in the hospital bed. He woke up to shuffling on Baekhyun's bed. "Baekhyun?" He asked still half asleep, he saw the younger get up from his bed in the direction of the window. Sitting up he called the younger again "Baekhyunnie?" he asked once again. The younger began to open the window only to stop when his brother called out to him.

He looked at the taller in the eyes. And for the first time, since he found out about his parents passing, did Baekhyun show emotions besides his soulless eyes. But these emotions was nothing but pain and sadness. "I'm sorry hyung" Baekhyun cried as he began to climb unto the window. Wasting no time he grabbed the smaller just as he was about to jump. He held him close in his arms as the smaller tried to break free. "Please hyung. Let me die. It's my fault! It's my fault they died. If they didn't pick me up they would still be alive!! Please hyung!!" Baekhyun cried, all Chanyeol could do was hug him tighter.

***
Hearing what happened the next day Chanyeol's grandparents became even more worried about their grandchild.

"Chanyeol, I want to ask your permission first because I know how close you are with Baekhyun" his grandma said as he sat him down in the living room couch.

"Ask me what?" He asked curious looking up from his hands. "I'm taking Baekhyun abroad with me and his grandpa, and get him far away from here and his memories until he can fully coupe up with himself. We want to take you too, but with your University and your father's company, its nearly impossible for you to come. You don't have to make a decision now. I'll let you decide. But taking him abroad will improve his health. I don't want to see my grandson try to take his own life again" his grandma sobbed, grabbing his hands to bring in up to her chest hugging it. "Please.."

Chanyeol didn't need a long time to decide, because he knew what was best for Baekhyun. So although it hurt like hell. He knew he had to let the younger go.

***

When the younger finally departed, Chanyeol locked himself in his own apartment with nothing but a bottle of booze. As he cried his eyes out.
***
3 years later ( Baekhyun-16. Chanyeol- 24)

"Mr. Park. Mr. Oh or Mr. Kim are at the lobby."

"Send them up" Chanyeol responded looking up at the paper in his hands.

"Are you excited?" Sehun asked as he sat on the couch of the taller's office. "Excited for what" Jongin asked. "Well this is what you get for being in a 2 month honeymoon with Kyungsoo" Sehun rolled his eyes. "Well excuse me, but my baby needed me" Jongin pouted "don't get mad because your dick isn't getting any action" he countered only to be hit. "You jack ass." Sehun said hitting Jongin some mote who started laughing at the younger's reaction.

"So what exactly is happening?" He asked after catching his breathe. He saw Chanyeol's small smile. "His brother is coming back" Sehun butt in. "His grandparents are planning on spending their life traveling after they helped Baekhyun, because Baek is still minor and is going to school they can't bring him everywhere" Sehun continued. "So he will be with Yeol."

"No wonder he looks so happy" Jongin smile. "Brother conplex at it's finest" Sehun laughed.

"So when is he picking him up?" Jongin asked as he saw the taller stand up, and exit his office. "About now, that's why we are here to help grab his bags. Fuck Yeol wait up" Sehun screamed only realizing that the taller was already inside the elevator. "Damn that boy is fast." Sehun said breathless as the elevator door closed in front of him.

***
Chanyeol was beyond excited as he looked left and right, trying to look for his brother. "He looks like a lost child" Sehun said looking at the tall giant looking around. "More like a giraffe than a child" Jongin continued. "Nah, more like a lost puppy" they heard a third voice startling both of them. The duo froze upon realizing who butt in their conversation. "Hello Hunnie hyung, Nini hyung" the third person smiled. "B-Baekhyun?!?!" They screamed causing the taller to turn around.

The brothers eyes met, one smiling the other with tears in his eyes. Baekhyun walked towards the taller wiping his tear stained cheeks. "I'm back hyung" Baekhyun smiled.

"Puberty did that boy good" Sehun said after being shell shocked. He turned to Jongin who's mouth still hung open. Is that the same squirt!! He thought.

Oh how Chanyeol missed that smile. "Baekkie" he cried. The smaller gently pulled the taller closer until their forehead touched. "I missed you too hyung" Baekhyun smiled as he placed a soft gentle kiss on the taller's lips. Oh how Chanyeol missed that. He closed his eyes savouring every moment until the smaller pulled away. He opened his eyes finally seeing his younger brother up close.

His over all features stayed the same. The same eyes, nose. But every was more defined. Chanyeol's cheeks began to immediately grow red. It was only 3 years, how much did he change Chanyeol mentally freaked.

(Tbh. Baekhyun still looked adorable) 😍

"Hyung?" Baekhyun asked, which snapped the older from his train of thought. "I- I can't believe you're here" Chanyeol stuttered about ready to cry again. "Don't cry hyung. Lets go home" Baekhyun smiled as he held out his hands for the taller to hold. The older grabbed it, walking past the duo who witnessed there whole interaction.

"Can they at least go home before doing that" Jongin complained. "Yahh!! You idiot brothers come back here and help us with the bags" Sehun yelled only completely ignored. "Oh brother, this is going to be a loooong day" Jongin sighed picking up the smaller's luggage.

"Wait up!" Sehun and Jongin complained running towards the duo carrying the smaller's bags.
