A little rushed up boring chapter ahead... I'm really sorry!

Later that evening everyone went home. Jongin took home Sehun and Chanyeol went to Baekhyun's house with Minyoung. The mother-son duo was well aware of Jaehwan's wrath and did not want to stress themselves or Baekhyun more. 

Baekhyun sighed in relief as soon he sat on his couch. "So do you want to talk or go to bed sweetie?" came Minyoung's gentle voice as she stroked his chestnut locks hoping to make him feel comfortable. 

"I want to talk..", he shifted his eyes to the tall CEO, "..about a lot." 

"Alright you boys talk, I'm gonna take a walk in the park." the two men nodded as the lady wore her coat and went out. 

"What did you mean I was the one you were going to marry?" he said and Chanyeol shrugged. 

"You're having my baby and we're comfortable with each other so I thought it would be the best thing to do." Baekhyun slapped his arm. "Comfortable? What in the hell is running in your mind, Park? You cannot get married to someone just because you are comfortable with them, you marry them when you love them. What part of it do you find hard to understand?", the tall one gulped and held the other's arm trying to calm him down but the doctor pulled it away and continued to glare at the other, his chest going up and down in anger. 

The younger glared at the other so hard, "Why would you do that? Why did you stop me from terminating the baby, Park?" he stood up fuming. "So I could stop the rumours about you. You're welcome, by the way." Chanyeol sassed and Baekhyun stilled. 

"Rumours?" Chanyeol nodded and handed his phone to the other. Baekhyun gasped and slapped a palm to his mouth as he read the article about him. With each comment, a tear rolled down his eyes. "Why do they care about me? Can't I be in peace?" tears spilt from his eyes. 

Chanyeol seeing the state of the other, sat beside him and enveloped him in a hug. "Don't worry about anything anymore, it's all gonna be just fine." he stroked his back. Soon the sobs had gone down to sniffles which slowly reduced to soft snores. The raven head chuckled a little before carrying the male to his bedroom. 

Pulling the covers over the other's petite body, his eyes settled on the flat tummy. The tummy where the little jelly bean rested, as he had named it. He shook his hands in front of the other's face to confirm whether he was really asleep. 

Seeing no movement his large palm slowly moved to the flat tummy as a smile crept on his face. "I saved you today so you better love me more when you come out, Jelly bean." he said and smiled more. "Seriously? Jelly bean was all you could come up with?" the tall CEO shuffled away to his mother who stood at the door with a smirk. 

"Why are you back so soon?"

"Well, the park was too loud so I'm back plus it's not your house, Mister." she turned on her heel and left. Chanyeol looked at Baekhyun's calm face before switching off the lights and going down, not forgetting to gently close the door. 

"You can take off that grin from your face, Mom." Chanyeol told as he leaned back on the couch. "I'm just really happy you agreed to marry Baekhyun, sweetie." she uttered with genuine happiness. Then a sigh left her lips. 

"But are you sure about this 'cause I don't want you to hurt Baekhyun."

"Honestly Mom, I don't really know either." He finished with a long sigh. Then his phone rang disrupting the silence of the room. Seeing the caller ID, he gulped a little. The tall CEO had been expecting Kyungsoo to call sooner or later.

"Mom, stay here. I'll be back soon." Chanyeol wore his jacket before heading to the park nearest to the chestnut head's house. He had already texted Kyungsoo the address and all he had to do was wait for the other.

Just as he scrolled through his phone at the park, a little boy came up to him. "You look like my toy." he giggled and lifted his Yoda figurine. A small chuckle left his lips as he ruffled the little boy's head. 

"I look like Yoda?", the boy gave a confident nod with a grin. "Well, I'm way taller than Yoda, you know?", he smirked before standing up. "Then you're a giant Yoda." the boy retorted. The CEO began playing catch with the little boy until someone stood in front of him.

"Park Chanyeol."

"Kyungsoo-ah, hey--" the shorter one pushed the other by his chest as he glared at him. "What the fuck is wrong with you Chanyeol?" the CEO wasted no time and held the other's hand. "Let go of my hand right now!" he struggled against the hard grip but to no avail. 

"Let's go and talk somewhere private, okay? There are kids here, we cannot curse in front of them. Let's just go somewhere else and you can kick my ass as much as you want, Soo." he convinced the other and pulled him to his car. 

But Kyungsoo halted and refused to get in the car once they were away from the place. Yanking his arm back, he stared at Chanyeol in the eyes. "I did not come here to sit and talk with you. Why would I want to talk with you after what you did today, Chanyeol?" he took a breath before continuing, face red from anger; "I hope you and your dad regret letting me go every day and I hope you rot in fucking hell. You led me on, you even confirmed it the night before, how can you play so low with me?". 

This time angry tears slipped from his eyes. Chanyeol was speechless. "Let me explain, Soo!" he tried but the other rolled his eyes at him. "I don't need your goddamn explanations, Park. Don't ever contact me again, I mean it! This is our final meeting and even if there comes a time in future where we face each other, act like you do not know me!" he spitted out the words in pure anger before turning on his heel and leaving.

The tall raven head stood there mouth agape as he stared at the other's retreating figure. "I'm sorry, Soo." he mumbled to himself before getting in his car. Fastening the seat belt, his thoughts drifted to Baekhyun. 

'This is all your fault..', he clenched his fists and drove back to the doctor's house holding in his anger.

Sehun gained back his senses later that night. Jongin who was with him had been binge-watching The Avengers as he waited for his friend to wake up. The CEO came in holding his head, whining at the acute pain.

The dancer rolled his eyes before fetching him a glass of water to swallow the aspirin. "What got you wasted in the afternoon, dude?", he playfully punched his shoulder and Sehun snickered at him only to earn a smack on his head. 

"My head already hurts like a bitch, why did you hit me?", the brunet whined rubbing the spot where it hurt. "You should be thankful, you jerk." Sehun raised a questioning brow at his friend. "Don't tell me you do not remember anything!" Jongin grimaced at his friend. 

"Why? What did I do?" Sehun grimaced back at him. "You caused a huge scene at a hospital, you idiot! Chanyeol and I had to drag you out when you passed out!" but the other still could not remember anything. 

"What do you mean?" he scratched his nape as he said to Jongin, "Why and when did I go to the hospital, we were at the bar, you amnesic!" he retorted. The dancer sighed at his friend, "I'm not amnesic, you were wasted as fuck and made me drive to the hospital!"

"Do I have a reason to go there? Does it make any sense?" Sehun defended himself yet again.

"I was wondering the same and turns out you just wanted to meet Baekhyun." Jongin smirked at his confused friend. Sehun snickered at the other rolling his eyes. "Stop fooling around." he poked his tongue out completely disregarding his friend's story. 

"You cried on Baekhyun's shoulder asking why." the dancer uttered and Sehun choked on the water as his eyes went wide. "I did what?" he said to his friend who was busy snickering at him. "I said you made me drive to the hospital to see Baekhyun and cried on his shoulder until you passed out." Jongin's smirk grew bigger. 

Sehun froze and fell down with a dismayed look on his face. Memories slowly started coming in, flashes of more and more glasses of drinks, Baekhyun, crying, everything, one by one. "Holy shit! Remind me to never drink again." he uttered in complete shock and the dancer sighed. 

"But why were you drinking? You never told me the reason." the dancer said to his friend who looked a little better and felt much better. "Something happened at the lunch." Sehun uttered scratching his head, the memories a little fuzzy. "Meeting with Kyungsoo's family?" said Jongin and the other soon clearly remembered everything. 

"Chanyeol is marrying Baekhyun", the brunet stood up infuriating, "That fucking asshole, I'm going to end him tonight!" Jongin held the other's arm. "What do you mean he's marrying Baek?" the brunet looked at the dancer. "He's marrying Baekhyun not Kyungsoo." at that Jongin began fuming.

He followed Sehun to the car, and the two were on the road to Chanyeol's house. But seeing the other's car was not at the driveway, the two guessed that he might be with Baekhyun and their guess was not wrong. 

Sehun began ringing the bell incessantly while Jongin called for Chanyeol. Hearing them, the tall raven head rushed to the door. As soon as he did, Sehun pushed him to the wall by his collar. "How can you marry Baekhyun, you asshole? You don't even like him." he cried out and Jongin came closer. 

"What about Kyungsoo? Why did you lead him on? Why do you play with people's feelings this way Chanyeol?" the dancer said to his friend. "Do you not love him? Aren't you happy that I'm not marrying Kyungsoo?" he retorted and Jongin became silent followed by Sehun who cast him a pitiful glance. 

"I do love him, so what? Isn't love all about putting the other person first? So if you marrying him would make him happy, I'm alright with it.", no later he held pushed him back to the wall, "But you playing with his heart is something I can never forgive, Park Chanyeol!"

"I'm not playing with anyone's heart here!" he defended himself but the duo only snickered at him. "Why did you say you were gonna marry Baek? You know I like him!" Sehun said and the CEO could only look down. 

"Take your fight outside, I don't want you boys waking up Hyunnie!" Minyoung cried out in a small voice and the trio nodded. But the pregnant one was already awake from the loud commotions. 

Scratching his head, he descended the stairs with a puffy face. "Did they wake you up, sweetie?" Minyoung said with a gentle voice. Baekhyun knitted his brows, "I'm not sure if it was them but the bell kind of woke me up." everyone except the doctor turned to glare at Sehun who moved back into the couch looking away. 

"Who came? They seemed a little impatient." the others shrugged it off saying it was no one while Sehun put his head on his lap. "Shall we have dinner now?" the lady said and everyone nodded as happy as a little child. 

Baekhyun savoured every bite of Minyoung's chicken. He almost moaned in delight as soon as the food touched his taste buds. "Is it that good?" the lady said and the male quickly nodded with a huge grin on his face. 

"Something I can finally eat without having to puke." he cheered as he proceeded to finish his meal. "You're so cute." Sehun and Chanyeol simultaneously cooed eyeing the sauce messily smeared at the corner of his lips. 

Baekhyun cleaned his mouth a little but there was still a little left in the corner. Sehun and Chanyeol both leaned in with the napkin. A thick silence fell on the table as the duo stared at each other, silently cursing at the other in their heads. "All clean now." they heard Jongin say. While they fought, the dancer had already helped the doctor and the two CEOs sat back on their seats and cleared their throats trying to clear the awkwardness. 

Minyoung chuckled at their behaviour. "I'll cook only for you, Baek, starting today. You're the only one who compliments my cooking." she said while glancing at her son who narrowed his brows. "I don't compliment your food?"

"You criticize my cooking not compliment it, you giant! There's a huge difference between those two." she glared at him and the other sat down looking away and poked out his tongue. "Hyun?" the male nodded at the lady.

"We need to contact your parents, you know? Invite them to the wedding and everything." Minyoung said and failed to catch the dejected look on the other's face. "Mom, let's talk about that later. Can we eat in silence now?" Minyoung nodded and the doctor flashed a grateful smile at the elder. No one knew about his parents except for Sehun and Chanyeol. 

As they placed their dishes in the sink, Chanyeol's phone rang loudly interrupting the silent atmosphere of the house. But the moment he saw the ID, he tossed his phone on the counter with widened eyes. "Some undead creature calling you?" Sehun mocked him. "It's someone worse than that." he replied. 

Minyoung understood who her son was talking about and took it in her hands. It was indeed none other than Jaehwan. She answered the call and put it on speaker.

"Hey, honey."

'Took you long enough!'

"Sorry, I--"

'Where is Chanyeol? I need to talk with him.'

Chanyeol shook his hands in front of him. 

"He's asleep with Baekhyun."

'Don't', he took a breath, 'Don't ever say that name, lady!'

"But he's going to be your son-in-law whether you like it or not, so suck it up, Mister!"

'Whatever. You two better be here tomorrow or I'll be sending my men down there, got it?'

Minyoung scoffed at the threats. "Yes, honey. Good night!"

Without waiting for a reply she ended the call. "You're screwed, Chanyeol." the dancer said and Chanyeol gave a sarcastic laugh. 

_________

"Wow!", the brunet and the others watched in amusement as Baekhyun pulled out a block from a tough spot, "Doctors have really steady hands!" The doctor thanked him for the compliment. When it was Minyoung's turn, they all hurrayed as the blocks came falling. 

All except for one person. "What's with you and that sour face?" the dancer said to Chanyeol who glared at him. His eyes filled with hatred and anger were focused on only one person, Byun Baekhyun. 

A couple of hours later, and a few rounds of games later, the occupants finally decided to go to bed when they saw Baekhyun's eyes drooping involuntarily. "We'll head back then." the dancer said and the brunet pouted. 

"We're leaving?" Jongin forced out a smile at his friend. "Yes, we're leaving. You have your house to go to and I have mine, remember?" Sehun whined but nonetheless agreed to leave. While Minyoung was sending them off, Chanyeol looked at Baekhyun who was already asleep on the couch.  

His mind said no but his heart was not ready to listen. The tall one slowly hooked an arm around the boy's neck and under his thighs, slowly carrying him to the bedroom. "Oh my God! This is so adorable!" same an extremely cheerful voice followed by a clicking sound as Minyoung snapped a picture. 

"Seriously Mom?" she shrugged him off and went upstairs before him to hold open the door. "You two sleep here, I'll take the guestroom." Minyoung said and Chanyeol was quick to object. "Same room with him?" the lady scoffed. 

"In case you forgot Mister, you two did more than just sleep on the same bed and I hope you know that the baby is the living proof of it" she punctuated every word to make sure she was loud and clear. "Now do you have a problem?" the CEO shook his head feeling defeated. 

"If you even think about taking the couch or something!" Chanyeol shook his head. "Good night Mom!"

"Good night to you too! Sleep well, we need all the energy."

Chanyeol looked a little confused. "We will be facing your dad tomorrow, Yeol." Reality hit him hard, "Well time to prepare for my funeral." he mentally said before nodding at his mother and going into Baekhyun's room. 

"I'll find out why you did this Byun Baekhyun. Just because I was nice does not mean I'll let you walk away with this." he thought before laying next to the pregnant male with a bolster between them. 

Then came the morning. The warm sun rays made Baekhyun squint his eyes as shuffle closer to the stiff yet soft surface and the pleasant scent. He unconsciously put his nose on the other's neck and sniffed softly. 

This action caused the other to stir. Chanyeol slowly opened his eyes as the chestnut locks tickled his skin. The bolster was long forgotten on the ground and Chanyeol and Baekhyun were in the middle of the bed cuddling each other. "What are you doing, Byun?" the elder sat up abruptly causing the other to sit up too. 

Chanyeol took a minute to drink in the other's appearance- fluffy cheeks, messy bed hair, puffy eyes, he was simply adorable. But he snapped himself out of those thoughts. "What are you doing here? On my bed?"

"Mom made me sleep here since you don't have an extra bedroom." the pregnant male nodded and scratched his head. Chanyeol got off the bed while Baekhyun dashed to the bathroom cupping his mouth. 

No later, loud retching sounds filled the room. The CEO thought hard before making up his mind. Chanyeol knelt behind the younger and rubbed his back up and down to soothe him as he loudly puked his guts out. When he was finally done, he leaned on the nearest wall catching his breath while the other fetched him a glass of water. 

With a hoarse thank you, he gargled the water and spit it out before getting up and washing up. Chanyeol felt a little pity for the other seeing what he will have to endure for the next nine months. Just then Minyoung showed up with a glass in her hand. 

"Tell him to drink this, it will make his throat feel better." she instructed and left the room as Chanyeol nodded. Putting a sticky note on the glass, he went to his mother downstairs. "Mom?" the lady hummed and looked at her son who looked a little gloomy.

"What have I done?" he looked... guilty. "What do you mean?"

"Will he have to suffer so much for nine months? Is it not like some form of punishment?" Minyoung chuckled. "You guys should have waited but let me tell you, this is the most beautiful thing in life. Everything would feel like shit but it's all worth it, baby. And I'm pretty sure Baekhyun would love this too. Things would be a little hard at times but nothing could compare to the time you hold your child."

Chanyeol nodded a little and let his mother embrace him. Soon breakfast was over and the trio was mentally preparing themselves to face Jaehwan. Chanyeol and Baekhyun knew very well they had to face the music and they were ready.
