Baekhyun lost track of how long he had been crying that night. But he had no other choice since it was something he had agreed on already.

Dragging himself by his feet, he walked into the bathroom to wash up and changed into his pyjamas which Minyoung had bought for him. A pastel green satin piece that felt extremely soft against his smooth skin and lulled him to sleep.

Turning to his side, he pulled up the covers to his head. 'Everything will be alright, Baek. Hold on,' he murmured to himself as he slowly drifted off to dreamland as his hands wrapped themselves around his torso.

Meanwhile, Chanyeol's eyes scanned around the loud room and finally fell on the doctor who he had come to meet. "Hey, Soo," he pecked his lips, the other shamelessly kissing back. But Chanyeol deep down felt nothing like what he felt when Baekhyun and he kissed.

"I didn't think you would actually come," and the taller laughed. "Why wouldn't I, after you called me?" Kyungsoo smiled at the other. He fumbled his bag before pulling out the documents he had showed the other on the night of the rehearsal wedding.

"You take it everywhere you go?" Chanyeol laughed and the other pouted. "Just sign them and get your husband to sign them too," he sighed before continuing, "it'll put my heart at ease. I can be assured that you will come back to me, Yeol."

He stroked his cheeks and traced his dimple staring into his eyes. Chanyeol put his bigger palm on the other's, "Don't think anything, I'll always be yours," he assured him but Chanyeol himself could hear no sincerity in that.

Without reading through the document, he grabbed his pen and signed the documents. "I'll give this to Baekhyun too then you will feel at ease, right?" The owl-eyed male nodded with a soft smile on his heart-shaped lips.

Then they talked and danced for a little while before the CEO decided to head home. As soon as he began walking back home, Kyungsoo dialled Luhan's number.

"How did it go?" the Chinese male questioned, "Did he sign it?"

"Yes, he did. He did not even read through."

"Well, that's a good thing. Let's meet at my cafe tomorrow, I can't talk much right now," there was a short pause before he continued, "Sehun's here and we cannot risk anything."

Kyungsoo replied in the affirmative before hanging up.

The next morning, as promised the two met. "If Yeol divorces Baekhyun, wouldn't it be a good opportunity for Sehun to get to him?"

"Oh no, I have someone else who's more than ready to have Byun and it's not Sehun." With a smirk, he uttered out and sipped on his latte.

"What do you mean?"

"Wu Yifan," Luhan gave a cunning smile, "ring a bell?" He put down his glass before looking at Kyungsoo, "I don't know if he loves him or something but he would love anything or anyone that belongs to Park Chanyeol."

"So Sehun would not get him either? But what if he gets him somehow before Kris?"

"Kris is someone who would never let go of anything if he has his eyes set on it, especially if it's Park's."

Luhan nodded with a cheeky smile and the other mirrored it. They went on discussing more until the doctor's phone rang loudly interrupting them.

"Baekhyun keeps calling me to ask if his suspension has been lifted." He groaned in his palm. "Tell him to come back to work then," Kyungsoo stared at the other confused.

"Before you cuss me out," Luhan took a sip from his glass, "Jaehwan is holding back since the baby is an heir to the company. But," he took a breath, "if something happens to the baby, Baek has no leverage there."

"I still do not get it."

Luhan facepalmed at that, "Can you not give him more shifts or something like that?" Thus went the light bulb in Kyungsoo's head.

"How do you know so much about the Parks?"

"Forgot who has been Chanyeol's longest friend?" Kyungsoo made an 'oh' with his lips before nodding.

"So I'm gonna get to the hospital and talk to the board for them to let him come back." the barista nodded and waved as the owl-eyed male walked out the door.

Chanyeol sneaked back in with his steps as quiet as a cat's and quickly changed before sneaking in bed with Baekhyun who had his back to him. It was almost three in the morning and he mentally groaned realizing that he will have only four hours of proper sleep.

Not minding it, he turned to his side that their backs were facing and slowly fell asleep. When Baekhyun was sure that his husband had definitely fallen asleep, he sneaked out of bed to the balcony.

The chill wind forced him to hug himself as he stared at the stillness of the night where he could only hear the loud crickets and the soft breeze blowing past him. Unconsciously tears began to flow down his eyes though he kept wiping them away.

"Am I that naive that people mess with me so easily and fool me?" he mumbled, his sight blurred by his tears. He stared at the moon that gloriously shone in the night sky surrounded by the twinkling bodies. As he stares at the scenery, his stomach loudly grumbles.

His palm slowly stroke his torso, "I'm gonna become a whale at this rate." he mumbles remembering how much he had eaten at the reception before going in and quietly making his way downstairs to the kitchen. He peeked his head around seeing if no one else was there with him.

When he was sure that there was no one else, he slowly opened the refrigerator but it had nothing that he wanted to eat, not even ice cream, he sobbed in his head. "What are you doing here?" he paled and slowly turned around to meet with the round stern eyes which glared at him.

"Why are you awake?"

"I asked you first."

"I could care less about that now tell me," he walks towards his husband, "why are you still awake?"

"I could not sleep so I came to get some water," this time Chanyeol went closer, "now your turn."

Baekhyun tried backing away only to be trapped with the refrigerator. "I answered you now you."

The petite male was just a little shy and did not want to admit that he was still hungry. Chanyeol tilted his head and the other gulped at how handsome his husband looked. He was an asshole, but he could not help but admit that his asshole of a husband was certainly handsome and hot.

"Why are you drooling, Baek?" came his voice pulling him to reality as he quickly wiped at his mouth. "I was hungry," he pouted looking at his fingers, "but there was no tteokbokki or ice cream in here."

"It's almost 4, Baek," the taller moved away to lean on the counter, "There would be no supermarkets open nearby at this time." Baekhyun's pout never left his lips while his eyes began to water. The elder seeing that panicked and bent so he was on the same level as him and held his shoulder and lifted his face to look at him. "Woah, Baek please don't cry. Let's just go to bed for today and I'll make sure to fill the fridge tomorrow, okay?"

"But I'm still hungry." he pouted and stroked his pudgy tummy. "How 'bout I give you some cookies and milk," he said looking at the cookie jar on the counter, "and we go to bed?" Baekhyun shook his head as the tears slowly fell down his eyes.

"Should I make some for you then?" the sentence brought instant happiness to the other as he wiped his eyes and nodded his head like a little child. The CEO sighed, well there goes my sleep, before walking over to get the ingredients from the shelves.

"Can I help you?" Chanyeol shook his head and dragged him to the table and made him sit. "If you move an inch, I'll stop making it and head to bed," the other looked at him with a pout, "Understood?" The doctor nodded his head and sat there like a little puppy waiting for a chunk of meat.

Fifteen minutes later, Chanyeol was done making it and served it to the younger who cheered. "You are the best husband!" he said and the aura instantly became uneasy for the two as they fell silent.

"Uhm," the petite male dragged, "would you like some too?" The CEO shook his head before sitting beside the younger with his bottle of water. He sat there fighting sleep while Baekhyun messily (and happily) munched on the delicious night snack.

When he could not keep his eyes open any longer, Chanyeol succumbed to sleep as he put his head on his arm and slipped to dreamland. Baekhyun looked at the back of his husband's head as he took the last bite off his bowl.

He washed the bowl and put it in the rack before walking over to his husband at the table. Baekhyun sat facing him and laid his head on the table and stared at his husband's facial features. "Chanyeolie," he whispered as quiet as he possibly could, "I can fall in love with you, right? You would not completely throw me away, right?"

Baekhyun slowly wiped away the few drops of tears and stared at his husband till he too fell asleep at the table. Chanyeol woke up somewhere around 6 at the dawn since his arm began to hurt from the position he was at.

He rubbed his eyes and shook his head before looking around. His round brown orbs fell on the petite male beside him. One arm folded under his head and the other at his abdomen as soft snores left his pouty lips. Chanyeol unconsciously smiled before slowly stroking his head.

Trying not to wake the other, he carried him upstairs to their bedroom. Baekhyun stirred as the elder placed him on the bed but the elder shushed him again. Call him creepy but he could not help but adorably smile at the other who was whining in his sleep. Figuring that he would not be sleeping again, he put on his tracksuit and headed out for a jog.

"Where are you coming from?" Minyoung said as her son walked through the front door. "Is it not obvious, Mom?" he pointed at his clothes and the lady chuckled. "Did you take Baekhyun too?"

"Baekhyun? Why would I want to do that?" he instantly regretted saying what he said when he saw his mom's glare towards him. "'Cause, it's good for him and the little one." At this Chanyeol began laughing.

"He cannot even walk a little distance and becomes exhausted easily. If I actually asked him to jog, we wouldn't have been able to cross even two houses."

Minyoung glared but chuckled at her son's remark. "Chanyeol-ah?" he stopped at his father's words and turned to look at the head of the family. "I'm giving you a few days off for a week since you just got married."

The raven head just stared at his father. "What? Your mom talked me into it, don't misunderstand it." Chanyeol thanked his parents before jogging upstairs. Baekhyun was stirring a little while he went to the closet to change.

As he was changing, he heard the bathroom door slam and was soon behind his husband who puked his guts out. When he was finally done, Chanyeol helped him clean up before helping him on the bed. "You took a day off?" He said seeing the clock. The CEO shook his head, "Dad gave me a week off, how cool is that!"

Baekhyun tiredly smiled and cuddled his pillow close to him. "Yeol?" the elder poked his head out from the bathroom with the brush in his mouth and nodded. "Did you get me to bed last night?" the elder nodded and Baekhyun smiled and thanked him while his heart beat erratically and butterflies fluttered in his tummy.

"I'm sorry I disturbed you last night." he said. "It's alright, I could not sleep anyway," Chanyeol replied loudly as he stepped in the shower. "Did you two have a rendezvous last night, you sneaky kids?" Minyoung's voice chirped and Baekhyun sat upright.

"Ah, no. I said I was hungry and Chanyeol made me some tteokbokki." said the petite doctor and Minyoung pinched his cheeks. "Look at you blushing," she patted his cheeks, "My son-in-law is too cute."

"You look sleepy but I don't want you messing up your schedule, honey." Baekhyun pouted but nodded and followed the lady downstairs where the pleasant aroma of food welcomed him. "So the little guy approves of this?" she said and the doctor nodded his head and smiled his eyes turning to crescents.

"Little guy? I want a little lady though," said Chanyeol as he walked down in a casual tee and sweats. "I want a grandson."

"I want a daughter though." the mother and son debated until the CEO came up with a solution.

"How about twins then?" Baekhyun choked on the sausage and the lady quickly gave him a glass of orange juice. "What do you mean twins? Do you plan on dying young?" the petite male glared at his husband who quickly shut up.

"Sorry, mood swings." Chanyeol gave a nervous laugh before digging into his breakfast.

"Since he has a week off, why don't you guys go out? You won't be able to enjoy a lot later on." Minyoung said and Baekhyun nodded with a smile. "How 'bout the amusement park?" Chanyeol nodded sipping on the orange juice.

Just then Baekhyun's phone rang. He stood up a few seconds into the call. Chanyeol and Minyoung stared at him while the eldest paid no attention. As soon as the call ended, he hugged Chanyeol who stared into nothing particular.

"I got my job back, Yeol. Oh my God!" the other congratulated him and hugged back. When the doctor sat back on his seat, "Luhan called you back to work?" Baekhyun shook his head. "They called me back to the hospital, Mom," he said with a grin.

"I don't want you going to the hospital though," she looked at the younger with eyes filled with concern, "what if you catch something? And won't it tire you out too much?"

"Mom, let him do what he loves. You said it yourself he won't be able to do much later."

Minyoung nodded and turned to her son, "Then you drop him and pick him up, no excuses Park Chanyeol."

"Is he some kid, can't he take the bus or taxi?" Minyoung sneered at her husband and hit him on the head with her spoon before telling him to shut up. "Agreed, Yeol?"

Chanyeol gave a reluctant nod and Baekhyun too smiled with Minyoung. "You too start next week then?" the younger replied in the affirmative and the four ate in peace.
