18 | From a Safe Distance
"Oi, Jongin! Sehun!"
Both males turned to look at Jongdae, who was jogging their way.
Jongdae figured he might as well start putting his plan into action, it might take a while for Wu to get his answer so why wait?
"Can you guys do me a favor?"
"What kind?" Jongin raised an amused brow at the oldest.
"So you know Baekhyun and Chanyeol, right? Well, I was planning on giving them a push, to make them realize~"
"So what? You want me and Sehun to push them or something?" Jongin tilted his head in a confused manner.
"No dumbass, he means get them in a situation to get them to make-out or something." Sehun pinched Jongin's arm, the older hissed back at him and inched away.
"Not necessarily but I think you get it." Jongdae shrugged.
"We're in, just what exactly do you plan on doing?"
"I don't know, maybe get Baekhyun to trip on top of Chanyeol or something?"
"Oh! How about we trap them in a room together?" Jongin suggested enthusiastically.
"That's boring, they'll probably get on their phones or something–" Sehun rolled his eyes, crossing his arms and shaking his head.
"Well what do you suggest then, genius?"
Sehun scoffed, "Well of course we should push their heads together so they kiss already..."
"That's too bold tho." Jongdae sighed. "I don't see the problem tho–" The youngest added with a smirk.
Jongdae groaned and walked away from the two. "I'll give it some thought, for the mean time, watch their actions attentively. We need the perfect time and situation."
"Ay, ay caption." Jongin waved. When Jongdae was a good distance away, they continued talking about what game they would play tonight.
Jongdae simply shook his head and turned the corner.

Those three weren't the only one keeping a close eye on Chanyeol and Baekhyun.
Kris watched from a distance as said males laughed at some stupid joke Chanyeol made. He kept a close eye on the two whenever he could. Taking note of every little touch they shared, even if it was the smallest thing like their fingers brushing whenever Baekhyun gave Chanyeol one of his pens because he 'supposedly' lost his. The guy had a whole ass collection of pens sitting right on his desk, he might've been fooling Baekhyun with it but he wasn't fooling Kris.
The group: Jongdae, Kris, Jongin and Sehun started sitting together for lunch from then one. To share what they've gathered so far from the lovebirds.
Sure, it may have sounded creepy if you look at it from another angle, but they were full of Baekhyun making a fuss whenever the word 'love' was put in the same sentence with the name 'Chanyeol' and him being in it. You could give it to him with the excuse that he had never been in love before so he wouldn't know how it works but come on, even a dumbass would've figured out that they were in love by now.
"Baekhyun never sits with me anymore! He always sits with that over grown child for lunch... Oh well, at least I don't need to hear about how he was unsatisfied with his 99% result on his math test." Sehun whined childishly while picking at the food in front of him, not noticing that the attention was fully on him at the situation.
"Well thanks to that, we at least have some free time to gather what we've noticed so far from them... Did you even take note of anything, Sehun?" Kris crossed his arms.
"It's not my fault they don't start kissing each other out of no where whenever I'm staring at them!" The youngest stuck his tongue out then looked away from Kris's gaze.
Jongdae sighed, "I guess we can't exactly force it... We'll just have to wait for Baekhyun's clumsy ass to trip over something while Chanyeol's around to do something..."
The table curtly nodded and watched as Jongin arrived with his boyfriend, Kyungsoo following behind him.
Oh, and Kyungsoo sometimes joined them for lunch but he was never one to talk too much so he only spoke with Jongin, lecturing him on how he should eat healthy or how he should study harder so they could go to university together some day.
It was somewhat amusing to watch the couple, but at the same time it was annoying. Seeing them being all lovey dovey and all.
From the corner of his eye, Jongdae saw the two lovebirds exit the cafeteria together. He also caught Luhan staring at their table for a short while from across the room, but he quickly looked away when their eyes met tho.

Baekhyun followed Chanyeol out of the cafeteria giggling to himself when the giant almost dropped his tray on the ground when he saw a spider near someone's seat.
Chanyeol quietly stormed out of that place as fast as he could.
"Yeol~ I'm gonna get a spider from my basement and sneak it in your locker! Watch out! There's a spider behind you!" Baekhyun dramatically pointed at the wall behind Chanyeol, who jumped and picked up his pace. The shorter laughed and tried catching up with his short legs not long after.
"Hey wait up, long legs!"
"Where?! Isn't that one of those spiders?!"
Baekhyun shrugged, "If you wanna cosider yourself a spider from now on then sure, Mr. Spider." The older giggled up at Chanyeol who was glaring down at him, Baekhyun looked down at the other's hands that were shaking while holding on to his tray.
"Calm down, Yeol, I was just kidding~" The shorter grinned and pushed open the doors to the roof.
Both of them quietly sat down next to each other and began eating.
Baekhyun recalled back to the haunted house they visited a while ago and how Chanyeol didn't seem all that scared but when it came to a small tiny spider, it was basically a monster that was gonna poison him in his sleep.
"Hey, how come you weren't a big baby when we were at that haunted place?"
Chanyeol frowned at the remark but chose to ignore it and opened his mouth to answer the other's question with a smirk plastered on his face.
"I didn't want to seem like a scaredy-cat like that Tao guy in there so I had to keep my cool. It was damn hard to tho." Chanyeol cleaned off the invisible dust off his shoulders, looking down at an unamused latter. "What?"
"Nothing. You did a good job keeping your cool in there, I honestly thought you just weren't scared that easily, I was proven otherwise today tho~"
"Spiders are a different story..." He mumbled while stubbornly picking at his food.
"I don't see how, they're so tiny. They're probably more afraid of you than you are of– Wait actually, I don't think the spider would run and hide if it saw your building looking self... Nevermind what I said! You're definitely more scared of them than they are of you!" Baekhyun offered him a smile to which the taller responded with a groan.
"Gee, thanks for the inspirational words, Byun. Is this all you're gonna talk about for now on or what?" Chanyeol rolled his eyes. "Hmm... Probably! Until I find something else to tease you about that is–"
If you want to play this game, then so can I.
"Well, don't think I don't know about your little cr–" Chanyeol stopped himself in time before he spit out something he would regret in the future.
Did he really want Baekhyun to know he knew about his feelings towards him? Probably not. He'd probably hate it.
Baekhyun raised an eyebrow, "About what?" The playful tone was gone, he sound curious and slightly worried, scared.
Shit, think fast–
"Uh... About that time... you cross-dressed for a competition!"
Baekhyun eyes widened. "H-How do you know about.. that.."
Chanyeol simply shrugged and smirked, knowing fully well he now had the upper hand. "Your little friend Yixing told me you wore and wig and everything, he also said someone named Junmyeon was with you too? He was in a long red dress with a wig and you were in an uniform?"
"S-Shut up! I actually didn't look that bad, you know..." Baekhyun mumbled that last part, hoping it was inaudible for Chanyeol but unfortunately it was.
"I never said you didn't look good with a wig on. You actually looked pretty cute..." He paused, "I prefer you with it off tho–"
Baekhyun turned his gaze to meet with Chanyeol's. The latter's eyes were wider than wide. They stared at each other for a while, Chanyeol ever so slowly inched closer to the other who was still shocked from what he heard to realise what was actually going on.
Chanyeol was about to close the distance between their lips when the faint sound of their school's bell went off, signaling them that lunch was over and for them to return to class.
The taller immediately scooted away and got up, picking up his long forgotten tray which was sitting beside him, almost untouched.
Baekhyun blinked a few times, still processing what just happened.
If the bell hadn't rang would he have come any closer?
Would he have just teased me by getting so close then backed away just in time?
"Aren't... You going to get up? We'll be late to class at this rate if you keep sitting around staring at me. I know I'm handsome but please, we have to return these." He signaled at the tray in his hand. Baekhyun merely nodded quietly and railed on behind Chanyeol out of the roof.
When the coast was clear, Kris sighed loudly. He was so thankful that the two were blind (by love) and didn't notice him hiding behind the roof top's door. Jongdae told him to follow them to see what they would do and holy shit. That was the last thing he expected. "Did Park almost kiss Byun just now or am I going crazy?" He shook it off and shuffled back to Jongdae with his report.
