Baekhyun walked with a blinding joy to the subway station. He was so happy. Insanely happy.

He was going to see him. He was going to actually meet him.

"Somebody pinch me," Baekhyun whispered to himself as he jumped inside the train. He sighed and glanced around the train, seeking a seat as the train started to move.

There wasn't that many available spaces left, but he did notice one towards the back next to a window. The only thing was, it was seated directly next to someone dressed head to toe in all black. They even wore a black cap that was shaded over their face as if sleeping —- or just merely blocking out the world.

Baekhyun sighed again, not seeing any other way around it because he was for sure not going to stand on his feet the whole damn time. He'd sooner sit besides Mr. Emo before he did that.

Baekhyun internally groaned and trudged his way towards Mr. Emo. He peeked at him from his peripheral vision as he tenuously took his seat. Mr. Emo stirred only slightly before crossing his arms and angling away.

"Strange. Why didn't he comment?" Baekhyun mumbled.

It was strange, and not seeing @pcy_ in his comments hurt —- and he hasn't even met the guy yet.

Baekhyun sighed, a small noise that stirred the one beside him. With a sorta half-moan, half-groan kinda thing Mr. Emo brought his hand up to his black Nike hat and shoved it up, exposing just a sliver of his features.

And hot damn, was he gorgeous.

Baekhyun gulped and quickly snapped his head the other way, nervously gnawing on the inside of his cheek as he focused his thoughts. It was hard though, especially when he felt the beautiful stranger's eyes boarding into him.

Baekhyun squeezed his eyes shut and silently thought, Byun Baekhyun, if you even look at him there will be consequences. Baekhyun exhaled another shaky breath and silently followed his inner selves threat. That is, until a voice so deep and alluring spoke, the delicious sound pulling at Baekhyun's navel and causing his breath to hitch once again.

"Hey, I'm talking to you," the stranger spoke.
He even reached out to poke Baekhyun's cheek!

Baekhyun was pretty sure his heart exploded in that precise moment.

Breathing uneven, he peered sideways to glance at the beautiful stranger as he weakly murmured,
"Y–yes?"

The stranger smiled. Shit! His dimple! Baekhyun thought.

"Um, h–hi," Baekhyun stuttered.

"Are you shy?" the stranger asked with that damn dimple.

Baekhyun nodded weakly and softly squeaked, "Like a turtle."

The stranger suddenly laughed, and after a moment of wiping away the tears he responded, "Oh my gosh, that was adorable!" And as soon as he said that, his expression shifted and his dimple faded away. He cleared his throat. "Excuse me. Um, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said that . . ."

Baekhyun couldn't help his curiosity as he asked, "How come?"

"Because I'm on my way to see someone, and saying that felt like a betrayal to them," he muttered.

"Oh," Baekhyun mumbled. "And hey, this is embarrassing, but I'm going to say it anyways.... I'm on my way to see someone too, and when you removed your hat, I betrayed my feelings towards them because . . ."

Mr. Beautiful eyed Baekhyun expectantly and asked, "Because . . .?"

Baekhyun cringed and furiously shook his head as he hurriedly said, "No, I can't say!" Then he slapped his hand over his mouth and cried in a muffled voice, "I will not tell you, stranger!"

Mr. Beautiful Stranger laughed and readjusted his hat over his strangely endearing ears that stuck out only slightly as he said, "Alright, don't tell me then. It doesn't really matter . . ." He trailed off as he pulled his hat back over his face, a gesture that suddenly made Baekhyun very angry as, unthinkingly, his hand snapped out and ripped it off his head.

Mr. Beautiful Stranger's eyes widened and his eyes snapped Baekhyun's way as he cried, "What the hell!? Give that back, small fry!"

Baekhyun bristled and jumped to his feet as he childishly cried, "Make me!"

By this point, everyone on their train car was staring at them, but Baekhyun wasn't bothered by it nor did he care.

"Oh, you little . . ." Mr. Beautiful Stranger trailed off as he suddenly jumped to his feet too and made a lunge for Baekhyun.

Baekhyun laughed, unable to help himself as he purred, "Let's play catch." And then he was taking off through the train car, a flabbergasted but excited Mr. Beautiful Stranger running after him.

Baekhyun only made it through one train car before he felt a tug on the back hem of his shirt, and then the sensation of falling backwards into strong arms. He was winded and his eyes were bright with excitement as he peered up at Mr. Beautiful Stranger, who was breathing just as heavily and looking just as excited.

Baekhyun smiled shyly and pushed out of Mr. Beautiful Stranger's arms, and with another sheepish smile he reached up on his tiptoes and laid the hat back on the head of it's rightful owner.

Mr. Beautiful gazed back down at Baekhyun, his brow slightly furrowed as if in deep contemplation. A moment passed this way before he pulled off his hat and laid it on Baekhyun's, who didn't even mind his hair was getting messed up as Mr. Beautiful said, "You can keep it. I'll just buy another one."

Baekhyun's throat was thick, but after a moment he managed to choke out, "W–why?"

Mr. Beautiful smiled sadly and softly muttered, "Because I'll probably never see you again, and I want a part of you to remember this . . ."

"That's beautiful," Baekhyun whispered. "And thank you." He was about to say something else when the train slowed to a stop and the conductor came over the sound system to say their destination. Baekhyun sighed, not wanting this moment to end. But it had to, he knew that, he just wished it didn't.

"This is my stop . . ." Baekhyun mumbled.

Mr. Beautiful smiled a small sad smile as he replied, "Mine too. Do you want to walk together until . . ."

Until we have to say goodbye, Baekhyun thought.

Baekhyun nodded and weakly smiled as he replied, "Yes, I'd like that."
