"I'm so hungry~" Baekhyun mumbled as he arrived home with a box of pizza in one hand and his bag in the other.

Baekhee was painting her nails when she turned to see her brother happily entering the house with a bright face.

"Baekhyun I have something to tell you." Baekhee muttered seriously as she placed her brush into a bottle of polish.

"What is it? Are you hungry I have food!" Baekhyun answered as he closed the door.

"Dad says he's abdicating and you're going to take care of the company soon." Baekhee stated as she watched her brother's reaction.

"Pardon?" Baekhyun asked as he sat himself on his couch and pulled out papers.

"You-Byun Baekhyun will soon take over dad's spot after he takes care of the R&T issue." Baekhee mumbled while puffing air on her nails.

"Ugh whatever I'm not going to-you'll probably fare better than me." Baekhyun grumbled as he reached for the remote to switch the channel.

"Yah! I was watching that!" Baekhee swatted her brother's arm to switch the channel back to Exo Next Door.

"What show is this? That girl is weird her face blushes so red and why is the main actor so awkward?" Baekhyun criticized as he began grading tests.

"Shut up Baek! You can't hate my stuff! And don't you think Chanyeol oppa looks like that cute actor?" Baekhee asked dreamily as Baekhyun rolled his eyes.

"Who watches these dumb shows anyways? You should be doing your homework young lady." Baekhyun grumbled but he did like that one character who was kinda cute with puppy eyes and fluffy hair.

Baekhyun went in his room to complete his tasks before taking some medicine and laid in bed smiling happily.

~~~~~

Baekhyun groaned he was pissed off. He forgot that he actually left his bicycle at school and now he's slapped against suffocating bodies on the bus.

His fever got a bit better yet he still had an ache in his head. As he finally shuffled off the bus, he had to walk a couple more blocks before entering the well known school.

He was in a great mood though since his students' scores were improving-well except one maybe.

Maybe he should think of a tutoring session for the taller but did he really want to sacrifice his precious time with a snarky brat?

As he was lost in his thoughts, Kyungsoo went close to him before greeting.

"Woah I never knew you rode the bus I thought you rode your bicycle all the time." Kyungsoo smiled as he had a little skip in his steps.

"I forgot that here haha." Baekhyun answered.

"Oh before I forget, you're invited to my birthday party this Sunday!" Kyungsoo excitedly announced as Baekhyun gulped.

What was this situation? Should he tell Kyungsoo about his identity? But still how come does he still not know that he was teaching here? But if he said it now then.....what if Kyungsoo takes back his invitation? No the cake! Ok I'll tell him after his party for the sake of cake.

After Baekhyun finished arguing with himself, Baekhyun agreed.

Kyungsoo smiled brightly at that before bidding goodbye to the other. As Baekhyun dawdled in his thoughts, he heard loud shouting behind the building.

Worried, he walked towards the noise and saw a poor kid looking terrified at the four students surrounding him.

"Pay up. Come on we don't got all day." The kid facing away from Baekhyun yelled as the scared boy huddled closer towards his backpack.

"What's all this ruckus?" Baekhyun stepped in as he pushed the small group of people away to get to the kid.

"Yah stop butting in!" A kid warned and Baekhyun tsked before pulling the student up with him.

He gave a glare before he went to grab each of their ears one by one and yanked them causing them to yelp in pain.

"Office now." Baekhyun ordered as he pushed the four one way while giving a small wave to the frightened child.

~~~~~

"Chanyeol I need to talk to you." Kai said as he found the taller walking up his locker.

"Spill." Chanyeol replied as the other stood a bit rigid but composed.

"Don't mess with Kyungsoo." Kai stated as he pierced his eyes through the taller.

That seemed to get the taller's attention as he looked surprised before mocking "that penguin looking dork? Why do you care so much about him anyways?"

"Just don't harm him or make him sad anymore. Or else let's break off this friendship."

Clenching his teeth, Chanyeol asked "You're serious?"

"As serious as I can be." Kai stated before he finished with a pat on Chanyeol's shoulder along with a "bye."

Chanyeol sighed stalking away in confusion but slowed as he saw his teacher dragging some students towards the office.

He noticed them as Kasper and his three followers the bullies to lower classmen but they never once tried to challenge him.

As his gaze followed his teacher, he felt a smile tugging at the corners of his lips yet he didn't let it form completely. He couldn't believe his brave teacher but probably naive too since he's lighting up all these fires.

He better be glad I've got his back. Chanyeol thought proudly.

His mood was pretty high up until he recalled last night's event. Since when was Baekhyun close with the principal?

The bell rang and Chanyeol was going to ditch but Baekhyun will be back, right? After contemplating with himself, he grudgingly walked to his classroom.

~~~~~

The four boys sat groaning as they faced the principal.

Taeyeon sighed as she saw these troublemakers again. Oh how can she forget that Chanyeol's not the only troublesome student in this school.

"It's the sixth time you guys have been here since the start of the school year. You guys should stop causing trouble especially you Kasper." Taeyeon began lecturing as Baekhyun nodded his head while the four mumbled or glared at Baekhyun.

"Detention three hours with Mr. Byun there," Taeyeon concluded after she gave her long lecture.

Baekhyun who was still agreeing with everything Taeyeon said paused and had a look of horror.

"Th-three hours?! But tonight it's the finale of my dr-" Baekhyun complained but got interrupted by three of the students.

"Ms. Kim we are sorry! We promise to never do it again! I have to help my mom with chores!" They pleaded and continued until Taeyeon left them off the hook for now with cleaning duty tomorrow.

"Kasper what do you have to say about yourself?" Taeyeon asked.

"Nothing. I'm not a coward." He stated glaring at the three embarrassed people.

After they left, the four turned away while giving Baekhyun the stink eye. Baekhyun shook his head as he rushed to his classroom-late once again.

"Good morning everyone." Baekhyun started and told everyone to flip to page 256 of their textbooks.

Chanyeol watched amused at his teacher talking and for the first time listened attentively.

~~~~~

With the last of the bells ending, Baekhyun began packing up everything but with the arrival of Kasper, he remembered his task.

"Ugh ok so sit wherever you want and do nothing or here's a worksheet you can do." Baekhyun instructed while he passed him a piece of paper.

He either slept, doodled, or stared off in space.

Everything was peaceful as Baekhyun graded papers, when a chair screeched back and Kasper stood up.

Approaching slowly towards Baekhyun he screamed cocky and confident.

He knocked on Baekhyun's desk to get the other's attention and the smaller looked up confused.

"Yes?" Baekhyun asked with a small tilt of his head.

"Let's fight."

~~~~~

I feel so bad for updating after so long! I'm just worried that if I update too soon I put little effort to look them over. 😣😣😣

And is Baekhyun going to be in trouble hmmmm......
