SNOW DAY


Baekhyun's p.o.v.

Over the next few days, and by the start of the new week, everyone had stopped buzzed about Chanyeol and Baekhyun, allowing them to once again silently drift to the background as things continued on like usual. They had more gym class wars with their friends though — probably still payback from the food fight, as Chanyeol was always their main target, leaving Baekhyun free to sit back and watch and occasionally laugh at his silly giant. Things seemed perfect again; all the threats were gone. For once in Byun Baekhyun's life, he was truly safe — truly free.

They were in the month of December, limiting their choices of gym activities. Baekhyun was sitting cross-legged against the gym wall, rolling a medicine ball back and forth with Luhan and Minseok as they talked about nothing in partially. The others were playing a game of badminton, and Baekhyun could hear Kyungsoo yelling at Chanyeol for hitting the shuttlecock to high over his head. As long as he doesn't hit him in the ass with it, Baekhyun thought, remembering the last time he had played badminton and got a shuttlecock to the ass courteous of Chanyeol. Baekhyun sighed at the memory, a grin forming on his lips. Things had seemed simpler then, less hectic compared to the latest events.

". . . So, Baekhyun, how often do you and Chanyeol have sex?" Minseok's asked, his voice, and mainly his question, bringing Baekhyun back to the present. Luhan blushed from Minseok's words as Baekhyun mumbled, "Don't you think that's a little personal, Seok?" Minseok rolled his eyes and said, "Duh, but you're lost in La La Love, and that was the only thing that came to mind. But now that I asked . . ."

Baekhyun furrowed his brow and kicked Minseok's foot, the only closest body part he could reach, and cried, "Yah! Minseok, shut up! I am not telling you that!" Minseok pouted and whined, "Why not? I'll tell you how often Jongdae and I do it." Baekhyun scrunched up his nose and said, "Minseok, I do not need to know that," as Minseok said, "Three or four time a week! Depending on how sore we are...." Baekhyun groaned. "I did not need to know that!" Baekhyun cried. Minseok shrugged and muttered with a grin, "I bet you'll never pop by for a visit." Baekhyun fake gagged and threw the medicine ball at Minseok as he demanded, "Change the subject!" The ball knocked Minseok backwards and he let out a little "Oof!" of surprise before sitting back up and throwing it at Baekhyun. "Yah! Minseok, stop it!" Baekhyun yelled and threw the ball. "You stop it!" Minseok yelled back as he tossed the ball back at Baekhyun.

It went on like that for another moment or so, Luhan saying things like "Friends don't fight!" but his words fell on deaf ears. It was only when Jongdae came over and grabbed the ball midair as he yelled, "Both of you stop it! I can hardly think over your yelling!" that their fighting came to an end.

"Pabo, you're the one yelling now!" Kyungsoo shouted at Jongdae. "And since when do you think?" Kyungsoo grinned at that. Jongdae flipped him off and Kyungsoo replied with, "Okay, I shall do that later!" and Jongdae pinched his face and yelled, "Yah! Kyungsoo, you're disgusting!" Kyungsoo laughed.

"Jongdae, give me that ball so I can continue beating Baekhyun with it," Minseok said. Baekhyun whacked his arm and jumped to his feet as he cried, "Fine, because I'm leaving!" Baekhyun marched away and walked right into Chanyeol, sliding his arms around his waist and burying his face in his chest.

Chanyeol's p.o.v.

Chanyeol was holding his racket over his mouth to hide the fact that he had been silently laughing at the whole exchanging. Then when Baekhyun announced he was leaving and walked towards Chanyeol, worming his way into a hug, Chanyeol dropped his arm and wrapped his hand holding the racket around his waist. Chanyeol kissed Baekhyun's forehead and used his free hand to push the loose strands of hair from Baekhyun's face. Chanyeol trailed his thumb along Baekhyun's cheek and paused at his chin, placing his knuckle beneath Baekhyun's chin to angle back his head until Baekhyun's puppy eyes met his. Chanyeol smiled at Baekhyun's pouty expression, finding it absolutely adorable. Still with his knuckle beneath Baekhyun's chin, he moved his thumb to brushed it across Baekhyun's bottom lip. Baekhyun's lips slightly parted as he gazed up at Chanyeol, and Chanyeol could feel Baekhyun's warm breath against his thumb. Chanyeol dropped his hand from Baekhyun's chin and slide it up to his cheek before he did something stupid, because the warmth of Baekhyun's breath against his skin . . .

3rd p.o.v.

Chanyeol mentally shook himself and caressed Baekhyun's cheek, sliding his fingers into his hair. The silence between them was palpable and thick with desire, but Chanyeol shoved away the need and want and dropped his arm around Baekhyun's waist as he brought his other arm up too. Chanyeol leaned down towards Baekhyun and rested his forehead against his, and lightly closed his eyes. "Can you feel that?" Chanyeol softly muttered. Baekhyun gulped and sighed, "Yes." Chanyeol hummed in answer and kissed Baekhyun's forehead as he murmured, "Why do I constantly find myself wanting you?" Baekhyun sighed and his eyes fluttered shut as Chanyeol's words wrapped around him. "You're dangerous, Byun Baekhyun," Chanyeol whispered. Baekhyun smiled in response and muttered, "Too bad we can't find out how dangerous." Chanyeol groaned softly and roughly kissed Baekhyun's forehead, the safest place for him at the moment. "Hmm, Baek . . ."

Baekhyun just smiled in response and whispered, "Chanyeol . . ."

. . . .

Back at home they were sitting in the living room doing their homework and snacking on little crackers before they planned on making dinner. Baekhyun was tapping the eraser end against his mouth in contemplation as he stared at the complicated math equation. Then groaning in frustration, Baekhyun pushed away his book and clasped back into his chair with a huff. Chanyeol glanced up from his chemistry homework, saw Baekhyun, and chuckled. Baekhyun's brow pinched at the sound and he grumbled, "Yah. Shut up, giant." Chanyeol grinned and glanced at Baekhyun's homework and sucked in a breath as he muttered, "Ohh, calculus. That sucks, Baek." Then Chanyeol laughed and said, "Have fun." Baekhyun grumbled again and threw a pillow at Chanyeol; it hit him in the shoulder. Chanyeol laughed again and said, "I'll help you—"

"Oh my God, you will!" Baekhyun shouted in excitement. "Thank you thank you thank you!"

"Ugh, let me finish speaking next time," Chanyeol said with an eye roll. Baekhyun punched him, and Chanyeol grinned. "I'll help you, but . . ."

"Oh, fuck you," Baekhyun murmured and glared at Chanyeol. Chanyeol just grinned, "But you have to make dinner." Baekhyun groaned. "Yah! I did it yesterday," he whined. Chanyeol shrugged and muttered, "Oh well." Baekhyun pouted and grumbled, "Fine." Chanyeol grinned and kissed Baekhyun's cheek. "I love you, Baek," Chanyeol said sweetly. Baekhyun grumbled and muttered, "Hmm, freaking giant. I love you too." Baekhyun grumbled again and crossed his arms.

Baekhyun's p.o.v.

Baekhyun didn't want to admit it, but Chanyeol was very smart and he helped Baekhyun finish his homework in under an hour, when originally it would have taken Baekhyun two. Baekhyun was in the kitchen on his phone scrolling through recipes to give himself an idea on what to make, as Chanyeol was in the front room finishing his homework. When Baekhyun found a promising recipe, he checked to see if they had all the ingredients, then internally clapped happily because they did.

He got to work gathering everything he needed to make chicken stir-fry. A pot to put the noodles in, and a pan for the vegetables and chicken. Baekhyun diced up the meat first and boiled some water because both things would take longer, then he started on cutting up the vegetables, which consisted of broccoli, carrots, squash, celery, water chestnuts, and onions. Then he put it all into the pan with the chicken and placed a lid over the top to keep in the heat and so it would cook faster. And much like the last time Baekhyun had to wait on something to cook, he grabbed his english book from his backpack and started to read at the table.

When Chanyeol had helped Baekhyun with his homework, Baekhyun had asked if Chanyeol would help him out with his other work as well. Chanyeol had happily agreed, and Baekhyun knew with Chanyeol's help, he would catch up in his classes and not feel so pressured about graduation. Chanyeol was so good to him, even if he did have Baekhyun making dinner in exchange for Chanyeol helping him with his homework. But Baekhyun didn't mind, it was for Chanyeol, so why would he? And Chanyeol was always every patient with Baekhyun, even when he turned into a whiny child when he wanted something; and Chanyeol never got mad at him; never pushed him into something he didn't want to do or felt uncomfortable with — well, not after that . . .

Chanyeol was perfect to Baekhyun, perfect for him.

When the food had finally finished cooking, Baekhyun walked into the living room to tell Chanyeol, and found him asleep on the couch; his head lulled to the side on the cushion with a pencil in his hand and his homework hanging precariously over his knee. Baekhyun smiled softly at the sight, and didn't want to wake Chanyeol because he just looked so peaceful and innocent in his sleep. Sighing, Baekhyun quietly approached Chanyeol and brushed his fingertips across his forehead to brush back the loose strands of hair. He delicately kissed Chanyeol's forehead, the small gesture stirring Chanyeol from his sleep. "Hmm," he mumbled, and blinked his eyes open lazily as he glanced up at Baekhyun. Baekhyun smiled and murmured, "Hey sleepy head, dinner's ready." Chanyeol grumbled something illegible and shifted his position on the couch, causing the papers resting on his lap to scatter messily onto the rug. Baekhyun sighed and lightly tapped Chanyeol's cheek. "Chan, wake up," Baekhyun muttered. Chanyeol beadily opened his eyes and mumbled, "Mhm, I'm awake." Baekhyun laughed softly and said, "No your not, my sleepy giant." Chanyeol just smiled and closed his eyes as he muttered, "I'm trying."
Baekhyun softly sighed and sat down on the couch next to Chanyeol. He ran his fingers through Chanyeol's wavy hair and lightly brushed his cheek with his thumb. "Are you awake now?" Baekhyun softly asked. Chanyeol sighed, "No." Baekhyun leaned in closer and kissed Chanyeol's forehead, between his brow, his nose, either cheek, and the corners of his mouth. "How about now?" Baekhyun whispered. "Hmm, almost," Chanyeol murmured, his eyes still closed. Baekhyun smiled and lightly pressed his lips to Chanyeol's in a soft, short kiss, that had Chanyeol leaning in for more. Baekhyun lightly laughed and asked, "Are you awake now?" Chanyeol glanced at Baekhyun before his eyes dropped to his lips, as he replied with, "Nearly," and closed his eyes as he leaned in to kiss Baekhyun again. Baekhyun sighed into the kiss, and carefully rested his hand on Chanyeol's knee as he leaned closer; Chanyeol let out a hum at the gently touch. Then in response to Chanyeol, Baekhyun ran his hand up the length of Chanyeol's jeans inner seam, getting dangerous close to a certain area before Chanyeol quickly grabbed his hand and said, "Fuck, now I'm really awake." Baekhyun grinned and asked, "So, you ready to eat dinner, then?" Chanyeol glared at Baekhyun and grumbled, "You planned that." Baekhyun feigned innocence and said, "I have no idea what you're talking about, Chan." Chanyeol poked Baekhyun's side, causing him to jump and then giggle as Chanyeol said, "Yah! Such a tease, Byun Baekhyun." Baekhyun smiled sweetly and kissed Chanyeol's cheek. "But I woke you up, now, didn't I?" Chanyeol grumbled and said, "Yah. Along with something else." Baekhyun blushed and gasped, "Chanyeol, oh my God!" Chanyeol shrugged. "What? I can't help myself when it comes to you, Baek." Baekhyun rolled his eyes and mumbled, "Just try." Chanyeol kissed Baekhyun's cheek and mumbled, "I make no promises." Baekhyun just sighed and muttered, "Yah. Come on giant, lets go eat dinner before it gets cold."


The next day when both boys woke up, the light filtered in through the blinds a whitish gray color, and curiously, Baekhyun scooted towards the window and pulled the blinds back as he glanced outside. The ground was coated in a thick layer of white, and gasping, Baekhyun turned to Chanyeol and softly said, "Chan, look outside. It's so beautiful." Chanyeol rubbed his eyes and crawled towards Baekhyun, peeking over his head outside. Chanyeol whistled and said, "Wow, that's a lot of snow." Baekhyun nodded in agreement and mumbled, "I wonder if they'll cancel school . . ."

Chanyeol sighed and dropped back onto the bed as he said, "Well, we'll find out soon enough." Baekhyun nodded and laid back down beside Chanyeol, curling into his side for warmth. "I hope they cancel school," Baekhyun muttered. "Why's that?" Chanyeol murmured softly. Baekhyun just smiled and whispered, "You'll see . . ."

. . . .

Chanyeol's p.o.v.

School did get cancelled for the day, and excitedly, Baekhyun urged Chanyeol to dress into something warm before pulling him outside into the backyard. Baekhyun instantly started gathering snow together in his small gloved hands, then set the ball on the ground and started to roll it around the yard until it become too big to move. Chanyeol just watched Baekhyun with an amused grin, his arms folded over his chest to ward off the cold. When Baekhyun finished rolling the second snow ball around the yard, he turned to Chanyeol with a pout and said, "Chanyeol, there's no way I can lift this by myself. Can you help me?" Baekhyun gazed at Chanyeol with his puppy eyes and a slight pout.

Damn those puppy eyes, Chanyeol thought. They'll get me to do anything.

Sighing, Chanyeol helped Baekhyun lift the second ball before Baekhyun started to make the last one, and it was small enough for him to lift by himself. Then Baekhyun ordered Chanyeol to get a carrot from the kitchen for the nose, Chanyeol sighed again but did as Baekhyun asked. When Chanyeol came back with the carrot, Baekhyun was wrapping his scarf around the snowman's "neck".

"Baekhyun, what are you doing?" Chanyeol asked. "He'll be cold without a scarf," Baekhyun mumbled cutely. Chanyeol sighed. "Baek, you have too much imagination," Chanyeol said as he approached Baekhyun, and stuffed the carrot in the snowman's "face" before turning to Baekhyun. "And the only one here who's going to get cold is you," Chanyeol muttered as he brought his hands up to Baekhyun's shoulders and reached behind him for his hood, pulling it over his already messy hair. Then with a devious thought, Chanyeol yanked on the strings and closed Baekhyun's hood until only his lips and nose were visible. Chanyeol laughed as Baekhyun yelled, "Yah! Not funny giant!" and blindly whacked the air in a attempt to smack Chanyeol. Chanyeol just jumped out of the way as he continued to laugh. Baekhyun pulled his hood open, his eyes adjusting before glaring up at Chanyeol. Baekhyun crossed his arms and huffed. He turned away from Chanyeol and started to walk away, but didn't get far before Chanyeol was ensnaring him around the waist and pulling him back against his warm chest. Chanyeol kissed Baekhyun below the ear; his skin cold against Chanyeol's lips, and Chanyeol's lips like heaven against Baekhyun's skin. Baekhyun sighed and turned around in Chanyeol's arms, wrapping them around Chanyeol's neck and kissing him lovingly. Then pulling back with a mischievous grin as he yelled, "Hah!" and shoved Chanyeol backwards into the snow before dashing off.

Chanyeol clasped backwards into the snow with an "Oof!" and yelled, "Yah! Baekhyun, you pabo!" Chanyeol tried getting up, but slipped as the snow had turned to mush around him from his body heat. Baekhyun laughed from somewhere in the yard; Chanyeol huffed in annoyance. Finally Chanyeol managed to stand up and brushed the snow off his backside as he grumbled and glanced around the yard. Baekhyun had completely disappeared.

"What? How did he do that?" Chanyeol murmured as he peered around trees and walked towards the shed. There was a stack of old wood half-buried by snow, and peering over the top, Chanyeol could just make-out Baekhyun's gray hooded head. Chanyeol bit the inside of his cheek to keep from grinning or laughing as he silently gathered a handful of snow and shaped it into a ball. Then Chanyeol inched around the pile of wood, and jumped out in front of Baekhyun, who's eyes widened and gasped before he let out a scream as Chanyeol threw the ball of snow at him, hitting his shoulder.

Baekhyun shrieked and quickly flipped around and crawled away on his hands and knees, causing Chanyeol to laugh hysterically as he just watched Baekhyun crawl to safety. Baekhyun threw Chanyeol a glare over his shoulder and cried, "Aish! You pabo!" just as Chanyeol threw another snowball. Baekhyun cried and jumped to his feet, running around the shed to safety. Chanyeol got up and ran the other way, catching Baekhyun by surprise and tackling him around the waist. Chanyeol clasped Baekhyun around the waist and spun him once around in the air as he yelled and laughed, gasping for Chanyeol to put him down. Chanyeol grinned and laughed at Baekhyun's adorable behavior and hugged him closer, and as Chanyeol was preparing to lowered Baekhyun back to the earth, his feet slipped out from beneath him and Chanyeol clasped into the snow with Baekhyun laying on top of him.

Chanyeol grimaced from the hard yet cushioned impact, and Baekhyun furrowed his brow as he lightly touched Chanyeol's cheek with his gloved fingers. "Are you okay?" Baekhyun murmured in concern. Chanyeol nodded and smiled faintly as he muttered, "Yeah, I'm okay." Baekhyun smiled and nodded, murmuring, "Good," before gently pressing his lips to Chanyeol's. Chanyeol smiled and kissed Baekhyun back, and pecking his lips once more before moving his hand up to caress Baekhyun's pink cheek with his thumb. Chanyeol smiled lovingly at Baekhyun as he just studied the perfection that was Byun Baekhyun. His smiling face; his half-crescent moon eyes, that harbored such deep emotion; his pink completion from the cold; his sweet lips curved at the corners in a light smile; and just . . . everything.

Chanyeol continued to study Baekhyun for a moment longer, before gently pecking his pink nose, then either pink cheek, and finally his lips, that he kissed the most delicately. Chanyeol cupped Baekhyun's cheek in his hand as he kissed him a moment longer, before shifting Baekhyun to the side and standing up, pulling Baekhyun along with him.

"Okay babe, hop on," Chanyeol said, crouching down level with Baekhyun for him to climb onto Chanyeol's back. Baekhyun smiled and hopped onto Chanyeol's back, resting his cheek against Chanyeol's shoulder and kissing the exposed skin below his jawline. Chanyeol smiled at Baekhyun's touch as he proceed to walk towards the house.

When Chanyeol gently kicked the door shut with his booted foot, the soft click echoed throughout the silent house, and drew the attention of a certain person. Chanyeol's mother walked into the room, unknowingly and unintentionally "seeking up" on her son and his fiancé, as Chanyeol's attention was focused on locking the door and not dropping Baekhyun, who kept whining that he was about to slip and fall.

The sound of throat clearing came from behind them, and Chanyeol jumped, his already tenuous grip on Baekhyun's legs slipping completely. Baekhyun gasped as he fell onto the floor and cried out in pain. "Oh my God, Baekhyun, I'm so sorry!" Chanyeol cried as he crouched down and grabbed Baekhyun's hand, then pulled him into his arms like a baby as a single tear slipped down Baekhyun's cheek. Chanyeol stood back up, Baekhyun's arms and legs locked around his body and his burning face buried in Chanyeol's neck as Chanyeol glanced at his mother, who had a hand over her mouth in shock. Cringing, she glanced up at her son and mumbled a sheepish, "Sorry," before continuing on to say, "I didn't mean to startle you, and I'm extra sorry Baekhyun that you fell." Baekhyun mumbled a muffled, embarrassed "Thanks" and buried his face into Chanyeol's shoulder even more. Chanyeol sighed and supported Baekhyun by placing and arm underneath his butt and lightly resting his hand on his hip with the same arm, as his other hand rubbed up and down Baekhyun's back as if he was an infant. Baekhyun sighed at how comforting and soothing it was — and then he burped, and Chanyeol's hand froze as Baekhyun's eyes widened and Mrs. Park gasped. Baekhyun died from embarrassment as Chanyeol called a hurried, "Bye!" to his mother before dashing up the stairs.

When they were safely in their room, Chanyeol dropped Baekhyun onto the bed and cried, "What was that!?" Baekhyun blushed from embarrassment and covered his face with his hands as he mumbled in mortification, "I-I burped." Chanyeol just stared at Baekhyun for a moment, then he bursted into laughter, and ended up on the floor clutching his stomach and wiping his eyes. Baekhyun pouted at the giant and threw a pillow at his head as he cried, "Yah, stopping laughing at me!" Chanyeol laughed some more before taking a deep breath to calm himself, then snickered, "Sorry, Baek, but that was just so unexpected. I felt like I was burping a baby!" Baekhyun pouted and whacked Chanyeol with another pillow as he whined, "Yah! Chanyeol, shut up you freaking pabo! It was embarrassing!" Chanyeol caught the pillow when Baekhyun tried to hit him and muttered, "It was hilarious and bizarrely adorable." Baekhyun blushed and pulled his knees to his chest, burying his head in his knees as he mumbled, "No, it was embarrassing! Your mom was there!" Chanyeol grinned and muttered, "Yah. That's what made it all the more hilarious." Baekhyun kicked out his leg and pushed Chanyeol over. "Ow!" Chanyeol cried. "Ugh, pabo!"

"You're the pabo," Baekhyun mumbled childishly with a pout and a huff. Chanyeol chuckled and moved towards the bed, gathering Baekhyun in his arms and pulling him onto the floor with him. Chanyeol settled Baekhyun into his lap and kissed his forehead lovingly; his second favorite spot of Baekhyun's skin to kiss because it reflected his tender love.

"I love you, Baekhyun," Chanyeol whispered.

"I love you too, Chanyeol," Baekhyun murmured.
