"You're late."

Sehun was already waiting for Baekhyun in front of their house. He entered the car and as soon as he shut the door, Baekhyun speed off.

"Woah, slow down, take it easy! What's wrong with you?"

He looked at his cousin's face, a bit shocked. He has never seen him like that.

"Did something happen between you and Taeyeon?"

Baekhyun wasn't really listening; his mind is still confused with what happened just now. He can't stop thinking about the guy he just met.

What was his name? It's Chanyeol isn't it?

"Hyung, are you okay?"

Baekhyun snapped back to reality and turned his head to look at Sehun.

"Uh, what were you saying?"

"Geez, did you drank bad milk or something?"

"Haha..I'm fine."

"Yeah right."

Baekhyun sighed.

"It's just...I met someone."

"A hot girl?!"

Sehun's eyes were filled with excitement.

"No...urm..a hot guy."

Sehun's face expression changed immediately.

"Baek hyung?!"

Baekhyun stopped the car as they reached Sehun's studio.

"What do you mean a guy?!"

Baekhyun reached the backseat to grab a small brown paper bag.

"Here's your bubble tea, hurry up or you're going to be late."

Sehun stepped out of the car with his bubble tea in one hand but standing still in front of the door.

"I have to go now, take care, Sehun~ah."

Baekhyun drives away.

"Wait hyung!"

Sehun stood there as he watched Baekhyun's car disappears from his view.

"What just happened?"

~~~~~~~~~

At the luxurious Galaxy Hotel,

Minseok is anxiously waiting for his friend Baekhyun.

"He is never late like this. What's taking him so long?"

Baekhyun came rushing with a bag in one hand and his coat on the other. He looks messy and slightly panting. That's so unlike him.

"Hey Baekhyun, are you okay?" asked Minseok with a curious tone.

"Why is everybody keep asking me that?"

"Baek, are you okay?!"

An angelic looking guy put down the cups of latte on the nearest table and rushed to Baekhyun's side. He put one hand on Baekhyun's forehead and another hand on his own forehead.

"Hmm..you're not sick."

"I'm not sick, hyung."

Baekhyun gently pulled away Yixing's hand from his forehead.

"But why you're late? You never came late to work."

"Big deal. You guys came late almost every day. Especially Zitao -_- "

"Had a bad morning, Baekhyun?" asked Minseok

Baekhyun sighed and nodded.

Minseok gave him an encouraging smile and patted his back. Baekhyun looked at his friends, something is different.

"Oh yeah, why are you guys early? And, what's with the new clothes?"

Minseok and Yixing both looked at Baekhyun in disbelief.

"Have you forgotten?"

"Forgot what?"

Minseok slap his forehead.

"We're going to have a new boss today!"

"It's today?"

Baekhyun totally forgot about the new General Manager of their hotel that will come that day. The post had been vacant for a few weeks since their former boss; Mr. Lee quit the job to open his own little business with his wife in the countryside since he is already nearing his retiring age.

"I heard that your new boss is around your age."

A very tall and slim guy with dark eyes walked towards them.

"Zitao, you know?"

Tao smirked, "There's nothing in this hotel that I don't know."

"23 years old, to be exact." He added.

"That's the same age as Baekhyun."

Baekhyun held up his head upon hearing his name.

"Me?"

"His family just moved back to Korea from New York. He was raised in the States."

"Just like Baekhyun." Said Yixing happily.

"Well, a lot of people grew up in the States...not just me." Baekhyun mumbled by himself.

"The word has it that he's pretty strict. They said he has this serious attitude. And his stares? Ohh scary like a black cat from a dark alley. Thinking about it gives me the chills" said Tao

"But isn't he too young to be the new General Manager?"

"This guy got excellent academic records. He's the best student with impressive amount of awards. And he studied from Harvard University."

"...and to top it all."

"Hmm..?"

Tao smirked.

"He's the nephew of our hotel's CEO."

"Mr. Kwon's nephew?!", Said all three boys in unison.

"That's true, and his name is...

"Park Chanyeol" Said a voice came from behind them.

Baekhyun got chills all over his body upon hearing the voice. It can't be him? There are a lot of people with that name and they might sound similar but there's no way that it's him. >___<

Minseok, Yixing and Tao turned to the direction of the voice. All three of them were stunned at how handsome Park Chanyeol was.

"Hello."

"Yes..."

Minseok bowed a little and pulled the stunned Yixing with him.

"I'm Kim Minseok marketing director of this hotel, and this will be your secretary, Zhang Yixing."

Minseok nudge Baekhyun to turn around, but Baekhyun stood still.

"Hi, I'm Huang Zitao one of the Head Chefs of this hotel, nice to meet you."

"And you are?"

Baekhyun hoped he's wrong. He hoped that his ears deceived him, and that it's not the same voice he heard earlier that morning. He took a deep breath and turned to face his new boss.

"I'm Byun...

Baekhyun couldn't finish his sentence, as his hopes fell down. It is the same Chanyeol.

Chanyeol was equally surprised. He froze. They both stare at each other for a few seconds, no words exchanged. The atmosphere is awkward and Baekhyun is pretty sure he could smell orange juice from Chanyeol's coat. Or maybe it's just him.

...Baekhyun. Byun Baekhyun's the name s-sir..."

Baekhyun finally able to finish his sentence after much struggling.

"Nice to meet you, Baekhyun."

So we meet again.
