A Fresh New Start- Or Not
Narrator's Point of View
"Sir Baekhyun dude, it's time to wake up." Alfred, the legendary butl— Baekhyun's butler told the sleeping prince of Namja Island who woke up with a throbbing headache because of partying too much last night.
"Go away Alfred, I'm tired." Baekhyun, the 24 year old prince, swung his hand trying to signal Mr. Lee to go out of his room and give him some peace and quiet
"Nonsense master Baekhyun. You're mom's calling you to have breakfast with them and your dad has something to say to you." Alfred told Baekhyun who groaned and shifted on his bed, still not trying to get out of bed
Baekhyun knew better than to eat breakfast with his dad when he went to a party last night. Even if Mr. Lee tells Baekhyun that his dad just has something to say to him, he already knows that it's just going to be another breakfast with constant life lessons and screams from his annoying father who always tells him to be more mature and stop wasting his allowance on useless things which is 500,000 won per day. Baekhyun being the only child of the royal family is always spoiled by expensive brands, grandparents and mostly by his mother. His mother spoils him too much that by the age of 10, Baekhyun bought himself so many toys and things that aren't really needed by him. By the age of 14, Baekhyun illegally snuck into a club who was quickly seen by the paparazzis and his father had to pay 15 million won just to erase every image, video and news that includes Baekhyun going into a club. Baekhyun's been a brat and every year, he just gets worse.

After taking a painkiller and a hangover soup, Baekhyun casually walked into the gigantic dining hall silently hoping for his dad to not be there. But his parents waited for him and all his mom could do was to smile painfully at him knowing that her son will get shouted at again.
"Morning mum, hi dad." Baekhyun greeted them and laid back on his usual seat before saying oof
"Don't you have something to tell us, Byun Baekhyun?" His father asks him in a rather calm but harsh tone
"Hmm... Let me think.... Oh, I got nothing to tell you." Baekhyun told his dad and smiled at him before one of the maids served his food before lifting the metal food cover up and bowing respectfully and leaving.
Belgian waffles, strawberry yogurt, honey, miso soup and apple juice. Baekhyun mentally sighed in satisfaction just by getting intoxicated by the sweet smell of his breakfast and quickly digs in then moans in satisfaction and chews the Belgian waffles slowly after putting honey on it.
"Istg, this is still the best breakfast I've ever had." Baekhyun tells his parents with his father still unfazed and his mother contented by the response from her son.
"Istg? Getting drunk when you were supposed to be on a meeting yesterday? Byun Baekhyun! This is the reason why you also can't make a serious relationship last! When will you grow up and stop that bad habit of yours?!" His father bursted out in anger and Baekhyun just swallowed the piece of Belgian waffle and drank his apple juice.
"My dear father whom I truly love. Those boys and girls just don't really attract me to the point that I'll do anything for them. My habits are a part of my life and I'm afraid to say that I won't stop from my oh-so-good habits." Baekhyun replies sarcastically making his dad's blood boil.
"That is it! Byun Baekhyun it's time for you to learn some manners!" Baekhyun's father, Byun Yixing stood up and shouted at his son while glaring at him.
"Xing Xing ah what are you saying? Our son has manners!" Byun Junmyeon, Baekhyun's mother quickly defended his son
"Correction honey, he had. You spoiled him too much! Can't you see he's causing a lot of ruckus nowadays, Junmyeon? I'm afraid that our citizens may stop respecting us because of our son's so called habits of his!" Yixing massaged his temples and went over to Junmyeon to kiss his forehead so his wife wouldn't cry
Yixing groans and said, "I prepared for this anyway... Baekhyun, you're going off the island—" Yixing was quickly interrupted by his distressed wife and son
"What?!" They both screamed
Yixing would've laughed because of the impromptu response he got from the two; but he chose not to because what they're discussing right now is something very serious.
"Remember the Park family?" Yixing asked both Junmyeon and Baekhyun
Baekhyun shook his head while Junmyeon said 'ahh'
"Park Yifan and Park Zitao?" Junmyeon answered unsurely while Baekhyun paid no attention to them and continues eating
"Yes... I've been in contact with them ever since the first meeting and their son came to visit us last week but as far as I can remember you were sick when he went here and Baekhyun was obviously out that time." Baekhyun just hummed when he heard his name and his mother was still silent; waiting for his husband to continue.
"Basically Chanyeol was here to ask us how we were and can you believe it, that kid owns multiple cafés now—" Junmyeon coughed since Yixing was accidentally getting off topic
"Oh right, thanks honey. He told me about how his place was always quiet and it was getting boring.... I remembered Baekhyun and I asked him a favor to let Baekhyun live there for a while—" Again, Yixing was interrupted by Baekhyun choking before coughing really hard
"But dad?!" Baekhyun whined but his father just rolled his eyes
"It's for your own good Baekhyun. You'll be living with Chanyeol for a whole year or maybe more or less than that. It depends on Chanyeol's monthly report." Yixing explained to his son who huffed in annoyance
"He's a stranger and he might be evil!" Baekhyun tried to convince his father and started eating again feeling very stressed
"Now now Baekhyun. Chanyeol is a nice boy and I'll also cut your allowance to 500,000 won per week." Yixing added and his son stomped his feet childishly making the table shake a little but not much since it was very long and heavy.
"But how about the paparazzis?" Baekhyun asked
"Chanyeol and I talked about that. He set cctvs at two of his houses where you can live in. He promised to keep an eye on you always and you'll also be working for him." Baekhyun's father explained further more making Baekhyun lean back on his seat feeling his world collapsing down as his father spoke more about his living conditions but Baekhyun could care less about it.
'Working for someone?! My dad is just too cruel!'
"I'm going out." Baekhyun quickly ran out of the dining hall before any of the maids or guards can stop him.

"Wait your dad is actually going to do that?" Jongdae asked me the same question for the third time
"Yes Jongdae. Y. E. S." Baekhyun emphasized and Jongin laughed
Kim Jongdae, the son of a famous resort in their island and Kim Jongin, a nobody— just joking— one of the most famous model who exists right now has been his friends since childhood. It might sound crazy but Jongdae and Jongin are actually his second cousins. Jongdae being the eldest and the middle is Baekhyun while Jongin is the youngest among the three men.
"The fuck are you laughin' about bitch?" Baekhyun asked Jongin who just grinned sinisterly at him
"Well, I mean you kinda deserved this, don't you think?" Jongin asked Baekhyun who looked at Jongin with his eyes piercing through the younger's soul. He was just controlling himself from throwing the 10,000 won piece of cake at Jongin.
"Are you completely siding with my fucking father right now, kid?" Baekhyun asked Jongin in a somewhat dominant but playful voice
"Excuse you, but I'm just two years younger than you." Jongin snapped back and rolled his eyes at Baekhyun laughs
"But I'm still 24 and you're only 22 so I'm still older." Baekhyun retorted
"But on the bright side, you can bribe that Chanyeom with money or something and voila he'll just let you go anywhere and be yourself. Like, isn't that great? No parents and I'm pretty sure that this guy Chanyeom is just that chill, laidback type of guy who doesn't really give a fuck about what you're doing." Jongdae lightens up the mood and Jonghin hums and nods his head in agreement
"But how about Daehyun though?" Baekhyun abruptly stops eating and looks at Jongin
Daehyun is actually Baekhyun's current boyfriend who he's been dating for a month now. To say that Daehyun and his relationship is the longest relationship he's gotten into so far is a lie... Is totally wrong. With an appealing face and thick chunks of money in his pocket, he easily attracts boys and girls. Most of them only liked Baekhyun for his money and fame that's why he was very picky when it comes to finding another lover or simply saying; finding another fling. Although Baekhyun doesn't really date girls; he just dated girls twice because he suddenly realizes something different in him... Something that tells him that girls aren't his type... Something that tells him that he's just like Jongin and Jongdae... Yes, he's gay. He only realized it recently when Jongdae decided to bring him to a gay club.
"I think I'll just send him a text message or something that I'm breaking up with him." Baekhyun spoke nonchalantly like it was a normal thing to say— well maybe for him it is normal.
"Are you sure bro?" Jongdae asked Baekhyun concernedly even if he knew that Baekhyun is always dead serious about the things that he say
"Yeah... I mean, I'm going to Seoul so maybe I'll find myself there a nice boyfriend." Baekhyun stated dreamily as he was just imagining different scenarios of him going through different clubs and all of the fun that he can possibly have while being in Seoul.
"It looks like you're already daydreaming of Seoul and you look excited for it." Jongin told Baekhyun which got the older out of his imagination
"I mean like... How bad can it be?" He smiled at Jongin and Jongdae
"Don't worry if you miss us, we'll just call a helicopter or something... Just make sure that the place you're going to live in has a helipad or we're screwed." Jongdae joked but no one dared to laugh at the so called funny joke
"Aww don't be sad my cousin." The troll tried to hug his cousin who's sitting near him but ended up slipping his foot and losing balance before his precious face hit Baekhyun's chair,

"Gah! Alfred I'll really miss you! Can't you convince my parents or something?" Baekhyun said while jumping on his bed while Alfred the butler is currently fixing his luggages
"I'm very sorry Sir Baekhyun dude but I'm afraid that it's not a part of my job and I could literally get killed or get thrown away from this island if I do that." Alfred the butler told him while still fixing his luggages
Their island isn't really that small. It's a huge island that is still a part of South Korea but is also still ruled by Kings and Queens. There aren't many differences from South Korea and Namja island. In fact, Namja Island is just like the slightly smaller version of South Korea and the only difference is that Kings and Queens (Monarchy), some laws and the legal age in Namja Island is 20 years old for boys and 18 for girls.
"But Alfred—" Before Baekhyun can continue Alfred butts in
"Don't worry sir Baekhyun, I'll be visiting you from sometimes and if you behave, it'll only be a month or two." Alfred the butler encouraged Baekhyun but that wasn't enough for the younger to change his mind about his opinion on this whole situation thing.
"Ugh! Why is my life so messed up?!" Baekhyun sighed frustratedly and fell back on his bed, back against the cushions.
"Because you're the prince." Alfred replied in a deadpan expression as he finished packing Baekhyun's twentieth luggage.

To say that Chanyeol wasn't excited to see his soon to be housemate is a blatant lie. In fact, Chanyeol came three hours earlier to the airport just to wait for the smaller and also because of security purposes. He wanted to make sure that he at least knows something about the boy so he did some online research about the boy his dad's friend was talking about because he wasn't really aware that Junmyeon has a son. Fortunately, the internet was fast in the private terminal so he somewhat learned some facts from the boy. Firstly, Byun Baekhyun is his full name and Baekhyun is five years younger than him. After the three long hours of waiting, Baekhyun's plane arrived and Chanyeol expected at least a warm smile from the younger but the first thing the younger said was,
"Are you going to take my bags now?" Baekhyun sassily asked Chanyeol who was a bit prepared for a bit of attitude since his uncle Junmyeon warned him about this.
".... They'll be brought to the condo in a separate car. Come on, let's get to my car." Before Chanyeol can touch Baekhyun's arm to guide him, Baekhyun was quick to slap his hand away and glare at him.
"Don't touch me." Baekhyun emphasized making Chanyeol irk as he just wanted the boy in a chokehold because of his damn attitude towards him.
Chanyeol leads the way and drags Baekhyun to his car that's a bit far away from where the plane landed.
"What the?! I told you to not touch me! Get your hands off of me you jerk!" Baekhyun shouted as he tried to pry the tall man's hand off of his wrist while slightly wincing as his bracelet was slowly digging down his skin which would probably cause a red mark later.
Chanyeol opens the door for Baekhyun and latches his seatbelt before going to the other side and shutting the door before he turns on the engine. He starts driving and looks at the rear view mirror to stare at the younger who's still cursing profanities at the air. He smirked as he realized at how much fun he'll be having with the boy.
'I'll teach you how to obey me soon, baby boy.'
