The day blurred by. Chanyeol insisted on dropping Baekhyun while Lay didn't ask for Suho's permission again and just pulled him to his car.

"Thank you for the ride again, Yeol."

"Don't thank me now, cause this will be a part if my everyday routine." Chanyeol lips tugged intoto a smirk when he saw the latter's wide eyes and shocked expression on hearing him.

"No, this is too much–"

"Let me do this atleast, Baek, please." He pouted and showed his puppy eyes to the latter hoping that he agrees, which the latter did, making him crack a wide smile.

Chanyeol started leaning closer to him, making Baek lean backwards, he was too close that his lips was just a hairsbreadth away from the latter.

But just like some romantic clichés in k-dramas where female lead can't put on her seatbelt without the help of male lead; Chanyeol pulled on his seatbelt and leaned back.

"I love your strawberry scent." Chanyeol commented, a hint of adoration in his eyes with something else which the latter couldn't figure out, so he just looked down fidgeting his fingers, with a hue of pink playing across his cheeks a he mumbled a 'just drive already'.

I am just so lucky to have him as my mate, such a pure and innocent human. I will always be thankful to the Moon Goddess for this. He thought eyeing the latter every now and then, carefully gazing his every change in expression and position, as he chuckled lightly at his adorableness. I will protect you with my life, my love when time comes but I will always be sorry for dragging you to my hell. Please forgive me if something happens but I can't live without you too.
Let me be selfish for this once, let's enjoy our time together even if it doesn't last long.
I will win your heart and make you mine no matter what, though I don't deserve you.

While the latter was busy with his own thoughts. Do I like him? If not then what's this feeling? But is this infatuation? What if he leaves me after he finds someone better? Ah- whatever, so fraustating. A low grunt escaped his lips which didn't go unnoticed by the latter but he chose to ignore it. Baekhyun was so lost in his world that he didn't noticed when they reached his home.

"Baekhyun" the latter called him softly. "We are here."

"Oh, thank you so much Yeol. Bye." He showed him his usual boxy smile and was about to open the door but the latter gripped his arms gently stopping him from doing so.

"Baekhyun can I hug you please?" Chanyeol pleaded him, giving him his puppy eyes and latter doesn't have a heart to deny him.

"Yes." He whispered lowly and that's all it took Chanyeol to pull him in his arms, hugging him tightly as if he would vanish any second, caging him inside his arms.

He sniffed his strawberry scent again as much as he can in one go, which calmed him down a bit as soon as it invaded his senses. "I love your smell Baekhyun." He whispered against his ear as a silver coursed down his spine.

His petite body fitted perfectly inside those strong muscles as he returned the hug briefly and patted his back as if assuring him that he will be there for him.

Chanyeol pulled back after a few minutes, as much as he wants to hold him like that forever, to cage him inside his arms and never letting him go, feel the warmth radiating from his body, he can't though he is craving for it again now.

He kissed his forehead and he left his lips to linger there as the latter felt a unfamiliar warmth flashed through him creating a spark between them and he has no more reason to fight it now.

"I will think about it Chanyeol, trust me." Baekhyun smiled at him.

"Yeah I trust you. Now leave before someone sees us." He gently pushed the latter out of his car, grinning.

Chanyeol waited till Baekhyun went inside, then he drove away with a thumping heart and a wide smile dancing across his face showing his perfect set of white teeth and cute dimple.

_______

A tall man in black clothings, a mask and cap covering his face eyed Chanyeol's car and when it was out of his sight, he fished out his phone from his pocket and called someone.

"I caught him now, but his face wasn't clear."

"Good, now do whatever it takes to catch him." The one on the other line ordered and disconnected the call.

He glanced at Baekhyun's house for the last time before he disappeared.

___________

The buzzing of the phone forced Chanyeol's attention to it, he glanced at it and it was a text message from an unknown number.

Unknown
Let's meet again.

                                           Chanyeol
                                     Don't wanna.

Unknown number
You will regret this, and it will be your fault. Don't blame me later.

                                           Chanyeol
                   Time and place please.

________

Lay kept staring at his phone, at the text, swaying his thumb over it, debating whether he should send the text or not.

What if he won't come, it doesn't matter right. Then I will not send. He thought

"HYUNG, JENO WILL BE HERE ANY MINUTE." Jaemin's loud voice startled him which made him press the send option by accident.

"OH! SHIT NO!." He cursed.

"Why? What happened?" Jaemin asked as he entered his room. He snatched his brother's phone, reading the text message.

Lay
Jaemin invited Jeno for a sleepover. Why don't you tag along? We can have a movies' night and if you want, a sleepover too ;)
Seen

                                            Myeoni
    Sure if you want. I will tag along
                                          with him.

"Hyung, only sleep okay. Don't do anything else." Jeno playfully smirked at the latter's embarrassed face, though he was kinda serious.

"I should be the one advising you that." Lay hissed at him.

"Sorry we can't promise that." Jaemin replied with a monotonous voice and ran out of his room, throwing the latter's phone on his bed.

The buzzing of his phone stopped him from following his brother. It was Kris calling him.
He frowned thinking of the negative possibilities of why he called so he accepted the call quickly.

"Hello."

"There are two news. The first one is good but the second one is bad, which one do you want to hear first?" Kris asked him.

"Bad one first." He replied.

"We couldn't find her this time too. Looks like she knows that we are after her that's why she changed her location, maybe." Kris said in a monotonous voice which the latter didn't liked a bit.

"Then, what's your point? Do you want me to stop searching for her or what?" He replied annoyed.

"Don't get me wrong, but it has been years. Why don't you give up-"

"That doesn't matter to me." He said and with that he disconnected the call, throwing his phone on his bed again, fraustated.

A soft knock on his door made him realised that he was expecting someone.

He ran his fingers through his hair, brushing them back, rolled up his sleeves and unbuttoned first few buttons of his shirt as he heaved a 'come in'.

Suho entered the room as soon as he heard it, cluching a book in his hand, gazing down.

His amber-vanilla scent diffuses in the air of the room as soon as he entered.

The latter sniffed it deeply, the scent of his fresh and sweet blood ensnaring his senses as desire swirled in his nerves.

Lay waddled towards him, standing before him, close enough to make the latter back away a little to create a space between them.

"How are you?" He asked gazing down at his eyes.

"I'm f-ine. Thank you." Suho shuttered, avoiding to meet his eyes.

"Good. Then should we start our night session?" He asked as his lips curled up to a mischievous smirk, making the latter's blush and look away, his heart pounding hard and warmth invaded his neck.

Lay's cold hand slid around his wrist and he pulled him towards the oak table at one end of his room.

"Let's get it started." Lay whispered behind him as he made him sit on a chair before it. As Suho immersed himself in his studies, Lay focused on him.

____

That night as the pale cresent moon which shone like a silver jewel painted the sky with it's silvery light and the twinkling stars danced around the dark sky, two boys slept in each other's arms peacefully without a care of the world. Just the two of them mattered.

One of them being unaware of how he spent his night in someone else arms, someone whom he loves, someone he always cared of, someone with whom he wants to spend his life with, someone who fell for him at the very first sight, someone who made him forget what happened that night and how he spent his night in his strong arms.

"Your seduction so nuanced who's to blame, I'm enticed vehemently like a moth to the flame."
