Baekhyun and Kyungsoo were relaxing on the couch together in Baekhyun's living room, watching yet another season of Friends. Baekhyun was tossing popcorn into his mouth while Kyungsoo munched on Twizzlers, and it was a scene with Rachel and Ross. Kyungsoo furrowed his brow and waved his Twizzler at the TV as he cried, "You're like them! I bet there's someone out there for you, maybe even standing right in front of you, and you don't even know it."
Baekhyun rolled his eyes and muttered, "I don't even know if I want a relationship, Soo. Everytime I try, I just end up being used."
"And you think having a baby will better your chances of not living alone? Because I hate to break it to you, Baek, it won't," Kyungsoo said matter-of-factly.
Baekhyun pursed his lips and grumbled, "You're so annoying, I know what I'm doing."
"I still think you're insane . . ." Kyungsoo mumbled.
Baekhyun rolled his eyes and muttered, "Yeah well, you've made that perfectly clear . . ."
Kyungsoo sighed. "When are you meeting Sehun again?"
"Later today, he wants to have dinner," Baekhyun replied.
"That sounds serious . . ." Kyungsoo muttered.
"It's not, we're just friends, Soo," Baekhyun said.
"Yeah, friends that are planning to have a baby together . . ."
Baekhyun huffed and snapped, "Will you just drop it! I know how stupid you think I am for wanting a baby. So please, keep your opinions to yourself."
Kyungsoo raised his hands in surrender as he replied, "Okay, I'm sorry."
Baekhyun sighed. "Thank you, and yes, we're having dinner as friends."
"Do you see it going anywhere with Sehun, I mean, since your—- Um, nevermind . . ." Kyungsoo trailed off.
Baekhyun sighed. "It's fine, and I've been wondering the same thing. I asked him if he wanted to be apart of our lives when I have the baby, and he said he's always wanted a family so I....I think he's genuine, and we've been going on dates and seeing each other for nearly two weeks now, so if he was unsure I think I'd know."
Kyungsoo nodded. "I just hope it all works out...."
Baekhyun sighed. "Me too . . ."
A moment of silence passed between them as they watched the show, and then Kyungsoo was asking another question.
"Are you going to the Christmas party this Sunday? I know it's the same day as your insemination...." Kyungsoo said.
"I'd like to go if I can," Baekhyun replied. "We have a tradition, although I know I won't be able to drink I can still have a lot of punch and pretend."
Kyungsoo laughed. "I hope you come, it won't be the same without you there."
Baekhyun smiled. "Thanks."

Later that same evening, Baekhyun readied himself for his date with Sehun by dressing in a new white button-up top and a pair of dark blue skinny jeans. He would miss his jeans when he was pregnant, but it wouldn't be until he started gaining the baby weight that he'd have to give them up. He finished getting ready by styling his hair that he had recently dyed a honey blonde, and added a touch of makeup to finish off his completed look.
He smiled at himself in his bathroom mirror, and then went to put on his coat and scarf, and pulled on his gloves before locking his door and going out into the chilly night to his car.
When Baekhyun pulled up into the parking lot of the restaurant he had agreed to meet Sehun, he didn't realize the place was so fancy and immediately felt like he was underdressed. He went inside shyly, and took a seat in the waiting area as he pulled out his phone. He sent a quick message to Sehun, and only had to wait a second before his phone buzzed with a reply that read:
From: Sehun
To: Baekhyun
Hey! I'm nearly there, I got caught in traffic. See you soon!
Baekhyun smiled to himself as he slide his phone back into his pocket. He only had to wait fifteen minutes before Sehun walked through the restaurant doors looking like a Greek God with his sleek and shinny black hair slicked back, and a warm brown coat that reached to his knees. Baekhyun felt his cheeks flush as Sehun looked around before spotting him under the soft luminescent lights, a smile breaking across his face as he took four long strides to reach him.
Sehun held his hand out to help Baekhyun to his feet, and once he had, he did something unexpected. He kissed Baekhyun on the cheek before softly whispering, "You look beautiful."
Baekhyun's cheek were burning as he stuttered,
"S–so—-so do you."
Sehun smiled as he slipped his hand into Baekhyun's before gently leading him forward to get their reservation. When they were lead to their table, Sehun held out Baekhyun's chair for him and his blush began to spread down to his neck. He nervously fiddled with his fingers before muttering, "Sehun, do you . . ." Baekhyun trailed off and mentally shook his head before saying, "I mean, would you mind if I order us a bottle of wine. I'd like to be able to drink before I can't anymore . . ."
Sehun nodded with a small smile as he replied, "Sure, wine would be great."
Baekhyun smiled as he flipped to the wine section, looking it over before asking their waiter for the one he wanted. The waiter returned with a bottle a moment later, and Baekhyun thanked him as he popped the cork and filled their glass with the moderate amount. Baekhyun thanked him once more, and then he left to attend to his other tables.
Baekhyun took a small sip, and nearly moaned at how good it tasted. He would definitely miss his wine.
Sehun was flipping through his menu, and glanced up to ask, "Do you have any plans for Christmas?"
Baekhyun nodded and replied, "Yes, I have plans to visit my parents and older brother. I haven't seen them since my birthday."
Sehun softly whistled and replied, "Wow, that was a while ago. What kept you away?"
Baekhyun shrugged. "Work . . ." he answered vaguely.
Sehun pursed his lips and nodded. "I'll be visiting my family as well, but if you'd like, maybe we could see each other Sunday? I know you have your appointment that day, but maybe after if you're feeling up to it?"
"I actually have a Christmas party I'm going to with Kyungsoo, it's a work thing that happens every year before Christmas Eve and I'd hate to miss this one if I can avoid it . . ."
Sehun nodded. "That's okay, I can always see you after Christmas," he said.
Baekhyun smiled. "That's very true."
Sehun smiled too, and the rest of the night went by smoothly with small talk here and there, and once they had finished with their dinner, Sehun once again kissed Baekhyun on his cheek before safely seeing him off. And the whole drive home, Baekhyun couldn't help but wonder what it meant.
