A Chanbaek Comeback (bc why not?)
YOYOYO IâM BACK NOT THAT ANYONE MISSED ME BUT IâM HERE SO DEAL WITH IT HAVE A FIC
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BEEP, BEEP, BEEP.
Chanyeol groaned, rolling over and smacking the top of his alarm clock. He buried his face in his pillow and sighed. He could just not show up, right? Nobody really cares if you skip class in college. He nodded to himself. He needed sleep, he could miss the first day. He rolled over and closed his eyes, beginning to drift off again. He was almost asleep when he felt something hit his head.
âGood morning, hyung,â Sehun called from the doorway. âYouâd better get ready, our first class is in thirty minutes.â
Chanyeol groaned again and pulled himself up into a sitting position. He would hurt Sehun for
this. Still, he knew he should be a good friend and show Sehun around since he was a freshman while Chanyeol was a sophomore. Chanyeol quickly got dressed and headed to the kitchen of their tiny apartment where Sehun was wolfing down a bowl of cereal. Sehun waved and smiled as if he hadnât just assaulted Chanyeol out of bed. Chanyeol shot him a glare and poured himself a cup of coffee, hoping the caffeine would wake him up enough to be able to get through his first class. The pair finished eating and Chanyeol led Sehun to his first class. They sat in the back of the lecture hall and pulled out their laptops. The professor was as boring as he could possibly be, and it took all of Chanyeol's strength to stay awake. About halfway through the class, another student rushed in.
âSorry Iâm late,â he said with a grin. He was somewhat short, with blonde hair and way too much eyeliner. The latecomer slid into the seat next to Sehun and waved at him and Chanyeol.
âSo, what did I miss?â He whispered.
âNothing,â Sehun sighed. âAbsolutely nothing.â
âWell, clearly I missed meeting the hottest boys in the class. What a shame. Weâll just have to meet up later,â he said with a wink.
Sehun grinned, but Chanyeol choked on thin air. Who was this kid? They barely knew each other, why was he saying stuff like⌠that?
âI see heâs a shy one,â the new kid said to Sehun, nodding in Chanyeolâs direction.
Sehun nodded.
âHeâs absolutely no fun at all.â
âI bet I can change that.â Sehun chuckled.
âIâm Sehun and that mess is Chanyeol, who might you be?â He asked.
âByun Baekhyun, at your service,â Baekhyun said with a little bow.
Sehun and Baekhyun continued chatting throughout the class while Chanyeol struggled to focus and take notes. The class finally ended and Chanyeol dragged himself to the next one. When lunch came around, he searched for Sehun in the food court and was surprised to find him sitting with Baekhyun.
âWhoâs that with Sehun-ah?â Chanyeolâs friend Jongdae asked.
âI dunno, some new kid. He showed up in our first class today.â
âHeâs kinda cute.â âHeâs kinda annoying.â
Jongdae chuckled and went to sit with Sehun and Baekhyun, Chanyeol following behind him.
âYa Sehun-ah, how many hot friends do you have?â Baekhyun whined when Jongdae sat down. âThis is too much for me to handle!â
Sehun laughed and patted Baekhyun on the back.
âJust look at Chanyeol when thereâs too many attractive people around.â Chanyeol shot a glare at Sehun and Baekhyun turned to look at him.
âNah, heâs part of the problem,â Baekhyun said with a smirk, shooting Chanyeol a flirty wink.
Chanyeol suddenly became deeply interested in his rice.
âIâm Jongdae,â Jongdae introduced himself, âWhy havenât we seen you around before? I guarantee I would not forget a face like yours.â
âIâm a transfer student,â Baekhyun said. âAll the girls were in love with me at my last school and all the guys were straight. It was the worst.â
Jongdae and Sehun laughed and Sehun slung his arm around Baekhyunâs shoulders.
âI donât know about the girls, but I have yet to meet a straight guy around here besides me.â
Baekhyun raised an eyebrow.
âYouâre straight?â âI was until you showed up,â Sehun said, attempting to wink at Baekhyun but failing miserably. Baekhyun just laughed and nodded.
âWell, tell me if I need to chill then, wouldnât want you questioning your sexuality all of a sudden.â Sehun nodded and began to eat his lunch, glancing over at Chanyeol who was still very much entranced by his rice.
âYeollie, you good?â âIâm fine.â
âOkay. By the way, Iâll be late coming home tonight, Baekâs taking me out for drinks. You should come too, Jongdae!â
Chanyeol furrowed his brow. Drinks? Wasnât that something you did with your good friends? Not people you just met? This Baekhyun guy was really rubbing him the wrong way. Lunch ended and the group went their separate ways. Chanyeol had trouble focusing the rest of the day. All he could think about was Baekhyun. Who was this guy to step into his life so suddenly and take his best friend? What was he planning? Chanyeol was sure he was up to no good. He sighed and headed back to his and Sehunâs apartment. Raiding the fridge, he pulled out some leftover ramen and a bottle of soju and sat in front of the TV, trying to find a good drama to watch. He turned on Descendants of the Sun, even though he had already seen it a million times and popped open the bottle of soju. He had gotten through three episodes before the door swung open, Baekhyun carrying in a drunk Sehun.
âHe had a bit much,â Baekhyun said with a chuckle, gently pushing Sehun away as the younger man tried to plant kisses on his cheeks.
âI LOVE you Baekhyunnieeeeeee,â Sehun slurred, clinging onto Baekhyunâs arm.
âYeah, yeah I love you too you big goofball,â Baekhyun chuckled. âWhereâs his room?â
Chanyeol was just staring at the two. He had seen Sehun drunk before, but he wasnât usually this⌠touchy.
âHis roomâŚ?â Baekhyun prompted.
âItâs the one on the right,â Chanyeol mumbled.
Baekhyun helped Sehun to the room and tucked him into his bed. Chanyeol frowned as he heard Sehun trying to get Baekhyun to stay. The kid was really, seriously drunk. Baekhyun came out a few minutes later.
âHe finally fell asleep,â Baekhyun said with a soft chuckle. âHeâs a bit of a mess, eh? And he claims heâs straightâŚâ Baekhyun laughed again. âIâm gonna head out. Bye, Yeollie!â
Chanyeol was going to say something about not calling him âYeollieâ but Baekhyun was already gone. He peeked into Sehunâs room and saw that the boy was sleeping soundly, wrapped around a pillow which Chanyeol figured was probably a clever Indiana Jones-style replacement by Baekhyun for himself. Stupid Baekhyun. He thought. Baekhyun had only been in his life for one day but he was already ruining it! Chanyeol sighed and quietly shut Sehunâs door, plopping into his own bed and drifting off.
The next day, neither Sehun nor Chanyeol had morning classes, so Chanyeol elected to help
Sehun through his hangover. He ran to the drug store in the morning to get hangover medication, but was surprised to find Sehun already drinking some when he got back.
âWhereâd you get that?â
âBaekhyun brought it!â
Of course he did.
âOh. Well. If you need extra Iâll put this in the fridge.â
Sehun nodded and curled up into a ball on the couch. Chanyeol tsked and brought him some water.
âDrink.â
âBut hyungâŚâ
âDrink it, Sehun. You need it.â
Sehun frowned, but took the water and began to sip it. Chanyeol smiled softly and ruffled his hair. Sehun was like a little brother to him. He had practically raised the kid through high school. It hurt that now he wasnât the most important or cool person in Sehunâs life. He sighed to himself and plopped down next to Sehun on the couch.
âMeet anybody fun at the bar?â he asked.
âIt, uh,â Sehun mumbled. âBaek didnât tell me, but it was definitely a gay bar. The, uh, the dancers were really good though. Especially this one guy. His stage name was Kai.â
âWait, was it the Exodus Bar?â Chanyeol asked.
Sehun nodded.
âThatâs Jongin! Heâs in my dance class. He is really good.â
Sehun nodded again and Chanyeol noticed a slight flush spread against his cheeks.
âYeol--â
âHm?â âKai-- or Jongin, or whatever-- my heart⌠flutters? When I look at him. Why does my heart flutter like that when I look at a man?â
Chanyeol wasnât entirely sure how to respond. He had known Sehun was gay for quite a while, he was just waiting for Sehun to figure that out for himself.
âMaybe you like him,â Chanyeol suggested. âHeâs definitely hot. And crazy talented.â
Sehun quickly shook his head.
âNo, no way. Heâs just cool. I think I just want to be like him. Yeah. Thatâs it.â
Chanyeol nodded and patted Sehunâs shoulder. Someday Sehun would be honest with himself, but maybe not today.
Soon it was time for the pair to go their separate ways and head to their classes. Chanyeol had Dance and was surprised to see Baekhyun in the studio chatting with Jongin.
âI really should have transferred sooner,â Baekhyun was saying, arm entwined with Jonginâs. âClearly all the hotties go here and I was really missing out.â
Jongin chuckled.
âWell youâll have to take that up with my boyfriend,â he replied, causing Baekhyun to pout.
âWhat? You canât be taken! Youâre not allowed to dance like that and then tell me youâre unavailable.â
Jongin laughed again and shook his head.
âSorry, but itâs just a job. The kid you brought with you was pretty cute, though.â
Chanyeol made his way over to the pair.
âAh, Yeollie!â Baek said, unlacing his arm from Jonginâs and going to lean on Chanyeol instead. âHowâs Sehunnie?â âHeâs fine,â Chanyeol mumbled, attempting to subtly push Baekhyun off of him. âYou didnât have to bring him medicine. Iâm his best friend. I can do that.â
Baekhyun frowned.
âWell Iâm the one who took him out and got him drunk,â he said matter-of-factly. âWhat is he, your boyfriend? Canât I take care of him too?â Chanyeol shook Baekhyun off and took a few steps away.
âYou only just met him!â He said, voice growing louder by the second. âWhy did you have to come into my life and take my best friend?â Baekhyun looked stunned and prepared to say something, but Chanyeol had already stormed off.
âIs he usually like this?â Baekhyun asked Jongin. Jongin shook his head.
âNo, not at all. Heâs the softest teddy bear most of the time. I donât think Iâve ever seen him attempt to get mad at someone.â
Baekhyun tilted his head and nodded. He had to admit, he was fascinated by Chanyeol. Not only was he one of the most handsome men he had ever seen, he also wore his heart on his sleeve and was comfortable in his emotionality. His cute vulnerability made Baekhyun even more attracted to him. He couldnât decide if he wanted to protect Chanyeol or ruin him. Maybe a little bit of both. Chanyeol was eventually forced to return so he wouldnât miss the start of class but he made an effort to stay as far away from Baekhyun as possible, sticking himself on the opposite side of the room. He tried to focus on himself and his own technique, but he often found his gaze drifting in the mirror over to Baekhyun. He clearly had taken dance classes before and he moved with this graceful, sensual energy that Chanyeol was absolutely entranced by. The class was over too soon and Chanyeol headed out, trying to get Baekhyunâs lithe form out of his head. The rest of his classes for the day were boring and Chanyeol felt like he had spent hours in each one of them. When he finally dragged himself back to the apartment he was pleased to see Sehun waiting with a pot of ramen.
âHungry, hyung?â Chanyeol groaned and nodded, pretending to crawl towards the food on the table like a man who had been starved for weeks. Sehun laughed and Chanyeol smiled, halting his act and walking normally the rest of the way. The pair ate quietly for the most part until Sehun spoke up. âChanyeol-hyung, just so you know, Baekhyun is coming over for movie night tomorrow.â
Chanyeol frowned.
âMovie night is our sacred roommate night.â âWell Baekhyun hasnât made a ton of friends yet and I thought it would be nice if we invited him⌠He already said yes and he sounded really excitedâŚâ
Chanyeol buried his face in his arms and nodded.
âFine.â
Sehun went off to his room to do some homework and Chanyeol was left to contemplate his nearing nightmare. Baekhyun and Sehun would probably chat throughout the whole movie making it hard to pay attention. Theyâd probably cuddle and leave Chanyeol all alone at the end of the couch even if the movie was scary. Movie nights were a sacred tradition and apparently Baekhyun was out to ruin all of those. He eventually went to bed and slept fitfully, dreaming a lot throughout the night.
Classes passed by far too quickly the next day, speeding Chanyeol towards his imminent doom. He tried to find excuses to stay late in his last class, offering to clean the desks or organize the professorâs books to no avail. Eventually, he was forced to go home. He entered the apartment to find Baekhyun and Sehun cuddled on the couch, flipping through Netflix.
âI hope Iâm not interrupting anything,â he grumbled.
âYou could always just join us,â Baekhyun said with a smile, pretending to plant kisses all over Sehunâs face. Chanyeol shook his head and flushed slightly at Baekhyunâs deeper implications.
âWe thought we could watch The Shining,â Baekhyun said, gesturing at the TV where the movie was queued.
âI donât really like scary movies,â Chanyeol replied. âLetâs watch something else.â
âBut itâll be fun,â Baekhyun whined, standing up and walking over to Chanyeol so that he could properly make puppy dog eyes at him.
Chanyeol shook his head.
âIâm not watching it.â
âScared? Iâll protect you.â âI donât need your protection.â âYou sure? You seem awfully flustered all the time.â Chanyeol was caught off guard and stuttered out a response. Baekhyun just chuckled.
âWeâre not watching The Shining,â Chanyeol said after he had gathered himself.
âWhy not?â âBecause weâre just not, okay! You donât get to make the decisions, you arenât even supposed to be here!â
Sehun sat back watching the two argue and munching on the popcorn he had made for them to share. The two boys continued insulting each other and raising their voices.
âYou donât live here! Stop showing up!â âI have as much of a right to see my friend as you do!â
âIf we watch your dumb movie, will you at least leave sooner?â
Baekhyun was about to say something, but stopped and just chuckled.
âWhat? Will you?!â
âYou so want to kiss me right now, donât you.â
Chanyeol was shocked.
âWh-what? No, what?? Why would I want to do that! Weâre talking about movies! And how youâre stealing my best friend!â
âSo youâre saying you wouldnât be open to it?â
Chanyeol fumbled for words and took a step back, trying to think of something to say. He didnât want to kiss Baekhyun. He didnât. But then, why was his heart pounding so loudly? He was scared, that was it. He was just really scared.
âEither get a room or come watch the movie,â Sehun said, breaking up the tension.
âUp to you, Yeollie,â Baekhyun said to Chanyeol with a wink.
Chanyeol shook his head quickly.
âWeâre watching the movie. And I donât want to kiss you!â
The chaos from Baekhyunâs comment allowed Sehun and Baekhyun to get their way and the trio started to watch The Shining. Chanyeol sat through the first bit of the movie, but his mind was still full of what Baekhyun had said and the movie was getting pretty scary. He eventually excused himself and went to his room, throwing himself on his bed. What was he supposed to do? He buried his face in his pillow and groaned loudly. Baekhyun was the enemy! He was stealing Chanyeolâs best friend! He was-- attractive. Really attractive. And Chanyeol wanted Baekhyun to cuddle with him, to hang off of his arm. Chaneyol sighed and hugged a pillow against his chest, squeezing his eyes shut. He had totally ruined everything. Suddenly, he felt the bed dip beside him.
âHey,â Baekhyun said softly.
âUm, hi,â Chanyeol mumbled. He sat up and pulled his knees into his chest - a difficult feat with his very long legs.
âI wanted to say sorry.â âFor what?â âFor everything. The flirting and the saying you wanted to kiss me and all that. I should have cut it out when I realized you were uncomfortable.â
Chanyeol shrugged and played with the hem of his shirt.
âYou werenât entirely wrong⌠I do want to kiss you.â
âOh?â âYeahâŚâ âIâd like to kiss you too, Chanyeol. If thatâs okay.â
Chanyeol swallowed hard and nodded slowly.
âYeah, thatâs okay,â he mumbled.
âWe donât have to,â Baekhyun said softly. He tentatively reached towards Chanyeol and placed his hand on the younger manâs shoulder when he didnât back away.
âI want to, itâs just-- Iâve never kissed anyone before.â
âWell lucky for you I am very experienced. We can turn you into an expert in no time.â
Chanyeol blushed and nodded, leaning his head against Baekhyunâs hand on his shoulder.
âThen⌠can you teach me?â
Baekhyun nodded and smiled softly. It was different from his usual smirks, more gentle and sweet. He was absolutely whipped for this boy. He placed a hand on Chanyeolâs cheek and leaned in to kiss him. He could feel Chanyeolâs nervousness through his lips and tried to soothe him, running his thumb along Chanyeolâs cheekbone and keeping the kiss light and soft. He pulled away slowly, studying Chanyeolâs face. Chanyeolâs eyes were still shut, processing the moment that had just passed.
âThat was nice,â he mumbled. He sounded almost disappointed, though.
âWas it? You donât seem very happy.â
âI am! Really! It was just⌠nice. I thought kissing was more⌠exciting?â Baekhyun chuckled and couldnât resist pressing a kiss to Chanyeolâs nose.
âYouâre adorable, you know? And kissing can be more exciting. Do you want me to show you?â Chanyeol nodded and leaned his head towards Baekhyun, sticking his lips out and making Baekhyun laugh again. Baekhyun captured Chanyeolâs lips with his own and began a deeper and more fervent kiss. He placed one hand on Chanyeolâs waist and one on the back of his neck and pressed his body into Chanyeolâs. He poured his everything into the kiss. All the built up tension he had felt for the past few dazed, the deep and aching need he had for Chanyeol. He wanted to explore every inch of Chanyeolâs mouth, every inch of his body. Baekhyun pressed Chanyeol into the mattress and kissed him harder, tangling a hand in his hair. He didnât want to stop, not even to breathe. He had to eventually, though, and he was glad he did because when he pulled back he got to see Chanyeolâs face. Flushed and breathing heavily, lips slightly parted, Chanyeol looked gorgeous.
âWhy are you looking at me like that?â Chanyeol mumbled, turning his face away. âBecause youâre beautiful.â âIâm not.â âYou are. Youâre the most beautiful thing Iâve ever seen.â Chanyeol blushed and squirmed beneath Baekhyun, trying to bury his face in his pillow. Baekhyun laughed and rolled off him, laying beside him and wrapping an arm around his waist. Chanyeol snuggled against him, tucking his head under Baekhyunâs chin. He looked a little funny since he was so much longer than Baekhyun, but Baekhyun just found it adorable.
âIs this day one, then?â Chanyeol asked.
âIf you want it to be.â âI do.â âThen yeah, this is day one,â Baekhyun agreed, leaning over to press a quick kiss to Chanyeolâs lips once again.
