Chapter 2



Baekhyun sniffs his itchy nose when the wind blows a bit too hard for his liking. Closing his eyes tightly until they form crescents, he shivers on his spot.

“It’s too cold!” Baekhyun whimpers into his scarf, fists curled tight as he shakes his knees back and forth.

It’s another usual day for Baekhyun; having just one class for the day and then he could go all the way back home and cuddle with his pet Mr. Brown while watching all the dramas he has downloaded yesterday. Cuddle is Baekhyun’s favorite thing to do.

His class doesn’t start before ten-fifteen so with that thought in mind, Baekhyun makes his way to the café he often hangs out with his friends, ordering slices of cheese cake or just a bowl of choco chips cookies.

A cup of latte in his freezing palms and Baekhyun sends a wide grin towards the barista when he sees a drawing of puppy on the surface of his drink.

“I’m not a puppy,” he would argue but smiles nonetheless.

The barista sends him a gesture of salute before Baekhyun laughs softly and makes his way towards the corner of the café, the only spot he always sits at because it has the best view of the outside.

His fingers warm up slowly thanks to the drink and finally he takes a sip from the coffee, whining at the hotness and his tongue lolls out like an overexcited puppy. He sees the barista laughing at him and Baekhyun pouts, all sad face appearing and the barista coos at him.

His phone vibrates from a new message and Baekhyun finds out that it’s from Kyungsoo, asking on where he is. After answering that he is lounging around at the café, he immediately gets another reply from Kyungsoo containing: ‘Sitting at the corner while drinking your latte and burning your tongue?’

Baekhyun holds back a whining sound because for someone who has just known him for over ten months, Kyungsoo sure is an observant person.

I do not! >3<

He could almost see Kyungsoo rolling his eyes in the next reply: Whatever makes you sleep at night, puppy.

Baekhyun sends a pouting face to his friend before opening the application of Candy Crush Soda Saga and starts playing a few levels.

The time is ticking and Baekhyun shrieks, gulping the now cold latte down his throat when he finds that the he is almost late. It’s ten-ten and he needs a three minutes run towards his college.

He manages to give a quick wave to the kid barista before he is sprinting down the street like a puppy running after its treat. He can’t be late again! He has been scolded twice by the professor and Baekhyun couldn’t take anymore embarrassment!

His three minutes run is ruined when he bumps onto someone so tall (Baekhyun winces and pouts internally because he is forever the short kiddo, according to his mama) and drops his Accounting Theory books.

“Sorry!” Baekhyun shrieks, grabbing his two books quickly.

“Uh.” He hears the person says and Baekhyun instantly looks up to him and gives him an apologetic smile.

“I’m sorry!” He manages to choke out, before giving the tall stranger another smile to show how sorry he is for bumping onto him, before running away like a chicken losing its head.

“I’m late, I’m late!” Baekhyun whines, almost stumbling over his shoelaces and escapes by the corner of the hallway, entering his class in a record time. Ten-fourteen.

As soon as he lands by the empty seat near the window, the professor enters the class and sends him a stinky glare because apparently he has seen Baekhyun running and almost being late.

Baekhyun recovers himself and grins at the professor.





***





The professor ends the two hours long of lecture and Baekhyun shoves whatever books and notes into his sling bag. The other students are slowly going out of the classroom and Baekhyun will follow soon, after he replies to the message of Kyungsoo asking him to have lunch with him.

The short walk out of the classroom is filled with Baekhyun biting his bottom lip while thinking of what food he should ask Kyungsoo to order first because his friend is waiting for his message reply. Maybe lasagna sounds perfect, Baekhyun is hungry!

He sends a short Lasagna! ^^ to Kyungsoo before shoving his phone back into the pocket of his heavy coat (which is two sizes bigger than him because his mother says bigger clothes are better so he could wear it for a long time). He is hungry and he is sleepy, such a perfect combination. With his fist rubbing his teary eye, Baekhyun walks right behind the people slowly.

God, he is so sleepy right now! All he wants right at this moment is something warm and soft and cuddly. He yawns, mouth opening like a puppy while keeps on walking without stopping to rub his eyes with his tiny fists.

Baekhyun is stopped by force however, when something warm and soft and cuddly (such a perfect place to sleep!) appears in front of him.

There are hands holding onto him right when Baekhyun lets out a small yelp of ‘ooff’.

Looking up, Baekhyun finds someone so tall and he bows a bit, muttering “I’m sorry,” and makes a move to walk away. The tall stranger in front of him won’t let him though.







“I-I-I’m Chanyeol.” The stranger stutters, all shy and nervous.

Baekhyun blinks his eyes in confusion, head tilted aside cutely and a confused whimper escapes his lips, because as far as he remembers he doesn’t know this person (or does he?).

The stranger opens his mouth like a goldfish a few more times before he is blurting: “Be my boyfriend!”



Baekhyun blinks.

“What…?”





***





So that’s why Baekhyun finds himself half-hiding behind Kyungsoo’s shoulder as the stranger (who goes with the name of Chanyeol) is staring expectantly at him, sitting just across him at the family restaurant Baekhyun has promised to have a lunch date with Kyungsoo, along with another stranger with light brown hair sitting beside the tall male.

“Tell me the truth, Park.” Kyungsoo speaks up for the first time in fifteen minutes. Baekhyun yelps softly at the sudden voice (completely oblivious to the cooing sound from the tall male sitting across him) because apparently Kyungsoo talks without formality and he says ‘Park’, means he knows the stranger?

“Look, Kyungsoo-ssi,” the other stranger says hesitantly and Baekhyun can’t help but to feel pity towards him because Kyungsoo averts his gaze at him and is staring at him with that huge eyes of his.

“What is it now, Kim?” He barks lowly. Baekhyun shivers, fingers gripping tightly on top of his lap.

“This is Chanyeol and –”

“I know this stick man.” Kyungsoo cuts him, “And I know you, too, Kim Joonmyeon.”

The stranger (which now Baekhyun knows as Kim Joonmyeon) clears his throat and gives him a polite apologetic smile.

“And what do you guys want now? I’m sure you don’t know my little friend here.” Kyungsoo continues, ignoring Baekhyun’s pout of you are also little!

The tall stranger with sticking-out ears coos loudly, making Baekhyun yelps and back into hiding behind Kyungsoo, obviously avoiding the stranger. Kyungsoo holds out a protective arm in front of him while keep on glaring at the two strangers across them.

“W-We,” Kim Joonmyeon starts, nudging the tall male beside him to talk. The tall stranger blinks and locks his gaze on Baekhyun, before opening his mouth to talk.

“Will you be my boyfriend?” He speaks with his deep voice.

Baekhyun shrieks and Kyungsoo’s wide surprised eyes are no joke right now.

“Excuse me?” Kyungsoo’s voice sounds offended and Baekhyun can’t help but pitying the two strangers across them because they apparently get that kind of ‘Kyungsoo laser beam’.

“Can I be your boyfriend? What’s your name, cutie?”

Baekhyun trembles in fear (not really though) and hides his face against Kyungsoo’s shoulder.

A scoff escapes from Kyungsoo and Baekhyun sniffs.

“You don’t even know his name and you want him to be your boyfriend? Keep dreaming, Park!”

“Soo –” Baekhyun mutters, asking him to tone it down and stop with the possessiveness because he feels like his friend is treating him as a kid.

“You stay out of this, Baek! I need to tell some things to this Park stick man!” Kyungsoo and anger don’t go well and Baekhyun whimpers, holding his friend back from lounging across the table by hugging his waist.

“Your name is Baek? Why is it so cute?” The tall stranger keeps ignoring Kyungsoo and Baekhyun has had enough of the humiliation because people have started to pay attention to them.

“Soo, l-let me t-take care of this!” He whispers-hisses, standing up and blindly grabbing the stranger male by the hem of his coat and dragging him outside.

“Baek, no –”







Chanyeol feels like flying because his soon-to-be boyfriend is tugging onto his coat (it’s enough of physical contact) and bringing him somewhere further from the café and from the angry Do kid. He feels a bit sorry for Joonmyeon hyung but who cares about other things now that he has his soul mate right in front of him?

His cute puppy-male stops and drops his hand from his coat (Chanyeol almost whines at that) before turning around and stares at him with that droopy eyes of his.

“E-Excuse me, but w-what do you want from me?” The cutie asks, button-like nose wriggling nervously.

Chanyeol holds back a squeal, stepping closer to the other.

“I want to be your boyfriend. Will you?” He asks because he can’t hold it back anymore. He is going crazy with all the adorableness the cutie stranger is emitting.

The cutie frowns and Chanyeol doesn’t miss the faint blush covering his cheeks.

“Why would you say that? W-We don’t even know each other!” He tries to reason, tiny arms flailing here and there.

Chanyeol grins. God bless this cutie and his cute gestures.

With a newfound courage, Chanyeol grabs the stranger’s hands and holds onto them gently. The squeak coming from the stranger is also too cute.

“My name’s Park Chanyeol and I have fallen for you the moment I bumped onto you this morning. You have been running in my mind and I have been waiting for this moment to come because finding your true soul mate apparently is not an easy task. I have fallen for you, dear my cute stranger puppy. Give me a name?”







Baekhyun squeals internally because, oh God, that short speech is so romantic and this Park Chanyeol is talking about fallen and about soul mate. Being a sucker for romantic things, Baekhyun ends up bending his head down to hide his red face.

“B-Baekhyun. My n-name’s Byun Baekhyun…”

Park Chanyeol gives a firm squeeze on both of his hands and that’s when Baekhyun realizes that the other is still holding onto his hands. Oh no, they feel sweaty now, what should he do!

“Baekhyun…” Park Chanyeol whispers his name, as if he was testing the way it sounded from his mouth and Baekhyun couldn’t help but shivers from the way he hears his name rolling out from him.

It seems that Park Chanyeol thinks he is shivering from the cold because he lets go of his hands (making Baekhyun whines in his mind) and shrugging his coat, only to put it around Baekhyun.

“W-What are you –”

“Shh.” Park Chanyeol gently shuts him up with his thumb over his thin lips. Baekhyun feels his breathe hitches at the gesture.

“I don’t want my sweet little Baekhyun to feel cold. Let me do this for you.” He says, voice gentle and soft and low and it makes Baekhyun shivers again.

And again, Park Chanyeol is a stupid lanky male because he still thinks his soon-to-be boyfriend might be freezing, and so he ends up pulling the much shorter male into his arms and relishes in the feeling of having him in his embrace.



Baekhyun squeaks because this is the first time someone else rather than his family and his close friends to hug him (more over this is a stranger) and he couldn’t help but liking the warmth emitting from his Park Chanyeol.

“E-Excuse me!” He shrieks, voice muffled into Park Chanyeol’s chest.

Oh no, this is so warm and comfy and cuddly. He could spend forever here.

“Be my boyfriend, Baekhyun?” Park Chanyeol says against his ear and Baekhyun almost loses his mind. This is so much like a romantic movie and he feels his knees weakening.

“B-But we don’t know e-each other! How about we, umm, try to get along and then we can see w-where this is going?” Baekhyun mutters into his clothes. He knows he should be pulling away by now because apparently a stranger is hugging him.

He hears a sigh coming from Park Chanyeol and he almost feels guilty.

“I… Alright. Give me your number, please? I would like to ask you for a date tomorrow.”



A date!

Baekhyun scores himself a date in less than twelve hours!

Oh how proud he is to himself!



Baekhyun reluctantly steps back from the hug (but Park Chanyeol keeps a possessive grip onto his upper arms) and he reaches for his phone inside his jeans pocket.

“Cute.” Park Chanyeol says as he sees the phone strap hanging.

Baekhyun blushes and clutches it against his chest, teeth trapping his bottom lip.

“It’s e-embarrassing…” He mutters, because it’s the mascot of LINE Brown. He loves LINE characters. Sometimes he thinks he might be Cony as well.

“It’s cute, just like you. It fits you.” Screw Park Chanyeol and his cheesy mouth! Baekhyun is now a blushing mess!

“Let me type in my number and give it a call to my phone.” The deep voice says and Baekhyun couldn’t even deny him.

He hands him his phone willingly and he steals glances at the way Park Chanyeol’s big hands holding onto his phone.

They hear the ringtone of Park Chanyeol’s phone soon and when Baekhyun looks up to see his face (because he is that tall, yes), he sees such a handsome grin displayed on the tall male’s lips.

“I get your number now. I’m so happy I could die.” Park Chanyeol mutters, eyes shining dreamily and Baekhyun almost retorts back with ‘don’t die yet, you haven’t taken me out for the date’ but he keeps it in his mind only.

“Let me take you home.”

Baekhyun squeals a ‘no, it’s fine’, but Park Chanyeol seems to ignore every plea from him.

With a possessive arm slung over Baekhyun’s shoulder, Park Chanyeol makes their way out of the place which he realizes to be the public park and moving towards the street.

“So, where do you live, Baekhyunnie?”

The shorter male’s breathe hitches at the nickname and he whimpers because he freaking likes it! He likes to be pampered and there’s a male offering to do it, maybe they should just get married immediately—

No, no, bad Baekhyun!! Bad!



“I-I live at the apartment building near the college.” He mumbles, bending his head down and ended with stumbling over his own leg.

Park Chanyeol tightens his grip on his shoulder and brings him closer than ever, muttering a low ‘be careful, darling’, making Baekhyun starts to count how many nicknames he could get from the tall male.

“You live with your family?” Park Chanyeol asks again and Baekhyun thinks this is like a fifty questions for blind date.

He shakes his head no, pouting a bit. “I-I live alone. W-With my baby.”

Baekhyun yelps, however, when Park Chanyeol stops walking and stares at him with wide questioning eyes.

“Who’s that? Who’s your baby?!”

Feeling panic bubbling up, Baekhyun quickly answers in honesty, “I-It’s Mr. Brown! He is my p-puppy!”

Park Chanyeol’s face softens and he smiles again.

“I thought you have another baby other than me…” He says.

Baekhyun makes a ‘meep’ sound.

“But, what is a puppy doing, raising another puppy?” The tall male asks teasingly.

Baekhyun wonders what he means with that, but when he gets it, he snaps his head up and tries his best to give the other a glare.

“I’m not a puppy!” He argues, eyebrows furrowed, nose scrunching up, and lips puckered in a big pout.

He doesn’t really realize what kind of effect he has upon Park Chanyeol.



The tall male stumbles back on his legs, eyes wide in surprise, and face flushed.

“My God. Baekhyun, you are so fucking cute…”

Face flushing in embarrassment, Baekhyun grunts and stomps his foot to the ground.

“I’m not a puppy and I’m not cute! Why does everyone keep telling me that?”

Park Chanyeol regains his sense back and gives him a wide grin, slowly moving back to him and cupping his face with his big palms, making Baekhyun automatically bends his head up and squeaks.

“Because you are really, really, really cute, Baekhyun. From now on, no one else should call you cute other than me.”

Baekhyun blushes in pink and he steps back, turning on his heels before walking faster.



How dare he, making my heart goes like crazy! Baekhyun whines internally, pouting at the outside.

“Baekhyun! Wait!” Park Chanyeol calls before running after him and slinging an arm over his shoulder again.







“So, I l-live here…” Baekhyun mutters, fiddling with his frozen fingers.

Park Chanyeol grins at his cuteness, taking a step forward before bending his knees to see his eyes.

“Get inside and warm yourself, baby.”

Baekhyunnie, darling, baby. Three nicknames.

He could only nod at his gentle command and simply waits for his next words.

“I will text you about the date!”

“A-Alright, Park Chanyeol-ssi.”

“Hey,” Park Chanyeol calls, rubbing his thumb over the apple of his cheek, making Baekhyun feels tingly all over his body.

“Call me Chanyeol, comfortably.”

“A-Ah, okay. Chanyeol.” Baekhyun whispers softly.

It pulls a wide grin over Park Cha—I mean, Chanyeol’s face and Baekhyun bites down his lip in embarrassment.

“See you, dear.”

Dear. The fourth nickname.

“S-See you, C-Chanyeol.”



A soft kiss is planted on the side of his temple and Baekhyun unconsciously closes his eyes to relish the feeling.

Chanyeol waits for him until he gets inside, all safe and warm before turning around the corner and goes back to his own place.

Baekhyun slides down the door, knees failing him and he sees Mr. Brown pads to him, jumping onto his lap. He cuddles the puppy close to his chest as he squeals. He scores himself a date!
