Chapter 5



It’s been a while since the last time Baekhyun feels this way. Waking up in the morning and having her dry lips stretched up into a grin just by the thought of today’s plan.

Chanyeol is taking her to his house.

Maybe it will be too fast for some people but Baekhyun finding herself looking forward to it. She is curious on what kind of environment and surroundings Chanyeol has grown up in.

You awake?

There’s that message in her phone for about ten minutes ago and Baekhyun stretches her torso before typing a reply to it.

Just wake up. What are you doing awake so early?

I’m tidying my room a bit. It’s kind of messy and I don’t want you to laugh at me.

Baekhyun giggles at his reply. Chanyeol could be very adorable at times.

Don’t worry about it. Being messy is in every guy’s way of life.

But I have books and CDs and papers everywhere.

She rummages through her closet for a polite outfit because she will meet Chanyeol’s mother and she would like to make a good first impression.

I will be picking you up at ten. Wash up! I know you haven’t wash up yet.

Baekhyun huffs because he has known her habit by now. He is so ridiculously considerate and observant.

Maybe the dress Kibum unnie gets for her for her birthday could do. It’s colored in pale pink and on the middle of it has blurred flowery patches in white. It’s really pretty and Baekhyun has ever worn it for once.

Her small black sling bag is big enough to fit her phone, purse, lipstick, and the small tube of CC cream.

It’s nine when she is done drying her hair and is applying a thin layer of CC cream. Should she put on the eyeliner? Ah no, Chanyeol says he prefers her goes with natural.

Baekhyun skips down the stairs, the pink dress bounces and she greets her mother.

“Where are you going in this early morning of Saturday, Baekhyun? And being this pretty?”

“Well,” she fiddles with the fork, “I’m going to Chanyeol’s house today.”

“Oh?” There’s a twinkle in her mother’s eyes, “When are you going to invite him into our house? He’s been coming back and forth but I have never seen him with my own eyes in direct.”

Baekhyun hums. “Maybe... next Saturday?”

“Great! I will tell your dad!”

“Mom, why are you telling dad?” She whines because her father could be very, very protective.

“This is his house and I should tell him that another male will be coming!”

Baekhyun sighs in defeat as she stuffs the cereal into her mouth.

Her phone beeps though, a short message from Kyungsoo.

Baekhyun, can I call you?

Yes.

The ringtone rings melodiously and her mom follows the tune with her humming before Baekhyun answers the call.

“Kyungsoo? What’s wrong?”

“I... I’m so nervous, Baekhyun. Sehun is taking me out for a movie date and... and the only available movie now is horror and,” she sniffs.

Oh poor Kyungsoo, she is so damn afraid with horror, Baekhyun thinks.

“Why don’t you tell him? Where are you right now?”

“I’m in the restroom... And he is so considerate because he lets me choose on where to go for the previous three dates. I can’t be selfish!” Kyungsoo shrieks, sniffling as she sounds in the edge of crying.

“Okay, calm down. Tell him you are afraid and that you don’t like horror. He will understand that if he were a gentleman.”

“O-Okay...”

“And don’t cry, Kyungsoo. Your eyes will be swollen and your nose will be so red.” Baekhyun whispers softly.

Kyungsoo lets out a breathless laugh as she mutters another soft okay before hanging up.

Baekhyun sighs as she smiles amusedly. Kyungsoo is too cute for her own good. She is so soft and tender and Baekhyun could only hope Sehun wouldn’t end up being a jerk because she likes him already.

Her phone beeps again and it’s a message from Chanyeol this time.

I’m picking you up now.

Baekhyun shoves the remaining of her cereal down and dabs her lips softly before skipping to the living room and prays to God so that she won’t end up embarrassing herself.

“You will be okay.” Her mother’s voice says beside her and Baekhyun looks up at the old woman.

“I was also like this when I was about to meet your grandma. Your dad said your grandma was so hard to flatter and all that and I was so nervous. But she liked me as soon as I greeted her.”

She then moves back to the kitchen to grab a container box full of cakes.

“Please give this to his mother. Don’t ask why, I just feel like making this and I want to share this to people.”

Baekhyun nods, feeling too nervous to even think about anything else.

A honk is heard from the outside and Baekhyun walks towards the door, putting on a pair of her brown flat shoes before opening the door.

“Good luck, darling.” Her mother says with a smile.

Baekhyun waves to her before she makes her way to the passenger seat. Chanyeol’s smiling face greets her as soon as she gets inside and she feels her nervousness is gone in an instant.

“Hi, Baekhyun. You are even more prettier today.”

Baekhyun grins at him and pecks his cheek softly before putting on the seat belt.

“Are you ready?”

She sighs.

“As ready as I could ever be.”

“Let’s go then. My mom’s so giddy and impatient. She can’t wait to meet you.” Chanyeol grins at her.

The drive is silent and Baekhyun absentmindedly plays with her hair which she curls a bit for today’s occasion.

They stop in front of a modern house with a medium-sized flower garden at the front with the stony path connecting from the gate towards the house’s main door.

Baekhyun grips onto the seat belt as if her life depended on it.

“Baekhyun, look at me.” Chanyeol calls and she looks up at him.

He gently cups her face with his big palms and runs his thumbs on the apples of her cheeks.

“You don’t have to worry about anything. She is sweet and she is dying to meet you. Just be yourself and relax.”

Baekhyun nods and closes her eyes when Chanyeol gives her a soft kiss on both of her eyelids.

“Let’s go.”



“My, my! She is so pretty!” Chanyeol’s mother exclaims as soon as Baekhyun steps her feet into the house.

“H-Hello, Mrs. Park.”

“Come in, come in! Let’s have a chat inside!” She says with a wide smile and she grabs Baekhyun by her wrist to gently guide her into the house.

Baekhyun could hear her own heartbeats thudding so loudly against her ribcage and she could only pray that the woman wouldn’t be able hear it.

They settle down on the light brown colored couch which is so comfy and Baekhyun would be cuddling to it if not for the woman of the house.

“Your name’s Baekhyun, right?” She asks with such a motherly tone while caressing her head gently.

Baekhyun pulls a nervous smile and nods at her question.

“My Chanyeol is so lucky to find someone like you. You are so pretty, Baekhyun.”

Chanyeol clears his throat before he sits down beside Baekhyun and she is relieved because he doesn’t leave her alone with his mother. She feels like throwing up from all the nervousness.

“Mom,”

“You silly kid. What are you waiting for, why would you make this old woman waits for so long just to meet this pretty girl?” His mother scolds him lightly while holding onto both of Baekhyun’s cold hands.

Chanyeol grins. “You are not old yet, Mom. Your hair is still perfectly in the black state.”

“You silly boy,” the woman says with an amused smile before she turns her attention back to Baekhyun again.

“Are you hungry, dear? I could prepare something for you before lunch time.”

Shaking her head quickly, Baekhyun refuses the offer in guilt, “No, no, it’s fine! I have cereals just now, you don’t have to do that, Mrs. Park!”

The woman makes a disagreement sound.

“Cereals? You are too skinny, dear. You should eat more. Tell me if Chanyeol starved you, okay?”

“Yes.” Baekhyun pulls a relaxed smile on her lips as she thinks Chanyeol’s mother seems to like her.

“Now, now. I’m sure Chanyeol would like to show you his room because I have never seen him being so diligent of tidying up his room before. Go and look around while I prepare the lunch.” She smiles warmly before standing up and walking towards where Baekhyun thinks the kitchen’s at.

A relieved sigh leaves her as soon as the woman is out of sight and she feels Chanyeol’s warmth pressing close to her back.

“You okay?” He asks and she can hear the smile in his voice.

“I’m sweating a bucket.” Baekhyun whispers as she leans back against him.

He chuckles and the vibration runs through his chest before he gently tugs her up from the couch.

“Let’s go up. You should give me an inspection on how good my room is.”

It makes a smile curls on her lips and she finds herself climbing up the stairs with Chanyeol leading her.

“This is my room.” He says as they stop at the last room in the hallway, the farthest one from the stairs.

“Oh, wow.” Baekhyun breathes because it’s only her second time entering a guy’s room. Her parents’ room doesn’t count and the first one is Jonghyun oppa’s room, her sister’s fiancé.

It’s the typical room of guys. With bands posters are coloring the wall, the dull colors of black, grey, and blue, and a desk containing the complete set of gaming computers.

“It’s... surprisingly nice.” She comments.

Chanyeol walks up to her and stands right in front of her with a smile.

“How many points would you give me?”

“Maybe... ninety?”

“Oh, so high already? Do you like me that much?” Chanyeol asks teasingly.

Baekhyun steps close to him and presses her face to his chest while muttering, “Yeah, I like you that much.”

She can feel Chanyeol is being surprised again because she becomes bolder in starting a skin ship with him. This is the first time they are having such a wide contact but Baekhyun can’t help it. She is dying to hug him.

He looks comfortable to cuddle on.

“Is this okay, Baekhyun?” He asks softly, slowly putting his arms around her.

“Yeah. I want you to hug me.” She admits.

Chanyeol brings her close, his arms tightening on each seconds around her until all Baekhyun could feel is his warmth enveloping her.

“You don’t know how much this means to me.” He whispers against the crown of her head, followed by a kiss being pressed against the same spot.

Baekhyun’s heart does a jump and she blushes.

“You like this?” She questions with a soft voice.

Chanyeol wraps her tighter before whispering, “I love this.” His heart is beating so fast that Baekhyun could hear it so clearly.

It’s overwhelming. Baekhyun could feel her face burns in embarrassment but she likes whatever she is feeling right now. It feels like she belongs to the right place.

“You should be showing me around.” She blurts so suddenly, unable to take this cheesy silence again.

He gives her a firm squeeze before releasing her and slowly but steadily tracing his hand down her arm until their palms meet each other. Baekhyun feels giddy as Chanyeol ever so gently holds onto her hand.

They have never held hand officially, just subtle touches in times. Baekhyun hooks their elbows together a few times and Chanyeol holds onto her arms on some occasions but never have they held hands this tight.

“Is this okay?” He asks gently, running his thumb over the skin on her hand.

Baekhyun stares at their hands together before smiling and she whispers, “Yeah.”



“Do you like it, dear?” Chanyeol’s mother asks her with a smile while watching her eating the food she is cooked.

Baekhyun nods eagerly, “This is really good, Mrs. Park! I really like this.”

“Oh I’m happy to hear that. There, there, eat a lot!” She says, putting more food into her bowl. Baekhyun gives her a wide smile.

Chanyeol is eating silently beside her, just simply watching the interaction between Baekhyun and his mother. He is just really glad that his mother likes Baekhyun this much.

“Oh!” Baekhyun exclaims suddenly, stopping the two Parks from eating any further.

“I forget the gift from my mom! I left it in the car!” She makes a move to stand up but Chanyeol stops her by holding her firmly.

“I will get it. You can continue eating, Baekhyun.”

“Alright,” she mutters, feeling a bit guilty to stop Chanyeol from eating his lunch because of her forgetfulness.

“It’s okay,” Mrs. Park says, “just let Chanyeol gets it.”

He comes back with a box in his hands and Baekhyun takes it thankfully from him.

“Here, Mrs. Park, my mom tells me to give this to you. I know it’s not much but it’s just something small my mom wants to gift you. She is really great in making these three-layered cakes.”

The look on the elder’s eyes is shining and she gratefully accepts it.

“Oh... thank you so much. You don’t have to do this but I will accept this. I’m really thankful.” She says as she runs a gentle caress on Baekhyun’s cheek.

“It feels like a gift from the in-law.” The elder says again with a laugh, making Baekhyun freezes and Chanyeol chokes on the rice he is having in his mouth.

“Mom!” He calls in disbelief.

The elder chuckles and glances in between the two youngsters.

“Oh sorry. Too fast for this kind of conversation, yeah?”

Baekhyun bends her head down, unable to stare at Chanyeol in the eyes. The rest of the lunch passes in a blink of an eye and without she notices, she is already saying goodbye to the elder.

“Thank you so much for having me today.” Baekhyun says for the third time as she keeps on bowing again and again.

The mother coos at her and tells her to stop bowing or she will hurt her back. She pulls the young girl into her arms and hugs her tight.

“I’m really happy to be able to meet you, Baekhyun dear. I hope my son treats you well or I’m so going to hit him.” She mutters gently.

Baekhyun lets out a soft giggle as she glances at Chanyeol who is frowning at what his mother has just said.

“Stop brainwashing her, Mom.” He huffs.

The elder slaps him on his arm and Chanyeol hisses in pain.

The goodbye greeting takes a few more minutes before Baekhyun finally sits down in Chanyeol’s car and sighing in content.

“Tired?” He asks her while turning the engine on.

She shakes her head and smiles.

“I’m happy it turns out well.” She whispers.

Chanyeol grins, “Of course. I tell you she is going to like you. You worry over nothing.”

He drives the car further from his house and halfway towards her house, he hesitates for a moment.

“Baekhyun, do you still have time for a while?”

“Yeah? What’s wrong?” She asks back, turning to stare at him.

“Do you want to go somewhere with me, just for a while?”

Baekhyun nods in confusion as she watches Chanyeol makes a U-turn.



The car stops and Baekhyun scrambles down from the car, amazed by the view she is seeing right now.

Chanyeol brings them to the hill where Baekhyun could see wide ground, covered in green grasses making it resembling grassland.

“This is amazing!” She wows at the sight.

Chanyeol comes to stand beside her and he locks his gaze on her.

“Yeah.”

“Why are we here, by the way?” Baekhyun asks as she turns to him.

He looks a bit nervous and he glances away from her questioning eyes, even only for a while, before he seems like to regain his composure back and he stares straightly into her eyes.

“Hey, Baekhyun. There’s something I need to say to you.” He starts softly and Baekhyun nods to him, urging him to continue as the breeze softly blows, making her hair bounces away from her shoulder.

Chanyeol looks down for a second to find her hand and grips onto it gently at first and then he gives it a firm squeeze.

“I’m not really sure how you feel by now but I don’t think I can wait any longer. We have been going out for like, more than a month and when I tell you that I’m serious about this, I mean it.”

Baekhyun could feel how her heart starts to beat uncontrollably as she can predict where this is going.

“A-And then?” She croaks, voice softly cracking in the end of her words.

Chanyeol grips onto her hand so tightly that she would definitely feel hurt but she is not on her right mind now so it feels more like comforting than hurting.

“I really... really like you a lot, Baekhyun. Do you want to be my girlfriend?”

Boom. Baekhyun hears the question she’s been dying to hear.

To say she is surprised is an understatement. She is utterly shocked and this is clearly the moment she has been waiting for ever since she realizes that she likes Chanyeol too.

Chanyeol’s hand is gripping onto hers but she feels his fingers are trembling. It’s cute and completely heartwarming that he is just as nervous as she is.

He is holding her gaze so strongly that Baekhyun couldn’t look away from him. It’s like he is conveying his honesty through that simple eye contact and let Baekhyun tells you that she knows. She can see it. Chanyeol is freaking serious about this relationship.



And who is she to deny someone as precious and as sweet as Park Chanyeol?



“I do.”

Her voice is too soft in her opinion because she is freaking nervous and it feels like her whole body is trembling from her head to her toes.

But Chanyeol hears her. He would always hear her.



The smile blooming on Chanyeol’s nervous face is so pretty that Baekhyun almost lets out an ugly sob but she holds it back in.

“You do?” He sounds breathless.

Baekhyun nods. She forces herself to smile because she is so damn nervous but she has to make it sure that yes, she wants to be his girlfriend.

Chanyeol tugs her closer, his smile getting wider on each second.

“You really do?” He sounds more teasing now and Baekhyun couldn’t really get mad at him.

“I really do.”She whispers, now the smile is more relaxed because he is grinning that silly grin of his.

He lifts her hands up and kisses each of her fingers.

“Oh God. I think I’m going to die.” Chanyeol mutters against her palm.

Baekhyun lets out a soft chuckle as she twists her wrists a bit to cup his jaws gently.

“Don’t die yet. I’ve just gotten a boyfriend no less than five minutes.”

The sentence makes Chanyeol grins and then he laughs whole heartedly, sounding so relieved and happy. Baekhyun couldn’t help but to laugh with him.

They laugh for a good minute before Chanyeol pulls her into his arms and hugs her tight.

“I’m so happy. You don’t know what you do to me, Baekhyun.” He says against her shoulder.

Baekhyun smiles and grips onto the back of his shirt with her tiny fists.

“I know. I make you happy. You just say so.”

He laughs and presses a quick kiss onto her cheek.

“I can do this more often now, don’t I?” He jokes.

Baekhyun huffs and she pinches his waist, “Don’t push your luck.”

They hug for a more while as Baekhyun gets used to the term of being in a relationship with someone. She is no longer single now.

The day ends with them smiling like two idiots and innocent kisses on the cheeks.



Baekhyun couldn’t contain her happiness and as soon as she gets into her room, she grabs a pillow and screams into it.

Her mother’s doing laundry and her father is still out, so she doesn’t need to worry about someone to hear her.

She grabs her phone, just to distract herself from killing her poor stuffed bunny.

With trembling and excited fingers, Baekhyun types out:

Bee: hey girls

Bee: im someone’s girlfriend now

Yes, she is Chanyeol’s girlfriend now. Oh how perfect that sounds.
