"Stay away from me." Exclaimed the doe-eyed guy, who's currently blushing red as a fresh tomato.

Kyungsoo hid his face from embarrassment, because Jongin's being sweet as hell to him. But there's one thing he doubts, has Jongin done this to him only or to everyone? He couldn't stop thinking, given that Jongin's a playboy.

Chanyeol, on the other hand, let out a laugh seeing the two teasing each other and being sweet for just once. He held his phone on his right hand, relying a message to Baekhyun. He smiles as he types a sweet message to his boyfriend, until a familiar voice of a lady calls out to him.

Kyungsoo almost jump out his seat when he sensed when he heard the familiar ear-piercing voice of Dara calling the giant from the window. If only he could grab his seat and strike it to Dara's face.

"That bitch." He angrily whispered. "Is she a stalker or what? She always creeps to that window while calling out Chanyeol's name."

The 'oh-so-ever-kind-flirt-Jongin' suddenly butted in. "Don't be like that, Soo."

Kyungsoo glared at him. "You too," as if he wants to throw fireballs on Jongin's face. "Stay away or perish on my hands." He threatens.

"There we go again." Jongin worriedly said. "What did I ever do to you? We were just fine yesterday!" Kyungsoo was just about to create a war with Jongin, when he sensed Chanyeol jumped out of the window.

He didn't know what reaction to show--Baekhyun just entered the room. Sehun, using his quick thinking, immediately covered the window using his tall figure in order for Baekhyun not to see what just happened.

He smiled, calling out the latter's name. "Oh Sehun!" The whole class eyed him, whispering and gossiping rumours.

"That's probably Baekhyun."

"Tss, Dara's still prettier than him."

"Looking at him, makes me think Chanyeol's cheating on him."

"Chanyeol looks good together with Dara, not with him."

Since both parties accepted their relationship, Baekhyun and Chanyeol had a bit of expectation from the public that they will also agree to their man-to-man relationship.

Baekhyun heard everything--those whisperings, he doesn't know whether he has the rights to call them whispers because he could hear every little bits of it. The looks they throw at him, you wouldn't know if it contains pity, mock and variety of emotions.

On the other side, Jongin and Kyungsoo also heard the gossips of the people around them. Jongin shoved his shoulders against Kyungsoo, passing him a message. "Get Baekhyun out of here. I'll take care of these cunts." Said Jongin, showering the girls with death stare. Kyungsoo stared for a moment on Jongin's manly face, before collecting himself again.

"Soo!!"

Kyungsoo rolled his eyes. "Coming, alright?" He said, then walking to Baekhyun's direction. Jongin smiled at the thought of Kyungsoo being cute. He had the urge to pinch Kyungsoo's cheeks, but he didn't. Kyungsoo might really stay away from him if he will.

Sehun came running to Baekhyun's side. "Baek---"

When he was about to say something, Baekhyun just cut him off. "Tell your dickheaded friend," Sehun nodded, waiting for Baekhyun to continue. "don't wait for me because I'll be going home earlier than him."

Before walking out, Jongin stood up and smiled at him. First of all, he just kept inside what he really wants to say. He doesn't want to create an argument, because Chanyeol doesn't like it when he argues with other people, especially when it's between the both of them.

He slowly took his steps, walking outside the room, hurt and holding the soldier of tears back. "Baekhyun." Kyungsoo didn't hesitated and instantly hugged his best friend, patting him on his back. Baekhyun couldn't hold back, and just let it out on his best friend's shoulders.

For Baekhyun, crying defines weakness. It's what he hates the most---crying. He appears to be strong, or at least tells himself he's strong and tough as a rock.

"W-why is it like that, Soo?" Kyungsoo, still holding the crying Baekhyun in his arms, slowly walked to the toilet so they could have their privacy.

Kyungsoo locked the toilet, securing it just in case someone goes in. "Does D-Dara and Chanyeol have a relationship, together? H-He said h-he loves me, d-didn't he?" To Baekhyun, it feels like the years he spent with Chanyeol were useless and nothing, now that he doubts the giant's love for him.

Not a single word came out from Kyungsoo. He just tightly hug the smaller, letting him cry as much as he want to. He remembers the time when he was in Baekhyun's shoes. He used to borrow Baekhyun from Chanyeol like every week just to tell him how horrible he feels. Kyungsoo's just returning the favour---as a friend, and he wants to let Baekhyun know how much his actions worry him and mean to him.

Kyungsoo waited until the time Baekhyun calmed down a bit. Then he spoke what his mind tells him to. "Baek, let's not jump into conclusions yet." Patting the smaller's back, he continued. "Maybe, Chanyeol didn't know Dara's intentions towards him, that's why he went to her."

Because of what Kyungsoo advised him, Baekhyun had a second thought about the situation. Maybe Kyungsoo's right. I shouldn't jump into conclusions. I'll let Chanyeol explain his actions later.

*knock knock*

"Remember the scrapbook I made before we celebrated our 1st monthsary?" Baekhyun asked. Kyungsoo nodded even though he can't remember the little handmade scrapbook.

"There's a rules and regulation attached at the back, wasn't there?" Kyungsoo busily bobbed his head, trying to remember the scrapbook. "That means I'll be sleeping at my parents' house today." Still thinking about the scrapbook, Kyungsoo just nodded his head.

*knock knock*

"WAIT WHAT?"

Baekhyun turned around on the mirror, shrugging his shoulder. "Yeah, you heard it right. I'm not going home tonight with Chanyeol."

He then held Kyungsoo's hand, who's currently in the state of deep shock. "Remind him of the scrapbook, especially the rules and regulations. There's no need to ask questions."

*knock knock*

A loud bang on the door was heard, it seems like many people are waiting outside for this door to be open up. The two finally opened the door up, revealing a guy on the line "HURRY UP! CAN'T YOU HEAR US BANGING THE DOOR FOR THE 4TH TIME?!"

Baekhyun didn't hold back and chucked the guy's necktie on his mouth. "You talk too much, are you really a guy?" causing the laughter of the other men lined up behind the guy.

Baekhyun looked at him in disgrace then walked away with Kyungsoo. "That was sassy, wasn't it?" Kyungsoo said, playfully slapping Baekhyun's arm.

"Stop!" Baekhyun exclaimed, holding his arm that Kyungsoo just slapped. "I might get bruises."

"Don't tell me," Kyungsoo hinted. "you're anemic?!"

"Say what? Are you an idiot?" Baekhyun stopped from walking forward and glared at Kyungsoo. "I'm having my period today, okay?" He said, chuckling which made Kyungsoo sigh a relief.

"And when did you have your period, sir?" Kyungsoo held his laughter due to the smaller's face being really serious.

"Just right now. I'm currently stress, okay?" Baekhyun sighed, walking closer to Kyungsoo's assigned classroom.

The moment the two of the saw Chanyeol standing near the classroom door from afar, Baekhyun whispered to Kyungsoo. "I'm s-sorry Kyung, I c-can only go this f-far."

Kyungsoo signalling for Baekhyun to run, "It's alright. You aren't obliged to walk me to my class. Thanks though. Go ahead." Then Baekhyun turned his back to Kyungsoo and made a run for it.

Chanyeol eyed Kyungsoo for a second. "Where did the two----"

"Scrapbook." Kyungsoo muttered between his breaths. Chanyeol's eyebrow furrowed, not knowing what his friend was talking about.

"What scrapbook?"

"You idiot." Chanyeol suddenly felt the need to run away. It looks like he might get another beating from Kyungsoo since his eyebrows just furrowed. "You don't know what a scrapbook is?" Chanyeol has no choice but to choose death. "You're already in your 4th year in college, yet you still don't know what the hell is a scrapbook?"

"Geez, calm down." Kyungsoo pulled out a seat, while Chanyeol stood up infront of him. "I know what a scrapbook is. But, what about it?" Just by seeing Chanyeol's innocent and bewildered face, he wants to kick him on his nuts.

I didn't know Chanyeol could be this clueless and dumb. Whispered Kyungsoo. "Figure it out yourself. Baekhyun didn't inform me that he has a dumb boyfriend. Besides, don't wait for him. He said he'll be going home early." Chanyeol was about to argue something in, but the professor came walking in, shutting him up.

When the professor faced the board, Kyungsoo poked Chanyeol's back and whispered. "Baekhyun said scrapbook, rules & regulation. Don't ask me why. Neither do I know."

Badtrip. Chanyeol muttered to himself as remembers the scrapbook and the informations inside it.
