Chapter Seven
Baekhyun was surprised upon seeing Sehun sitting on his own bed. He thought he entered the wrong room and ended up checking the name written on the door. It clearly says his nameㅡB A E K H Y U N.
"Uhm, this is not your room?" Baekhyun can't hide the disappointment with his voice. He knew that his relationship with Sehun is still a bit rocky but he has still convinced himself that somehow, Sehun will set aside their conflict and will greet him a happy birthday. Sadly, he did not.
It's already past twelve in the evening when they arrived at Park mansion. He's half happy and half sad with what happened during his birthday. Sure, he's happy with what Chanyeol did a while ago. Who wouldn't right? The person you didn't expect to know how important yesterday to you, was the only person who greeted you a happy birthday. For the first time on his lifetime, Baekhyun felt those butterflies in your stomach he has red on different fictions before. That's a fleeting feeling to the point that it'll make you feel like you're in a cloud nine. It's just precious and unexplainable but with the thought of Sehun forgetting his birthday ruins his good mood. Expectation sucks. It really damn hurts.
Sehun stood up and walked himself at Baekhyun's direction completely ignoring the midget's question. His gaze fell on Baekhyun's milky neck. Hanging on there is a piece of silver necklace with letter pendants BBH it may look like a plain jewelry on someone's eye but he knew this was his hyung's gift for Baekhyun. "Wow! Chanyeol hyung must've gave this to you, eh? It suits you," Baekhyun was about to smile when he felt Sehun harshly grabbed the jewelry on his neck making it split into two pieces. "But I have something better than this."
Baekhyun cannot utter a word. He's just looking at the jewelry Chanyeol gave himㅡit's broken. It's the first time he received a birthday gift from a person not blood-related with him. He felt like he didn't took a good care of Chanyeol's gift. He felt like he has committed a sin, again. He flinched when he felt some thing kissed his bare neck. It's obviously a necklace, again. But this time it has a different pendantㅡa SEBAEK letter pendant.
"Suits you very well," Sehun said looking at the midget one with completely satisfied look as he threw the necklace Chanyeol gave to the nearest trash bin.
"C-Chanyeol," both of them were taken aback with what Baekhyun muttered. His eyes are starting to water as he intently look on the trash bin wherein Sehun threw Chanyeol's gift.
"What the?" Sehun's eyebrows flickered when Baekhyun scooted himself near the bin, he's looking for the necklace. He doesn't mind about those viruses he can get from the trashes inside the bin. He just wants the necklace to be back on his care. "Why do you have to find it again? The necklace I gave you is more expensive and elegant compared to what my hyung gave to you," but Baekhyun didn't even spared Sehun a glance. He kept on cleaning the dirtied necklace with the hem of his shirt.
"Baekhyun! Talk to me!" Sehun was shocked when Baekhyun dodge him while looking at him with a deadly stare. If only looks could kill.
"Get out of my room," Baekhyun calmly ordered but Sehun didn't budge. "I. Said. Get. Out. Of. My. Room."
"Who are you to order me thingsㅡ"
Baekhyun smirked. "ㅡme? I'm just your best friend way back then and now? I'm just a servant of your family but I believe that you don't have the rights to ruin things with sentimental values for me just because you are being a brat again. I can't withstand your evil character anymore! My Hunnie is dead!"
"What's happening?" Chanyeol is quick to arrive at Baekhyun's room when he heard loud noises as he entered the mansion. He was shocked to see an angry Baekhyun and his brother's pale face color. "I'm asking, what's happening?" Chanyeol repeated as he take a step closer at Sehun and Baekhyun's direction. "Why are you shouting?" He asked Baekhyun. "And why do you look so nervous?" Referring to his younger brother.
"H-hyung," Chanyeol knew Sehun. His younger brother won't stutter unless he did something against his orders.
"What have you done this time, Park Sehun?" And that hits a nerve. Chanyeol won't address his younger brother with his full name unless he's mad.
"H-hyung, I-I didn'tㅡ"
"ㅡI broke the necklace you gave me. I'm sorry," Park brothers both looked at Baekhyun with both shocked expressions.
"W-what did you just say?" Chanyeol can't believe what he heard a while ago. "Y-you broke it? It hasn't lasted for 24 hours yet?"
"I'm sorry. Really, Young Master Chanyeol," Baekhyun left the scene and walked himself out of the mansion just to breathe fresh air.
Now, it's just the Park brothers left inside Baekhyun's room. Chanyeol still can't believe that Baekhyun broke his gift. Sehun still can't believe that after what he did, Baekhyun still saved him from the danger it might cause him. Angry Chanyeol is the least thing Sehun wanted to happen. Just no.
"Sehun. . ." Chanyeol closed his eyes, feeling tired with his errands today added to it is the fact that Baekhyun didn't took care of his gift. "I don't believe that Baekhyun broke the necklace. What did you do this time?"
"I-I haven't done anything!" But his eyes clearly says he's lying. Chanyeol can read his brothers expressions by the color of his eyes. Sehun's eyes are blue when he's lying. It's not really glowing blue but only Chanyeol can see that since he's his brother. Same blood and genes are inside their bodies.
"You dared to lie at me, Sehun. If I were you, I'mㅡ"
"ㅡfine, fine!" Sehun sighed as a sign of defeat, he can't win against his brother, as always. "I broke the necklace you gave. I-I w-was j-jealous."
Chanyeol's forehead creased. "Jealous of what? Don't tell me you're jealous because I gave him a gift? It's because it's his birthday, you prick!" He knocked his brother's head lightly.
"Aysh! It's not about the gift, hyung!" He massaged the part wherein his hyung knocked him, it hurts a bit.
"Then what is it all about?"
"It's because Baek-hyung isn't hanging around with me anymore," Sehun said those words in the lowest tone of his voice but it didn't escaped his hyung's big ears.
"What a jerk," Chanyeol face-palmed, but there's a part of him that felt triggered. He knew Sehun still can't figure it out but Chanyeol already calculated it. Sehun will end up liking Baekhyun, too.
"I know. No need to emphasize," Chanyeol stayed in silence. Thinking about his next words. He might blurt out that he has some hots for Baekhyun and that might hurt his brother. Sehun is the only relative left to him and the last thing he want to happen is his brother getting hurt most especially when he is the reason behind that.
"I will talk to Baekhyun," Chanyeol said and Sehun lifted up his head. "I-I will explain things to him. Just promise me one thing."
"What is it? What is it, hyung?" Sehun said as he continued tugging the hem of Chanyeol's long coat.
"Just promise me you won't hurt and ignore him anymore."

It's been snowing since last month and Baekhyun still hasn't arrive. Chanyeol is obviously damn worried for him since he didn't brought a coat when he left the mansion.
"Hyung, you must go inside. Look at your lips. It's turning violet and you're shivering. So bad."
"Don't mind me. You have to sleep now. You still have classes to attend tomorrow, right?" Sehun nodded while handing his hyung a cup of hot chocolate. "Thank you."
"Hyung, I should be the one waiting for him, not you. I know you are tired. Please, take a rest now."
"It's my day-off tomorrow, though," there are two reasons why Chanyeol can still withstand the cool breeze outside. First is: he's really waiting for Baekhyun. Second is: he's contemplating with his plans. He likes Baekhyun so much but there's no way that he will hurt his brother by flirting with him.
"Oh, okay. But please, don't catch colds, okay?" Chanyeol nodded and then Sehun left. He smiled when he saw the mug where his brother poured the hot chocolate. It is his favorite mug with a design of Rilakkuma's face.
"What do you think is the best thing I can do? Hurt my brother or hurt myself?" He know he looks so dumb just by talking with the lifeless mug but who cares? He clearly has no one to talk with right now. "I don't want to hurt my brother. I've always wanted the best for him. I'd rather be hurt than see him hurting. I'd rather suffer spending my whole day reading different reports than see him struggling on finding his foods. I'd rather let go of my feelings than share someone with him," he paused a bit as he looked up at the starry sky.
"But this is the first time I fell in love with someone. I know he is the one, I know Baekhyun is the guy whom I want to spend lifetime with."
