"What the fuck, Baekhyun?" Kyungsoo unbelievably said, massaging his temples. "Do you guys really have to reach this point of breaking up? Like hello? You hid this from Sehun and you guys will just end up like this?"

"Kyungsoo, it's not the same anymore," Baekhyun already recovered his usual self though his lip is kinda hurt because of the aggressive kiss a while ago.

"Not the same my ass. If you love each other, fight for it! Don't fucking break up and then both of you will end up being drunktards in different bars here in Seoul! I really really hate dramas!" Kyungsoo fished for his phone and dialed Jongin's number, putting the call in the loud speaker. "Hello Jongin?"

"Kyungie hyung? Why did you called?" Disgust crossed the three's faces when they heard how Jongin's calls Kyungsoo.

"Please stop using that name again, Jongin. I-it's disgusting!" Kyungsoo tried to maintain his usual composure but Chanyeol and Baekhyun finds it so funny of him.

"Eh? I thought you like it? You even said to me last night that you wanted to change your name to Kyungie already."

"Fuck, Jongin. You're making me embarrassed!" Kyungsoo rolled his eyes on both Chanyeol and Baekhyun because of their toothy grins. "Anyway, what are you guys doing there?"

"Sehun and I are playing video games while Jongdae and Luhan hyung are cooking some snacks for us. Where are you? Did you saw Chanyeol and Baekhyun hyung?"

"I-I'm with them. We're on our way back there," Kyungsoo promised to himself that the thing going on between Chanyeol and Baekhyun will be his first and last secret to Jongin because secrets are the ones ruining every relationships. "You love me, right?"

"Of course. I love you so much, Kyungie hyung," they heard a loud noise and it looks like Sehun hits Jongin with the console on his head. "Kyungie hyung! Sehun's hurting me!"

"It's because I'm not used of Jongin being a sweet talker! I'm sorry, hyung!" Sehun said.

"Okay, okay. One more question Jongin," Kyungsoo eyed both Chanyeol and Baekhyun. "Are we going to end our relationship without even hearing each other sides when we had a fight?"

"Of course no! I'll hear you first and try to understand you. Breaking up will never be the best solution to every relationship problems."

Kyungsoo placed his hands on the speaker as he mocked the two. "See? Jongin is younger than both of you yet you guys can't think maturely like him. Just wait there, I still have one thing to ask him and for you guys to realize," Kyungsoo removed his palm on the speaker and checked if Jongin's still on the line first. "One last question again. What if I challenge you to end our relationship, what will you do?"

"Why would you do that in the first place? You said you love me, right? And that's not a joke, right? But even if you've made up your mind on breaking up with me, I'll still try to change your mind because you ought to me that you love me. I've seen it into your eyes. Eyes can lie but in your state, I know you're afraid of being hurt so you're not going to hurt me. I'm sure of that."

"Fuck, Jongin. I love you so much. Thank you!" Before Jongin could utter another reply, Kyungsoo already ended the call. "So, any realizations, Baekhyun? Chanyeol?"

"Kyungsoo, we have different situations. Ours is what's really happening right now. And your example to Jongin is just a product of your imaginations," Baekhyun sighed in exasperation.

"But Jongin is right. When those three words, eight letters escaped from your mouth, you meant it through thickness and thin," Chanyeol counter fight to which Kyungsoo nodded.

"Don't talk about that when it's you the first to break the promise, Chanyeol," Baekhyun rolled his eyes in annoyance.

"It's because you never hear out for his explanations, Baekhyun," when the midget one is about to open his mouth for a defense, Kyungsoo shuts him. "Baekhyun, stop. Just hear Chanyeol out and then that's your cue to make decisions. Okay?"

"Fine. . ."

"Now, Chanyeol, it's your time to speak. Tell him everything, okay?" And then Chanyeol smiled, with a hope.

"First of all, I'm sorry for being a jerk to you, Baekhyunnie. I know my faults. I should've not let my emotions control me. I miss you so much that's why I've been an immature and jealous boyfriend."

"Jealous? Why? I am not even flirting with any of our friends!" Kyungsoo stopped Baekhyun from cutting Chanyeol's explanation.

"I'm jealous of my brother. He can hug you everywhere and every time, while I can't. He's with you while I'm away. Even if he didn't confessed yet, I already saw it coming. That he will fall for you but I disregarded that fact because we love each other. I was mad at you when I offered to tell Sehun about our relationship and you wanted to delay it. I thought you are confused as well. I thought you are developing a romantic feeling towards him."

"I'm sorry for not contacting you for weeks. The seminar ended as soon as possible because I'm doing it almost twenty four hours a day. I was about to go home when I received an offer, and that's the movie we filmed. I accepted it without asking for your permission. I signed the contract and of course, I'm mad at you, I disregarded our relationship. It's written on the contract that we're not allowed to be involved into romantic relationships while the movie hasn't screened yet."

"Director Wang confiscated our phones. I never knew he used my Instagram app until Luhan told me. Those pictures on my account weren't posted by me. It's Director Wang the one posting those since we need to promote the movie. I tried begging on him to let me have a break when I heard that Sehun is missing and you ran away from the mansion but he used the contract I've signed to blackmail me. I'm really sorry."

"I tried my very best to act as great as I can to shorten the filming days and I successfully did it. MabelㅡI mean Shanshanㅡshe confessed that she likes me but I turned her down. I told her about our relationship and she was shocked. I said I'm not scared of the repercussions of my actions anymore, because I really can't afford to lose you, Baekhyunnie. If you have questions, just tell me. I'm willing to answer it wholeheartedly and honestly."

Baekhyun ducks his head. All throughout Chanyeol's confession, he's just crying. It's him the one not trusting Chanyeol's love for him. All this time, it's been Baekhyun on the top of Chanyeol's mind. "T-the kissing scene. . ."

"What about that?"

"He wanted you to know that you did good on the kissing scene! And it seems like you love it since you filmed it just once! Ugh! Stop blurting out words that will puzzle the both you! It's making my head hurt!" Kyungsoo nagged but on his insides, he feels so happy because he wanted Baekhyun and Chanyeol for each one, they needed each other. In short, he's a ChanBaek shipper.

"Believe me when I say I'm thinking it's you the one I'm kissing that time," Chanyeol's eyes twitches. "It may sound perverted but I just miss you a big time, Baekhyunnie. I'm sorry for being a jerk. I will understand if it will take you days to make up your mind but please, just don't break up with me."

"I won't anymore," a short smile crossed Baekhyun's face but he quickly hid it. "But you have to work hard to gain my trust once again."

"I'll do everything just to have you back in my arms again, Baekhyunnie," Chanyeol's authentic smile was finally seen on his face.

Kyungsoo turned his back on the two just to hide his reddish cheeks. "Fuck. Since when did I became like this?"

"Okay. . ." Baekhyun averted his gaze, trying to avoid Chanyeol's warm eyes.

"Can I hug you?" Chanyeol asked and then Baekhyun nodded. "I miss your warmth so much, baby. I love you, I really do."

The hug was broken when Kyungsoo started stomping his feet. "So, when are we going back to the house? I'm already losing my patience here," Chanyeol and Baekhyun sheepishly smiled to each other. Chanyeol was about to hold Baekhyun's hands when Kyungsoo smacked it. "No skin contacts, Chanyeol."

"But why?!"

"That's the ground rule for the both of you. I want you both to reconcile and give each other enough space to think. Are we clear on that?" They both nodded, Kyungsoo started walking but Chanyeol and Baekhyun are both left behind.

"Since when did you became close to Kyungsoo, huh?" The giant asked the midget one low enough for Kyungsoo not to hear it.

"I don't know really," Baekhyun chuckled. "One day, he just suddenly become concerned and protective of me."

"That's good to hear," Chanyeol smiled to his lover. "But I l'm starting to hate him now since he's building unseen barriers between ourselves."

"Yeah, right."

"Gossip about me more and I'm going to punch you both," both of them were taken aback when they saw Kyungsoo stopped from his pace. Looking like a mad father who caught his daughter dating somebody else. "Just please, do what I asked you to do. It's for the both of you, trust me."

"We trust you," Chanyeol and Baekhyun said in unison.

"And please. . ." Kyungsoo sighed. "Try not to eye fuck each other when Sehun is around. He hasn't recovered yet from the pain."

"Hello?" Dr. Kim asked while reading the pile of papers in front of his desk.

"Hi, Minseok hyung!"

"Ah! Jongdae? What made you call?" Minseok groaned when Junmyeon nudged him with his elbow. "Shhh!"

"Are you shooing me? I haven't talked to you that long yet. Am I disturbing your work?"

"No. My friend is the one causing me disturbance," Dr. Kim chuckled. "Anyway, what's the matter? Any of your friends been sick?"

"None of then actually. It's me who's sick," Jongdae faked couple of coughing. "Could you please come over here at Seoul to check on me?"

"Are you really sick or you're just playing around?" Dr. Kim grinned, closing the folder containing the papers he's signing. "I won't travel hours from Bucheon to Seoul just to aid a pretending-to-be-sick person."

"I'm just kidding," Jongdae chuckled. "You've been assigned to Bucheon this time?"

"Yeah. I'm always assigned at far places from Seoul. I really miss Seoul so much. How are you?"

"Doing good I guess. We're gathered here at a friend's house because his older brother came back from China," Jongdae explained.

"Really? I hope Seoul is just a walk away so that I can come home there and meet my friend. I haven't saw him for years already," Dr. Kim stood up and left his office, inhaling for the soothing air of Bucheon.

"What's the name of your friend? I'll try to find him and tell him that you misses him so bad!"

"Nah. It's impossible. Seoul is big. You can't find him," Dr. Kim kicked the stone towards the nearby river. "By the way, I still have a pending dinner with you and your friends, right? When will it happen though?"

"Oh yeah! About that! Would you mind if I ask you out? For a friendly dinner?"

"Sure, why not?"

"I thought you will decline it since you're a busy person but I'm glad you granted my wish, Minseok hyung!"

"I'm not that busy nowadays since my co doctorㅡJunmyeonㅡis with me here at Bucheon. So, when will it happen? Or will it really happen this time?"

"It's your call! I can always cancel my appointments just to have a friendly dinner with you! And yes! It will happen this time because it's only the two of us joining the dinner!" And with that, Dr. Kim didn't returned to his office anymore that day since he felt his cheeks burning the whole day.
