Baekhyun found Chanyeol lounging beside the pool without a shirt with his eyes closed, as if taking a nap; the sight was heavenly. Baekhyun laughed to himself as he gently tossed his backpack into a corner before he grabbed the hem of his shirt and began to pull it over his head. He tossed that away too before carefully crouching down beside Chanyeol.

He didn't say anything —- neither of them did; Chanyeol didn't even open his eyes. Baekhyun just sat there quietly as he meticulously burned every little detail of Chanyeol into his mind. Once he had memorized every contour he tentatively reached his hand out. He lightly traced the features of his face, his hands dancing across his skin before slowly gliding down to trace his chest.

Baekhyun's fingertips painted swirls around Chanyeol's pecks, his eyes wide as he didn't want to miss a single detail. Like the way Chanyeol's nipples gradually hardened beneath Baekhyun's touch; like the way his lips parted as his breathing increased as his arousal grew; like the way he was so obviously struggling not to moan.

Baekhyun's own arousal had started to grow as well as he lifted a leg over Chanyeol's waist to straddle his lap. Chanyeol's eyes stayed closed as Baekhyun took it upon himself to kiss him. His hands skimming along the length of his sides as he kissed a path down his chest to his navel. Baekhyun's breathing came in short bursts as he stuffed his monster into a box under lock and chain. It still didn't help, he still kissed Chanyeol's abdomen slowly and sensually; he still ran his tongue up the strip of skin just above his navel; his hands still teased at the zip of his pants as he slowly worked to—-

Then suddenly Baekhyun was flying threw the air before he landed with a loud splash into the pool. He came up sputtering and wiped the water from his face as he stared open-mouthed at Chanyeol. Who was sitting the picture of innocence as if just seconds ago he hadn't thrown his boyfriend into the pool all to delay the inevitable.

"Is the water warm?" Chanyeol asked with a teasing grin.

Baekhyun's eyes narrowed and he smacked the water to splash him before struggling to walk towards the edge. When he got close enough, he ducked his head under and swam the rest of the way before coming up with a mouthful of water that he didn't hesitate to spit into Chanyeol's face.

"That's for throwing me in!" Baekhyun cried.

Chanyeol grimaced and flicked it off, and then Baekhyun noticed the playful glint enter his eyes before he jumped in. Baekhyun shrieked and dived to avoid any impact.

Chanyeol came up laughing, followed a second after by Baekhyun. He huffed and snapped his arm out as he punched Chanyeol's arm. "Ow!" Chanyeol laughed. "Don't be violent!"

"Then don't throw me in the pool!"

"Then don't try to give me a blow-job beside the pool!" Chanyeol retorted.

Baekhyun huffed and crossed his arms as he grumbled, "Shut up! You would have loved it...."

Chanyeol just chuckled and rolled his eyes. He sighed before laying his body back into the water to float. Baekhyun sighed too before diving beneath.

They swam around for about an hour before Chanyeol got too tired and had to rest. He had climbed out and decided to lay close to the edge again as Baekhyun swam laps.

In the water, all of Baekhyun's fears and worries floated away. He had always used the water as an escape, so he had been more than happy when Chanyeol suggested they go swimming together. It gave him that chance to think at peace without all the choas trying to jam itself down his throat.

Baekhyun sighed. He felt at peace and happier than he's been in a while. But don't miss interpret, he was happy with Chanyeol —- unbelievably happy —- but he was even happier because the swim had managed to strip him of his worries.

Baekhyun smiled before diving beneath the water again and swimming his way towards Chanyeol. He resurfaced before he could smack his head against the wall, popping up like a jack in the box. Luckily Chanyeol had his eyes closed, so Baekhyun's sudden appearance didn't startle him.

Baekhyun smiled and scooted closer, laying his arms over the edge and placing his chin down. He studied Chanyeol for a moment longer before reaching one hand out to caress his cheek. Chanyeol sighed at his touch and leaned his face into Baekhyun's hand. Baekhyun's smile softened as he slightly lifted himself from the pool to plant a kiss upon Chanyeol's lips.

Chanyeol kissed him back, his hand sliding up into the hair at the nape of his neck. The kiss began to deepen and wanting to feel Chanyeol's body pressed against his own, Baekhyun effortless lifted himself from the pool without once breaking their kiss. His leg slinging over Chanyeol's hip as he straddled his waist.

Baekhyun's lips trailed along Chanyeol's jaw over to his ear to whisper, "Are you going to be a cockblocker again?"

Chanyeol laughed and softly muttered against Baekhyun's neck, "I have a request."

"What is it?"

"I've never done it in a pool . . ." Chanyeol muttered.

Baekhyun pulled back, his eyes searching Chanyeol's face before he bursted into laughter. "Oh my god! You're serious?" Baekhyun cried. He laughed again. "I've been told that hurts. Are you sure?"

"I'm dying, Baek. What could hurt worse than that...."

Baekhyun sighed. "You're right. And please, stop pulling the 'I'm dying' card before I punch you. I don't like hearing it."

Chanyeol nodded. "Understood. So, is that a yes....?"

Baekhyun sighed again and rolled his eyes. "Yes."

Chanyeol grinned and kissed his cheek. "Then lead the way . . ."

Baekhyun pursed his lips and climbing off Chanyeol as he grumbled, "You're lucky I love you...." Then with a huff he unclasped his jeans and pushed them down, it took a moment though since they were wet, but once he had managed he tossed them to the side with a wet slap before jumping stark naked into the pool.

Chanyeol laughed at the sight and removed his own clothing as well before jumping in after Baekhyun.
