Why can't I say I'm in love?

Florilegium
Why can't I say I'm in love?
Angst | Canon | Chanyeol Baekhyun |
 
 

Baekhyun doesn't seem to know the common courtesy of knocking before entering a room. "Chanyeo—" 

Chanyeol was caught off guard by his friend's sudden appearance that he closed his laptop clumsily.

"Hey! Why did you stop the song? I want to listen."

Chanyeol couldn’t stand seeing Baekhyun, but he managed to fake a smile. "What do you need, Baekhyun?"

"Can I borrow your gray hoodie? Mine's still in the laundry."

"Fine. Go away." Chanyeol stood up from where he was seated and plopped into his bed.

Baekhyun was standing by the door, on his way out, when he asked, "By the way, what's the name of the song?"                                                                              

 

 

We keep behind closed doors
Every time I see you I die a little more
Stolen moments that we steal as the curtain falls
It'll never be enough

 

As you drive me to my house
I can't stop these silent tears from rolling down
You and I both have to hide on the outside
Where I can't be yours and you can't be mine

 

But I know this
We got a love that is homeless

 

 

Of all the people my heart could've chosen, it decided to love a boy who didn't have enough room in his heart for me. 

My biggest mistake wasn't falling in love with you, Baekhyun. It was thinking you've fallen for me, too.

                                                                                                

  

Why can't I hold you in the street
Why can't I kiss you on the dancefloor
I wish that it could be like that
Why can't it be like that
Cause I'm yours

  

 

Sehun walked up to me and pulled me closer to Chanyeol. His embrace was warm, and his strong arms seemed very protective wrapped around my body. Everything became a blur; I couldn't see anything else, just the two of us, as I leaned into him, not wanting the moment to end.

 

 

Why can't I say that I'm in love
I wanna shout it from the rooftops
Wish that it could be like that
Why can't it be like that
Cause I'm yours

 

  

I didn't stop loving you, Baekhyun; I decided to stop showing it. Because no matter how hard I tried, you would never be mine.

 

   

It's obvious you're meant for me
Every piece of you it just fits perfectly
Every second every thought I'm in so deep
But I'll never show it on my face

 

But we know this
We got a love that is homeless

 

 

I can’t tell you I love you, but every time our eyes meet, every time I hear your voice, I've fallen deeper and my heart aches for you, Chanyeol.      

 

 

I don't wanna live love this way
I don't wanna hide us away
I wonder if it ever will change
I'm living for that day
Someday

 

 


"Isn't it strange? There are so many people out there who secretly love someone. And there are so many people out there who have no idea that someone secretly loves them."

Chapter 3: Short, simple, but full of sadness. I wish it could be a little longer. Or maybe there's a sequel to it?? But if there isn't, it's okay. I'm..fine :')

Chapter 1: This is simple but I love it. You didn't tell us that Luhan had a thing for Sehun yet these words: "When I looked at him, I saw beautiful things-" "-and I just couldn't help but wish that when he looked at me, he saw the same" tell us all that we need to know about Luhan's feelings. I feel sad for Luhan when I read the last part of this story, though. Keep on writing, dear. I'm sure you will get better :)
