Everything is YouHiccups were all that Chanyeol heard that night, having gotten up when they had started and moving to the closest spot he could be to the source, which was the wall that separated the two rooms.
So that is how they both spent the night, Chanyeol silently guarding Baekhyun, snow-white ears trained to pick up his sounds. He didn't know why, but his heart ached hearing those sounds.
The moment they met, Chanyeol thought the boy very intriguing, like Pandora's Box waiting to be opened, a person full of mysteries. Now that he knows that they are bethrothed, he's even more determined to figure him out.

When the royals adjourned for breakfast, it was only natural that Baekhyun and Chanyeol turned up with bags under their eyes. Sitting next to each other, it was easy to assume they had stayed up together for...late night activities.
