Drying his fading platinum pink hair with a blow dryer, Baekhyun faces the wide mirrors just by his bedroom's vanity. Time check, five o'clock early in the morning. and roommate Chanyeol is still dead asleep and will surely remain asleep even how much noise Baekhyun makes while preparing. It's too early to leave the dorm actually but he just woke up too early and thought why not prepare now, he didn't know why he woke up but he felt so excited to go home today. It’s been a while since he did so.

Finishing with his hair, he didn't put anything onto his face anymore since he wasn't embarrassed at all when it comes to his family - now also includes Sarah cause he can comfortably be bare with her whenever and however. He walked back to his bed and grabbed the coat that he had picked and wore it. Grabbing his backpack, he stepped out of the room only to jump in surprise when he saw Kyungsoo already awake standing by the entrance of the kitchen and was holding a spatula while looking back at his direction. "What the fu—why are you cooking so early?"  He muffled in surprise as he gently closed the door. "I woke up very early. because I'm hanging out with Nabi later at lunch." Kyungsoo explained. "Then why cook so early??" Baekhyun asked in disbelief but he made sure his voice was soft enough. "Why prepare so early, I heard the shower running at four in the morning. Bucheon is just thirty minutes away." The guy only asked back. "Well, why not?" Baekhyun answered while clearing his throat. "Same answer." Kyungsoo said before entering the kitchen again.

"Bro, are you okay?"

He instead followed the guy inside the kitchen. "I just feel down. I have thirteen more days 'til Nabi goes back to the States. And worse, six of those thirteen days, I have filming for the whole day. So that makes it one remaining week." Kyungsoo explained. "Uhm..." Baekhyun literally calculated it with his fingers. "Wow, you sure are detailed." He said and chuckled. "Anyway, don't be too down. It's not as if you can't call each other. It's just what? Three months of wait 'til it's February and she's gonna be your secret wife." Baekhyun reassured. "Damn, I hate how you include the word 'secret' to it." Kyungsoo said and glared at him lightly. "But it's technically true and I'm not taking it negatively. You should really keep her a secret anyway because she'll get into so much trouble." Baekhyun defended. "Then I'll get in trouble too. I'll leave with her if that happens." Kyungsoo answered. "Oh~hoho~ Don't speak impulsively mah boy~ I told you that right?" Baekhyun reminded. "What impulsively, you don't believe me? Seriously?" Kyungsoo asked and stopped cooking for a while. "That's like killing EXO, Kyungsoo." Baekhyun said but he still had a chuckle, partly not believing such 'impulsive' words from the guy. "Aigoo, this is why I don't want to be lovesick..." Baekhyun turned around ready to walk.

"Lovesick your . Who takes shower four in the morning? I bet, you're lovesick too."

"Am not." He turned around again in defense. "Where did you go after filming Sing For You?" Kyungsoo interrogated back. "H-here. You don't know because you went straight to filming the movi—“Liar, I came here first to take a quick shower. Ohh?~" Kyungsoo pointed at him accusingly, knowing he was caught already. "Ohh?~" Baekhyun mimicked him but his lips immediately curved down into an irritated look before turning around to walk again. "How's Sarah?" Kyungsoo asked which made him stop walking again. "We don't talk much." Baekhyun answered. "Oh c'mon~ Baekhyun, what is wrong with you. Nabi told me how nice Sarah is and I don't understand your point of fli—“And I don't understand your point of asking about my private life when I'm not asking about yours." Baekhyun cut the guy off with a sarcastic chuckle before speeding up to the front door. Once he was out, he harshly leaned on the door for a while as he ran his fingers through his scalp. It annoyed him the most to talk about his complicated status with Sarah because even he doesn't understand it.

All he knew is that he can't own Sarah, he can't label her with anything. Although she makes him smile effortlessly, she makes him laugh, she makes him happy, she makes him want to take care of her, she makes him excited for everyday, she makes every little thing special to him – he believes he isn't falling for her yet. He didn't want to take her just to be on the safe side or just to escape what he hasn't healed from yet. Sarah Jacobs to Byun Baekhyun is unquestionably a special person but all he can say at the moment is that - not yet - but almost every time they meet, he fails to avoid showing her how special she is to him, that's the thing he's so irritated to himself about.

Going into his own car, he bought drive-thru breakfast for the two of them knowing they can only eat during the ride later on. Just fifteen minutes to her apartment and Baekhyun arrived in no time. He put his hoodie on and mask before going out. He looked around the empty peaceful street of her neighborhood constantly while he walks to the gates. He was about to open it when, "Oppa!" He jumped in surprise and quickly tried running back to his car thinking it was a fan until he realized it was Sarah. She was coming from the other side of the street while jogging. "Ssh!" He signaled her while looking around. As soon as she arrived in front of him, Baekhyun finally took notice of her very pale face. "Why jog when it's cold?" He scolded and quickly dragged her into her own apartment.

Once they were inside, Baekhyun grabbed both of her cold hands and began rubbing with his warm ones. "You can jog but not at these times. You know how cold and foggy it is." He said. "But I can't sleep anymore... I'm nervous." Sarah explained making him stop. "Nervous of what?" He asked. "Before when I just arrive, few men try date me. But they don't want their Eomma to meet me. Because they say 'Eomma won't like you.' So very nervous now." Sarah explained innocently. "Well then let me tell you, I bet my Eomma will like you." He said and wiped the cold sweats on her face. "And anyway, we're not dating." He finished and turned around as quick as possible to avoid her possible reaction on that. "I know but still, Oppa.... Not full Korean so not liked by mothers." Sarah reasoned out right away which surprised Baekhyun that she didn't react on what he said. "Status is just status. Not important to me so much. Oppa cares for me. Care is love... So it's enough. Very very." She added and giggled before skipping towards her room. "Oppa, I prepare really really fast and wait there." She said before entering. Once he was left alone, Baekhyun collapsed down her couch as if he felt weak. "No... No, don’t—hey, sshh—aish..." He hit his knuckles on his chest while constantly shaking his head. "W-why is she so cute. No, this isn't good... C-care is definitely different f-from... that one." He muttered and eagerly shook his head like he's hallucinating and stuffs weirder than that.

Surprisingly, different from what he thinks of about girls, Sarah finished within fifteen minutes. He remembered his Ex-girlfriend's fastest preppy time was two hours and when she appears - it's just a very neutral make up so they always ended up fighting about that too. He didn't understand women's sense at all but now Sarah proved him wrong. She still looks like her usual - having such beautiful mixed race face, she didn't need much make up. Also, she was wearing a simple jeans and white v-neck shirt which shows her lean neck. "Oppa, sorry. Ran out of pretty dresses. It's all in laundry and I haven't done laundry yet because busy." She began defending her simple attire but Baekhyun only smiled. "I knew it. This is why my mother will like you." He said. Sarah gulped and her cheeks turned crimson right away hearing what he said. "C'mon while it's early. I also bought food we can eat during the ride." He said and smiled. "Oppa, I will follow out. I will just give very many water and food to Tony so that he can stack it." She rushed back into her room making Baekhyun chuckle with a goofy smile. When he realized his own grin, "Sweet Jesus—stop..." He groaned and pushed his own mouth down again before walking out of the apartment first.

He only had to wait inside the car for a few minutes until Sarah entered while hugging her backpack. "Oppa, ready~" She said and giggled. But to her surprise, Baekhyun didn't smile back and just started the engine.

"Something wrong, Oppa?"

"Nothing..." Baekhyun answered briefly but his eyes were tightly focused onto the road like they weren't moving at all. "Now I really know. Confirmed now. Oppa is really moody nature." Sarah said and scrunched her nose while pouting. "Oppa..." She tried calling again while tugging on his arm. "Yah, I'm driving..." Baekhyun murmured like he didn't want to open his mouth at all. "But Oppa... don't be sadding..." She said and her hands began moving down his thighs making him jolt in shock. Sar—no, wait—ha~ Sarah, stop..." Baekhyun was trying to stay composed but his mouth was already curving up into a grin feeling ticklish on that area. "Oppa, don't frown..." Sarah still continued with her innocent words but her hands were already brushing teasingly against Baekhyun's covered private part. "NO—Sarah. Yah!~" He shuddered when Sarah playfully twirled her fingertips on the clothing of his pants right on that area. "Oppa..." She called and Baekhyun glanced briefly to the side to look at her. She was on the side of her lips while looking back at him. "E-eat your fries..." He muffled. "B-but it's not tasty... I want something very more tasty..." She muffled and Baekhyun could only gulp. She was starting it again –  her 'feel good' chitchat. "N-nothing's tastier... Eat what's there..." He answered in hesitance but his voice already came out airy when Sarah cupped him down there completely. "Here, Oppa... do I not make you feel good wi—“Oh . Alright..." Baekhyun gave in and quickly turned the car to a secluded side of the empty road since it's just 5:30 in the morning. Sarah grinned as Baekhyun began unbuckling his pants. "I swear this is your last on your feel good ga—holy ~" Baekhyun couldn't finish his sentence anymore when Sarah leaned down and immediately pulled down his pants and boxers a bit just enough to take his length out.

"Oppa, you say no but already hard..."

Baekhyun glared down at her but then she began his tip which made him hitch for air. He placed the back of his head on the car seat with a slight forced impact and his lips parted as Sarah hungrily pleasured him down there. It's really his best choice in life to make his car completely tinted black. "Oppa, feel good?" She asked while his whole length, her wet muscle slowly moving up from the bottom until it comes back to his tip. "Fu—that feels good. ..." He cursed endlessly when Sarah took it all in while creating that sound from inside. "O—oh my goodness, w-why do I deserve this much bles—ahh~" He moaned continuously as Sarah blows him much faster. He shut his eyes tightly closed while his teeth were all visible - he looked like he was pooping. "Damn, that's good..." He hushed while panting hard. He looked down to Sarah again and grabbed the hem of her shirt from behind and lifted it up just to feel the skin of her back. She blew him hungrily - full of love - while even letting out moans that vibrated through Baekhyun's shaft. Like she said before - everything that makes her man happy, she'll do.

In no time, Sarah managed to make him . She bobbed her hands back and forth down him and stopped when he starts releasing, she stuck her tongue out taking it all into "Ahhh~ ..." Baekhyun held on his forehead while panting hard. He lets out that deep and airy groan he always had whenever he reaches his peak. He thought it was done but then to his surprise, Sarah swallowed him again as if giving him a nice dessert after the meal he just had – damn, not all women even likes to take it in, or at least that’s what he knows. "Oh my god... Sarah, w-what the hell." He groaned in so much pleasure. Her eyes were glued up to him as she everything clean. "Aah~  I like it so much. Oppa, jjang... tasty..." She moaned while gulping it down and closed her eyes for a second. Baekhyun gulped feeling all tempted to her right there and then but he can't, they're travelling – TO HIS PARENTS. When she finally pulled away she wiped the side of her lips but her finger clean, like she didn't want to miss a single thing he discharged. Baekhyun on the other hand had his head on the car seat and was still panting hard to the point of letting out heavy sighs every time. Sarah grinned feeling happy to see his reaction and placed her head on his chest. "Oppa's not stressed anymore... Right?" She asked and hugged him on the waist. Baekhyun just sighed and placed his cheek on the crown of her hair like he was ready for a nap. Sarah giggled and pulled his boxers and pants up again and closed it herself.

"Why do you give me so much huh?"

Sarah looked up and their lips met feathers away from each other. "I'm giving very many so that what Oppa lost can go back... and then give me too in the future when he can." She answered. Baekhyun stared right into her eyes while having a hand over her back. "Why do you believe so much that it will go back? I'm not asking you to hope for anything... we're just... doing what we want to do whenever we have time, whenever we're free. It means, no pressure, no commitment. If you really like me, it will be unfair for you. So... why?" He asked. "I can do sadding, but I choose the other way around. I choose happying. Because Oppa make me choose it..." Sarah answered and placed a light kiss on his lips before completely pulling away. She took out a mint chewing gum from her bag and ate even feeding Baekhyun one as well. "What the hell did you just say?" He asked and chuckled not knowing what she said. "You mean sad and happy? Yah, who grew up in America, I know better than you." He said and hit the gas again. "Yes, but don't know why there no verb term for sad and happy words alone. There should. Oppa because people do it by choice." Sarah explained. "Sad and Happy is a feeling, it's not an action." Baekhyun corrected and laughed. "Aniya, Sad and Happy should be action. People can choose between two in all thing. Life, not easy always but we can choose to do sadding or happying cause nothing change. Life always hard." Sarah explained. "That would be the deepest thing you've ever told me ever since we knew each other." Baekhyun answered and chuckled - although she was a bit struggling to explain it, she actually explained it pretty well this time.

"Ne~ I'm improving. Thanks to Oppa."

"Keurae~" Baekhyun said while chewing his gum coolly. "And it seems like I just started seeing a girl whose hobby is happying, ayt?" He asked casually which made Sarah silent for a while as she processed what he just said, 'Seeing' is like equivalent to 'dating' right? But then, she chose to keep it to herself. Looking at Baekhyun, it seems like he was unaware he said that. He was driving with a smile and Sarah wanted him to keep on having that face. She wasn't stupid. Yes, she seems to look a bit low and clueless a lot of times because of language barrier but truth be told, she still grew up in a place where a lot of people are much more straightforward than here. She could feel it - woman's instincts - that Baekhyun was already growing some feelings for her but is scared to take actions, heck, she doesn't even know if he was aware of his own feelings or not. He who’s been trying too hard to distant himself from love might have made him forget how it actually feels. Sarah realized what Nabi once told her was correct, Baekhyun has a very sensitive heart that he tries hard to hide it with a tough façade and also tries hard to save it from getting even much softer than it already is. This is one reason why she can't seem to give up no matter how much Baekhyun tells her they will always be nothing more than 'part-time' lovers whenever he's only free or bored. She knew it can be more than that, she knew it's already more than that.

She loves him.

She could have checked number ten... but the part, 'and he genuinely loves me back.' is still left unsure, it's left unanswered - or at least right now, it is.

A/N: Normally, I would judge Sarah right away as TY and stuffs but I can't... Cause she does it with love and means she does it for a lot of men... So... let's just say, she's really affectionate. WOW, Yes Baekhyun, why do you deserve so much blessing??? Seems like the heavens are giving him a payback for sacrificing and reforming a broken couple before. LOL

(I was debating with myself whether to tag this M or not since the scene was just a very short part, but yeah, it's better to be sure. -- we as if, my young readers would even avoid it? LOL
