I wrote this a very long time ago, back in May 2016. This was around the time when I first started writing in the 3rd person, so I guess this was practise of some kind -- as before I only tended to write in 1st for my original stories etc. I never really intended to share this anywhere because it's literally tiny, only 2,300 words, but I just reread it and thought, hey, it's not so bad xD
I have tweaked it a little from the time when I first wrote it. Because it was 'practise', my pov was a little mishmash and switched in a few places between Baekhyun and Chanyeol, so now it's just Baekhyun's pov (which is a little rare for me considering I write from Chanyeol's pov most often, probably just so I get to describe the beauty of Baekhyun hahahaha~).
This is supposed to be set in WW1 but none of the characters are allocated to a certain country/side. Also, because this was me simply getting to grips with the 3rd person, I didn't do any research for writing this so there may be some inaccuracies which I will ask you to forgive me for. I remember that I wanted to take this idea further and make it into a fic somehow but I couldn't think of a plot. I still can't, so yeah, that's not happening xD This little oneshot shall remain as it is, and I think it works like this. I hope you like it too! ♥
