Five

The one that got away

Minseok decided he’ll clean up Baekhyun to his apartment and will just forget and move on the next day. After all these years, he met Baekhyun again and decided to still take care of him despite everything. “How ironic”. He thought. He let Baekhyun sleep on his bed while he slept on the couch. Minseok has still a paper to finish the next day with Luhan, so he needs to rest. 

The following day, he left a note to a fully asleep Baekhyun then decided to leave to meet Luhan. 

Baekhyun woke up at 1pm. His head hurted like hell and he was confused where he is. “. I got too drunk last night. I forgot what happened. And whose place is this? Oh my God!” He found a note next to him and read it. “Please leave keenly once you’re awake. Don’t bother asking who I am or how you ended up here. One thing is for sure, nothing bad happened. So let’s just forget and move on”. Baekhyun sighed and took time to roam around the small apartment. The room was so simple and clean. No photos hanging. No decorations or other hidden fiasco. He placed his hands on his cheeks and bumped his head on the table. “Stupid me. Good thing the person who found me was a nice one. I guess? Thank you to you whoever you are”. He left the house after contemplating and decided to thank the person later. For now, he has to deal with his problems.

“Hey Baozi you seemed troubled. Is something bothering you?” Luhan asked. 

“Lu-ge, I saw him again.” Minseok flustered. 

Luhan gulped and continued. “Funny. It seems fate has played its game to you. Did you talk?”

”No. I almost hit him with my car last night because he was too drunk. He didn’t see me nor recognized me thank God. But—“

”But what?” Luhan immediately asked. 

“I took him to my place because he was too drunk to go home. And he threw up so I needed to take care of him. We didn’t get the chance to meet though as he was still asleep when I rushed here and I left him a note not to ask who I am”. Minseok defended.

”My baozi, I would do the same if I was in your place. No need to worry. The thing is though, what if he’s stubborn enough and would still care to know about you”. Luhan responded. 

Minseok was crossing his arms and believed what Luhan said. Baekhyun is stubborn. Surely, he’ll do his best just to meet the man who let him sleep at his place. Worse, he is still at Minseok’s place waiting for him. He then exclaimed. “Ge, I’m not sure if I’m ready yet.” He then looked at Luhan like he is about to invite him. “Ge, Can I ask you a favor?”

Luhan looked at Minseok without hesitation. “What is it?”

Chapter 15: I think about who's the one that got away is xiumin.. He should be telling and find the truth rather than running away on the first thing he found..

Chapter 15: Aww, this story was cute :3 Really enjoyed reading it, because you're writing style was somehow different and it was very straight forward. Looking forward to your next work! ^^
And to the question: I think Baekhyun is the One, because he is no longer in a toxic relationship with Chanyeol and got away from it. It's a little difficult for me to interpet it due to translation.... xD
PS: I just noticed Baekhyun is also The One in CBX's MV ;D

Chapter 15: Luhan’s character can also be considered as the one who got away. It’s just that my Xiubaek heart dominates in this story :)

Chapter 10: Aaaaah! >_< That was cute. And I'm happy that everything goes well betwenn him an Luhan so far. And "chill & watch Netflix" ... I guess that also is enough in order to skip a scene xD

Chapter 9: That kiss got me shook! Didn't expect it so suddenly, but I had the feeling in the earlier chapters that he might have some feelings.... And I find it funny how boldly Minseok confronted Baekhyun. And so Baekhyun knew that Minseok might have had some deeper feelings for him ?
Your story in general is so straight forward, I like it ! :D

Chapter 8: I somehow start getting conflicted feelings about the relationships I guess ?? Like of course I'm totall rooting for my otp, but somehow I have the feeling that Chanbaek might actually become a thing, because Baekhyun finds comfort in Chanyeol and they end up in different directions ?? D: And Baek want to rekindle their previous relationship, but they weren't a couple.... >_> (though I hope they'll be of course)
