“Baekhyun wait, please.”

Baekhyun stopped and glared at Chanyeol,” What do you want.”

“Just let me apologize.. for being that way yesterday.”

“Why should I, even if I accept your apology you’re still like everyone else, Chanyeol.”

Baekhyun turned away and began to walk away from Chanyeol.

“Byun Baekhyun, this isn’t fair! Now I didn’t judge you before you told me your story, or after! You don’t even know why I acted that way, you won’t even let me explain myself!”

“Then explain!” He turned back around.

Chanyeol was silent,” I… I can’t I’m not ready yet… but Baekhyun trust me there is a reason I haven’t told you yet, A good one. So please just trust me. Trust that I had a reason for acting that way yesterday.”

“Why should I trust you when you can’t trust me? When you can’t even tell me why!”

Chanyeol sighed,” I know you shouldn’t… but Baekhyun I care about you, I’ve never liked someone this much.. So please just forgive me.”

Baekhyun shook his head,” I’ll forgive you, but I’m not ready to be in a relationship with you. There isn’t enough trust Chan, I need you to trust me, and I need to be able to trust you before we can have a relationship.

I… I understand..” Chanyeol hung his head low.

“Sorry, Chanyeol, but I’m leaving.”

“Wait. Are you still going to see my sister this weekend?”

“I don’t know.. I’ll think about it.”

Baekhyun spent that night texting Tao, they were making plans to hang out, and Baekhyun was glad, he needed something to take his mind off of Chanyeol.

“Baekhyun, dinner is done!” His mother yelled up the stairs.

-

The next few days went by, but they were awkward. Baekhyun and Chanyeol didn’t really speak, Baekhyun could tell that. It was really starting to piss him off. He said he didn’t want to date him, not that he was perminately cutting him off.

“Park Chanyeol!” Baekhyun marched up to him.

Chanyeol ignored him, putting books away in his locker.

“PARK CHAN.YEOL.”

He sighed and looked down at Baekhyun,” What, Baek..”

“Why are you avoiding me?”

“Isn’t this what you want. For me to leave you alone.”

Baekhyun rolled his eyes,” Look I decided I’ll be at your house tomorrow, so tell your sister I’m coming.”

“But-“

“I’m coming, idiot!”

“That’s what Luhan said last night too, but keep your life too youself.” Sehun said hearing the conversation as he walked by.

Baekhyun blushed,” Oh Sehun! Yah!” He ran away.

Chanyeol smiled at Baekhyun’s awkwardness to the question, It confirmed that Baekhyun still cared about him, and that was all he needed.
