Chanyeol checked his phone, probably for the billionth time this week. In hopes that Baekhyun finally replied to his messages. He had texted the latter everyday for the past week, telling him that he was sorry and that he didn't mean what he said. However, he got nothing in response. When the two were still in Japan, they had exchanged phone numbers but Chanyeol wasn't sure if the number worked in Korea as well. 

 

Chanyeol sighed, as he made his way into his car. Today he didn't have work so he wanted to visit Jongin. Because maybe Jongin could help him out with his problems. The drive took only a couple of minutes, considering that Chanyeol lived in the same neighborhood that Jongin's company was located. When he got there he was immediately greeted by the staffs and made his way into Jongin's office.

 

Jongin shot up from his seat when he heard the doors of his office opening. "Kyungsoo?"

 

"No, it's me." Chanyeol waved and Jongin smiled. "Where is your secretary boyfriend anyways? Aren't lovers supposed to always stay together? Or did you two have a fight?"

 

Jongin shook his head. "No, I just sent him to the store to get something. And he should've been back by now. He's been out for almost an hour. And he's not answering my calls."

 

Chanyeol took a seat next to Jongin's desk. "Sounds like someone's worried."

 

Jongin scoffed. Because did Chanyeol really believe that Jongin was worried? For Kyungsoo? Please. Kyungsoo probably just got lost. Because Kyungsoo was never really good with directions. 

 

"What brings you here?" Jongin asked. Actually, he was glad Chanyeol was here because he was really bored and needed something to entertain him. And since Kyungsoo was still not back, he had to deal with Chanyeol. For now at least.

 

"I wanted to visit my favorite-"

 

"Hyung, there's something I needed to ask you." Jongin interrupted and Chanyeol just stared blankly at him. "I saw you at a resteraunt yesterday. The Italian one. But who were you with? Did you finally find that guy from Japan?"

 

Chanyeol shook his head. "No, his names Lay. He's the one I'm supposed to be marrying."

 

"Like an arranged marriage?"

 

"Yeah, except he wanted to go slow and wanted us to date first before we actually do get married. But he says that if we still dont feel anything for each other then we'll call the arranged marriage off." Chanyeol explained and then suddenly remembered the reason why he was here. "Actually Jongin there's something I need to tell you."

 

"What is it?"

 

"Promise not to tell anyone. I'll kill you if you do." Chanyeol replied and Jongin just nodded repeatedly. "Remember the guy from Japan? Well his name is Baekhyun and he's pregnant-"

 

"Hyung, I'm so sorry. You really liked him-"

 

"Let me finish." Chanyeol sighed. "He's pregnant with my child. But I messed up and thought it was another man's so now he's really mad and I dont know what to do. He gave me his phone number in Japan but I dont even know if the number works in Korea."

 

"Wait, you actually want him to have the child?"

 

"Of course!" Chanyeol replied. "It sounds unreasonable right now but I really do love him and I want to start a family with him. Plus, it's my child. I have to be held responsible."

 

"Well you should try to find him." Jongin replied, which made Chanyeol slap his head. Because does Jongin really think he was retarded? Chanyeol's been looking for Baekhyun for well over a week. 

 

Jongin rubbed his head and gently massaged it. He already receives enough pain from Kyungsoo, he doesn't need it from his bestfriend too. "Or do you know anyone thats close to him? Maybe if you find one of his friends, they can show you to him."

 

"I don't know anyone of his friends though." Chanyeol sighed, sadly.

"Photosynthesis is a process used by plants and other organisms to convert light energy normally the Sun, into chemical energy that can later be released to fuel the organisms' activities."

 

Sehun yawned, as the professor explained the process of photosynthesis. Which he thought was stupid because he already learned this back in elemantary school. And there was no need to reteach something he already knew. As the teacher talked, all Sehun could hear were blah blah blah. Why did he even take this class?

 

Suddenly he felt his phone vibrate inside his pocket. It was probably Luhan calling again. Luhan had been calling him since lunch and he wasn't able to answer because he was hanging out with Tao and his other friends. He was planning on calling him back after school was over, but now Luhan kept calling him every minute. And it bothered him.

 

After the final bell rang, Sehun took a sigh of relief and rushed out of the classroom, pushing past the other students to get to the door. He was thankful, school had ended because he had a lot of things to do today. First, he had to finish his presentation with Tao for English class, but Sehun knew he would be the one doing all the work because Tao was a very lazy person. And plus, he wanted to have a good grade and if Tao did it, he would probably fail. Second, he had to study for a test in almost every class. And lastly, he needed to review for the Winter Finals that were coming up. Sehun was a vey busy man.

 

As he walked, Sehun felt another vibration coming from his pockets. He groaned and picked it up this time. "Hello?"

 

"Sehun I-"

 

Sehun rolled his eyes. "Luhan I'm very busy right now so I cant hang out. In fact, I'll be busy the whole week so please stop calling me. It's interrupting my studying."

 

"Oh." Luhan replied and Sehun could sense the tone of hurt in Luhan's reply. "I just wanted to tell you, I got you something for school. I'll just mail it to you."

 

"Luhan I-"

 

"Dont worry I wont be bothering you anymore. Goodbye."

Kyungsoo came to a conclusion that being in the car with one of his Director's from work was very awkward. Although, Kyungsoo's been in Jongin's car plently of times, it was never awkward around them. Because Kyungsoo would either turn on the radio and sing along or Jongin would just complain about how annoying Kyungsoo was. But with Suho, it was different. It was awkward but it was nice.

 

It was very calming.

 

"So, how long have you and Jongin known each other?" Suho asked, making a swift curve.The two had already finished shopping and Suho even treated Kyungsoo to lunch and icecream. But now, they were on their way back to the company. And Kyungsoo was probably going to explain why he took so long to Jongin when he got back. "He's never introduced his boyfriends to us before. We would just find out on the news or something. You're the first boyfriend he ever introduced to his mom. That makes you pretty special."

 

"We're on our early stages right now." Kyungsoo replied. "We actually met in the park."

 

Suho smiled. "Thats cute. What was your first impression on him?"

 

Kyungsoo wanted to say that his first impression of Jongin was a greedy, cocky, arrogant that didn't care about others feelings. But he decided to play it cool.

 

"He was nice."

 

-

 

After Kyungsoo and Suho said their goodbyes and a quick handshake, Kyungsoo made his way into Jongin's office. He was suprised to find Chayeol there, but he wasn't complaining. Because maybe since Jongin's bestfriend was there, Jongin wouldn't yell at him for taking so long.

 

Just maybe.

 

"What ing took you so long? I asked for a pen. That's it!" Jongin shouted, as Kyungsoo handed him the grocery bag. 

 

Kyungsoo just groaned and bowed politely at Chanyeol. And Jongin just pouted his lips and crossed his arms. Because Kyungsoo just ignored him. "Hello, it's nice seeing you again today."

 

Chanyeol smiled and patted his back. "It's nice to see you again too. I'm actually heading out to lunch. Do you guys want to join me?" 

 

"No, I'm okay. I actually just had lunch." Kyungsoo replied, patting his stomach.

 

Jongin raised an eyebrow, suspiciously. "With?"

 

"Suho."

 

"What?" Jongin shouted, causing Chanyeol and Kyungsoo to pug their ears. "I asked you to buy something and you went on a date with my cousin? What the ?"

 

"It wasn't a date." Kyungsoo explained. "I just bumbed into him before I left and he offered me a ride. Of course, I said no but he insisted! And I couldn't say no to lunch because he was driving-"

 

Jongin just rolled his eyes. He couldn't believe it. He didn't even know Suho and Kyungsoo knew each other and here they were having a date together. It's not that he was jealous, Jongin just didn't want Kyungsoo to corrupt Suho's innocent and kind heart. Besides Kyungsoo wasn't even Suho's type. He preferred kind and gentle guys. Something that Kyungsoo wasn't. 

 

"Okay, then so I guess its just me and Jongin."

 

"Actually hyung, I'll pass too. I have plans later." Jongin replied, still crossing his arms. He was still mad at Kyungsoo for going on a date with his cousin. Even if Kyungsoo denied that it was a date, in Jongin's perspective it was a date. 

 

"Okay then it's just me."

 

After Chanyeol left and said his goodbyes, Kyungsoo felt Jongin's intense stare directed at him. Kyungsoo raised an eyebrow. "What?"

 

"What do you mean what?" Jongin replied. "How could you date my cousin behind my back?"

 

Kyungsoo groaned. How many times did he have to explain to Jongin that he didnt go on a date with Suho? It was just a friendly get together. "I told you it wasn't a date-"

 

"When two people are together, having lunch. Its a date." Jongin fired back. 

 

"He was just helping me out!" Kyungsoo rolled his eyes in frustration. "Besides why do you care? It's not like you have anything to do with it-"

 

Jongin scoffed. "If you haven't noticed my mom and Suho are very close to one another. Which is wierd because I'm her son and we're not even close. But since they're close, if you mention anything about our relationship to Suho that doesn't match with whatever we're telling my mom. It'd be fishy and my mom would know that this relationship isn't real."

 

Kyungsoo sighed. "Fine. I'll be more careful around him next time-"

 

"Next time?" Jongin scoffed. "There won't be a next time. Your not allowed to see him anymore."

 

"But-"

 

Jongin furrowed his eyebrows. "No buts. I'm your boss and you'll do as I say."

When Sehun returned home, he noticed a package outside his door. This must be the one Luhan sent to him. He sighed and took the package inside. He placed the package on the table and grabbed scissors. When he finally retrieved a pair of scissors from the kitchen, he tore the package open. When he was finally able to remove all the Saran Wrap, he took the laptop that was hidden at the bottom and smiled.

 

Sehun's laptop was very old and worn out. And Luhan pitied him, considering the fact that Sehun was in college. And in college, you need a stable laptop to do presentations and essays on, so Luhan came up with the idea of buying Sehun a new laptop. He had been planning this suprise for a week and when's the laptop finally arrived, he kept calling Sehun to tell him to pick it up from his apartment.

 

However, plans have changed and now Sehun felt horrible.

 

-

 

Kyungsoo's attention was diverted to Jongin, as he watched the latter make a swift U-Turn. It was now 10 PM and Jongin offered Kyungsoo a ride home. To which Kyungsoo declined at first, but then realized that Jongin wasnt familiar with the word 'No'. In the end, Kyungsoo accepted the offer. Besides at least being in the car with Jongin wasnt that awkward. 

 

"What?" Jongin asked, keeping his eyes on the wheel. For the past couple of minutes, he noticed Kyungsoo staring intendively at him. "You've been staring at me since we got in the car. Am I that attractive, that you cant take your eyes off of me?"

 

"No." Kyungsoo replied and turned to the window. 

 

"Then why were you staring at me?" Jongin smirked. "Perphaps you've fallen for me, already?"

 

Kyungsoo scoffed. Yeah, right. "No."

 

"Well maybe you-"

 

Kyungsoo groaned. "Shut up, I wasn't staring at you. I was staring at your hands. I can't drive."

 

"Your 26 and you still dont know how to drive? That's hilarious. Good one." Jongin laughed, but stopped when he saw Kyungsoo glaring at him. He cleared his throat and gulped. "I'll teach you."

 

Kyungsoo rolled his eyes. "You're not excatly the best driver out there so no thanks-"

 

"At least I can drive." Jongin replied. "I was just being the nice person I am by offering you help. If you don't want my help fine."

 

Kyungsoo snorted. Jongin being nice. Funny. "It's fine. I'll learn by myself. It can't be that difficult anyways. Besides if you taught me you'd probably just keep yelling at me. No thanks-"

 

Jongin laughed and turned his head to face Kyungsoo. When the two were finally facing each other, Jongin winked. "Just don't get yourself hurt."

 

Kyungsoo blinked and shyly looked away. Something about Jongin's words and actions made Kyungsoo's heart flutter. The sound of Jongin's voice, the look on his face, everything looked and sounded so sincere. Kyungsoo wanted to believe it, but the words came from Jongin and Jongin was never this caring before. 

 

"Keep your eyes on the rode, before you get the both of us killed."
