Four Times

CHAN POV
☣️☣️☣️☣️☣️

So okay. Basically that kid havent stopped talking since we got here. He's noisy. But it suits him. And kinda cute.

I chuckled as I returned the book from the shelves where I got them.

Baekhyun is with me. Returning to books too.

"Where are they?" I asked him.

"Who?" He a brow, looking up at me.

"The one youre bugging earlier." I simply said.

"Eyy, Im not bugging them. Suho and I are now friends." He knits his brows. "And they went ahead." He added.

I nodded in response. "Are you free for today?"

"Mmmm I need to study- wae?" He said, pouting. Ofcourse he needs to study. All he did here is to talk and talk and talk.

He didnt even got to read a single sentence from the book. Silly.

"Is that so? I was hoping for a meal. Im hungry." I said. I need to make the first move now. Lmao. Wish me luck.

"Meal? Alright lets go. Those books can wait." He laughs. 

Aigoo this kid. I should admit this by now. Yep, I have a crush on him. This is not the first time though. So I know when Im feeling something for someone.

☣️☣️☣️☣️☣️
At the restaurant
☣️☣️☣️☣️☣️

"What would you like to eat?" I asked as we are sitted.

"Mmm lets see." He looks at the menu. "I'll go with fried chicken."

I looked at him. A kid's menu? Seriously?

I shook my head then calls for the waiter. Ordering a single menu of fried chicken and rice for Baek and samgyeopsal for me.

"So whats up?" I asked him. Ofcourse I dont wanna be awkward with him. And I wanna get to him too.

"Mmm? Adjusting with the people here. I mean Seoul." He exclaimed.

"You're gonna love it here." I smiled at him. Wiggling my brows. What? Mom said I look cute doing that. Not as cute as Yeollie but wtv.

"I hope so. And Im still not familiar with the places." He said.

"No worries. Ill take you to places when we got free time." Nice Chan. Smooth. 

"Oh oh sure. I would love to." He smiled widely.

Nice one. Thats one point for me. I guess. This first step is going well.

"But first. The only rule here in Seoul is Dont Trust Strangers. Arrachi?" I said. And Im serious. Strangers here may take advantage if you do.

"So I cant trust you?" He asked.

Wha-

"Ofcourse you can trust me. Idiot. We're friends now right?" Yep. Friends. Mom said being friends is the first stairstep on getting into relationship. Cheesy.

"Im glad I can trust you, Chan." He smiled. But then he added something

"But you cant trust me."

☣️☣️☣️☣️☣️
Tomorrow Morning
☣️☣️☣️☣️☣️

That statement of Baek has been bugging me since last night. And I couldnt sleep well.

I cant trust him? Why?

And now that I thought about it. His voice is awfully familiar. . But I cant remember where I heard that!

Damn. Im just gonna shake that off. I need to study.

☣️☣️☣️☣️☣️
BAEKHYUN POV
☣️☣️☣️☣️☣️

I sighed. Should I still do it? Ahh Im frustrated. Im here at my veranda. In my dorm. Just thinking. Stuff and and others.

I groaned then tosses the cigarette Im smoking into the trashbin. Time to go to school.

I went back inside then takes my shirt off. Standing in front of the mirror, I looked at the scar on my chest. 

Damn.

I shook my head when the memories came flooding my mind once again. Naaaaah!

I took a deep breath before walking to the bath. I need a cold shower.

After taking bath. I put on my clothes. Another day at school. Wish me luck.

On the way to my room. A man blocked my way. Its Junmyeon. I smiled.

"Hey goodmorningggggg!" I said. I need to be cheerful here.

"Good morning baek. Do you have time? I need you for something." He said.

I looked at my wrist watch. Still early.

"Yep. I do. A lot of time actually. What is it?" I asked.

"Come." He said then dragged me.

"Yaaah. Slow down" I yelled.

We came into the auditorium. I wonder why-

"Hey you see that?" Junmyeon points a group of men. Oh.

I can see the tan man Chan is talking with yesterday.

"Ahuh." I nodded.

He held my head and moved it to the left. "Theres Lay, see?" 

"Oh yeah yeah." Lay is sitting in a corner. With usual headphones on.

"Lay just got into that dance club. Its been a while since he danced. And Im so happy he wanted to dance again." He revealed.

"Oh. And so?" I said. I dont really like Lay for Suho. Hmp. Mean man.

"I want to surprise him. Congratulatory celebration." He said. Smiling to himself.

"Okaaay? What does it have to do with me?" I asked.

"I dont know what Lay likes." He said. "for what I know, Chan, Lay and Kai are friends. And youre close with Chan."

Blinks. I think I know what he's going to say.

"Oh okay okay. I get it. But I dont want to. Lay doesnt deserve it." I said. Shaking my head and crossing my arms.

"Please? Do it for me please?" He pleaded. "We're friends right?"

Gad-

"This will make me happy, Baek." He added.

"Fine fine. Ill come up with something." I said in defeat.

"Yay thanks baek!" He taps my back.
"I need to go now to prepare the cake. Im baking it by myself." He said then dashes off.

Okaaay? So I need Chan's help.

☣️☣️☣️☣️☣️
CHAN POV
☣️☣️☣️☣️☣️

I was dozing off in our classroom with earphones on when someone poked me.

I turned to look at whoever it is and its Baekhyun. Smiling as he was always.

I raised my brow then he smiled more.

"Uhhh perhaps- you wanna go grab some fruitshake?" He said.

Is he asking me out? Nice. But he's too fast.

"For what?" I asked.

"I was just wondering if you wanna join me." He simply said.

Aigoo dont smile like that. I can feel my heart thumping loud.

"Okay." I nodded.

"Yes! Lets go." He said then grabbed my wrist. Tugging my clothes then dragged me to the cafeteria.

He ordered two strawberry shake for us. We sitted in the corner table, opposite to each other.

"So whats up? Why so sudden?" I said. I mean yeah. Why? Why suddenly asked for date. 

Yeah. I consider this a date. Lmao.

"Uhh I was wondering- maybe you could help me-" He said in an awkward tone. Playing with the strands of his hair.

I raised a brow. He wants something, eh?

"Maybe-- just maybe. Help me with Lay? Just you know- his favorite food and such. Colors or-" He said. Making me knit my brows.

He likes Lay?

"I dont think I can help with that." I bluntly said.

"Ehhh?! But youre his friend! Help me juseyoooo!" He held my hand thats on the table.

Why do I feel betrayed? And whats with Lay? Damn. I look better arent I?

"No. Just no. I dont want." I took my hand. Rolling my eyes as I take a sip from my fruitshake.

"Ehh?! But I badly need to make a surprise for him" He pouted. Nah dont make that face.

And surpise? ing surprise? i havent seen them together yet. And whats with the surprise? Ah .

.

"Pleeeaaaaaseeee!" He whined. Gad this kid. How to say no?

"Fine. Fetch your things back in the room. Lets go to the mall." I sighed in defeat. I dont think I can say no to him. 

. I hate this feeling. I feel dumped. I feel horrible. Yep. I hate this day even more.

"Neee. I'll go get yours too. Wait me here!" He said the sprinted away.

Damn. I need to talk to Lay.

☣️☣️☣️☣️☣️
At the mall
☣️☣️☣️☣️☣️

"Yah whats with all of these?!" He whined once again. Pfft.

Youre making a surprise for someone right? Now carry all the stuff youre going to use. Lmao.

"He likes when a surprise for him is fancy. And he likes it blue. So you basically needs to decorate the whole room." I said with my hands on my pockets, walking like a cool kid I am.

"Argh this is too heady for me!" He protests. "Yah a lil help?" 

I looked at him. He's now carrying 6 big paperbags in each hand. Lol you deserved that lil one.

"Aww yah-" I placed a finger on his mouth. He looks surprised.

"Sssssh. Quite and wait me here. Gotta pee." I said then points at the restroom sign just above my head.

"Fine." He huffed.

I chuckled then heads inside. Lmao he looks more cute when he's annoyed.

☣️☣️☣️☣️☣️
BAEKHYUN POV
☣️☣️☣️☣️☣️

Damn I cant believe that tall elf. Imma tear him apart after this. For sure!

I stomped my feet then puts the bags down for a bit. Arghh my shouder hurts.

Lets see. Chan made me buy a lot of things here. Balloons, Party stuffs and the likes. And he made me used my money. 

Gad imma tell Suho to pay me back. He looks like some kind of a rich kid after all.

And this surprise for that Lay. Im not really interested in it but I made a good friend through Suho. So i'll do what I can to help him.

And I'll break his neck when my friend cried in the end.

Its not Lay's fault though- its Suho who keeps on trying and trying to get closer to him-

Oh well. Im starting to lose my head. Ive been talking a lot lately and I even talk to myself like whats happening right now-

AaaaAaaaaaaAaaa

I noticed a tall guy coming out of the room and its him.

He's looking at his phone and dont seem to notice me so I blocked his way.

"Hey lets go back. And help me with that." I said then pointed the paperbags where I left them.

He looked at me. To the bags and looked back at me. He's like some kind of a clueless dog.

"Uhhh me?" He said pointing at himself.

"Yes you. You made me buy all those stuff." He raised my brow. Crossing my arms. Whats with him?

"Ahh you must be mistaken-" He was cut off when someone appoached us. I looked at him. He's fair and tall. Who is this one. Damn I look so smol standing with these two-

"Hey hyung. Whats wrong? And who is he?" The man said to Chan. And then looked at me.

"Mollaayoo Sehunieee. He blocked my way and told me to carry things for him. He's mean.....and weird." He said to the man called Sehunie. And he literally whispered the last statement but I heard it. Darn this guy-

And something's weird though. The way he talks--- is so aegyo-ishㅡ

"What do you mean you dont know? You came here with me." I raised my voice. Ahh he's starting to get into my nerves.

"Huh? Hyung came here with me." That Sehunie butted in.

Ehh?

I was about to grab that annoying man's collar when I noticed the name plate on his polo.

박열이

Park Yeollie? 

I was pretty sure Chan's name plate is 박찬.

But I swear this is him-

"Mwoya what do you think youre doing?" A hand tapped my shoulder.

I looked back and it was Chan.

Wait what?

I looked at my friend and theres the other Chan. Tilting his own head.

Am I seeing things?

I was totally speechless. Jaw dropped actually.

"Hey Chaaan. Whats up?" The other Chan said. Even his voice is totally the same.

"Just bought some stuff. And you, whatre you doing here?" I looked again to the real Chan.

"I came to play with Hunnie!" He said, giggling.

"Yep. And I am pretty exhausted by the way." The Sehuniie tall namja said.

I didnt noticed the Chan is now carrying the bags earlier.

"So you two are twins? Waaaah- daekbaaak yah Chan-" Before I could say more, Chan dragged me away from his twin.

Oh this is so cool. I never met twins before. Just tvs and internet pictures.

"See you later bro." Chan said to the other Chan. 

Wahh! I cant believe this.

"Yah your twin looks a lot softer than you. You evil-" 

"Yeah yeah." He said in annoyance.

Oh I should know them more.

☣️☣️☣️☣️☣️
SEHUN POV
☣️☣️☣️☣️☣️

Is Chan hyung already seeing someone? I feel sad.

I dont know. I can just see Yeollie hyung in him. And seeing him holding hands with someone-

what am I saying?!

"Hunnie lets play more!" Yeollie hyung said.

"Ahh hyung Im already tired." I complained.

Weve been playing for like hours already. And we tried everything from the arcade.

"Just a bit more pleeeaseeee?" He pouted. Hugging my arm. And that made me red.

"Yah hyung we're in public!" I said. Trying to remove his arms from mine.

"Ihhhh so whaaat?" He said.

"People are staring." I said silently. Covering my burning cheeks with my free hand.

"Ehh dont mind them. I dont mind skinships with my bestfriend." He said. Nodding to himself.

And reality struck me.

Yeah. We're just friends.

For Yeollie hyung. Im his bestfriend.

He's the department president. For him Im just his vice pres.

I cant cross that line. And will never do.

Its sad that Im always here for him. But he will never be there the way I want him to be.

I can be his vice pres, studybuddy, playmate, his human diary. But being his lover is different from that. I guess I will never get to experience being his other half.

Why do I fell inlove with this man? Im pretty sure Im straight when I entered the university.

I was competitive boy. With a competitive spirit. I dont want anyone blocking my way in the dean's list and the most valuable students. But I dont mind stepping down or giving way for hyung. Thats why Im happy being just the second in command.

He's a brat. A troll. A crybaby. Woefully ignorant. Tell me why, can you?

I looked down when I felt him removed his arms from me and run off to somewhere.

"Hey Huuuun! Incredibles 2! Lets watch it!" He shouted from somewhere. Damn this guy is never shy is he?

I took a deep breath before running to his place.

"You sure? You can just watch it with Chan or Chanchan hyung in the house. I can download for you." I said.

"Ehh? No want. Chanchan is too mean to watch with me. And Chan is I guess busy with his new namjachingu." He pouted. "And I wanna watch it with you." he added.

He sure knew how to use words well. He always know what's the right words to say.

Little things leaving big impact in me. In my heart.

"Alright alright." I smiled. 

He chuckled then dragged me into the ticketing booth.

Another romantic gestures and ideas from him. Sadly, he didnt know that I think about these that way.

☣️☣️☣️☣️☣️
Tomorrow Morning
☣️☣️☣️☣️☣️

☣️☣️☣️☣️☣️
CHAN POV
☣️☣️☣️☣️☣️

So we're here now. Actually the three of us. 

With Baekhyun and another short guy. I think this is Suho back in the library. The guy Baekhyun kept on talking with.

Im literally scoffing from time to time. Surprise for Lay? Psssh.

The room is now well decorated in blue party stuff. Baekhyun did a lot of effort here ya know 

He's the one incharge of decorating the corners of the room while Suho prepares the banners.

Banners really? Its just a surprise for something I dont even know why they are doing it.. All I know is its for Lay.

Yeah. I should disown him as a friend-

Before I could kill him in my mind- he came.Looking confused on whats going on.

"Why did you invite me here?" He said. Looking at Suho. Oh its Suho? Not Baek?

"Ah Lay. I just wanted to surprise you. Congratulations on getting into the dance teeeeam!" Suho cheered.

"Surpriseeee!" Baek screamed.

Just that? They prepared a celebration for that?

Lay took a deep breathe. "What is this again, Junmyeon?" He asked in annoyance. Blankly looking at Suho.

"Come on. Its just a celebration. Come. I baked your favorite cake. Caramel cakeee!" He said then turned to get the cake. Showing it to Lay in his arms.

I heard Lay clicked his tongue then slapped Junmyeon's hand. Making me widen my eyes in shock.

The cake fell!

whats with him?

"What do you think youre doing?! What is this nonsense?!" Lay raised his voice.

Baek and I were speechless. Its like a drama we're watching.

"I-i just wanted to make you happy." Suho's voice is shaking as he looked down at the wasted cake. "And you t-told me to whatever I want."

"Yeah whatever you want. Just dont bug me. And now youre annoying the hell out of me!" He looked at Suho with disgust.

Dude he's crossing the line. Making someone cry is total taboo.

"I-im sorry. I wont do this again." Junmyeon apologized. Tears is running down his cheeks.

"Never again. Cause I want you out of my sight you got me. Dont ever come near me again, you understand?" He said, pointing suho's face.

"God youre unbelievable Junmyeon. How many times do I have to tell you? I. Dont. Like. You. You disgust me. ." He spits then walks out of the room.

....That was mean. I never saw Lay being like that. He's usually quite.

"Yah Chan did you see what just happened?!" Baek is in rage. " him. Seriously. Argh why does he have to do that?" 

"Thats argh- Suho im apologizing in behalf of him. I didnt think he'd be this mean to you." I said.

"L-lay." Suho muttered then dashes out of the room. He went where Lay made his way.

"Wait- yaaah! He told you to stop following him! Wait!" Baek yelled then dashes after him. Stopping after few steps.

"And Chan! Thank you for the help. Ill call you later." He said then followed Suho.

I blinked. What did just happened again?

Oh well Im relieved that it wasnt Baek who liked him. 

If its him then he did that too, I'll be more happy to break his neck.

My phone beeped. It was a message from Chanchan. 

'Come home Chan. We need to talk about something.'

Hmmm? What could that be about?

☣️☣️☣️☣️☣️
At the dorm
☣️☣️☣️☣️☣️

It was almost 7pm when I got home. 
I saw Chanchan sitting in the couch and Yeollie playing playstation.

"Im home." I said to get their attention.

"Ayoooo!" Yeollie greeted without looking at me. Focused on the video game.

"Have a seat." Chanchan said, crossing his arms and legs. Looking dead serious.

"Eyy whats with the atmosphere here?" I joked.

"Chan. Yeol is coming back. He'll be here by tomorrow." He said. Looking at me.

I felt- mad. Or happy. I dont know. Mixed emotions.

Since he left after the year of the tradegy. And hasnt contacted anyone from the past years. That made me mad.

Happy because. We'll be complete again. Parks as four.

I dont know. I cant wait to see him again.
