Note: It's not necessary to read this chapter to continue understanding the story as a whole, but it's a little bonus extra. ^^ I altered a single line in Two Sugars to bring this to life and tie everything together - the case Junmyeon won for Sehun’s father was back in Revelations. This begins not long after that and then flows through both the fics. (Ret-conning a tiny piece of my own canon. Eep! <3)  This is to be read after Chapter 6 in Two Sugars.

"Baekhyun, stop. Let Junmyeon have his private life.”

Baekhyun settles back onto his haunches, eyes wide and pleading, jittery like a live wire with a desperate need for answers to his little mystery. He’s almost bouncing on the spot. But he obediently doesn’t keep prying and Chanyeol tugs him back to sit down beside himself.

That’s what makes Junmyeon unfold. “Sehun is just the son of an old client.” He swallows some of his beer but Kyungsoo can see the blush on the tops of his ears clear as day. Vastly different to the professional tone he’d heard in the office when the two of them had had their brief exchange earlier that afternoon. It makes Kyungsoo take a thoughtful bite of his dinner. That blush matched Sehun’s from earlier today in the work kitchen. Perhaps the feelings went both ways, even if Junmyeon was keeping his distance.

“Do you like him?” Baekhyun blurts out. Chanyeol’s hand comes to rest against the back of his neck and Baekhyun falls silent again, wiggling. Junmyeon’s blush expands from his ears to the peaches of his cheeks.

“The Oh family are powerful and complicated,” is the only answer Baekhyun gets. Junmyeon takes a moment, eyes on the floor. “But Sehun is a good kid.”
