Girl Problems

Waiting In The Clouds

“Baekhyun-ah! Baekhyun-ah!” Chanyeol exclaims excitedly as he runs over to see him at the cafeteria. After Baekhyun had forgiven Chanyeol, the two decided to be official friends. Baekhyun thought they would just occasionally say hi to each other on campus, maybe chat a little here and there. But no, Park Chanyeol just proved himself to be a big softie.

 

“Here it comes,” Baekhyun sighed as he is embraced in a bone-crushing hug, Chanyeol’s scent was all over him. In the beginning, Baekhyun was shocked, he felt as if his eyes could pop out of their sockets from the sudden gesture of friendship. But now, he had grown used to it, and even Jongdae and Minseok learnt to stifle their laughter.

 

“Hey, Baekhyun! How are you!” Chanyeol greets Baekhyun enthusiastically, his smile genuine and sincere. Baekhyun laughs, it has been a month since the birthday incident, and Chanyeol is still clingy as ever.

 

“I’m good, we were just talking about the upcoming university festival.” Baekhyun replies, looking at the leaflets in his hand.

 

“Baekhyun is going to crossdress!” Jongdae suddenly exclaims, causing Baekhyun to turn a bright shade of red - this was so embarrassing. 

 

The festival cafe is probably the most popular booth at the University’s festival every year - some of the previous students have dressed up as sailor moon, in onesies and more. This year, the student organizers decided to use high school uniforms, and claimed that there were not enough girls stationed at the festival cafe booth. 

 

Jongdae being the good best friend he is, volunteers Baekhyun for the role.

 

“W-what?” Chanyeol’s eyes widened, shocked at what he just heard. Byun Baekhyun, in a girl’s uniform?

 

“I told them that it was a bad idea,” Baekhyun whined, but he had no say, especially when Jongdae was the one who gave the idea to the student organizers. Baekhyun had a slim and chic figure, he would definitely fit in a woman’s dress! Was what he said, and they bought it.

 

“I was almost voted to crossdress instead, thanks Baekhyun-ah!” Minseok chuckled as he scooped another spoon of his yoghurt parfait. Baekhyun pouted at the teasing, he was honestly looking forward to the University festival, but maybe not now.

*Two weeks later*

 

“Baekhyun, here’s your uniform, get changed and meet us later to get your hair and makeup done. See ya!” The chief student organizer, Yoo jung, tossed the uniform at Baekhyun, who looked like he could pass out from the nerves. Baekhyun had two weeks of sleepless nights, scared of what others would think, yet excited to try out a new image. Minjun also caught up on his hyung’s nervousness, and being the good boy he is, he gave his favourite elephant plushie to his hyung, because he claims that it makes him feel calm.

 

Baekhyun grabs the uniform, and he cringes when he sees the white fabric with the blue stripes. Thanks so much, Jongdae. However, it has left Baekhyun with no choice, he might as well experiment with this and try to enjoy the experience overall. With a sigh, Baekhyun starts to get dressed.

 

-

 

“Ohmygod, Baekhyun, you look amazing!” Yoo Jung cheers as he just had his hair and makeup done. They had put in colored contacts to make his eyes stand out, with a bit of eyeliner and blush. And to top it off, they put a brown wig on him, curling it at the ends to give it that perfect final touch. Baekhyun couldn’t help but blush once all eyes were on him, it was as if they’ve never seen a girl before. He couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

 

“Baekhyun! We’re here!” Jongdae shouts with his usual loud voice, Baekhyun’s eyes widened as he realised he has brought all their friends here - Minseok, Junmyeon and Yixing. Baekhyun’s pupils were shaking, his friends were going to laugh at him.

 

“Eh? Where’s Baekhyun?” The four males scanned the room, until Junmyeon made eye contact with a very familiar looking face. Junmyeon’s lips curl into a smile, and he points excitedly at the ‘female’.

 

“There he is! Baekhyun, you look great!” 

 

All four of them walk to Baekhyun’s direction, and suddenly Baekhyun feels really shy. He doesn’t know why either. Maybe it’s because of how tight the dress is.

 

Jongdae looked so so proud, like a proud mother hen. He knew Baekhyun would look good in a school uniform, there was no doubt. And now that he has seen it for himself, it was much better than he had expected, Baekhyun could even be a model at this point. 

 

“Guys, stop drooling and thank me! I did this!” Jongdae cheers as the rest crowd around Baekhyun, asking him how he got his hair done and why he looked so good both in male and female form.

 

“Yah, I’m still annoyed that you made me do this.” Baekhyun comments with a pout, playfully hitting at Jongdae’s shoulder. The others cooed, Baekhyun’s cuteness always struck a chord in their hearts.

 

“You’ll thank me later!”

 

-

The festival has just started and hundreds of people have started flowing in from the University’s main gate. Baekhyun has been stationed at the cafe along with the other female undergraduates, waiting for their first customer of the day. It was indeed awkward being the only male, while the rest of the girls chatted he could only listen. What scared him was that Seo Hyun was there too along with her girl friends, and he knows she’s always up to no good.

The glare he received the moment he walked in was already a sign.

 

But the ‘good news’ is that Baekhyun is good at his role, he memorized all the orders and didn’t get a single one wrong. And on top of that, he may or may not have accidentally made the customers fall for him.

 

“Sir, what can I get you today?” Baekhyun speaks softly, bending down to the man’s level. 

 

“U-uh I’ll get the strawberry frappe with the roll cake,” The man stuttered, he felt his heart beating so rapidly as this girl spoke to him in the most gentle voice, and the way she looked at him with her bright eyes made him swoon.

 

“Excellent choice sir! The strawberry frappe is my favourite too,” Baekhyun commented, not knowing that the man is already head over heels for him. The magic of make-up. Baekhyun proceeds to collect the menus, and a few minutes later he brings back the man’s order.

 

“C-can I have your number?” The male asked, his friend nudged him teasingly on the side.

 

“Eh?” Baekhyun couldn’t help but blush, he couldn’t believe that he is being hit on, as a girl!

 

“Are you single?”

 

“N-no, I am um….taken,” Baekhyun lied, not wanting the excited looking man to get the shock of his life once he takes off this uncomfortable wig and tight uniform. Baekhyun quickly smiles at them once more before turning away. However being the clumsy person he is, Baekhyun did not notice the tall and sturdy man before him and as a result, he crashes hard against the taller’s chest.

 

“Ah! I’m really sorry-” Chanyeol quickly muttered multiple apologies, hoping that the girl he knocked into was not hurt. The student looks up at Chanyeol with his big brown eyes, and Chanyeol couldn’t help but feel captivated by the smaller’s pretty face. The way her hair swayed elegantly, and her fingers were so small and delicate. Chanyeol had the urge to cup her cheek, and give this beautiful girl a nice hug. However, something irked within Chanyeol, there was something familiar about this beauty-

 

Wait. No ing way.

 

“Baekhyun?” Chanyeol’s eyes widened, and he proceeded to blink a few times. Because no way, that Baekhyun could execute this image so perfectly, and Baekhyun’s groan was a sign that it was definitely him. Now Chanyeol couldn’t help but feel shivers down his spine. Because Baekhyun looked so beautiful, so so beautiful. He was practically ing on Baekhyun with his eyes.

 

“Chanyeol, what are you doing here?” Baekhyun asked, feeling extremely embarrassed. He has just been hit on by some random guy, and now Chanyeol decides to show up and see him in a short skirt.

 

“U-Um I’m j-just here to see Seo Hyun, but you look great!” Chanyeol complements at the beet red Baekhyun. 

 

“Very beautiful,” Chanyeol suddenly continued, making Baekhyun blush even harder. This crossdressing thing has probably gone way too far, everybody is confessing to him. 

 

Seo Hyun glared at the two from the corner of the room, she was not even interested in serving drinks anymore, her jealousy overpowered from seeing Chanyeol smiling at Baekhyun, and it’s not just that, somehow Baekhyun has been the customer’s top pick, that should’ve been her! 

 

“Wow...Baekhyun really looks so good as a girl.” Seo Hyun’s friend, Ha Eun, comments. Seo Hyun nudges her harshly, telling her to ‘think clearly before speaking’. This only made her jealousy grow, she wanted to get rid of him, now.

 

Seo Hyun asks Ha Eun to come closer, ordering her to remove the ‘pest’ so that she can be with Chanyeol. Ha Eun smirks as sneaks a blue slushie in her hand, attempting to spill it all over Baekhyun’s clothes.

 

Ha eun walks up to the two slowly, hoping she could find the right time to ‘accidentally’ bump into Baekhyun, and ultimately spilling the cool, blue contents all over him, resulting in his embarrassment and humiliation.

 

Just as Ha Eun was about to strike the cup, her eyes widened as a forceful grip suddenly latches onto her wrist, causing her to spill the slushie onto the ground. Everybody turned their heads at the scene, surprised to see Park corporations’ Park Chanyeol glaring at a female student.

 

“What do you think you’re doing?” Chanyeol snarled, pulling Baekhyun behind him. Baekhyun would have pushed him away from how cheesy this is turning out to be, but he too was shocked at what had just happened. 

 

“I-I...I just..” Ha Eun was shaking in fear, she had never spoken to Park Chanyeol before, and now she has finally seen it for herself - Chanyeol was indeed scary when he was angry.

 

“Get lost before I say something I regret,” Chanyeol ordered, causing Ha Eun to run away, tears b in her eyes. Chanyeol knew better than to erupt in his furious state, not when everyone’s watching, and not when he’s trying to protect his friend. Chanyeol quickly turns back to Baekhyun, hands on his shoulders.

 

“Baekhyun, are you okay? Did she get any of that drink on you?” Chanyeol scans the smaller’s clothes, a small blush creeping onto his cheeks. Anyone looking at them right now would probably think he was a ert.

 

“Chanyeol, I’m fine, thanks for helping me.” Baekhyun smiles, assuring Chanyeol. It was funny seeing how worried Chanyeol looked, it’s cute.

 

“Okay then be safe! I have to go back to my own event,” Chanyeol waves. In the end, he didn’t get the chance to say hi to Seo Hyun, causing the girl to whine angrily, her plan backfired after all.

 

“Ha Eun, this is all your fault!”

-

“Seo Hyun, can I speak to you for a minute?” Chanyeol walks over to her after the festival, hands clasped together.

 

“Chanyeol! I missed you! What’s up?” Seo Hyun batted her lashes, going closer to her boyfriend. She tried to wrap her arms around the waist, but the gesture is quickly rejected by the taller.

 

“Look, I know that you were behind the incident this afternoon.” Chanyeol suddenly says on a serious note, alarming Seo Hyun and causing her smile to sink.

 

“And you were the one who misinformed me about Baekhyun back then, straining our friendship,” Chanyeol glared, Seo Hyun walked backwards, back hitting against the wall.

 

“H-hey Chanyeol I was just trying to protect you, Baekhyun is not one of us!” Seo Hyun reasoned, trying to pry her hands onto Chanyeol’s. Chanyeol was having none of it, and shook her hand away.

 

“I should’ve broken up with you already, but I was nice enough to give you a second chance,” Chanyeol retorts, Seo Hyun shakes her head feverishly. It couldn’t end like this. She goes on her knees, grabbing Chanyeol’s hands close.

 

“C-Chanyeol! I can still change! It doesn’t have to be this way,” Seo Hyun cries, how embarrassing it would be for her to get dumped by the University’s most popular guy.

 

“Enough! You’re not in the right mind, your lack of trust and inherent jealousy is always the problem, even when I’m with friends, you’re jealous. And how could you even think about harming Baekhyun? He’s innocent! We’re done.” Chanyeol snarls, and leaves quickly, leaving Seo Hyun to breathe heavily, her feet stomping the ground like a toddler. The torment and frustration was clear in her eyes.

 

Welp, now that Seo Hyun is out of the picture, Chanyeol is single again. And somehow, he is glad, because right now, he couldn’t get the image of Baekhyun in a tight girls’ school uniform  out of his mind.
