Island Truce

Boys over Towers

 

      Baekhyun had woken up to a call from Luhan. He groggily extended his arm towards the table and grabbed his phone, flipping it open to reveal Luhan on the other line.

      “Where are you?!” It wasn’t that loud but Baekhyun couldn’t help but flinch. “It’s 8:45 am, we’re leaving in 15 minutes!”

      Baekhyun looked at his phone and squinted to see the time better. When he had confirmed that it was 8:45, his eyes bulged and he had grabbed the bag he had packed the night earlier. He ran downstairs shouting a quick greeting to his parents, who shouted a Take care! as he ran through the door.

      Baekhyun felt himself sprint towards school. He was kind of worried that he may have left something important, but shrugged it off. He hadn’t brought any female clothes since 1) He didn’t any and 2) It wasn’t a trip along with everyone else in their school so he was safe.

      By the time he stepped into school grounds, he could spot a helicopter parked one the grass. At the edge of the door was Luhan, signaling Baekhyun to hurry up you little or we’re going to leave you.

      Baekhyun hurriedly ran to the side and hoped unto the free chair beside Chanyeol, just as the helicopter lifted off.

      The helicopter ride was just the ride to the airport. They had gotten down the helicopter and were filing into the plane when they heard voices from behind them.

      They all instinctively turned around and saw four boys wearing normal clothes and bags strapped to their bodies. “Where do you think you guys are going? You’re not allowed to do any other trip without the proper guidance of an authoritarian from the school.”

      “God damn it, Suho. Please leave us alone.” Luhan said as he threw an empty bottle of water in the Student Council’s direction. “You’re not allowed to go if we can’t go with you.” Jong Dae said as he folded his arms over his chest.

      Luhan looked at Kris who gave an exasperated look, rolled his eyes and nodded. “Fine, get on. But you better not bug us.” He glared at the president for one last time and entered the plane, the rest following suit.

      They had all taken up their seats, Kris, next to Tao and across them Luhan and Sehun (which he had to drag to sit next to him.) In another part of the plane was Baekhyun and Chanyeol, across them Jongin and the Vice-President of the student council, Do Kyungsoo. Yixing was devastated when he saw Jongin grab Kyungsoo by the arm, and infuriated when he had to sit beside the student council president himself.

      Jongdae and Minseok took the chairs across the president and Yixing, not saying a word as they stared at each other.

      Baekhyun couldn’t help but swallow at the sight of the student council. Why were they here? Were they planning something? Baekhyun was too immersed in thought that he was completely ignoring the fact that Chanyeol had lifted the armrest and was leaning his head against Baekhyun’s shoulder, making him bend in a weird way. He was a bit too long to rest his head on the shorter boy’s shoulder, but he didn’t mind.

      Baekhyun sighed at the unsightly sight of Chanyeol, and closed his eyes, hoping he would drift off to sleep.

      Before he realized it, they had already made a touch down on Kris’ “private island” and Chanyeol was swaying Baekhyun awake. “Baekieeee, we’re here.” Baekhyun slowly opened his eyes at the still half-asleep Chanyeol, and looked around to see the half-empty jet.

      He stood up and dragged Chanyeol along with him, out into the brighter setting. Baekhyun had to shield his eyes from coming in close contact with the sun, whilt he saw everyone wearing shades. Rich bastards, Baekhyun mumbled. When he saw Sehun sporting shades too, he kind of didn’t suspect anything. Sehun wasn’t as poor as him, he was middle class. Baekhyun shrugged and just continued to use his hand a makeshift pair of shades.

      Chanyeol saw that Baekhyun didn’t have his own pair and rummaged trough his bag, easily grabbing a pair of ray bans and slipping unto the bridge of Baekhyun’s nose. Baekhyun flinched and looked up at Chanyeol, who returned his confused like with a smile. “It’s easier this way.” Chanyeol shrugged and grabbed Baekhyun’s arm, dragging him towards the direction of the group.

      They were walking at the beach area and had come across a big villa, as Baekhyun described it. He didn’t expect any less though, knowing that Kris’ actually had his own private island.

      They one by one got into the villa. It was probably the same size as Luhan’s house, but a bit more tropical looking and wide. “Alright, the floor plan. Since the student council rudely invited themselves to our trip, we’re going to have to share rooms.” Everyone shrugged, it didn’t really matter if they had to share a room with another person.

      “So yeah, you guys just decide amongst yourselves who sleeps with who. I have 6 rooms all in all, and we’re exactly twelve. So yeah, have fun.” Kris said as he grabbed Tao by the arm and dragged him into one of the rooms. That room isn’t an option then, Baekhyun said as he chuckled.

      By the time they finished everyone already had their own roommates. Sehun had begged for Baekhyun to share a room, so he agreed. He sent a frowning Chanyeol and apologetic smile. Chanyeol couldn’t help but frown some more but shrugged it off and shared a room with equally disappointed Luhan.

      “So… do you want to share a room, or something?” Jongin said as he stood beside a fidgeting Kyungsoo. Kyungsoo didn’t look up and was fiddling with the zipper of his jacket. Jongin cleared his throat and repeated what he said, finally gaining Kyungsoo’s attention. “You were talking to me?”

      Jongin couldn’t help but laugh at the adorable expression the doe-eyed boy made. “Yeah, I was.” He bore his teeth. “Y-yeah, alright.” Kyungsoo said as he want back to fiddling with his jacket’s zipper.

      Yixing saw Jongin ask Kyungsoo, so he was out of luck. Minseok and Jongdae had already partnered up and he was left with the of a president. “God damn it.” He mumbled as he entered the room with the annoying, red-haired boy.

      Everyone had gone into their rooms and Baekhyun couldn’t help but sigh at the look of Luhan and Chanyeol as they all met up back at the dining area for dinner.

      Luhan was frowning, the edges of his mouth seemingly hooked by string and was weighed down by a bag of rocks. His eyebrows were scrunched into a V and Baekhyun could have sworn he could see wrinkles appear on his perfect forehead.

      Chanyeol, on the other hand, had a different approach for his stubbornness. He simply didn’t smile. Not smiling wasn’t a big deal, if you weren’t Park Chanyeol. He had a straight face the whole time at dinner, making the other steal looks at him as he peacefully ate.

      Sehun didn’t react in any particular way. He was busy admiring the amount of food Kris’ had especially brought out for them. “Woah.” He heard Sehun whisper as a large tray of crabs were brought from the kitched and were laid across him.

      Baekhyun was carefully observing the student council now, completely conscious of what they were planning to do. Suho was quietly picking at his plate as Kyungsoo was stealing glances at… Jongin? Jongin was actually returning these glances with a shy smile, something Baekhyun had never seen Jongin do. He shrugged this off and turned to Jongdae who was poking one of the still moving lobsters on his plate.

      “Dude, that is totally raw.” Minseok said as he watched the lobster walk off Jongdae’s plate.

      The rest of the dinner was a quite one. Baekhyun could feel the tension between the two different groups, him and Sehun sitting in between. Kris would constantly glare into the direction of Suho, who was sitting right across him. The two had taken up the last two chairs at the right and the left of table. It was like there had been a sitting arrangement and he and Sehun was the wall that separated the two opposite groups.

      “So… what’re we going to do tomorrow?” Baekhyun asked, trying his best to break the silence. When no one bothered to reply, he had directly asked Kris what’s the best thing to do on the island.

      “I don’t know, there are a bunch of stuff at the beach.” He said, not tearing his glare from Suho. Baekhyun sighed, that really didn’t answer his question. It was usually Luhan who would jump into the conversation and help him out, but this time, Luhan was part of the oh my god I’m so mad I’m going to make this awkward circle. He was one of the new members, along with Chanyeol.

      When Baekhyun had had enough, he quickly wiped his mouth and pushed his chair, carrying his plate along with him. “If you guys are going to be like this for the whole trip, I don’t think it’s going to be fun at all.” He said, not turning around to say it and headed back to his room, slamming it shut.

      The tension of his words lingered in the room as Kris finally tore his glare and turned to the sad looking Tao. Kris hadn’t realized that he wasn’t paying that much attention to the boy beside him, and he felt horrible. He scratched his head and said something loud enough for even Baekhyun to hear from his room.

      “Alright, since we’re already here, let’s have a temporary truce.” Kris said as he looked back at Suho. Suho lifted his head to meet Kris’ gaze, a smirk marked on his face. “What if we disagree?”

      Kris felt his face go from a determined one to a bored one. “Then I kick you off the island without any transportation to go back to Seoul, easy as that.” Altogether, the members of the student council swallowed what they were eating. “God damn it, Suho! Swallow your pride for once.” Jongdae said as he shouted at the man beside him.

      Suho felt his back slouch in defeat. “A-alright, only for now.” He said as he put back his fork and wiped his mouth. “It’s a truce.”

Okay so I'm trying my best to squeeze in Kaisoo, as it wasn't really part of my original plan but over time I actually find the two of them together cute so I decided to add them a few chapters back. I couldn't find the best condition to insert them into the story so I'm sorry I just planted them in now :-(

Sorry my upload pace began to slow down a bit, I'm currently experience the horrible disease which is writer's block. :-(

Thank you very much for reading and subscribing!
