The Ice Princess & Her 12 Suitors

Since yesterday after what Chanyeol has said, you couldn't help but wonder what had made the happy-go-lucky Baekhyun upset, or, moreover, who made him upset. It was rather quite strange for him to be acting like this. You wanted to see if he was alright, and you were about to just knock on the door before going in to your own room, but you decided to just leave him alone since you didn't want to provoke his anger or made him even more upset.

 

'Its been a month now since their arrival. Time flies incredibly quick, but it's not like I was having fun. Winter is coming up, and it's getting very cold lately. I had treated the boys to the chef's special hot chocolate after they had interrupted me watching TV, then they kept on complaining about the temperature, especially Suho. 

Truthfully, I am getting to know each of the members more and more. Some of their personalities are blatantly obvious, and you can already tell what theyre like, like Chanyeol and Baekhyun. Others are less talkative, like Xiumin and Chen. Although they seem nice, the tension still hasn't really been broken between us. I talked to Luhan, too. He seemed unusually interested in the palaces' terrace as we were waiting for the hot chocolate to be prepared. I talked to him about what's it like having 'super powers', which he replied with an "I don't know, you get used to it' type of answer. I asked him about Yerin as well. He assumes she's nice. I suppose you can tell he likes her, he wasn't having direct eye contact with me when I asked. 

And Kris. I found him in the library, surprisingly. He says he's been coming there often as well. Suddenly we began talking about super natural powers, and then he said that he'll give me a feel of what it was like. I was surprised and confused. But he was serious. Kris had actually gave me a feel of what it was like to fly; I literally flew with him. It didn't last long for more than ten seconds though, but god, was it thrilling. 

It was weird, at first, since we were not that close in the first place. Do you think some of the members would be trying to seduce me with their powers? I suppose that you could say it happened before, the time where I was in the garden with Chanyeol burning out half the gardens tulips, but that's another story.

I don't know how long this suitor thing will last. It's been a month and I still haven't really developed any feelings for any of them, so if it doesn't take me a month to even begin to like one of them, imagine how long it would actually take for me to get married to one of them.

Therefore yes, it could take a while, or, even no time at all because I probably won't have anything felt for them even at the end of this century.'

 

You closed your journal and placed it back in its drawer, locking it as well before giving out a sigh.

"Annyeong, princess MiNa-ah" Baekhyun suddenly appeared in front of you as you opened your bedroom door and you looked at him with a confused face and eyes wide open. His arm was stretched out and his hand touched the frame of your door as he struck a somewhat seductive pose, though it was far from wooing you. His head was faced down, but he slowly lifted his head up so that his eyes would meet yours. His eyebrows moved up and down in a flirty way.

 

"What. Are. You. Doing." you said with stops in between. 

 

Baekhyun just smirked, still in his pose. "Just saying hi, haven't spoken to you in a while." 

 

"And so informally as well?" you replied. 

 

"Well, it has been a while since we've known each other. You're my dongsaeng, right? It's why I'm addressing you like that. And I'm your oppa." 

 

Oppa. The words repeated in your head. Baekhyun oppa. Omg. You cringed and made a gagging action at the sound of it. "Eh? Well, you seem to be forgetting that im a royal here, and that just rules out any dongsaeng/oppa relationships." you stated, crossing your arms and stamping your foot. Baekhyun stopped leaning and stood up right.

 

You've never had an 'oppa' before, let alone someone to call 'oppa'. Frankly enough, even though it's how younger girls should address older boys, you find that word annoying, and the way that girls use it with aegyo, flashing peace signs and making cute scrunchy faces, yeah, you weren't one of those girls. 'Oppa'. No way you were going to call him that.

 

"Would you excuse me, Baekhyun" you said, emphasizing on his name. Baekhyun had given up and stepped aside to let you pass.

 

You put on a confused face. Yesterday, he seemed so down. Well, down according to Chanyeol that is, or 'upset'. But he looks fine now, in fact he looks more than fine, he's much more dorkier than he usually is. You shook your head. You couldn't help but wonder if this Byun Baekhyun was the Byun Baekhyun that was left as an outcast and loner from the rest of the group yesterday and missed out on some amazing hot chocolate. So maybe in fact he wasn't upset or mad; maybe he just wanted some alone time to himself or something. But then again, why would Chanyeol tell you something unneccesarry like that?

 

"Princess," Baekhyun blurted out. You turned around in response. "I heard that Kris hyung gave you a little sample of his powers the other day"

 

You blushed at his words. How on earth did he manage to know? "W-what?" you pretended not to hear him properly

 

"Oh, don't act like you don't know, princess. It was kind of obvious. I bet the rest of the EXO members know about it, too. You can't miss Kris hyungs flying. As soon as he takes off, you hear a gigantic roar of a sound that blasts everywhere. It made me run up to the window to see what was going on since it was so loud, I saw the both of you for a moment before you were both back down on your feet in an instant." he said, making it clear how he knew.

 

He was right. As soon as you and Kris took off, you felt a blast of sound explode in your ears. It was so fast that by the time you were up in the air, it became almost unnoticable.

 

You can't help but wonder why he mentioned it so suddenly, but then again, knowing him, he probably has something else in mind that is supposedly 'better' than that that he wanted to show you, since he can act pretty cocky at times."Okay," you said sounding unsure "why are you bringing this up?"

 

He smiled. Bingo. "Do you want me to give you a sample of my powers?" he asked.

 

You knew something like this was going to happen. You shook your head. "Um, nah" you said

 

Baekhyun pouted his lips. "Aw? Please, princess. Mine are way more powerful and impressive than Kris hyungs." he fluttered his eye lashes and you laughed slightly.

 

"Yeah? And then what?"

 

He swivelled his body around a bit as he was thinking what to say back. "And then...you can...and then you can give me a kiss afterwards as a thank you." he grinned at you.

 

Your eyes opened wide in response. K-kiss? "Nooo..." you said

 

"What about on the cheek?"

 

"Noooo.."

 

"Please, on the cheek?"

 

"Nope"

 

"It's just a kiss-"

 

"N-"

 

"ON THE CHEEK."

 

You laughed at his stubborness. At this point of the conversation, you were just playing around and teasing him, but he seemed to take it seriously as he kept on pouting his lips at you and putting on a sad face.

 

"Huhuh, told you she wouldn't". You turned around at the sound of the voice which frightened you a little only to find that it was Chanyeol who was speaking, he seemed to have come out from hiding in a room, surprisingly, a few of the other members followed him after; Suho, Kai and Kyungsoo. They all had smirks on their faces.

 

"Don't worry, princess, it was all a dare" Kyungsoo said.

 

"Yeah," Kai spoke "we were playing a game of truth or dare and got Baekhyun hyung to do this"

 

"Boy, you were owned by the princess, man. Haha." laughed Chanyeol.

 

You rolled your eyes at the boys and their immaturity. So this whole 'seduction' plan thing was a dare. You shrugged it off, you weren't intending for it to be real anyways. You narrowed your eyes at Chanyeol who had his arm around Baekhyun, still smiling, and Baekhyun stood there firm with crossed arms. You smiled slightly. 'They make a neat pair' you thought to yourself.

 

"Hey, Chanyeol" you said

 

"Yeah?" he looked at you, the grin not wiping off

 

"I have a nickname for you"

 

"Lay it on me" he said as if he didn't care much

 

"Well, since you and Bacon there are so close, you can be...Eggyeol."

 

He put on a confused face. "Eggyeol?"

 

"Yeah," you replied giggling "Eggyeol. "You know, deprived from the word 'Egg yolk'. You and Baekhyun. Bacon and Eggyeol. The perfect pair." 

 

All of a sudden, a burst of laughter came from the other boys. "It was always Bacon, now-now it's Eggyeol too!" Suho laughed. The boys seemed to take an appreciation towards your sense of humor.

 

"Aish, mwoya?" Baekhyun rolled his eyes, but he couldn't hide the fact that he still thought it was funny.

 

The boys started to walk off in to their own rooms, obviously some of them seemed a bit too excited to tell the other members what had happened. Chanyeol too was about to go, but you had grabbed him by his jumper and pulled him back since you wanted some answers from him. He tilted his head at you in confusion.

 

"What was that all about yesterday when you said that Baekhyun was upset about something?" you whisphered to him

 

He blinked at you. By looking at his eyes, you could tell that there was an obvious answer, but maybe he just wasn't willing to tell you. "Nothing" he mumbled, escaping from your grasp. You were about to open your mouth to say something else, but he had already walked away from you. You shrugged, maybe you'll bring this up some other time.
