“I want this one.” Baekhyun sing song to Chanyeol and Chanyeol just smile in Baekhyun’s silliness. Baekhyun is showing an oversized shoe and asking him to buy it.

“It’s almost three inches larger than your feet Baekhyun.” Chanyeol is doing his best not to burst in laughter.

“But I want it! It’s the same as yours from color, style even the size.” Baekhyun’s smile is priceless. For Chanyeol, it is the only thing he can treasure for the rest of his life. He can live w/ just Baekhyun and his smile if he’s just given a chance.

“Ok! Since you’re the boss then you’re choice.” Chanyeol agrees in Baekhyun’s silliness and he just look at the excited Baekhyun while accepting the paper bag.

“When I reach my age of independency I’m going to be rich and Im going to have happy married life.” Baekhyun said while his chin is in his left palm while the other one is tapping the table.

“I wish it’s me who you’ll marry!” Chanyeol taught to his self w/o realizing that he said it out loud.

“You want to marry me?” Baekhyun ask after a harsh gasp and Chanyeol is shock as Baekhyun and cover his mouth while asking himself louder than he intended to be.

“Did I say it out loud?” Chanyeol is in panic state the tip of his ears start to turn red as his cheeks.

“You said it… And there’s no turning back now. ” Baekhyun beam at Chanyeol w/ a blushing cheeks and Chanyeol just blush harder feeling his cheeks as if he’s suffering in fever.

“I promise myself that I’ll wait for you till you reach your right age to get married and when that time come I’m going to marry you.” Chanyeol just bow his head w/o looking at Baekhyun. His not waiting for Baekhyun’s answer he knows the latter just look at him as his big brother so he got shock in Baekhyun’s words.

“Don’t break your promise; I’ll be waiting too.” Chanyeol slowly cross his gaze from bowing to Baekhyun. He can’t believe what he had heard. He didn’t notice his mouth is open wide until Baekhyun slowly lift his chin to close his mouth.

“If you’re proposing to marry me then.. It’s a yes.” Baekhyun is now holding Chanyeol’s hand on top of the table. After second of silence they share a bright smile w/ blushes in their cheeks. After eating, Jongdae and his friend decided to drive Baekhyun home.

And at night Jongdae grant his promise after bringing Baekhyun home they gone to bar.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

It’s been a while when Baekhyun is the treasure of Jongdae’s friend and it’s time for them to go. Chanyeol is going to handle their family business and his dad told him that he’s not going back in Korea anymore; he’s going to live in America base on his father’s decision. In Tao’s side he’s going to finish study in China for it’s his native land. Xiumin is about to live in China w/ his family and his parent’s want it for good.

"I'm going to miss you guys!" Baekhyun keep on crying like a child, they’re in the airport with his brother they were here to bid good bye to the three men that scrape and shape halves of their lives.

"We’re going to miss you too maknae" Tao is starting to rub his eyes to stop his tears from falling.

"Hey! Behave and always listen to your hyung OK!" Xiumin let his tears flow and try to control his sob while petting Baekhyun's head. Baekhyun just nod still crying but it's not much unlike just a while ago.

"Hey!" Chanyeol is in serious tone even his expression is too serious. He anchors his left arm in Baekhyun's shoulder and drags him feet away from his hyungs.

"Yollie I thought you’re going to marry me someday then why you’re going to leave me now? Huh? You don't really mean it don’t you?" Chanyeol guiltily bow his head for even him thinks that his father is not going to allow him to go back in this country and it's hard for him to leave and hearing this from Baekhyun makes his heart shutter in to a million pieces.

"I'm sorry" It's the only word he can give to Baekhyun.

"I hate you i hate you i hate you!" Baekhyun keep on repeating this word while pounding his fist in Chanyeol’s chest. His brother and the other two just look at the two of them and their guilt start seeping to their hearts while looking at Baekhyun's betrayed face.

"Chanyeol were just going to wait for you inside." Xiumin shouts and walk away after w/ Tao in a fast pace trying to avoid their beloved Baekhyun.

"Hey I’m going to wait outside to call a cub for us OK?" Jongdae didn't wait for Baekhyun's answer Baekhyun is the most important person for him, much important than his parents and it really hurts to see him in this state.

"I-"Before Baekhyun utter a word his lip is sealed w/ Chanyeol’s lips. The kiss is soft in the first second that turns to a heated make out, for Baekhyun's side he don't know what is he going to do so he just copy Chanyeol. When they separate they notice they catch most of the people's eyes. Cheeks turn to deep red from neck to tip of their ears.

"Baek forget about what I've promise you cause im not sincere when i told you that. I'm not coming back any more. I'm going to live my life there and-"Chanyeol's word was cut w/ a slap from baekhyun.

"I hate you!" Baekhyun feels like something is wrong but he don't know what is it. Chanyeol wants to end this scenario w/ Baekhyun deciding to forget him. And all he can think is to hurt Baekhyun to the point that he’s unforgivable.

"I don't have an obligation to explain my self Baek, I’m not even your boyfriend! “Chanyeol regret his words after he saw Baekhyun's face. Lips slightly open, tears keep on falling, blank expression, panting.

"Baek im so-"Baekhyun didn't allow him to finish and just run till Chanyeol can't see him but something catch Chanyeol’s eyes. He walks slowly till he's in the front of a something lying on the floor. He pick it up before he hear a call about the last minute boarding of the plane a cue for him to move fast.
