Baekhyun bit his lips as he walked around, phone still placed next to his ear, waiting for Chanyeol to reply back. He somehow just knew that Chanyeol couldn't say no to him. 

"Baek, can you get someone else to take you home?"

"Chanyeol, come on." Baekhyun heard shuffling on the other side. His heart made a little victory dance and he smiled. He knew Chanyeol wasn't going to say no.

"Baek, you see me every day."

Baekhyun sighed, checking the time on his phone before talking. "Are you coming to pick me up or what?"

Chanyeol was quiet on the other side and that caused Baekhyun to fiddle with his tie for a moment. Before Baekhyun could say anything else, Chanyeol said, "What is going on Baek?"

"Look, if you aren't coming then I will be mad because you always pick me up. And with the fact that you didn't come to the winter formal upsets me, but you can't say no to me. Just come."

After a minute, Chanyeol said, "fine." He hung up.

Baekhyun walked back into the gym, looking for Taeyeon. He spotted her talking with Luna and went up to her, his hands attaching to her waist. "Hey Tae."

Taeyeon turned to look at him and smiled. "You're back."

He laced their fingers together and Luna smiled at them before taking her leave. He led them onto the dance floor. "I'm sorry if you think tonight was bad. I truly think this was my fault."

Taeyeon chuckled, arms wrapping around Baekhyun's shoulders. "Don't think that. It wasn't bad. Anyways, what happened?"

"Something happened at home. I'll tell you about it when it all gets settled. I have to leave real soon." Her smile faded and Baekhyun felt really bad about leaving her here.

"It's okay Baek. You just gotta do what you gotta do. I understand."

"Yeah. But I will make it up to you. Maybe a date?"

"I would like that." She smiled and pulled him closer. "Do I get a kiss before you leave?"

Baekhyun smiled at her before kissing her gently on the lips.

"So Tae," he said, swiping some of her bangs back, which was covering her left eye, "thank you for being such a great person and I'm sorry for being just a terrible boyfriend. You know I really like you and it hasn't been that amazing for me lately, but thank you for always letting me know that you will still be there. Even when I'm not at my best, when I ignore you, or even when I'm not with you, for not even recognizing my feelings for you. I'm sorry about that."

"Baek, it's fine. Oh, and when were you ever my boyfriend?" she joked, smiling. 

Baekhyun's heart did a little flip and he slowly smiled at her too. He couldn't stop thinking of when a smile was all he wanted to see. He knew that it wasn't just Chanyeol's smile that made him all fluttery; he wanted to see more of Taeyeon's smile even if he knew that he couldn't ever fall in love with her.

"I just thought that maybe it was time to come to that term? I mean what else could I be?"

Taeyeon shook her head, her eyes fixated on his tie. "Thanks for tonight. It was really fun with you."

Baekhyun kissed her forehead and they danced or awhile until his phone rang. He reached for it, seeing the caller ID. "I have to go now. Plan our date okay?"

She nodded and bidded him goodbye before he left. 

Baekhyun half-walked and half ran to the front, seeing that Chanyeol was already parked in front, playing with his phone. He took a deep breath, getting onto the front seat and Chanyeol acknowledged him, putting his phone away. 

"How was the dance?" he asked, starting the car up. 

"It was fine."

"So Baek, you wanted to see me for what?" So Chanyeol caught that little hint?

Baekhyun swallowed and thought over what he was going to do. He decided he's just going to wing it because he shouldn't be afraid of what was gonna happen. He knew what Chanyeol was like so he has to go through with it. He deliberately reached for Chanyeol's hand and looked him in the eye. 

"Chanyeol, look into my eye and tell me that you will be honest with me, under any circumstances." He could feel Chanyeol trying to loosen up his fingers, but he won't let that happen and held on tighter. 

"You want me to be honest?"

"Yeah," he breathed. 

"Baek, tell me what is going on. Are you okay?" Chanyeol let go of his hand and brought his face closer. "What do you want me to be honest about?"

"If you be honest then I will be honest with you."

Chanyeol sighed, taking his hand away. "Baek, you know me. I can't promise anything."

Baakhyun stubbornly sighed. "Chanyeol, just for tonight. Just be honest with me tonight."

Chanyeol started up his car, driving out of the school. "If you really want me to, then fine." 

It only took them about 8 minutes to get to Baekhyun's house and when they got there, the cops were still there and he turned to Chanyeol, knowing that Chanyeol was wondering what the heck was happening. 

"Baek, what is happening?"

"Wouldn't you like to know? They tracked us down and my parents could go to jail if they find something that isn't ours." Chanyeol's face became stern and deep inside, he knew what was happening. 

"Baekhyun, what are you talking about?" Chanyeol asked, hands on his shoulder and Baekhyun couldn't tell if he was acting or not. Baekhyun took off his seatbelt and signaled Chanyeol to do the same. Once they were out, Baekhyun pulled him closer to him. 

"I'm talking about the tracking chip you put in my laptop. Chanyeol, I want to know the truth about whether you did this or not."

Chanyeol turned slightly pale and shook his head. "This is none of my business, Baek. You don't have any proof if I did this or not."

"I'm asking you to be honest with me. Even if we do find out that you did this to my family and you don't admit, we are over. Understand? Making an excuse won't work on me. You can't just lie to face and say that you didn't do it."

Chanyeol sighed. "There won't be any evidence, Baek. Even if you truly think that I partaken in this little scheme, then you don't even know what is after you. You don't know anything Baek, you won't believe me even if I say so." He let go of Baekhyun and walked up to the porch, seeing that Baekhyun's parents were already standing there with a cop. Baekhyun's mom came up to him and slapped right across the face. 

"You son of a and your ing father did this. I will never let you touch Baek or come near us again!"

"MOM!" Baekhyun yelled, walking up the porch. "You-"

"Chanyeol, you come here and tell us the truth." Baekhyun's father butted in. "I already called your father but he denied that he did anything. You need to tell us what it is you're trying to do."

Instead of replying, Chanyeol marched into the house and ran upstairs into Baekhyun's room. The bomb. He needed to stop the bomb. There was just no way he would let the bomb destroy everything. He grabbed Baekhyun's laptop and opened up the chip, taking it out and examing it. 

"Chanyeol, what are you doing?" Baekhyun's voice was close behind him. 

"You need to get out. Take your parents out too." Chanyeol wandered around the boy's room, looking into closets and drawers. He took everything out of the boy's closet, looking for the bomb. 

Baekhyun grabbed his arm. "What are you doing?!"

Chanyeol pulled away. "I'm telling you to get out!"

"Why? What do we even have? What is it that the cops want?"

They were silent for awhile, just looking into each other's eyes. Chanyeol could hear a slight beeping sound around the area near Baekhyun's bed. He walked to it and looked under the bed and there it was, the small bomb. His dad is so going to get busted. He pulled it out and heard Baekhyun grasped. 

"A bomb?" Baekhyun's voice was a bit shaky as he watched Chanyeol maneuver the bomb.

Chanyeol glanced up, nodding. He looked down at the few minutes spearing. 5 minutes. He panicked and jumped up, searching for a pair of scissors on Baekhyun's desk. He found one in Baekhyun drawer underneath his laptop. He grabbed it and sat down on the floor, fingertips touching the blue, yellow and white wires. He felt Baekhyun pushing his hands away.

"Leave it, Chanyeol. Let this all burn down and let's go!"

"Baekhyun, I know how to do this."

"It's a bomb Chanyeol! How are you going to stop it?!" Baekhyun screamed, exasperated.

"It's a wired bomb, if we cut one of them-"

By now, all the cops were by the door and screaming them to get out when they spotted the bomb. They only had 3 minutes left to run out of the house, but Chanyeol chose to stay back. Baekhyun pulled him away but Chanyeol wouldn't budge. He quickly snatched up his laptop and rushed outside. He glanced back to see Chanyeol fighting back with a cop before leaving. He saw his parents outside, huddled together near their car, and he could see his mother in tears. He looked back and hoped to see Chanyeol come out of the door, his heart beating so fast because he didn't want Chanyeol to die in the house even if he was the one that helped with the plan. He ran to his parents and his father wrapped an arm around him. They knew that their house was going to be in shreds, but Baekhyun had all their memories on his laptop.

A dreadful 2 minutes later, cops ran out of the house, yet there were no explosion and Baekhyun knew that something must have happened. He felt his father's arm tighten around him. 

After a minute, there was still nothing happening. Baekhyun loosened his father's grip when he saw that their house seemed to be fine. 

"Chanyeol stopped it, Dad."

"How did he do it?" 

Baekhyun watched Chanyeol come out with a cop and they seemed to be talking. He ran up to them and heard the cop asking him questions about the bomb. Before he knew it, Chanyeol smiled at him. 

"My dad's going to jail." 

A few days later, Baekhyun accepted the invitation to go to Donghae's wedding as Chanyeol's date without his parents knowing. A lot of things have seemed to happen ever since that day Chanyeol saved his house from falling to shreds. His mother has seemed to be more aware of Chanyeol, apologizing for slapping him, but Baekhyun was sure she held a grudge against him. He had asked Chanyeol how he knew which one to cut and his witty response was that he watched a lot of movies. His father's company got shut down when the cops and detective barged in the building to arrested him and discovered that they were making illegal stuff. The news spread online real quick and the company got shut down, losing so many profits. Chanyeol said that he told his dad that it was a bad idea, not knowing that he would be the one to turn in his own father. Baekhyun have seemed to understand a bit, yet there was something left unsolved.

Chanyeol and him arrived to the wedding real early and gotten their pictures taken. Jongin also attended the wedding an hour later, wearing a fit black suit that made his lean body seem taller than he already was. 

"Hey," Chanyeol greeted him and Jongin nodded at him. 

"Hey yourself," Jongin smiled at Baekhyun before looking at Chanyeol. "I heard what happened."

Chanyeol slightly smiled at him and nodded. He turned to Baekhyun who was sitting beside him. "Jongin and I are gonna take a walk okay?" 

Baekhyun nodded, doing a hand motion for them to go away. Chanyeol and Jongin walked outside and found a place where they could talk. 

"So like how did this all happen?" Jongin asked, leaning on the rail. 

"He wanted to bomb the Byun's house, but in the end, it didn't work so well. He knew he was going to get busted in the end but he just went for it. He needed some time to think anyways."

"That's a good thing. How are you and Baek?"

Chanyeol sighed. putting his hands on the rail. After awhile he said, "I'm not...sure. He seemed a little bit more comfortable around me after all this. I guess he just liked the fact that it wasn't me who did it you know. And I also saved their ."

They were both in silence for a minute, just being in each other's patience. 

"I miss you man. Like how are you?" Chanyeol asked, looking at the boy. 

"I don't know. You know when you feel like everything is disappearing from you and you feel a l
