“Hyung!”
Minseok turns around to find the source of the tiny voice. It sounds familiar and he knows to whom does that voice belongs to.
He has been hearing it like almost all the time since last week ago, after the incident of Kyungsoo blacked out in the bathroom.
Nobody knows what exactly happened that night (Jongdae, Sehun and Tao refused to say anything).
However, the next morning everyone in the dorm was woken up by Kyungsoo’s voice shouting ‘you sick bastard! Open up and tell me what the hell did you did to me last night!’ in front of Baekhyun’s shared room with Chanyeol, crossing his arms while having an oversized white t-shirt on.
Kyungsoo told Minseok what happened and Minseok seriously couldn’t stand his laughter when Kyungsoo told him that he fainted in the bathtub.
(“How can you faint in the bath tub? That’s so funny.”
“Baekhyun was naked! I never seen anyone else naked in my entire life!”
“You’re too cute to be true.”
Minseok just pats Kyungsoo’s head as he pouts.)
So, Kyungsoo has been avoiding Baekhyun for the whole week.
“Tell Baekhyun I’m not here,” Kyungsoo said as he runs into a room behind and shut the door.
Minseok is not sure if he should keep up with this or not.
Perhaps, maybe be should just end this now.
He has been lying to Baekhyun for the whole week saying ‘Kyungsoo’s not here’ or ‘he’s outside‘ or ‘he is with Popo’ (Popo is the name Kyungsoo gave to his Pororo plushie which Baekhyun usually call it PooPoo instead) and other similar lies.
For the sake of his peace, “It is now or never,” Minseok nods his head and clenched his fists.
“Minseok-hyung, did you see Kyungsoo around?” Baekhyun stops in front of Minseok while bending down, hands on his knees gasping for air.
“Oh, Kyungsoo? I didn’t.”
At the same time, Minseok points his finger to the door where Kyungsoo is hiding before he leave Baekhyun.
“Don’t scare him too much,” he whispers as he pats Baekhyun on the shoulder. Baekhyun just gave him a confused look.
—
Kyungsoo is pressing his right ear onto the door and sighs in relieve when he hears silence from outside.
He’s pretty sure that Baekhyun already left.
“Thanks God.”
He has been avoiding Baekhyun for like maybe week. It’s not that he hates Baekhyun. He just cannot.
He hates the fact that Baekhyun acts like nothing happened last week where they actually were in the bathroom-in the bathtub, to be exact-together, and naked.
And he still wonder how the hell did he had his t-shirts and boxers on on the next morning.
Did Baekhyun put them on for him?
Kyungsoo swear he smashes his head onto the wall every time he thought about it.
The event is still vivid in his mind, though. Kyungsoo can’t help but to blush and deal with the butterflies in his stomach whenever he sees Baekhyun.
He tries hard not to imagine Baekhyun’s chubby packs and milky thighs whenever he looks at him. But he just can’t help it.
Kyungsoo feels pity for himself for having these sexy thoughts and imagination in the storeroom.
He just feels like it is wrong. It is wrong to blush because of Baekhyun. Baekhyun is ugly. He hates him a lot. Yeah, something must be wrong, he convinced himself.
He believes that if he avoid Baekhyun for a little longer, they will eventually turn back to normal. Kyungsoo knocks his head twice onto the wooden door while murmuring ‘pabo..pabo..‘ before he turned the doorknob and pulled the door open.
“Boo.”
Kyungsoo eyes widens in shock, as if it is going to fall out of its socket.
“Wh-wha-what are you doing here?” he asks Baekhyun. His hands starts to tremble and he feels heat flowing up his face again.
Baekhyun stood in front of him, smirking. Kyungsoo tries to escape, but Baekhyun keeps on blocking his way. Baekhyun puts his hand on Kyungsoo’s shoulder, but Kyungsoo then pushes it away.
“Say,”
Baekhyun takes a step forward, Kyungsoo takes a step backwards.
“Why are you avoiding me?” Baekhyun said in a very low voice.
Kyungsoo tries to avoid eye contact, but he just don’t have nothing else to look at. The faces are just few inches away and it is close enough to make Baekhyun’s breath brush against Kyungsoo’s flushing cheeks.
“I… I didn’t avoid-“
Kyungsoo’s back touches the wall.
Crap.
Baekhyun puts his hands on the wall, trapping Kyungsoo in between. His eyes trembles as he gaze into the elder’s blank eyes. He tries to read them, but something just distracts him.
The room is dimly-lit by only one small bulb, which illuminates weak light to make their faces visible.
Kyungsoo barely sees Baekhyun’s face, but he could see the shape of his cheeks and his eyes shines due to the reflection of the weak light.
It is silent, except the sound of their breathing fills the stagnant atmosphere.
This is the first time he confronts Baekhyun after avoiding him for the whole week. Days ago were only filled with Baekhyun trying to get Kyungsoo’s attention but finally ended up getting ignored.
Perhaps, maybe because Kyungsoo is being too obvious that Baekhyun starts to wonder.
“Baekhyun,” he paused, “Baekhyun.”
There is a brief silence for a while.
“Ugh, what are you trying to do?” Kyungsoo pushes Baekhyun with his two hands, though it barely make Baekhyun move.
Baekhyun was taken aback with Kyungsoo’s action, causing him to sigh and take a step back before crossing his arms.
“You’re being weird lately, you know.” Baekhyun pursed his lips together, twisting it to one side.
“You didn’t respond to my pranks and you kept on running away from me. You didn’t even punch me for the whole week.” Baekhyun rubs the back of his neck as he adverts his gaze from the empty wall to Kyungsoo.
“I miss being punched by you.”
…What’s going on here– Kyungsoo stares Baekhyun in confusion.
To Kyungsoo, Baekhyun is that kind of person who never express himself like directly, because he usually express himself indirectly through jokes and teasing. He only had real life talks with Chanyeol– his roommate for life.
“Did I bother you?”
Kyungsoo nods a bit, then he shakes his head.
Yes you always bothered me but no, its not a bad thing so I don’t mind– he thought.
He don’t know why but the words just won’t come out from his mouth. He freezes on the spot, while he tries to find a spot to lay his gaze. His eyes trembles nervously and it made Baekhyun to chuckle a bit.
“You’re cute.” Baekhyun said teasingly.
Kyungsoo’s eyes widen again. He tries to make sure that he did not mishear that.
He stared Baekhyun’s plump lips as he mouthed ‘what’ but no sound comes out.
“You’re cute when you’re mad. Even cuter when you’re shy.” Baekhyun smiles endearingly as he stares adoringly to Kyungsoo. Baekhyun has never been like this,
Kyungsoo swears to God that something is wrong with Baekhyun lately. Never been on his list he imagined being called cute by the one that he swore to hate for his entire life.
“I’ve never seen you this red ever since the during we were in the bathtub,” Baekhyun chuckles as he patted Kyungsoo’s cheeks.
Kyungsoo puts his hand on his cheeks before he realized the heat that fills his entire head.
The butterflies swarm in his stomach and his breathing gets faster by few rates.
He is red, burning red. The incident starts to reappear in his mind and Kyungsoo can’t help but to run away pushing Baekhyun aside and fled from the scene.
Baekhyun get on his feet as he wipe off the dust at the back of his trousers. A rather confused look displayed on his face.
He sighs before he decided to just leave Kyungsoo alone for the rest of that day.
