Being a son of the richest man in high school is not totally a great thing. You become the centre of attraction in which revolves around good thing or even bad thing. Though, the attention that you got is quite splendid but no one around to hear what has been stuffing up on that heart.
Exactly what Baekhyun have been feeling this lately.
A son of one of the greatest businessman in Seoul who owned a Music Industry that currently is promoting the best group worldwide, Byun Baekhyun. Every day in school, people has been treating him like a king or maybe a prince, so that the others could get the privilege of their favourite artist which is under his dad’ company. He is sick getting around the ass-kisser, because all he needs is just someone who he can share his life; a friend to plays around and stuff. But things had always gone good to him as he is always nominated as the best student of the year. That basically makes sense why people looks up to him.

School started today.
He woke up lazily, was trying to fight the urge to wake up. He sighed lowly as he finally got up of the bed. He turned himself to the shower as the door knocked and followed by a morning greeting by the maid. He turned off the shower and proceeded himself with his casual clothes. Another day, he thought.

School hasn’t changed much even after the semester break. Except for the fact that new freshmen will be at the school and perhaps new friends, he snorted on the thought. He walked off his car as it pulled off to the side, thanking his driver who had been in service for so many years yet still can hold onto his bad attitude, (well not really, he’s kind just yet).
As always, early in the morning is kinda bad for someone who just lack of sleep the night before and suddenly people around just being extra friendly and stuffs. All he could do is smile and nods. He always hated that he is the son of Byun’s Company, an entertainment company who owned half of the South Korea’s share. Not that he doesn’t like the wealth, but he just want to be treated as normal guy. As if he is the artist itself, when he is only the son of the CEO and not to mention how sasaeng fans would want him to pass gifts/stuffs to their favourite artists.
He walked passed a group of freshmen who were waiting to be called by the admin board for schedule and their registration. Fresh faces, innocent smiles, like the first time he got admitted to the school before. As he walked, someone tapped his shoulder and he turned around. A tall guy with a short side-combed hair is standing in front of him. He shot a look, “yeah?” waiting for the tall guy to answer.
“Hello. I am Chanyeol, the new student. Perhaps you can show me where this place is?” he replied as he showed and pointed something on his paper. Maths Block 3.1 , the same class as him.
“Are you a freshman? Or transferred student?” Baekhyun asked as he scanned through the latter’s schedule.
“Transferred student, and so your name is Baekhyun?” the tall guy replied, and Baekhyun nods as he figures out the transferred student knew it by his tag. “I see, nice to meet you Baekhyun” he grinned as he offered a hand shake. Baekhyun hesitantly accept the handshake.
“Anyways, the class is the same as mine. We have 4 classes together which are Maths, Physical Education, Biology and Physics” he said as he handed back the paper to Chanyeol. “Come then, let me show you where our first class is?” he smiled assuringly and Chanyeol just smiled as he followed Baekhyun’s lead.

“Good Morning, class” greet Mr Wu. The most handsome (he can assure that the Lecturer is famous among the girls or perhaps the boys as well)
“Morning Mr. Wu” said the class in unison. The very First subject in the very first day of school is Maths. Baekhyun sighed. (Everyone did to be honest)
“Okay, please. Stop with the sighs that I almost can hear from here. Today, we will be having a new transferred student.” He signalled to the door, and Chanyeol walked in. He is great, tall, good-looking and could be happy go lucky, by the way he is smiling. Baekhyun thought. “Class, this is Chanyeol. He will be with us from now on, so please treat him nicely” said Mr. Wu. “Baekhyun, is the seat next to you occupied?” asked him. Baekhyun startled, and he shook head. “Fantastic, Chanyeol. Make you a way to the empty seat” Mr. Wu patted Chanyeol’s shoulder as he showed the way to Baekhyun’s seat.
“Hi again new transferred student” said Baekhyun as he pulled the seat next to him. Chanyeol settled down his stuffs and sat.
“Thanks new friend” Chanyeol smiled and started looking infront. They talked when the teacher is not watching and silent again. It keeps on like that until the end of the class. “Baekhyun, perhaps do you want to tour me around the school later?” Chanyeol broke the silent. Baekhyun blinked, slowly nodded.
“Sure, I will meet you during lunch time after my Language class. Just meet me where you found me earlier” he said as he packed his things for his next class.
“Alright, see you later” Chanyeol bid his goodbye as they walked out the class.

“Lastly, this is our Biology lab. You will be having your class here tomorrow” Baekhyun showed the big and full-equipped biology lab. Chanyeol slightly dropped his jaws open. Baekhyun chuckled. “This is the best part of the school, to be honest” he said as he patted Chanyeol as a signal to keep going.
“Thanks for bringing me doing the tour. I hope your friends won’t mind I am borrowing you for a while” Chanyeol smiled. Friends. Baekhyun was frozen as the word came out. “Are you okay, Baekhyun?” asked Chanyeol as he waved his hand in front of Baekhyun’s face. The latter startled.
“Yeah, is there anywhere else you want me to bring you?” Baekhyun quickly asked to avoid another questions. Chanyeol shrugged. Suddenly, he heard a sound. He looked at Chanyeol who is now turning red.
“Sorry, I guess I am too hungry” Chanyeol replied as he scratched the back of his neck. Baekhyun let out a little laugh. Baekhyun then offered him to the cafeteria to have lunch.

Time has passed, it has been more than a month since Chanyeol’s first day to his new school. Day after day, he gotten closer with Baekhyun. They would spend their times together, having lunch and sometimes even doing homework together. Baekhyun grew closer and comfortable with Chanyeol. One day when Baekhyun was waiting for Chanyeol after school, Kyungsoo came next to him. Kyungsoo is one of his closest friends. Baekhyun smiled upon Kyungsoo sat next to him.
“Hi Baek” Kyungsoo greeted him.
“Hi, soo. What are you doing here?”Baekhyun puzzled for a moment. Kyungsoo shook his head.
“Nothing, just want to sit down here. Are you waiting for Chanyeol, perhaps?” Kyungsoo now take turn to look at Baekhyun. Baekhyun froze. They are not thinking I am gay, right?. Baekhyun thought.
“Yeah, got homework to do after this. Whats wrong?” Baekhyun shook off the negative thought.
“Nah, you guys look great together.” Kyungsoo chuckled. Ok What! This is not happening!
“Why are you even-“before Baekhyun even continued, Chanyeol came.
“Hey guys. Sorry to keep you waiting, Baek. And, oh is Kyungsoo joining us today?” Chanyeol asked with his wide smile.
Kyungsoo shook his head “Oh no. Don’t want to be the third-wheel. Have to go now” he said as he waved and ran to join his other friends. Baekhyun doesn’t wants to turn his face to Chanyeol or he ends up embarrassed.
“Third-wheeling” Chanyeol chuckled. “Come on Baekhyun, let’s go” He noticed Baekhyun turned red so he avoided the awkwardness. Awkward.

“Can we not do this?” Baekhyun sighed in frustration. The maths assignment has been occupying their evening.
“Says the one who always scored well in Maths” Chanyeol grinned as he wrote the calculations. Silence. He looked up to see Baekhyun put his head on the desk. “Baekhyun” he called many times. “Sleeping” Chanyeol muttered.

“Baekhyun”
Baekhyun felt his body was shaken. He reluctantly opened his eyes. Chanyeol. He startled by the view. “How long have I been asleep?” He rubbed his eyes and tried to blink and faced the reality.
“All night?”said Chanyeol with his joking tone. Baekhyun stared at him with Are-You-Serious face. “I mean like yeah, you were complaining and you just fell asleep” Chanyeol explained. “And Kyungsoo called. He was looking for you and said something” he added. Kyungsoo.
“Is he saying a bad thing about me?” Baekhyun sighed. Chanyeol let out a small laugh, and shook his head.
“Not really. He was just saying you need a blanket if you fall asleep or you will sleepwalk or sleep talk”
Baekhyun Froze. His habit of sleep talking is the worst. He would talk everything he felt inside his heart and now he feared Chanyeol may listened to it.
“Did I happen to sleep talking? “ Baekhyun asked. The taller slowly nodded. “Oh My God”
“Hey. It’s not that much. Don’t fret.” Chanyeol patted the other’s shoulder. “Don’t worry” he added.
“Did I say about my feeling, oh my god? Do you mind to tell me what did I say?” Baekhyun faced Chanyeol.
He grinned and nodded. “Well, not much. You just say you like someone and you are wondering if that someone likes you. Or if that someone even noticed that feelings. You were asking what would that someone say about your feelings. And oh you did mention, if your friends could accept for decision to like this someone?” he told you clearly. Baekhyun face-palmed. “You called my name as well, that’s why I wake you up”
“What?” he startled and asked with a louder voice. Chanyeol was surprised.
“No, I mean, seriously. That’s all that you said. Is it something that I shouldn’t know somehow?” asked Chanyeol. “You know I am here and will always listen to you no matter what”
Baekhyun groaned. “Why do you want to be friend with me when you can find other people?” He asked.
Chanyeol shrugged before he sat comfort next to Baekhyun, “You are the first one that I know in school and you’re the first one to be kind to me, and I am thankful of that. If you have ever thought I am being friend because of your wealth or fame, I am sorry to disappoint you because I am not chasing for that. We are human, Baekhyun. For some reasons, we want to be appreciated and that’s what I got from being your friends. I don’t really care what the others might say about me or about us or even if you are soon going to have your partner, know that I will always be here for you”
Baekhyun listened to Chanyeol’s words. They are so deep and he felt he is going to cry soon.
“Chanyeol-“
“Baekhyun, I am afraid, I might like you more than a friend should does. I am sorry, I know I shouldn’t. I am such a failed people who like his own friend who helped since day 1. I am very sorry for my manner and feeling” Chanyeol looked at Baekhyun before he look down.
“Chanyeol- what are you talking about?” Baekhyun asked. “Do you like me?” he asked again. Chanyeol nodded. He sighed in relief.
“I seriously don’t want our friendship to ends just because of this stupid feeling and I also don’t want to ruin your feeling to that someone” said Chanyeol in his upset’s tone.
“Worry not, that someone is you” Baekhyun finally confessed. “I was worried if you are someone who dislike ‘same-gender’ or even me. I was worried, because I never felt this way. I was straight, player. And I am worried that I might lost this friendship as well” he continued.
“So the feeling is mutual. But, it is absurd to just start to something else now, don’t you think?” Chanyeol asked. He’s right, Baekhyun thought.
“I know. What would the others will say?” Baekhyun agreed.
Chanyeol patted Baekhyun’s head “Stop worrying about the others, it’s your life after all. And this is about us, that’s for sure” He further said “Let’s be like what we are now, wherever it leads us. I will be happy as long we are closed” Chanyeol smiled “Let’s like each other more” Baekhyun cracked a smile. Upon seeing it, Chanyeol added “You know what Baek, I thought you dislike Homo”
Baekhyun chuckled “I don’t dislike homo, society does”
