Masterlist


Locking the front door behind him, Kyungsoo gazed around his apartment with a blank stare on his face. Although the breakfast earlier in the day had been rather nice in his mind, kind of enjoyable he would dare admit, things just never seemed to remain calm in his life. Just as he had gotten mildly accustom to being the carrier for Jongin, a new challenge had been thrown into his life. He was shocked, confused, and felt light headed just thinking about it. Jongin and he were going to be parents within the next year, it was happening already. Doctor Kwon had given the approval for Kyungsoo to start the invitro fertilisation which meant that Kyungsoo was going to be expecting within a very short amount of time. In the course of a few months he could be pregnant. He was going to be a parent, and there would be a child growing within his own body. Just that thought was nerve racking. It was for the sake of the population, his duty as a citizen and a human being, but Kyungsoo couldn't be giddy or excited right now. He was nervous, worried, and afraid. What would happen during the procedure? Would his body accept the embryo without any problems? There was always that slight fear that something would go wrong and cause a miscarriage. There was just too many things that affected it, such as would his relationship with Jongin change dramatically now that they were on the way to becoming parents? It was just too much for his mind to deal with as he slumped onto his couch and pulled a blanket tight around his body.

With the blanket tightly under his chin Kyungsoo looked around his apartment with questions going through his mind. Now that he was here and looking around his bare apartment, there was one thing that was bothering him. Whenever they did have this child, since there was no way around it, where would the child stay? Kyungsoo didn't know the answer to that question as he looked around, trying to think of a reasonable response. Would he have to find a place inside of his apartment that would appropriate for the baby or would it stay part of the time with him and the other part living alone with Jongin? The maternal instinct within him didn't really like that idea, if Kyungsoo was going to have to carry the child within his own body it should stay with him. Right? But, his place was far from as nice as Jongin's home. He wasn't wealthy, he didn't have an android, he didn't even have spare bedrooms. He just had the living room, kitchen, bathroom, and his bedroom. A small apartment, nothing more. Tossing his blanket over his head, Kyungsoo wiggled around on his couch in frustration.

This was just too much for his mind as his body found itself reacting to the stress, hormones, and worries. Throwing the blanket off his body, Kyungsoo's face went pail as he rushed into his kitchen. With only seconds to decide what to do, he leaned over the trash can as let his body threw up. Feeling a little better afterward, although tears stung his eyes and that horrible after taste was stuck with him, he tried to catch his breath and think reasonably as he grabbed the soiled trash bag and took it outside to throw into a garbage shoot. This was one of the rare times that Kyungsoo needed a day off, he couldn't go to work in this situation. Baekhyun would be asking him what happened every couple of minutes and he knew that he couldn't lie to his friend. And worse than that, he couldn't let himself be nausea all day because of this news. It was against the health codes and so he knew what he needed to do next. Wasting no time heading inside to brush his teeth and gargling some water, Kyungsoo changed into his pajamas as he collapsed onto his bed and reached over to activate his automated system.

“System activated, please state your request. Waiting for command.”

“Please send this message to the following home systems, Byun Baekhyun home system and Wu Kris work system. The message beginning, 'This is Kyungsoo, I just got back from my carrier appointment and need to take a personal day off. I will be in the next day. Thank you.' End of message. Send with an urgent notice.“

With the sound of beeping and a few flashing lights, Kyungsoo knew that it went through the complex database to the various home systems. It was surprising how something a simple as a message could be sent wherever he asked without any problems. Unlike in the past, he didn't even need to know the phone number for whoever he was wanting to speak with. He just needed to ask the system to look through the database for whatever he needed. Knowing that his boss and friend would get his message, Kyungsoo's wary shoulders relaxed as he laid back against his pillows. It was easier this way, being sick. No one would mind, since calling in sick wasn't really the worse thing to do out there. People ditched their jobs for stupider reasons and Kyungsoo knew that Kris would be fine without him for one day. With the message sent, Kyungsoo climbed underneath his thick comforter. Feeling warm and secure under the heavy sheets, the nausea seemed to slowly drift away with his consciousness.

Sleeping in wasn't something that Kyungsoo was really use to but whenever he awoke at noon by the light beeping sound of his home system, he couldn't deny that he was happy to have slept longer than normal. Rolling over to press the buttons on his bedside table a familiar voice echoed through his room.

“Hey Kyungsoo, don't worry about calling in sick. Since it seemed like you're having a bad day. No, bad night, I'm going to go ahead and treat you well tomorrow. Tao has the afternoon off as well, so we're going to have a boys day and go shopping! I know that you must be jumping out of your socks, so be ready by three. I'll be there to kidnap you! Baekhyun out.”

Listening to the message one more time, Kyungsoo stared blankly at the wall as his mind tried to understand what was happening. Baekhyun was going to force him to go on a shopping trip. Normally Kyungsoo enjoyed going shopping with Baekhyun, since his friend always found interesting things to buy and always had a unique view on the simplest things. But, it was different this time. Kyungsoo didn't want to have Baekhyun asking him questions. He just wanted to be alone and not deal with the stress of keeping what happened a secret. Knowing that he didn't have a choice in the matter it was easier to just accept that he would be busy in the night. Fixing himself breakfast, Kyungsoo kept himself busy for the remainder of the morning.

The day progressed rather quickly until it was a quarter till three and a doorbell caught Kyungsoo's attention away from the novel that he was reading. Slightly saddened by the fact that he had to put down his novel, since it was an interesting story, he turned off the data pad and set it down on the table next to him. Heading over to the front door, Kyungsoo let Baekhyun inside as his friend smiled brightly at him.

“Kyungsoo, you look better than I thought! Which is perfect since we've got a few shops to go visit. Get your stuff, we need to hurry over to meet Tao.” Baekhyun explained with an excited voice.

Staring at Baekhyun with a slacked jaw, he didn't expect that conversation. Not in the slightest. Baekhyun was acting normal, beyond normal honestly. There weren’t any strange questions about what had happened at the appointment yesterday, no questions about what was going on with him and Jongin, it was just a typical conversation without any worries and honestly that really surprised him.

“Let me just grab my wallet and I'll be right there.”

“These key chain’s are kind of cute.”

Baekhyun and Kyungsoo both turned their heads quickly towards Tao, shocked as their manly co worker was looking through a rack of fluffy animal key chains with amusement in his sharp eyes. With each key chain that he would pick up and hold against his phone, judging how it would look in comparison to his current one, the mood felt lighter with each moment because of his friends. Especially as Baekhyun looked on with a nearly disgusted look on his face, obviously judging Tao's poor judgment in an obnoxious pink teddy bear that he was looking at, Kyungsoo couldn't help but chuckle at the scene that was happening with them. Kyungsoo could remember how Kris would always have obnoxious key chains on his phone and it never clicked in his mind that Tao was the one buying them for him. He turned to look at Baekhyun who was starring back at him with a facial expression that Kyungsoo was sure Baekhyun was thinking the same thing.

“What do you think of this one?” Tao asked, turning around to show a pair of matching purple and pink octopus key chain's to them. With the excited look in his eyes, Kyungsoo tried his best to not snicker at the obviously adorable nature of Tao.

“It does look like Kris. It's in the eyes, they match his. ” Baekhyun snickered at the mismatched eyes that peered in opposite directions on the little octopus face as he nodded his head with his arms crossed.

Tao's eyes glowed with excitement at that statement, “It does, I think that I'm going to get these. It'll be a cute gift. Are either of you getting one too?”

Kyungsoo looked around at the key chains, thinking a little bit about what that suggested. Kyungsoo really wasn't someone who wanted to put a ton of key chains on his phone, since it just made it more awkward to carry around, but what about Jongin? Was there even a chance that he liked them? Having fancy key chains on a phone wasn't something that Kyungsoo could picture Jongin enjoying. He was sure that he would accept the gift, but he just wasn't sure if they really were at the level to even do that yet. They were barely friends, nothing more. Unlike with Tao and Kris. There was many stories that he's heard in the past days, but Kyungsoo was more in the lope now with his friends relationship. He had learned that Tao and Kris were dating, since they explained simply to him that since they are paired up as steriles they wanted to make the best of it and decided to just move in together and start dating right away, but Kyungsoo wasn't like that with Jongin. Deep down he wondered what it would be like, to try taking it slow together with Jongin and simply date, but he wasn't sure if Jongin would even consider it. Kyungsoo really didn't even know what Jongin thought of him, other than being his carrier. Brushing those thoughts out of his mind, Kyungsoo shook his head no simply. “No thanks.”

Unlike Kyungsoo, Baekhyun was oddly looking at a pair of cat key chains with huge eyes. One was a calico with huge eyes and a dorky smile on it's face and the other a smaller black cat with eyes that looked more narrow. Although Baekhyun didn't say anything, Kyungsoo knew that look very well. He liked them and Baekhyun was considering it. Whenever Baekhyun put them back in their place, he turned around with a huff.

“I don't need any either, it's not like I've got anyone to give it to. I'm going to go to the bathroom I'll catch up with you guys.”

Tao responded with a simple shrug of his shoulders. With that action Tao went to pay for his key chains, not really caring if he received a rather strange look from the cashier. After having his present paid for, the two of them left for the next store on their strange adventure. Baekhyun caught up to them complaining about how they had left him behind.

Stepping off of the bus, the shopping trip had been a success without a doubt. After dropping Tao off at the cafe, where Kris smiled a rare smile when he received his key chain, Baekhyun escorted Kyungsoo back to his apartment. With a cheerful smile on his face, Kyungsoo and Baekhyun talked lightly with each other on their way up the stairs to Kyungsoo's place. Getting ready to close the door and call it a night, things turned drastically weird whenever Baekhyun's hand suddenly stopped the door from closing.

“Kyungsoo, before I leave there's one little thing that I need to talk with you about.” Baekhyun explained seriously, his eyes looking around the hallway to make sure that none of his neighbors were outside. “I have a good feeling what happened that made you not come to work.”

“Baek-”

“No, I need to do this before I forget and something bad happens.”

“Baekhyun nothing happened, really. It was just a hard night-”

“Oh, I see! I know what that's like. Long. Hard. Nights.”

Kyungsoo wasn't sure what was happening since the entire shopping trip had gone by without a single problem. There had been no awkward or tense moments in the entire time, but now Baekhyun was looking at Kyungsoo straight in the eyes. It was really strange that Baekhyun was acting like this all of a sudden and something inside of Kyungsoo told him that it wasn't going to end well.

“I don't know how far you've gotten yet, but whenever two people get together they sometimes both have these urges. Just like the birds and the bees-”

Oh god no.

“It doesn't mean that you love each other or anything, I mean Chanyeol and I have sex all the time and there's nothing to it other than we both need release.”

Kyungsoo is now mortified, not even able to chock out another word. Deep down in his mind there's a great deal of shock at the fact that Chanyeol and Baekhyun were having sex, since Kyungsoo never would have thought it with the way that Baekhyun would complain about his donor, but Baekhyun continued his sex talk

“It's something very natural, there's nothing wrong with sex. If you both are in the mood then it's good, good for your body and mind. I think. I mean, who doesn't like sex? You just need to make sure that you use protection whenever you have sex and lots of lube. I know that you may not want to, since it's stick and gross at times, but it'll make it easier for both of you-”

Just stop, please.

Kyungsoo's eyes were wide, not even able to process what was happening. Was this really happening? Was Baekhyun trying to give him a sex talk, an awkward one at that? As much as Kyungsoo tried to ignore his friends words, his mind was already flashing back to that wonderful night on the couch. Although Kyungsoo was drunk that night, for some reason the memories were as clear as any other day. He could remember all of it, remembering how he lead Jongin in and was nearly begging the other to touch his skin. The mere thought of it was like electricity dancing over his skin. Baekhyun watched as Kyungsoo's eyes widened into huge saucers and a pink blush covered his cheeks.

“You've done it already! God, why didn't you tell me?”

“I haven't, I swear!”

“I- Just- I need to go sleep. Please. Just go home and do whatever it is that you and … Chanyeol do at home.”

A small laugh escapes from Baekhyun's mouth as he looked like he just learned the greatest secret in the world. Baekhyun ignored Kyungsoo's pleas as he finished up, “Now, if you ever need any condom's or lube just come to me. I'll get you some, that's what best friends are for.”

Nearly pushing Baekhyun out of his doorway, Kyungsoo closed and locked the door behind him as he leaned against the ball of the door and tried to calm down his beating heart. Within the darkness of his apartment a small flashing light seemed to dance around his room. There was some kind of message on his home system. Watching the flashing like that blinked slowly in the dark, Kyungsoo had no idea who it could have been from. If it was Baekhyun calling to finish his sex talk then Kyungsoo swore that he wouldn't talk with him for a month. Taking in a breath, he spoke slowly. “Home system activated, please play back recorded message.”

“Voice authorization approved, playing back message. “Hey Kyungsoo, I was trying to get in touch with you earlier but you didn't seem to be at home. Well, yeah... that's pretty obvious since I'm leaving a message. But, I was kind of hoping that you would want to go to the movies with me tomorrow night. I remember you saying that you were off that night and well, I really want to have a real date with you. Not pretending to be have a date when we eat breakfast, but a real one with just us. Let me know you're reply. Uh- I feel like I'm fifteen again. I'll see you later.” End of the message, do you want the message deleted or stored.”

Kyungsoo stood there in shock, all of a sudden everything that Baekhyun said earlier was pushed away to the back of his mind. Jongin wanted to go on a date, a ready date between the two of them. Although there was a part of him that was unsure and confused about how he felt for the other, but the other side was getting a faster heart beat just from those simple words. Jongin was always trying to do is best and make their relationship be good, so shouldn't he try too. Deep down, he knew that he secretly wanted to go on a date too and that confused. Thinking a few more moments, Kyungsoo tried to relax before he issued his order.

“Store the message, please send the following response. “Jongin, just tell me where and I'll meet you there. Let's try out your idea of a date.” End of message.”
