☁☁☁
Byun Baekhyun dislikes a lot of things. He is annoyed by almost everyone he meets, even his friends (Jongin likes to think that he hides his feelings under that thick wall of indifference and eyeliner), and almost nothing pleases him.
Baekhyun appreciates this about himself though. He doesn't like the thought of being a pushover, and pities those who are. In fact, he has an entire list of things he doesn't like, and he likes to keep it in the front pocket of his backpack at all times, just to remind him that I don't like this, stay away.
When Baekhyun meets a tall, lanky boy with curly hair and wide eyes, he squints at him and refuses to take the latter's outstretched hand.
"My name is Chanyeol!" the other boy sings with a voice too low, and Baekhyun catches himself before he flinches out of surprise. He glares at Chanyeol's huge eyes, unkempt hair, impractical height (Kyungsoo says he Baekhyun has an issue with people taller than him, which is why he and Jongin had a hard time getting along, but Baekhyun denies it), and large hands, and grunts.
"I don't like you."
So Baekhyun creates another list, and writes in his notepad.
THINGS I DON'T LIKE
1. Chanyeol's height
☁☁☁
When Baekhyun sees Chanyeol in the university's library, he immediately takes a detour, only to stop short when a loud "Hi Baekhyun!" is thrown at him, attracting the attention of distraught students and a harassed librarian. With a sigh, he turns around to see Chanyeol walk over to him, a big grin plastered on his face and did his eye just twitch?
"Baekhyun, Baekhyun!" Chanyeol says excitedly, bouncing on the spot and making Baekhyun's head throb. "Let's eat lunch together! I know this great place just outside campus-"
"I need to study," Baekhyun interrupts, picking at the lint clinging to the sleeve of his sweater. "And why do you think I would go with you?"
"Because I like you!" Chanyeol declares a little too loudly, attracting the glares of a few passersby and an indignant growl from the librarian a few meters away. Baekhyun's face heats up, and he looks up to glare at the other boy, only to see-
"Are you winking at me?" Baekhyun stares, and Chanyeol laughs a little too loudly and oh no the librarian is coming over-
"No! It just means that I'm really happy!" Chanyeol beams, and Baekhyun almost squints because Chanyeol's smile is too bright for him, seriously. "And unless you want to be chewed out by the old library lady, we should get out of here."
When Chanyeol treats him to beef ramyun with extra miso and vanilla ice cream, he tries not to blush and pulls out his notepad.
THINGS I DON'T LIKE
1. Chanyeol's height
2. Chanyeol's twitch
☁☁☁
When he bumps into Chanyeol at the bookstore, he has to rub his eyes repeatedly because Chanyeol is wearing normal teenager clothes and straight hair and non-retarded glasses and god damn he looks amazing.
"Earth to Byun Baekhyun!" Chanyeol chortles, comically waving a hand in front of Baekhyun's face, which the latter promptly swats away with a tinge of pink on his cheeks.
"W-what did you say?"
"I said," Chanyeol dramatically draws in a huge breath, and continues. "Would you like to go on a date with me?"
Baekhyun promptly chokes on his own spit, eyes widening as he tries to remain conscious because dear god he's being asked out on a date and he's never had to deal with this before. He tries to speak up, but his heart is blocking his throat and he only lets out a small squeak that vaguely sounds like "come again?"
"You're cute," Chanyeol says, plopping his right hand down on Baekhyun's head, looking serious. "Go out with me?"
Baekhyun wants to say no because he doesn't like Chanyeol. Chanyeol is trouble and he hates trouble. He has to say no. So he does.
"S-sure."
Close enough.
To this day, Baekhyun still doesn't know why he said yes to a date with Chanyeol. He blames it on his teeth. Those teeth were so bright, it probably temporarily blinded him and impaired his brain.

When Baekhyun is left alone at the bus stop under the cold, unforgiving rain, Chanyeol shows up with a broken umbrella and a frown.
"Baekhyun?"
"H-hello," Baekhyun says with trembling lips, clutching his soaked backpack closer to his chest and looking up at Chanyeol with lidded eyes.
"What the hell," Chanyeol rushes over to the drenched boy, discarding his impaled umbrella and choosing to wrap his arms around him. Baekhyun squeaks in protest, but Chanyeol ignores it. "Why didn't you call me or something? I was at the coffee shop across the street all afternoon!"
Baekhyun tries to break free of Chanyeol's hold, but despite the lanky arms and slim body, his grip is vise-like. "I had to finish something for my Psychology class..."
"Good thing I found you then," Chanyeol grins, already soaking wet too, and looking absolutely stunning, but Baekhyun will never admit to thinking that because no, he doesn't like Chanyeol. He shifts his hold slightly to make it more of an embrace, and Baekhyun thinks his cheeks are way too hot for this kind of weather.
It takes a while for the bus to arrive, but even in their seats, Chanyeol still has his arms around Baekhyun, and throughout the thirty minute ride, Baekhyun unconsciously leans into his embrace.
When he gets home and changes into his pajamas, he takes out his notepad that is, thankfully, still dry and writes on it with trembling fingers. He doesn't know why he's trembling though, but he's sure it has something to do with Chanyeol.

When Baekhyun fails his exam in Humanities, Chanyeol shows up on his front door with ice cream and his PS3, earning an unmanly squeal from the smaller boy.
"Chanyeol?" Baekhyun sputters, furiously wiping at his eyes with his damp sleeve and Chanyeol wants to screech because oh god, he's adorable. "What are you d-doing here?"
Chanyeol doesn't give him an answer though. Instead, he drags Baekhyun upstairs, hooks the game console up to the TV in Baekhyun's room, and puts a random game in. He tosses a controller to Baekhyun, who catches it with his face (ouch), and starts yelling "if you lose, you buy me lunch for the rest of the month!"
They're completely exhausted by two in the morning, sprawled on Baekhyun's carpet and half-asleep. Baekhyun hears a quiet shuffling and a familiar source of heat, and he opens his eyes to large ones and exposed teeth. He almost screams holy fuck, Chuckie has returned before he realizes who it is.
"Baekhyunnie," Chanyeol whispers, shifting closer to the smaller boy so that they're merely inches apart. "Did you have fun?"
Baekhyun thinks for a moment, mouth twisted in thought. Chanyeol starts to worry, evident on the slight frown on his face at the lack of response, so Baekhyun speaks up.
"Yes," Baekhyun chuckles, his long fingers smoothing out the creases on Chanyeol's forehead. "I had a lot of fun. Thank you."
Chanyeol lets out a laugh loud enough to wake up Baekhyun's neighborhood and the one next to it, setting off car alarms within a five-mile radius, and leans in closer to Baekhyun's face, completely ignoring the latter's look of surprise.
"You still owe me lunch," Chanyeol smiles, before kissing Baekhyun right on the lips, sending the older boy into a state of paralysis.
Baekhyun splutters incoherently, the butterflies in his stomach having a massive orgy. "W-what-"
"Good night," Chanyeol says sleepily, rolling over onto Baekhyun and latching onto his body. "I love you."
When Baekhyun wakes up in his rather empty bed, he goes over to his table to write on his notepad. He finds a small post-it on his laptop screen, and smiles.
"Cheer up! I can't keep coming over to your house everytime you're depressed, you know!"
This almost never happens, but Baekhyun smiles.

Byun Baekhyun dislikes a lot of things. He hates broken pencils and crumpled paper and failing grades, and he appreciates this about himself.
As Chanyeol walks toward him with an ice cream cones in both hands, he grimaces in disdain and pulls out his notepad.

He bites his lip, contemplating on the credibility of his list, and crosses some things out.

"Baekhyunnie," Chanyeol chimes, sitting down next to Baekhyun on the park bench and handing him an ice cream cone. He eyes the older boy when he swiftly stuffs the notepad back into his backpack. "What was that?"
"Nothing," Baekhyun shrugs, licking the melting ice cream dripping from the rim of the cone.
Chanyeol unleashes an earsplitting laugh, causing various joggers and dog-walkers to glare in his general direction, and throws his free arm around Baekhyun's shoulders. The latter side-eyes the taller boy, and blushes. "Chanyeol?"
"Mm?" Chanyeol responds, preoccupied with the big chunk of oreo in his ice cream.
"I still don't like you." Baekhyun says seriously, because he of course he doesn't like Chanyeol. Chanyeol breaks his pencils and laughs very loudly and fails most of his classes, and Baekhyun hates all of that.
Chanyeol just laughs though, because he knows what Baekhyun's trying to say.
"I love you too."
