Summary: Some scars never fully heal, and Chanyeol knows it all too well. He's spent most of his life running from his past because of it. But when he's sent on a mission to find a lost prince and instead meets a boy without a home, history begins to catch up and running is no longer an option.
Author's Note: Firstly, I would like to say to my prompter: thank you for giving me such an amazing prompt, and I apologise if I couldn't do it justice. This prompt was definitely a challenging one for me, and I ended up writing more than 10k of it in the space of a few hours. I really wanted to make this a longfic for you, and unfortunately some last-minute things came up in real life that meant I couldn't give it as much attention as I wanted to (which explains the pacing issues and the lack of proofreading, but I know I shouldn't be giving excuses). I hope it's still somewhat up to scratch. I would also like to thank S for our banter about being terrible at sticking to deadlines, it may seem inconsequential but it did help me calm down quite a bit. Lastly, I would like to thank the mods for putting up with me and my inability to write to deadlines and constant requests for extensions. Thank you for being so understanding and not just dropping me, your patience is something I admire and envy to no end. Finally, I would like to say thank you in advance to the readers, and I hope what I serve up for BAE satiates your appetite! Bon appétit!
