Episode 4 - Meng Yao has a crush & Foxglove likes to babble

Hello everybody, welcome to episode 4. I slept like a baby last night, but I have a migraine so I may sound a bit incoherent. (Post episode Foxglove here, I’m not incoherent in this, I’m just ranty)

Poor WWX. Funny story, during my first? Second? Year of Med School I fell aspleep on my biophysics notes during exam period, woke up at 9pm when my alarm for my meds started ringing, realised what I’d done and called my mum (who was on a 24h shift at the hospital) crying. In hindsight is hilarious because I had something like two weeks until the exam so I lost no more than a few hours but oh well.

Full disclosure here: I don’t like the Lan sect, LXC, LWJ and the Ducklings excluded I think they’re a bunch of hypocrites. You can’t call yourself righteous and boast about your almost 4000 rules and then shrug when people decide to commit genocide.

Also, 4000-ish rules? Fuck that noise, there’s a post floating around here where some amazing soul translated what they could see of the Wall of Rules and yeah, some of them are in the “don’t be an asshole, don’t hurt yourself or others” vein which, absolutely fair. But things like “dress properly” who are you to tell me what and how I cover my body with? “Don’t be promiscuous” wow thanks for the slut shaming my dudes. “Don’t smile foolishly/don’t smile too much”, “sit properly”, “don’t be too sad”, “don’t be too happy”. You’re telling me these are rules, not guidelines, not common sense stuff. RULES. You’re telling me people get punished for grinning or crying. Fuck off mate.

And we can’t forget the golden example of hypocrisy “Don’t talk to Wei Wuxian” so much for “don’t speak ill of others”.

Is my Western Girl showing? I’m sorry, I’m from Spain and I was raised by the guidelines “don’t be an asshole, don’t hurt yourself or others, don’t take anyone’s bullshit, live and let live, have courage and be kind, we will always love and support you” so some stuff in here is very very grating. I don’t have enough knowledge about the culture to discern if it is because of my modern sensibilities or because my culture is so different.

Oooooohhh I don’t like birds. I mean, I love crows, ravens and birds of prey to an unhealthy degree, but they keep their distance. The other day a pigeon flew into my building and decided that my (very dark) doorstep was the place to have a rest. I screamed like a banshee.

Hey, those two assholes at the back, get the fuck out of here.

LXC protective mode activated.

You will never convince me Meng Yao did not develop a monster crush right then and there.

Oh no. It’s this asshole.

Oh WangJi about to cut a bitch.

Drag him WWX.

MY’s protective mode activated.

And LXC is too done with this shit. Yep, NHS also thinks MY got a massive crush.

WQ aka Qishan Wen’s only braincell.

It’s the One Braincell Trio!

Notice me sempai! Omg JC’s faces.

This is where I dump all my canon-divergence AUs:

Meng Yao stays in Cloud Recesses. He and LXC keep gazing longingly into each other’s eyes.

NHS introduces him to the other two from the One Braincell Trio. WWX takes one look at him and goes “yep, you’re my friend now, I’m kneecapping anybody who fucks with you.” Because there’s no way he wouldn’t be sympathetic to MY after his own childhood (omg, both of them drunk, making terrible gallows’ humour jokes about living poor and mostly homeless while JC and NHS just listen horrified). JC goes into overprotective bro mode with MY. I mean, he still can’t emote for shit but he’s made very very sure that he will cut a bitch for MY and at least he knows MY has a brain, not like someone else he knows.

Shijie makes friends with MY because Shijie is a goddess and MY is so confused because how the hell does someone so kind exist? And she wants to be friends? And she doesn’t care at all about his past? What? MY.exe has stopped working.

Maybe JZX gets his head out of his ass and goes to talk to MY and warn him about what an asshole JGS is, because I refuse to think JZX doesn’t know it. Maybe MY hears him disparaging Shijie and decides that nope, the Jins can fuck right off every single one of them is a rude idiot; it’s ok with him because of his parentage (it’s not ok) but no one touches Shijie. The Yunmeng sibs is where it is at.

And that’s when he unleashes his full Slytherin powers on behalf of his new family. Because he does indeed have a fully functioning brain and shit is going to get really ugly really fast for all the people he loves if he doesn’t try and mitigate the damage somehow.

(A lot of mutual XiYao pinning is going on in the background because I live for the angst ok. LWJ fully approves of him as a brother-in-law tho)

A lot of terrible shit still happens because this is my AU and I want pain, but not only does JGS not have MY’s enormous brain on his side when he tries to seize power, he’s actively working against him (you can’t tell me MY wouldn’t get the kick of his life publicly bringing down and exposing his terrible father).

I’m sorry, back to the commentary.

This two idiots omg.

It’s WQ! Drag him WQ (gently)

I’m going to channel my ballet teacher here for a second: put your hair up! (You bunch of spider crabs, as she would call us)

I mean, JC’s hair is clearly in his face when he’s doing drills and, while the visual of all that dark hair whipping in the wind with the robes (another beef I have, they look like they’d catch on everything) is very dramatic I can assure you it’s fucking annoying. Plus it limits your visual field a lot. Again, I know jack about the culture and people can fly on swords here so why am I complaining about hair but let me live.

I used to have that much hair (then I got a pixie, now I’m growing it back out) and smacking yourself on the face with your own braid hurts.

Shijie knows what’s up with Jiang “I can only show anger” Cheng.

My one track mind when I saw the fish: Anisakis!

I think I would absolutely become a vegetarian if I got dropped in the past tbh. Not only is there no quality control of animal products (hello Trichinella), there’s also no way to do a proper cold storage (hello Salmonella). I’ve read and seen to many horror stories due to contaminated animal byproducts and, while vegetables pose their own risk (hello E. Coli) usually you only have to be thorough at washing and peeling to not have trouble.

5am wake up call without coffee. Fuck that noise.

Wei “I’m a petty gremlin” Wuxian.

I once called WWX a “mad scientist with ADHD” on an AO3 comment and I stand by that assessment.

Ok, but why the turtle caricature? It’s because turtles are “old and wise” like LQR? Is that the joke? Or are they laughing at WWX’s balls?

AW NO PAPERMAN.

“Tell me, what would I get if I added powdered root of asphodel to an infusion of wormwood? // Where, would you look if I asked you to get me a bezoar? // And what is the difference between monkshood and wolfsbane?” It’s pretty much the same energy. LQR is Ancient magic China’s version is Severus Snape down to the pettiness. He tries to catch WWX in a mistake, and when he can’t he dismisses his knowledge (look at Shijie’s face when he says WWX should not be proud to know what he does). He keeps pushing until WWX’s runs into a wall, then uses LWJ to “show him how it’s done” I mean, look how smug he looks and how uncomfortable everyone else is.

“Pity... clearly, fame isn't everything.”

(No, I don’t like LQR and I don’t like Severus Snape either; tragic past and sacrifices do not give you a pass to abuse children don’t @ me, I’m not interested in changing my mind)

And here is where all my “mad scientist with ADHD” hc stem from.

“No screaming in Cloud Recesses.” Screams LQR (yes, I’m 100% that bitch)

WEN NING IS HERE HI WN YOURE SO PRECIOUS.

But intercepting an arrow mid flight is some Geralt of Rivia Witcher bullshit right there.

Detective Wei strikes again.

The scenery is gorgeous my god.

Can we talk again about how this 16-year-old boy reacted to someone sneaking up on him by drawing his sword and attacking? That’s not fucking normal, that’s a common reflex in soldiers or people with PTSD.

(The Netflix translation has him calling LWJ “WangJi” and I die)

Thanks for reading!

Chanyeol’s Valentine Disaster

Summary: Chanyeol tries his best to sweep you off your feet for Valentine’s Day, but things don’t go exactly as planned….

Genre: Fluff + a little bit of angst

Author’s Note: Hellooo, this fic was for a v-day collaboration I’m doing with a group of wonderful writers. The theme was “failed Valentine dates” and I chose Chanyeol :) It’s suppose to be a one shot, but tumblr is being a butt so I’ll need to make it two parts. Sorry about that! It’s a late Valentine’s Day gift, but oh well ^-^;;

This is also my first fic so please excuse me if there are any errors.

Shoutout to @yuki-starlight for checking my spelling and thank you @lucyandthepen for inviting me~

I hope you guys enjoy!

Part 2 is on my blog!

_________________________________________

You woke up in your bed, slightly freezing from the drift of the open window beside you. You were about to fall back asleep until you caught the scent of something awry in the air.

Is something burning?, you think to yourself. Your eyes immediately fly open when you hear the fire detector go off, pushing yourself off the bed, you run towards the kitchen.

“Chanyeol?” You cry out as you frantically wave the fumes of smoke out of your face.

You look through the smoke and see your boyfriend wearing a frilly pink apron in the smoky haze desperately trying to open a waffle iron with some silver tongs from the top drawer. He freezes after hearing your voice and turns to look at you.

“Y/N! You’re awake!” Quickly glancing from the blackened waffle in the waffle iron and then back to your face he tries to hide the burnt mess by putting it out of your view.

“This isn’t what it looks like?” He says meekly making it sound more like a question rather than a statement.

Sighing to yourself, you ask, “What in the world are you doing? It’s only 8 A.M. and our apartment is about to go up in flames.”

He sheepishly looks at you and replies, “I was planning on making you breakfast in bed and well,” He pauses and glances to the waffle iron on his right, “things didn’t go as planned.”

You sigh and chuckle to yourself. Looking around, you try and assess how much damage the tall giant has done to your kitchen. You see a tall wine glass filled with milk, a piece of burnt toast, and some badly chopped fruit in what looks like an outline of a gremlin on a heart-patterned tray you never knew you had.

Should I ask him what that’s supposed to be?, you refrain yourself from questioning him after looking at the downcast look on his face. You gently grab his arm and hold onto it while cupping his right cheek with your other.

You tilt your head upward slightly to see his face. “Chanyeol, this is very sweet of you to do, but you really didn’t have to. We both know what you’re like in the kitchen without someone supervising you.”

He looks down with a gloomy look on his face, closes his eyes and sighs, “I know, but it’s Valentine’s Day and I wanted to do something special for you. You seemed a little stressed this past week so I thought I could cheer you up a little. Plus, I wanted to take a picture of the food after I was done with it and send it to Kyungsoo to show him that I CAN cook without his help.”

Laughing, you try and fix the messy strands in his curly brown hair. “Thanks for trying, honey. The sentiment was nice enough for me and I,” you pause while glancing to the clock behind him and gasp, “I’m late!”

Letting go of his arm, you rush to the bathroom and prepare yourself for work. After putting on your usual formal attire for work, you come running back out to see him wearing a pair of pink rubber gloves scrubbing pieces of badly burned waffle batter off the waffle iron. He’s so sweet, you think and smile to yourself while rushing over to the shoe rack to put on your heels. After putting them on, you head for the door.

Realizing you’re about to leave, Chanyeol turns away from the sink, grabs a paper bag from the kitchen counter, and makes his way over to you. “Wait! Here, I made lunch for you. I swear it’s not burnt or anything.” He reassures you while handing it over to you.

“Aw, thanks sweetie! I’ll see you tonight!” grabbing the paper bag from his hand, you quickly walk over to him and give him a quick peck on the lips.

“Bye, Yeol!” you yell out to him and rush out the door while walking backwards to wave at him as you slowly make your way to the car.

“Bye, love you!” he yells out, waving back to you as he watches you from the door of your apartment. “Love you too!” You yell back, smiling to yourself while walking to your car.

You and Chanyeol have been dating for the past year and a half and it’s been wonderful. Sure you had some small arguments on things like what to watch on Netflix or who should wash the dishes or do the laundry, but you guys never had any big fights so things never got too bad.

There were some times where you both argued about the lack of time spent together considering how he had to spend most of his time at home composing songs on his computer and how you had to go and work at the office, but you both understood that your jobs were important and how much it meant to you both so those fights never lasted too long.

You could never really stay mad at him for it anyway. Especially when you saw how his eyes would gleam and how excited he would get talking about his new songs with you. That’s why every now and then, you guys would splurge on some money you two saved up the past and take a small vacation to places like the mountains or the beach to makeup for the little time you guys had together.

He wasn’t your first boyfriend though. You’ve been through some break ups in the past, but Chanyeol had a way where when you were with him, everything felt new and different. You never felt happier than when you were with him and you felt like he brought the best out of you. He could always make you feel better whenever you felt down and he could make you laugh so hard to the point tears were coming out of your eyes. You loved every second of your time with him, but you just wished you could actually have more time in the day to be together.

_________________________________________

Upon entering the office building, you push a button on the side of the wall for the elevator to come down.

I wonder if Chanyeol is done cleaning the kitchen, you think to yourself. I hope he didn’t leave the stove on or anything.

Before your brain could continue to think of all the disasters that might have happened in the house after you left, you see the elevator doors open and you walk inside.

Right when the elevator doors are about to shut, you hear someone call out to you, “Y/N, wait up!” You immediately push the button on the left wall to open the elevator doors and see your co-worker and friend, Baekhyun, jogging to you.

“Glad to see I’m not the only one late this time.” He says with a smile on his face.

You scoff at his joke and reply, “I would have been on time if my kitchen wasn’t up in smoke this morning.” His eyes widen and he asks you to explain what you’re talking about and you explain the disastrous episode in the kitchen to him.

“He really almost made your kitchen explode!” He exclaims astonished.

“You should have seen the look on his face when I caught him trying to open the waffle iron with tongs! He looked like a kid who got caught trying to steal candy from a supermarket.” Laughing, you both make your way out of the elevator when the doors open.

“Meet up for lunch?” He asks you.

“Yeah, sure! I’ll see you later.” You reply.

Giving you a thumbs up, he walks to his desk and begins to type on his computer. You walk to yours and sigh after seeing all the papers on your desk neatly lined up in a pile next to your laptop.

It’s gonna be a long day, brushing off your negative thoughts, you get to work.

_________________________________________

“I need a break.” You murmur to yourself while looking at your computer screen

Looking at the time on the clock on the wall, you see it’s time for lunch. Glancing to your left, you wonder if Baekhyun is still at his desk and you snort to yourself after you see him dozing off while the game, Solitaire, is displayed on his computer screen.

You make your way to his desk and shake his right shoulder. “Baek, wake up.”

Stirring a little, his eyebrows furrow, “Just go and get the cheese. No one’s watching.” he mumbles

Snickering you shake him harder, “Baekhyun, come on! It’s time for lunch. You can get the cheese you want over there.”

His eyes slowly opened and he looks up at you squinting for a good few seconds. “Mom?” He says out loud with a tone of confusion.

Bursting out with laughter you reply, “Yes, dear?”

Rubbing his eyes, he looks at you again and realizes that it’s actually you and not his mother. You’re bent over with laughter while he gives you a deadpan look. “Oh, haha. Very funny. Is it time for lunch already?”

Wiping the tears of joy from your eyes, you tease him by using you best baby voice, “Yeah, it’s time for wunch. Let’s go, sweetie. Do you wanna take your wittle wunch box with you?”

“Stop!” He whines putting his face in hands while his cheeks turn to a dusty red. “Let’s just go already.”

Laughing you reply, “Okay okay, let me just get the lunch from my bag.”

You walk to your desk and grab your lunch bag in your purse, but you notice that something feels off.

Why does this bag feel so light? you wonder and stick your hand in the paper bag and pull out a red rose.

You smile softly and as you look at it and reach back into the bag only to feel nothing inside.

What? He only got me a rose for lunch? You feel a buzz in your pocket and you pull out your phone.

*You have one new message!*

Unlocking your phone, you check the notification and realize it’s from Chanyeol.

Yeollie: Y/N

Yeollie: I FORGOT TO PUT YOUR SANDWICH IN THE BAG

Yeollie: I’M SO SORRY

Yeollie: D,:

“Oh my gosh.” You murmur

Y/N: lol

Y/N: It’s ok, I’ll just get some lunch from the. cafeteria

Yeollie: BUT I MADE IT OUT OF LOVE

MY LOVE

Y/N: Omg Yeol, it’s fine really

Yeollie: I’m sorry :’(

Y/N: The sentiment was nice enough

Thank you for the rose btw. Very sweet of you ♡

Yeollie: It would have been better with the sandwich I made you >:(

You laugh at his childish behavior and reply

Y/N: Yeeoooool, its ok! Really!

Yeollie: I’ll make it up to you I swear

Y/N: lol I’ll keep you to it then

gonna go get lunch ttyl!

Yeollie: Ok :(

Ily ♡

Y/N: I ly 2 ♡

“What’s up?” Baekhyun asks curious as to why it’s taking so long for you to get your lunch. Glancing at the paper bag in your hand, he grabs it from you.

“Chanyeol forgot to put my lunch in the bag”, you reply

He takes out the rose and admires it for a few seconds, “Well, at least he gave you a rose.” His eyes widen, “You think if you just put the petals in water, you’ll get rose water?”

He playfully hits you on the shoulder, “You could sell it by the bottle and make a nice load of money off of it!”.

You raise your eyes to the roof of the office and contemplate on how you became friends with someone so dumb.

“Baekhyun, I’m pretty sure that’s not how you make rose water.” You reply unamused. “Anyways, let’s go to the cafeteria. I’m starving!”

“Fine, but if that’s not how you make it, then why do they call it rose water? How do you think they make it?” He questions you as you both make your way to the see-through elevator

Rolling your eyes, you reply, “I don’t know, Baek. Look it up.” And made your way to the cafeteria.

_________________________________________

“That will be $7.99, please.” The cashier states while looking at the numbers on the screen of her computer.

“Here you go.” You reply and give her the cash from your wallet. After receiving your change, you put the change of coins in the see-through tipping jar that has “Feed Me Please!” inscribed on it.

Taking your tray of food you turn to the tables behind you and see Baekhyun waving to you while Chen is on the opposite side of the table motioning to you to come to where they are sitting.

Seating yourself down next to Baekhyun, you greet Chen on the other side of the table.

“How’s your day been, Chen?” You ask.

“Dreadful, you won’t believe what happened at my office today,” He says and put his hands on his face. “I opened the door to my office and the first thing I see is my trash can on fire and Sehun screaming while trying to dose it out with a water bottle.”

“Who’s Sehun?” Baekhyun asks.

“Just a co-worker of mine. He kept screaming ‘Chen, you’re trash can is mad! Hurry and call 911!’ So I just grabbed the bucket of fire and ran to the bathroom and took it out.”

“Damn, Chen, you’ve got some balls to actually hold it.” Baekhyun says while shaking his head impressed. “I would’ve just called the fire department. But wow, is this fire situation contagious or something? First it’s Y/N and now you. Am I gonna get the disease too?” Baekhyun questions with an infliction of fear in his voice.

You scoff at Baekhyun and his dramatics while Chen looks between you and Baekhyun in confusion

“What’s he talking about?” Chen asks with his eyebrows furrowed. He looks at you and asks, “Did something happen to you?”

You explain to Chen what happened in the morning with Chanyeol in full detail.

“That idiot!” Chen exclaims with a look of disbelief on his face, “How could he be so dumb?” He asks.

“Chanyeol is Chanyeol.“ Baekhyun says while putting a hand on his heart and gives the two of you a sincere look. "As his best friend, I have seen the ups and downs of that man. Once, he managed to trip over a can of Pepsi on the floor NINE times.” He lifts up his hands and shows nine digits for emphasis. “All in thirty minutes!” He raises both of his arms in exasperation.

“There was another time,” he continues while trying to hold back his laughter. “Where he thought his phone was his cup of water and he threw the cup of water on his bed instead of his phone.” Letting out a boisterous laugh, Chen looks at you, “You’ve got quite the man, Y/N.”

Snorting you reply, “Hey look, he might now be the brightest, but he IS the sweetest. He always does his best to comfort me when I’m having period cramps. He’ll rub my back and give me chocolate and he waits for me when I come home from work late. Plus, he’s taking me out to dinner tonight at some fancy restaurant for Valentine’s Day.”

You see the look on both of their faces and chuckle with how disgusted they look. “Don’t look so grossed out, guys. You’ll think it’s cute when you find someone to do these kinds of things with.”

Baekhyun rolls his eyes and gives you a pointed look, “I’ll have you know I can have all those cute mushy moments with someone. I just haven’t found them yet.” Grabbing his cup of water on the table, he takes a sip and continues. “I’ll meet the girl of my dreams one day. We’ll lock eyes and then I’ll walk over to her and introduce myself and boom!” Baekhyun says while using his hands to gesture an explosion. “Next thing you know we’ll be married with a kid living in a mansion.”

“Woah, hold on there,” Chen interjects. “You might want to try and take her out on a date first. But one kid? Really? I always felt like you would want more.”

“Mm, I’ve thought about it, but that’s just so much work and I want to spend a lot of my time with my wife.” Baekhyun replies, resting his chin on the palm of his hand with a dreamy look in his eyes and a goofy smile.

You snort and Chen looks to you, eyes widening as if he remembered something. “Speaking of kids, are you going to be babysitting that toddler tomorrow? It’s every other Sunday right?”

“Ah, yeah. That’s what the plan is anyway.” You say while shrugging. “He’s a real cutie. His mom is pretty smart. She gave me a bag full of the boy’s stuff just in case she had to leave him with me in case of an emergency.”

“Oh, that’s smart of her.” Chen agrees.

“Isn’t it? Anyways back to the topic at hand, how’s your love life been, Chen?” You question him. “We’ve given you our daily update, what’s yours?”

“I’m actually better off by myself. Thank you very much.” Chen states with his head slightly lifted and a haughty expression on his face.

You and Baekhyun stare at him in silence for a good five seconds before he continues.

“What? You don’t think I can be a strong independent man?” He questions the two of you with his upper eyebrows raised.

After another few seconds of silence, his shoulders droop and he sighs

“Well, you’re right.” he admits, immediately putting his head in his arms that are resting on the table and starts to whine. “I’ve gone on so many dates and I still can’t find a man that can reach at least the minimum of my expectations! Is God being cruel? Does he not like me? Why am I this unlucky?”

You look at his depressed state with pity. You’ve known Chen for a good five years. The two of you met in college and became friends after meeting at a party. The both of you didn’t drink so you two were the only two sober kids there and quickly became friends after realizing you both liked the same show. You knew Chen was always looking for the right guy to come his way and you started to feel pity for him since he wasn’t having any luck in that area for quite some time now.

Feeling sympathy for him, you pat his head and try to reassure him. “Aw, come on Chen! I’m sure the right guy will come along soon! You just need to keep trying!”

You notice Baekhyun suddenly sits up straight and claps his hand together. “Oh, that reminds me! I think you might be interested in this guy I met at that one club I go to. He’s got everything you’re looking for! He’s smart, funny, kind, and financially stable. You guys even watch the same television shows!”

Chen instantly lifts his head with a surprised look on his face and asks, “You found someone who watches Strong Woman Do Bong Soon? ”

“The one with the Hulk lady right?”

Chen nods quickly.

“Yeah, he watches it too. Here’s his phone number.” He slides a small piece of ripped paper with the man’s number scribbled on it to Chen. “His name is Minseok Kim and he’s an accountant. I have a feeling you two will hit it off.” Baekhyun says smugly while giving a wink.

Chen takes the piece of paper off the table and inputs the number scrawled on it as a new contact on his phone. “Thanks, Baek. Let’s hope you’re right about this.”

You see Chen’s eyes wander to the time on the top right screen of his phone and he quickly stands up, “Shoot, I’m late for my meeting. I got to go and do my presentation on electronics and what it does to children. I’ll see you guys later!”

“We better hear more about you and Minseok the next time we see you!” You yell out to him while Chen gives you a thumbs up and runs to the elevator almost tripping on a small white napkin on the marbled floor. The two of you wince as you watch him stumble on his way to the elevator.

“I swear that man needs to be more careful.” You murmur and Baekhyun nods in agreement. You look down at your watch and realize lunchtime is about to be over.

“Well, it’s time to head back to work,” you say and you put your phone in your left back pocket of your jeans. “Come on, Baek.” You tell him while nudging your head to the elevator.

Baekhyun’s slouches in his seat and moans while using his best baby voice, “But Mom! I don’t wanna go.”

You laugh seeing him pout at you and you’re surprised that he’s actually wanting to play along now. You respond with a motherly tone, “Come on sweetie, lunchtime is over. If you work hard enough in class, I’ll let you have nappy time early today.”

His eyes widen, “Really? You mean that, Mommy?”

“Mhm.” You hum while nodding.

“Okay, Mommy! I’ll be good and clean up my mess.”

He then stands up and makes a heart over his head with his arms and shouts, “I love you, mom!” in front of the whole cafeteria.

You immediately look around and see that some of the people in the cafeteria are looking at the two of you with a shocked look on their faces.

“Baekhyun!” You hiss and look back at him only to see a smug and cocky look in his eyes. You drag him out of the cafeteria and once the two of you are out of sight, you slap him on the arm. “You idiot! People are gonna think you’re my son now!”

He grins, “What’s the matter, Mom?”

You glare and respond, “Haha, you got me. Now quit it.”

“And what will you do if I don’t?” He challenges you with his arms folded.

“Well,” You pause and look back at him with a wicked grin and a look in your eyes that causes Baekhyun’s cocky demeanor to change. He takes a step back out of fear of not knowing what you’re planning to do.

You take a step closer and yell, “I’ll just do this!” You put his head in a headlock and ruffle his light brown hair messing up his perfectly styled hair.

“Y/N! I spent an hour on this!” he shrieks

“Y/N? What happen to mommy?” You tease him.

“I won’t call you that again I swear!” He pleads.

“Okay, good!” You say and let go of his head. “Glad we could handle this in a civil like manner.”

You pat your jeans wiping off any dust from them while Baekhyun scowls at you.

“You can be a real demon sometimes.” Baekhyun murmurs while he tries to pat down all the loose hair strands on his head with his right hand.

“It’s all out of love, my dear,” You reply with a sugary tone in your voice and pull out a small purple hairbrush from your brown leather purse. “Here, use this. You’re lucky I brought this with me otherwise you’d look like you just got out of bed for the rest of the day.” You say and hand him the hairbrush. “Go to the bathroom and fix it.”

Grabbing the hairbrush out of your hand, he responds, “I’ll meet you back at the office.”

You look at him and ask him with a bit of uncertainty, “Are you sure you don’t want me to wait for you? You usually complain if I try and leave.”

He nods, “Yeah, this might take a while.”

You nod back, “Ok, I’ll see you there then. Don’t stay in there too long. You know how Kyungsoo gets when he doesn’t see you working.” You say as you slowly walk backwards toward the elevator.

“Yeah yeah, it’ll only take like fifteen minutes. Don’t worry,” He replies and starts walking backwards to the bathroom himself. “I’m sure our leader won’t mind if I’m a little late.”

Rolling your eyes, you reply, “I’ll try and make something up for you if Kyungsoo asks me where you are.”

He smiles and gives you a thumbs up and turn to the bathroom. You turn and walk to the elevator only to stop after you hear him yelling behind you.“Thanks, Mom!”

You look back at him with a playful glare. “Don’t make regret giving that to you, young man.”

_________________________________________

Scrubbing the kitchen floor, Chanyeol berates himself on how awful this morning went.

"I can’t believe I broke the waffle iron AND forgot to pack her sandwich in the lunch bag. All I wanted to do was make her something to eat. I should have been more careful.” He says outloud to himself

Sighing, he gets up and drops the towel on the kitchen countertop.

“Some cook I am.” He murmurs dispirited.

He glances at the picture of the two of you on the wall and sadly smiles to himself. It’s a picture of your faces together and he’s giving you a kiss on the cheek while you’re bashfully looking the other way. He loves how attentive you are whenever he discuss ideas for songs or when you would give him something to munch on when he was too immersed in his songwriting. He loved how comfortable he was when he was with you and how you could cheer him up whenever he felt down. The two of you had your own little world and nothing would matter.

He noticed the little things about you like when you would sometimes hum while you were walking or when you were contemplating something, your eyebrows would furrow and you would bite your lip in frustration. It was a cute expression you had, but he was seeing it a lot more lately and it was usually when you were with him. He wasn’t sure of what was wrong and you never really said anything about it, but it was beginning to make him worry that something was up.

“~Hello angel, look at the sky. In my eyes you’re perfect like a painting~”

Chanyeol jumps at the sound of his ringtone playing and picks up the phone. Seeing the ID name “Angel” flashing on it, he realizes it’s you.

Why is Y/N is calling? She usually doesn’t call when she’s working. Did something happen? Chanyeol wonders and answers the call.

“Hey, honey. What’s up?”

Hearing silence coming from your end, he asks again.

“Babe?”

He starts to hear some shuffling in the background and some muffled voices coming through. Thinking you’ve butt-dialed him, he’s about to end the call until he hears something that makes him freeze in his spot.

“But Mom! I don’t wanna go.”

What?

“Come on sweetie, lunchtime is over. If you work hard enough in class, I’ll let you have nappy time early today.”

His eyes widen realizing that’s your voice

“Really? You mean that, mommy?”

“Mhm.”

What’s happening? he thinks to himself. Why is he calling her his “mommy”?!

“Ok, mommy! I’ll be good and clean up my mess.”

Am I dreaming? Is he really calling her “mom”?

“I love you, mom!”

Desperately trying to hear more of the conversation, Chanyeol’s tight grip on the phone causes his index finger to slip and it accidentally pushes the ‘end call’ button.

“No,” Chanyeol shouts out. “No! No! No!”

He looks at the screen frantically trying to figure out a way to eavesdrop back into the conversation. After a few minutes of searching through Google for any solutions, he gives up and puts the phone on the kitchen countertop. Scratching his hair, he starts to pace around in the kitchen while biting his thumb.

This is impossible! There’s no way she could hide something like this from me! I’ve never seen a child here! Although, it does get pretty messy in the house every now and then. But, that doesn’t mean that there’s a baby living in this house right? He immediately stops pacing and looks at your room. There’s only one way to find out.

Chanyeol isn’t the type to snoop around his girlfriend’s apartment, but he believes he doesn’t have a choice this time and quickly makes his way to your room.

If I was Y/N, where would I put my kid’s stuff? He starts off by looking under your bed only to find a black pen and a yellow cap and then quickly moves on to the dresser only to find stacks of clothing in each drawer. Would she put them in the closet? He wonders and opens the closet door.

Upon entering the room, he turns on the lights and briskly checks the shelves thinking there might be some hidden compartment behind one of the objects like the ones he’s seen in movies. Realizing there was nothing there, he goes to the wall next to the shelves of shoes and feels something bump against his foot, looking down he spots a box underneath some hangers of clothes. Pushing the hangers of clothes away from his field of vision, he bends down and quickly lifts the cover of the box and freezes.

Oh my God. It IS true! She has a kid! How? How is this possible?! He thinks to himself while carefully taking out the contents of the box. He places each item on the floor beside the box and looks at them in wonder. A couple pairs of toddler underwear, a bottle of baby powder, three sets of toddler pajamas, and a baby blanket leave Chanyeol speechless.

What do I do? Why would she hide this from me?! How do I talk to her about this? I need to tell someone about this or I’m gonna lose my mind!, Chanyeol quickly gets up and sprints to the kitchen and picks up his phone.

Calling Baekhyun, Chanyeol taps his fingers on the kitchen countertop. “Come on, Baekhyun! Pick up already!” Chanyeol murmurs impatiently. After three missed calls, Chanyeol decides to call Kyungsoo instead. “Come on, come on, come on. Pick up!” after hearing it reach voicemail, he decides to text Kyungsoo instead.

Chanyeol: KYUNGSOO

PICK UP

Satansoo: What

Chanyeol: PICK UP

ITS AN EMERGENCY

Satansoo: How bad is it?

Chanyeol: BAD

FREAKING

OUT

PICK UP YOUR PHONE

Satansoo: Fine

Chanyeol calls him again and bites his lip until he hears Kyungsoo pick up.

“What is it?” Kyungsoo ask monotonously

“Dude, I’m freaking out! I-I’m so confused, I don’t know how she could hide something like this from me!”

“You mean Y/N?”

“Yeah!” Chanyeol shouts exasperated.

“What happen?”

“Kyungsoo, I think-,” He pauses and swallows trying to stay calm. “I think she has a kid.”
