Last Chapter (1/1)

"I think that I am in love with you, Kyungsoo."  The words echoed in his mind. "I think that I am in love with you, Kyungsoo."  Again and again. When Baekhyun opened his eyes, his heart pounded heavily in his chest. He tried to sit up and groaned; he felt like being run over by a truck. Well, rather a steam roller. He had a heavy headache and his throat felt terribly dry. While he was gulping down the water that was standing at the night table, he tried to remember what happened.How did he get home and how did he manage to get into bed... Kyungsoo's bed. Baekhyun slowly let his fingers run over the sheet, there were two pillows, so someone was sleeping next to him. "I think that I am in love with you, Kyungsoo." Baekhyun whimpered like a little pup, he didn't really say that to Kyungsoo, right? He again tried to remember what happened the night before. He wandered around and found a bar, he drank one, maybe two beers... okay it was more than that, but what happened after that? He wrote a message to Sehun, to come and pick him up, but Kyungsoo came for him instead. And then... in the car... Baekhyun threw himself theatrically on the sheets, he rolled into the blanket and planned to stay there for the rest of his life. „No, no, no... I didn't say that to him. I didn't confess to him.“ Baekhyun stilled for a few seconds. "I think that I am in love with you, Kyungsoo." Baekhyun tossed and turned around in his blanket cocoon, trying not to scream out loud. His heart hammered in his chest uncontrollably, his breath was unsteady. After a while, he had no energy left, so he stopped tossing around and held still. He listened to the voices coming from the kitchen.  He almost started crying when he heard Kyungsoo's voice. “Please put this into the fridge too.” “You didn't even like strawberry yoghurt, hyung.”, Baekhyun heard Sehun saying. Baekhyun crawled to the door and left it a little more ajar. “But Baekhyun does.” His heart hammered audibly, when Kyungsoo said his name. “Put it at the end of the fridge, he doesn't seem to find it when I put it within eyeshot.”Baekhyun heard Kyungsoo chuckle and he felt himself melting at the sound. “You are weird, hyung.”, Sehun commented, but judging from the sound, he did as he was told anyway.  “So are you. Do you hear me complaining?” “You should tell him, hyung.” Tell me what?A thousand thoughts run through Baekhyun's mind, all circled around how Kyungsoo would reject him. How Kyungsoo would tell him that he likes him, indeed, but as a friend and as a bandmate. Then Kyungsoo will keep his distance, because how should he treat someone who is in love with him? Kyungsoo's voice interrupted his thoughts. “I know and I will tell him.” Baekhyun leant forward with the upper part of his body the best he could, the blanket still draped around him.  “I just thought that he needs more time.” More time to nurse my broken heart? “I just wished he would...” He somehow lost his balance, toppled forward and closed the door unintentionally. But loudly. As fast as possible, Baekhyun tried to crawl back to the bed, but before he could reach it, the door opened with a gentle sound. “Baekhyun?” Baekhyun stopped immediately, he was laying on the floor, just besides the bed. He was glad that he was able to hid within the blanket completely. Kyungsoo tried again, his voice still soft, “Baekhyun.” When he didn't answer, Kyungsoo sighed and sat down on the bed. After a while, he tried to speak to the other again, “We have to talk, Baekhyun.” When there was still no answer, Kyungsoo stood up and went over to him. Baekhyun panicked and tried to wiggle his way out, but Kyungsoo was faster and simply sat down on him. With quick and strong hands, Kyungsoo uncovered Baekhyun's face. And saw him... crying. “Baekhyun, what is...” Baekhyun was sobbing uncontrollably. He covered his face that was drowned in tears with his hands. His hands shook and his tears rolled down his face. “I...”, he tried, “I am... Kyungsoo, I am sorry.” Kyungsoo removed Baekhyun's hands as gentle as possible, so that he was able to see the other's face. “Please stop crying, what are you sorry for?” Baekhyun needed a while, until he was able to speak again. “I am sorry that I love you.”, he sobbed. When he saw Kyungsoo's face, his handsome and somehow worried looking face, he couldn't stop new tear falling down his cheeks. Kyungsoo held Baekhyun's hand with his one hand, with the other, he softly wiped away his tears. The gentleness calmed Baekhyun down, his breathing slowly got normal. “Did you calm down?”, Kyungsoo asked with a little smile on his lips. “Can we talk now?” Because of his heavy crying, Baekhyun was hiccuping. “What... do you want.. to speak about? About the fact that you don't like me?” He tried to fight back his tears again.  Baekhyun was baffled when Kyungsoo smiled at him as an answer. “So you do remember what you said to me yesterday?” Baekhyun blushed and tried to hid into the blanket again, but Kyungsoo just laughed and held his hands securely in his own. “Why do you think I don't like you back?” Baekhyun averted his gaze. “Look at me please.” Kyungsoo went on when Baekhyun finally looked at him again, “I never told you that I don't like you back.” It was true, he never did, Baekhyun thought. “But you never told me that you like me.” Kyungsoo sighed, but smiled nonetheless, “You just confessed to me yesterday.” Baekhyun stopped hiccuping, so there was hope for him?He still was afraid of being rejected, but still he wanted to go all out.  His heart was hammering that heavily in his chest, that he was sure that Kyungsoo could hear it. He took a deep breath. “I am in love with you, Kyungsoo.” Kyungsoo's hand was still on the other's face, still caressing it gently. He cupped Baekhyun's face with his both hands and closed the gap between them, until his lips were just a breath away from Baekhyun's. “I love you too, Baekhyun.” Before he could answer anything, Kyungsoo closed the gap between them completely. Kyungsoo's lips felt so wonderfully right on his own. Baekhyun sighed into the kiss and pulled Kyungsoo closer to him until there was no space between the two of them. When Kyungsoo broke the kiss after a while, he saw that Baekhyun was blushing furiously. “I thought you wouldn't like me.”, Baekhyun said while playing with Kyungsoo's hands. “Why is that?”, the man on top of him asked with a played curiosity, “Because you are loud and jealous and way too playful?” Baekhyun huffed. “And I like that every aspect of you”, Kyungsoo continued, “Except the jealousy perhaps, because there is really no need for that.” Baekhyun hummed in agreement. “But I just realized that I like you because I was jealous.” Baekhyun now fumbled with his own fingers, he was still nervous and he just couldn't believe that Kyungsoo liked him back. “When did you realize?” “I like you a whole while now. But I wanted to wait for you. I wanted you to notice my feelings towards you and I waited if you felt the same for me.” Just in this moment, Sehun entered the room, without saying a word. His arms were folded behind his back, his face was without any motion. Then, he looked at the two men on the floor, suddenly smiled and threw red rose petals at the two of them. “Congratulations.” Without another word, he left the room with a grin. Baekhyun and Kyungsoo laughed out loud at the same time. Baekhyun pulled the other towards him again and placed a sweet kiss on his lips. “I am all yours.”   Baekhyun always shared. He shared the attention of his parents with his brother, his food with his members and when it was needed, his secret stash of sweets with Sehun. He shared because he was used to it and he liked it. But there was one thing that just belonged to himself, and just himself: Kyungsoo's love.     END
