Chansoo au [Reposted]

Chanyeol has to live up his image as a perfect persona much to expectations as the son of an influential person. Nobody knows how vulnerable he actually is, except the one he got married to (unwillingly), so the twist of his story begin.

[ Backstory ]

Chanyeol's always try to win his father's favor. He wants him to be proud of him. While his mother is always his number one supporter. Unfortunately, the father doesn't care about anything except for wealth and reputation, that's the reason chanyeol spends his

whole life to win his father recognition. He appear to be perfect in front of everyone. But little did they know, he cries in the dark feeling unworthy and not enough. Meanwhile his mother loves his son enough to care about his love life. So, she made a promise to her bestfriend

to marry off their son together. Chanyeol agrees without much thinking, not that he cares anyway'

On the other side, kyungsoo's readily accepts his late mother's last wish to marry her bestfriend's son. Marriage is a huge deal, he knows but his mother is a priority and he

trusts his mother enough to agree on such arrangement, not that he ever loved anybody tbh, so it saves the efforts finding life partner.

That's how he find himself married to the one and only, perfect Park Chanyeol. It's burdensome to even think about it, he prefers someone

ordinary. It doesn't help either that this chanyeol doesn't smile at him on their wedding day. He sighs on their first night of living together, staring at his husband's back who sleeps back facing him

"This gonna take a lot of efforts to make things work"

Kyungsoo wakes up alone on his bed, he looks at the clock "07:00 am". He groans lazily, feeling a headache coming up. He could not sleep properly last night. Everything feels so foreign and he's lying if sleeping with another person on the same bed doesn't affect him at all

Even if it seems like chanyeol doesn't even care. They don't even exchange a proper introduction after the wedding, they don't have the chance to talk to each other. They're practically stranger but they're married now. Kyungsoo is not ready to face reality

He tidies up their bed and goes out to see chanyeol is having a breakfast. Kyungsoo suddenly feels awkward, not knowing what to do. He opens the fridge, searching for anything but it's almost empty. He is really not familiar with this apartment belongs to chanyeol

He moved in last night and everything is just unfamiliar to him.
"Uhm" he clears his throat. Chanyeol doesn't even flinch
"Come here, have some breakfast" finally he says. His deep and cold voice make kyungsoo shivers
Kyungsoo makes his way to the sit across him.

Chanyeol push the plate to him
"Serve yourself"
Kyungsoo starts pouring himself tea and takes a bite if the sandwich. He swears he could feel chanyeol is staring on him
"What's your name?" Chanyeol suddenly asks
Ok that's unexpected

How could he marry someone without knowing his name ? They practically says his name multiple time during the wedding. It just shows how ignorant he is
"You don't know my name?" He challenges, looking at chanyeol directly
"Do you know mine?"
"Yes Park Chanyeol"

"Well, I knew your name, but I forgot it today. Is it Kyusu?"
"Doh Kyungsoo, nice to meet you mr husband" kyungsoo rolls his eyes
"Your a Park now tho"
Kyungsoo shrugs
"Do you like me ?" Chanyeol asks suddenly, makes kyungsoo chokes on his tea.

He cough several time while chanyeol grimaces
"what?" he steady himself.
"You heard me"
"I don't know how to answer that"
"It's not a hard question tho. Yes or no"
"No?"
"Is that a question ?"

"No. I mean. We just met, I dont even know you, so--"
"It's a no then, you don't have to explain yourself"
Kyungsoo goes red
"Well, I don't like you neither"
"Excuse me?!" kyungsoo offended
"What?" chanyeol raises his eyebrows
"Aren't you too straightforward?"

"It's a healthy conversation, let's be clear since we'll live together from now on"
Kyungsoo scoffs "So you do realized you're married to me"
"That doesn't mean anything to me"
"Oh good for you but I'm uncomfortable"
"Why ?"
"Are you seriously asking me that?"

"Do I look like I'm joking?"
"Ugh" kyungsoo groans
"Look, marriage is a huge deal since we'll be living with each other from now on. So it'll take a lot of efforts to make it work since we're practically strangers. You don't even remember my name, how is that not making me

uncomfortable?"
Chanyeol stares at him
"What?"
"I never know marriage is such a big issue for you"
"Well, it isn't for you?"
"I don't really care, as long as my mom's happy, plus I don't have any feelings for you"

kyungsoo scoffs "What makes you think I have feelings for you?"
"you said you want to make it works"
"Of course I am, it's my mom's last wish for me to marry you, I'm not gonna take this lightly, but seems like you hate me so much, forget about making things work"

"I don't hate you"
"You dont?"
"I just don't care about marriage, it doesn't make any different in my life. At least my mom's happy but I don't feel anything to be honest"
"Well, I don't know how to respond to that"

"Hmm let's just see how it turns out in the end. We could at least be friends ?"
"Is life that simple to you?"
"I wish kyungsoo, I wish"

The sudden change of mood is unexpected. Kyungsoo doesn't know what to say. It feels like he just brought up a very sensitive topic.

He's contemplating on asking what's wrong but chanyeol cuts him off
"Anyways, I need to go to work, i've been delaying so many works due to the wedding, I'm pretty sure my father would not like that"
"Uhm okay"
Chanyeol stands up and get ready

"You don't have works?" Chanyeol look at kyungsoo questioningly
"uhh my boss gave me 3 days off due to the wedding"
"Must be nice, you have plans then?"
"Uhm not really, not yet. Uhm I can do groceries shopping? The fridge is almost empty" chanyeol looks around the kitchen

"Right, I never bought too much stuffs since I lived alone-- okay, please buy everything necessary, I'll pay for it"
"Uhm isn't it better if we split the bills equally?"
"It's okay, I have more money anyway" chanyeol gives him a glance before walking out the door.

Not even "I'll leave now" or a "goodbye" from him. Not that kyungsoo care but it's basic courtesy for living together. Kyungsoo groans "it's gonna be a long journey ahead" he sighs. He checks on the kitchen and starts listing the stuffs he needs to buy.

"Mom, I hope you make the right decision, I hope I make the right decision" he whispers to himself

He takes out his phone and messages Baekhyun his bestfriend.

It's past midnight, but chanyeol doesn't come home yet. Kyungsoo is really sleepy and wants to sleep already but he's a man with manner, it's not even his apartment, not even his bed, it's only natural to wait for chanyeol right? So he texts him

Kyungsoo is not even surprised the other doesn't save his number and the fact that he's working to the extent of not coming home? Is it gonna be like this from now on? Kyungsoo shrugs, he doesn't know what to expect

"Aren't you going back home?" comes jongin, his bestfriend
"I still got works to do" Chanyeol shrugs
"You just got married yesterday"
"And what about it?"
"Don't you have husband waiting for you at home?"
"He's not waiting for me. I told him I'm not coming home tonight"

Jongin sighs, shaking his head as he leans on the wall. "I heard about your father"
Chanyeol tenses up at the mention of his father. He stops and looks at jongin "Are you gonna nag on me too? Look down on me?"
"Chanyeol, your father is just being an asshole"

Chanyeol snorts, he takes a deep breath
"Why is it so hard to make him like what I did?"
"To be fair, you've done your best so far, I don't understand his way of thinking too"
"I will never be enough for him"
"Is it why you're here? Working your ass off?

You need rest chanyeol. Take a day off"
"I can't, not when he expects so much from me"
"You're killing yourself"
"I am dying everyday anyway, what makes it different?"
"What he says about your husband then?"

"He doesn't even care that I'm married, all he care is that I do my works"
"At least your mom concern about you. otherwise your gonna die being old and virgin"
Chanyeol snorts "I'm not feeling the wedding yet tbh"
"It's because youre here instead of being with him"

"I don't even know who he is"
"Well I think he's cute"
"Hmm maybe he's cute"
"oohh, are we gonna finally see you fall in love?"
"That's not gonna happen anytime soon. Not on my list"
"We'll see"
Chanyeol raises his eyebrows
"Are you going home ?"

"Yeah. You need to go home too, I heard its spooky staying up alone in this particular room"
"you're not gonna scare me jongin"
Jongin chuckles "I mean it about you taking a break chanyeol, you look like shit"
Jongin dodges on the crumpled paper thrown at him while chuckling

Chanyeol resumes his works but thoughts start bothering him. He can't even think and his head hurts "fuck!" he curses and throw the paper in front of him.
He grabs the car keys and goes to his favorite bar. It's always been like this, he getting a lot of stress from works, his

father always know how to torment him with his words. So being drunk makes him forget. Usually he will just go home, have a lot of drinks and sleep it off but there's another man in his apartment now. He doesn't want to show kyungsoo his real self, so he goes to the bar instead

Kyungsoo still having a hard time sleeping on a bed that isn't his. When chanyeol told him that he's not going back home tonight, he goes to sleep immediately, not before having trouble to find the comfortable position to sleep. When he finally goes into sleep, his phone's

ringing. He groans and ignores it but it keeps ringing. Just when he's about to answer it, the ringing stop. He narrow his eyes on the caller id, it reads "Park Chanyeol". That wakes him up completely wondering if there's something important. Before he presses the call button,

a new message comes in by Park Chanyeol and instantly surprised him the moment he open the message.

"is this the work you said you're doing?" He rolls his eyes. He grab the car keys and later turn on the navigation to the said place. For some reason, his hearts beating rapidly. Is it annoyance? Is it anger ? Is it worry? He doesn't know, what he knows is his chest tighten

Kyungsoo enters almost empty bar in a rush and immediately greet by a giant slumped on the table
"Hi, I'm kyungsoo, I'll take him home" kyungsoo says to the bartender who gives him an okay sign
Kyungsoo tries to figure out on how do he bring this giant to his car

When he pulls chanyeol's arm, the other groans
"Leave me alone" he groans lazily
"Don't touch me. I'm not interested to have sex with you" kyungsoo rolls his eyes. The bartender chuckles at them
"Come on chanyeol, let's go, you're drunk" kyungsoo tries

That makes chanyeol looks up to him and stares at him for a while. Suddenly, kyungsoo feels self-conscious with the staring.
"You're cute" chanyeol blurts out catching kyungsoo off guard
"But I don't want to have sex with you. I have a husband " he adds , Kyungsoo groans

He pulls chanyeol's arm a little forcefully making the giant lean on his body. Kyungsoo wants to puke at the smell of alcohol but he holds it. After so much struggles, he manages to drags chanyeol to the car and put seatbelt on him. Chanyeol keeps murmuring things he doesn't care

"Where are we going?" Comes the hoarse but lazy voice
Kyungsoo just starts driving, ignoring the drunk man beside him while once again contemplating his life choices
"I have to go to work" chanyeol whines
"Chanyeol, you're drunk"

"My father doesn't care if I'm drunk, he only care about works, I want to work, I want him to be proud of me" chanyeol whispers
Kyungsoo pretends to not hearing any of the words
The moment they reach their now shared apartment, chanyeol starts rambling again

"Why am I never good enough? I thought everyone deserved to be loved, am I that worthless?"
Kyungsoo just keep silence. He once again drags chanyeol onto the bed
"Hey cute guy" chanyeol whispers in his ears while they're walking. Kyungsoo shivers

"Are you ignoring me too? Yes, that's right. I don't deserve your attention, I don't deserve your love or anyone. I'm worthless. Hey at least I still have a dick, we can have a great sex" chanyeol leans in but groans when kyungsoo pushes him to bed "fuck off!" he shouts

"Are you rejecting sex with me too?" Chanyeol giggles and suddenly tears streaming down his face. Kyungsoo is dumbfounded with the sudden change of mood
"I'm sorry" comes a muffled cry. Kyungsoo decides on bringing some clean clothes for chanyeol but stops when a hand encircled

his wrist
"I don't know you. But please don't leave me" chanyeol says timidly and chokes his sobs. Kyungsoo's heart breaks seeing this newfound vulnerable state of his husband. He sighs and sits beside chanyeol
"I'm not going anywhere, I'm just getting you some new clothes,

wait a little bit alright?" Kyungsoo says softly while wiping the tears on his cheeks
"No, I'm scared, don't leave me" the tears on his palm doesn't stop
"Hey, look at me!" Kyungsoo holds both of his face
Kyungsoo breath hitches when their eyes meet
"I'm not gonna leave you,

I will stay by your side, but you need to change so you can sleep more comfortably, okay?"
Chanyeol grabs his hands when he tries to move
"Hey, trust me. Just wait a minute. I won't be long"
He caresses chanyeol's hair. Chanyeol nods and lets him. When kyungsoo comes back with

new clothes, chanyeol already passed out on the bed with loud snores. Only then kyungsoo feels like he can finally breathe "what the fuck just happened?" he says
He undresses chanyeol and helps him changes into the new clothes. He can't help but notice his well built body along

the process. He gulps and shakes his head "what am I thinking?" He slaps himself. He looks at chanyeol, there's still tears on his face so he reaches out to wipe them all "Just what are you struggling for?" Kyungsoo whispers.

He takes the phone the bartender gave him, scoffs at the unlocked phone, he accidentally opens unread messages

“so he is having a hard time" kyungsoo looks at sleeping chanyeol, contemplating for a minute before he replies

He knows chanyeol will probably mad at him for making him taking a day off but he's only doing him a favor. All these events making him tired, he yawns, looking at the clock, it reads 3.03 am . He groans, another sleepless night for kyungsoo

Chanyeol wakes up with a headache, he couldn't move his limbs for a while. He looks at the clock "11:00 am" he widens his eyes and sits up abruptly
"Fuck" he groans
He massages his throbbing head
"Fuck I need to work"
"No you're not" kyungsoo comes in

Handing some pills and a glass of water
"Hungover pills, you're drunk last night, if you don't remember"
Chanyeol mutters a slow thanks
"Why didn't you wake me up? I'm late for work"
"About that, I may tell your friend that you'll take a day off today"

"what?!" Chanyeol shouts making kyungsoo startles
"What am I supposed to do when you're so drunk last night? Your friend offers to cover up so I said yes"
"You don't have the right to meddle with my life ! " Chanyeol half shouts
Kyungsoo can't believe chanyeol's angry at him

after he sacrificed his sleep just to deal with his drunk ass. He rolls his eyes
"Whatever chanyeol. Go take a shower, you reeks alcohol. Lunch is ready" and kyungsoo left immediately

Chanyeol groans and punches the pillow. He takes a deep breath, trying to remember what

happened last night. Slowly, the series of last night's event come crawling into his memory. Starting from him drinking, being dragged into the car, pushed onto the bed, he remembers crying, he remembers holding on a person's hand (that must be kyungsoo) so tight, he remembers

begging kyungsoo to not leave him, he remembers kyungsoo assuring him that he will stays by his side, he remembers everything "fuck !" he curses

Chanyeol goes out from the bedroom all fresh after shower, he looks at kyungsoo who is preparing lunch on the kitchen.

Suddenly feeling wary that kyungsoo has seen his worst state last night, and feeling guilty for shouting at him this morning. He clears his throat

Kyungsoo looks at him expressionless. He looks at the table full of foods
"You cook all of these?" Chanyeol's amazed at the variety of food served. But kyungsoo doesn't answer him. He frowns. Kyungsoo keeps ignoring chanyeol but still serves the food to him

That just doubled the guiltiness chanyeol feels
"Look, I'm sorry for shouting at you this morning"
Kyungsoo noticeably freezes at this
"I was just having a hungover, my head hurts and I'm not in the right mind. Please don't ignore me"
Kyungsoo stutters as he remember how

vulnerable chanyeol last night asking kyungsoo not to leave him. That's totally make him soft
"It's okay, I shouldn't do that without your permission, I know how much you love your works"
Chanyeol snorts. This is the first time kyungsoo ever sees this reaction of his.

"I don't love my works that much. I just feels obligated to do it"
Kyungsoo just nods in understanding 'that explains the stress' he thoughts
"Uhm" Chanyeol bites his lips, unsure of what to say
"I'm not going to tell anyone about last night"
Chanyeol looks at him like he

wants to say something but he doesn't. He takes a deep breath before saying "I'm sorry you have to witness me at my worst, especially on the first day after we got married. I hope I don't scare you" he jokes at the end
"Might as well learned everything about you, since you're my

husband now. It's okay, everyone has a dark side" kyungsoo says
"I don't know how to do this"
"Do what?"
"This marriage thing, I don't know what to do, I never even dated before"
"me too tbh, but it's okay, let's just take things slowly"

Chanyeol just nods

"Thank you.. for.. last..night" he mutters slowly.

Suddenly feeling insecure that kyungsoo has seen him like that. he startles when a hand touches his
He looks at kyungsoo who stares at him in return.

This is the first time he looks at kyungsoo properly. He never knew kyungsoo has a beautiful eyes. He looks at the hands on his and looks back at kyungsoo. He feels kyungsoo squeezes his hand, his heart beats rapidly, his breath hitches .

"I'm not going anywhere"

Chanyeol chokes on air, kyungsoo retreats his hand to gives him the tea, he pretends to not missing the warmth on his hand. He drinks the tea and clears his throat
"I'm sorry if I'm too straightforward"
"Uhm . No it's okay. I just don't understand what you mean"
"Last night--"

"Please, I don't need your pity" chanyeol cuts him off
" I-i d-dont w-want people to see me i-in that state because t-they will start pitying me. That makes me m-more p-pathetic. I-i hate that" he trembles as he said those words
He heard kyungsoo sighs before reaching out to

firmly hold his trembling hands. His heart feels warm at the way kyungsoo's thumb caresses his hand. So he lets his tears out. He feels so ashamed but kyungsoo keeps caressing his hand unexpectedly soothes him.

"you're not pathetic chanyeol, you're you. You're my husband. I said I'm not going anywhere because I won't. I'm here now, living together with you, it's only fair if you share you worries with me and I share mine. I may not know you enough but -- I already said I want this

marriage to work, whatever that means" he interwined their fingers
"Why are you so good to me when I treated you badly?"
"You never treated me badly tho, you're just out of this world"
"What do you mean out of this world?"
"I mean that you're always on your own world, should I

say ignorance?"
"Hey I'm not !"
"You forgot my name the day after we married"
"That was one time"
"You didn't recognize me last night, calling me a cute guy and thinking I want to have sex with you"
Chanyeol widens his eyes "What?!"
Kyungsoo laughs heartily. Chanyeol never

sees anyone laughs so beautifully
"You looks beautiful when you laugh" he blurts out
"Uhm thanks?"
"You have a beautiful eyes too"
"Uhm okay this is kinda weird"
"how is this weird?"
"Why are you throwing compliments so suddenly"
"You don't like compliments?"

"Uhm it's just makes me uncomfortable"
"Well, I like to be complimented"
Kyungsoo snorts "of course you are"
"Please compliment me then"
"What?"
"it's only fair ! I complimented you twice !"
"It's not like I asked you to compliment me"
"Please" chanyeol pouts.

Oh God, never did kyungsoo ever imagine seeing this many sides of chanyeol
"Why do you even like compliments so much, isn't it embarrassing?"
"Because it makes me feel better. I always have insecurities, so compliments make me feel better" chanyeol explains genuinely before

looking at kyungsoo expectantly. Kyungsoo groans
"Uh okay, you looks handsome?"
"Be honest!" Chanyeol pouts even more
"stop pouting, you're not a child" chanyeol grins but still looks at him expectantly
"I can't get any way out of this right?"
"Nope"
Kyungsoo rolls his eyes

"You are handsome"
"And?"
Kyungsoo raises his eyebrows
"I complimented you twice!" Chanyeol defends
"Uhm you have a nice body" kyungsoo goes red instantly as he saying this making chanyeol chuckles
"So last night was real, you are the cute guy who wants to have sex with me"

Kyungsoo splutters
"Too bad I don't remember how you changed my clothes. You probably thought of some dirty stuffs of me"
"I'M NOT" kyungsoo blushes furiously
"Are you sure?"
"YAHHH!!" Kyungsoo slaps chanyeol's face lightly
Chanyeol laughs out loud

"Thank you kyungsoo, I appreciate everything"
Kyungsoo smiles
"This is delicious btw, you can open a restaurant and I'll be your most loyal customer"
Kyungsoo scoffs
"You just want me to cook for you"
"Well, that too" chanyeol chuckles
"Do you have any plans for today?"

"Hmm I'm thinking of meeting my friend today"
"Cancel that"
"Uhm why?"
"Since you made me take a day off, be responsible"
"Uh okay, what do you want me to do?"
"Let's go on a date" kyungsoo coughs
"you said you wanna make this works, so let's date then"

"Uh you don't have to"
"I want to, kyungsoo. I want to make things work too. I don't know if I'm saying this too early but I think I'm starting to like you" chanyeol grins
Kyungsoo blushes when chanyeol touches his hand
"what do you wanna do then ?"
"Let's go out"

"To where?"
"Anywhere, as long as we're together"
"Ugh, stop being someone who's not you" chanyeol laughs
"Thank you for saying that. I thought I'm gonna die from the cheesiness"
"you don't have to be perfect chanyeol. We both have flaws and that's okay.

Let's be real to each other, okay?" Chanyeol smiles then nods
"But are we still going on a date ?"
"Of course, go change into a comfortable clothes, then we'll go out"

Kyungsoo cancels his initial plan to meet his bestfriend

Suddenly kyungsoo feels a hot breath fanning his ear before startled by a deep voice
"Who's baekhyun? Why is he calling you sweetheart with a heart emoji? Why are you smiling?"
"Woah hold with those questions, officer"
"Should I be jealous?"
"Baekhyun is my bestfriend who I'm

supposed to meet today. I just cancelled our plan"
"And why is he calling you sweetheart then?"
"It's just his personality. Very bubbly and bright, so it's normal for him to do that"
"Hmm interesting. I want to meet him someday"
Kyungsoo chuckles

"Of course, I'll take you to meet him someday. But I warn you, he has an unfiltered mouth"
Chanyeol laughs
"Can't wait. Let's go" chanyeol extends his hand for kyungsoo to take it and they go out holding hands

So, first date it is

"Do you like it?"
"Yes this is delicious" chanyeol smiles at kyungsoo who eats his food cutely like a kid
"It's actually nice to be out sometimes"
"Yeah, it seems like you've been missing a lot"
"Yeah I think so too, my mind is always occupied by works,
I don't remember

the last time I went out"
"I'm glad we did today then?" Chanyeol nods
"So tell me about yourself"
It's their first proper introduction to each other. Kyungsoo tells chanyeol everything about him, from his favorite food to his favorite movie and chanyeol in turns, also do the

same. All the subtle glances and shy smiles really make everything goes smoothly. Chanyeol is happy like his frustrations the other night just vanishes as kyungsoo smiles at him prettily.

Kyungsoo on the other hand, feeling thankful that chanyeol finally open up to him, act freely around him and just be himself
It's not that he mind the perfect persona chanyeol tend to show the world, but seeing different sides of chanyeol makes him feel special like chanyeol

only show this side to him, that chanyeol trust him. Suddenly he remembers chanyeol's word earlier "..I think I'm starting to like you" he giggles at the thought, it's tugs on his heartstrings
"Why are you giggling?"
"nothing"
"Kyungsoo I swear to God if you're making fun at

me I--"
"I'm not making fun of you!"
"Then why are you giggling !"
"You dont have to know that!"
"Kyungsoooooooo" chanyeol whines
"Nope, not gonna tell you"

Their conversation is stopped by messages come to chanyeol's phone

Chanyeol frowns, his heartbeat increases, he breathes noisily, trembling at the thought of his father. Kyungsoo notices
"Why are you trembling? Who's that from?"
Kyungsoo eyes chanyeol's phone. Chanyeol somehow freezes at his spot, he doesn't even answer kyungsoo

"Chanyeol breathe" kyungsoo holds his trembling hand and starts caressing it using his thumb. That calms chanyeol down.
"It's my mom"
"Is it bad ?"
Chanyeol shakes his head
"It's okay, I'm here" kyungsoo pats his hand

Chanyeol finally smiles. He choose a picture of kyungsoo he took earlier and sends to his mom. He looks at kyungsoo before giggling
"What?" Kyungsoo asks
"Nothing, my mom invites us for dinner"
"What ?!"
"Don't worry, my mom loves you"
"I already met your mom, chanyeol"

"Then, no problem"
"Uhm what should I wear?"
"Just wear whatever, you'll look cute anyway"
"Chanyeol, I'm serious"
"Hmm just casual outfit would do"
"Uhm okay"

At the dinner, kyungsoo keeps eating to fend off nervousness. Chanyeol and his mom shares an amused look "Kyungsoo honey, youre eating so well"
kyungsoo freezes and smiles politely
"These food are so delicious, I'm hungry just by the smell of it"

"Didn't you eat a whole lot earlier?" Chanyeol's amused when kyungsoo glares at him
"I'm glad you like it, you really look a lot like your mother" kyungsoo smiles
"She must be very pretty" chanyeol buts in

"She is, and kind-hearted too. Thank you for agreeing to this marriage" Mrs Park smiles

Kyungsoo feeling warmth tingling all over his body and chanyeol squeezes his hand under the table. He smiles shyly

"Where's Mr Park?"
"He's usually work until late night, so he's not gonna be home until after 11"
Kyungsoo just nods
"So how are you feeling after the wedding? Did chanyeol causes you lot of trouble?"
Chanyeol whines
"Mom, why do you asking him only, how do you know it's

not the other way around?"
"Because I know you my son"
Kyungsoo chuckles
"honestly we're a bit shaky and awkward initially, but we are working on it, Mrs Park"
"Oh come on kyungsoo, call me mom"
"Uh okay, sorry Mom"
"I'm glad. Thank you for accepting chanyeol, he can be so

hard to handle but he's a cute kid, he loves attention and actually fragile"
"Mom ! You're making me look bad"
Kyungsoo laughs "It's okay, nobody's perfect, flaws are natural for human being, we just need to deal and understand it"
chanyeol stares at him surprised

"I know your mother raised you well, I'm glad we made promise to marry you two off"
"Thank you, I miss my mother a lot, but seeing you makes me feel better"
"But fair warning, chanyeol can be a lot. He's easily get stressed but a dose of affection will calm him"
"Point taken"

"yup, since you're stuck with me , you need to give me lots and lots of affection"
Kyungsoo just blushes deeply when the mom's chuckles
"Uh okay, I'll try?"
"Now, start with feeding me" chanyeol open his mouth widely while eyeing the food
Kyungsoo is dumbfounded

"Come on, aaaa" he opens it widely
"Your hand is functioning just fine chanyeol"
"Yeah but I want you to feed me"
Kyungsoo looks at mom
"I told you"
"But isn't this a bit exaggerating? Is he always like this?"
Mom laughs
"he's not usually that open with this side of him,

but I guess he may be really comfortable to show it to you then?"
"Stop talking like I'm not here. And no I'm not usually like that. I'm just messing with you" chanyeol smirks
"Thank God, I can't imagine you behaving like this all the time" Kyungsoo rolls his eyes

Chanyeol and mom both laugh happily
"But I still can feed you though, open your mouth" Kyungsoo add, Chanyeol smiles and accepts happily

"Why are you taking picture of me, stop it"
"Don't worry Soo, this is for my personal collection"
"Okay that sounds really creepy"
"I don't have many pictures of you in phone, I'm going to work tomorrow, might as well see your picture when I'm getting stress"

"Then what? Jerk off to it?"
"That's not a bad idea actually"
"Eughhh youre disgusting"
"Hey that makes me realize something" chanyeol looks at kyungsoo suggestively
"What are you thinking Park?"

"What are you thinking Park?"
"Aren't we supposed to have sex to be officially married?"

Blood rushes to kyungsoo's face at the sudden question
"There's no laws stating that having sex is the indicator of official marriage"
"So you don't want to have sex with me?"

That makes kyungsoo conflicted
"Uhh i-its n-not t-that---"
Chanyeol burst out laughing at him
"It's alright Soo, I'm just teasing you"
Kyungsoo bites his lips. It's not that having sex is illegal, they're married anyway, it's natural if they do it. But kyungsoo is just awkward

and don't know how to, what to, uhmm do?
Chanyeol notices the sudden change of mood, he facepalms himself for making things awkward between them
"Uhm, I have to go to bed early since I'll be working early tomorrow morning, wanna join me ?"
Damn that sounds like a proposition.

Chanyeol seriously didn't mean it to come out like that. Kyungsoo goes full red at the suggestion, he doesn't know whether chanyeol is implying something or just literally want to sleep. He's afraid of misreading the signal only to embarrassed himself

"Uhh I mean, do you often sleep early?" Chanyeol quickly says
Kyungsoo releases the breath he holds "i can't sleep this early actually. My body clock is set on late night to sleep"
"Ah I see, I'll sleep first then?"
"Yeah okay"

Soon after, kyungsoo enters the room seeing chanyeol is sleeping peacefully. He smiles and goes back on watching TV

Chanyeol's sleep is interrupted by series of pings on his phone. He knows it from his father because he set a special ringtone for his father. He frowns reading the messages

There comes his anxiety. Sometimes he really wants to slap himself because of how much his father's words always affect him in so many ways. It's just a simple words but it cuts down right through his gut. Words like "Don't disappoint me" or "Don't do anything I won't approved"

really sends signals to his brain and activates his anxiety. Times like this is where he'll start feeling down, worthless, not enough and everything related to it. Usually, if this happened, there are two solutions : sleep or alcohol

Since he tries to sleep but fail miserably, he wakes up straight to find alcohol in the fridge. Curse his luck, there is none in the fridge, he forgot to restore his collection. So he just gulps a glass of water and slams the fridge's door

Kyungsoo is startled by the sound and immediately look to the source of the sound. He is surprised seeing chanyeol walks out from the kitchen to their bedroom and once again slams the door hard.

"Isn't he sleeping 5 mins ago?" He confused.

So another episode of chanyeol having his moment of mental breakdown happens. Without the help of alcohol, he can't deny all the thought so coming into his mind. He keeps blaming on himself of not being enough for his father, until he cries.

Kyungsoo witnesses everything. Starting from the troubled face chanyeol is making to the tears escaping his eyes. His heart hurts seeing chanyeol like this
"Is this a regular thing?" He thoughts. If it is, then chanyeol has been through a lot. He lets him cries for a few minutes

Before crouching down beside chanyeol and starts to envelope him in a side hug and patting his back in a soothing manner. Chanyeol doesn't react. He keeps crying
"It's okay to cry, I'm here, I'm right here" he whispers slowly
Chanyeol hiccups and looks at kyungsoo

His eyes are red and full of tears. He looks so vulnerable like this. Kyungsoo caresses his wet cheeks. Chanyeol leans into it. Kyungsoo moves closer and kiss his forehead making chanyeol instantly close his eyes, accepting the affections.

"You will be fine, you have me now, let's do this together" kyungsoo reassures. When he sees hesitation in chanyeol's eyes, kyungsoo leans in to kiss him chastely
"Share your worries with me, I'll help you forget" kyungsoo kiss him again, this time slowly and lingers

When chanyeol parts his lips, kyungsoo slides his toungue in and deepen the kiss. He pulls away when he feels chanyeol is not reacting. He pulls chanyeol's hands and encircle around his neck. They stare at each other "is this okay?" Kyungsoo whispers just above chanyeol's lips

He could see chanyeol gulps and breath becomes uneven. He stares at kyungsoo's lips before looking at kyungsoo eyes again. His pupils are dilated. Chanyeol touches and caresses kyungsoo's lips.

"Chanyeol" kyungsoo whispers, breath hot in each other's air

Kyungsoo waits patiently until chanyeol finally leans in and kiss his upper lip. Kyungsoo licks the other lips before they start getting languid, deepening every kisses like there's no tomorrow.

Along the searing kiss, they manage to undress each other until they're both naked and no one pays attention on how they're on the bed now with chanyeol on top of kyungsoo, not breaking the kiss. Accompanied with whimpers and moans, kyungsoo makes chanyeol forget all his worries.

So there are three solutions to chanyeol problems :
Sleep, alcohol and kyungsoo.

Now, after everything chanyeol has been through, kyungsoo was and is definitely the best solution, the best thing that ever happens in his life.

THE END
