Chanyeol/Xiumin - Xiuyeol
The next morning in their dorm, Xiumin awoke feeling delightfully refreshed. He yawned, stretching his lithe limbs as far as they would go and he climbed out of bed. He took a shower in his bathroom, dressed and cleaned up his room so that it was spotless.
"I wonder what my dongsaengs are planning for me today." He muttered to himself as he walked over to his door; ready to start his day. He twisted the knob to open it and he came face to face with a large, blue wall blocking his view.
Xiumin gasped, his eyes wide with surprise and instinctively he took a step away from the door.
"Oh," Chanyeol rubbed the back of his neck sheepishly." Sorry about that Xiumin-hyung. I didn't mean to scare you." he said.
Xiumin smiled up at him. "No harm done Chanyeol." An awkward silence fell between the two teens which Xiumin felt was strange and a little worrying.
The tall teen rarely had a silent moment, except for when he was eating or sleeping. It was also something that Chanyeol's boyfriend, Kris often complained to them about.' Xiumin thought to himself.
Unable to help himself, Xiumin asked. "Is something wrong Chanyeol-ah? Did Kris kick you of his room again?"
"What?" Chanyeol repeated, a look of confusion crossed his face, then his eyes widened when it dawned on him, and he blushed.
"Oh." He mumbled, as he remembered the last time he had come running to Xiumin for help when Kris kicked had him out of his room for insulting his artwork.
Chanyeol could not help himself. He knew how much Kris loved to paint and self-proclaimed himself to be an 'artist' but his work resembled a child's drawing. Chanyeol couldn't resist telling him so when Kris asked for his opinion.
Granted, he could have do so more nicely.
The happy virus shook his head to rid himself of that memory." No, it's nothing like that hyung. I just wanted to eat breakfast with you in the cafeteria."
Xiumin frowned at his happy tone. While he was glad to see him, he noticed that there was something really off about Chanyeol, but he couldn't put his finger on what it was. He knew that younger boy was not a morning person; it was something he learned from their trainee days and Chanyeol wasn't a liar either. Xiumin brushed aside his concern. He would find out eventually.
"Right, okay." Xiumin replied, and Chanyeol beamed at him with two rows of perfectly shiny teeth. He threw his arm around the smaller boy's shoulder.
"I feel like it's been a really long time since we've done skinship, hyung." Chanyeol said, his shoulders drooped once they passed their members rooms and they came to a stop in front of the elevator.
"That's true," replied Xiumin. "It's been, what? Three months since the group started our separate promotions."
"Uh huh." Chanyeol head bobbed as he nodded ." It's also because of Luhan-hyung."
The elevator arrived and they stepped inside. -
There were ten floors in the building with each SM group having its own floor; there was also the cafeteria on the 2nd floor, the gym on the third floor, and the music, dance, and vocal practice rooms on the 4th floor.
Xiumin pressed the second floor button and the doors closed. Chanyeol released his old on Xiumin and leaned against the metal wall.
"Chanyeol, what did you mean when you said 'it's also because of Luhan?'" He wondered.
He sighed." I mean't that you spend most of your time with Luhan when we are promoting separately and when we all get to come together to promote as a group; you still spend all your time with Luhan. The members and I haven't spent a single moment with you hyung and its been two weeks! That's why we started this proposition in the first place." Chanyeol turned his face to the wall and continued." I'm a little jealous of how close you are with Luhan-hyung."
"Chanyeol," Xiumin said softly, he touched Chanyeol's shoulder and nudged him until he turned back around." Luhan is my best friend and yes we do spend a lot of time together, but that does not mean that you all can't come join me and Luhan." Chanyeol sighed again. Xiumin just didn't understand.
"You do not understand Xiumin-hyung. I do not want to spent time with you and Luhan-hyung! " He replied bluntly.
Xiumin eyes grew wide at his loudness and Chanyeol exhaled slowly."I'm sorry hyung. I just want to spend time with you alone. We feel like you ignore us when you spend all of your time with Luhan-hyung." He ended just as he elevator stopped and they stepped into the hall.
Xiumin stopped Chanyeol as he made to walk ahead. "Chanyeol, I'm sorry if I made you and the others feel that way. I want to spend time with all of you too. You're my brother and I love you. " Xiumin jumped when Chanyeol pulled him into a hug.
"Thanks hyung, I needed that and I love you too."
They separated from their hug. Xiumin smiled up at him. "Chanyeol, my door is open if you or the others need me."
"Thanks hyung," Chanyeol felt like a heavy weight had been lifted of his chest now that he told Xiumin how he felt. He only hoped it would be this easy for the others " Let's go eat. I'm hungry." He told him.
Xiumin laughed. 'That was more like Chanyeol.' he thought as they walked in the direction of the cafeteria.
"Alright." Xiumin replied back.
"Xiumin, Chanyeol." Luhan greeted, as he spotted them turning the corner.
The two teens stared at Luhan. He was wearing his sponsored black with green lining tracksuit. He had large, black earphones wrapped around his neck and a empty water bottle in his hand.
"Good morning, Luhan." Xiumin greeted, moving to approach the brown-haired boy, but Chanyeol grabbed his wrist.
"Wait, hyung."
Xiumin glanced backwards at Chanyeol.
"Why? What's wrong?" He asked, but Chanyeol didn't reply. His eyes stayed concentrated on Luhan.
"Good morning, Luhan-hyung, what are you doing up so early?" Chanyeol asked, trying to diffuse Luhan-hyung's anger.
"I went out for a run." He responded, never taking his eyes off of Chanyeol's arm." You are not usually up this early Chanyeol, though Xiumin is. Are you guys headed somewhere?" He tried to keep his jealousy out of his voice, but Chanyeol heard still it.
"We're heading to the cafeteria for breakfast."
"Oh. Is that all?" He asked, raising an eyebrow at Chanyeol's arm around Xiumin's wrist.
Chanyeol's eyes brows furrowed as he tried to figure out what Luhan meant, and his mouth fell open when caught the meaning. Xiumin stared between at the two other teens." Is that all you guys are doing?"
'What else could there be?' Xiumin wondered again.
"Yeah. It's not how you think." Chanyeol said, hurriedly. Xiumin tilted his head to the side. "What would Luhan think?"
Chanyeol sputtered at his mistake, Luhan tried to fix it. "It was nothing, Baozi. I would think nothing." Luhan glared at Chanyeol for the slip up.
"I smell breakfast, let's hurry hyung." Chanyeol said, wanting to escape Luhan's glare and he pulled Xiumin with him down the hall while Luhan watched on.
"Alright, bye Luhan." Xiumin yelled out behind him. As they walked away from him, Chanyeol shivered as he felt a chill suddenly go down his spine.
He turned to look behind him and saw Luhan smiling, thought it didn't quite reach his eyes and then he stepped inside the elevator.
Chanyeol knew from then on that Luhan would get back at him for making that proposition.
Luhan's Pov
Luhan entered the elevator once it arrived and he continued to grip his bottle tightly. He was angry, scratch that, he was furious. Just because he agreed to go along with his band member's ridiculous proposition did not mean that the other members could make a show over hanging all over his Baozi.
Luhan smirked. He would just have to show his members that no one came in between him and his Baozi.
Third Person Pov
Once they arrived at the kitchen they saw that they were the only ones there and grinned at all the food available to them. They grabbed their plate and filled it with food then took a seat at the table." Thanks hyung."
"For what? " asked Xiumin, as he took a bite of his food.
"For spending time with me, I really missed this." He admitted, ducking his head feeling in embarrassment.
He looked up when he heard Xiumin laughing and saw him smiling at him." Anytime Chanyeol-ah."
Chanyeol's Pov
After breakfast, Chanyeol returned to his room with a bounce in his step. He felt happy that he was able to spend time with his hyung without Luhan's constant presence. It was not that he disliked Luhan; he would like to spend time with Xiumin alone.
Chanyeol opened the door to Kris' room that he used to share with Chen. It was small, despite EXO being one of SM top selling groups; the company CEO felt it was right to keep them humble.
Chanyeol usually found Kris lying on his bed, reading a book or listening to music since he usually did not eat breakfast.
"Kris?" Chanyeol called and Kris looked up at the sound of his name and smiled. Like he expected, Kris was sitting up against the headboard of his bed and a book was in his hands.
Chanyeol crawled on top of his bed and laid his head on Kris' lap. "Hey, where were you earlier?" Kris asked him, he used his hand that was not holding the book to pet Chanyeol's hair and Chanyeol closed his eyes at the gesture.
"I went to have breakfast with Xiumin. Why?" He asked, cracking his eyes open to look at him." Luhan stopped by saying he had something important to tell me about you."
Chanyeol sprung up off the bed and Kris dropped his book from his action. "What's the matter with you?"
Chanyeol ignored his question and asked instead." W-What did Luhan want to talk to you about?" Kris eyebrows furrowed at Chanyeol's weird behavior."
"Why are you acting so weird?"
"Kris. You cannot believe anything that Luhan tells you. He's the devil in disguise under that angel facade."
"What?" Kris replied, incrediously. 'I wonder if Chanyeol ate something he shouldn't have at breakfast. I will have to ask Xiumin later on.' He thought, observing his boyfriend for signs of insanity.
"I am serious. Luhan is a bigger prankster than me, Chen and Baekhyun put together."
Chanyeol explained and Kris frowned.
'When the beagle line; Chen, Baekhyun and Chanyeol got together, the others members knew to be scared and to avoid whatever catastrophe they would undoubtedly bring to them. ' Could Luhan be scarier than the three of them?' Kris wondered,suppressing a shiver at the thought.
"I get it." Kris replied and it seemed to quell Chanyeol's fear a bit. The happy virus relaxed and he kissed Kris' cheek.
"Thanks, now what did Luhan-hyung tell you?"
"Do you remember my drawing sketchbook that Mr. K gave me for my birthday?" Chanyeol's body stiffened as fear appeared in his eyes.
'Oh no! Please don't tell me that Luhan squealed on me.' He thought as Kris continued." Well, it disappeared from my room and Luhan told me that he saw you throw my sketchbook into the fireplace."
Kris stood up slowly from the bed; his eyes were narrowed into slits and he leaned over Chanyeol form." Did you throw my book away?"
"I-I can explain!" Chanyeol shouted, holding out his arms to push the slender male away. Kris fell back onto the carpet. Chanyeol jumped and ran from Kris' room without looking back. He could hear Kris' feet thumping the floor behind him.
"I'm sorry!" Chanyeol shouted to Kris, but his apology fell flat. As he ran past the members room, he spotted Luhan's door cracked open and saw his sadistic smirk. Chanyeol felt a cold shiver run down his spine and he picked up his speed.
"Take that, Park Chanyeol." Luhan muttered, slowly closing his door.
Third person pov
It took a promise of a new art set and agreement to never insult his future work for Kris to forgive him.
'I need to remind myself to never get on Luhan's bad side ever again.' Chanyeol thought as he cuddled with his boyfriend on the couch.
Chanyeol forgot his reminder an hour later.
Luhan left his room to shower and came to find his shampoo replaced with green dye. His black hair was now a dark green and made him resemble an elf.
Chanyeol, Lay, Xiumin, Tao, Baekhyun, Suho, Chen, Sehun, Kris, D.O, and Kai relaxed in their living room on various furniture when Luhan walked into their line of view. His face was a bright red and with his new hair, the members were unable to hold their laughter.
Kris and Xiumin's laughter were among the loudest and Chanyeol could feel his smile growing on his face. 'Revenge sure is sweet. 'He thought, watching Luhan storm out of the room.
