Byun Baekhyun.

Who are you exactly? Just maybe... maybe you are something more than an annoying brat, maybe you hold something more than being a runaway groom.

Chanyeol was unable to form the right description nor the right identity that Baekhyun holds. He seemed more than just a guy who was afraid of a force commitment, maybe there's something more than what he's afraid of.

No limitations. No exceptions. He wanted to know Byun Baekhyun more. And maybe once he gets to know the midget, he'll try and understand him more and just MAYBE a connection might build up between them.

His thoughts had setted his eyes on Baekhyun who was laughing freely as he talked with Jeonghan. For what Chanyeol faintly heard, they were talking about funny accidents that happened to the customers of the cafe.

"Like there was this guy who took someone else's coffee and he came back the next day and was complaining because he was allergic to Americano." Jeonghan's story had again made Baekhyun laugh. It maybe not that funny but the blonde was seemingly enjoying it.

His eyes were crinkled and his nose was scrunched up and a big smile tugged at his small lips. It was indeed a beautiful scenery. Chanyeol adored Baekhyun's small gestures, like how he leaned back just to laugh even more. He looked like an art, an art that needs to be preserved because there's no like other.

"Don't be too obvious." Ruining the moment, Joshua tapped his shoulder for him to take his eyes off the midget. Just like a reflex, his smile was gone and was replaced by a frown. He ignored the American boy and continued staring at the beautiful creature. "You know... i really don't know why you hate me." Joshua chuckled, "This is just our first meeting and you already hate me."

Joshua was actually sad with the bad interaction that he is sharing with Chanyeol. Ever since Jeongan met Chanyeol, the long haired guy was going on and on about him, how he sees the giant as a brother and that's why Joshua also wanted to have a good relationship with him.

"I just don't like you. Simple as that." Chanyeol grunted, trying his best to ignore the latter's presence. "But why? Did i do something wrong?" The American boy was all in questions and wonders. "You're too nice and kind and i fucking hate it." The giant grumbled, finally admitting the reason behind his hatred towards Joshua.

Joshua on the other hand couldn't help but crack a smile as he heard Chanyeol's words. It was rather ironic, hating someone for being too kind and nice.

"Chanyeol... Joshua... Come on. Breafast is ready." The two boys were called out by Jeonghan who was preparing 4 cups of coffee and 4 slices of chocolate cake. They both obliged and moved to the table where Baekhyun and Jeonghan were seated.

Joshua sat beside Jeonghan which left Chanyeol to sit beside Baekhyun, having no choice. They ate in silence, savouring the sweetness of the chocolate cake and how it blends perfectly with the coffee.

"So... Joshua and Jeonghan, if you don't mind me asking, how did the two of you meet?" The midget broke the silence, catching the attention of Chanyeol who suddenly blush just by looking at him yet the giant only shook his head to ease the heat on his cheeks.

"Before, i used to be the one who's behind the counter to serve the customers and Jeonghan here comes here on daily basis. And there until one day, we got to talk to each other, got to know each other and be together." Joshua chuckled, pulling his boyfriend closer to him.

Baekhyun looked at the couple adoringly, a faint feeling of jealousy commenced in his chest, unknowingly.

"And what about you? How did the two of you meet?" Jeonghan questioned this time, smiling from ear-to-ear. There was no reply from the two boys, their eyes pointing at whose going to tell the couple.

Baekhyun was uncertain if he's going to tell the truth that he ran away from his own wedding, he's afraid that Joshua and Jeonghan will then think of him differently.

As Chanyeol on the other hand was carrying a burden as Jeonghan and Joshua was eyeing him, asking for him to tell them while he stole a glance of Baekhyun who was shifting in his seat.

"Is my question... uncomfortable? If that so, you don't need to answer it." Jeonghan spoke up, careful with every word that's slipping out from his lips.

"A-aah no. We met when Chanyeol helped me run away from my w-wedding." He let the truth to be revealed. He didn't want to cover it up with a lie then with another lie until everything will just be a lie.

"R-run away from your w-wedding?" Both boys were startled with the information Baekhyun had handed out. They were not expecting such incident of Chanyeol and Baekhyun's first meeting.

Baekhyun awkwardly chuckled, scratching the nape of his neck, "Y-yes. It was an arranged marriage for business." And in every word, his voice lowers down until you could only hear his breathing.

"Don't worry Baekhyun. You don't need to be wary around us. We don't know the whole story so we won't judge you and think of you differently all of a sudden." Joshua assured the runaway groom, as Jeonghan agreed as well. "Thank you. I was really... worried." Baekhyun admitted, slyly.

"You don't ne-" Jeonghan was about to speak up when someone's phone started ringing. All of their attention went to Chanyeol who hurriedly pulled out his phone from his back pocket.

He excused himself from the table and walked outside to get some privacy. When he looked at the screen to check the caller id, his eyebrows furrowed, completely confused at the caller's motive.
