“SUPRISE! Happy Birthday [Y/N]!”
Everyone cheered, as you walked into the restaurant in utter shock, everyone but Baekhyun... He was sitting at the table looking at his phone with earphones in.
At 11, you two became best friends. Even for the months, he was training to debut in exo you had remained close and became friends with all the members. For this reason, you still spent a lot of time now you weren’t. With every passing day, you seemed to become less and less significant in his life.
“[Y/n], blow out the candles!” Chanyeol and Jongdae rushed towards you with a cake enthusiastically.
“Be careful, Chanyeol,” Jongdae whined as Chanyeol almost dropped his side. You blew out the candles and walked towards the table. Junmyeon pulled out a chair for you, a chair next to Baekhyun. You could see him shift away slightly in your peripheral.
The other boys were so nice, they all treated you like Baekhyun did all those years ago. Now, he made you feel so small, you never said anything because you liked him. You didn’t want to, but after he became distant, you realised how much you did. You almost hated yourself as much as you presumed he hated you.
It was midnight, the surprise party was over and you were angry. You had to say Baekhyun had done an impeccable job of ignoring you, you were mad. He didn't even get you a present this year. You were furious and wouldn't take it anymore. Baekhyun said he was leaving early to Xiumin next to him and just left. You took off after him and followed into the night.
“Baekhyun!” his steps faltered then he walked faster to his car. “BYUN BEAKHYUN!!” you ran up behind him and kicked the back of his knee, causing him to fall.
“What the hell was that for?!” he huffed angrily, wiping wet gravel of his hands. You walked in front of him, he looked up at you through his fringe. “Haven’t I made it clear? I don’t want anything to do with you anymore? Or are you too stupid to realise?” without a second of thought you slapped him and the sound echoed down the street.
“I can’t believe after everything you've done to me- I like you.” His eyes widened in shock.
“I like you Baekhyun - I've liked you for years. No matter how much, I want to I can’t stop.” tears fell from your eyes. He wanted to hug you and apologise but he couldn’t. He was ashamed of what he had done to you. In fear of getting rejected by someone, he was sure would never love him back, he doomed himself. That’s when he realised he didn’t deserve you and said,
“You really must be stupid.” and drove off...
It had been a few weeks since your birthday. Fortunately, you hadn’t seen Baekhyun or heard of him from any of the other members of exo. Things seemed to get a bit awkward, so instead of talking to them, you started talking to some old school friends more. When Baekhyun debuted, he didn’t seem to want to spend the time he had between schedules with you so you made other friends at school. You seemed to get along with boys better so you made another male best friend, Jaehyun. And he started to become your best friend again.
“[Y/n]!” You turned around to the tall brown-haired boy walking and waving at you.
“Thanks for taking me to the cinema, Jaehyun.
“No problemo.” he chuckled giving you a bright smile. You remembered when you had a little crush him back in high school but now you knew better than to fall in love with your best friend.
“Shoot! I think I left my phone in the toilet, wait here.” Jaehyun groaned as he quickly ran off. You gave him an annoyed stare then sat on a bench, smiling to yourself. You were almost happy again.
After a few minutes, you heard a loud laugh and turned in excitement knowing it was Jaehyun’s. All excitement drained, along with the colour in your face, as your eyes met with the black-haired shorter man standing next to him. “[Y/n] look who I found!”.
“It’s Baekhyun, haha.” saying his name hurt your heart a little.
“I haven’t seen him in ages! You guys used to be so close.” he looked so delighted to see Baekhyun, the opposite to what you felt. “Baekhyun I hope you didn’t forget about us after debuting?”
“Actually, I still talk to [Y/n].” If ignoring you for years was talking to you, then he wasn’t telling the biggest lie you’d ever heard.
“Really?! [Y/n], you didn’t tell me you were still friends with him. We should all meet up sometime!!”
“Yeah,” I said with fake enthusiasm
“I was actually about to call you, [Y/n].” he smiled at you as if he hadn’t rejected your feelings a few weeks ago. “Jaehyun would it be okay if I took [Y/n] for a bit? We need to discuss something really important.”
“Sure, but you better bring her back,” Jaehyun said warningly then burst out laughing. Baekhyun garbed your forearm and dragged you behind a few trees.
“What are you doing with that guy?” I said angrily as if he had the right to be.
“Why do you care? Do you think after all the pain you caused me you have the right to talk to me?” You saw him shrink a little, remembering what he had done.
“We’re friends. I don’t get why it concerns you- we aren’t, we have been for over 5 years.” He let out a deep sigh.
“Didn’t you have a crush on him? He annoys me, don’t talk to him anymore.” you scoffed in disbelief. He was wasting your time and he didn’t deserve to be talking to you. You couldn’t believe you had made friends with someone like him. You turned around to walk off but stopped when he said,
Guilt seemed to be the only emotion on his face. For a split second, you wanted to forgive him.
“Is that all you have to say?” you continued walking away, promising yourself not to look back this time. He yanked your arm turning you round to face him. He cupped your face and pulled you into a kiss, it was full of desperation. After you recovered from the shock, you hated yourself for it but, you kissed him back. He snaked a hand down to your waist pulling you closer to him. He pulled away.
“I’m sorry. I’m really the one that’s stupid. I only treated you like that to get over you, but it didn't even work. I assumed you would never like me back. I truly love you but I don’t deserve you. I was so horrible to you, I don’t think I could ever forgive myself. I wouldn’t expect you to either.”
“B-baekhyun...” you stuttered, trying not to cry like he was now. “I-”
“I’m too late your with Jaehyun and-”
“Stop- I’m not going out with him.” you interjected bursting into a fit of laughter.
“But you had a huge crush on him,” he looked at you quizzically.
“Yes, I HAD a crush on him.” he looked a lot happier.
“Do you still have a crush on me?” the dark-haired boy playfully asked as he frantically searched your eyes for an answer.
“Yes.” your cheeks grew warm.
“Then will you- will you go out with me [Y/n]?”
“Yes!” He grinned and you could see him shake with excitement.
“So, you’ve forgiven me?”
“If you treat me right- I might consider it.” you flashed him a cheeky grin.
“Oh, how I will,” he said with a peak. Both of you started walking back to Jaehyun, and he whispered distastefully, “Hey, now you're with me stop hanging out with that guy.”
“Are you seriously jealous?
“Absolutely, positively not! Who do you think I am?!?!” he flailed his arms around in denial. You looked at him in astonishment,
