Captivating - Baekhyun Fluff
well I sure am emotional after writing this. Have I mentioned how much I love exo? I REALLY love exo sO MUCH. This is well overdue argh sorry x so yeah, fluff about the king of singing, leave me some requests.
Your boyfriend had told you nothing about the drama he was starring in, Scarlet Heart. So, before the drama started, you watched every teaser and researched as much as you could. He was a prince, the 10th prince Wang Eun. A playful boy, just like the man you knew yourself. The role was made for Baekhyun. Every time you’d beg him to tell you more, he’d keep his lips tightly pursed shut, a glimmer in his eyes.
It was the night of episode sixteen, and you knew this episode was going to be an eventful one judging from the previous installation. You and Baekhyun snuggled down on the sofa, as usual, you as eager as ever and him as smug as ever.
“You know, my acting in this episode is phenomenal.” He giggled, looking down at you with his eyebrow raised.
You rolled your eyes, turning back to the television, “You say that every time an episode begins. I’m becoming quite immune to it.”
Baekhyun pushed you up so he could look at you, “You think my acting is bad now!?” He whined.
Chuckling, you cuddled back up to him, “Of course not. You are the best actor in the world, darling.”
“Too right.” He mumbled, and you could just tell he had that cute pout on his face.
Straight away, your boyfriend was on your screen. Your eyes began to fill with tears as Wang Eun’s did in the programme. Were you really going to cry in the first minute? Imagining the satisfaction that would give him, you subtly wiped away the tears.
“Isn’t that sad? His wife has run away to save him.” Baekhyun said, nudging you lightly.
“Mm.” You hummed, not wanting him to hear you get slightly choked up.
We continued watching, your eyes completely enchanted by the man you loved on the television.
“I can’t hide behind my wife in shame like this. What can I do? I am her awesome person now. I am all she has.”
A small sob left your mouth, no tears, just a sound meaning that you was fully entranced at how charming and innocent Wang Eun was. This caused Baekhyun to crane his head around.
“Are you crying? Am I that good?” He asked, a smirk rising on his face.
“Back off, Byun. I’m not crying.” You replied, not taking your eyes off the action.
So a minute or so passed, and you managed to slightly gather your emotions together, the tears in your eyes disappearing until-
“Grand General, the 10th Prince and his wife are being attacked at the damiwon.”
“What!?” You yelled at the screen, jumping up to sit right on the edge of the sofa. You heard Baekhyun chuckling behind you, but before he could say anything you raised your hand, “Not now, Wang Eun and Soon Deok are in trouble.”
The two of you watched on, and within seconds those tears you managed to get rid of were present and well. You watched as Soon Deok fought off the soldiers, a nervous Eun behind her, and of course, Yo directing it all.
“This Prince Yo has lost it!” You said, the tears becoming obvious in your voice.
“Uh, jagi, he’s actually King at this point,” Baekhyun whispered from behind you, him also moving forwards on the sofa before wrapping his arm around your waist.
“Potato, potatoe.” You whimpered as the guards continued to close in on the couple.
And then, Soon Deok got stabbed. You screamed, practically jumping into Baekhyun’s arms as the first tear ran down your cheek.
“Be quiet. I will be the one to protect you.”
Seeing Wang Eun protecting his wife like this although he had no idea how to face this didn’t help your already erratic feelings within. Him begging his brother only caused your breathing to become more unstable.
“Jagi, are you alright?” Baekhyun asked, his arms surrounding you. You didn’t answer, nodding slightly as you focused on the drama.
And then, Soon Deok, saving her husband’s life, is forced to the ground. At this point, you couldn’t control your tears anymore.
“Jagi.” You could faintly hear Baekhyun saying.
“I’m alright.” You whimpered, continuing to watch.
Eun’s pleas for his wife to come back broke your heart. The voice you had become so accustomed to, Baekhyun’s voice, was now a voice which was full of sadness, a voice you never wanted to hear, because it simply tore your heart to shreds.
After a few minutes, the scene which had touched you more than any scene you’d ever seen was over. Wang Eun and Soon Deok were dead. And your face was well and truly drenched. Even after the scene was over, you turned around, put your head against Baekhyun’s chest, and just cried.
“It’s okay, baby.” He soothed you, stroking your hair.
You pushed back, looking at Baekhyun. His hands came up, wiping away your tears.
“Wow, my acting could really make you cry this much?”
You chuckled, pulling your shirt sleeve up to wipe your face, “Who’d have thought it, huh?”
“This is the most important reaction to me. Your reaction. Forget ratings and things like that. This shows me that all them hours I put in were worth it.” He said, his eyes not leaving you. “Although, I am sorry for making you cry.”
“I’m so proud of you, Baekhyun. There’s nothing you can’t do, is there? Your talent knows no bounds.” You said, looking up at him, smiles rising on both your faces.
Leaning forward, you pulled him into a hug, placing a kiss on his cheek. In your ear, you heard a soft whimper, and pushing back, you saw Baekhyun crying too.
“Why are you crying?” You laughed, tears still leaving your eyes slightly, mainly because you were overwhelmed completely by your love for your boyfriend.
“Your words. They mean so much to me. You’re the reason I’ve truly got this far, you cheering me on for all these years, putting up with me when I was so far away or in a bad mood because of training. You’ve been there all along.” Baekhyun said, his hands entwining with yours, “And I’ll always try to improve to make you prouder and to become more perfect.”
“Baekhyun,” you began, and hand coming up to caress his cheek, “You couldn’t become any more perfect.”
