The Fairy With No Wings

Summer, the time of hot weather, no school, out of town vacations, and new adventures! For little five year old Baekhyun, he was just happy that he didn't have to go to school and now he doesn’t even have to stay in the city.

His father, Heechul, had told him that they would spend the summer in the countryside, with his grandparents, and little Baek couldn’t be happier. He loved his grandparents, they always gave him food and gifts, and told him the stories of the little people that live around their home.

He absolutely loved those stories. Every night he was told one story before going to bed. He'd be in the living room, sitting in between his grandmother's or grandfather’s legs as he ate cookies with a warm glass of milk, and they told him stories.

Baekhyun had never visited their home before, since they always came over to theirs, so he was happy to hear he would finally see the “country life” as his dad called it. He might even get to see the little people, and that’s what he was most excited about.

Heechul smiled as he gazed into the rearview mirror to see his son play with his toys, in the backseat, who then quickly drop them when he saw the huge fields and people outside working and it all just seemed nice and peaceful. Baekhyun was amazed. There was no tall buildings, no loud construction sites, no cars or traffic with the loud honking. It was nice and there was so much open space for him to play or for the little people to live in.

“Appa, will I get to see the little people grandpa and grandma always talks about?” He asked, sitting properly in his seat again and tilted his head to the side looking at himself in the mirror.

Heechul chuckled and gave a small shrug, “Only if you make them a nice house and offer them some food, and you be patient.”

Baekhyun eagerly nodded, taking mental notes, and Heechul deep down had been a bit upset that his mother and father has filled his poor baby’s mind with such fantasies. However, Baekhyun was just five and he’d let him believe what he likes. Sooner or later he would learn that they are not real and it’s just an old tale told around the area.

They soon arrived at his grandparents house and Baekhyun was so quick to get out of the car to jump into his grandma’s arms, as they waited outside for them, that he didn't close the door or pick up the toys that have fallen from his lap. Heechul smiled, shaking his head, picking up the toys and closing the door before he greeted both his parents.

After Heechul brought down all of their luggage from the car, his parents helped them get comfortable in the guest room. The house, to Baekhyun’s surprise, wasn’t old or small. It was a traditional modeled house, but it wasn’t exactly small and it wasn’t huge, but it was big. It was nice and to Baekhyun felt like it was magical, the perfect place to find the little people, or fairies as his grandma called them.

By the time they had finished unpacking and eating a small snack his grandma had made them since dinner wasn't done yet; it was getting dark outside, and by Baekhyun’s wishes they went outside.

His grandpa told him glowing bugs and he just had to see them, so his grandma told him they'd make a cute jar to put some in.

Baekhyun sat in front of his grandma out on the porch, with a small jar set in between them. It was being decorated with some grass two twigs and a few small pink flowers. While Baek put a few more decorations, his grandma poked holes on the lid and placed it back on the jar Baek was holding.

“I'll go check on the dinner, Baekkie. You go look for fireflies.” His grandmother smiled as she stood up and made her way back inside the house, while Baekhyun just nodded and finished up his beautiful jar.

Carefully, he stood up with the jar in one hand and the lid in the other. He walked over to the center of the yard, setting the jar and lid down on the green grass that had a small patch of dandelions.

Right after that, he started running around, chasing a small yellow light he saw floating around. As he did so, more small stars started to appear around him, that he ran around so much, he accidentally tipped over his jar without even noticing.

It was a good ten minutes of him trying to catch fireflies, before he ed the jar. By that point his father stepped outside and called for him, telling him dinner was ready and he should go wash up. Baekhyun quickly picked up the jar putting in the two fireflies he had in one hand, managed to get a few more before closing the lid. He didn't even notice a slight burn mark left on a small section of the jar.

He walked inside and was immediately told by his grandma that he should go wash up since dinner was ready. Baek made his way to his room first, placing the jar on top of a nightstand before he made his way to the bathroom.

After closing the door, the grass and flowers shifted, revealing pink hair and then a face with curious eyes. Slowly the twigs starting moving as well and a small creature appeared. It was confused, scared and lost. Where exactly was he?

He walked around the are looking around him. Glass, grass, pink flowers that matched his hair, twigs and fireflies that glowed. Outside of the glass was a white walls and toys scattered around the floor and a nice small bed. He was curious, but he wanted to get out.

The small creature started climbing the twigs trying to reach the lid, but failed and fell with a flower softening the landing a bit, not really.

It began to get irritated, bursting into small flames making the flower and grass around him wilt a little. It ran around the jar, hitting the glass for some time and leaving more burn marks on the glass.

That went on for a few minutes until the door opened wide and Baekhyun skipped inside, going straight to the jar. The creature hid under the withered grass and flowers, while Baekhyun looked at the jar confused. He grabbed the jar, opening it, and a few fireflies escaping but he didn't mind.

He reached his little hand into the jar, but quickly dropped the jar as he pulled his hand out. He had felt something, but then it burned and it caused him to drop the jar. It broke into different sized pieces and the lightning bugs flew around, but Baek didn't miss a small figure run to the other corner of the room. He didn't mind the broken jar, but knew his dad will worry if he saw it, but he didn't do anything about it.

Baek waved off the burning feeling, his curiosity burning more than his hand. Cautiously he stepped over to the dead end, where his toys layed out and kneeled down.

He was amazed by what he saw behind his red fire truck. A small creature with pointy ears, pink hair and wore clothes made out of leaves it seemed. It was the fairies his grandma talked about! He kept calm, seeing as how it looked scared, peeking at him from behind the truck.

“Hey there little friend… Don't be scared. I don't bite..” He spoke softly, holding his hand out and smiled.

The creature tilted his head, examining the small--but large in comparison to him--boy. It carefully walked out of his hiding place and got closer to Baekhyun’s hand. Once he was sure that he really wasn't going to do anything, he climbed onto his hand.

Baekhyun happily smiled, slowly standing up and placed the pink small person on the nightstand after he carefully walked over to it.

“Wow, you're so pretty.” Baekhyun said the first thing on his mind before he hummed a soft tune, iring it.

“Are you a fairy?” He curiously asked and he noticed he tried to speak but Baek couldn't hear him since it sounded like a faint whisper. The small creature decided on relying on head and hand movements.

He nodded, making the 5 year old squeal before he calmed down.

“Did you burn me?” He asked again and received a nod and then a bow which seemed like an apology.

“How?”

The question made the pink boy hold his hand out, creating a small ball of fire before it disappeared. Baekhyun starred in awe before clapping his hands.

How amazing!

“What's your name?” He asked after a few seconds and the fairy looked around trying to look around for a way on how to answer it. That's when he noticed some building blocks with letters.

He pointed making Baek turn and understand. He picked up the fairy and this is where he started to get more suspicious. Shouldn't fairies fly?

He set him down and watched as it started to arrange the blocks.

C. H. A. N. Y. E. O. L.

“Chanyeol?”

The fairy gave him a thumbs up, smiling brightly.

“I'm Baekhyun!” The little kid introduced himself and held out a finger, which Chanyeol smiled at and shook it with his small hand.

“Hey, Yeol. If you're a fairy… Why don't you have wings?” Baekhyun finally asked with a sad tone, making Yeol frown and turned around showing Baek wings that were mostly burned off. Baekhyun could tell by how they were black around the edges.

“Oh.. How sad..” He pouted and he sniffled before he heard the door creek open.

The brunette was quick to pick up Yeol, hiding him in one of his hands and smiled at his dad once he walked in.

“Baekhyun, what happened?! Why is their broken glass? Are you okay?!” His father worried as he started to check him.

Heechul kissed his head when he noticed everything was okay and smiled in relief.

“I accidentally dropped it and I didn't want to tell you because I thought you would be angry..” He mumbled sadly, and wasn't exactly lying.

“It's okay. Let's get you to bed.” Heechul smiled, relieved nothing happened to his son, and picked him up then set him in the bed.

Baekhyun let go of Chanyeol, feeling his hand burn, and allowed him to hide in the pillows all while his dad grabbed his onesie.

After putting it on, brushing his teeth and telling everyone goodnight and getting goodnight kisses, the toddler returned to bed and got a forehead kiss one more from his.

“Night, Baekkie.”

“Night papa!”

The door closed, signaling Yeol he could come out.

“Yeol you burned me again!” He quietly whined and looked at Chanyeol who appeared from under a pillow and Baekhyun could tell he was sorry with another bow.

“You can sleep here, Yeolie.” Baek added the ending his dad put to his name, onto Chanyeol’s, and patted the pillow he laid. Chanyeol nodded and climbed up to be leveled with his eyed.

“I'm sorry for trapping you.” Baek whispered his apology and felt a small hand on his nose.

Chanyeol touched and rubbed small circles on his nose, telling him it was okay. He had nothing to worry about. He meant well, Chanyeol could see that.

“Goodnight Yeol.” He hummed and closed his eyes, with the pink haired fairy mimicking his actions.

Chanyeol knew he couldn't escape. He had no way out, so all he could do was wait and find a way, but not right now. The door and windows were closed, so there was no way out. That's why he fell asleep.

It was funny how close they have gotten despite knowing each other for a few minutes, but Chanyeol really was curious about the small human boy just as Baekhyun was curious about the fairy without wings.
