It's a good thing I decided to go back and read your Kris/Lay fic again, or I wouldn't have seen this!
You keep outdoing yourself every time, seriously, and this fic hits a lot of my emotional kinks - love tri...angles?, people settling for each other when they can't have who/what they really want, falling for one's tragically heterosexual best friend. I love how differently Kris and Baekhyun deal with their unrequited feelings and how that difference manifests in how they interact with each other, with the way Baekhyun lashes out so sharply and cruelly and how kris just kind of - gives in. It seems really realistic, I think, given what we know of their personalities. (Not that Baekhyun seems cruel, but I could see him being at least temporarily blindsided by emotions.)
I also love it when you write stories from Kris's PoV, because he seems so neutral and poised in interviews and on shows (unless Layhan are giving him a hard time) that it's refreshing to read about his inner turmoil? haha. And the ending of this, ugh, my heart. It's so believable too, because Chanyeol does seem like the type to love everyone, to not discriminate with his affections.
