"Hey Hyerim?" Donghae asks

"Yes appa?" Hyerim responds

"Could you pick up some of your stuff that's by the door, like your backpack?"

"Why?"

"Because... umm..."

"Is it Mr. Lee appa?" Hyerim giggles

"No!" Donghae blushes "Well maybe."

"Tell me appa!"

"Why?"

"Because, I'm your daughter!" Hyerim laughs

"Alright... yes it's because of Mr. Lee... Don't tell him that." Donghae blushes as Hyerim pretends to zips her lips "Thanks sweetie. Now could you please help me?"

"Of course Appa!" Hyerim says as she runs around the apartment to clean up a bit before the doorbell rings "Appa!"

"I'm coming!" Donghae shouts, runs to the door and opens it "Hey, Hey Eunhyuk..."

"Hey Donghae." Eunhyuk smiles "Where do you want to go?"

"Oh... do we have to go somewhere, or do want to stay here and do something?"

"Do you think Hyerim would be okay with us?" Eunhyuk asks

"Yeah, she'll be in her room the entire time anyway... I can make you dinner."

"That sounds nice." Eunhyuk sighs in relief "Can I come in?"

"Sure." Donghae smiles and lets Eunhyuk in. He guides him to the kitchen, and apologizes for the size of the whole thing. Eunhyuk doesn't mind at all, and Donghae couldn't be more happy that Eunhyuk doesn't seem to care about everything in the apartment.

"So, what are you going to make me?" Eunhyuk asks

"For us, I'm going to make spaghetti and sauce, if that's okay with you."

"I'd love to try it." Eunhyuk laughs softly "But what about Hyerim?"

"I'll make some for her to, she can eat it in her room if she wants to."

"Aww, you spoil her don't you?" Eunhyuk asks sarcastically

"I do. I told you she's my everything Eunhyuk." Donghae laughs as he starts cooking for them

"You're such a good father... I hope one day I could have a family."

"You will have a family one day Eunhyuk," Donghae reassures him

"Thanks." Eunhyuk smiles

"Of course." Donghae smiles back "Do you have a story for me?"

"Hm?"

"You said you'd give me a story worth listening to. What story do you have for me?" Donghae laughs

"I don't have anything... hmm... you deserve it though especially after last night."

"I'm waiting." Donghae coos as he starts to warm up the sauce

"What do you want to know about?"

"Favorite memory?"

"Favorite memory... I don't have one good enough for a story."

"Traumatizing?"

"Well I did get a pretty bad injury when I was in school, like college, for dance and I almost failed my class because I couldn't participate much in it, but that's too boring. Give me an idea..."

"I did give you ideas! Ugh you need a story."

"Yeah, but about what?" Eunhyuk laughs at Donghae's insistance

"I don't care! You need a story, and I'll help make you one."

"Deal." Eunhyuk smiles 

"And there dinner's ready. I'll go tell Hyerim. You can dish up in the meantime." Donghae says as he walks to Hyerim's room

"Sounds good to me!" Eunhyuk shouts after him

"Hey sweetie, dinner's ready if you want some." Donghae says, gently nudging Hyerim

"Is Mr. Lee here?" Hyerim asks

"He is. Do you not want him to be here?"

"No, I like him appa." Hyerim giggles and skips to the kitchen and gets some spaghetti and sits down at the table in between Donghae and Eunhyuk

"Hyerim... don't you want to eat in your room?" Donghae asks

"Nope, I want to be out here with you Appa and Mr. Lee." Hyerim smiles

"Okay..." Donghae says and sits down with them

"So, what grade are you in Hyerim?" Eunhyuk asks

"Third grade." Hyerim gleams

"Third grade?! What are you learning right now?!"

"I don't know..." Hyerim laughs

"You don't know?!" Eunhyuk asks, pretending to be shocked

"I don't!" Hyerim says as she bursts into a fit of laughter. Donghae can't help but start to laugh as hard as his daughter as he watches her, and Eunhyuk joins the both of them until they all run out of breath

"Hey, I'm about to tuck Hyerim in... do you want to help me Eunhyuk?" Donghae asks, as Eunhyuk gets up to go get something

"Sure." Eunhyuk smiles as they walk to Hyerim's room

Donghae walks over to Hyerim who's lying on her bed. He smiles and tucks the blankets over her, only for her to stretch her arms abover her head, messing up the blankets again. Donghae laughs and retucks the blankets, just how she likes them "Good night sweetie."

"Night night appa." Hyerim whispers

"Good night Hyerim." Eunhyuk says and smiles

"Night night..." Hyerim whispers and falls asleep

"Let's go." Donghae mouths to Eunhyuk and they creep out to the living room

"I had a great night tonight." Eunhyuk smiles

"It's a bit too late to drive home... would you like to stay her for the night?" Donghae asks

"If you don't mind... where should I sleep?"

"Umm.... do you want to sleep on my bed with me?"

"I'd love to Donghae." Eunhyuk says and follows Donghae to his bedroom

"Good night Eunhyuk."

"Good night Donghae." Eunhyuk smiles and kisses Donghae's head before falling asleep. Donghae still manages to feel the kiss even after he manages to doze off. He can't wait for tomorrow
