A Cliché Family

A Cliché Family eleven   Kibum is a lucky man. He is 28 years old and he has a wonderful family. And right now, on this cold day in December, he is in the kitchen once again. Contrary to the past 3 years with his family, he is not spending his time in the kitchen baking Christmas cookies with Jonghyun or cooking a delicious Christmas dinner.

Jonghyun is now 4 years old and has been in kindergarten for a little over 6 months. He's spending most of his days with friends and playing around other kids in the kindergarten while he learns of pre-school subjects. Minho just turned 2 a couple of days earlier and even he seems to need less pampering than he used to. He also seems to need less pampering than Jonghyun needed when he was 2. But it doesn't matter to Kibum because he likes watching his family grow and he loves seeing them happy.

No, the reason he is in the kitchen on this god-awful cold day in the morning is because his boyfriend of 4 years is turning 30 and Kibum wants to surprise him with a delicious breakfast.

It's a Saturday and both he and Jinki are off from work. So Kibum has planned today to be extra special. He knows that it's not really that big of a deal but this feels special anyway. He turns the pancakes and checks on the eggs in the oven when Minho suddenly clings to his leg. The boy says nothing but just looks around. He settles on his father before he reaches out as if to ask Kibum to lift him. The man complies easily, lifting the 2-year-old and bringing him around in the kitchen while he fixes the last of the luxurious breakfast he has been making. He swears the toddler is taller than Jonghyun was at 2. It wouldn't surprise Kibum if Minho ended up being taller than his older brother.

Just as Kibum tips the last pancake from the pan to the plate, the door to the kitchen opens again and he hears a yawn that can only indicate Jonghyun. He turns around and smiles at the boy.

"Dad," he says and Kibum reaches out the hand that doesn't hold Minho, to invite Jonghyun into a morning hug. The boy doesn't hesitate to snuggle up close to his father and Kibum stands in the middle of the kitchen with his two favorite boys in the world. "What are you doing?" Jonghyun asks when he lets go of Kibum, but sleep is still etched in his voice. Kibum turns around and starts putting the food on a tray. For once, he's going to let Jinki eat in bed because breakfast in bed sort of fits today.

"I made breakfast for your father," he answers and Jonghyun nods sleepily. It's getting a little troublesome now that Jonghyun has started referring to both of them as 'dad' and Kibum sometimes silently wishes that he could once again be 'daddy Bum'. He knows it's not going to happen but a man can dream, right?

He lets Jonghyun carry the glasses and the juice and has to put down Minho in order to carry the tray into the master bedroom. Minho fists his small hands into the back of Kib

Chapter 2: Ahhh, can I just say how much I love the father-son relationship between Jinki and Jonghyun?? Like, it’s so adorable seeing how attentative Jinki is towards Jonghyun. ;w; These two are just so cute, oorz-

Buttt, the OnKey scenes. :D I may or may not have died on multiple occasions:
1. The mere fact that Jinki just called Kibum ‘babe’ had me dying on my couch (not really, still-)
2. When Jinki asked Kibum to speak human or else Jonghyun will continue learning his ‘weird noises’. X’D Duuude, that’s so funny. :’D
3. Jinki pecking Kibum on the cheek. I can’t, okay? I know it’s small and simple, but you made me fall in love with small and simple. (QvQ)
4. Jinki laughing at Jonghyun hitting Kibum, and the pout on Kibum afterwards. X’D Ahhh, poor Kibum. ;v;
5. Kibum complaining about not getting enough kisses, and Jinki’s promise to give him some later. [wiggle brows] Okay, I’m sorry, I’ll stop-
6. Jinki comforting Kibum after what happened between Jonghyun and Comme Des. (QAQ) Aww, it’s okay, Kibum. With time, I’m sure Jonghyun would also feel safe around you. <3
7. The kisses that Jinki promised Kibum. X’D Period.

Seriously, this family (can we call it one yet?) of three is just adorable, I dare anyone to say otherwise! (O^O)

Chapter 1: I was squealing over Jonghyun at first. He’s so adorable! It’s so cute to see how Jinki is so soft towards Jonghyun and how he can’t deny Jonghyun anything. Aha, he could be a great father if he wasn’t giving his son ice cream to eat. (^^”) Still, an awesome father with an adorable kid and the interaction is just so heart fluttering! <3

And then, Kibum came into the picture, and I may or may not have fainted. I mean, I can’t don’t, okay? I really like how Kibum is fond of Jonghyun and how honest he is about wanting to date Jinki. X’D His reactions are just golden and I love every bit of the OnKey moment.

Ahhh, I’m already loving this! CX

I just can't believe that it took me this long to find this. Maybe because I don't read chaptered ones so oftenly. But I'm more than glad I started reading this one. It's just so cute!!! TT TT And yes, I read all the chapters. When I finished reading the last one (Q/A) I didn't realize it was the last so I was looking for the 'Next' option and there was no such a thing and I felt like crying for real TT TT This is just so beautiful. I love it so so soooo much!! I can't describe in words how much I love your story. Seriously, this is the most beautiful story I've ever read. You made me really really happy with this. I love you!!! And you're not going to end it, right? It's not completed yet, right? Hope you'll update soon. You did a really great job authornim. Clap clap clap!! Hehe...

Chapter 22: Aaawww this is so cute *w*
I feel so tired for them lmao, especially onkey ! How do they even manage to handle those kids... Having kids is tiring (>.<)
Toddler Taemin walking up and down the aisle with his dads (;-;) my weak heart... That's so adorable ♥
For a moment I expected Jinki and Minho to race for real... Guess we'll never know who'd win (Minho would, wouldn't he)
SHINee sleeping on each other's shoulders is one of my favorite concepts ♥
Yaaah ! Why do kids never listen when you tell them something ? Tsk...
I agree with them, they shouldn't take the train again... It's too burdensome with the kids
Thank you for the update, Minji ! :D It was cute ♥ I liked it !
