A Cliché Family twentytwo   When Jinki goes to bed that night it's to find Kibum already tucked into his sheets. The air condition is maximum to help the August heat stay away. Jinki tries his best not to disturb his already sleeping husband when he finds his way down under the sheets as well, an arm loosely slung over Kibums hips. He falls asleep a few minutes later. But the two of them are not the only ones sleeping in the house.

Jonghyun, who has his own air condition maximum as well, is tossing and turning while he fights monsters in a nightmare. First the monster eats Taemin, swallows him up like he's nothing but a single tteokbokki on a stick. Then the monster charges after Minho who runs and runs but never escapes. Jonghyun is frozen on the spot and he can only watch while the monster splits his brother in two. The monster then changes direction and lunges for Jonghyun but he's pushed away, only to see his father being speared. He wants to cry. He really really wants to cry or wake up.

When he finally does wake up it's with a gasp and sweat running down his forehead. He fights off the chills that run down his spine. What did Dad say about nightmares? Read a book. He gets up, turns on his reading lamp and finds the fairytale he started reading yesterday. It's a book for school but it's a fairytale so Jonghyun thinks it can do its purpose. Except it doesn't and he keeps seeing the monster eating his family members. So Jonghyun scrambles out of bed and goes into the kitchen to get a glass of water. Something must help, right? He wants to go back to sleep but he's not sure he can sleep when the monster is only waiting for him so he can kill them all again. Jonghyun drinks a glass of water but that doesn't remove the monster either.

In the end he accepts defeat and sneaks into the master bedroom. The double bed is not huge per se but there's definitely enough space for him as well. So he climbs into bed with his fathers, settles between them and falls asleep. With his fathers to protect him, there's nothing to be afraid of.

Taemin doesn't like sleeping alone. He was put to bed last night alone though, his fathers leaving him in the bed that serves to be his. But he definitely does not like it. So when he wakes up around 2 am and realizes he's all alone in the darkness he starts crying. This, of course, wakes up Kibum, who is the lightest sleeper of the two fathers and he hurries to find the 2 year old crying. He's tired and groggy and doesn't really think when he lifts Taemin off of his bed and carries him back to bed. It's only then that he finds the 12 year old Jonghyun sleeping beside his father and Kibum rubs his tired eyes. Jonghyun is not supposed to be sleeping with them. Kibum sets Taemin in the double bed and nudges Jonghyun a little.

"Jonghyun," he whispers in order not to wake up Jinki. Jonghyun stirrs and slowly opens his eyes. He looks just as tired as Kibum feels. "What are you doing here?" Kibum asks and Jonghyun sits up in the bed so he can look at Kibum.

"Nightmare," he mumbles
