A Cliché Family
Please log in to read the full chapter
A Cliché Family Thirty   They buy a house in the beginning of May. It's still in Seoul, in a reasonable distance to Jonghyun's high school and Minho's middle school so that the two boys don't have to transfer. The elementary school is closer but new and it's a welcome change for Taemin who now seems to be able to find friends instead of only bullies. The house also comes with enough space for all 5 of them and a small garden. Kibum has a lot of plans for that garden.

The sun is shining and they only need to put the last few picture frames up before the house is finally decorated the way they want it to be. Jonghyun has shut himself into his bedroom as usual and Minho is playing football with Taemin in the garden. Jinki is finishing his preparations for his lecture tomorrow and Kibum walks around in the living room, trying to figure out exactly where he wants the last pictures to be.

It's only 30 minutes later when Jonghyun joins Kibum in the living room and connects his phone to the speakers.

"Hey dad, listen to this," he says and plays a song. It's an old song, Kibum remembers the lyrics slightly from when he, himself, was teenager and he smiles a little at the 17-year-old boy. Jonghyun is waiting for Kibum's approval so when Kibum nods Jonghyun lights up in a smile.

"I remember this," Kibum says and sings along. Jonghyun starts laughing but soon joins in as well. Jinki groans when the boy turns up the volume and it reaches him in the office. He can't concentrate with the music and he still has a few things to prepare. But when he enters the living room to ask them to turn the volume down, he's met with a dancing Jonghyun and Kibum.

The two seems to be absorbed in the music and although it isn't looking very choreographed, it looks fun. He smiles at his husband and their oldest son and when Kibum notices him he sends him a wave, an invitation to join.

Jinki spends 5 seconds contemplating before he gives in and joins the other two in the living room. All three men are singing loud and dancing to the music, hips swaying and arms in awkward movements.

When the song shifts into something more modern Jonghyun drags Kibum to the middle of the living room and shows him a video of someone dancing.

"Come on dad!"

The teenager says and urges the 40-year-old man to start dancing.

Kibum tries but it ends up with the other two males laughing. Just then Minho and Taemin enter the house and they're hurrying into the living room, only to find Kibum dancing awkwardly and Jonghyun and Jinki splayed out on the couch, laughing. Minho bursts into laughter as well at the sight. Taemin hurries to his father's rescue and starts dancing with him as well. Kibum is grateful for the soon-to-be-7-year-old boy and ignores the rest of the family.



Taemin comes home from school one day in the middle of June to find Jinki in the kitchen, drinking a cup of coffee and reading a paper

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 !
