Taemin liked finishing his classes early on Thursdays. It meant going to the grocery store to buy ingredients for whatever delicious meals he’d make for the next few days. He liked the fact that he could cook and Minho would come home from his class that he had, smell the food and kiss Taemin as he tried to steal a taste of it. Taemin would always laugh as he scolded him and let him taste it anyway. It made them feel like a real married couple, and Taemin liked that. Jisoo would even bound into the room sometimes and Taemin would pick him up and cradle him like a child.

                But today, something was amiss. Taemin opened the door to see Minho’s shoes still on the shoe rack. Surely Minho wouldn’t leave the house without his shoes. Unless he’d worn another pair of shoes. But his bag was also sitting by the door, and Taemin was sure that Minho would not leave both his shoes and his bag when he went to class.

                Taemin crept over to the bedroom and opened the door. Sure enough, Minho was fast asleep on the bed when he was supposed to be in class.

                “Hyung!” Taemin cried, shaking Minho gently.

                “Umma,” Minho groaned, “come on, five more minutes.”

                “Hyung, I’ve already told you a million times, I am not your umma. Wake up! You’re missing class right now! You’re not supposed to be here!”

                Minho bolted upright and tried to scramble out of bed, but Taemin caught him.

                “Since you’re here, you might as well stay with me. Because, as you very well know, I am absolutely, completely in love with you. And I like when we’re like a real married couple.”

                “I’m skipping class to play house?” Minho asked, smiling, and Taemin nodded. 

A/N: So today is another milestone! 366 has officially surpassed 50000 (yes, that is FIFTY THOUSAND) words. And would you believe that the 50000th word is "love?" Well, it is :) Thanks for sticking with me this long. I know I always say that but it's so true. I really appreciate you guys.
