_Chapter 12_

Aiden sighed softly, half asleep; he hugged the figure below him “Mr. Bear why are you so warm?” the teen mumbled, thinking he was in bed

“Because I am alive” Kevin’s voice whispered, the elder smiled when the latter hugged tighter

“Aiden~”

“….”

“Oh Aiden~”

“Ten more minutes Mr. Bear…”

“But it’s Sunday….do you really want to sleep the rest of the day away?”

“Ne….”

“Well can you do me a favor?”

“Hmmm….”

“Let go of me before you crush you’re dear brother?”

At that Aiden slowly opened his eyes and yawned letting go “Sorry Vinnie, I fell asleep during the movie…”

“I know, Eli and Dongho took off an hour we came home. So what happened while we were gone” Kevin said, trying to hide a smirk

“Uhhh…hold on” the youngest says ruffling his hair “Uhh we went to the pizza place…I hung out with the Jo twins…Jung-min gave me a hug…Dongho and I came home and came in through the window since someone took my keys with them…” a glare was send to the elder “We watched the movie and I fell asleep…”

“I see…”

“Why?”

“No reason, anyways; Donghae and Sungmin called a while ago and asked if we wanted to hang out at the mall and possibly go karaoke” Kevin said patting his twin’s leg

“Uh sure…when”

“In a few minutes, by the time we come back it’ll be nine; I told Auntie and she is okay with it. She said she’s glad we have some friends. Also we should make a list of who we want to invite…”

“For what”

“The wedding of course!!”

“That’s right…”

“Anyways, what should we do? We need to get them a gift…”

“Yeah…”

“Can you think of anything?”

“We have two more months to think, don’t worry about it yet…” Kevin nodded

“Go get dressed”

“Ne umma….”

“Yah!” Aiden ran up the stairs and dodged the thrown pillow, laughing

“Aish that kid” Kevin muttered sitting on the couch again.

“Sing another one!” Sungmin says smiling after Kevin sang ‘The shadow’ by BoA

“Why~?”

“Because you have an amazing voice”

“So do you!” the three teens yelled making the bunny looking teen blush

“I know…I just like Kevin’s voice better” they all ended up laughing shortly after agreeing they are all amazing singers.

“Aiden it’s your turn” Donghae says taking the teen soda

“Yah!”

“Sing a song and I will give it back”

“Fine…” Aiden sighed standing and looking through the list, after finding a song.

Soon the song ‘Catch Me’ by TVXQ

The three were amazed that the younger could keep up with the song

Just as the youngest ended a middle aged woman came in telling them that their time is up, so they clean up and left to let the next party in, “That was so fun! We should do it again soon!”

“Yeah, and maybe invite more people”

“That sounds fun! Right Aiden” the younger hummed in agreement

“We have to catch the bus fish! Bye Vinnie, Aiden!” Sungmin yelled before grabbing Donghae’s hand and took off running towards the still loading bus

The twins laughed at them before sitting on a bench and waved their friends bye.

After waiting a while their bus came and then boarded

“You know…we should do this more often” Aiden says out loud, when nothing was said he turned and saw Kevin’s shocked, surprised face staring

“You really mean that??” Kevin asks, surprised;

“Yeah, I had fun” the smile on the latter face was enough proof to show he was serious; soon he was brought into a tight hug

“Hyung, stop that; you cannot be shocked every time I say we should do something more often”

“It makes me happy; ever since we came here you’ve always wanted to be alone. Unless I asked to play with you…” Aiden hugged back then makes Kevin let go

“You are crying” the youngest says wiping the tears, “Save those for auntie’s wedding, your proposal, and wedding”

“What about yours?”

“I’ll be lucky enough to date someone…” Aiden muttered, pouting slightly

“You’ll find someone special; you’ll have differences and such. But deep down you’ll love each other very much”

“Are you trying to tell me something?”

“Ehhh no”

“Vinnie”

“I said no, believe me!”

“Fine…I believe you Vinnie” Kevin held his twins hand and smiled, not before kissing the latter head, getting a ‘Vinnie! Not in public bro!’ in response.

The next morning Kevin had to drag a whining Aiden out of bed and down the stairs where Eli and Dongho were

“What’s wrong with him?”

“He stayed up playing his piano and fell asleep around four this morning”

“How do you know he was playing the piano?”

“One, he was asleep with his face on the keyboard, second look at his hands” they did and saw the teen fingers moving as if they were playing

“Wow, that’s creepy…”

“I think he was trying to write a song…for our aunt’s wedding. By the way, would you guys like to come to the wedding? Soohyun is invited too”

“Sure” Eli says with a smile, then nudges Dongho

“Huh? Uh sure…”

“Great!” Kevin said clapping his hands together “Also, Eli; can you carry Aiden please?”

“Sure Vinnie” the latter blushes slightly, smiling.

Eli carried a singing Aiden on his back all the way to the bus stop “What is Aiden singing?” the elder wondered

“Sounds like ‘Marry U’ by that one group he listens to everyday now…”

“Super junior” Eli and Dongho say as the bus comes to a halt in front of them.

Eli sits Aiden by the window and makes Dongho sit with him, while he sat with Kevin “Are you sure this is okay?” he asks softly

“Yes, Dongho need to learn to like Aiden since we’re going to be together” Eli replied

“Alright…” he says lying his head on the blonde’s shoulder “Is Joon going to be there?”

“Sadly yes, but they will stay far away from each other”

“Good, Aiden’s cheek is now starting to regain its natural color instead of the ugly black and blue….”

“Don’t worry” Eli said softly and wrapped an arm around the latter.

Aiden began to stir halfway to the school, yawning he stretched, “Watch where you swing’

The younger looked at Dongho “Sorry…” another yawn “Are we almost there?”

“…” Aiden glared at the other

“You know, it’s too early to be acting this way towards your cousins boyfriend’s twin” he whispered

“Whatever” they look away from each other, no bothering with talking to one another again.

Once they arrived at school Dongho and Eli were first to get off and sprint into the building, leaving the Woo twins to watch and walk at their own pace

“Aiden~”

“What?”

“How are you feeling?”

“Better I guess”

“Okay…we are going to have to keep you away from Joon…”

“I’ll punch him if he comes near me or tries to hit any of us” Kevin gasps at the younger

“Aiden! Violence it never the answer!”

“So again, you want me to step down and let their ego’s grow??”

“Ani….”

“Then let me, I will protect you guys”

“Why are you so stubborn?? Why can’t you stop?”

“I don’t want to appear weak…and you know why…” the elder sighs

“Sometimes I wonder about you…maybe that car accident did something to your head…” he says knocking on his twins head

“Hey!” Kevin chuckles before grabbing Aiden’s hand

“Come on, Sungmin and Alexander are waiting for us”

“Ne” the younger says being dragged.

Aiden felt arms around his waist when they sat in the cafeteria “Hi Aiden” Jung-min says with a smile, the younger bit the inside of his cheek and tried to not blush

“Hey Jung-min hyung” the other rolled his eyes and sat between the twins disconnecting their hands, Kevin looked at the other, carefully.

“Hey so I wanted to know if you wanted to hang out later today?”

“I can’t I have baseball practice”

“How about after?”

“I’m sorry…as much as I’d love to, I can’t”

“Kevin-ah~” Jung-min said turning to the other with a cute expression “Will you let Aiden come with me later today~?”

“I don’t see why not…why don’t you Aid, maybe go around town?” Aiden almost rolled his eyes but his shoulders dropped.

He knew the elder had a date tonight, what’s new?

“Sure…I’ll go with you”

“Grea-Hey!” everyone looked to see a plate fall from his shoulder and food began to follow

“Omo!” Kevin yelled

“This is my best shirt!” Jung-min said dramatically

“Here, let’s get it cleaned; come on” Aiden said dragging the elder “Kev take my backpack please!”

“Sure…” Kevin muttered, glancing back to see the door shut close “Dongho…?” he whispered.

“What were you thinking?”

“I don’t know!”

“What is wrong with you, Joon is gonna be pissed along with Kibum”

“…”

“Come on, let’s go before someone sees us” the smaller figure stands and looks back at the door

“Come on AJ! And be lucky I’m covering for you…”

“Thanks Dongho…” AJ said standing and followed the younger.
