--- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) ---

Baekhyun and Xiumin clapped in unison. "So cute!" Baekhyun said. "And it is so sweet!"

"Plus, it was on television!" Xiumin added.

The two continued to chat about how adorable Kris was; how nervous, but was able to be composed in front of millions of viewers. Tao sat back and thought about what Kris did; no doubt he thought it was cute. A slight blush came to his face; how many people would do that? Apologize and confess at the same time on television. Maybe a few or maybe those that are brave enough to do it would.

"You are so lucky Tao." The Panda looked up, breaking his thoughts to face Baekhyun. "It was sweet and…and…ah! I can't even put any words to it!" He cupped his own face and turned to Chanyeol. "Would you do that too?"

"The what? Confess and or apologize in front of millions of people?"

"Hm!" Baekhyun nodded. "Yeah, would you?"

"Nope." Chanyeol joked, but the other didn't sense his sarcasm. Instead, Baekhyun crossed his arms and gave a glare at the taller. "I'm kidding." Chanyeol said with a chuckle as he wrapped his arms around the shorter. "You know I would." He gave Baekhyun a peck on the head. "Because I love you."

Baekhyun felt a blush coming on; he smiled at his boyfriend, satisfied with the answer. "I love you too."

Tao gave a small smile at the two. He would like that and he would like to spend it with a certain someone.

"So Tao, what are you going to do now?" Chen asked.

"What do you mean?"

"What I mean is, like, when Boss comes back home…are you going to run up to him and give him a big hug and a kiss?"

Tao pondered a bit. 'Should I do that? Hm…' "No."

The rest of the company raised their eyebrow at the Panda. "Why not?" Sehun asked. "I mean, that would be the most ideal thing right?"

"No…I want him to say it to me, face to face."

"Face to face? But Tao, he said it in front of millions of viewers." Sehun said as he gestured the television. "That should be enough right?"

Tao shook his head. "That may be…but I think it is more special if it is said face to face." He gestured over to his best friend and Chanyeol. "When I see Baekhyun and Chanyeol or Xiumin and Chen say their "I love you's" to each other…I can see a little twinkle in their eye. It is special when it is said face to face. I don't really care if he did in front of the whole world…I would prefer if he told me. Plus, he wouldn't have known that I seen this."

"Eh?" Sehun said as he tilted his head.

"He thinks I'm in China with Aaron still…and I didn't know Kris was having a fashion show. I wouldn't have known that he was going to be interviewed. Even if I was still in China, I wouldn't have known right away that he did this. And this is an English channel right? I don't have channels from America, so in other words, I would probably never know about it."

The rest of the company nodded in understanding. "Thats true." Xiumin said. "Well, now you know…so, really, what are you going to do?"

"I'm going to make him work for it."

Chen snorted. "Work for it?"

Tao nodded. "He said he loved me right?" The company nodded. "Well, this is his chance to make things right. He can tell it to my face."

"Wow, Tao…you are like the ring master with the whip." Chen chuckled.

"But don't help him okay if he asks." Tao pointed out. "He has to do this by himself."

"Yup, Tao has a whip alright." Sehun nodded, while everyone chuckled along.

--- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) ---

Kris rolled over in his bed and let out a hoarse cough; he was in his hotel room and its already 3 in the afternoon. Even though he was supposed to stay in New York for a week, its been only 2 days and Kris hasn't been feeling well. He slowly sat up, not wanting to have a full on head pain. He reached over on his bed side table for his phone; he smiled a bit when he opened it. A picture of a smilingTao carrying a very much happy Yitao in his arms during the Christmas holidays was displayed on his screen. He remembered that he still had it and thought that he should put it to good use. After all, Tao wasn't back in Korea and won't be returning; this is probably the only thing Kris could have of Tao.

'3:45 in the afternoon.' Kris groaned and landed back in his bed. 'Should I just go home?'

After having a mini debate with himself, he called Hayi, even though it was way early in Korea; he asked her to have his private plane pilot, Jongin, come to New York and get him.

"Not feeling well?" Hayi asked with tiredness in her voice.

"Y-yeah." Kris rubbed his head a bit. "I feel like I'm going to pass out here."

"Okay, I'll tell Jongin to come and get you."

"How fast?"

"At 8 tonight New York time. Can you hold on for that long?"

Kris nodded his head. "Yeah."

"Okay, but then Boss Kris…what about the rest of the week?"

"I was going to ask you and Youngbae to fill in for me. You guys know my stuff…you seen the work that I did. And I updated my portfolio which I sent to you before I left for New York. Everything is set for you two. You think you two can handle it?"

"Of course Boss Kris."

"Thanks Hayi.You are the best. Talk to you later." With that, he hanged up the cell phone and covered his eyes with his arm. 'Hm, headache go away.'

--- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) ---

"Bless you." Jongin said as he helped Kris with his things.

"Thank you." Kris replied as he wiped his nose with his handkerchief. "Uh, as much as I love New York…I wanna go home."

"Well, you can rest in the plane." Jongin said, patting Kris on the back. "And Kyungsoo is here too. He can make you something."

"Hm…I'm not hungry --"

"Your always not hungry. Are you on a diet?"

"N-no! I'm just not hungry is all." The Dragon defended himself. "I just wanna sleep."

"Your immune system is way down Sir. Eat something. Eat some oranges, drink some milk or whatever."

"Fine then." Kris sighed as he got in the plane. Jongin shook his head and carried his Boss' things to the plane.

--- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) ---

"Huh?" Chanyeol adjusted his cell phone in his ear. He was currently sitting in the kitchen along with Baekhyun, Xiumin, and Chen, drinking a cup of tea. "You're home?"

"Yeah. I'm not feeling well. I'm at the airport in Korea right now."

Chanyeol stood up from his seat, catching the three immediately. "I'll go right now." He started to walk out of the kitchen, making the other three raise their eyebrows. They soon heard the front door close.

"Where is he going?" Chen asked.

"Well, he said 'you're home?'…so I guess it is Boss?" Xiumin replied. "Maybe he isn't feeling well."

"He is sick? And he still went all the way to New York?" Baekhyun was surprised that Kris, despite being sick, he still went. "Your Boss is a strong person."

"He wasn't feeling well before that. He wasn't eating well or anything." Chen said. "We were getting worried about him."

"I'm even surprised he was able to stand and smile at the audience." Xiumin pointed out.

They chatted a bit before they heard Tao come out with sad young panda in his arms, head buried on his shoulder.

"Whats wrong with Yitao?" Baekhyun asked with worried eyes.

"He had a bad dream." Tao said trying to calm the younger by patting his head with his free hand. "I was just sleeping next to him and he woke me up." The Panda laid his head on the younger's head.

"I'm sorry mommy." Yitao said against Tao's shoulder.

"Ah! Mommy isn't mad. Mommy was just worried." He placed Yitao on the counter, about to make him some warm warm milk and honey, but the young panda wouldn't let go. "You need to let me go so I can make you a cup of warm milk Yitao." He said on his head, but still the young panda refused and held onto Tao tightly.

"I'll do it." Xiumin chuckled as he got up from his seat and started making the cup for Yitao.

"Thank you." He said to the chef as he returned to comfort the young panda.

"Mommy," The young panda started, making the other look down at him. "Daddy isn't going away right?"

"Hm?" Tao bent down slightly so he could see Yitao's eyes. "What do you mean by that?"

Yitao rubbed his eyes with his little hand. "My dream…Daddy didn't come back home from that place. He never came back home." He wiped his eye with his little hands. "I'm not mad at daddy anymore. I want daddy to come home."

"H-he's coming back. It will just be a week."

"Actually, scratch that." Chen told the Panda.

"Huh? What do you mean?"

"We think that he might be coming back early." Baekhyun said. "Chanyeol just left to pick him up I think."

"Really?" Yitao looked over his shoulder at the other. "Daddy is coming home?"

Baekhyun nodded. "Yup. So you will get to see him in a few minutes or so."

Yitao's eyes brighten. "Mommy," He started as he turned his head back to Tao. "Can I stay up and wait for daddy? I want to say I'm sorry for being mad at him."

"Okay." Tao patted the young panda's head. "Just this once though…it's getting late too." He tapped Yitao on the nose with his left index finger.

The young panda smiled. "Thank you mommy! But don't worry, once daddy comes home, I'll tell him straight away."

Tao giggled some and hugged the younger tightly. By then, Xiumin was able to get the cup of warm milk and honey. He handed it to Yitao, who gladly accepted the cup, and started to drink it.

"Aww! You are so cute Yitao!" Baekhyun said as he approached the young panda, patting his baby cheeks with his hands. "How are you so adorable?"

Yitao shrugged and continued to drink his warm milk. Baekhyun and Tao chuckled at the young panda's cuteness.

"Done!" Yitao smiled and he handed the cup to Tao.

"Oh, you have a milk mustache Yitao." Tao grabbed a towel and started to wipe Yitao's lips. "There! All gone."

The young panda beamed. "Can I wait in the living room for daddy?"

Tao nodded and picked up the younger, placing him on the floor. Yitao thanked his 'mother' and ran out to the living room to wait for his father to return home.

"So…Boss is coming." Chen stood up, approaching them. "Are you going to surprise him and all since you are here." He let out a chuckle, making Xiumin smack him on his stomach.

"For your information…no. I was going to confront him tomorrow morning." He looked at the clock. "It is almost midnight…he might to sleep you know. I don't want to be a bother." Tao covered his mouth and let out a yawn. "I'm tired myself as well…so its better to do it in the morning."

"Why don't you sleep?" Xiumin said to the other. "We won't tell him you are here. After all, it is your business."

Tao nodded thinking that it was a good idea. He bid them goodnight and started to head to his room. He closed the door and flopped on his bed, grabbing a pillow and placing it under his chin. His heart started to beat; how was Kris going to react. Was Kris going to say all those things again? He slightly hoped so. Tao started to smile; he was happy that Kris loved him back. He squealed a bit, rolling back and forth on his bed.

'Oh,' He stopped to stare at the ceiling. 'Hm, I can't call him my prince yet.' He nodded. 'Not until he says it. Shouldn't be that hard right?'

--- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) ---

"Looks who home guys." Chanyeol said as he opened the door. Yitao smiled and got off from the couch.

"Daddy!" He ran towards his father, making Kris smile. He knelt down at opened his arms, and let Yitao give him a hug. He was just happy that his son was coming up to him again; he was starting to worry that his son hates him forever. He just couldn't handle that again. "Welcome home!" Yitao placed a kiss on his father's head. "I'm sorry for being mad…I'm not mad anymore."

Kris chuckled. "Well, I'm glad."

"And Daddy guess what! M--"

"Yitao, daddy is really tired and he wants to sleep okay?" He stood up and patted his son's head. "And he isn't feeling good."

"Okay, but dad --"

"You can tell me in the morning okay." He turned to Chanyeol. "Can you please bring them up to my room?"

"Yeah, sure." The chauffeur said.

"And," Kris said as he bent down, tapping Yitao on the nose. "It is passed your bed time. It is already midnight. Time for bed." With that, Kris and Chanyeol left, up the stairs.

Yitao watched as his father and his 'uncle' walk up the stairs. "But," He said softly. "Mommy is back." He sighed and started to head to his room to go back to sleep. 'Thats okay, I'll tell daddy tomorrow!' He beamed.

--- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) ---

Tao rose from his bed and stretched a bit. He yawned and grabbed his cell phone checking the time.

'11? Wow, I woke up late.'

He got up and headed to the private bathroom to wash himself up. He wore a plain long sleeve white button up with a stripe-cuff denim shorts that went at the knee. Tao bent down and grabbed his navy canvas classics tom shoes. He put them on and checked himself in the mirror, turning around to make sure he looked good. Once satisfied, he left his room.

He made his way to the kitchen, where Xiumin, Chen, and even Yitao were.

"Where is Chanyeol and Baekhyun?"

The three turned to face the other; Yitao smiled and jumped off from his chair and gave his 'mother' a hug.

"They left…hm, maybe 2 hours ago." Chen chuckled. "Sleepy head."

"And Sehun is outside. He wanted to plant some flowers today." Xiumin added in.

"And what about --"

"Your prince is in his chambers…sleeping." Chen said with a grin. "Chanyeol told us last night that he wasn't feeling too well when he picked him up."

"We think it is because he hasn't been eating or sleeping well." Xiumin sighed. "His immune system is probably low."

"That," Chen pointed at Tao. "Or that he is missing him a lot and he as fallen into a slight depression making him not eat, sleep, or anything, and this whole working hard was to keep his mind distracted."

Tao lowered his head. He realized that Chen could be right about that. He worked hard to make the designs perfect as possible, for him. Those designs, were dedicated to him. According to Xiumin and company, he has been in his stuffy studio all day everyday, not eating or sleeping well. All because he wanted everything to be perfect. Now that he is sick, he was starting to feel bad.

"Chen," Tao lifted his head up. "Look what you did…you made Tao all sad."

"N-no," Tao shook his head. "He is right." He picked up the young panda and carried him to the kitchen table. "Has he eaten?"

Xiumin shook his head. "Well, not really. If you count eating fruit, but thats it. Its not enough."

"O-oh."

"Mommy," Yitao tugged on Tao's sleeve. "Lets make something for daddy. Lets make him a late breakfast!"

"Thats a great idea." Chen said as he nodded. "And bring it to him. Besides, I think Boss will be happy to know that you are here."

The Panda slightly blushed. "I could --"

"Yay!" Yitao clapped. "Lets make daddy some food!"

--- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) ---

Tao slowly opened the door to the Dragon's room while successfully holding onto a tray of food, a small bowl of warm water, a clean hand towel, and medicine. Him and Yitao were able to make Kris a delicious breakfast with the help of the chef of course; along with the pancakes, Tao was able to make scrambled eggs, grilled bacon, toasted bread, and for dessert, a cup of jello along with a cup of orange juice.

He peaked in and saw the Dragon, sleeping with used tissues in his bed.

'Sneezing a lot huh?' Tao pouted a bit. He slipped in and closed the door as gently as possible. He approached to the bed and placed the tray on the night stand. 'Chair…chair…oh!' Tao made his way to Kris' drafting table and grabbed the chair. Bringing it closer to Kris' bed side, he sat down and scooted closer to the bed.

'Should I wake him up?' Tao tilted his head as he watched the other breath in and out. 'God, I feel like I'm a stalker.'

Despite the feeling, he couldn't let his eyes stray away from the handsome Dragon. Even though he still had his facial hair, he still looked handsome as he was before. Tao smiled a bit; if he could, he would watch the other sleep all day.

Kris shifted a bit in his bed, making the Panda cautious. The Dragon turned his head, now facing Tao, exhaling a bit. Kris slowly opened his eyes and blinked a bit.

'Hm?' Kris then squinted his eyes, letting them adjust to the dim lit room. 'That guy looks like Tao.' As he was adjusting to the figure sitting in front of him, his eyes widen, fully realizing who it was. "T-Tao?!"

The Panda cleared his throat a bit. "H-hi."

'Oh my god!!' Kris quickly sat up and tried to clear his bed by literally throwing all the used tissues on the floor. 'T-Tao is here! He is here! And I look like ! This cannot be happening!!' Kris quickly laid back down on his bed, grabbing his blanket and bringing it over his nose. "T-Tao?" The Dragon blinked once again. "How…erm, w-what are you doing here?"

"Hm?" Tao raised his eyebrow. "You are sick and you are asking me what I am doing here?"

Kris brought the blanket down a bit, now under his chin. "W-well…I…um."

"Never mind that." Tao turned to the night stand and grabbed the plate of scrambled eggs and grilled bacon. "You need to eat now."

"B-but --" Kris wasn't able to finish his sentence since Tao took the opportunity to stuff Kris' face with the food that he cooked.

"Chew please." Tao ordered. He watched as the Dragon chewed his food and swallowed. Tao leaned over and fed Kris once again.

'Why is he here?' Kris thought as he chewed. 'W-wait, if he is here…what about Aaron? Did Tao break up with him? If so, why? Or did they have a fight? Aaron better not have hit him or I swear --'

"Take these." Tao opened the medicine bottle and took out a tablet. "So then after you finish, you can rest some more." He smiled at the other, making his heart beat.

'There it is. He is smiling.'

"Okay?" Tao handed Kris his medicine. "Sir, are you okay?"

"I-I…erm, yeah." Kris sat up and took the medicine from Tao's hand. Once he took it,  Tao told him to eat some more, in which he did.

"You finished everything!" Tao said with a smile on his face. "Thats good!" He took the now empty cup from Kris' hands. "Now you can rest." As Tao was about to stand up, Kris quickly, but gently, grabbed Tao's wrist, pulling him back down.

"W-wait."

"Hm? Is there something that you need?"

"Um," 'H-his eyes are so beautiful.' "I…um, I was wondering…why --"

"Why am I here?" Tao finished him off.

"Well, y-yeah. If you don't mind me asking."

Tao his dry lips. "Ah, just because."

'Just because?' "That really --"

"How about I tell you another time okay?" He laid his hand on top of Kris'. "You need to rest. Xiumin and the others are worried about you. They told me you were sick…so, please get better soon okay?"

Kris could only nod and he released his hand from Tao's wrist. He took a mental note of it to ask him later. He watched as Tao picked up the tray and headed towards the door. Once the Panda was gone, Kris laid back on his bed.

'I can't believe he is here…' His eyes widen at a certain thought. 'Did he just arrive? Or was he here for a while now?' He bit his lip. 'I wonder if he saw confession slash apology I did on television…if he was here for a while now, he must've watch the fashion showcase with them. But that doesn't mean I regret it…if I could, I would do it again, but,' Kris sighed when he remembered that the person that he loved dearly is with someone else. 'He is still with Aaron though…right?'

--- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) ---

"So how did he take it?" Chen asked as he looked up from his paper.

"He was asking, like why and how I got here, but," Tao placed the tray near the sink. "I told him that I will explain everything to him later. I want him to rest."

"Hm." Chen nodded. "I see that he ate…thats good."

"Yeah, I had to feed him." Tao said as he started to place the dishes in the sink.

"What a good wife you are." The chauffeur joked, but the other said nothing against it.

--- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) ---

"So how is Tao?"

Sehun adjusted his cell phone, placing it on his left ear. "He is doing okay Luhan."

"Really?"

"Hm." Sehun nodded. "Yeah," He leaned back in his chair, taking a peak inside the kitchen, where Tao and Chen were talking. "I think he just made some food for Kris…you know how my Boss is."

"Yeah, how is he?"

"I hope that he is getting better. I mean, he has been sick."

Sehun continued to tell Luhan about the recent events that happened and among other things. The conversation then steered towards how much they missed one other.

"You know that I love you right?" Sehun said making the other blush.

Luhan shifted a bit on the couch, feeling a little heat on his cheeks. "Yeah." He smiled. "I know."

"I wish you were here though." Sehun leaned forward a bit in his chair. "I miss you too much."

"Uncle Sehun."

Sehun then looked up to see Yitao tilting his head at him. "Hold on…" He told Luhan. "Yes Yitao, what is it?"

"Who you talking to?"

"Auntie Luhan." The gardener said with a smile.

"Oh! Can I talk to auntie?"

"Sure." Sehun lent the phone to Yitao, who gladly took it.

"Auntie?"

Luhan blinked a couple of times before smiling. "Yes Yitao?"

"Ha! Auntie!! How are you?"

"I'm fine. How are you? Are you doing okay at home?"

"Hm! I'm okay and I'm being a good boy at home!"

By then, Sehun picked up Yitao and placed him on his lap, watching the young panda and his secret boyfriend talk on the phone.

"Auntie are you coming over soon? And uncle Yixing too?"

"Huh?"

"Are you coming to live with us? I miss auntie and uncle a lot…" Yitao said with sadness in his voice, that it broke Luhan's heart; he didn't like that tone, but he couldn't lie to the young panda like that. As much as he wanted to come and be with Sehun, he just can't leave his work like that, let alone leave his and his brothers' father.

"I don't know Yitao…someday I will."

"When will that be?"

"I…I don't know. But someday…okay?"

Yitao puffed his cheeks. "Okay."

"Hm…may I talk to your uncle Sehun please?"

"Uncle," Yitao turned around and handed Sehun his cell phone. "Auntie wants to talk to you."

"Okay, thank you."

Yitao hopped off Sehun's lap, making his way to the mansion. Once Yitao closed the sliding door, Sehun resumed in talking with Luhan.

"Yitao is adorable huh?"

He heard the other chuckle. "Yes he is. Its strange how he and Tao look a like."

"I don't find it as strange…I find it," The gardener hummed a bit, peaking in the kitchen where Tao was carrying Yitao in his arms, laughing. "…I find it, cute."

Luhan gave a slight chuckle. "But I'm cuter right? Way cuter than Tao and Yitao combined?"

Sehun grinned. "Of course. Way cuter."

--- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) ---

Kris slowly opened his eyes from his nap. He stretched a bit, laying his arm over his eyes. 'Bathroom.' He closed his eyes and slowly got up, wobbling his way to the bathroom. Once he did his business, he opened the door, heading back to bed. 'Hm, I'm feeling a bit better.' He stopped in his tracks when he saw Tao sitting on his chair and leaning over on the bed side.

'Is he sleeping?' Kris made his way over to where Tao was sleeping. 'Oh, he is sleeping. He is going to get back pain for sleeping in such a position though.'

Being careful not to wake the other, he lifted the Panda and placed him on his bed. He heard Tao whine a bit, making him softly chuckle. He placed the chair back to his drafting desk and made his way back to his bed. Carefully, he laid beside him, taking in the Panda's cute features.

Tao let out a cute sneeze; he whined a bit, rubbing his nose with the end of his sleeve. Kris did his best not to laugh, instead, he continued to watch the other.

The Panda turned so that he was on his side, facing Kris. The Dragon felt his cheeks burn; he held his breath when Tao was trying to find a pillow of some sort to support his head. Instead, Tao scooted closer to Kris, thinking he was a pillow; he grabbed onto his arm, assuming that it was one of Kris' long pillow.

'Okay, calm down. Calm down.' Kris repeated in his mind. 'Tao is asleep…oh jeez! Oh jeez…oh jeez!' He felt Tao snuggled closer to him and the more he couldn't handle it; his heart was beating fast and he could feel himself getting a little sweaty.

Tao mumbled a bit, but Kris wasn't able to decode what he was saying. He shook it off and waited for Tao to stop moving a bit; once he was still, he placed his chin on top of Tao's head.

'This is nice…even if Tao is still with him.' He sighed. 'Aaron is lucky to have him. To hold him close like this every night. I love you Tao...so much…why am I so slow in acknowledging it.' He lifted his head a bit to look at Tao's face; with his free hand, he placed his hand on Tao's cheek. 'This is probably the only chance I can be with him…I'm sure Xiumin or someone told Tao that I was sick…probably he felt bad. He came all this way to check up on me…' He laid his chin back on Tao's head. 'I wish you could stay forever…I wish I could've realized it earlier.' With that, he slowly closed his eyes and drifted off to sleep with Tao in his arms.

--- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) ---

"Yitao, can you bring this to your father's room? I don't where Tao is." Xiumin asked, in which Yitao nodded his head with glee. "Careful okay."

"I will." Yitao carefully took the tray from Xiumin's hands and made his way up the stairs to his father's room. The young panda wanted to knock, but the younger thought it would be okay not to. Carefully, he opened the door gently as possible; he saw that his father and his 'mother' were sleeping, now with Kris holding onto Tao, as if he didn't want him to escape from his grasp.

'Oh.' Yitao placed the tray on one of his father's desks  and made his way over to the bed. 'I wanna sleep with mommy too.' Yitao puffed his cheeks; he climbed on the bed, trying to figure out where he could situate himself. He saw a little space between the two; he gently lifted his father's arm and went under, snuggling close to Tao. He placed his father's arm back where it was. 'There!' He beamed and slowly, drifted to sleep.

--- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) ---

Tao yawned and slowly blinked a bit. 'Hm? Bed?' He felt the soft blankets and realized that he was on a bed. He looked up and saw that across from his was Kris and Yitao, situated between them, still sleeping. 'H-how did I get in the bed?' Tao glanced at Yitao, sleeping peacefully; he smiled a bit and started to the young panda's cheek. Yitao leaned into the touch, snuggling close to the hand.

'Ah, so cute.'

By then, Kris turned to lay on his back; he stretched a bit before turning his head to the side, facing Tao. He slowly opened his eyes, only to have Tao staring right back at him.

"Tao" He said softly as he tried to get up from the bed.

"N-no. Don't get up." Tao got up from the bed. "You need to rest more." He leaned over and picked up the young panda, carrying him in his arms. He was going to leave, but was interrupted by Kris' voice.

"I need to talk to you."

Tao felt his heart beat. "When you are well…we will talk." He smiled. "I promise." With that, he left with Yitao.

Kris sighed and flopped back on the bed. 'Now, how should I confront him?'

--- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) ---

After a few days, Kris was back to his healthy self, but still has not confront Tao about why he was here. He wanted to know, but at the same time, he was scared to know the truth. What if Tao was only here until he got better. Now that he is better, he feared that Tao might be going back home.

"Boss," Kris looked up from his cup of juice to stare back at Sehun. "Are you going to shave off that…that thing on your face." He shivered. "It is starting to gross me out a bit. Besides," He leaned closer to Kris, making him lean back a bit. "I don't think Tao would want kiss your face if you have that on."

Kris started to heat up. "What are you talking about? I happen to think that growing facial hair makes me more mature than I already am. Second, why would Tao kiss me anyway? He is still with Aaron…I for sure know that Tao would not cheat on him."

Sehun mentally rolled his eyes. He was going to say something, only to have Tao walk in with Xiumin.

"You still have that?" Xiumin pointed at Kris' jawline. "Gross…when are you going to shave that?" He squinted a bit, making Tao chuckle.

"You too?" Kris rubbed his jawline. "I'm starting to like it."

Sehun huffed before turning to Tao. "What do you think Tao? Do you like it?"

"U-um." The Panda thought for a bit. Sure, it was starting to look good on him, but he still liked the clean shaven Kris more. "I-I kinda liked when you were clean shaven."

"See! Even Tao agrees." Sehun patted his back. An idea formed in his head and he smirked a bit. "Why doesn't Tao shave it off for you?"

"Ha?!" The Dragon and the Panda said in unison.

"I think I can do it myself Se --"

"No way! You are just getting well. What if…what if…uh, let your hand slip and cut yourself?" Xiumin could only hold in his laugh. Whatever the gardener is trying to say, sounded very stupid.

"Actually," Tao started. "I could do it for you…I don't mind" He shifted a bit. "Besides, I promised that once you are well, we can talk." He glanced at Sehun and Xiumin. "P-privately."

Kris could feel his heart beat. He nodded and stood up from the kitchen table. "W-well can start now."

Tao nodded and started to exit the kitchen with Kris at tow. Sehun nudged the chef, smiling like an idiot.

"Ah, talking huh? Privately."

"You are weird." Xiumin chuckled.

--- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) ---

Tao opened the doors to Kris' room, letting him in first. Just like the taller, his heart was beating fast. He was hoping that the other would finally say those words again. That he loved him. If Kris is able to say those words to him, he can return those feelings and they will be able to be couple. A good looking one at that.

"S-so, uh, where shall we do this?"

"Um, bathroom?" Kris said as if was the most obvious thing in the world. Tao mentally smacked his head and nodded, with a blush on.

"R-right." The Panda followed Kris to the bathroom. He got all the essential things that needed for shaving, handing it to Tao. Kris left the bathroom to get a chair; he sat down in front of Tao since he was too tall.

"Okay," Tao took the shaving cream and put enough on his hand. "This is feels weird." Tao scrunched his nose. He never really had to shave his face; he was hairless after all, but he managed to watch his two older brothers since they grew facial hair at one point. He knelt down, situated himself between Kris' legs, making the older of the two blush at the position he was in. He literally had to spread is legs enough for the Panda to scoot in close.

'Okay, calm down, calm down, calm down.' Kris chanted in his head.

Kris' thoughts were broken when he heard Tao chuckle. "Whats so funny?"

"This feels weird." He chuckled as he played with the shaving cream. "Sorry, I'll apply it now." Tao leaned over and started to coat Kris' face with the shaving cream. Again, he started to chuckle. "Okay, this also feels weird. Your stubbles are scratching my hand." He chuckled again.

"S-sorry."

"Hm." Tao shook his head. "It's fine." Once he placed a good coat of shaving cream he laughed once again. Kris now looked like he was santa claus. He couldn't control his laugher than he laid his head on Kris' chest. As he continued to let out a laugh, while Kris could feel his heart beating fast.

"Okay, okay, sorry. I'm done." Tao calmed himself. "Okay." He grabbed the shaver and dipped it in water. 'Hope I'm doing his right.'

He started to shave Kris' stubbles; he was quiet among them as Tao continued his work. He was hoping to talk, but neither of them knew how to start it. Once Tao was done, he stood up and started to clean Kris' face with a towel. "There!" Tao smiled. "All done." He turned to wash his hands; he dried them off and grabbed moisturizer bottle. "Here, apply this so it will be smooth."

Kris nodded and started to massage his face.

"Now," Tao leaned close to Kris, making his eyes widen. "Lemme see if I missed any spots." Carefully, inspecting his face,  Kris stared at the other's features. A slight blush was forming on his cheeks. All Kris could think of was to lean in to give just a chaste kiss on Tao's lips. That was all, but having Aaron pop in his mind, forced him to go against it. He didn't want to break such a relationship; he wanted Tao to be happy and still, he believes that Aaron was that source of happiness for Tao.

"You are good." Tao said with a smile. "Clean and smooth." He took a step back and held out his hand for Kris to grab. The Dragon took hold of it and stood up. "Um, n-now we can talk." Tao said with soft voice.

"Sure." Kris nodded as he picked up the chair, heading towards the bedroom with Tao at tow. Once Kris placed the chair back where it was suppose to, he sat on the bed, patting a seat next to him. Tao nodded and sat next to him; it was silent for a bit before Kris spoke.

"I'm sorry Tao…for everything that I did back in China…I really am."

Tao hummed in response. "Its okay…really. You didn't hurt me…so, its okay."

"But its not. Even though it is in the past…I can't help, but feel sick about it." He let out a shaky breath. "I hope that you can forgive me."

Tao smiled. "I do forgive you. Like I said…you didn't hurt me." He placed his hand on top of Kris', assuring him that he has forgiven him.

Kris smiled; he liked the feeling of Tao's hand on top of his. "So, um, why are you here?"

"Hm?"

"Here in Korea…why are you here? Did Xiumin call you or something?"

"Hm." Tao shook his head. "No…I can here on my own."

'By himself…?' "Why?"

"Um, just because…I felt that I should be here."

"T-then what about…Aaron?"

Tao bit his lip. "I…I, um, broke up with him."

"What?" Kris looked at Tao. "Why? He didn't hurt you did he?"

"He --"

"Because if he did Tao, I swear --"

"He didn't! I swear he didn't hurt me. That isn't the reason why I broke up with him. It was a different reason."

"Oh…" Kris was curious as to what made Tao break up with Aaron; he wanted to ask, but thought it was too much to do so.

"Yeah." Tao sighed. "So…um, I was wondering…if I could have my job back."

"Job?"

"Nanny? I was wondering if I could have it back…and um, move back here."

"Oh course! I mean, o-of course." Kris cleared his throat. He was more than ecstatic to have the Panda come back to Korea, living in his home. Tao smiled at Kris' joyfulness.

"U-um, Tao."

The Panda turned to face the other; his heart began to beat. 'Is this it? Is he going to tell me?!'

"Welcome back."

"Eh?" Tao blinked at the other. "I-I'm sorry…what was that?"

"Welcome back." He leaned over and gave Tao a hug. The other was utterly disappointed that Kris didn't say what he was hoping for, but figured that he will eventually.

"Um, I'll go back and check up on Yitao." Tao pulled away from the hug and stood up. "I'll talk to you later okay." With that, he rushed to the door and exited out.

Once the door closed, Kris sighed a bit. 'So, they are broken up…' His eyes widen. 'This must be a sign…this is probably my second chance! This time, I can win Tao over!' He nodded to himself. "I just need to find a perfect way to do it."

--- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) ---

It's been weeks, and Kris was still finding a perfect way to ask Tao out, but it just seem that obstacles were in his way. Sehun would pop in at the most wrong times, Xiumin would ask Tao for help, or Baekhyun would call Tao to talk. Even Yitao would want Tao to play with him, leaving Kris no chance to talk and ask Tao privately. However, he had chance to do so, but his nerves got to him and instead of asking, he completely made a fool out of himself.

"You okay?" Kris lifted his head to see Chanyeol close the sliding door to the kitchen. He stepped out to the patio to where Kris was. He gave him a glass of lemonade in which Kris gladly accepted. "You look…grumpy."

"Hm." He whined. "People…are in the way."

Chanyeol couldn't help, but chuckle. "Who?"

"Everyone! Minus you and Chen." He lifted his head fully. "I want to ask Tao out…because he broke up with Aaron…I think this my second chance Chanyeol. But every time I approach Tao, either someone interrupts or I break down to nerves." He let out a frustrated sigh.

"Calm down Boss…I'm sure your…moment will come." He chuckled; he started to feel bad for his Boss. Kris was seriously in a pickle. Chanyeol knew that Tao strictly said not to help Kris if ever he had trouble, but he decided to help his Boss anyway. "Why don't you write a note?"

"A note? That seems…I dunno, unmannerly?"

"No, I meant like…write a note to Tao, but let Yitao be the little delivery boy. Its like primary school…or junior high all over again. It's cute don't you think?"

Kris pondered a bit. 'That sounds like a good idea.' "Yeah, that does sound good. I think I'll do that!"

Chanyeol smiled. "Thats the spirit."

"So, um, how is the adoption thing going?"

"Actually," Chanyeol shifted in his seat. "We got a approved."

Kris beamed. "No way! Congratulations! When do I get to meet your kid?"

"Soon…actually," He checked his watch. "I have to go pick him or her up. Baekhyun is coming over by the way."

"He isn't going with you?"

"Hm." Chanyeol shook his head. "It's a surprised. They called our apartment when Baekhyun was at work, so he doesn't know yet…so when he comes over, don't tell him anything okay."

"Don't worry. Lips are sealed." Kris patted Chanyeol on the back. "I'm happy for you guys. Are you going to name him or her?"

"No…we aren't getting a baby. The adoption agency gives us a child once they approved our home environment, financial status, and such. Or maybe we are getting a baby…I dunno, but if the child already has a name, Baekhyun and I already agreed that we keep the name."

"I see. I can't wait to see him or her!"

Chanyeol chuckled. "Yeah, well, I'll see you later." With that, he stood up and walked back to the kitchen.

"How cute." Kris sighed. 'I wonder if the child is Yitao's age.'

--- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) ---

Everyone was in the living room, just having a cup of tea and cookies.

"I wonder what Chanyeol is so excited about." Baekhyun said as he placed his cup on the glass table. "I don't even know why I'm here to be honest." He glanced at Kris, who tried his best to hold his composure. "Kris, sorry if I am intruding."

"No worries." Kris assured him.

Soon, the door bell rang; immediately Kris stood up before Xiumin could reach for the door. Once he opened the door, he smiled.

"Baekhyun, Chanyeol is here."

"Hm?" Baekhyun turned his head, but quickly widen his eyes. Chanyeol approached the group, holding onto a small boy who was staring at everyone in the room. He had wavy hair, which was strangely like Chanyeol's, but his eyes weren't big as his; more of like Baekhyun's. The child looked as if he was really a product of the two. Baekhyun stood up from the couch. "W-who is that?"

"He is our child." Chanyeol smiled. "We got approved." He placed the little boy down, but continued to hold onto Chanyeol's hand. He stared at everyone, but his eyes went straight to Baekhyun.

"Is that mama?" He asked Chanyeol, in which he nodded. The small boy beamed and ran towards Baekhyun, hugging his legs in the process. "Hi mama! My name is Baekyeol and I'm four!"

"Whoa!" Chen and Sehun said in unison, standing up from up from the couch.

"Did he say Baekyeol?" Sehun asked.

"Baekyeol…as in 'Baek' from Baekhyun and 'Yeol' from Chanyeol?" Chen asked. Chanyeol simply nodded at the other chauffeur. "Do you not hear it? Baekyeol? Baek…and Yeol?"

"Yeah, thats his name." Chanyeol said. "What are you getting at?" He asked, being confused at what Chen was trying to say.

"His name is…" Chen sighed. "Nevermind." He turned to Sehun, whispering if understood where he was going with, in which Sehun shook his head.

Baekhyun stood there, feeling a wave of emotions flow through him. Soon, he started to feel small tears flow down his face. Baekyeol's smile started to fade.

"Mama, why are you sad?"

Baekhyun shook his head and knelt down to be at the same level as the small boy in front of him. "I'm not sad." He chuckled. "I'm just so happy." He pulled the small boy to a hug. "This is a dream come true."

Baekyeol smiled and hugged his new mother back. Tao smiled; he knew his best friend was feeling anxious since he nor Chanyeol haven't heard from the agency. He was starting to fear that they weren't approved. The Panda was just glad that they did get approved and now they were able to start a new chapter in their lives.

"Mommy, who is that?" Tao looked down at the Yitao, who tugged his hand.

"That is uncle Chanyeol and uncle --"

"Auntie."

"Auntie?"

"Hm." Yitao smiled. "Auntie Baekhyun because Auntie is really pretty too. Same for auntie Xiumin…I need more aunties mommy."

Tao chuckled. "Okay then…ah, that boy over there is auntie Baekhyun and uncle Chanyeol's son. You have a new playmate."

"Oh," Yitao looked over Baekyeol, who was smiling brightly at everyone around him. Soon, his gaze landed on Yitao, who jumped a bit.

"Do you want to say hi?"

"Um…" Yitao shook his head, but Tao insisted.

"Lets just say hi okay?" Tao took Yitao's hand and led him towards where Baekyeol was. "Hello Baekyeol." Tao knelt down to be at the same height as the other. "My name is Tao."

Deep down, Yitao was feeling a little bit jealous that Tao was putting a lot of attention on Baekyeol. He pursed his lips when he saw smaller giving Tao a hug.

Baekyeol looked over behind Tao to see Yitao having a pout on his face. 'Oh, maybe he needs a hug!' He smiled and walked over to Yitao. "Hello! I'm Baekyeol!" He said, looking up at the other; compared to Yitao, he was small, but it didn't really bother him.

"Um…hi." Yitao said with a soft voice. Everyone around them cooed at the two. Baekyeol tilted his head at the taller.

"Whats your name?"

"Yi-Yitao."

"Oh," Baekyeol nodded. "I like you." He smiled cutely at the other, who only responded with a blush.

Unsure what to say, Yitao looked up at his 'mother' for help, but Tao could only adore what Baekyeol said.

"Well, lets celebrate!" Xiumin said, clapping his hands together. "Welcoming Baekyeol to the family!"

Everyone cheered; Baekhyun bent down and picked up Baekyeol in his arms. The small boy could only smile; he was happy to have a loving family now and seeing an adorable panda boy as well. He wrapped his arms around Baekhyun's neck and snuggled against the crook of his neck.

"I love you mama. And papa too." Baekyeol said as he pulled back.

--- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) ---

Days later, Baekyeol would always come to Kris' mansion to play with Yitao. However, the young panda was finding his new playmate a little to clingy with him. The two sat in front of the mansion's steps with the door open, to let in a nice breeze in.

Since it was a very hot day, the two ate some ice cream, made my Xiumin himself.

"Yitao hyung." Baekyeol scooped up some of his ice cream. "Try some!"

Yitao glanced over and scrunched up his nose. "No thanks." He motioned his cup. "I have some left."

Baekyeol pouted a bit. "B-but, its good. Mine is a different flavor than yours!!"

"No, Baekyeol." Yitao huffed. Baekyeol was starting to annoy him; he continued to eat his frozen treat while Baekyeol did the same. He froze a bit when he felt the smaller scoot closer to him.

"I like Yitao hyung a lot." He rubbed his head against Yitao's shoulder. The young panda could feel his heart beat at the younger's actions. "Do you like me?"

By then Kris was walking by to check up on the kids. He stopped once Baekyeol asked his son a question.

"Hm." Yitao pondered a bit. "No, you bother me too much." He said bluntly, making Baekyeol puff his cheeks.

'Wow Yitao.' Kris softly chuckle. 'That was mean.'

"You will like me one day!" He said with confidence. "I'll make sure of it!" Baekyeol stuck out his tongue. "One day you can I will get married like mama and papa!"

Yitao rolled his eyes. "Whatever."

Kris slowly smiled. He thought that innocent crushes were absolutely adorable, especially with children. He adored the fact that Baekyeol was determined to win his son's heart. 'Hm, I should be determined like Baekyeol…and he is only four years old!' He pondered a bit and soon, a plan started to form in his head.

"Ah, Yitao…Baekyeol."

The two children looked over their shoulders to see Kris leaning against the door. "Yes daddy?"

"I was wondering if…you can Baekyeol could help me with something."

Yitao nodded. "Sure. What is it?"

--- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) ---

Weeks later, Tao was helping Sehun with the garden, planting some new flowers for the summer.

"There!" Tao grinned as he planted the flower. "Is that okay?" He asked Sehun, in which he nodded.

"Perfect." He gave an a-okay sign. They continued to work until Sehun heard the sliding door open up. Yitao and Baekyeol came out with such adorable clothing.

Yitao came out with a black and white suit that seemed suitable for a wedding of some sort. He wore a white short sleeved shirt with a black and yellow tie, accompanied with a black vest and shorts that went to his knees; they were striped vertically with the color white as well as black dress shoes with black socks. As for a little fashion touch to complete it, he wore a black fedora hat.

As for Baekyeol, he came out with a white short sleeve shirt, a grey and white checkered vest with a tie that was the same pattern as the vest. He wore a dark grey shorts that were up to his mid-thigh, accompanied by grey socks that went up to his knees and black high boots. Instead of wearing a fedora hat, he wore a black sailor hat with the two ribbons flowing behind him.

Of course Sehun and Tao knew who made them due to the little dragon insignia on the left side of the vests. What made it so interesting was that they had were wearing angel wings that had a cloud like look and feel to it. To them, it looked like they were fashion styled angels.

The kids spotted the two and ran towards Tao smiling up at him.

"H-hello there." Tao smiled back at them as he patted each of them on the head. "Those are cute outfits you two have on."

"Thank you mommy." Yitao beamed. "We have a message for you."

"For me?"

"Hm!" Baekyeol smiled. "A message and we are little messengers!"

"Oh," Tao knelt down. "From who?"

By then, Sehun started taking pictures on his phone. 'I wanted to show Luhan this!!'

"Here." Yitao handed Tao a green envelope.  "And you have to reply right away."

"Okay." Tao chuckled, yet was slightly confused as to what was written. He started open it up and took out the letter written. He blushed a bit when he realized it was from Kris. Tao read the letter and felt his heart beat. Kris wanted to ask Tao out.

'Is this a dream?'

Kris wrote that ever since he found out that Tao was no longer with Aaron, he wanted to ask Tao out, but it was either that interruptions were made or that he was too nervous to do so. Instead, he asked Yitao and Baekyeol to be his little angel messengers.

Tao smiled a bit; he thought that it was absolutely adorable. 'But, I would rather have him ask me personally.'

"So, what is your reply mommy?"

"Hm." Tao folded up the letter. "Tell him…no."

"No?" Baekyeol asked, in which Tao nodded.

"Yup. Tell him to ask me in person okay."

"Okay." Yitao saluted his 'mother', with Baekyeol copying his actions.

"And, if he needs a little boost, give him this." Tao pecked both kids on the cheek. "Okay?"

"Okay!" They said in unison before running back to the mansion.

"What was the letter?" Sehun asked as he placed his cell phone back in his pockets.

"A little letter…from Kris. Asking me out."

"Whoa! Really? B-but you said no."

"Hm." Tao nodded. "I would like it if he asked me face to face."

--- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) ---

Kris was walking in his room, pacing back and forth feeling anxious what Tao's answer was going to be. He turned his head once he heard the door knock.

"Come in."

Once the door opened, Yitao's head popped in. "Daddy!"

"Hey guys…so what did mommy say?"

"Mommy said no!" Yitao said with a happy tone.

"N-no?"

"Yeah." Baekyeol nodded his head. "He said no."

"B-but…I…h-he --"

"He said that he would want you to ask him face to face." The smaller said. "And he told us to give you this." He motioned Kris to kneel down, in which he did. Both kids gave pecks on Kris' cheek, making him blush.

"Mommy gave us pecks on the cheek and told us to give you that. He said something about a little boost."

"I-is that so." Kris touched his cheeks. "Okay then…thanks guys for helping me." He smiled at the children.

"No problem!" The two replied in unison as they saluted. With that, they left Kris' room.

'Guess I have to ask him in person.'
