‘What is he- what is Kibum doing... here? Wait, Yoogeun is his nephew... Ahhh… Took you long enough, smart .' 

Jonghyun can slowly feel his confidence melting under the peircing chocolate coloured eyes of feline other; he for one never felt ashamed of his body in fact, he had always been pleased with the way he continues to take care of himself, going to the gym or going for a run, whenever his work has given him the chance to do so, and yet with Kibum right in front of him, it takes no longer than a few silent seconds, until his silly little insecurities get the better of him. 'I didn't work out today, or the day before that either; I must look like a slob'. But Jonghyun is more than aware, how stupid it is to let things so silly cloud his mind, it wasn't like he was trying to impress the blonde anyway.

Right in the high of his momentary agony, the elder had stepped in to speak; Sunhye had always been fond of saving him whenever the elder brunette was troubled.

" I'm sorry to disappoint you Jonghyun-ah, but the Samgaetang has been cooked especially for Minyoung-ssi." Sunhye informs the elder eyes still in a haze as he stared at the blonde younger, lips now tugging in a lazy smile. 

Kibum on the other hand, was rendered speechless. What on earth? All he wants is to live till his 80. Maybe have cute looking grandchildren, own a house in Daegu andyet here, is the oh-so-great Kim Jonghyun, with his built buddy bulging out from his dress shirt his tie seductively loose around his neck and shirt ed just enough to tease the younger. The freaking mole centered in between the elder's collar bone, is driving the little sanity the younger had left completely out of the window. Is living until his 80 so freaking hard?

And not only that, the blonde probably resembles a strawberry or a tomato because his face was shaded in the darkest red describable. The frilly apron making him look that much more humiliating in front of the elder.

Jonghyun's eyes couldn't decide where to look. The slender waist hugged by- ‘hey isn't that my pink frilly apron?’ or the blushing face of the shying other. 

"It s-smells... a-amazing. By the way. The food." Jonghyung doesn't understand why his tongue suddenly won't move, making him slur the compliment. The whole atmosphere went from chatty and chilled to weird and awkward. Yet the only woman in the kitchen just couldn't help but let the smile on her face widen.

Kibum doesn't know what to do and right now his cursing his lithe limbs that won't stop betraying him. "I-uh, w-welcome back, h-hyung. Dinner is just about to be served." Kibum sounds stupid and probably just plain retarded with the words drifting from his lips, yet every single syllable coming out from his mouth sounding so right and in place, just won't stop bugging him. 

"Yeah... Umm- well, I- I... should get change an-"

"Appa!" 

Jonghyun doesn't get to finish his sentence because Minyoung had already latched her small arms around his thighs, letting him break his gaze from the feline. 

"Appa, can you smell that? Ki-umma cooked our favourite. Isn't that so nice of him and your frilly apron looks so pretty on Umma." Minyoung cries as she cranes her head to face the elder who nodded, line of vision solely aimed at the dimpled feline. 

"It's very nice of him... Kibum-ah thank you." Jonghyun agrees with his daughter before turning to face the blonde other who's body seemed to freeze in embarrassment.

"I-It's nothing much. I hope I made it nicely though." Kibum says sending a haste smile at the father and daughter.

"Well- uhh... I'll go and get change then." And to be honest Jonghyun internally wants to slap himself for being so awkward. 'It’s your house. You can change right in front of them if you want to and they'll have no say about it.' But being in the presences of the feline makes his ego deplete into nothing.

Kibum couldn't thank the higher beings anymore. He'll suffer from a nose bleed if Jonghyun doesn't change any time soon. The blonde finally releases the breath he didn't even know he was holding in as the elder bid his farewell, taking Minyoung along with him.

"Kibum-ah, are you okay?" 

Because Kibum doesn't realise how pinks his cheeks had gone and how his body still resembles one of a statue; frozen still facing the door. 

"Uh- yeah, I'm fine noona." He offers her a smile to let her know he was all okay. She smiles back at him and then Kibum awkwardly makes his way back to the deliciously smelling Samgaetang. He had just found out that, the meal he had been asked to make was the Kim's favourite meal.

"It smells really good Kibum. I definitely think Jonghyun and Minyoung will loved it." the lady compliments because the aroma of the kitchen just smells much more heavenly. Kibum smiles, "I do hope so, I feel like my food is getting judged by a food critic." he jokes, even though he did feel like it really was. He just hopes that he passes. 

With the food and other side dishes ready. Kibum once again nicely offers to lay out the table for the elder. Sunhye thanks him before helping the younger to do so. 

On the other hand the four boys and Minyoung are happily playing in the living room all mouths watering at the lovely aroma of delicious food emitting from the Kitchen. 

Jonghyun's smile couldn't get any wider. The way Minyoung laughed and played with the younger boy was divine. Jonghyun realises that Minyoung had been missing out and he couldn't help but blame himself. 'I guess happiness couldn't be bought.'

"Appa? Can Yoogeun oppa come round again to play tomorrow, please?" Minyoung pleades with a huge pout plastered onto her lips Jonghyun could only nod. "Of course he can, I haven't got work tomorrow so we can all play together." Jonghyun adds with a smile making the grin on both the younger's face widen in delight. 

"Jonghyun-appa, can my hyung-umma come and play as well?" Yoogeun asks in a plea and the elder's eyes glisten in delight at the word 'appa' coming from the boy. Yoogeun had asked shyly if he was okay being called appa and the elder couldn't say 'no'. The younger had the same big brown eyes as his daughter and Jonghyun is a big softy who loved the thought of having a son. 

"Why not Yoogeun-ah? The more the merrier! Although I think is best to ask permission from your hyung, first." Jonghyun says to the younger carefully.

"I will, Jonghyun appa. Hyung-umma will definitely say yes.” With that the two younger cheer in celebration. No one would even thought that the two had only met this morning because the bond they had between them can rival even the strongest bonds of siblings. 

Jinki however was just utterly delighted to see his dongseang happy. Along with the short tempered bundle of joy that goes by the name of Minyoung. With work in the office piling up it's proven to be difficult for the young father to come home and play with his daughter. Because of that Jinki has decided to put it all to himself to take over a large fraction of Jonghyun's work hours. 

As a big brother all Jinki wants is for the other to be happy. But with their father around being happy is a something the head of the Kim's didn't believe in.

However with their father demanding for the Jonghyun's presence in every important meeting he knew something life changing would take place sooner or later. Jinki hopes and prays that it is for the better for his younger brother. 

Although Jinki's visit wasn't planned, the elder came to seek advice from the other. Yet with a whole gathering he was disappointed to say that it was best to leave it until they were alone in a peaceful atmosphere. 

Jinki as distant as he is from the younger man he knew everything there is to know about the brunette. He just wishes that maybe in time the younger would realise it and tell him everything that's bothering him and still is.

All five lounged in the living room playing charades and go fish. The laughter that had been accumulating in the room was interrupted by a sound of voice coughing. All 5 pairs of eyes looked at the direction of the said voice. 

Minho chuckles because it wasn't every day that his eyes were able to feast on the shy looking, flushed face demeanour of the blonde older. Eyes gazing at the ground while long fingers laced one another. Minho makes a mental note to inform his boyfriend of the said scene in front of him. 

"Umm- dinner is ready." the blonde says, voice so unnaturally small; almost whisper like. 

The two younger had already abandoned their toys and blankets on the floor as they both race towards Kibum. In return he lent both hands out for the two to take.

Kibum smiles as the two children sing and celebrate as they ran towards him. "You two must be so hungry." he says as both children got hold of his slim hands. They already are swaying them side to side. "We really are!" The two say in unison, dragging the elder back to the kitchen where Sunhye is currently laying out the finally pieces of cutleries. 

Jinki hides the sly smile (a smirk if you will) behind his hands at the scene of his half sane half drooling brother, who he shocks out of trance. "Better get going, you know how much Sunhye noona hates waiting." He says as he brings the younger into a brotherly hug bringing him up. They walk together to the kitchen along with Minho who joined into the brotherly hug.

Jonghyun didn't know if his eyes were playing with him or if his mind has just hit a breaking point because, damn.

Damn. 

Kibum was utterly beautiful- No.

He can't. 

He promised her he would never… he promised himself he would never dare too. 

Stupid Kibum. 

Stupid Kibum with the nice long legs that he likes, the small waist that he longs for and the adorable flush of the cheeks he couldn't help but find utterly admirable. 

Damn you, Kibum. 

~*~*~*~*~*~*~

As the three men get into the kitchen the aroma of wonderfully cooked dishes invade all their senses.

"Remind me to come here more often, Jonghyun-ah." Jinki state as he takes a sniff of the aroma filled room. Jonghyun could only nod, making his way to the grand oval shaped dining table where a feast was laid out for them/ "Appa, hurry! I want to eat." the youngest of the lot says with a cute pout as she gestures the other to hurry.

Jonghyun sits down in his place followed by the other two sitting in theirs, while Sunhye and Kibum carried on preparing the table. 

Jonghyun wants to smack and hit and punch himself, for being distracted but what could he do? It's not every day that he finds and fine looking creature cooking and taking care of him and his daughter.

As bad as it sounds, the chocolate haired brunette missed it. Being looked after. 

"Noona, go and take a seat, I'll do that for you." Kibum smiles as he takes the jug of juice from the older lady's small hands. "Thank you, Kibum-ah." She doesn't oppose because of reasons. Important reasons.

Kibum hesitates because he looks far too awkward and tense, but decides that he was only making it worst for acting so... so shy. He takes the elder's glass and he doesn't miss it. 

He wish he could of, he cursed the elder for holding the damned glass because the electric shivers that was sent down his spine and the twist and churns of his stomach. It is caused by the fraction of the elder's warm skin touching his own. 

"I-I'll do it for you." The younger offers in a whisper as he pours a generous amount of the beverage onto the elder's glass. "Thank you." Jonghyun doesn't realise the five pairs of eyes sending knowing stares at each other before all landing back to the elder, who took far too long to respond.

Minyoung being utterly happy is a big understatement. The girl was elated, delighted because everything is fitting like her favourite puzzle pieces and she just hopes that neither tries to object. 

Kibum finishes pouring each people a glass of juice before being ushered by Minyoung to take a seat. 

With everyone already seated. Jonghyun sits at the top being the head of the house. The one at the right of him being his daughter, with Key, Yoogeun and Sunhye following the younger girl, and to the left of him sat the older of the Kim siblings followed by Minho. 

"Wow, looking at all of this foods my mouth is already watering. So lets eat and thank you Sunhye noona and Kibum-ssi for making such a feast." The head of the house says with a bright smile before looking at the blonde sitting at his far right, smiling even wider at the exchange of nods. 

"Mmm~~ This looks really good umma." Minyoung praises looking up at the blonde beside her, who shook his head. "Sunhye noona made most of the dishes, sweetie but thank you." He smiles that contagious smile. "What would you want to eat, Mi?"

Jonghyun, Minho and Jinki can see it. The twinkle in the younger's eyes that no one till this day had ever witness, as she cranes her head, a finger tapping on her lips. "I want the Samgaetang, umma!" But out of the 3, Jonghyun feels that stabbing pain the most. 

He thought he had given the younger everything. A good home, most of his time and all his love but, the looks in his daughter’s eyes tell him that it wasn't enough. 

He starts to questions if he's enough, if all these years had he only been doing what he thought was enough. 

But the thought soon vanishes because the dimpled smile and the loving gaze Minyoung shows him. It reassures him that he was doing everything perfectly. That he was indeed enough. 

"Daddy, you want this too, don't you?" He pushes the insecurities away, showing his killer smile, nodding toward his daughter who giggles. 

Kibum envies their close relationship and he prays that someday he too could experience a bond like theirs. "Wait, darling let umma help you." He stands up to place a spoon full of the said dish onto the young girl’s plate who squeals in delight.

He gives a hesitant look to the elder, asking if he too wanted some. Kibum soon regrets because with the smile offered to him he finds himself gripping the bowl tighter, frightened of dropping it. "Thank you, it smells great." the elder says afterwards as he intakes a waft of the chicken soup dish as the blonde place a good amount of the dish into the elder's plate. 

Minho pouts because the jealousy of not having his lover do that for him starts bubbling in his stomach. Jinki wants to laugh at his brother’s obvious fondness, something he noted to update Jessica in. 

After filling both of the plates of the two youngest with delicious food, Kibum sits back down in his seat starting to fill his own. The rest of the group had already picked and filled their plates.

Everybody in the table starts exchanging widen eyes and vigorous nods of the head as they compliments both cooks. Kibum felt that his world just might stop as he finds the head of the table taking his first bite of his said favourite dish. 

'Please like it, please like it, please like it.'   

He doesn't know why that particular chant like mantra was singing in his head but along with the crossed fingers hidden beneath the table. The blonde had never wanted anything more but want the older to like his cooking. 

Kibum doesn't understand the need for such a poker-like expression on the elder. It makes it all the more harder for the younger to deduce anything from the expression of him. 

But the way the elder's eyes soon widen and his nose to flare. The younger realises that maybe it was enough, that what he did was enough. 

"This... This is amazing. I haven't tasted anything so delicious in my life I-" 

The elder was interrupted by a loud humph.

"Well, I apparently haven't been feeding all of you delicious things." the lady says feigning offended but chuckling soon afterwards as the whole group also roar into laughter filling the room along with the scent of the mouth-watering food. 

The dinner on the whole ends on a good note, everybody is talking and socialising. Kibum also learns more about Jonghyun his not so secret, secret crush. 

Jinki or as he was asked to be called Onew, was the brunette's 1 year older brother. He is a business man who worked alongside the other at their father's company. Sweet and quiet, clumsy but overall, his character even Kibum refused to hate. 

Kibum also asks a lot of questions during the dinner as well as answering a few. However Minho couldn't help the smirk that would invade his lips whenever a shy and timid Kibum would reply. Especially to the questions asked by the head of the house.

You're too obvious to, hyung. 

As the dinner concludes, everyone had said their thanks both to Kibum and Sunhye, who in return told them that it was their pleasure. 

As the two younger got off the table, both are stopped by the blonde feline. he tells them not to play so soon after having such a meal. Both pouted and sighed, none the less complying with the wishes of the elder who bent down straightening wrinkled clothes. Just like what a mother would do, a sight Jonghyun didn't miss. 

Jonghyun admits to an extent how seeing Kibum had indeed opened his eyes. To the fact of finding a mother for Minyoung that is. Yet he couldn't help but admire the care and love that glazed the younger's eyes. 

Both Kibum and Sunhye offer to clean afterwards which Jonghyun opposes strongly. The stubbornness of the two soon over powered his demands, leaving the two alone to carry on with the chores as he joins the others in the front room. 

As all of the remaining five found their way to the spacious living room, Minho is the first of all to excuse himself. Telling them how there is homework still needing to be completed. Though in reality, Jonghyun knows that the other was going to stay up late again to talk to his lover.

Jinki on the other hand stays, however not for too long as the elder’s company phone had starts vibrating.

"Jonghyun-ah, I have to go. My secretary just informed me how there are a few more reports that needs looking over and signing." The elder says reluctantly as he stands up. 

The pout that soon invade the younger's lips made the other chuckle. "I'll see you soon at the office, dongsaengie." The elder cooed ruffling the hair of the pouting other. Jonghyun isn't the type who plays hard to get. If he's sad he'll show. If he's happy he'll show it and right now his disappointed. Not often would he see his brother outside of work. 

"Arraso, hyung. Take care and come and visit soon." Jonghyun says as he carries his daughter along with the Yooguen as they all wave the other goodbye.

Minyoung cranes her head towards the elder, signalling him to pick her up which he soon did. "Come again soon ontokki appa, umma will make you delicious chicken." The young girl offers as she hugs her uncle. Jinki smiles because of his niece's so obvious plan. 

"When they're meant to be, they're meant to be. But never force someone into liking someone they don't, arrachi?" Jinki warns because it really doesn't take a lot of brains to figure out what the younger was doing. That in itself made the younger nod into his neck. "I promise I won't tokki appa." Minyoung says. She isn't surprised that her uncle had caught on so quickly. Sometimes she can't help but ask if her dad was just playing clueless or utterly naive. 

Jinki places Minyoung down before taking the slightly older boy into his embrace. "It was lovely meeting you, Yoogeun-ah. I hope you continue to play and take care of our little princess, neh?" Jinki says to the younger because in the span of 2 and half hours his heart was captured by the charm of the said little boy. 

"It was lovely to meet you too, Onew hyung. I hope we can play again soon." With that the elder was being waved off to the patio where a car and driver was already waiting for him. 

As Jonghyun closes the door, he turns his attention towards the two souls grinning ear to ear at each other. "Well, since Minho is being a kill joy, with his important 'homework', do you two still have a game in mind?" He asks because even at the adult age, his heart was still like those of a 6 year old. He loves to play pranks and games. 

Minyoung nods running towards her appa before giving him a light smack of the hand to the leg. "You're it!" She says in a chuckle before running away to a different direction from the slightly older boy who already seemed to know about the game. 

Jonghyun smirks, he likes playing. He likes to play a lot. 

Kibum on the other hand had just finished helping the lady take all the plates into a larger than most sink. "Noona, should I help you with the dishes?" Kibum asks sincerely hoping for the other to say yes. "You've helped enough today, Kibum-ah. Thank you but why don't you go and talk to Jonghyun and Jinki?" Kibum doesn't forget how to blush at the mention of the brunette's name. "But call me if you need help, noona." The feline quickly replies making the elder chuckle before shooing him away with soapy hands. 

Meanwhile inside the rather large and spacious living room tired out Jonghyun had stopped to lean over the white leather sofa, catching his breath. 

He underestimates, boy did he underestimate a lot. He thought playing a game so easy as 'Tag' was well... easy. But he forgets the fact that even with a fit body of a 24 year old, a mind and energy of two 6 year olds is a comparable difference.  But the elder carries on because this was time Minyoung's laughter seemed to fill the while house alongside of Yoogeun. The boy who had also captured his heart with undeniable charm. 

Minyoung is having the time of her life. However the game isn't just picked at random or a spar of the moment. It was chosen for the sake of her fool proof plan. 

Yoogeun since the time they had left the car had asked the younger to continue on with accident that happened between the young dad and blonde feline. "Shouldn't you just see it for yourselve oppa." She says and with that a new mission was born a mission Minyoung thought was as easy as one two three. 

That's is why the two had met right in front of the kitchen door, jiggling and giggling as they both edge the elder to come after them. "Appa are you tired? Come and catch me!" Minyoung cries pulling a mehrong at her father who winces. 

And Jonghyun couldn't let this slide. His pride in particular couldn't let this slide and with the he surprise both of the younger as he came charging at full speed towards them. Hands wide open as if scooping up both children into his embrace, closing his eyes partially. 

Minyoung gives the signal to the young boy nods when of familiar pair of foot-steps neared the door. 

With that both the younger jump at either side of the door. 

"Mianhe, appa," The little girl whispers. 

One, 

Kibum shuffles his way trying to undo the apron that hugs him.

Two, 

Steps closer head leant forward as hands tried to undo the seemingly difficult knot.

Three.

"Mianhe, hyung-umma." The little boy whispers. 

Kibum finally unties the knot as he cranes his head to the front to- 

"Arhhhhhhhhhhhhh~" a girlish scream echoed through the room. Lithe cream arms encircling towards a muscled neck and shoulders as flushed, scared face his themselves at the nooks of the neck. "Gotcha!"

With the sound echoing clearly in his ears, does he only realise how it wasn't Minyoung nor Yoogeun the person he had lifted in his arms. 

Well, no Sherlock. 

Kibum's heart convulses threatening to jump out of his ribcage. Not only did he just revive the fright of his life. He is now currently being held up by the male whose head was now buried in his neck and his arms around him like his life depended on it. 

Jonghyun is silently praying that the other could not hear his unhealthy beating heart. The elder feels torn and scared because the way the other felt in his arms. It feels so right that he honestly did question if the younger was made to be there. 

Kibum was so soft almost fragile in his arms and he smelt like peaches and apples and Jonghyun doesn't hesitate to sniff the others blonde locks. 

"C-Can... you please p-put me down now?" The feline whispers almost inaudibly, making the elder's heart rate dramatically increase. 'How could you be so stupid sniffing his hair thinking he was soft but not putting him down? Jonghyun what's happening to you?'

He coughs awkwardly body tensing as he began to lower the feline kept his head low as the thought of his flushes crimson gives showing would bring him to his absolute hell.

"I...uh- I'm really... I'm really sorry Kibum-ah. Are you okay?" the elder explains in a stuttering mess, which made both he and the feline blush in embarrassment. 

"No, it's o-okay... I didn't get hurt I just got frightened that's all." Kibum says and he tries with all his might to force the blood out of his cheeks and into somewhere else, somewhere not visible. 

Minyoung nudges her oppa. "Umma looked just like that, it's scary how identical it looks actually." she whispers and Yoogeun nods knowingly. "You weren't lying." He states which makes the younger chuckle. "As if I could ever lie to my brother."

"Hyung-Umma, are you okay did you get hurt?" Yoogeun says laced with worry as he makes his way towards the feline. Kibum who nods "I think it's time for us to go home, Yoogeunnie." Key says. 

Jonghyun doesn't know what to do because... damn he just wants the soft clothed clad skin of the younger underneath his finger-tips and... 

"Umma, appa asked if you and Yoogeun wanted to come around again to play tomorrow, right daddy?" Minyoung smiles when Jonghyun just nods in agreement, while Yoogeun please silently as he tug if the felines shirt, who shifted his weight from one foot to the other.

"I... Well- uh, I guess it would be okay, Mi-ah." Kibum realises that come tomorrow he'll be absolutely hating his decision. 

it. 

"Well, do you want me to take you both home since it is kind of late?" Jonghyun offers earning a bright grin from both of the youngest who jump in celebration, linking arms towards the living room. 

"If... If, it isn't much of a hassle that would be kind of you." Kibum says, taking of the apron from his head, "Uhh... where should I-" He carries on as he folds the apron neatly. "I'll take that for you." The elder smiles before taking the said piece of garment away and leading the younger toward the front door. 

"Thank you, for today Sunhye noona. I had so much fun, I'll see you tomorrow." Kibum hugs the older lady who pats the younger's shoulders, chuckling.

"I had fun too, Kibum-ah, but I won't be seeing you tomorrow." Sunhye informs, "It's my day off whenever, Jonghyun is at home." Kibum nods. Great, now Kibum has to stay in this house with only him. 

"You're free to use the kitchen, Kibum." Sunhye says as she waves of both of the new company, hugging Yoogeun goodbye. 

"Are you ready to go?" Jonghyun asks taking his jacket by the hood. Kibum smiles nodding as he lifts up his bag along with Yoogeun's, who squatted down fixing the collar of the younger as well as straightening the little girl’s coat. 

However, Sunhye had caught the feline’s attention as she tries to surpass a giggle. The younger looks up confused at the source of the elder's giggles. 

Kibum too started to chuckle and giggle, because the scene that played in front of him was too funny and ironic. Like a dog trying to catch its own tail, the 24 year old continually spun in circles trying to get hold of his jackets left arm. Eyes pressed in a frown, lips in a focused pout.

Kibum looks at the elder who smiles at him before mouthing. "Help him already!" The blonde straightened his pants before taking the left hand of the elder's jacket, "Need some help?" Eyes twinkling and the elder thinks that maybe just maybe, Kibum is beautiful. 

"Yes, please." The brunette says with a sheepish smile deepening the dimples that formed in the younger's cheeks. 

Kibum takes the sleeve of the jacket, helping the other’s hand to slip inside it. "Thank you."

Minyoung swears that she could here angel’s sings and everything is right where it needs to be. 

Jonghyun extends his hand for his daughter to hop onto. "Lets go!" Smiling as he steadied the girl in his arms, taking his car keys followed by Kibum who held the younger boys arms. 

They really looked like a family. Okay maybe not the normal kind with a long haired mom with the nice flowery dress. However for Sunhye, Kibum was more than perfect for the role: caring, loving, beautiful. 

The lady prays as she closes the door that Jonghyun would stop living inside the pretend and just accept reality. 

Kibum settles both of the younger at the back. Safely strapping on the seatbelts before closing the door to climb in to the front seat neat to Jonghyun. 

Kibum gives the elder directions to his humble home. "So you live pretty near the school then?" Jonghyun asks glancing at the blonde bedside him. "Yeah, we do. I use to live further away but since Yoogeun's parents died I thought that living in a bigger place would be better for the both of us and getting a job near the school was really just a bonus." Kibum says quickly glancing at the two sleeping figures. 

"Thank you, Key. Seriously, thank you." The brunette says sincerely as he observed the way a gentle smile caressed his daughters sleeping face.

"If anything I should, be the one to say thank you." Kibum retorts because his never seen Yoogeun act so bold and happy ever since the day his parents past away. The elder soon understands that maybe it's because of the same background for the reason why both children got along so well. 

"Ki-umma this, Ki-umma tied my hair, Ki-umma read me a book. I really got jealous of you, you know every day Minyoung would come home everything seems to revolve around you... but today I saw why. She talks so highly of you and I just want to say thank you for looking after her and being the mother figure she secretly yearned for." Jonghyun could honestly say that everything came from the bottom of his heart. The way Minyoung was so lively and happy today. It brought a content smile on the elder's lips. 

Key is shocked. He never knew his simple actions and love towards the young girl meant so much and did so much for Jonghyun. He was internally glad to be able to fill the space even if not completely. 

"I admire you too, hyung. The way she would always come to school with a bright smile on her face as she babbles on about how great her father is. It always amused and confused me. I would have never guessed that Minyoung never had a mum since the love she gets from you doubles and triples that. You took care if her well, Jonghyun hyung." Kibum speaks from the heart because he knew how much the elder deserved it.

The two carry on talking as they neared Kibum's house, the younger found out more about the elder, who in return also found out more about him. The feline acknowledges how hard it must be to be a dad at such and young age, but instead of regretting not being able to experience the full teenage life the older could only chuckle.

"If I had the chance to go back in time, I'd still make the same mistakes, because at the end of it I have a lovely daughter as a consequence." He jokes but the blonde knew how indeed the elder will. 

"Do you have any idea of what to do tomorrow? we've got a whole day to tire out these little ones." Jonghyun says as he pulls over a drive way of a bungalow style house, with beautiful flowers and bushes. 

"I have no idea, but I think it'll be fun. I'll bake cakes and cookies, the kids will love them." Kibum offers with a smile as he unbuckles his seat belt, taking his belongings. 

Jonghyun smiled doing the same before climbing out of the vehicle. "And so will I." the elder then says earning a chuckle from the blonde other. 

"I'll carry Yoogeun for you," Jonghyun offers as he hands the younger boys belongings to the younger who says his thanks, before walking towards a cream coloured door. 

Jonghyun picks up the sleeping boy carrying him carefully out of his car, following the younger who unlocked the door, placing bags beside him extending a hand. Jonghyun place the boy in the others hand who smiles at him. 

"Thank you for today, Jonghyun hyung." Kibum says bending a little to show his respects.

Making the elder laugh. "Jonghyun, just call me Jonghyun, Kibum and here take this it's my phone number just in case." 

Because of the darkness that filled the night, Kibum manages to hide the feel crimson tint which coloured his cheeks. He extends a hand cream fingers brushing against contrasting ones as he took the small piece of paper from the elder's hands. 

"I'll get my driver to pick you up at, 11 o'clock in the morning." the elder says, Kibum nods.

"I'll see you tomorrow, Key." Jonghyun says as he waved the younger goodbye who did the same in return. 

As Jonghyun, sits down inside he realises that jumping into conclusions would only get him nowhere. 

He leans back to move a strand of hair that covered his daughters face.

"Being friends with him won't harm me." He murmurs and with the positive thought in mind, the brunette slowly starts the engine driving their way home. 

The way the whole day ran like a film inside his mind bewildered the younger. Heaving a silent sigh as his mind drew up scenarios upon scenarios of the young single dad. 

'What the hell are you thinking, Kibum? He doesn't play on the same team as you.' 

Younger brings a hand across the sleeping boy's cheeks, "What am I supposed to do, Yoogeun-ah?" He asks, hopeless, shutting his eyes trying to erase Jonghyun from his mind.

A vibration sent tingles to Kibum's spine. He slowly takes the device out of his jacket, body too exhausted to reply and mind too clouded.

As much as the feline does not want to admit it, maybe just maybe, Taemin is right. 

To: Kibummie hyung 

From: Taemean ;) 

I'm guessing I'm right, since I heard you fell numerous times today :)

The elder doesn't need a decoder or anything of the sort to find out, what the meaning is underneath the younger's message. 

Kibum groans as he shuts his eyes, ", I'm in love with my student's dad."
