He was playing on his father's lap when the doorbell rang throughout their big mansion like house, his father picked the seven year old kid up from his lap to put him next to him on the couch, his mother answered the door, turned out it was his father's best friend & his family, a boy about his age but a bit shorter than him tagging behind his mother, he had crooked teeth, & smiled a lot , he remembered, & he hated the guts of the kid, acting all mighty & all when he couldn't even match his height, he snickered, drawing attention of all the adults, including the always smiling boy, what was his name again, Junho?? Minhoo??

' Yunho , whay don't you go play with Jaejoong, while we talk some matters with Uncle Kim, hm?', the boy's father crouched in front of him, & pushed him lightly towards him, so that was his name, jaejoong huffed & ran to his room without sparing a glance to the boy, he knew the boy would follow him anyway, when they were halfway towards the stairs, yunho offered his hand for handshake , he just flipped him off, but the guy's smile didn't diminish, rather widened, & jaejoong scowled at him, running the remaining distance to his room, yunho was by his side in no time, for such  a short legs the boy could actually run fast, jaejoong was awed, but he shook his head when he realized that he was praising the other boy in his mind, he started increasing his speed, no way in hell would he let the shorty ever win, he smiled when he found out that he had left yunho behind, but the smile didn't last long because his one leg tangled into another, & he found himself falling on the hardfloor on his knees, his tiny limbs twisted in an awkward angle, he gave out a cry of pain, & started wailing loudly when he saw blood on his scratched knees, he groaned when he touched his kness, & started crying even more, yunho shuffled over him, crouched in front of him, his face laced with worry,' Does it hurt a lot?', he asked hovering his small fingers over the other's knee not really touching, Jaejoong nodded dumbly, sniffing loudly, he looked at yunho as he blew air on his knees, he whimpered but didn't complaint, it didn't sting much, rather it felt good.

Yunho looked up at him to see if his ministrations hurt, Jaejoong smiled at him, shook his head no as an answer for his unasked question, & yunho smiled back.

He kissed him on his cheek, that action was enough for jaejoong's eyes to widen, nobody has kissed him until now other than his parents, anywhere, in his hazy mind, he didn't see the boy smiling broadly & adavancing once again towards him, but this time he dropped a kiss on his pink pouty lips,' My mother always kisses me where it hurts most, but since there's blood on your knees, I think this kiss will do, do you feel better now?', the boy asked brightly.

Jaejoong blinked at him with his big eyes, & then screamed, all the adults rushed to them in an instant, when they saw jaejoong's knees bleeding, they asked him if he shouted because it hurt, but the boy shook his head in denial , & pointed an accusatory finger at yunho, & whined about yunho kissing him on the lips, ' Now, I will have to marry him, right omma? On T.V. the hero who kisses the heroin gets married to her, right?', he asked sniffing loudly. All the adults start laughing at his expanse, & about how he would have to cuddle with yunho everyday, at which the little boy made gagging sounds, causing another fits of giggles around him, yunho smiled proudly, eventhough not quite understanding what the adults were talking about but he knew " Cuddles", he loved cuddling,' Don't worry, Jaejoongie, I'll marry you, & we'll cuddle everyday', he beamed & stole yet another kiss from him, their parents cooed at the sight, while jaejoong whined more.

                                                                                                    ~

Jaejoong woke up with a jerk, he found his face strained with dry tears, it's been too long , might be years since he had those dreams, in which everything was alright, they were all happy, Why now?After all this years, why only now, did the dreams start recurring? 'Yunho' that name he'd long forgotten, every other memory he had associated with that day, he'd made himself forget, he sighed & turned around on his side, to find himself face to face with his roommate--soulmate--bestfriend, Yoochun, whose eyes were half -open, & he was staring right back at him, jaejoong got a scare of his life , he clutched at his chest & scurried back from the too close too spooky face, only to bump into someone's chest he looked over his shoulder, to find his another bubbly best friend, Junsu, who in turn snuggled against his back, threw one of his legs over jaejoong's hips, & draped one hand over his shoulder & pulled him more into his chest, mumbling something, Jaejoong smiled, but didn't move, let himself get encased like a teddy bear, he looked ahead at Yoochun, who had his eyes closed now, a drool escaping past his lips, thank God, that was atleast not so spooky as his half eyes- open -kind of- face, yoochun extended his hand on the futon as if searching for something, when he didn't find it, he opened his eyes, & looked directly into jaejoong's eyes, jaejoong realized he was looking for a source of warmth, he was looking for him, he smiled & beckoned yoochun towards him, yoochun rolled till his chest collided with jaejoong's , he too threw one of his legs over his hips, over junsu's leg, & snuggled to his chest with a lazy grin, jaejoong patted his head a few times, when he heard rustling of futon, & shuffling of feet, he craned his neck to see Leeteuk heading to the kitchen for a glass of water, leeteuk scratched his while passing by them, & smiled at them fondly while returning to his original place beside Dongahe, who tugged at leeteuk's hand, & lolled his head on the arm in an instant, falling into a deep sleep.

Jaejoong smiled , feeling his heart burst with so much love & adoration for his family. Yes, his Family. He had a family now, & he wouldn't change that for the world.

He loved them . He loved his family.
