Junghan Needs a Break

When Your Life Suddenly becomes a Commercial
"YYYYOOOOOOHHHHH MOMMMMMYYYYY THIS IS MY STORREEEEEE!" Seungkwan started his usual morning song but with a remix and an added rap donated by Hansol. Junghan looked at the clock. 6:30 am. Today was unusually early. The long haired make thought as he got up. 
 
"If Seungkwannie is up then that means the rest are awake, huh?" Junghan picked the little one up and positioned him on his hip. He walked out and got confirmation on his little guess. The children were up and ready to make mess. Junghan sighed. He really wasn't feeling it today. He made them have some simple Cheerios because, who could go wrong with Cheerios?
 
Okay, so apparently he was dead wrong and that 11 kids should never have Cheerios in one room. Ever. Luckily, Seungcheol helped him clean the mess that Chan spilt before he left for work.
 
"Ah! That's right! Your lunch! I forgot!!!" Junghan began bustling around trying to make something decent for his leader's lunch.
 
"No, no it's quite alright, Junghan, I'll just buy!" Seungcheol smiled as he left. Junghan just pouted feeling bad. Today just seemed to be an off day for the man. He was already drained and the day had just begun.
 
"Mama, juice!" Soonyoung tugged on the blonde's pajama pants. "Juice pleeeeezzzz!" 
 
"Okay, baby, go sit down," Junghan ordered. As he was getting the cup and pouring juice he also put a little water in there because he learned the hard way that the kids can't take sugar. 
 
An hour later, Junghan was playing a puzzle piece game with the kids. 
 
"Mama look! I found a piece that fits!" Minghao excitedly showed Junghan. 
 
"Oh you did!" Junghan congratulated making Minghao giggle happily. "And here it goes! Yay!!" Junghan cheered making everyone clap even Chan who had no clue as to what was occurring right now, was in high spirits. "Okay! One more piece, who has it?" Junghan looked around and everyone looked at each other.
 
"Oh! ME!" Jisoo jumped up waving the piece in the air. 
 
"Okay!" Junghan took the piece and put it in revealing a puzzle that showed a cartoon depiction of the African Safari. The kids started to name all the animals present and making noises to mimic the animal noises.
 
"RWAR!"
 
"NO A LION DOESNT SOUND LIKE THAT!" Minghao yelled at Jun. "it's RAOR!"
 
"NO IT DOES!!" Jun whined back. 
 
"NO"
 
"YES!"
 
This small snowflake started an avalanche of disagreements between two sides of the seemingly same sound. And Junghan's headache grew.
 
"ALRIGHT! Enough of that, since we can't play nice we won't play at all." Junghan sent them to their time out chairs for 2 minutes and then they will all apologize and have snacks. As he rubbed his forehead, Junghan prepared snacks. After the two minutes were up the kids ate their snacks and went back to playing. Junghan sat on the couch listening to more wailing, annoying kiddie songs, and idiotic playing. 
 
"Can I brush your hair??" Mingyu asked with big puppy eyes. He loved playing in his "mothers" hair. Junghan just sighed and nodded hoping he would be gentle this time. Truth be told, he had, had enough. Doing the same thing everyday. Waking up early-making breakfast-keeping the kids busy-making lunch-cleaning the mess the kids made-putting fussy babies to sleep-making dinner-washing everyone up-and going to sleep. Every, single, day. There had to be a better way. Why are the kids getting rowdier and rowdier than before? 
 
Just then a commercial came on that gave Junghan an idea.
 
"Is this you?" a deep voice questioned and then showed a clip of a middle aged woman about to rip her hair out because of her kids loud and annoying behavior.
 
"Yes," Junghan answered eying a whining Jihoon because Wonwoo and Mingyu are teasing him then he looked at an over-hyper Sooyoung. 
 
"Well, your kids must have cabin fever. Just like a plant, they too, need sunshine and fresh air. However, amusement parks and road trips are too expensive right?"
 
"Right." Junghan responded once again.
 
"How about going on down to the neighborhood park district, new playgrounds, paths, and outside activities for the whole family to enjoy all at the lowest price there is; free." Junghan had sat up. He was very interested now. He wrote down the location and the times/days the park was doing certain things. He found that tomorrow was Seungcheol's first off day and that their would be an end of the summer last blast  type of thing happening so, Junghan had to make sure they went.
 
"The TV man was right! These kids have nothing to do! They need to go outside," Junghan spoke aloud. The front door creaked open and Junghan ran to the door. "You're home late..."
 
"Yeah, sorry, I had a lot to enter in today..." Seungcheol sighed. He really was glad he had a day off tomorrow. He really needed it.
 
"Your dinner is in the microwave, shall I warm it up?" 
 
"Yes, please and thank you," Seungcheol sat on the couch with a thump and loosened his tie. Junghan brought his dinner and he gasped. "It's always so delicious!" He commented when he took the first bite.
 
"You say that everytime it's okay to be honest..." Junghan was still not confident in his cooking.
 
"Oh, shut up, you're perfect." Seungcheol snapped.
 
"I am?" Junghan asked, flattered.
 
"ITS- I MEANT...Ahem, I meant it's perfect...sorry I'm sleepy..." Seungcheol excused himself. Junghan nodded and let his head fall.
 
There was a moment of silence until Junghan remembered what he was about to ask Seungcheol.
 
"Ah! Tomorrows your off day!" 
 
"Sure is..." Seungcheol smiled to himself. It's been a long time coming.
 
"So..." Seungcheol looked at Junghan expectantly. "Want to go to the park?" 
 
"Park?"
 
Seungcheol could not say no when he saw the little puppy dog face he pulled. 'Dammit,' he thought. Junghan was learning their ways and using it against him, his only weakness. Seungcheol sighed and agreed.
 
The next morning, Seingcheol expected to sleep in but nope. First thing, he was woken up by the kids excitedly jumping into their bed and singing about how much fun they were going to have. Seungcheol groaned and got up to wash his face and prepare himself for the nightmare ahead.
 
When he was finished, he saw the kids are dressed and ready to go and Junghan feeding them breakfast. He, too, looked excited to be able to go some where. Seungcheol felt bad for him. Even before once they debuted they really couldn't just go anywhere they wanted any more so now, it was like his only chance to get out and enjoy himself.
 
How sad.
 
Seungcheol led them all into the car and as he buckled them in he vowed to make today as fun as humanly possible to Junghan. The younger man needed it. 
 
"Are you gonna be okay driving?" Junghan asked a bit wary since the last time they got in the car together he could have sworn his soul came out of his body. 
 
"Yes! I've been driving everyday for a while now! Watch this!" Seungcheol got in and buckled himself in. He moved his mirrors and effectively backed out of the drive way. Junghan sighed as he didn't feel in any danger and looked at Seungcheol proud.
 
"Well then it seems you did learn something at your new job!" Junghan giggled and it was the most musical giggle Seungcheol had ever heard. He had to make this day the best for Junghan. He just had to. 
 
"Daddy, can you turn the radio up?" Jisoo asked as he recognized the song on the radio.
 
"Hmm?" Seungcheol complied and it was some weird kids sound presumably from that popular show "Jake and Neverland Pirates" all the kids joined in (especially Seungkwan who basically preformed the damn opening) even the littlest maknae was bouncing along to the beat. However, Seungcheol just couldn't understand the appeal. He went to give Junghan a lost look but when he turned and saw Junghan bouncing his head and singing. 
 
"The merry crew of Never Land Pirates
Through & Through - they're jolly buccaneers
Join with Jake and the Neverland Pirates
Come Along - We need some volunteers!" Seungcheol's mouth dropped. 
 
He knew all the words.

A/N: Sorry, I almost forgot to update I'm watching Seventeen on The Show that News thing was so funny lol. But anyway sorry if there are terrible terrible mistakes IM A LAZY SON OF A GUN will fix later! Plus that ending was so rushed in because I felt it get long so the next chapter will be a continuation of their day at the park. Glad you all love the bonus I did my best to write cute stuff I love the fluffy ((ITS SO FLUFFEH))

((Plus i cant stop thinking about how Junghan would know all the words to every kids show because of Seungkwan singing it and all the shows they have played on repeat at home...he really needs a break orz))

ENJOY~ 

Dont forget to upvote I will love you forever ((I already do but if you do it I'll put up another bonus to show my love!)).

EDIT: AH! Sorry it took me so long to fix it but recently it was brought to my attention by a dear reader that I had used the wrong term ((I hadn't meant it that way)) I used stockholm syndrome which is when the kidnappee falls in "love" or feels sympithetic towards their kidnapper ultimately changing their feelings toward this obviously bad person. Junghan's not a kidnapper XD. I think the word I was going for was cabin fever meaning they've just been locked up inside for so long they make trouble, but wow this is what happens when you dont double check your work, kids! anyway I tried checking if theres any more mistakes but I'm so lazy so if there is a mistake I made or a term I used incorrectly/spelled wrong don't be shy to let me know I like it when my friends help me better my work :) 

Anyway, Fighting!

((shout out to Almight_Melon_Lord for bringing this to my attention!))
