Field Trip

Kindergarten is Hard, Especially for Grown Ups

So maybe having Donghae come along to their swimming field trip was a mistake. 

Eunhyuk watches as the kinders yell while the lifeguard saves Donghae. He walks over to Donghae, with the kinders trailing behind him.

"Donghae, are you okay?"

Donghae pouts, but nods.

"I thought you said you knew how to swim." 

"I might have exaggerated a tiny bit..."

"Kinders, is what Donghae did safe?"

A chorus of tiny voices reply. "Noooo!"

"Should we lie to people?" 

"Noooo!!"

Eunhyuk sighs. "Well, I guess you make a good example of what not to do at least."

Donghae smiles sheepishly. 

"Kinders, let's help Donghae learn how to play nicely in the kid's pool." 

The kids all start to pull and push Donghae as he laughs, nodding as they tell him they'll teach him the right way to play in the water. 

Eunhyuk chuckles as Donghae nearly falls into the water, barely catching himself in time. 

Donghae submerges himself under the water and explodes out, flicking water everywhere. He cackles as the children shriek and swim away. 

Eunhyuk does not stare at how bright Donghae's smile is, or how the water plasters Donghae's shirt to his body, or how water drips off his face. 

Not at all.

Chapter 1: What if Donghae intentionally behaves like a 5yo to get his attention?? I mean, it's Hyukjae! I also definitely would if it's him! LOL

Chapter 4: It seems like Haru has inherited a bit of her clumsy nature from Donghae. But hopefully for her sake it's not quite as bad, haha. Her dad sure has an effective way to get her to get over a little scrape. This is another really cute au. ♡

Chapter 3: Lol, so Donghae blames his extreme fumbling and bumbling on Hyuk's presence and it's not just his usual thing? Uh-oh, sounds like it would be bad for them to be in a relationship then...but Eunhyuk is already mentally agreeing to a relationship/dadhood. Fair, how could he not? Haru is as adorable as her dad. 🥺

Chapter 2: Aw, Donghae is a danger to himself around bodies of water. (And probably most things, I'm guessing.) It's a little scary to think he's a parent. How does someone like that, a perpetual hazard to himself, keep a little kid alive? 😭

Meanwhile, Eunhyuk surely is an expert at denial, huhu.

Chapter 1: Hehehe, yes Ddohae is a handful, even when he's trying to be helpful. (Also more than a handful under that sweater, huh Hyuk.) 🤭
