{A/N: Okay. Elise needs some serious quality time with Kris and Xiumin. So this one goes out to Krees!}

It was a comfortable, quiet day.

The maknaes were arguing.

D.O. was threatening Xiumin.

Lay and Chen were playing chess, Kris studying the game and giving advice to Lay, who was new at the game.

Baekhyun, Chanyeol, and Kai were playing video games.

Luhan was playing on his phone.

Suho had one arm around you, eyes drifting shut.

You gazed at all of them with affection. You were close to all of them really, except Xiumin, Kris, and Lay didn't talk much so it was hard to get close to him.

"That's it," you said as you stood.

Suho's eyes flew open, his arm dropping back down. "Gwenchana yeobo?"

"Yeah, no. I can't stand this anymore," you declared.

Chanyeol paused the videogame.

"Stand what Angel?" asked Baekhyun.

"I'm sure you guys haven't noticed, or maybe you have, but I'm painfully awkward with Duizhang here."

Kris looked up in surprise.

"It's true," Tao agreed with a grave nod.

"Therefore gege, you're coming with me," you announced, going in front of him and holding out your hand.

Kris raised an eyebrow. "Why should I go anywhere with you?"

"Wipe that smirk off your face before I slap it off."

"You're not strong enough to."

"No but my seven mates certainly are."

Kris chuckled, then took your hand, standing to his tall height.

"Where are you going?" Chen asked curiously.

You glanced at Kris, not wanting him to know.

Quickly, you bent to whisper the answer in Chen's ear.

Chen shivered at your warm breath on his neck, heart pounding at how close you were, your hair tickling his cheek and neck, the scent of you enough to drive him wild.

He grinned up at you as you pulled back. "Araso. Have fun! See you later!"

Kai frowned. "Where you headed Red?"

"I'll tell you when they leave," Chen assured.

♦-†-♥-†-♦

You dragged Kris down the street.

"Where are we going?"

You flashed him a grin over your shoulder. "The best place on Earth."

He raised an eyebrow, amused. "Disneyland? Or Disneyworld?"

You stuck out your tongue, then drew back as habit from when Kai tried to bite it. "Somewhere in walking distance genius."

Kris chuckled and rolled his eyes.

Then you brought him to the destination. "Ha-ha!"

He raised an eyebrow. "Only you would think the library is the best place on Earth."

You shrugged. "This is me we're talking about."

"Alright. Why are we here?" he asked as you successfully took him inside.

"We're going to get closer!"

"How? Are we going to read fairytales to each other?"

"Oh please. Spare me the sarcasm, Duizhang. You're going to find your favorite book and bring it back to me. I don't care if it's in Korean, Japanese, Mandarin, or English. And I shall bring you my favorite book."

He nodded. "Araso. It
