"Minseokkie-hyung, Kyungsoo wants to play with you!" Little Kyungsoo sat beside Minseok on the jigsaw mat as he held his hand with his two tiny ones. The cringing of the nose and that gummy smile from the six year old was a weakness for the elder.

The other pupils were playing blocks and kiddie board games with each other, sharing sweet smiles and laughter as they take toys from the shelves that Yifan perfectly arranged.

At the end of the day, Yifan will just stare at the shelves for a long while then let out a sigh as he pick more toys just in one hand.

He’s used to it. The other worker named Junmyeon was there too so it’s fine.

Minseok smiled as he tapped the tip of Kyungsoo’s nose with his finger, “Anything for you, dear. What do you want to play?”

Minseok, Luhan, and Yixing always visit their friend Yifan who was working at a daycare on times of day-off, a suggestion by Yixing for a good way of relaxation, not to mention the free Chinese food Yifan always order for them.

But of course, it was not really that free. They need to go out to the war zone.

Some people call it as the playpen.

They’ve always looked up for Yifan as the cold city guy. They didn’t know he has a soft heart for fluffy cheeks and sweet giggles.

"Kyungie wants to play Castle Castle and M’seok-hyung will be his handsome prince!" says the boy as he jumped for a hug on Minseok’s neck.

The older one replied a squeeze back to his little body. “Oh! It’s a pleasure to be your prince, sir.” Minseok reached Kyungsoo’s hand as the little one stood, and kissed his tiny fingers. He asked, “So, what do you want to do, Prince Kyungie?”

"Prince Kyungie needs a horse! Do you have a friend horse, Prince Minseokkie-hyung?" Kyungsoo sat his on Minseok’s thigh and the fall didn’t even hurt him. The boy’s puffy cheeks and cute crescent eyes were replaced with knitted brows and a pout. Minseok just wanted to punch a wall from all the cuteness.

He managed to control himself. Time to boast. “Prince Kyungie can ride at my back because Prince Minseok works out.”

No time to waste. Kyungsoo rode at Minseok’s back and the older one ran around with his hands on Kyungsoo’s little thighs. The boy hugged Minseok’s neck so tight because his hyung kept on scaring him that he’ll fall, adding more loud giggling sounds to fill the room mixing with the other kids’ playing around.

Luhan was getting a toy car from the top of a shelf to give to a tall boy called by the pupils as TaoTao. Well, he’s pretty tall for a six year old.

"Thank you, Luhannie-ge!" TaoTao smiled as he ran off to a five-year old boy who just looked happy when his playmate got back. "I got the toy car now, Sehunnie!"

Luhan was about to follow TaoTao to play with him when a light pull was felt at the hem of his shirt. He knelt as he tried to level the boy’s height. Luhan asked, “Yes, Jongin?”

"Luhannie-hyung, do you know what they’re playing? Jonginnie wants to play too." Jongin pointed at Kyungsoo who was wiping Minseok’s sweat off of his forehead as the older one acted out being tired from all the running.

Luhan pulled Jongin close because it’s just hard not to when you’re surrounded with little cuties. “I think they’re acting out as princes but from what I see, Minseok seems like a horse than a prince.”

Jongin tugged on Luhan’s collar and smiled, “Lets play with them!”

Minseok breathed in exaggeration as he sat with Kyungsoo who was wiping a towel on his forehead and squeezing his nose. “Kyungie needs to get a stronger horse next time.”

It was all just an act out to tease the little one so he laughed. “I thought I was your prince! And that horse will let you fall unlike me.”

The tickling session was interrupted when two boys came in sight, standing proudly with their gold paper crowns on their heads. “I am King Luhan and this is Prince Jonginnie from the far land of the Swing set and we have come to play with you!”

Minseok laughed as he looked up at his boyfriend who was smiling back at him. Funny how he managed to put color gems on his crown for a Castle Castle game and how little Jonginnie imitated Luhan’s princely manners. “Such handsome princes we have here! Right, Prince Kyungie?”

The older one looked at Kyungsoo and was surprised that the knitted brows were back again. Kyungsoo shouted, “Kyungie doesn’t wanna play with Jonginnie. Just go back to your Chanyeollie since Jonginnie likes Chanyeol-hyung more than Kyungie!”

The three of them was surprised as Kyungsoo threw himself for a hug around Minseok’s trunk. The older one patted his back, same with Luhan who Jongin hugged as well. The two man looked at each other in confusion. Minseok gazed back at Kyungsoo and asked, “What’s the problem, Prince Kyungie?”

Kyungsoo’s muffled voices were heard as he buried his face on Minseok’s shirt. The boy sniffled. Why is he crying?! “Jonginnie dun wantu play wit Kyungie.”

"I’m sure he wants to play with you. Don’t cry now." Minseok gave a reassuring pat on the little boy’s head but Kyungsoo just shook his head, wiping his wet face on the clothing of his hyung.

Jongin stood up from Luhan’s hug and tapped Kyungsoo’s shoulder. “Kyungie, talk to Jonginnie please. I’m sowee~ Look, I even made you your own crown, too!" Jongin offered what he promised to Kyungsoo with both of his small hands.

Luhan and Minseok doesn’t want to interrupt so they’re trying hard not to laugh but oh my god, first love quarrel.

"No, go awaaaayyyy~ Prince Minseokkie-hyung, save me!" Kyungsoo kept on shaking his shoulder from Jongin’s touch, so he just came back to sit on Luhan’s lap.

Kyungsoo looked at Minseok with tears in his eyes. God, the older one never thought he’ll get any weaker. He said, “Stop crying! Jonginnie already said sorry to you. Now, go say sorry to him too.”

The two were having an intense staring battle of “Please, say sorry to him!” and “No, Kyungie dun wanna!” and Minseok doesn’t even know why he’s not melting yet when a grip on his hand was felt. It was Jongin’s and on his other hand was Luhan’s.

"Minseokkie-hyung’s prince is Luhannie-hyu-" Jongin was about to put both of his hyungs' hands together and got interrupted when Kyungsoo hugged Minseok on his neck again and swayed violently.

The power of the cute irresistible squishy brat.

He shouted, “Prince Minseokkie-hyung is mine!”

Even though it’s only a whisper, the three still heard what Jongin just said.

"But don’t you want Jonginnie to be your prince, Kyungie?"

The younger one played with his fingers as he stared at his feet while waiting for Kyungsoo’s reply. But what he received was much better than words.

Kyungsoo hugged Jongin, resting his chin on the shoulder of the five-year old. The three were shocked and Minseok just couldn’t help but to tighten his grip on Luhan’s hand. He whispered in a breathy voice, “You can only marry me if you’ll get me kids as cute as these two!”

Luhan just smiled, “Are you after our marriage or the cute kids?”

Time for nap has come and everyone already grabbed their thick blankets and pillows to sleep together at the wide floor cushion.

Minseok just finished tucking Chanyeol and Baekhyun to doze off to Dreamland, the two kids hugging each other as they share one big pillow on their heads. They easily fell asleep because the two were busy bugging other kids and laughing and rolling around, together with Jongdae who was still wrestling Yixing with his blanket wrapped around the older man.

Yixing couldn’t help but to laugh and so the commotion just stopped when Yifan glared at little Jongdae, scarring the boy’s life with just one stare if he will not stop making noise or god so help him, he’ll be the one tucking Jongdae to sleep. The boy joined Yixing inside the little cocoon of blanket he just made and took a nap with his hyung as well. Poor Yixing is tired. At least, he slept with a smile and a dimple on his face.

Luhan already sang a lullaby to Sehun and TaoTao that made him want to swallow a pillow with all the adorable snoring but it just happened to be faked since he heard little giggles and saw TaoTao peeking if he’s still there. When Luhan came back, TaoTao laughed once more and hugged his panda bear in his arms, and Sehun must have forgotten that TaoTao is not a pillow nor a bear since he squeezed the older one the same way.

The kids were all asleep now and Yifan invited Luhan, Minseok and Junmyeon, who just finished cleaning the playground for later, for a cup of coffee at his office since Yixing couldn’t go when Jongdae wrapped his little arms around Yixing’s neck.

Minseok was about to stand from surrounding Chanyeol and Baekhyun with pillows when he noticed Kyungsoo and Jongin still awake at the edge of the cushion. He crawled to their direction, “Why are you still awake?”

There were a lot of pillows piled up and white blankets tied up like a tent and the two kids hopped inside to invite Minseok to come in. “Prince Minseokkie-hyung! This is our castle and we built a fort and it’s so perfect and we will live happily ever after-“

"Okay, okay, Prince Kyungie, time for bed now." Minseok lifted Kyungsoo as he settled the little boy beside Jongin who was already sleepy and half-lidded from all the playing and castle-building. Jongin whispered, "Prince Kyungie, Jonginnie w-wants to-" And a cute baby lion yawn was seen from the boy’s little mouth.

The two fell asleep easily without being tucked, their fingers entangled with each other.

Minseok jumped out of their blanket fortress and pulled Luhan to follow him. He hugged his boyfriend as they both sneaked a peek inside Kyungsoo and Jongin’s castle.

"I want kids like them so you better keep your promise, Luhan."

"Call me Lu-ge first."

"Lu-ge~"

"So cute!"

A place to breathe is really needed for times like these when you can witness such peaceful slumber and adorable snoring and fluff.

Luhan could still see TaoTao awake.
