hearing the birds chirping, feeling the sunlight getting inside the room and touching his skin, and also smelling a delicious taste of pancakes, yangyang fluttered his eyes open like some main perfect main character of the movie. he looked so perfect early in the morning, as if he hasn't just went through a storm of misunderstandings last night. but nonetheless, it was fixed, and all he had to do was time alone to think about it, and a good night's rest.

although, he had to admit, he was quite harsh demanding to have the room all to himself. well, that's because, there's no way he'll have to sleep on the sofa. he just hopes that the two also had a good rest. yangyang can even bet his whole monthly allowance that they are still cuddling by now, with an angry louis waiting patiently for them to move away from his territory.

staring at the ceiling for quite a while, yangyang switched his position to the side and was startled to see a little boy fighting to fall asleep. soon then, a small smile made its way to his lips as he lifted his hand up and brushed the boy's hair that's covering his forehead. ❝morning..❞

his groggy voice woke the boy up and he was greeted by an adorable yawn from him. ❝morning, papa!❞

❝how long have you been here?❞ even he was too tired to move, but he sat up anyways and carried the boy up to his lap. ❝you didn't wake papa up.❞

❝you look peaceful, and i just want to stay here with you.❞ eleven leaned forward and buried his head on to the student's chest.

❝what about your dad and dada?❞ yangyang removed the duvet that's covering his lower body and finally stood up while carrying the boy that's slowly dozing off to sleep.

❝they're attempting to make breakfast for papa.❞ mumbling with his words. eleven puffed his cheeks and wasted no time to close his eyes and let his head fall on to the student's shoulder.

halting his tracks in the middle of going to the door, he exclaimed, ❝they.. what!?❞

"no, bella, go back to the living room!"

"louis, that's bella's food!"

"dejun, can you reach for the extra bowls at the top shelf?"

"are you making fun of me?"

"not really, midget."

"oh, that's it. you're asking for a fight!"

❝no, no fight is happening!❞ and that's actually what yangyang walked in to the scene, seeing their pets being shooed away from the kitchen. he now saw xiaojun gripping on to the ceo's collar and having one fist raised up, while hendery was using a thong for cooking to threaten the smaller male.

so much for expecting them to cuddle, they looked like they were back to square one, and that's being cats and dogs.

even bella and louis have better relationship towards each other, and they are literally cats and dogs. meanwhile, these two have to be complicated. one minute, they treat each other like no other can, and in another, they be already up to slicing one's throat.

❝yangyang?❞ and this is the other side the student was talking about. the two moved away from each other and gave the youngest of them the brightest smile they could muster up. just before the student could say a thing, the both of them moved in a blink of an eye.

with hendery bringing their breakfast down to the table, xiaojun was setting it all up with the plates and utensils, along with the wine glass yangyang had no idea they actually had. the student just stood their with a sleeping eleven in his arms, watching the two use their teamwork in making the most perfect breakfast for them. the dishes, and even desserts, on top of the table may be mouth-watering, but his attention was with the two that are so busy moving around here and there.

❝what are you guys doing?❞ he finally asked after being guided to one of the chairs, also making sure that their sleepy boy gets to sit down properly right next to him. ❝i have to get out of the room, fast, after finding out that you two are making breakfast together.❞

no, not because they don't know how to, but because yangyang had already expected for them to fight like this. sure, he did have a slight bit hope of them cuddling, but it's still the xiaojun and hendery he knows, they won't hesitate to go for each other's throat if they have to. fortunately, the kitchen is still in it's right state, but it still doesn't shrug of the fact that he walked up on them almost throwing fists to one another.

❝well,❞ settling down first, hendery wiggled his brows at the student. ❝we just decided to give you a simple breakfast.❞

simple breakfast? this looks like a whole feast. and then comes after xiaojun, taking the seat right across them. ❝mainly an apology for the damage we have cost.❞

these two know him so well. the best way to get to yangyang's heart is food, and this is what they are doing to him right now. meh, not like he can hate them for long. their apologies last night were already enough for him, but who is he to turn down food? ❝you don't have to, but let's eat anyways.❞

the two then gave him a smile before looking at each other with a victorious expression. they knew that they succeeded in making his morning great, this is still one of the many things that they planned to do for yangyang. going to a park, having a nice date, bringing eleven to an amusement park— just to make up for the mistakes they had made.

❝eleven, sleepy head!❞ yangyang let out a chuckle when he pinched the boy's cheeks, one way to wake him up. ❝let's eat breakfast, dad and dada made them.❞

fluttering his drowsy eyes open, the boy could have drooled from the sight of his favorites that's down the table if it weren't just for his sleepiness taking over him.

but yangyang knew what his alarm can be. ❝come on, you want to see little sushi today, right?❞

and as expected, he jolted his posture straight and had his eyes wide open. his action made the three laugh and coo right after. he cared for little sushi that much, and probably may have taken a liking towards that certain wong. well, ain't that interesting? now, they will have to wait as to what is going to happen to him and sian, they also look like very good friends.

in the middle of feeding the little boy from time to time and wiping the corning of his lips, yangyang's eyes travelled to the wall clock inside the kitchen and hurried eating his meal as he was put to a realization. ❝i'm going to be late!❞

he stuffed his mouth with food and choked while rushing thing, gulping without fully chewing it. that made both hendery and xiaojun panic, causing them to quickly get a glass of water and handed it both at the same time. the student was still coughing like his life depends on it as he stared at the wine glass, having a hard time choosing one. in fact, he can't choose one without feeling guilty that he disregarded the other help.

but as it his cries of despair was heard from the heavens above, their boy took his own glass of water and gently slid it towards the student. poking his shoulder, eleven let out a giggle as he pointed his glass. ❝papa, here!❞

this boy is such a life saver. yanyang didn't waste a second to take the glass from him and drink the water to prevent himself from dying at an early age.

but he was bewildered seeing the two so calm instead of fighting as to whose glass of water he should get.

but yangyang didn't want to bring that up and give them an idea. however, it seems like that's where this conversation is going to. ❝you know, i still remember the first time the three of us sat here, eating breakfast like this.❞

where he met xiaojun at the park- and of course, yangyang wasn't oblivious at the fact that he definitely was flirting with him. that didn't affect him at all, he was loyal to his boyfriend, and he knew it was all just a simple joke. since the latter looked like a nice guy, and he also owe him a hotdog, yangyang decided that it would be a great idea to bring someone, he just met for an hour, home and have breakfast with him. he got an earful from his boyfriend with that, but it truly was worth it as he earned a new friend.

little did he know, it ended up like this.

and just like what he said, it was all worth it. he regret not a single thing to getting to know more about xiaojun, and having these two fix their issues together.

in the midst of thinking about it, yangyang snapped out from his pile of memories about them as he was reminded of school. ❝i'm going to be marked absent at this point!❞

while the little boy beside him was taking all the time in the word in feeding himself, the student looked like he just entered an eating competition. fortunately, he was able to finish his breakfast without choking again, and sprinted away to do his morning routine in a jiff. both xiaojun and hendery watched him run away before turning to look at each other and bursting out laughing at how bloated the younger's face looked when finishing his meal.

as xiaojun went back to eating, checking eleven from time to time, the ceo just felt the need to bring this one up. ❝so, why did you think we were brothers again?❞

taking out a table napkin and wiping their boy's lips with it, he froze from his place at the gush of memories coming to him. ❝we are so not having this conversation right now.❞

❝yes, we are.❞ dropping the metallic chopsticks down, hendery leaned back with a smirk. ❝i want to know.❞

heaving out a sigh, xiaojun decided to leave their sleepy boy alone and deal with this arrogant man first. ❝i was upset that morning, you kicked me out during the interview!❞

❝who, in their right mind, would pout during a job interview?❞ talking about that, hendery was being slapped by the fact that lucas got inside the company for posing. he didn't know what was going on inside his father's mind when he hired the head of finance now, but he's actually doing a great job despite of posing during his interviews, as if he was going to apply to a model company. ❝that's no where near in being professional.❞

❝i would, because i was desperate.❞ there was no lie with that, xiaojun did have no choice but to use his almighty pout just to get in, but it failed badly. ❝but yeah, that was it. and then i prayed to meet a cute guy that could treat me for breakfast, since i was broke, and yangyang showed up.❞

❝and among everything, you just have to mistaken me as his brother.❞ hendery scoffed, eyeing the smaller figure that's sitting right across him.

❝he never told me about having a boyfriend.❞ xiaojun just assumed he was single since he just let him flirt. ❝also, it's better than being mistaken as a father, you would have been offended.❞

having a joke in mind this early in the morning, hendery showed his playful smirk. ❝and why would i be?❞

❝come on, would you rather have them mistake you as an old man?❞ xiaojun reasoned out.

❝no,❞ only to get an inappropriate joke. ❝but i love to be called daddy in bed.❞

xiaojun was ready to talk back to him but he was unfortunately cut off by the boy that's now wide awake and looking confused as ever as he was listening to them. ❝dad, is dada your son?❞

❝what?❞ turning to his side, hendery pressed his lips to a thin line as he didn't get to notice that their conversation was heard by the kid.

and xiaojun felt the need to protect that innocence he never had. ❝no, eleven, he's just playing around. how about you finish your breakfast and we'll play bubbles later? then, we can go and see little sushi after!❞

oh, using little sushi won't get them out of the mess. once eleven gets curious, he's not stopping until he finds the answers to his questions. ❝but dad is saying that he wants you to call him "daddy",❞ the boy then let out a tiny gasp. ❝that would mean you're my brother, dada!❞

with xiaojun burying his face down on to the palm of his hands, hendery had his laugh echoing inside the kitchen. the ceo then reach out his hands towards the boy and carried him up while he was in the middle of eating his pancakes. ❝dada is not your brother, eleven.❞

gulping down the pancakes, the said boy then tilted his head to the side. ❝but you said—❞

❝it's just a joke,❞ not really, but he had to lie for the sake of the kid's innocence, and also for the sake of him still keeping his own house as he knows that both yangyang and xiaojun would burn it down if he continues tainting the child. ❝and you would understand it when you grow older.❞

groaning, xiaojun was shaking his head. ❝he won't, don't even try to teach him that, kunhang.❞

ignoring him, hendery faked a gasp at the idea he had in mind. ❝maybe you'd even want to be called daddy as well!❞

having his eyes widened, xiaojun stood up from his seat in panic. meanwhile, eleven was clueless as to what the man was talking about. ❝w-why would i want to be called as daddy?❞

rushing out of the house, being the last one to get himself ready, yangyang held on to his bag while the other hand was busy locking the front door. after doing so, he made a run for it, almost stumbled down along the way. huffing, he pouted while he closed the gates and went to the car that's parked right there, just waiting for him. he actually fell asleep while settling himself down the bathtub. he just realized that all of them had already gotten ready for the day, xiaojun even came to the room to check up on him, thinking that he died inside the bathroom.

❝sorry, it took me long—❞ opening the door at the front seat, he was taken aback by the sight of the ceo still in his house clothes and looking so disheveled, like a dinosaur came to fight him. ❝what happened to you?❞

despite of being confused, yangyang can't help but snort at the sight of the ceo having a red mark that formed a hand on his cheek, his hair badly messed up, and his eyes looking drowsy. it's the midget that's to be blamed, but seeing that threatening smile coming from xiaojun, hendery decided not to bring it up. ❝just get inside, you're late.❞

❝damn, okay.❞ the student let out a cackle before settling himself down on the front seat, closing the door and putting his bag on his lap. pulling the rear mirror to his direction, yangyang was in the middle of checking himself out when he caught a glimpse of their boy and xiaojun behind. ❝psst, morning.❞

from teaching their boy how to play the game from his phone, xiaojun looked up and didn't know why his cheeks reacted on its own and had a light blush when he saw the student smiling at him by the rear view mirror. ❝h-hey..❞

❝welcome to episode sixty, season nine, of dejun stuttering—❞ hendery was cut off when a hand went to smack his chest.

that took him aback that he almost steered the wheel to the wrong direction, clicking his tongue and decided to just focus on the road instead. meanwhile, yangyang rolled his eyes at how his boyfriend just can't leave this guy alone. ❝i suggest you to shut up if you don't want the dinosaur to pounce at you again.❞

❝a cute one.❞ hendery commented with a smirk on his face.

that attempt of flirting made the student fake a gag before twisting his body halfway around, enough to see the two from the backseat. ❝eleven, are you excited to meet little sushi?❞

❝i heard sian will also be there at the daycare.❞ before their boy can say anything, xiaojun gave them a heads up.

❝oh,❞ letting out a nervous laugh, yangyang reached his hand out to brush strands of the boy's hair away from covering his eyes. not because he wasn't fond of the latter, he actually finds him adorable, but it's his relationship with their boy that he's worried about. ❝that's going to be a problem.❞

❝i a-actually don't mind..❞ eleven lowered his head down and fumbled with his fingers. ❝little sushi wants me to be friends with sian, i'll do that for him.❞

with both xiaojun and yangyang cooing at what their little boy just said, hendery was left out by snorting, holding back a laugh because of what eleven had said. ❝there's a big storm coming for you.❞

the two rolled their eyes at how the ceo was giving out hints to their boy t his early in life, making them take in a deep breath and hold their conscience back from getting back at hendery who's laughing at how done they looked right now.

being the first one to compose himself, xiaojun exhaled a sigh and then realized the tie on the student's uniform not angled properly. ❝yang, come nearer.❞

humming in a confused tone, the student did what he was told nonetheless. he leaned forward and was startled for a short while at how their faces got dangerously close, then he realized that the older's purpose was to fix his school tie and not to kiss him.

well, he can always change that, right?

❝there, it's all—❞ right. that's why, he didn't hesitate to smash their lips together with his hand going up to his nape and having his thumb rub his visible adam's apple. that earned a low hum coming from xiaojun, but he didn't push away so it was enough explanation for yangyang to know that the both of them wanted it.

and to think it can't get a little more heated than that, they only pulled away for a second just to breath and have their lips connected back again in an instant, with xiaojun leading it. it takes yangyang a second to be bold in initiating intimate moments like this, and it also takes him a millisecond to submit and give himself in.

just as they were about to have tongues involved, hendery was there to save the day. by it, meaning their kid's innocence. ❝so, are we going to forget that eleven is just sitting right next to dejun?❞

yangyang and xiaojun then widened their eyes and didn't waste a moment to pull away with their faces turning bright red. and as they were dealing with the embarrassment, eleven sat there looking like he just saw the world blowing up. ❝should i pretend that i didn't see it or..❞

since the two were still in their thoughts about feeling the kiss, hendery did the honors to answer it in behalf of how they would educate the kid. ❝yes, for the sake of your innocence. however, if you get curious about it, you can always come to dad and ask for more tips on how to kiss—❞

❝alright, we are already here!❞ yangyang saved another round of hendery tainting their boy as he can finally see the school gates. ❝i'll get going now!❞

❝so, dejun gets a kiss but i don't?❞ pulling the car over, the ceo then let out a scoff. ❝i'm not saying that you're unfair, but i'm saying that you have your favorites—❞

and to shut him up, yangyang gave him what he wants, a kiss. but not a soft one, he showed his irritation by biting the older's bottom lip before kissing it softly. that was just a short kiss, but it definitely felt like a bliss for the ceo.

he can't even help but comment, ❝ooh, feisty.❞

having enough of his jokes this early, the student gave him a hard smack on his chest before shuffling from his seat and opening the door to his right. ❝by the way, dejun ge.❞

lifting his head up from being called, xiaojun raised a brow with a hum. ❝hm?❞

❝you're my boyfriend already,❞ the student said with a smile, getting out of the car. ❝no more questions.❞

❝but—❞ and before he can say a word, the door was shut closed and they could see the student rushing inside the school gates that had his friends waiting for him.

starting the engine, hendery nodded his head as if he was making a point. ❝and mom said my confession with yangyang is boring, wait till she knows that he would prefer no surprises and get straight to the point.❞

xiaojun turned to the ceo who's driving. ❝is he like that?❞

❝believe me, he was the reason why my surprise for him was ruined and it became a plain old confession.❞ the student ruined it on purpose by already guessing what he had up on his sleeves, ❝but nonetheless, i got his sweet yes.❞

hearing that honestly made xiaojun's heart skip a beat. it might not be what he expected it to be, but at least their relationship is finally settled and sure. that's more than what he ever wanted.

❝dada, you have a big smile on your face.❞ the boy beside him then pointed out.

it managed to get xiaojun away from his pile of thoughts. ❝yeah, dada looks weird, right?❞

❝no,❞ scooting closer to the adult, eleven hugged the male's arm. ❝seeing dada smile makes me happy.❞

and if things can't get any better. ❝dada is also happy, baby.❞

that sight was witnessed by hendery and he was being a smiling mess by the driver's seat. he might not shown it yet, but whatever this mess he had put himself into, it is the great decision in his life. ❝oh, and dejun?❞

❝what is it?❞ the said male answered as he was in the middle of putting eleven down on to his lap.

❝mom called me this morning and kept on reminding me about the apology?❞ turning to his left, hendery waited for the red light so that he can put the vehicle to a halt and have a proper conversation with him. ❝what apology?❞

❝ah, the one with kun ge and hansol hyung.❞ xiaojun can't help but laugh as he remembered how many times the ceo's mother bowed down to chant countless of "sorry"s to them and their whole family for causing a scene.

hendery raised a brow. ❝what about it?❞

❝hansol once worked under the a feared organization.❞ he tried not to break down in to details as he didn't want to make a fuss about it.

but instead, it got hendery more curious. ❝and?❞

❝he was part of a mafia, that's why she felt the need to apologize, especially for almost hurting kun ge.❞

❝wait, what—❞

🦋

❝jaemin, stop staring at me like that.❞ yangyang said, having his brows knitted at the male sitting right across him. ❝it's creeping me out.❞

dropping his spoon, jaemin clasped his hand real loud that it mayhaps caught other's attention. ❝are we not going to talk about how we are missing out on yangyang's life so much? like—❞

doing the honors, renjun took hold of the hem of his boyfriend's uniform and pulled him down harshly. ❝it's his life, who are we to meddle with it?❞

❝disney is right.❞ jeno said, also holding their boyfriend down.

seems like they are not the only ones missing yangyang's life, it looks like he is also missing out on a lot from them. ❝we're giving him a new nickname now?❞

taking his attention away from the past subject, jaemin went to butt in with their conversation. ❝he's the one who suggested for the movie marathon, but provoked us to do something else instead.❞

❝i lost the bet and it was at the balcony!❞ renjun said, raising his voice a little bit higher. ❝i can't risk my neighbors finding out that i'm still watching disney movies!❞

❝i told him that watching disney has not age limit,❞ jeno shrugged, ❝he won't listen to me.❞

❝you three did it at the balcony!?❞

renjun leaned forward and slapped his hand over the younger's mouth, ❝you fucking shut up if you don't want me to expose you to my boyfriends about that wet dream you had about your boyfriends.❞

yangyang then let out a muffled gasp when he remembered that time he panicked on not knowing what to do. ❝don't you dare.❞

❝try me.❞ renjun said with a smirk.

❝so, are we not going to remind them that we are still here?❞ jeno cleared his throat, also getting their attention.

jaemin lightly smacked his arm. ❝nono, hush! the babies are talking.❞

the two's glaring eyes now went over to jaemin, threatening him with it. and sure enough, it made the cotton candy gulp and zip his mouth as he didn't want to handle the both of them.

❝hey, yang—❞ a student then stopped by midway towards their table as soon as he saw someone familiar.

and it was no other than na jaemin, who now had his eyes widened and world breaking down to pieces as soon as he saw this certain person. ❝sweet mother of cheeseballs, i forgot that he still existed.❞

with both jeno and renjun confused as to why their boyfriend just said that, yangyang waved his hand and greeted the younger student, being friendly as he is. ❝sup, sungchan!❞

looks like after that event, these two got closer for some unknown reason. but then sungchan only had his eyes on jaemin as he really found him familiar. ❝weren't you the one who barged inside the event and ruined a possible proposal—❞

❝okay, listen here, it wasn't a proposal to begin with.❞ he said, standing up and approaching the younger's direction, scaring him with his stern expression. ❝and if you dare spread that around the campus then i'll make sure to haunt you down even in your sleep. not to mention, i know about your small crush towards that new transfer student from japan. now, you don't want me to leak out that information, would you?❞

now being threatened by it, sungchan took a step back. ❝how the fuck—❞

❝i know everything, jung sungchan.❞ he smirked, being proud at how he just asked information about him from their batch just to have something to blackmail the younger with. ❝i'm not na jaemin for nothing.❞

❝what are they talking about?❞ jeno squinted his eyes at them before turning his head to the youngest chinese, hoping to get an answer from him.

but he only received a shrug. ❝oh, nothing. you guys did miss a lot.❞

❝i'm not even going to ask.❞ renjun knew neither of them would tell him about it and he can't just use violence all the time. ❝by the way, graduation is just next month.. your parents went back to china. which one of of your boyfriends are you going to allow to attend the ceremony?❞

❝i have to choose?❞ yangyang chuckled, stealing a chicken nugget from the older's tray. ❝why let one of them attend when i can have my own family to be there?❞

renjun scoffed at that bold statement. ❝are you going to tell me that you're going to let the whole school know that you have a child?❞

maybe that's exactly what he plans to do, let them know that he has a kid, most especially, he has two loving boyfriends.

❝oh, it's sweet fathers.❞ jaemin suddenly spoke all of a sudden, as if he had read the narration inside the younger's head. ❝just incase no one has corrected you about it yet.❞
