hair messed up and poking out to every direction, having that tired expression, and a sigh escaping from his mouth, xiaojun was seated at the sofa with his legs crossed and a dog accompanying him from behind. ❝help me, bella. i have been abducted.❞

it did look like he was. walking or simply strolling around the park had already became xiaojun's morning routine and that was what he was doing thirty minutes ago. feeling the calming breeze, having fun being alone, and only having peace in mind. not until a beagle dog came running towards him, chasing him to no end. xiaojun already had an idea as to whose dog it is and he knew he had to run away immediately.

his escape plan failed when he bumped to someone. that someone was no other than the cute guy and even though he couldn't resist him, he knew what he was up to. and so, he ran away once again, till he bumped to another person. if the cute guy was there, his ceo boyfriend is also present. just as xiaojun was about to make a sprint out of there, he was already being tightly trapped around the ceo's arms and the student followed them from behind while carrying their dog.

it other's perspective, they looked like friends who are playing. in xiaojun's side, he was being kidnapped.

right at this moment, he's already settled down the sofa at the living room looking like he had just survived a wrestling match. let's just say, hendery wasn't gentle in carrying him and yangyang was doing nothing but laugh at how xiaojun is struggling to get away from him hold. ❝i should report this.❞

coming out from the kitchen with a cloth in hand, hendery had his brows raised while approaching the tired secretary. ❝you should be thankful that we are inviting you for breakfast.❞

snapping his head towards the direction of the voice, xiaojun had his brows furrowed and he surely wasn't happy seeing the ceo. ❝thankful? i was kidnapped!❞

"because you won't accept any of my offers so i decided to get you by force!"

a voice from the kitchen was heard.

hendery then gave the upset male a smile, ❝what he said.❞ shrugging before stepping up in front of his secretary.

seeing him crouched down across him confused xiaojun in so many levels. ❝what are you doing?❞

instead of answering him, the ceo lifted his hand up while bringing the soft fabric with him and started to wipe the secretary's face with it. surprised by that action, xiaojun moved back and held the man's wrist to stop him from whatever he was doing.

❝what—❞

❝you're sweating.❞ hendery removed his secretary's hand from his wrist and continued to wipe the male's sweat with the cloth he's holding. ❝and you're a mess.❞ he said as he eyed how disheveled he was looking.

rolling his eyes, xiaojun snatched the cloth from the man's hand and did the job in wiping his sweat. ❝wouldn't have looked like this if you guys just asked me out nicely.❞

❝nicely asking you out won't work, i already told you that.❞

xiaojun widened his eyes as he felt fingers stroking on his hair. rubbing the cloth to his face a couple more times, the secretary raised his head up and saw the cute guy smiling down at him while fixing his hair. his face then heat up at the contact of his hands on his hair and also how the position they had looked sweet.

but something snapped xiaojun out from his thoughts, since when were they this caring towards him? hendery wiping his sweat, and yangyang fixing his hair.

❝am i dreaming?❞ the secretary then uttered out while still looking up at the student.

yangyang's laugh then echoed inside the quiet living room. ❝what made you say that?❞

❝because you look like that angel from my dream.❞

and xiaojun was back again with being flirty, yangyang should have expected it coming. hendery then had his brows met at the middle at the words his secretary was saying before standing up and taking a grip on to the guy's shirt. a gasp got out from xiaojun's mouth when he felt himself almost being lifted up from the sofa and he was now forced to look at his angry ceo who's this near to throwing a punch.

❝know your limits, dejun.❞ hendery threatened.

❝you're overreacting too much. nothing will happen if i flirt with him.❞ xiaojun groaned trying to take his hands off from his shirt but then smirked at an idea in mind. ❝unless, i made his heart flutter with it.❞

that then made hendery scoff before gritting his teeth. ❝you—❞

❝okay, ge, put him down.❞ yangyang had already walked around the lengthy sofa and placed a hand on to his boyfriend's shoulder and pulled him away from the secretary who didn't look like he wasn't backing down at whatever fight they had. ❝why are you two always fighting? god.❞

huffing, hendery ran a hand through his hair before facing the younger male and wrapping his arms around his waist.

yangyang questioned at how he was suddenly clingy to him. ❝ge— hm..❞

but he didn't even get a word out because hendery had already have he gap between them closed and lips all locked together. finally finishing wiping his face with the cloth he snatched from the ceo, xiaojun looked up and then had his brows twitched at the sight of the two making out right in front of his salad. how hendery had his arms securely wrapped around the younger's waist, how yangyang responded to the kiss in sync with the older, and how their bodies are glued together.

xiaojun was about to click his tongue at how the ceo is venting his frustration to that kiss but having his eyes focused on to their lips moving in a not so holy way and even having their tongue getting involved, he was reminded of something.

those lips once touched his.

hearing the guest's groan was enough for yangyang to snap back to his senses. pulling away with force, he showed a pout and slapped his boyfriend's arm. ❝don't do that in front of people.❞

a smirk was shown on the ceo's face, leaning close till he had their lips touch again. it was in another minute that he pulled away to speak. ❝but you kissed back.❞

❝that's because!❞ with a red face, yangyang squirmed his way out of his boyfriend's hold and noticed how flustered the secretary is. oh my, they must have scarred him ❝i'll be at the kitchen. food will be ready in a minute.❞

although, they only ordered food from outside since they took their whole morning kidnapping xiaojun.

hendery gave him a smile, watching the younger walk away towards the kitchen, before changing his mood and glaring down at his secretary. he then had his eyes widened in curiosity as he saw how his cheeks were heating up while staring out of space. he actually expected for him to shout at them for not respecting his single ass but instead, he was flustered.

❝i g-guess i'll g-go with y-yang—❞ xiaojun sunk from the sofa when hands trapped both his side.

standing there with judgemental eyes, hendery had his body bent down to match the male's height as he was sitting down and had his both arms on the side to prevent him from getting out. the two locked gazes and xiaojun could only gulped at how he found him intimidating.

it probably is because he doesn't trust him to be with yangyang. yeah, that's definitely it. ❝i'll j-just help p-prepare our b-breakfast.❞

but hendery didn't say a word as he just leaned closer, their nose almost touching. ❝why are you looking like that?❞

not having the courage to stare straight right to his eyes, xiaojun had his eyes wandering everywhere but the ceo in front of him. ❝l-looking like w-what?❞

this wasn't supposed to happen, xiaojun was confident in everything. he even had the guts to flirt with yangyang even though he had his boyfriend standing just right there. but why is that whenever it's hendery provoking him, he gets all flustered and can't seem to find the right words to say.

❝like you're going to blow up.❞ hendery had a lot of guesses in mind but one specific assumption made him smirk, leaning closer till he got to the male's ear. he then made sure to have his warm breath ghost over his ear before whispering. ❝do you also want a kiss?❞

that was enough for xiaojun to muster up the strength to push him away. with a blush still visible on his face, the secretary had his cheeks all puffed as he stood up from the sofa. ❝i do not!❞

shrugging, hendery followed the flustered male from behind. ❝for all i know, you're just jealous because i'm kissing yangyang that way.❞

xiaojun stopped his tracks just to turn around face the ceo, pointing a finger at him. ❝or, it could be me getting jealous because you get to kiss yangyang.❞ seeing his brows raised made the secretary gain confidence into teasing him. ❝i wonder how his lips would feel on mine—❞

he didn't even know they were near at a wall. xiaojun flinched when he heard a loud thud from beside him where hendery had his hand slammed on to that wall behind him. the secretary couldn't help but scoff internally. he was starting to complain at how the ceo loved slamming so much.

❝don't press my buttons, midget.❞ hendery threatened, voice as stern as ever just to scare xiaojun.

but he's xiaojun, he liked how he gets into his nerves easily. and since he wanted to annoy him more, the smaller male gave him an innocent smile while poking his index finger on the ceo's chest. ❝boop, i pressed a button.❞

"dejun? can you help me with something?"

and the said male was saved from death as soon as yangyang called. with a sly smile, xiaojun gently pushed hendery away and left him there as he made his way towards the kitchen. not like he wanted to stay long under his furious gaze, he honestly felt his insides shuddering in fear at how he looked like he won't hesitate to hurt him.

❝what is it— yang?❞ the secretary panicked, rushing towards the younger who's standing by the sink with his eyes closed. ❝hey?❞

❝i got something in my eye.❞ the student sniffled.

it made xiaojun overthink as to why yangyang would specifically call him and not his boyfriend to handle this. knowing that he wasn't at a right time to think about it, the male shrugged his shoulders before gripping on to the student's shoulder. ❝open your eyes.❞

tears welling up, yangyang followed his words and saw how worried xiaojun looked. the male then had a finger under his chin to get the younger to look at him before he started to blow on to the cute guy's eye. just when he felt that thing out of his eyes, yangyang froze from his place seeing at how close the distance of their faces was. xiaojun too, but neither of them planned to pull away.

there was it again, butterflies inside his stomach. yangyang had always wondered why he'd feel this way towards someone other than his boyfriend, not to mention it being hendery's secretary.

❝are you two just going to stare at each other?❞ a voice cut the two off from their moment, making them turn their head towards the figure that's settling himself down the dining area. ❝because i'm going to start eating.❞

awkwardly moving away from each other, yangyang muttered a quiet thanks and all xiaojun gave him a small nod before the both of them started to make theirselves comfortable down the dining area. the student sitting right beside his boyfriend and the secretary right across them. hendery then raised a brow at how awkward the two were, finding the tension quite suspicious, but didn't say a word about it anyways. the three just started to silently eat and just when xiaojun was about to open up a topic, yangyang flinched from his place and lowered his down only to see a beagle dog trying to get his attention.

❝is bella hungry?❞ getting up from his seat, yangyang took the dog and carried it up as he was at a right distance from the table filled with their breakfast. ❝did gege forget to feed you? ryry ge is bad!❞

seeing him do the baby talk towards the dog honestly made their hearts go soft. both xiaojun and hendery had smile plastered on their face as they watched the youngest male carry the dog around till he reached to a cupboard that had the dog's food. xiaojun's eyes then trailed down towards a specific someone and it only got his smile to widen at the sight.

❝you should really smile often.❞ he didn't even know he had already said it out loud.

getting his attention, hendery darted his eyes at his secretary and had his brows furrowed upon seeing him slap his lips. ❝what?❞

❝n-nothing.❞ he groaned at the fact that he stuttered. not looking up to see how confused the ceo looked like right now, xiaojun started to shove food inside his mouth and munched on it with his cheeks all puffed.

it made hendery chuckle, but in a subtle way that xiaojun wouldn't hear nor see since he was looking down to his food.

❝by the way,❞ changing the topic, xiaojun first finished the food inside his mouth before gulping it down. ❝why does yangyang call you gege but not me? i'm clearly older than him.❞ he asked, now looking at hendery who's coughing at the question. ❝not like i mind though, i'm just curious.❞

hendery grabbed a glass of water and started to chug on it, not forgetting to glare at xiaojun for being the cause as to why he was choking. placing the glass down, the ceo opened his mouth to say something, probably to curse at him, but the secretary had beat him to it with another question.

❝do you have a gege kink?❞

hendery had no idea what was going on inside that head of his but one thing is for sure, xiaojun is having fun pressing his buttons.

yangyang finished taking care bella with her food down on to her bowl. patting the dog's head, he stood up from crouching down the ground and gasped at the sight with his eyes also widened. ❝ge, don't choke dejun!❞

and that's how their morning started with xiaojun in the brink of living, hendery having both his hands wrapped around his secretary's neck, and yangyang trying to pull the two away from each other.

the siamese cat entered the kitchen, seeing the wonderful sight unfold but the cat didn't care. the siamese cat then decided that it was better to stay at the living room and have a peaceful morning than watch the three looking like they were about to flip the house upside down.
