*warning this is rated mature, there is a bit of swearing in this chapter.*
Ky woke up exactly 10 minutes before his alarm went off, on a Monday , to the sound of the mail truck pulling away. He wasn't sure what had woken him up but he wasn't happy. He'd been dreaming of a picnic,which be odd because he didn't normally dream about food, except it had been a double date. Him and Emma with Bell and Jake.
The mail truck. Ky pulled himself out of bed,sometimes it felt like his whole life was a contradiction, he kept his room immaculate, but hated the mornings. He was in shape. It didn't play sports. He liked murder mysteries but couldn't watch a scene from child's play if his life depended on it. He was a senior and he had never kissed someone. Well someone who counted, someone be liked. Ky untwisted his shorts and stretched, igniting any and all thoughts of Emma and Jake he'd decided instead to get a head start and make some break feast for Chloe and their parents.
Something to do in mind, instead of any - And all thoughts- Of Emma and Jake waking up. He opened his door and hopped down the stairs.
If Ky wasn't a morning person, his adoptive family where even worse. Ky didn't like the mornings because a lot of things changed in the morning. Change was something he thought he should be use to but wasn't. His family didn't like morning because as his father put it " Morning is A bunch of idiotic bitches from the city trying to get the most labor from the small towns" usually followed by " Monday mornings are the spawn of that fucker running hell " and " and don't use those words Chloe".
Either way the whole house hated mornings of any kind. Although, Mom handled them the best, and was most likely to be the cause of the clattering of pans in the kitchen.
"Hi mum." Ky smiled sitting at the isle in the kitchen.
She popped up from behind the counter, her faddd red hair pulled into wild bun as she peered at him over her wire glasses , " Good morning Honey! I just put the coffee on."
Ky wrinkled his nose,"Thanks mom, but I'll pass."
"Ok, Would you mind grabbing the mail? I think it just came in." She turned pulling a box of pancake mix out of a cub board.
" will do." Ky stood pushing his chair back in, closing a cabinet door mother had left open on his way out to the mail box. Wandering down their drive way he glanced across the road to Drakes house. There as no way he would be up before 12.
Jake lived the next street over, adjacent to Drakes. Sometimes Ky felt a bit jealous, an emotion he was no more comfortable with than the thought of rejecting Emma and Explaining why.
Which drifted into his mind just about as he got to the mail box. What would he tell Emma if she asked. He planned on telling her soon, maybe the next day at school, which was a Tuesday thanks to a teacher workshop day. "Oh hey-Sorry I'm not interested in you, Your boyfriend however." Yah that would go over well. Ky opened the mail box, glancing over to the house next door.
Dwain's house. Chloe's new boyfriend, and in Kys' expert big brother opinion- totally and completely unworthy of the title. Simple the guy was an idiot, he wasn't sure what Chloe saw in the guy. He wasn't bad looking, but Ky had yet to here the guy utter a fully formed sentence about anything besides football, and once a inappropriate joke. It was way to early to even consider coming up with how to deal with that guy. My stuck his hand into the mail box pulling out a stack of letters.
"Bill.Bill.Bill. Ominous black envelope.Bill." Ky stopped. That was quick, he thought flipping back to the black envelope, the address was written in white pen to be visible, in hand writing that was barely legible by any standards. But it was - kind of- in English , which was more than the last letter could offer. Ky grinned at the letter, he really hadn't expected Jae young to respond so quickly.
Taking the bills with him he sped walked to the house, no matter how excited he was it was still too early to run.
Ky set the bills on the table in a neat stack, dad was up know and Ky could hear Chloe shuffling around getting ready for the day. "Good morning, dad" Ky smiled sitting again at the counter, as mom pour more batter into the pan for pancakes.
Chloe came down the stairs and spotted the letter immediately, " I don't know why you two can't just text like the rest of the teen population.", she sighed jokingly. She loved getting letters and everyone in the room knew it. " so how's your bother doing?"
"I don't know I haven't read it yet." Ky tapped the letter o the counter.
" Are you going to read it?" Chloe asked sitting next to him.
Their mom turned from the stove pointing her spatula at Chloe, " first food."
" agreed." They replied in unison.
As they all sat at the table Chloe pokes at her sunny side up egg, looking about as awkward as Ky after he was sure that Jake had caught him staring. She was rambling about how Tae a Kpop idol went missing and that some people thought he was murdered, because of some criminal activity in the area;And Ky briefly sent a pray to anyone listening that Jaeyoung was safe.
After rambling for a few minutes it's with no respons she finally asked, " uhh, mom, dad? Can Dwain come over for dinner tonight?"
" sure. But how about tomorrow night after school?" Their father replied not missing a beat. Apparently Ky was the only one on the 'Dwain isn't good enough for Chloe boat' and he couldn't help make a little face.
"Ky are you going to bring someone too?" Mom said flipping her egg on top of her toast.
"Yeah, Probably."
"Is it possible." Chloe posited, " That my brother got a date?" She specifically avoided the words Girlfriend and boyfriend. Ky was almost impressed with how natural it sounded coming from Chloe's mouth.
He however had to go and open his big fat mouth. "not a very big selection of guys to choo-" He tried to say softly, for only Chloe to hear, but was just loud enough for everyone at the table to hear.
There was a brief pause as everyone at the table stoped what they were doing. Half the egg slid off moms toast landing half on half off the plate. Dad was mind sip of coffee his eyebrows furrowed. Chloe was about to cut up a pancake and looked like she wanted to facepalm but refrained.
"Kim, Honey, Is there something-?"
Ky shook his head. What the hell should he do now? It wasn't like they hadn't heard him. At least it could theatrically get worse. If this was a crappy romance he would have said that right as Jake walked into the room. Probably followed by Jake asking him to prom. And well his romance life was pretty crappy. He hadn't thought too much about what he was going to tell his parents. He wasn't scared of their reactions. They took Chloe being Bi-Ace extremely well. They were excepting people, he was more afraid of the fact, neither of his parents could keep anything on the down low.
"So..." Chloe set her fork down, " I think I'm full... What about you Ky?"
"Yes, so full, it tasted great Mom." Ky said almost knocking over his chair as he stood up. This was all much to awkward even for his standards, which included dousing himself in his lunch because he was starring into his best friends boner.
Ky made sure to pick up the black letter from the counter as he hurried to the stair case. Diving into his room and closing the door softly. Desperate for a distraction from his humiliation, he set to opening and translating the letter. A few bits were in English, but most was in Korean, Jaeyoung and his country of origin.
'Dear Young,
First off I don't have a boyfriend, secondly do you always look at his crotch? Is that like a daily thing for you? You have always been an idiot, but my idiot. If anything just tell him. I know you have the balls to do it. At least I hope you do. If I have the balls to kill than you have the balls to somehow tell him. Also I kidnaped some Kpop idol, I dunno why it he is still in my basement. Hyun should have taken him by now. I miss you. I'm bad with words as you know, But can't you get here any faster? This may possibly be my last letter for a long time. I have something I need to do. I don't want any harm to come to you. Please be safe and stop looking at his crotch. It's weird. I love you.
From your younger brother,
Jaeyoung'
Ky blinked away surprise. Was this Jaeyoung 'Staying out of trouble'?
