Chapter 124 (1/1)
Hoshi opened his suitcase before looking around his room. He let out a sigh as the next day arrived and he was off work to start the moving process. He walked into his closet and looked at his clothes. He picked up a few suits along with a casual outfit, folding them neatly in his suitcase. He then packed a few notebooks and books alongside the bag, slumping his shoulder as he picked up his tiger plush. He stroked the head and sat down on his bed. He closed his eyes as he fell onto his side, resting his head on his bed. "I don't wanna go.." He muttered, a tear forming while his body curled. A knock on his door pulled him out of his state, sitting up on the bed and wiping the tear quickly. He watched the door open and then he saw a little girl on her fours at the bottom of the door. "Uncle Hoshi~ We're going to miss you~" Hoshi heard Jeonghan's voice on the other side. However, he changed his voice to being a little girl voice. Hoshi chuckled and walked up to the door, opening it up the rest of the way to see Jeonghan on his fours with the other girl on his back. "Don't be a stranger, come in." Hoshi said. Hoshi took the girl on Jeonghan's back and sat down with her. He noticed the mole. "Zhenzhu, have you been a good girl? Hm?" He asked, playing with her little dress. Jeonghan sat beside him, pushing the suitcase a little. "I see you're mostly packed." He commented. "You don't want to bring much?" He asked, sitting Jinju on his knee and letting the girls poke at each other with small giggles. "I don't want to bring my entire room, I'm coming back in three months." Hoshi said, looking at the little bow clamp in the girl's hair. "This is my home." He smiled. Jeonghan hummed and let the girl punch his chest playfully. "You don't want to move away when you marry Jisoo? You don't have to stay here if you don't want to." He said, of course he wants the kids to stay with him. However, privacy and his own life are understandable things to want when you grow up. "I want to stay here, I don't want to go anywhere else." He said, letting the girl put her arms around his neck. "I've been obedient, I've been paying some of the bills for dad, and I've been making it to dinner every night. Why should I have to leave? What did I do wrong?" He asked, hugging the girl lightly. Jeonghan shrugged. "There comes a time in every young adult's life that they want to leave their parents. It's only natural, Hoshi." He said, watching Zhenzhu kiss Hoshi's neck before playing with his hair. "Well I suppose that time hasn't come yet." Hoshi said. "There were times when I was a teenager that I just didn't want to come home and study. I wanted to go to the park or just run around a little more around the property. But there wasn't ever a time that I never wanted to come home." He felt his hair being pushed up. Jeonghan looked at Jinju's yawning mouth. "Well if you do find life in Seoul to be better, I understand." He said, letting the girl fall asleep on his chest. "I know I can't keep all of you here forever. I'm pretty sure Minghao's getting tired of hearing about Woozi and Yeosang." He lightly chuckled. "True.." Hoshi smirked. "But honestly, I thought you would be exploding hearing about me moving." He brought up. Jeonghan saw Zhenzhu was on the verge of sleeping too. "I was a little upset at the time.. But you know? I think we've had some pretty good memories together. I want you to be able to have memories of your own that you can bring back and tell us over dinner." Jeonghan smiled. Hoshi gave a small smile back. "I don't want our memories to end here, Dad. I want to make memories with these little girls," He started, "and Hyunjae too. I want to watch them grow up and see what kind of person they'll be in the future." He continued with an ambitious smile. Jeonghan pinched the boy's cheek. "There's my tiger," He said, "finish your work in Seoul and hurry back here so that you don't miss more of their growth." Hoshi nodded with a big smile. "Just think, by the time I get back, Hyunjae's going to be one years old and wobbling around." He chuckled. "I'll make sure Cheol's more on his game when it comes to reading documents." Jeonghan winked.
Meanwhile, Seungkwan looks at the vocal class. They entered the theater to make sure they knew their positions, along with Sungmin evaluating the situation. "Woozi made us a forty-line ballad," Sungmin started, "so we're going to do this to the best of our ability. He put a lot of work into it, so show a little more spirit." He said, looking at Jongho who had a scowl on his lips. "Why do I have to sing with this crane?" He asked, pointing at the taller. Seonghwa looked down with narrowed eyes. "Jongho, I am a stork child." Sungmin said with a smile. "My brother Kyuhyun and his wife Solji are also stork children. So if you don't mind, save the degrading terms for when you're at home complaining to your empty apartment." He said, all the while having a cute smile. Seungkwan had an impressed eyebrow. "I'll start playing now." He informed, sitting down at the piano. Woozi taught him the keys to press for this song as the crow isn't able to play for them during practice due to working with Yeosang. As he played, each member of the class did their parts. Reluctantly, even Jongho sang along with Seonghwa, harmonizing at the end of their stanza. Sungmin smiled. "That was very good," He said when the singing was over, "you may all rest your voices, I know you were practicing a lot before you got here." He continued, waving his hands to signal breaktime. Seonghwa made his way to the other boy, leaning against the piano with a smile. "Hi, Seungkwan." He greeted. Under different circumstances, this scene would appear creepy. The taller is just there smiling at him. "Hey, I really liked your singing." Seungkwan said, noticing Seokmin walking up to them. "Yours too, Dokyeom." He said. Seonghwa leaned a bit closer. "Your playing was good too, I didn't know you could play the piano." He commented. "Woozi's taught me a few songs, but that's as far as that goes." Seungkwan said, scratching his neck with blushed cheeks. The taller bent lower. "Well it was beautiful, just like the player." He said. Seungkwan chuckled. "Cheesy.." He hid his smile. "What has you all chuckles, hm?" Seonghwa asked. Seokmin has an amused smile, however it went down when a certain not-bird approached. "He's probably laughing at how small your downstairs is." Jongho said with folded arms. Seungkwan looked back at him with a blank expression. Seokmin had a mirrored look too. "For your information, Jongho, Seonghwa is just perfect. He's amazing and strong in bed, so go home and do your blankets." He said in a sassy tone. Jongho huffed. "Whatever.." He muttered as he walked away from the piano. Seonghwa looked down at Seungkwan, still having his wide eyes. "Seungkwan, we haven't done anything like that.." He said, Seokmin tilting his head. "I know, I just wanted to get him away." Seungkwan said. "Better hope that Jeonghan doesn't hear about your lie, he might take it as truth." Seokmin commented. Seungkwan looked between the two. "Will either of you tell him?" He asked. "No." They said in unison. Seungkwan smiled proudly. "We have nothing to worry about." He folded his arms.
Seonghwa looked down and shifted his eyes away from the brothers. "I see.." He said, scratching his neck as he tried to mentally beat the thought out of his head - the thought of Seungkwan being pleasured by him. "Mhm," Seungkwan nodded, "I think Sungmin's gearing up to regroup. Have fun singing and don't kill Jongho, okay?" He held Seonghwa's shoulder, smiling up at the other. Seonghwa didn't look away from the diva. "Can't promise that it won't get ugly. San's not here to stop us now." He mentioned as he motioned to the unguarded door of the auditorium. Seungkwan huffed. "I don't need a guard when I have you. Now be good." He waved off. Seokmin chuckled. "You guys are cute," He commented, "come on, big bird, let's go." He pushed Seonghwa to take the lead to the stage.
A couple streets away, Yeosang rolls up his tape measure. He puts it in the bag before putting it in the pocket of his apron. He looks over at Woozi who is working on fixing a hole in someone's hat. "How's it going, Woozi?" He asked, leaning on the counter. Woozi shrugged and accidentally poked his thumb. "I feel like I should have been studying this stuff before helping out." He said honestly, looking at the other crow for a moment before looking down at his work. "You?" He asked, picking up the scissors. Yeosang watched Woozi tie the thread before snipping. "Just waiting for the next customer. I don't have mom's planner, so I don't know if we have any appointments today." He said, cracking his neck and watching Woozi smile at his work, despite the countless times his thumb was used as a pincushion. They then hear the bell on the door go off. "Well then, I know what you'll be busy with." Woozi said with a devious smile. Yeosang smirked and got off of the counter. He walked out of the room and saw San looking around. "What brings you here, San?" Yeosang asked, putting his hand in his pocket nonchalantly. He could hear Woozi coming to the door, he didn't have to see Woozi to know he was at the threshold eyeing the dove. San smiled and waved. "Hey, I have an appointment. The police station is getting new uniforms." He said, taking his jacket off. "Seriously? Or do you just want to be touched like the last time?" Yeosang asked with a blank expression. San pouted his lips for a moment. "No, not this time." He answered. "Changkyun is coming after me, and then another two tomorrow." He explained. Woozi hummed. "Wouldn't want the whole force to be out getting tailored while crime is going on." He said. San nodded. "Exactly, dad wanted the weaker links to be tailored first, so.." Yeosang tilted his head. "Seriously, just deck your dad already." He said, shaking his head and motioning San to go to the platform. San stood still and obeyed Yeosang's motions when he gave them. "I would like to at some points, but obviously I don't want to hurt him." San said with a sigh. "Not like it would hurt him much anyway, I'm not as strong as the others." Yeosang hummed and wrote down numbers before going on his knees. "Can't please everybody, I suppose.." He muttered as he took San's waist line. Woozi narrowed his eyes on the dove. "You better not be getting any ideas about Yeosang being on his knees like that." He said, folding his arms. San looked back at the shorter momentarily. "N-no, it never came to my mind, actually.." He said, looking down at Yeosang. "Mingi is all I need, no other crow is on my mind romantically." He continued, closing his eyes. "No other crow? Mingi's not a stork kid." Yeosang said, taking the boy's inseam. "He would be a crow if he was a stork kid," San answered, "and I'm loyal to him. You know how doves get when they find that one person." He said, eyeing Yeosang seriously. Yeosang raised his eyebrows. "Not too much, actually. Dokyeom kinda gives me these glares.." He started, looking up at San. "What?" Woozi asked, getting off of the wall. Yeosang swallowed and finished measuring the other. "When we were in chapter three the other day," Yeosang started, referencing them reading Seokmin to bed, "when we were reading the wedding ceremony of Medelee and Jeffery, he was really close to actually kissing me." He said, rolling the tape back up. Woozi frowned. "What about Sungjae though?" He muttered. "I mean, to our knowledge, Sungjae and Dokyeom are just dating." Yeosang. "Just like when we were just dating, I had temptations of touching San." He confessed, making the dove beside him step back. Woozi hummed. "That's right, step far away from him." He said as he walked up to Yeosang and yanked him closer. "And I'm sure Dokyeom was just into the story. Don't think he was flirting with you." He said. Yeosang pursed his lips with a nod. "We'll have your uniform ready within two weeks, please send Changkyun when you can." Yeosang looked at San. San picked up his jacket and bowed. "Good bye." He left the building. Woozi breathed out. "Seriously though.. Don't cheat on me with my brother." He looked up at Yeosang. "I would never," Yeosang puts his hands on Woozi's shoulders, "I'm a taken man and a father, there's no room for anyone else like that." He whispered, putting their lips together. Woozi pulled them back into the next room. Yeosang's soft hands feel down the boy's shoulders down to his hands. He holds those hands before pinning them on the wall, pressing his body against the older's body. He heard that little moan, and he kissed the shorter's neck as his hands moved to Woozi's hips. "Damnit, we can't do this here.." Woozi muttered, pulling Yeosang closer anyway. Yeosang sighed and nodded. "I'm sorry.." He apologized for turning Woozi on when they can't do anything. "It's.. it's fine.." Woozi said. "You better do me right tonight, you hear?" He pointed at the taller, poking him to make space between them. "I'll go all out for my crow." He whispered, taking a nip at Woozi's collar bone. Woozi moaned when the boy sucked there, making a big, red mark. "Th-the bell rang." Woozi said when the door opened. Yeosang pulled back and smiled. "I love you, Woozi." He gave a set of finger hearts. Woozi jokingly pushed them away. Yeosang told his rising dick to shut up as he walked out of the backroom. Woozi sits down at the desk and sighs. I didn't know not doing it so often would make me so crazy.. He held his forehead.
Hoshi doesn't want to leave. He'll come back and stay at home~
Ugh, Jongho and Seonghwa, these two..
