Chapter Text
As soon as he had opened his eyes, Seungcheol was expecting Jihoon’s face coming into view but not today, instead he was greeted by the grinning face of their adopted son Chan.
“G’morning.” Chan said scooting closer to his father.
“Good morning kid.” Seungcheol replied fussing his son’s hair. “Where’s your other dad?” he asked. Chan was about to answer when at that moment, Jihoon entered the room while holding a spatula on his right hand and a frilly apron around his waist.
“Wake up sleepyheads.” Jihoon said waving the spatula around for a little effect. “Neither of you two wants to be late, right?”
“Too sleepy.” Seungcheol groaned while tightening his hold around his son who mimicked the gesture.
“Chan, you’ll be late for your playdate with Hansol.” Jihoon smirked knowing it was working when Chan’s head popped into view. “His mother said that he’s been looking forward all week just to see you again.”
“Dad, wake up.” Chan snapped and shook his dad’s lying figure. “Dad.” The boy groaned.
“Aren’t you a bit young to have a crush?” Seungcheol asked with a teasing smirk. “You should stay with us first Channie.”
Chan gasped and turned red. “I don’t have a crush on him.”
“Sure, sure.” Seungcheol replied and carried his son towards the dining room where Jihoon was already done setting the table
“Make sure you eat it all.” Jihoon said placing a stack of pancakes in front of Chan. “And don’t go overboard with the syrup. We don’t want a repeat of last time.”
“It’s too much.” Chan whined. “Can I at least split with Papa Coups?”
Jihoon and Seungcheol exchanged glances with the latter being more confused. “Papa Coups?”
“And you’re Daddy Woozi.” Chan said pointing his fork at Jihoon’s direction.
Jihoon gaped and managed to drop the spatula he was holding. “Who?” he asked eyebrows creased. “You’re letting him watch too much TV again Cheol.” Jihoon glared at the still shocked and confused male.
“You don’t like it.” Chan’s expression suddenly dropped and his eyes averted to the floor.
“No, it’s not that Chan.” Seungcheol immediately walked to his son’s side. “We were just surprised, that’s all. I’m sure your Daddy Woozi finds it cute.” He then turned to his husband with a frantic look.
“Right.” Jihoon chuckled nervously. “It’s… Cute.” He laughed sounding airy. “We like it actually.”
“How did you make it up though?” Seungcheol asked.
“I just dreamed about it last night.” Chan began to look up and studied his parents’ expressions. “Do you really like it?”
Jihoon and Seungcheol nodded together and Chan began to smile widely. “Okay, let’s keep it that way.” Chan said and the parents once again nodded in response.
“See you tonight.” Seuncgcheol said once they were out of the house.
“Don’t be home late or I’ll lock you out again.” Jihoon replied.
“That was just one time Jihoonie.” Seungcheol kneeled down to match his son’s height. “Have fun with your crush.” He said ruffling his son’s hair and chuckled when Chan blushed.
“Papa Coups!”
“Just don’t get into trouble “ Seungcheol ruffled his son's hair again and stood up to kiss Jihoon on the forehead. “Don’t get into trouble too.”
“I won’t.” Jihoon replied. “Go before you’re late.”
They said their goodbyes and walked in opposite directions.
Days like today was a normal day for the Choi-Lee Household.
