"what the hell was that smell joshua hong?!"

joshua just cursed under his breathe after being startled at how loud and firm the prince voice that's approaching towards to his directions making him failed to turn the eggs over on its other side as it only made a loud sound of the burning food along with how the white smoke's getting thicker and thicker any minute plus the smell.. it smelled gross already. it took only the matter of seconds as he felt the prince's presence behind him until it went next to him and first thing the prince did was to hit joshua on his arms as he glared at him first before twitching the stove controller making the flames suddenly became moderate. 

"are you trying to burn the whole kitchen mister?! you're just only cooking some freaking eggs yet you set your flames into higher level!" then the prince shook his head as he pushed joshua aside and took over what he was doing. "you consider yourself an alpha yet you dont know how to cook? and how to simply just fry these eggs?!" 

joshua rolled his eyes. "i grew up inside the firm, your highness. do you expect me to cook there instead of doing business works?" 

the prince shot him a glance as he glared. "i was raised inside the palace where helpers and my eunuch was doing these things for me yet i know how to cook properly!" he defended himself as he started the cooking all over again making joshua just heave a sighed in defeat. 

"yeah whatever."

joshua couldn't do anything but to watch the prince do the things he supposed himself to do for he planned that it was only him who could eat the breakfast properly and left the prince with nothing to eat, but he just heave a sighed as it turned out the other way around. for his entire life living alone, its either the foods he was eating was from the deliveries he ordered onlines, thru takeouts, sometimes if hansol brought foods for him and most of the time, his mother was the one giving him foods and cooking for him that he tried to lasts for days so he wont be able to contact and deliveries by that time. 

this is the first time someone had cooked for him besides to his mother.. and that someone wasnt just an ordinary someone, because it is the prince... it is the prince he thought who doesn't know how to do household chores mostly cooking for the younger was raised inside the palace where his eunuch and helpers was the one doing these things for him which surprised him at the same time made himself somewhat mortified that the prince was right... he is an alpha yet he doesn't know how to cook or to even simply fry those freaking eggs.

the prince took only fifteen minutes to fry six eggs, hams and even that bacon that was placed on the countertop already as he served it in front of joshua, joshua who're sitting on the same chair he sat last night during their first dinner together inside this house, both arms folded on his chest level and was just waiting for the younger to finished what he was doing. the prince also gave him his plate and the loaf that was already at the dinning table since earlier before he sat across joshua. 

the prince laughed. "dont worry, your secrets safe with me plus promise mister, no judgment though you wasted five eggs at the same time." then the prince pointed using his point finger the burnt eggs joshua tried to cook earlier. "poor little five eggs."

"shut up your highness, you didnt see anything." he glared at the prince. 

but the prince could only laughed in return. "come on mister, eat your breakfast already or you'll gonna be late on your work." then the prince smiled at him as he cheerfully ate his breakfast.

once again, joshua heave a sighed in defeat before he started serving himself a breakfast because for the second time around this morning, the prince was right since he was going to get late if he wouldn't start moving and eat his breakfast already. both of them was just silent as they ate their breakfast and though they aren't talking to each other, joshua couldn't feel awkward, at all. it seemed like it is better if they were silent... but not when they both heard a sudden voice coming from the two person behind them calling the prince name in chorus making joshua scrunched his nose. 

"prince seokmin! your highness!" 

he saw how the prince face lift up in an instant as a wide smile crept into his face. the same smile, he saw from the prince last night. and the sudden happiness his expressive eyes was flushing... was the same. 

"seungkwan-ah, wonwoo-yah!" 

joshua saw the prince stood up as he jumped approaching those two persons he mentioned prolly was hugging them in excitement like as if they never saw each other more than a decade. joshua didnt mind the three persons behind him and he continued eating his breakfast, until he remembered something... he remember the way the prince said those words last night, that first rule. the rule number one. 

after joshua finished his eating, he washed the plates and utensis he used leaving the ones for the prince as he didn't know if the younger was done eating or not because he seemed intrigued and glued to his friends he was talking to on the salas. seungkwan was the first one who reacted upon seeing joshua was approaching their directions making wonwoo and seokmin jerked their heads to joshua. 

the alpha smiled. "can i borrow my fiance for a second? i just have something to say to him."

seungkwan nodded. "yes, mister hong, the prince is all yours."

joshua smiled at seungkwan before he jerked his head to the prince, gesturing him that he have something to say and they need some seconds of privacy. the prince signalled his two friends to wait for him for a minute before he walked with joshua heading to the right hallway from the salas, making sure that no one can see nor even hear them in this area. 

the prince arched him a brow. "what?" 

"rule number one, your highness..." joshua mumbled on the prince ear, making sure that seungkwan and wonwoo couldn't hear what they are saying.

seokmin's brows furrowed. "and what about it?" 

joshua heave a sighed. "you fucking broke it! you told me i am.. no, we are not allowed to let someone enter our house but who the hell are they?" 

"they're my friends!" 

"friends or not, it is written in that shitty rule you wrote last night." joshua complain more using his hoarse voice enough for the prince to swallowed hard because he could see the alpha on joshua. 

he pushed joshua away. "whatever you say, they're my friends." and the prince was about to walked passed by him when he got halted when joshua tried to touch him, prolly blocking his way. seokmin arched him a brow. "dont you have works to attend, mister? you better go now before you can break a rule."

the prince looked at him with determination in his eyes making joshua put down his hands he was supposed to touch the prince to halt him from walking away, as he moved aside letting the prince walk and have his freedom. and in the end, joshua just heave a sighed in frustration.
