Seventeen as the 12 Dancing Princes (Seventeen Seoksoo story)

Chapter 11 - Mr Kim

A/N: I started writing another story in my drafts which is also a Seventeen story. It's not Barbie inspired, but it's based on one of those trashy Disney Channel films from the early 2010s. Idk yet whether I'll share it later here or not, but I really enjoy writing it and this just reminds me how much I actually love writing, but somehow I never really payed attention to this before I started writing stories here :) The story would have two pretty underrated main ships, SoonWoo (Hoshi x Wonwoo) and JiGyu (Woozi x Mingyu), so idk, if this idea pokes your interest don't be shy to tell me, so I'll know whether you guys are interested in some Disney Channel based book with these ships :D (you don't have to know the movie this time either to enjoy it, I'm saying this in advance)

Okay, let's continue! Also, thank you for the reads and votes and lovely comments again <3

'GOOD MORNING, GENTLEMEN!'

Okay, maybe Duke Rowan didn't exactly shout like that, but it was definitely hurting the princes' ears. They were all half asleep, leaning on the dining table. They were still tired from dancing the whole night.

'Good morning, Your Grace' they mumbled back.

'Wow, looks like you didn't sleep much' looked around the duke with his usual sour expression.

'We're good, thank you' spoke up Seokmin. As soon as he said that, Mingyu fell asleep on the chair next to him and fell face first in his porridge.

'You didn't go to sleep on time' concluded the duke. 'Desmond, wake them up!'

Desmond hit a chair to the ground which such force that it made Mingyu gasp and jump up from his seat with porridge on his face. Minghao quickly took his napkin to help his twin brother clean up.

'Okay, boys, let's hear, what did you do last night?' crossed his arms the duke as he started walking back and forth. Only the sound his shoes made were heard in the room.

Seokmin looked at Seungcheol who just slightly shook his head. He was right: Rowan would never believe them if they told him where they were. And even if he did, he'd do anything to prevent them from leaving again. They all stayed silent.

'Answer me!' demanded the duke again. Minghao finally managed to clean up Mingyu's face. Hansol was spacing out with drowsy eyes and messy hair. Seungkwan and Chan were bickering under the table, none of them realizing that Hansol was literally sitting between them. Or they just didn't care. Jeonghan was looking back at Duke Rowan with his resting bitch face.

'Where's our father?' asked randomly Jun. This made everyone else wonder.

'He wasn't feeling well so he didn't come to breakfast' said the duke. 'Now that I answered your question, you can answer mine.'

The boys exchanged looks between each other. Just then the butler saved them again.

'Your Grace' he opened the door. 'Mr Kim is looking for you.'

'Oh, yes, I've been waiting for him' hurried up Rowan. He stopped in the doorway. 'I want answers when I'm back' he warned and left together with Desmond and Brutus.

'I've never seen him hurry like that' snorted Jeonghan swinging on his chair.

'The king wants his sons to visit him' said the butler. They all jumped up hearing that and ran towards the door.

They entered their father's bedroom. He was still laying in bed, reading something. He looked up hearing his children enter.

'Look, who are here!' he smiled at them and put his book away.

'Hi Dad!' ran up the triplets to him and they jumped on the bed. Well, Seungkwan jumped, Hansol climbed and Chan was helped up by Seokmin.

'Are you ill?' asked Jeonghan worriedly.

'No, not at all, I was just feeling tired and didn't feel like having breakfast today' sighed the king.

'Dad, you won't believe what happened last night!' said Seungkwan excitedly.

'Last night! Don't even start! I'm so sorry boys, we were supposed to celebrate you guys' birthday and I fell asleep! It's unforgivable! Is it too late for me to give you your presents?' the king asked looking at his three youngest sons.

'It's not too late!' they shouted and giggled in sync.

Seokmin walked up to the window and looked outside. Mr Rowan was standing in the garden, talking to a tall man with silky black hair. Then he handed him something and the man gave something in return. He couldn't see from the window but it made him wonder.

'Thank you Dad!' he was brought back by the happy shouts of the triplets. He sighed. He had no reason to be suspicious of Duke Rowan after all. Yes, the man was strict and stern, but that was his job as their mentor. He decided to shrug it off for now, but something kept bothering him about the duke, and he needed to find out what.

Brutus was jumping around in the twelve princes' bedroom. The monkey opened every drawer, every box, taking out random stuff. He accidentally broke one of Jeonghan's music boxes, then took a book from Wonwoo's drawer. He yeeted it to the other side of the room after realizing that he can't read. Then he took one of Soonyoung's tennis balls and started playing with that.

Binnie was looking at the monkey from under Jihoon's bed. The cat was mad seeing that this annoying jumpy creature made a mess in his owners' room and he was determined to stop him.

Brutus then jumped on across every bed, until he stopped at Seokmin's, deciding that it was his time for a nap. He laid down on the pillow and fell asleep immediately. Binnie took this opportunity to jump onto the chest at the end of Seokmin's bed and make a sudden attack. The only problem was that the monkey was only pretending to be asleep and quickly got out of his way, making the poor cat hit the headboard hard.

'Oh, look who's here, Mr Tiger' mocked Brutus, standing on top of the headboard.

'Who said you can come in here?!' shouted Binnie.

'Let me think, who... Oh yeah, it was me.' Then Brutus jumped over to Seokmin's chest and took his pair of dance shoes from the top of it. 'What's this?'

'Go away, Brutus!'

'Make me' smirked the monkey. As Binnie attacked him again, he jumped off of the chest, with his legs pushing it open, making Binnie fall straight into the box. He tried to climb out, but he was too small.

'Put that down! It's not yours!' he shouted, finally climbing out of the chest and falling on the ground. Brutus was already running on the hallway with Seokmin's shoes.

'It's not yours either!' he shouted back. There was only silence after that.

A/N 2.0: Fun fact, this was originally a JunHao story, but I changed it to SeokSoo after I started writing. Then few days later SVT posted those cool pictures of Jun with a damn parrot on Twitter which would've fit the cobbler's character so perfectly and I was like why Universe why meee
(ﾉಥ益ಥ)ﾉ Btw Jisoo will be back soon!
