(Narrator POV)
The two monkey's continued their date as the night dragged on and eventually they packed up and started heading back to the TEA since MK had told Wukong that he and Mei headed back since things seemed to be going smoothly. They had used Wukong's cloud to head back so they could look at the stars as they passed by a little longer and when they landed on the deck, Mei was there to greet them. "Hey guys! Seems y'all had a good night." "Yeah, we did. Where's MK?" Macaque questioned, since Wukong told him that both Mei and MK were there at the waterfall before they left. Mei shrugged.
"He said he needed to go do something before heading inside, so I waited here to make sure that you both got back to the TEA okay." and this caused both monkey's to be concerned since any time MK had to do something, there was almost always something bound to happen. "We're gonna go check on him, you go ahead and head to bed since it's late."
Mei headed down to her room while both Wukong and Macaque headed to MK's room to see if he was there but when the golden monkey knocked there was no answer, so he opened the door to see no one in the room. "Where is he?" Macaque questioned as he walked into the room behind Wukong but it looked like he had been there not too long ago, so both monkey's looked around for a clue when the door opened. They both turned to see MK coming through with Red Son coming in behind him but MK froze like he had been caught doing something he shouldn't as he stared at both the monkey's.
"Um, MK. What's Red Son doing here?" Wukong questioned as MK started sweating while taking a glance at the half bull demon in hopes that he could help. Red just smiled while watching MK suffer trying to find the words to explain what was happening to his mentor as Wukong just stood there like a disappointed father "Um- Well- I invited Red over to hang out." The demon just laughed, almost falling over "That's not what you said to me over the phone." and MK tried to shut the other one up before he told the monkey's their secret.
"Really? What did he say then?" Wukong said with a growl as he crossed his arms while taking a step forward to possibly intimidate the fire demon while Macaque just stood back also giving the look at MK. Macaque had built a protectiveness over MK even under the control of LBD, and he didn't want whatever is happening between the two standing in the doorway to be what he was thinking.
MK just crouched down and tried to curl into a ball while Red Son just looked down at him and smirked "Well, he said he wanted to watch movies, bundle up with soft blankets and plushies, and cuddle." and MK just made an embarrassed noise. Wukong and Macaque just looked confused, "That's all?" "Yep, MK seemed stressed and cuddling is one of the few things that helps him calm down after a long day." Red Son explained while MK just walked past the two monkeys and got all the fluffy blankets from the closest.
He started creating a nest of blankets and plushies that Red Son handed to him while both monkey's continued watching the two boys set up a huge nest and then Red turned around and threw clothing at the monkeys. "Go put those on and then come join us." Macaque realized that it was fluffy and soft pajamas that Red threw at them and they went to change, came back to see Red and MK already dressed. MK grabbed Wukong's and Macaque's hands and dragged them over to the nest which had snacks and the TV was already on a movie that just needed to start.
The four of them got settled and MK pressed start on the movie and they all cuddled with one another and watched movies until they fell asleep hours later but before that Macaque looked over at the two boys and smiled. "Well, it seems like he takes care of MK and makes him happy." he whispered to Wukong who also looked over and chuckled in amusement and he took his phone out snapping a picture, "For blackmail later."
