About an hour into the movie, Hongjoong started poking Yeosang's arm.
"What's up baby?" asked Yeosang with his kind voice.
Hongjoong babbled something, making Yeosang smile.
"Too small?" Hongjoong nodded.
"That's alright. Do you need something bub?" Hongjoong nodded again, but didn't say anything. Yeosang just looked at him sweetly, patiently waiting for the little to eventually express himself.
"Ba...ba" let out Hongjoong after a moment.
"You want your bottle baby?" tried to understand the older. Hongjoong nodded quickly, glad that his caregiver understood right away.
"Alright, I'll ask papa to make one for you" Hongjoong relaxed in Yeosang's hold, knowing his dada had everything under control.
"Jong?" called Yeosang. The younger hummed, signalling that he was listening.
"Can you warm up some milk in Joong's baby bottle? Just normal milk please" requested the older. Jongho nodded and sat up, walking away to get the item from Hongjoong's room.
"Papa's gonna make you the best milk ever" smiled Yeosang, making Hongjoong smile too.
A few minutes later, Jongho came back, a warm bottle of milk in his hand.
"Here you go hyung" smiled Jongho passing the bottle to the older.
"Baba! Baba!" exclaimed Hongjoong sitting up happily.
"That's right baby, now careful not to burn your tongue" warned Yeosang, feeding the little his milk. Hongjoong drank slowly, melting in Yeosang's arms as the older held the bottle for him.
"Ni...ni" mumbled the leader after finishing his milk.
"You want to go to sleep baby?" asked Jongho for clarification. Hongjoong nodded, making grabby hands towards the maknae.
"Come here flower" with that, Jongho effortlessly picked up the little and placed him on his hip, where he snuggled against the youngest's neck.
"Let's go to bed, I bet drinking that milk was exhausting" Jongho's tone was motherly, like talking to a baby.
After brushing the little's teeth, Jongho carried him towards his room where Yeosang was waiting with a plushie in his hand.
"I already have a lot of plushies, so I figured you would like to have one too. Look, it's a reindeer!" Yeosang enthusiastically showed the little the object, making his tired eyes sparkle in joy as he made grabby hands towards it.
"Here you go baby" Hongjoong squealed as he received the item, hugging it tightly as the two caregivers watched him fondly with matching smiles on their faces.
"Than...kie papa 'n dada" thanked Hongjoong with his broken speech.
"No problem baby. You're such a good boy using your words" smiled Yeosang. Jongho nodded.
"Yeah, you're such a good boy petal" added Jongho, making Hongjoong smile.
"Come on, let's get some sleep" Yeosang laid in bed next to the little and started humming THANK U, hoping to make him sleepy. Thankfully he succeeded and in a couple of minutes the leader was deeply asleep.
"What the fuck was Seonghwa thinking?" exclaimed Jongho once the two were back to the living room.
"I don't know but he better have a good explanation" sighed Yeosang looking at the maknae's angry face.
"I won't be there to hear it. Just how dare he? Hongjoong hyung did so much for us, and Seonghwa decides to be an arrogant hypocrite asshole" insulted the youngest, earning a muttered 'tone it down' from Yeosang.
"No I won't. I'm just so mad right now, like... one day out of the blue he decides he can do whatever he wants? That's not fair on Hongjoong and it's not fair on us either. Like come on hyung, you saw how much he cared for Hongjoong when he slipped, he made us buy all kinds of stuff for him and now he calls him names and thinks he's superior because he knows about Hongjoong's past trauma? I mean I'm glad Hongjoong got to talk about it with someone, but maybe Seonghwa wasn't the right person?" Jongho tried to explain himself to the older, who just hummed.
"I mean, you're right. However, if what I'm thinking is correct, it wasn't the real Seonghwa who said those words but a part of him influenced by internet articles" Yeosang started carefully.
"What do you mean hyung?" asked Jongho cluelessly.
"After Hongjoong chose me as one of his main caregivers, I did some research on the topic. But when I searched up littlespace, I found many sexual articles, some were even disturbing. I bet Seonghwa read some of those too" said Yeosang.
"Even if he did, it's not an excuse. He should know better than to trust a random internet article" scoffed Jongho, making Yeosang hum.
"No, I'm not defending him, and I totally agree with you, it's not an excuse. But that might help us understand why he behaved like that. Hongjoong is our leader and he brought us to this point, it's true, but Seonghwa cared for us too, checking on us when we were sick, paying for dinners at restaurants, taking care of Hongjoong when he overworked himself... Seonghwa has a caring nature, that's why I think the words he said earlier weren't totally intentional" shook his head Yeosang.
"Whatever" mumbled Jongho, sitting back on the couch to watch whatever the rest of the group chose to play on the TV screen.
Yeosang walked to his room and laid down scrolling through social media, waiting for something to happen.
