Sadly, vacation ends way too quickly for Yeosang. Two weeks already vanished into thin air and in barely fourteen days, so much has happened. It's a day full of practice today, they have a lot to prepare for. The first concert is in five days, in Seoul, then they'll fly to Tokyo straight away. It's going to be hectic from now on, which means only one thing: he will not be able to keep an eye on his best friend Jung Wooyoung like he should.

Today, he does not wake up with Jongho to his side, but to a cold and empty bed. His alarm hasn't gone off yet and when he checks for the time, he can't help but sigh. It's going to go off in five minutes. He turns it off before he forgets, gets out of bed and Jongho's room, and proceeds to walk inside the bathroom. He's frustrated, a lot actually and all he thinks about while doing his morning skin care routine is Wooyoung. He's so blind and dumb... he's a frustrating mess whom he loves dearly. But he needs to do something to open his damn eyes. There is a weird vibe between him and San, has been for a while now, actually, if he ponders over the thought a little, it's been weird ever since they befriended each other almost three months ago. First were the small glances for him, usually coming from the younger, but then it was San's behavior. How he took care of him when he was at his lowest, how he listened and understood him, how he even made sure Wooyoung would not be alone in their first week of vacation.

Yeosang feels a little guilty about it. He didn't even notice the way his best friend lied amazingly. He would have brought him to Jeju as well, but a part of him knows Wooyoung wouldn't have felt that good. He's happy San took the initiative and brought him to his hometown. Ever since then, Wooyoung looks better. It's wonderful to see a genuine smile on his face these days but what amazes him is how quickly he started recovering from his depressive episode. He's known Wooyoung for a while now and not even once did he recover this quickly. It would always take some months for him to finally eat better, sleep better, talk with the rest without acting like overworking for comebacks, promotions and concerts is actually his life.

San unlocked something in him these past months and he has a feeling what could it be.

"The new episode from The Return of the Superman is on TV." Jongho storms inside the bathroom with gleamy eyes, startling the older. Yeosang coughs out the toothpaste and glares at him.

"I could have been peeing! Why are you opening the door like this?"

Jongho ignores his remark and grins. Yeosang gives him a weird look and goes back to brushing his teeth. What got him excited like this? It's just a show with kids and as far as he knows, Jongho isn't a big fan of them.

But then it clicks in his mind and he widens his own eyes before he spits out the whole toothpaste.

"Is it Wooyoung's episode?'

Jongho nods enthusiastically. They have to leave the apartment in about an hour or so, which means they can watch the special episode with ease.

"Fuck!" He panics and clears his mouth with water which gets everywhere on the tiles. Jongho rushes over to the living room and he can hear from here the intro of the show. Yeosang slams the door after himself and joins his boyfriend on the couch, almost completely all over him. The younger hisses in pain when his own elbow gets stuck, to which Yeosang gives a hurried sorry and a peck on his hand. Oh this will good, he just knows it.

"What are you two doing?" Hongjoong asks from the kitchen. Yeosang glances over at him and smirks.

"The guys' episode is out."

It gets his attention right away. With a mug of steamy coffee and a bowl of cereals in hands, Hongjoong occupies the armchair and makes himself comfy in it.

All three kids are a bundle of joy and he can't help but scream inside at how cute the twins are. They are so little, so soft and fragile, so full of love. Yeosang pouts at the sight of his best friend with one in his arms, Arin was her name if he remembers correctly, and can't help but find the sight so fucking precious. It brings him back in time a little, when Beomseok was little and both him and Wooyoung would play with him and cuddle with him. He can't help but chuckle when the shots with Seonghwa and the boy fill the screen. The oldest has it the roughest out of them all, as the little boy does not desire to stay still like her sisters and proceeds to run around the field in the middle of that scorching looking day they filmed the episode.
