Burning Candle Cheolsoo (Joshua X Seungcheol)

Chapter 7

"Chew slowly baby" Seungcheol stroked his head gently

Juin looked up, and his cheeks were visibly full of pancakes. He tried his best to chew, but it was difficult to do it in a slow manner, clearly he was still very much excited to be eating his food. Seungcheol noticed this and chuckled softly as he stroked his head affectionately, still urging him to chew slowly

"Cute juni" seongwoo said. As soon as Juin heard Seongwoo call him 'cute' he paused in his eating, and a little blush appeared on his cheeks. He looked over at Seongwoo, his cheeks still full of food. Then, he proceeded to stick his tongue out playfully, trying to respond in a teasing manner

"Ewwww gwossss" Seongwoo complained. Juin couldn't help but giggle at Seongwoo's reaction. He slowly began to chew and swallow the food that was currently in his mouth. Then, once he was finished chewing, he stuck his tongue out again, and said "I'm just teasing you~" in a teasing tone, a hint of mischief in his voice

"Shua is the food good?" Seungcheol asked. Joshua swallowed the pancake that was in his mouth and looked over at Seungcheol. He thought about his question for a moment before replying.

"Yeah, the food's good." He answered, his tone still a bit flat. Despite the argument they had, he couldn't help but answer him honestly

"Seungi, do you want another piece bubby" Seungcheol asked seungwoo

Seungwoo, upon hearing Seungcheol, paused in his eating and looked up. He looked adorable, with some syrup smeared around his mouth. He thought for a moment, before nodding in response, signaling that he wanted another piece of pancake

"After this everyone is gonna shower okay?" Seungcheol said. Seungwoo and Juin both looked over at Seungcheol upon hearing his words, they both paused in their eating. Seungwoo groaned a bit.

"I don't waaannt to take a shower..." he mumbled, sounding like a whiny kid, unhappy at the fact he would have to go shower soon. Juin wasn't happy about it either, he shook his head in a very clear sign that he didn't want to shower

"Uh anyways...Joshua can you look after them, I'm gonna get ready and go to work nodded in response. "Yeah, I'll look after them..." He replied, his tone flat and emotionless. He was still in a fairly sour mood, but it was clear that he was doing a better job at hiding it, at least compared to earlier

By the time Seungcheol was done getting ready, The babies were still eating while Joshua sits with them making sure they chew well and don't choke. "Im gonna head out now.. have a great day, do you guys want me to bring anything hone after work?'

Juin perked up when he heard Seungcheol's voice, he looked over at him with a happy smile. Meanwhile, Seongwoo continued eating, completely consumed with the pancakes in front of him. "No, I don't think we need anything!" Juin replied, his tone cheerful. Joshua then chimed in. "Yeah, we don't need anything." He said, speaking for both himself and the kids

"Juin Seungwoo, I expect you guys to be good okay ?"Both Juin and Seongwoo looked up and nodded quickly, both of them agreeing to be good. Juin responded while still having a mouthful of food.

"Yeah, we'll be good~" he said in a somewhat garbled way, due to the food in his mouth. Seongwoo simply nodded, a pancake in his mouth which he was munching on.

"Okay babye" Seungcheol kissed their cheeks and then a kiss on Joshua's neck. Juin smiled happily upon receiving a kiss on the cheek from Seungcheol. Seongwoo made a small 'eww' sound once he saw the kiss, but he was still grinning. Meanwhile, when Seungcheol kissed Joshua's neck, he tensed up slightly, caught by surprise by the affectionate gesture. He managed to suppress his expression, keeping his face neutral, though a slight tinge of pink coloured his cheeks
