"Joshua, Lu Lu's birthday is soon, what do you think we should do for him?" Tyler asked as he was getting ready for his day, bringing different dresses and shirts up to his chest to cycle through the variety of outfit choices.

Josh, who was watching his husband with fondness, smiled at the worried tone hidden beneath the brunet's voice. Their little boy would be turning four, and to Tyler that was a big deal.

"Do something Disney related, he loves beauty and the beast as well as Bambi... which is ironic... so do something revolving around that." The older blond said with a shrug, standing up to walk over to Tyler who was internally trying to get ideas together in his head.

Josh took the lace shirt out of Tyler's hands and moved it over to the bed before wrapping his arms around the brunet's waist. Placing a soft kiss to the tan skin, Joshua rubbed at the skin on the brunet's hips. "Don't worry so much about it Bambi, our little boy will have the best birthday party no matter what."

Tyler sighed and nodded his head, smiling while dropping his hands to rest on top of Josh's, admiring the metal bands that adorned their ring fingers.

"You'll be here for his birthday right?" The brunet asked with his bottom lip between his teeth.

"I wouldn't miss it for the world, plus tour doesn't start for another three months." The older Dun said as he pressed a loving kiss to the top of his husbands shoulder. "I love you." He added.

"I love you more." Tyler responded with a grin, his dimples standing out.

"Aun'tie 'ara!" Luhan shouted with a happy squeal, the noise being followed by a giggle. He ran after the now caramel blonde who was sitting at a bench beside an ice cream shop near the park. Cara smiled wide when she saw the small boy coming towards her, opening her arms in a crouch to allow the black haired boy to run into her arms.

"How's my little deer? Look how much you've grown!" The Joseph said with a laugh, glancing over at her brother to give him a small wave. "Hey, Ty."

Tyler waved back and sat down in front of the spot that had once been occupied by his older sister.

"Mommy say I can have ice c'eam!" He happily said, wrapping his arms around his aunts shoulder and holding onto her tightly as she stood up.

"Is that so? What kind of ice cream?" Cara asked. Tyler watched the interaction with nothing but warmth spreading throughout his body.

He loved watching the people he loves the most interact with each other. Every time his father interacted with Josh back when he was a teenager, he always felt this rush of happiness. But nothing compared to the feeling he got whenever Luhan and Joshua bonded. That feeling, was indescribable.

"St'awbe'ry!" Lu giggled, his tiny baby teeth on display.

"You're so cute, oh my goodness Tyler can I keep him?" Cara asked only half kidding.

"No! He's my baby!" The mother of the child defended with a pout, making grabby hands for Luhan who instantly made grabby hands back.

The Chinese native sat comfortable on Tyler's lap as he messily ate the sweet dessert. Pink colored ice cream was smeared around his mouth, his small lips darker from the coldness of the treat. He watched other kids play in the distance as he leaned against Tyler's chest. Cara stopped talking and let out a quiet giggle when she spotted the small boys eyes widened and his actions slow to a complete stop as he watched one of the kids on the playground.

"What's so funny?" Tyler asked confused to why his sister was laughing.

Cara covered her mouth with her hand, hiding her grin as she turned around to look for the kid that may have captured the Chinese natives attention.

"Don't be alarmed, but I think your little Lu may have just gained his first crush." The caramel blonde chuckled, watching Luhan's eyes travel back and fourth. "That or he's possessed by a demon." She shrugged jokingly.

Tyler lightly hit her arm. "You're joking." He said with matching wide eyes.

"Dead serious." Cara replied. The brunet craned his neck to look at his sons face, and felt his heartbeat pick up at the thought of Luhan getting his first crush. There been a few times Luhan has done this. He will completely stop all actions he's doing and stare at the sight that held him captivated until knocked out of the trance.

Once he did it when he spotted Tyler's high school teacher Jenna, and the next time was when he met Joshua's friend, Jackson's boyfriend.

To Tyler it was cute, to Josh it was hell.

"C-can I p'ay on the p'ayground?" Luhan asked nervously, his cute innocent little eyes peering up into Tyler's, his little lips slightly pouting as he awaited for an answer.

"Sure baby, let's go." Tyler smiled, sending a look to Cara before picking up the three almost four year old to walk over to the playground.

Cara watched from the distance as Luhan shyly walked over to a little boy with light brown hair who had been standing at the top of the stairs. She couldn't hear what was happening, but she saw little Luhan tap on the boys shoulder before shoving his arms behind his back and clasping his hands. She let out a little breathy laugh when she realized what he was doing.

He was playing cute.

This is something Luhan did when he wanted something because he knew no one could resist it. Sneaky.

He definitely learned that from his mama.

Tyler couldn't hear what was being said either, but he watched as well. The little boy looked foreign, his eyes were slightly similar to Luhan's s except they were a tad bit smaller, his lips were a lighter shade of pink, and he was a few inches taller than little Luhan. Overall the kid was quite cute, and Tyler was planning how to break it down to Joshua without him going into protective mode.
