jaebum takes both of their suitcases as the younger rings the bell, jumping up and down in clear excitement. his older lover chuckles fondly at that, thankful that youngjae's behavior keeps him from feeling too nervous. he hears some voices from inside and the lump in his throat is back. he swallows with difficulty and takes a deep breath as the door finally opens to a beautiful woman with jet black hair and an apron tied around her waist.
"mom!" youngjae exclaims, taking the woman in his arms with a smile.
jaebum feels a bit less nervous when he witnesses the cutest thing ever. youngjae is hugging his mom so hard, holding her so tightly jaebum doubts she can breathe properly but apparently, she can as she laughs loudly and hugs him just as hard.
"i missed you so much!" the younger says, pulling back to cup his mother's face and pecks her forehead affectionately.
"i missed you too, you should come more often!" his mother frowns and whacks her son on the head, making him whine.
"ouch! i'm sorry, i'll visit more often!" he pouts while rubbing the mistreated spot.
jaebum awkwardly clears his throat and youngjae slowly turns to him before his eyes go wide in realization. right, he has a boyfriend.
"oh! mom, i forgot i wasn't alone," he sheepishly chuckles. "mom, this is jaebum, my boyfriend. and hyung, this is my mother, heejin!"
jaebum starts to bow deeply to her but heejin stops him from doing so.
"don't do that, darling. i'm not the president," she chuckles and brings him into a hug.
jaebum is startled as he hesitantly hugs her back, eyes glancing at his boyfriend who encouragingly smiles at him. heejin breaks the hug to take a proper look at jaebum.
"he's really handsome, nice catch honey!" she exclaims, smiling brightly and she briefly reminds jaebum of youngjae.
the older male smiles softly, scratching the back of his neck. he bows slightly while muttering a "thank you" and heejin happily giggles.
"and he's so polite too! where did you find such a perfect young man, youngjae?"
the latter blushes as he shakes his head. jaebum can't stop his smile from getting wider and he bows again in gratitude.
"let's not stay out for too long, it's so cold! come in!" heejin says as she opens the door wider.
jaebum follows them into the house and he realizes that he's not that nervous anymore. it's probably due to heejin's bright personality. again, he's reminded of youngjae. the house is pretty simple but still very pretty. there's a lot of family pictures on the walls and jaebum thinks to his own family who barely takes pictures. it's kinda sad.
"your sister and your brother will join us tomorrow for christmas eve. did you talk to them?" youngjae's mother asks as she goes to the kitchen.
"i talked to jiseon noona two days ago. she told me she was bringing hyunjoo hyung, did she tell you?"
"she did. this house is going to be so full! i'm so excited!" heejin exclaims happily, clapping.
youngjae just laughs and kisses his mother on the cheek before taking his suitcase from jaebum's hand.
"i'll take you to my room," he says, leading the way and jaebum nods, following him.
youngjae's room is just like him. bright. it's quite simple : a king size bed covered in navy blue sheets, a bedside table, a closet and the walls are all covered in childhood pictures, posters, etc. it reeks of youngjae's past and it's positively overwhelming.
"your room is nice," jaebum says, voicing his thoughts and the smile he gets in return doesn't fail to take his breath away.
"it'll be our room during our stay here so i'm glad you like it," youngjae retorts, smiling.
jaebum can't help but smile as well and he sits on the bed, having left his suitcase near the closet. he then makes grabby hands at the younger, beckoning him to come. the latter closes the door but doesn't lock it and joins jaebum on the bed, naturally making himself comfortable on his lap as he straddles his thighs. jaebum's hands immediately settle on his boyfriend's hips. it feels nice.
"i like your mom. she's just like you," he says, burying his face into his neck and he hums contently when youngjae's fingers lightly massage the back of his neck.
"she obviously likes you too. i'm scared she'll take you away from me," the younger chuckles playfully.
"nah, it's not happening. i'm all yours just like you're all mine."
youngjae just smiles and cups the older's face before leaning down to peck his lips. jaebum pulls him closer and kisses him again, longer. youngjae doesn't seem to mind as he gently nibbles on jaebum's lip who groans slightly, squeezing the younger's hips in a warning. youngjae pulls back with a playful smirk. little fucker.
"don't start anything you won't finish," jaebum says, squinting his eyes.
"sorry, hyung," the younger just shrugs. he doesn't look sorry at all but jaebum will let it slide. for now.
jaebum shakes his head and at that moment, they hear someone's voice.
"i'm home!"
"who is that?" jaebum asks, although he has an idea and it's quite terrifying.
