"DAVIIID!," Neil was lying on his bed grinning. David quickly ran in.

"What's wrong?!," David ran over to Neil.

"Nothin, I just wanted a hug," Neil smiled and opened his arms. David sighed and hugged the teen. After Neil refused to let go, David started tickling him.

"Come on Neil, Daniel is waiting downstairs, it's movie night," David smirked as the boy squirmed around and laughed loudly. Little did he know Daniel was standing in the doorway chuckling at the two. Eventually David got off of the boy and turned around, he jumped when he saw Daniel.

"Neil! I told that the wing doesn't go there!!," Spacekid slammed his fists onto the table.

"I'm sorry, I don't know space ships that well, how can I make it up to you?," Neil frowned some. Spacekid grinned and pointed at his lips.

"Kiss," He smiled and Neil chuckled. Neil quickly placed a kiss on the others lips and smiled some.

"There, is that better?," Neil spoke softly. Spacekid blushed and covered his face then fell onto Neil's bed. The two had been dating for about one month and it was confusing, everytime someone said Neil, both would be confused.

           Neil got up and laid next to Spacekid. Spacekid looked over at him and opened his arms.

"Cuddles, then we go make cookies, for me, all mine," Spacekid held Neil's hands and smiled. Neil chuckled again and kissed the others hands.

"Can I have at least one?," Neil fake pouted. Spacekid thought for a second before nodding.

"One," He held up one finger and stuck his tongue out. Suddenly Spacekid jumped up.
"Oh yeah! I made you something!," He ran over to his bookbag and pulled out a notebook. He searched through it before ripping out a peice of paper and handing it to Neil. The other looked at the doodle for a minute before smiling widely.

"This looks amazing!," Neil got up and hugged Spacekid tightly. Spacekid giggled and jumped into Neil's arms. Neil quickly picked up the boy and laughed some.
"Baby, what are you doing?," Neil sat down on the bed and Spacekid kissed his nose.

"I wanna cuddle and have fun!," Spacekid giggled. Neil grabbed his phone and put on some music. He laid back so he had Spacekid on top of him. He kissed Spacekid quickly making him blush darkly.
"Hey, you stole a kiss!," Spacekid whined and kissed Neil.

-

The two were panting heavily, Spacekid was now very sore.

-

"Neil, you're grounded," Daniel was in Spacekid's room. The boy took a deep breath and started screaming then punched Daniel. The man just sat there and watched.
"This doesn't hurt, now please stop," Daniel held onto Neil's hands. He started screaming louder and squirmed around. Daniel got the boy to his bed then got on top of him, this was something he did a lot when Neil threw tantrums.

"Get off!! Get off!!," Neil started crying with frustration. Daniel grabbed something from the bedside table, it was a toy that, when you would wind it up, it would show a rocket ship going through space. Neil grabbed it and just stared. Daniel slowly got off of him and smiled.

"It's only for today, so can I please have a hug," Daniel opened his arms and Neil just stared at him for a moment. The boy slowly got up and hugged him.

"You're mean," Neil whined some. Daniel just nodded.

"Yeah, I know," Daniel smiled some.

"Daniel! Neil! Dinner is ready!," David called this from the kitchen. Neil's face lit up and he darted out of his room and into the kitchen. Daniel followed behind, David was now trying to get Neil to sit down. He was very hyper. Once he was sat down, he started singing loudly.

"Neil, time to eat, not sing," Daniel smiled some at the boy. Neil nodded and started eating his food. David had no idea how Daniel could calm Neil down do quickly.

          After dinner, Neil decided that he was gonna try and put on Netflix. He had no idea how to use the tv.

"David! Tv!!," Neil fell dramatically onto the couch. David sighed and walked into the room, he put on Netflix and clicked on Stranger Things. Neil grinned and put his thumb in his mouth. David took his hand and moved it away.

"I thought we got over that, you will ruin your teeth," David sighed. Neil whined and nodded some, he only did it because it was comforting. Neil started chewing on his shirt.
"No, that is not any better," David took the shirt out of his mouth. Neil glared some, he kicked David and crossed his arms.

"Meany!," Neil covered his head with his shirt. David nodded and walked back out of the room, he went to go lay down for a minute. Neil cuddled into his blankets and happily watched the show.
"David!!," Neil squirmed around some. Daniel sighed and walked into the room.
"No, David," Neil flipped him off.

"David is sleeping, he is all tuckered out," Daniel picked up Neil and smiled. Neil giggled and nuzzled into Daniel.
"Now, what did you need?," Daniel rubbed his back and hummed some.

"Uhh, I don' know," Neil pouted and poked Daniel's cheek. Daniel nodded.
"Daniel stay here and keep company," Neil stuck his tongue out. Daniel chuckled and poked his tongue. He slapped Daniel and squealed.
"No! My tongue!," Neil slapped him. Daniel grabbed his arm.

"Do not! Slap people," Daniel growled. Neil started crying and he punched Daniel. Daniel held his wrists and sighed.
"Stop it!," He wrapped the blanket around Neil almost as tight as he could. Neil squirmed around and screamed. Daniel held him still and brought him into a tight hug. He started singing softly and Neil immediately stop moving around. Daniel smiled some as Neil laid his head down on Daniel's shoulder. He kept singing until he heard soft snores. Turns out David was standing in the doorway just watching.

"Good job Daniel," David walked over and sat next to him. Daniel smiled at him and rubbed Neil's back. Neil whined and opened his eyes, he made grabby hands at David. David happily lifted him into his lap.
"Well hello there," David smiled and kissed his cheek. Neil stuck his tongue out.

"Sleepy time," Neil laid against David and hummed. David nodded and bounced his knee some. Neil giggled some and hugged him. Soon enough Neil was back to sleep and David was watch The Sand Lot while Daniel sle0t on his shoulder and Neil slept on his lap.
