When Baekhyun and Chanyeol arrived home Baekhyun hopped out of the car to open Taehyung's door as Chanyeol grabbed his things from the trunk. Taehyung climbed out with the help of Baekhyun, and even once his feet had touched the ground he didn't let go of Baekhyun's hand.

Baekhyun smiled at that and gently squeezed his little hand as he softly said, "Welcome home, Taehyung."

Taehyung's smile was shy as he followed after Baekhyun towards the front door; Baekhyun unlocked it and lead him inside.

"Okay Tae, down this short hallway is the living room. Come on, let's go see . . ."

Baekhyun towed him along as Chanyeol locked the house behind them and disappeared down the other hallway leading upstairs to the bedrooms —- mainly Taehyung's so he could place the new clothes and toys they had gotten him. When Chanyeol went back downstairs Baekhyun had moved the tour into the kitchen where he was making a grilled cheese sandwich for Taehyung. Chanyeol stayed off to the side, half hidden behind the wall as he watched them interact. He smiled.

Chanyeol's never realized how good Baekhyun was with kids, and now that he was seeing him in action it broke his heart to think about giving the boy away. Sure they had their own baby on the way, but the thought of turning away Taehyung even though he wasn't related to them hurt. He didn't think he'd be able to manage it . . .

Later that night, after dinner and after Taehyung had gotten ready for bed, Chanyeol and Baekhyun were in their room. Baekhyun was resting with his head on Chanyeol's lap, while Chanyeol leaned back against the bedframe in thought.

As he thought, he couldn't help but notice as Baekhyun ran his fingers over his flat stomach. Chanyeol sighed, and his fingers moved to thread through Baekhyun's hair as he softly said, "Baekkie, how do you feel about Taehyung?"

"What do you mean?" Baekhyun muttered with the furrowing of his brow.

"I mean, do you —- do you see yourself wishing to keep him? Wishing to raise him?" Chanyeol quietly muttered.

Baekhyun slowly sat up and turned around until they were face to face, he carefully searched Chanyeol's eyes before quietly asking, "Do you want that?"

Chanyeol bit his bottom lip before muttering, "I think I . . . I think I do. When I saw you with him.... You were glowing, Baek, and who's to guarantee that if we give him away he'll go to a loving home? I don't want him to go somewhere he'll hate. I think we should . . . I think we really should adopt him. What do you say?" Chanyeol softly asked.

"What do I say . . ." Baekhyun softly muttered as a slow smile began to curve the corner of his mouth. "I say we make it official with Ms. Kim that Taehyung is ours."

Chanyeol smiled. "I thought you'd say that . . ." he whispered before gently cupping his cheeks and pulling him in for a slow kiss. Baekhyun sighed and slide his fingers through Chanyeol's hair as he kissed him back. "I love you."

"I love you more," Baekhyun whispered before locking their lips in a heated kiss that their bodies soon after began to sweat to.
