"

that was hilarious! you looked like someone was vacuuming your face!"

"it was scary!!"

dyllie exclaimed, tears threatening to slide down his cheeks, cloud noticed this and he immediately sat up straight and raised a brow.

"umm...yikes you're a big scaredy cat huh?"

dyllie sniffled and walked away silently, cloud hopped off from the branch and ran after the slightly older boy.

"hey umm uh please don't cry? please? uhh my mom would definitely scold me for this,"

"if you knew it'd make me sad why'd you do it?!"

dyllie asked, a bit overreacting but his eyes turning soft when he saw cloud bit his lip in guilt "i thought you'd laugh...that's what my friends always do."

"well mister meanie we are NOT friends!"

dyllie pointed out and pouted which cloud found annoying "jeez did i say i wanna do anything with you?" now cloud had crossed his arms and put his weight on his right feet.

"GASPS YOU ARE DEFINITELY SUCH A BIG BAD WOLF!"

"rawr."

cloud exclaimed lifelessly as he rolled his eyes and decided to skip ahead of dyllie, the older 6 year old boy had his eyes widened and he suddenly screeched,

"MONSTER!"

he used that high pitched girly scream and ran away, cloud was confused and looked around expecting to see a 6 feet giant blob of jelly covered in mud, sticks and algae, but yet...

he only saw a butterfly fluttering around.

cloud was now questioning if the boy he scared was insane or had a third eye, he definitely picked the first one but anyways he chose to run after him since the boy was still screaming.

"MOMMY HELP! DADDY!"

dyllie yelled at the top of his lungs, tears spilling from his eyes and cloud following the voice, huxxie who was pouring fresh young coconut juice on the glass was alarmed and he immediately placed it down and ran to wherever he felt his son was.

"CAEDYLLE BABY, MOMMY IS HERE!"

huxxie bit his lip in anxiousness and threw his head back in stress and fear, he didn't know what to do, should he search for his son or let his son come after him, fuck was he contemplating until the crying stopped and huxxie was about to step foot into the forest until he saw a blonde haired boy holding dyllie's hands in his.

dyllie looked up and saw his mother or father if you'd call it, so he ran up to huxxie and hugged him tightly. "MOMMY A BIG BAD BLACK WINGED MONSTER WAS THERE!" dyllie sobbed as he buried his face onto huxxie's neck while cloud watched,

huxxie patted dyllie's back and said, "baby oh my don't worry that insect won't harm you baby," he assured and kissed his son's temples, while he saw cloud and immediately thanked him.

"thank you little boy if it had not been you,my precious angel would be lost and and and..."

"it's okay sir, it's what i know i want someone to do if ever that happens to me."

huxxie smiled genuinely with a crying dyllie in his arms, cloud looked at him in curiosity and worry.

"he had a dream about big butterflies taking him away from us, then hurting him in their nest, so that's why he tends to panic and cry when he sees such creatures."

"oh...i..that's scary i guess."

before huxxie could say something, a tall man with brown hair came, a worried expression written all over his face "CLOUD LEE I AM CERTAIN THAT I TOLD YOU TO STAY INSIDE THE HOTEL ROOM BECAUSE ME AND YOUR DAD ARE BUSY WITH WORK AND OUR LUGGAGES─"

"mama! sorry! i just wanted to go out and play in the beach already but sadly i can't because the lifeguard told me i needed adult superpower whatever it is,"

"supervision cloud and come on,you've made another child cry─"

"DWYN! GOD IT'S LIKE THOSE MOVIES WHERE WE DON'T SEE EACH OTHER FOR YEARS AND MEET UP UNEXPECTEDLY!"

huxxie screeched and dwyn clamped a hand over his mouth "RAE?! WOW DYLLIE YOU GREW UP TOO FAST."

"NO HE DIDN'T HE'S STILL A SMALL MARSHMALLOW AND YOUR SON TOO! LET'S JUST ADMIT IT THE ONLY TIME WE CAN SAY THEY GREW UP IS WHEN THEY'RE ALREADY MATURE ENOUGH TO UNDERSTAND THAT THEY DON'T NEED DESSERT AFTER EVERY MEAL."

cloud had a disgusted look on his face
"jeez what's with these adults screaming about..." he whispered as dyllie was now on the ground, he looked at cloud and he offered a small shy smile.

cloud returned the favor and now dyllie was in front of him,

"i love watching tom and jerry,wanna watch it with me?"

the blonde haired boy grinned at the question and almost instantly he nodded.
