The one where he can't help admiring her (JHS)

There it was again, the typical wail of a baby crying. It always served as quite the wake up call for the couple resting in bed, even if they were barely asleep in the first place.

Hoseok, though, having been working quite hard that day, was quickly back under the lure of sleep as he felt his wife shift from bed. Grace sighed and shuffled her way out of their room, rubbing the blurriness from her eyes as she did so.

Their baby boy was stood up in his crib, sobbing. Grace turned the light on, having smelt the problem the moment she entered his room. His older brother was up, too, and quite upset as well. Though he was mostly cranky from having been woken up so rudely, he'd also not been feeling all too good.

Grace lifts her younger son up out of his crib under his arms, and noticed that his older brother would need to be changed, as well.

"Hobi!" She shouted for her husband, said man startling out of his deep slumber. He stirs groggily, disoriented and wiping his eyes. "The boys' diapers exploded!" She added, to which he sighed and pushed himself out of bed.

"Nae!" His hoarse voice croaked through the hallways, far too tired to be using any language that wasn't his native tongue. He entered the room and grabbed his oldest son, who was set on his little bare feet on the floor. He'd only just turned 3, and his little brother was an oops-baby. Grace having gotten pregnant again when he was 18 months old, despite their plans to wait until he was potty-trained at the least. However, with the young baby in the picture his training was delayed.

"C'mere bubbie. Let's have a bath and get you something to make your tummy feel better." Grace cooed to their youngest. Hoseok looked up from where he was cleaning the older boy, only just now realizing Grace's pantsless attire. She had on an old T-shirt of his, and her butt was slightly exposed, depending on how she moved you'd easily see her underwear. Not to mention her long and smooth caramel legs.

Dongwon whines, quite uncomfortable with his predicament. Grace carried their naked baby over to the bathroom, hushing his fussing as she moves, water started to run and his cries increased again.

Hobi changed his older son, who luckily wasn't in as bad of a situation as Daeyoung. Though, Daeyoung moved a lot in his sleep, and he was sure that contributed to the chaotic mess. Grace hushed Dae from the bathroom, he wasn't a fan of baths in the slightest.

"Daddy, I wanna bath!" Leo, Dongwon's English name, insisted, unlike his little brother he enjoyed baths. When he was a newborn he quite liked it in either of his parent's arms, and never cried as they'd drizzle water onto his small pink-ish body. Daeyoung was the opposite.

Hoseok carries his older son into the bath tub with his little brother, where Dongwon patted his baby brother's head sweetly. Daeyoung stopped wailing and opened his wet eyes, which landed on his older brother. Grace, who grabbed his pacifier before and had it hooked on her finger, finally got the chance to place it between his lips. To which he slowly accepted and seemed quite relieved to have, visibly relaxing. "I'll check and see if the girls are up." Hoseok told his wife, who usually made sure their older daughters were getting ready.

He headed down the hall to see his 10-year-old daughter brushing her teeth as her 7-year-old younger sister was helping unbraid her light brown curly hair. The younger having already done her hair into two adorable little parted puffs, a neat braid wrapped around each.

He smiled, his daughters were so prepared and well-mannered. They got that from their mother, having watched and followed her all the time.

Yeunha noticed him first and turned from her older sister's head, "Morning Daddy!" She flashed her bright grin. She had a few missing and crooked teeth, but she was a bit young for braces so they'd hold off on it. Plus Hobi personally found it quite cute, and it reminded him that she was his adorable baby girl.

Hanah spat her tooth paste out. "Hi, Daddy!" She greeted. Hobi kissed both of their heads, which smelt of coconut and jajoba oil. "You girls ready for school?"

They both nod, Yeunha's tiny little fingers working diligently in her sister's hair without ceasing.

"Are the boys okay, Appa? We heard them crying." Asked Hanah, who always was concerned over her little brothers. Yeunha would more often get irritated by them but was still a loving big sister.

Leo toddled in, gripping the hem of his shirt, an adorable habit of his. He moves toward Yeunha, who was startled by his clinginess at first. She accidentally pulled Hanah's hair, to which the oldest yelped "Ow! Don't pull so hard!"

"Yeunie..." said their little brother into her uniform blouse, gripping her skirt. Hoseok chuckles as Yeunha ignored him, pretending she was indifferent to him so she could finish her sister's hair. Hanah had spent the past weekend showing her sister how to braid to the scalp and her sister was finally grasping it.

"Morning, Bubbie. Look, you left this in my room last night." Hanah cooed, grabbing his little dinosaur figure and handing it to him. He squeals and grabs it with his little fingers.

Grace passed by with Daeyoung on her hip, likely starting breakfast and the girls' lunches. She placed her youngest son into his high chair, though he didn't want it. He started to whine fitfully, reaching for her and bouncing in place. She grabs his dummy, which dangled from his plump lips, and pushed it back in further, the boy calming down some as he sucked on it. He watched his mother cut up some fruit and heat up a bottle of milk for him.

The girls came in dressed, their father behind them, he having helped them put their bows in their hair. Dongwon was gripping his pants, toddling beside of him. Hoseok lifts him up into his booster seat, grabbing his cut up fruit from the counter that his mother prepared. Daeyoung was gumming on strawberries in the kitchen (Grace liked having her babies in her sight when she cooked. She did this when all the children were babies).

"Yeun, Han, eat some breakfast." Grace insisted, handing them each a plate of steaming hot food. She lifts a sleepy Daeyoung onto her hip, the boy having started to nod off half-way through his bottle. She had an illegitimate fear of her children choking, especially the younger ones.

Hoseok watched her move with the baby on her hip, Daeyoung resting his head on her shoulder and falling asleep quite easily. "Wonnie," she cooed, the young boy looking up at her from his plate of mostly-eaten-fruit. She holds out a hot bowl of food, "You want some, baby?"

He bobs his head, Hoseok taking his bowl and blowing the steam for his son gently. He smiles fondly as he helps feed him, looking back at Grace's aura. He loved how she never hesitated to take the initiative, especially when it involved the kids. She always had everyone else in mind, always saving herself for last. He sent the girls off to school, sure they wouldn't miss their bus.

"Mommy, I done..." said little Wonnie, showing his bowl to Grace by holding it up with both hands.

"Eat a little bit more, baby. Mommy wants you to be big and strong like Daddy." She urged, bouncing Daeyoung on her hip, the baby having stirred and whined as he tried to get comfortable in her arms.

Hoseok holds his hands out for Dae, who was transferred to his arms with gentle care. He could feel his son's chest rising and falling against his. The boy was a bit warm, more than usual.

"I think we should hold off on the American pears for a while. That might have caused the diaper explosions." Said Grace, she having gave them a new fruit for the first time as a snack yesterday. They enjoyed it, luckily, but it moved their bowels too well.

Hoseok hummed, rubbing his son's back, "He's warm." He voiced his earlier observation.

"He might just be feeling hot because of his stomach. He might be better after a nap." Grace assured, praising their older son for finishing all his food, giving him his sippy cup full of juice.

Hoseok smirks, and when Grace turned around to walk Dongwon over to his play area, he swiftly tapped her bottom with his hand, making her jump, but she bit back a yelp and glared playfully back at him.
