This time when Yunho manifested into Yeosang's world Yeosang was standing there waiting for him.

"You came back!" He happily squealed before bringing Yunho in for a hug.

An unexpected hug that set Yunho's heart into a fluttering mess and a heat rising to his cheeks.

Yeosang jumped backwards, releasing Yunho and his heart, "What do you want to play today?" he asked

"Um . ." Yunho thought before remembering his conversation with his mother.

. .maybe he's just playing an elaborate trick on you?

From the way that Yeosang was behaving it was clear that 'child mode' was most definitely still on. He was swinging his arms playfully back and forth and rocking on his heels, and he just asked what they wanted to 'play'.

"I actually have something to show you" Yunho began

He'd done some research during the day watching lots of videos and reading heaps of articles about how to bring things into the dream space. In short, it was a simple as his mother had said it was, you just think it and it shall be.

Yunho learnt that you can't make something that you've never seen before, and it's harder to make something that you've only ever seen in a photograph.

You can't conjure living things like people or pets because those have a mind of their own and you can't control something living's mind, you can however conjure plants, though they won't grow, you can think/imagine them bigger, but they will always stay the same.

To successfully conjure something you have to have seen it, touched it, smelt it and embraced it with all your senses; you may not remember every detail about something but your subconscious mind will.

It's the very reason why before bed Yunho had spent a good 15minutes in the garage looking at a particular object with a smooth shiny blue body, black handlebars and two silver wheels, making sure to look at it from every angle, memorise every curve and edge to make sure that he could successfully bring it into dreamscape existence.

Yunho closed his eyes imagining what he wanted to appear in front of him. He could feel Yeosang's eyes watching him curiously, and the smallers breath coming out of his mouth in gentle exhales as he waited patiently.

A small gasp from the smaller and a muttering of "Cool" and Yunho was sure he had done something right.

Yunho opened his eyes and sure enough in front of him was his bike, he quickly grabbed it before it toppled over.

The kids in his neighbourhood were really big on riding bikes everywhere, to school, the park, down to the street market, to each other's houses everywhere.

Yunho only hoped that Yeosang wherever he was from in the real world liked bike riding with his friends just as much as he did.

Yeosang's face lit up as he stepped towards the bike, "How did you do that? Are you a magician?"

"I'm not" Yunho said with a small laugh

Yeosang wasn't paying attention to Yunho, his gaze firmly glued to the bike "Your bike is so big and cool!" he cheered as he traced a finger on the handle bar.

Yunho felt a little win and silently gave himself a pat on the ba-

"I wish I could ride a big bike like this, mine still has my training wheels, Daddy says when I stop falling over and crashing into things then he'll take them off"

"Dammit" Yunho screamed in his mind. Yunho's happy smile suddenly turned into a forced smile and he gripped the handle bar that he was holding a little tighter to vent his frustration. Yeosang was still playing around.

If he wants to continue to act like a child then treat him like a child

Putting on his acting face, not that he really had one, Yunho tried to make his fake smile as genuine as possible hoping the smaller hadn't noticed.

"You're a big boy" he began with confidence, trying not to cringe and laugh at the term that one his age might use to insult someone else his age "Big boys can ride big bikes, they don't need training wheels"

"But I'm not a big boy" Yeosang pouted and crossed his arms over his chest.

Yunho kicked the bike's stand out so his bike didn't need his help to stay standing and walked around to the side Yeosang was standing on.

He grabbed Yeosang's shoulders and turned the smaller so they were facing each other straight on, he then put his hand on top of Yeosang's head, ignoring how soft the smallers hair felt under his fingertips and compared their height.

The top of Yeosang's head came up to about Yunho's forehead.

"See, we're about the same height. I'm a, er, big boy so you must be one too! You can totally ride a bike without training wheels"

"Hmm I don't know" Yeosang said averting his gaze

Yunho looked around, suddenly an idea sprouting in his mind.

They were currently standing on one of the forested gravel paths but it was a bit of an incline.

"Is there anywhere around here that's . .flat? The ground I mean"

Yeosang looked about, mirroring Yunho's action, "At the top near the house" Yeosang said pointing up the path.

"Lets go there!" Yunho said before gesturing for Yeosang to lead the way.
