After the whole cuddling season, he could hear Jeongin's stomach grumble. Hyunjin laughed as the younger grimaced and held his stomach.

Jisung, who also heard sat up and laughed. The cute blush covering Jeongin's cheeks made him coo over the younger. "We should get something to eat right?"

"Can't Chan hyung cook today?? It won't be Chan's kitchen if you don't cook hyung!" Hyunjin turned to face Chan, giggling as the others also looked at the older.

"Chan's kitchen?" Felix smiles as Hyunjin laughed. "Well, should you fulfill their wishes?"

Chan pretended to think about it, a playful smile on his lips. "Hm...alright. Today I will make food for all of you kids."

"Yah! I'm not a kid!" They laughed as Chan shook his head at the boys in front of him.

It took him a while to actually come to the kitchen. Jeongin had whined when he offered to help, pouting as he promised the younger that they would cuddle later.

And with that he headed towards the kitchen, dragging Chan with. Woojin told them something about getting rice before disappearing down the corridor.

Chan began cutting out the meat as Hyunjin chopped vegetables and washed the ingredients. He looked over to the older.

The other alpha looked handsome in general but now when he looked all relaxed and happy, Hyunjin could help but blush. He hadn't actually cared so much about studying their features before but he got to admit, Chan looked pretty hot.

He wondered if the older had many fangirls.

No surprise actually. All of them would surely be popular in the world. He wondered how they found him, even though he avoided people.

Chan looked up and Hyunjin turned quickly away, trying to hide the blush. He didn't need to see the smirk, from where he stood it clearly showed in the alpha's scent.

Vibrations of a phone interrupted his thought. Chan put the knife down before picking up. Hyunjin vaguely saw a unknown number but decided to not grumble on that as he continued to cut the vegetables.

"Yeah, it's Chan." The older's expression changed to serious as the person on the phone said something.

He released a sigh. "I'll be there in a minute. Keep them there, in one piece please."

Hyunjin froze. He knew he was naive, not even battling a thought on their work.

After all, those eight was mafia. They sold drugs, used violence and tortured people.

Killed people.

He was aware that he also was kidnapped. In short, he didn't know if any of them were legal.

Chan turned around and faced him. "Sorry, Jinnie. Seems like I have to go."

He met Woojin's gaze over the younger's shoulder and nodded. The oldest of the three put the rice down before heading towards the door. Chan turned back and smiled softly.

"We'll do this another time, alright?" Hyunjin nodded absently. Chan leaned in and kissed him softly, causing him to flush. "I'll be back soon."

Then, he was gone. Hyunjin sighed as he put down the knife. He nodded against a maid who bowed, leaving the vegetables on the bench as he left.

~~

Jeongin stuck in his head into Hyunjin's room. "Hyung?"

He smiled softly as he saw the older laying on bed, staring out of the window. He mad this way towards Hyunjin, the older had turned his back towards him. "Are you ok?"

Hyunjin nodded. He turned around and snuggled against Jeongin, making him coo over his cute hyung. The younger settled down beside Hyunjin, hands sneaking to his hips to pull them closer.

"Innie?" Hyunjin didn't meet his eyes as he played with a loose thread in the light blue sweater. "Yeah?"

"I miss my family." Jeongin tensed. This was the first time the older ever admitted something like this. He smiled softly, stroking the black hair as Hyunjin pressed his face against his chest. He giggled as he felt the older inhale his scent.

Hyunjin reminded him of Felix when they cuddled after his heat. The older hummed calmly, scent showing his satisfaction.

"Want me to make you forget the sadness?" Hyunjin nodded against his sweater.

"I just have much on my mind Jeonginnie."

"Then, let me stay with you tonight. I will take care of you." He felt the warm feeling fill his chest and smiled against Jeongin's chest, hand slightly fisting the sweater.

"Yeah, stay."
