Kim Seunghun arrived just in time for a car to park in front of the house. The international law student spun his heels as he stared at the newly arrived convoy of luxury cars.

The first one to step out of the car was a tall japanese who held the door of the car and allowed three other people to step out.

Yedam stepped out of the second car followed by two other boys. Seunghun met Yedam's eyes and nodded awkwardly. Doyoung was right, the innocent Yedam had been replaced by this majestic one.

The group approached him in interest. The first person that he saw stared at the owner of the manor and asked, "Yedam hyung, you have a guest?"

"I did not know he would be visiting" Bang Yedam eyed Haruto in a deadpan manner and shrugged. He immediately stared at his unexpected visitor and invited, "We are having a barbecue party. Junkyu hyung and Jihoon hyung should be inside"

Seunghun followed the group inside the manor and through the garden. The view that greeted them was Junkyu standing on the grill with a kitchen tong on his hand and eyes trained on the meat being barbecued.

Jihoon was assisting Junkyu while Yoonbin has a plate of cooked food on his hand and was placing it on the table. Byounggon was arranging the dishes while Hyunsul was pouting sitting.

Junkyu was the first to notice the group's arrival. "Hmm? Hun hyung?"

Mashiho frowned and briskly made his way towards the table and took a seat next to Hyunsuk. Junkyu's eyes followed Mashiho and smiled. He motioned Haruto to take the responsibility of grilling the meat by passing the tong over before he walked towards Mashiho.

Haruto who took the tongs stared at it helplessly. Jeongwoo saw that and sighed, he took over the job and ordered Haruto what to do.

"Haru is born to take orders" Junghwan concluded as he watched his friend grumbling as he was pushed to task by Jeongwoo and Jihoon. Keita chuckled in agreement and Asahi nodded silently. Junghwan directed his attention to the table and observed, "Kyu hyung is as whipped as always"

"I think Mashi is more whipped, though. Don't you agree, Asahi?" Keita commented while Asahi sighed and replied, "it goes both ways"

Junghwan cackled as he bobbed his head in agreement. He watched Junkyu trying to console a sulking Mashiho and ended with blushing furiously while covering his face.

"Kei-kei, if you slow. We'll eat this all" Hyunsuk called while furiously waving his hand. Keita frowned as he dragged Asahi and Junghwan towards the table.

Yedam grinned as he watched Seunghun who was watching the scene stupified. He asked, "What do you think of my family, hyung?"

Seunghun collected his composure and faced Yedam who was waving at Hyunsuk back. Bitterly, he had admitted, "A warm one"

Yedam dived his hands on his pocket and stared at the person who he treated as an older brother before. Before he left without saying goodbye. The happy smile on Yedam's face disappeared and there was only a chilling gaze that pierces deeply into Seunghun's bones.

"I'd do anything to keep this family. I don't know what you and Doyoung are planning but" Yedam took a step forward, aura obviously menacing. "I advise you to take your hands off my crew"

"We are not planning anything" Seunghun replied as he withheld Yedam's midnight black orbs. "And I won't hurt anyone in your group. I don't have enough power to do so"

"You better do that, hyung. I still respect you as my tutor as a kid. Don't take that away and cut off all ties with you too" Yedam took a step back making Seunghun release an unconscious breath. The scowl was immediately replaced by an innocent smile, "I don't really care about it, Hyung. But, it's best if you give up on Jihoon hyung early. Yoonbin hyung is not someone easy to antagonize"

Yedam giggled as he saw Seunghun scowl at him. He narrowed his eyes playfully, "You don't hide it that effectively. Anyways, will you eat barbecue with us?"

"Yah! HARUTO YOU BURNED THE MEAT!!!" Jeongwoo's voice surprised everyone. They stared at the japanese samurai who was obviously thinking that the meat would cook faster if the fire is stronger. Haruto frowned as he got reprimanded, Jeongwoo can't stay mad at a pout Haruto and sighed. "Okay, okay, no need to sulk. Let's try to fix it."

Haruto flashed a smile and ruffled Jeongwoo's hair. "You're the best"

Junghwan stared at Asahi and asked, "Weren't you suppose to be the best, hyung?"

Asahi grinned and shrugged as he answered, "All babies grow up. They leave their parents once they marry"

"Odd. I'm supposed to he Haru's father. When did you become his parent?" Yoonbin pointed out, his arms wrapped around Jihoon's waist and his chin resting on his boyfriend's shoulder. Asahi smirked in defiance and declared, "Thanks for raising my son"

"Savage Asahi awakens" Hyunsuk chuckled while leaning slightly on Byounggon who was making a ssam for Hyunsuk to eat. He scolded his boyfriend lightly, "You better shut up, he'd bite you"

"I guess we know where Haruto got his idiotic side" Asahi shrugged staring at the blonde who ate the meat wrapped in lettuce from Byounggon's hands.

Byounggon sighed and noted. "See."

"Yedammie, Seunghun hyung, come join us" Jihoon called the two who were still standing near the entrance of the garden. Yoonbin directed his gaze to the visitor and tightened his hold on Jihoon's waist. Park Jihoon dropped his hands and stared at his tsundere boyfriend then whispered, "Aren't you too jealous?"

Yoonbin glared at Jihoon displeased and muttered, "If you don't stop talking, I'll kiss you breathless"

"Hey, we've got minors here" Keita covered Junghwan's ears. Jihoon chuckled and stopped talking, he knew Yoonbin was serious but as much as he'd love kissing his boyfriend they don't need to corrupt other people's eyes.

Yedam and Seunghun approached the table. Mashiho leaned towards Junkyu and chuckled, "It seems like I'm not the one who should be worried"

"I've told you that Hun hyung has always been just a friend" Junkyu whispered back chuckling as he kissed Mashiho on his cheeks to coo him.

"I'm fine but someone might not be" Mashiho chuckled as he kissed Junkyu's hands that have been entwined with his. A new habit that he had adopted. Junkyu tilted his head in confusion making Mashiho kiss him once on the lips as he whispered, "Nothing that you need to worry about"

"Hey! Minors in the area!" Keita scolded Mashiho as he moved to cover Junghwan's eyes. Junkyu flusteredly pushed Mashiho away lightly. Byounggon sighed as he noticed Jeongwoo watching the scene in embarrassment. Haruto was munching meat.

Kim Seunghun frowned, he stared at Yoonbin who was also staring at him with a smirk and sighed. He turned his attention to Yedam and handed the folder that was clipped on his arms, "I came here to hand this over."

Yedam took the folder and scanned its contents, he nodded towards Seunghun and smiled, "No need. I know you would play this bit. I'd participate"

Seunghun nodded, keeping the poker face on his expression. "Good, I'll inform my father of the decision. Then, I will bid farewell"

"Have a meal with us before you go?" Junkyu suggested while Jihoon agreed by nodding his head as he was still not allowed to speak. Seunghun smiled weakly and declined, "Next time, I have an appointment with my father's secretary after this"

"Okay" Junkyu beamed brightly and added "Mail us when you're available, we have a lot to catch up"

"Sure" Seunghun stared at Yedam and the rest of the group before he bowed slightly and made his exit. As soon as the blonde student attorney was out of sight, Mashiho glanced at Yoonbin.

"If you meet with him tell me first" Yoonbin ordered at his boyfriend who was still acting mute. " And, you can speak now"

"Thank you, milord" Jihoon laughed and kissed Yoonbin's cheeks. "And you don't have to be so jealous. He's my childhood friend"

"I'm also your childhood friend but look where we are now" Yoonbin pointed out obviously displeased. Jihoon sighed and promised, "Okay, I promise to tell you if I'm meeting someone. "

"Good"

"Ready yourself, Haru. You'd get to the stage that you'd report to Jeongwoo of your whereabouts" Keita chuckled as he stared at Haruto who was standing while eating the meat on the plate sneakily.

"Why do I need to?" Haruto scowled while Jeongwoo tilted his head.

"Because Jeongwoo is gonna go full parent mode on you. I predict it"

"I agree" Junghwan chuckled while Jeongwoo seriously thought of it and nodded his head, "Right, that seems convenient. I can make sure that he is not spreading trouble"

"See?" Keita laughed while Haruto stared at Jeongwoo slightly scrunching his nose as he thought about it before he replied, "I can do that as long as you bring snack over every time"

"He's being tamed easily" Asahi and Mashiho whispered in a chorus as the heard their maknae answer. "Jeongwoo might be the legendary Watanabe tamer"

"What's a Watanabe tamer?" Jihoon asked Yoonbin as he listened to the japanese duo's conversation. Yoonbin leaned close to Jihoon's ears and answered in a voice that only he can hear, "Mashi's Junkyu, Gon's Hyunsuk and Yoobin's Jihoon."
