The Adventure of a Lifetime Part 2: Texas Bound

I choose the two songs, because it dawned on me one day how life must be at times for them. Going out, even to the store, people are always going to recognize them. How often do they get disturbed? Do they feel at times that they have to hide away, just so they can be themselves, even with each other. And then, I wondered how often staff is around. How often do they get to be alone? That's why I wrote this chapter. For at least in a story, they get to have one day, were they were free to just be. They may have been incognito, but their true selves still shined through.

I don't know that I would be able to handle it with the grace they have. Actually, I know I wouldn't be able to. And it makes me adore them and wish the very best for them always. 8 is FATE!

Note: *FAFO=Fuck Around, Find Out (for those that do not know that expression)

Silent Cry by Stray Kids

The next morning, I'm awoken to giggling. I look up from between Chris and Changbin to my two children standing there smiling. "Come on Mom, get up. We got stuff to do!" I look at Don and roll my eyes. Quietly, I got up and ready to help them when I'd smelled coffee brewing. "Oh, bless your hearts babies! You made coffee." "Yeah, but go take your shower first. We'll start pulling everything out for breakfast."

Doing exactly what they said, I took a hot shower, then dressed in lounge wear since I knew Ren and the guys would be over later with some outfits for all of us. As I walk out, I'm greeted by Tony handing me a steaming cup of joe. "Thank you. Now what are you two planning? I know that look." Just as I finish speaking, my two launch themselves on to the bed, scaring the hell outta Chris and Binnie, both of whom scream.

"What the...AHHHHHH!!!!! LYNN, GET THESE TWO NEANDERTHALS OFF ME!!!!"

"WAAAA, WHY AM I BEING ATTACKED TOO??? BABE!!!!!"

Neither of the guys had even known I'd taken a shower. Just as I had started to close the bathroom door, I had watched my two gorgeous lovers snuggle up together. The sight always makes me smile and get all happy inside. But now, they are ready to hurt my two kids. From my vantage point by the bedroom door, I stand there watching and laughing hysterically, being careful to not spill my coffee.

One of the absolutely favorite things I love to do, is watch the interactions between my kids and the guys. They love the guys so much. They are very much their older brothers, and it makes me laugh. Especially when they do stuff like this to them.

"LYYYNNNNNN, HELP!!!!" Chris is crying from laughter as he is being tickled by Don. I don't even hear Jeongin walking up behind me till he takes the coffee out of my hands, setting it down, then scooped up in his arms and throw on to the bed. He joins in the melee, and the four of us tickle Chris and Changbin without abandon.

"THIS IS NOT WHAT HE MEANT LYNN!" Changbin's squeal has us all falling to the side in hysterics. We finally crawl off them and help them get up.

"Oh, my gawd you four! And you two, there will be payback." Changbin points at Don and Tony. "You are not going to know when, but just know it will happen." Binnie looks up at them, giving them the evil eye. I see the glint in Don's eyes. Oh no.

He walks forward and bends down. "Awe, the wittle dweakki is so adorable when it is angwy." Slapping my hands over my mouth to keep the laughter in, somewhat, I watch Bin's reaction. Changin's mouth drops open, and Don reaches forward and pinches Changbin's cheeks. I lose my shit the moment Chris, Jeongin, Tony and I look at each other. The four of us fall to the ground howling in laughter, clutching our sides, as Changbin takes after Don.
