-SPECIAL CHAPTER-
"I'm home!" Chanyeol sang, dropping his bag, waiting for the familiar sound of tiny feet hitting the ground as his child ran towards him.
He frowned when he heard nothing.
"Chenlu? Jihoon?" He called out.
Silence.
He pouted. "did they go somewhere without me? No fair." He mumbled to himself, kicking his shoes off. He hung his coat on the rack and proceeded to walk to his and chenlu's bedroom, his shoulder slumped and his head hanging low.
Usually, this was his favourite part of the day.
When he'd come home and his wife and child would coming running to greet him with hugs and kisses. Chenlu only worked part time and so spent most her time with her son whilst Chanyeol was still promoting with exo.
He walked into his bedroom and smiled immediately.
"You really wore her out today, huh?" He chuckled to himself, loving the sight of his wife sleeping peacefully and jihoon laying on her chest, almost asleep. "You're such an active boy aren't you? Just like your dad."
Chanyeol strode towards the bed, careful not to wake chenlu and lifted jihoon up, his heart melting at how his son wrapped his arm around his neck instantly.
"Daddy?" Jihoon mumbled into his neck. Chanyeol hummed in response, rubbing his back. "I want to play. Can we play?"
Chanyeol chuckled and shook his head. "I think you need to have a little nap first, if mummy's tired you must be tired also." He said "But we can always play when you wake up."
Jihoon rubbed his eye. "Are you tired daddy?" He asked cocking his head to the side innocently.
Chanyeol nodded. "A little." He admitted.
Jihoons eyes widened. "Then I'm tired too."
Chanyeol chuckled at how he mispronounced his words but chose not to say anything, thinking it was cute. Jihoon spent most of his time his time with his mother and so, he spoke mandarin a lot more than he did Korean and sometimes managed to fuse the two languages together.
Chanyeol patted his head. "Are you copying me again?" He teased, poking his cheek. "That's not fair, you already stole my face.. now chenlu pays more attention to you than me." He said with, pulling jihoons ears that resembled his own.
Jihoon giggled and rubbed his eyes once more, trying to hide the fact that he was growing more and more tired by the minute.
Chanyeol smiled. "How about we get you to your bed-"
He was cut off when jihoon began to shake his head, whining in response. Chanyeol frowned and jihoon began to shift in his fathers arms, turning to his mother and making grabby hands at her, whining some more.
"You don't want to sleep alone?"
He shook his head.
"You want to sleep in your bed with daddy?"
He shook his head again. "Mummy." He mumbled, making grabby hands at her again, disregarding his father completely. "I want to sleep with mummy."
He chuckled. "Of course you do."
He kissed his sons forehead and placed him on the bed next to chenlu, who immediately rolled over and wrapped her arms around her son when she felt a dip in hers and chanyeol's shared bed.
"Chanyeol?" She mumbled sleepily, rubbing up and down jihoons back.
"Yes baby?" He asked, smiling softly.
"Welcome home." She said, smiling in her sleep. "I missed you."
Chanyeol smiled. No matter how tired his wife was. Whether it be from work or jihoon tiring her out (him getting his activeness from his father), she never, not once, failed to greet him.
Evidently even in her sleep.
He kissed her forehead. "I missed you too." He stroked jihoons hair. "Both of you."
"Come lie down with us?" She asked, peeking an eye open.
He nodded, taking off his shirt and hopping into bed with them both, wrapping his arms around his baby and his wife protectively.
This was his safe space.
This was his escape from everything.
When he wasn't doing much but he just felt so whole.
So complete.
"Chanyeol?" Chenlu mumbled out once more, much quieter this time, almost as if she secretly didn't want him to hear.
"Yes chenlu?"
"I'm pregnant again."
Sooooo,,,,, guess who's in school, out of lesssons, in alps because they're emotionally unstable!!! THIS GUYYY!!!
Now I'm even more behind work.
Fuck.
Anyways, here's a special chapter. There may potentially be more of these special chapters because if I'm completely honest with you guys, I really don't want to let go of this book yet.
So meet my grandchild, Jihoon😊💓
