"we're also planning on marrying them."

that word made doyoung stopped, he looked at his friends who immediately looked away because of his stares. doyoung just found out that jaehyun already knew he was a father of taeyong's son, how? just because the five of them suddenly barged inside doyoung's shop, asking for some help.

"you guys are also aware that there's also a possibility that they might get involved in punishment, right?" doyoung asked seriously.

"i mean, we can talk to our dad though. they are the only ones who have the power to stop the rule." jaehyun said seriously.

"do you even know what happened back then?" doyoung asked. "why did mark's grandfather create that rule which the other kings also approved as soon as the rule was created?"

"because they also fall in love with normal people but they were unlucky because they chose the wrong one." mark said, making the others look at him. "they just wanted their money, they made them fool. which my grandfather and the other kings can't accept the truth that the normal people can easily fool them. that the normal people used them without even trying."

"and that's when the rule was created, not wanting the next generation to also feel what they've been through. banning the people from the world to enter our universe, they even closed it. that's how mad they are to the people in this world." mark said. "but the current kings decided to open it again and let the people explore the world, but the rule stayed. and the only person who can stop it is only the king."

no one really dared to tell the story behind that rule, besides that they were not sure of the full story. they just really don't want to.

"and what if they didn't agree?" doyoung asked.

and that's made them silent.

"fix it first before you plan something with them," doyoung said seriously. "they were also my friends and i don't want to hurt them."

"how about you, doyoung?" mark asked. "don't act like you also didn't break the rule." he said seriously, which is enough to make doyoung stiff in his place.

"what are you fucking saying?" the older one hissed.

"i think you forgot that we used to look for your shop whenever you need to deliver something," yuta said calmly. "timing that someone who has a moon on his name came inside your shop and was looking for you."

"and we're not dumb to find out that he was your boyfriend," followed by johnny.

"but i don't live in the neo universe anymore," doyoung said calmly. "that's why i don't have to worry about those rules that we need to follow."

"but we all are in love," mark said seriously. "we fell in love with normal people, i hope you understand that we wait for this. we have waited to meet them for almost six years."

"but you guys still need to go back from the universe where you really lived," doyoung argued back. "i'm not stopping you guys from loving them because i know they also love you guys. what i mean is, you guys need to fix this first so no one will get hurt." he cleared out.

"that's the problem," jaehyun said. "we don't know how to fix it, we don't know if we came back to our universe. we will take another couple of years to come back here."

their conversation is getting more confusing now, all of them are aware that they broke the rule and they are asking doyoung how they are going to fix it. they even forget that they just have a limited time to stay here.

"if you guys can't talk to your father about stopping it," doyoung started. "take their throne."

"what do you mean?" the two princes asked.

"haven't you guys said that they were already planning about passing the throne?" doyoung asked. "get it and stop the rule on your own."

"but it will take a lot of time." jeno said.

"but it will make you guys live in peace, us." doyoung said. "if you really love them, you will do this."

"i'm sure i'm gonna do it, i already have a son and i want to marry taeyong." jaehyun said seriously.

they still have a few weeks from now before they go back to their universe, and they really don't waste any seconds to spend it with their loved ones.

jaehyun who already moved out at taeyong's house and enjoying the mean time with his family, trying his best to be the best dad for jaeyu. while johnny and ten, jeno and jaemin, yuta and winwin are also going out sometimes. exploring the place more, trying new things together with them without thinking the rule.

and mark? he was also near to move out at haechan's house since he was always there. as of now, he's currently playing marco's toys together with jaehyun since the kids are busy on ipad.

"lunch is ready!"

the four of them flinched on their seats and immediately hid the ipad that the kids were playing before handing them a toy, acting like they were playing it.

"hmm, the babies are behaving." taeyong said happily as he brushed their hair.

"cookies!" marco said happily and clapped his hands.

"jaehyun," taeyong called, smiling.

"love?" and jaehyun looked up at him, getting nervous at the same time.

"give it to me." he said calmly, still smiling.

the kids suddenly looked at each other and dramatically covered their mouth since they got caught playing ipad, while mark just looked away but he met haechan's eyes who's now raising his eyebrow at him.

"i'm out of it, love." and he raised both of his hands.

"love, sorry..." jaehyun said as he pouted, slowly giving up the ipad.

"i told you to stop letting him use any gadgets because it will affect his eyes," taeyong scolded. "yet you didn't listen to me."

"dada, chill!" jaeyu said giggly, which made the other kid beside him nodded cutely.

"mr. dimple is getting scolded, are you going to cry now?" marco asked cutely.

"daddy is such a crybaby." followed by jaeyu that made them laugh.

"you kids—"

"aaa! daddy!"

marco immediately ran towards mark, that's why jaehyun failed to tickle him also. jaeyu is now laughing because his dad is tickling him.

"aw, the babies are playing, how about we eat already, hmm?" taeyong said as he stopped the two.

marco was now sitting between his dada and daddy and he was watching the two of them placing some food on his plate. he looks small between them. that's why whenever his parents look at him, they can't help not to coo.

"i have a complete family now!" marco said happily as he hugged both of their arms.

"our family tree is finally complete!" jaeyu said who also heard marco.

haechan and taeyong suddenly look at each other and they can't help not to smile, maybe someday... haechan will finally admit the truth.

"i can't believe our son will be this close." jaehyun said as they watched the kids playing outside the house.

"yeah, knowing that we argued a lot. who knows that it was the opposite for our kids." mark said and let out a chuckle.

"are you really going to adopt marco once we get everything fixed in our universe?" the older one asked, mark nodded.

"but i will make sure first that his real father is no longer coming back, i don't want any headaches." mark said.

"what if you're really the father?"

and it made mark stop, he was really avoiding that thing because he knows, there's really a huge possibility that marco is his son.

"if ever he is, i want haechan to tell it on his own." mark said calmly. "and he might have a reason why he doesn't want to tell it."

"besides, i can't see any abilities to marco that are the same as mine. so, i can't really tell if he was my child." he finished off.

the two of them are now having a smile on their faces while watching the kids playing, not until jaeyu started to make his dada's plant floats.

"baby, put it down!" jaehyun started to freak out. "oh god..."

"that was your siblings, jaeyu. so, be careful." mark said and let out a chuckle.

"that was so cool!" marco said happily and clapped his hands. "do it again!"
