Querencia

54

Eunjae didn't particularly want to call his parents, as they always talked his ear off about unimportant things, like girls. But Minghao had insisted, wanting to make sure that Eunjae got permission and couldn't back out. He really wanted Eunjae to come with, so he could meet his family and see his hometown. That and he didn't want to think about what it would be like to be separated from him, even if it was only a short while.

Eunjae couldn't say no to Minghao's cute face, and Minghao had quickly caught onto that fact.

He was tempted to regret it, as he kept hearing the words "girlfriend", "marriage" and "children." 

"I was just calling to tell you I'm going away for break, do we have to go through this again? Most parents don't want their underage kids to have children, you know that right?" 

Eunjae's parents voices were too muffled, and they spoke too fast for Minghao to make sense of their words. 

"My friend Minghao invited me to come home."

"No, he's not a girl, mom." An exasperated sigh left Eunjae's lips, "yes, I'm positive. And no, I'm not proving it to you." 

Minghao decided that he had been nice enough, and he quickly decided he could spent his time much better by terrorizing Eunjae instead. A devilish smile rose to his lips as he began to move.

"Yes mom, I trust him - " Minghao deftly put his hand on Eunjae's thigh, and Eunjae gave him a warning glance, but they both knew he couldn't do anything while he was still on the phone. 

"Well, that's the thing, he's from China." Minghao gave an impish smile as he began kissing Eunjae's shoulder, while also rubbing his thigh up and down, like a very amateur masseuse.

Pushing him away was futile, as Minghao just bit his arm instead. 

"Really mom? I say I'm going to another country and your first response is - ow!" Eunjae clenched his teeth, rubbing his red shoulder as he mouthed a few choice words at the now laughing Minghao.

"What? Oh no, I'm fine, it's just this... puppy. He's so cute, but he loves biting me. He demands attention all the time, but he's too adorable to resist."

In a way, Minghao was like a puppy. Perfectly irritating, but loveable, just like a puppy. And Eunjae loved puppies. 

Not that he loved Minghao, though.

Grabbing a fist full of his hair, Eunjae pulled Minghao into his lap, using his free hand to comb through Minghao's hair in an attempt to satisfy the little brat. 

"So can I go with Minghao?" Eunjae tried to lean away from Minghao's prying hands, but eventually gave up, letting him run his fingers across his lips and tug on his nose. "No mom, I won't promise to meet a nice chinese girl to marry. The break is a little short for true love, don't you think?" 

Eunjae shivered as Minghao moved a hand to creep up his shirt, poking and prodding the skin in an attempt to get Eunjae to jump.

"You know what, never mind. I don't want to go with him anymore." 

Finally, he got Minghao's attention, and he tried to keep a neutral expression as the smaller boy immediately hugged him, staring up at him with wide,  pleading eyes and pursed lips.

"I knew that would work," Eunjae smirked at Minghao, "what? Oh, nothing, I was just talking to myself. Thanks mom, I promise next break, I'll come home, okay?" 

Minghao should have been worried about what would happen when Eunjae finally hung up, but instead he was thrilled, as Eunjae pinned him down with a serious expression. Minghao tried to struggle, just for the fun of it, and he felt Eunjae's legs squeezing his waist until he couldn't even wiggle.

If Eunjae was actually going to teach Minghao a lesson, he would be better off just ignoring Minghao, but he would much rather play along.

"My Minghao is a little brat." Though it wasn't a nice thing to say, the way he said it made Minghao's heart race. And the way he tilted his head when he said it was enough to take Minghao's breath away.

Brat or not, Minghao always got what he wanted, and this time was no different, as Eunjae leaned down to kiss him, once again giving him his full attention.
