"Daaaad!!"
Mu Qing groaned opening his eyes slowly, checking at the clock next to him.
5:00 am.
"You have to be kidding me, what are they doing up so early"
He grabbed the pillow and put it over his head. He was about to fall asleep again when he felt someone kicking him.
"Hmm!!"
"Wake up, he is calling for you" murmured a half asleep Feng Xin
"It's five in the morning, what could they possibly need at this hour, they still have one hour left to sleep, this damn kids"
After complaining Mu Qing finally lifted his head and sitting on the bed stretching widely he opened his eyes.
His dark hair was a complete mess. But luckily last week he and Feng Xin got a pretty well deserve hair cut, their hair had gotten way to long to handle it and it was starting to become a problem dealing with it. So last week they finally went for that cut. Just above his shoulders, it was still long but easier to handle.
Luckily Fu Yao and Nan Feng were still young and their hair was a little pass their ears so they could let it grow a little more before thinking of cutting it.
The sound of something being ripped and the sound of screaming immediately set the alarms of both parents.
They both got out of bed.
Feng Xin jumping out of it and running to the kids room with Mu Qing following close behind.
Thank god they lived in a small apartment with two rooms. The kids were still small so they shared one room, but Mu Qing had been trying to convince Feng Xin to move to a bigger place cause the little fights between the two kids were mostly because the lack of respect for boundaries.
Feng Xin opened the door and immediately went inside and took a hold of Nan Feng who was on top of Fu Yao with his hand on the blondes hair, who was screaming at the top of his lungs, tears on his eyes from the pain on his head and his throat.
Mu Qing went over Fu Yao and quickly lifted him in his arms trying to calm him down.
"WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED!!!" Demanded Feng Xin moving as far as he could from Mu Qing and Fu Yao to calm down Nan Feng.
"HE RIPPED MY FAVORITE SHIRT!" Fu Yao cry in Mu Qing's neck
"HE HIT ME FIRST CAUSE HE SAID I STOLE HIS STUPID SHIRT!!!"
"LENGUAJE!!!" Both parents scream
"IT WAS IN YOUR DRAWER YOU STOLE IT!"
"I DIDN'T EVEN PUT IT THERE!"
"OKAY ENOUGH YOU TWO, STOP NOW!"
Both boys immediately shut up as Mu Qing yelled them to stop. Nan Feng angry glare was still on his brother while the other boy could only sniff in his father's shoulder clutching his now ripped shirt.
"I'm gonna take Fu Yao, you calm Nan Feng"
Feng Xin only nodded, his focus on a teary Nan feng who's gaze was now focused on his socks as it were the most interesting thing in the world, and his right hand on his cheek were he had been punched earlier.
Oh god this kids. They really take after their dads.
***
Mu Qing entered his room and sat on the bed with a now fully crying Fu Yao on his lap.
"Shh shh is okay, you need to calm down first, otherwise dad won't be able to help you"
He start rubbing Fu Yao's back slowly trying to get the kid to stop crying, but he also understood that sometimes it was also a way to let it all out, so he didn't bother to force him to stop.
Finally after some minutes just little sniffles could be heard. Fu Yaoi lifted his head looking at his dad with a pitiful expression.
"Better?" Mu Qing ask, using his thumb to wipe the tears on his son face.
The kid shook his head looking down at the blue shirt in his hands.
"Don't worry, you know I'm good with the needle. After you return from school I promise it would be fixed"
Fu Yao didn't answer and only look up at his father hopefully.
"Really?" The kid murmured
"Really"
Fu Yao gave his shirt to his dad before laying on his chest.
"You know, I think it was me who put your shirt in your brothers drawer by accident. But still is not an excuse to accuse Nan Feng of stealing and throw him a punch"
"I know, but he shouldn't have ripped my shirt"
"That's right he shouldn't have, but a shirt can be fixed, but if something were to happen to Nan Feng that you can't fix"
Mu Qing rubbed Fu yaos hair until the boy stop crying complete and was on a much better disposition.
In that exact time the door of the room opened showing Feng Xin entering with Nan feng in his arms.
They both share a look understanding each other, Mu Qing make room in the bed for Feng Xin to sit next to him.
"Nan feng, wanna tell that your side of the story?" Ask Feng Xi patting his son's back
Nan feng who's face was hide in his papa's chest let out a sniff before lifting his head looking at his dad and brother.
"We woke up early cause dad always says there's no time in the morning to eat breakfast while watching TV, so we thought if we got ready earlier we could ask dad to let us watch some tv before going to school" Nan Feng explained playing with the hem of his shirt
Mu Qing rolled his eyes, of course they would have such vage reasons to wake up this early.
"The answer was gonna be no anyway so why bother" Mu Qing murmured getting two pair of eyes on him
"WHY!?" The kids demanded
"Because then would be another fight to turn the tv off and go, you guys never listen" Feng Xin said this time, kinda agreeing with his husband.
"We would have listen papa! Promise!" Cry Fu Yao squirming out of Mu Qing's arms and throw himself to Feng Xin. Nan Feng didn't feel like being close to his brother just yet, and Immediately crawled to Mu Qing's lap.
"Enough of that, then what happened"
Both kids looked at each other before Fu Yao continue.
"I couldn't find my shirt and I saw Nan Feng pulling it out of his drawer..."
"And he said I stole and he punch me so I ripped his stupid shirt!"
"Lenguaje!" Both parents say again
"Is not stupid!! Your are stupid!"
Seeing that the boys were getting agitated they were quick to stop them from getting into a fiscal fight again.
"Okay okay now, Nan Feng I already talk to Fu Yao about how it was me who put the shirt in the wrong drawer, dad is sorry about that, and that is not right to just assume things and throw punches before an explanation" Mu Qing said to Nan Feng who was looking at his brother
"And Fu Yao i already talk with Nan Feng about how is not right to just destroy things out of rage, so boys anything you wan to say to each other?" Feng Xin asked making Fu Yao who was laying down sit on his lap to face his brother.
"I understand sharing a room can be difficult, your papa and I appreciate the effort you both put until we find a place to move, but this little fights need to stop" Mu Qing looked at both kids giving them a warm smile
Surprisingly Fu Yao was the first to speak
"Sorry for saying that you stole my shirt...and for hitting you" the last part didn't sound so convincing for both parents
"Sorry for ripping your shirt, I know dad can fix it he is very good at it"
Mu Qing gave a little smile at the statement, Feng Xin chuckle.
Fu Yao crawled to his dad's lap to hug his brother who didn't seemed to mind and instead return the hug.
The two boys love each other, they just sometimes had a little but of trouble expressing themselves.
Just like their dads not long ago.
Now with things finally solve Mu Qing could finally rest for the 30 minutes they have left before the mornign could officially start.
And apparently he wasn't the only one with that though cause not long after he close his eyes, he felt Feng Xin cuddle next to him and the two boys on his lap breathing slowly cuddling each other.

"Dad you promise my shirt would be fixed when I come back from school?" Fu Yao ask as he was sitting in front of the tv while Mu Qing was sitting behind him doing his hair.
At the end they had let the boys watch some tv before school, not during breakfast cause then they wouldn't have eaten anything, but while brushing their hair it was acceptable.
Next to them was Nan Feng and Feng Xin behind him doing his hair. Both boys preferred to go with a normal pony tails.
"Yes I already said I will, don't worry, you can wear it tomorrow. There all done" Mu Qing smile at his work on his son's hair before giving him a quick kiss on his cheek.
Fu Yao didn't object, just smiled at his dad before throwing himself at him for a hug.
"Thank you daddy" the kid whispered
Mu Qing hug him harder. They didn't normally call him daddy cause they said they were to old for that. It walys make Mu Qing sad cause it was a reminder of his boys growing up, so he couldn't take for granted moments like this.
"You welcome my love" he murmured back
"Now go and take your bag is time to go"
Mu Qing quickly gave Nan Feng a quick kiss on his cheek before going to the kitchen for the car keys.
Nan Feng smile at his dad before feeling being lifted up by his papa, once in his arms he received another kiss this time on his forehead.
"Ready to go?"
"Yes papa I'm ready, and thank for making my hair" the boy said hugging his papa, before demanding to be put down to follow his brother.
Feng Xin smile while entering the kitchen, he went and hug Mu Qing from behind, his head resting on his husband's back.
"Are the kids ready?" ask Mu Qing sipping on his coffee
"They didn't have their bags ready we got time"
Mu Qing turn round to face his husband and raise an eyebrow.
"Your hair is a mess"
"Maybe you could fix it for me"
"Aren't you capable?"
"I prefer to get some help" Feng Xin moved closer and gently pressed his lips against Mu qing's
Mu Qing was quick to react and didn't waste time before pushing his tongue inside Feng Xin.
Feng Xin grabbed his husband hair putting him in place while they continue aggressively making out, and just as Mu Qing's hand was starting to go south the sound of two sets of feet quickly make them pull apart.
"We are ready!" Came the voices of the kids who were already waiting at the door
Mu Qing's back was facing again Feng Xin who knew he needed to take the kids quick to school if he wanted to actually see his husband face right now.
"Be right back, be ready when i return" he whispered in his husband ear before taking the car keys off his hand and going towards the door.
"Is dad not taking us today?" Ask Nan Feng curiously
"Dad still needs to get ready for work so I'll be taking you guys and then I'll come take for your dad"
He opened the door letting the boys out before closing it.
Mu Qing who was still in the kitchen with a blushing face and a tent down his pants didn't waste time in running towards their bedroom to get ready to great his husband once he returns.
Besides, they kids entered school way earlier that them to work and because during the morning they had to take care of a fight, it was a nice reward they both deserved.
