A/N: I want to start off by saying that I know it has been a while since I have last updated, with everything going on I haven't had much time to write. That being said I what I did write 3 chapters totaling roughly 10k words & felt like a bunch of unnecessary word vomit. I do not want to put out garbage or even something that is subpar to my own standards. If I don't even like or enjoy what I wrote, then why would I subject that to my readers. I would much rather put out a decent chapter even if it takes a bit longer to write and edit.
I have a lot of details about something that happened at Beyol Joon's swim meet that will put things into perspective late as well as make somethings actually make sense, but I feel that now is just not the time to disclose it. So, if it seems like I am brushing past it or that some new names and faces randomly appear that is why.
Also, after finally editing all 3 chapters and 10K words my Microsoft account somehow fupped up big time and I lost all that works so I am now trying to rewrite what I had lost and do my best to keep everything as straight as I can but sadly, I can't remember everything. I feel so stupid for not catching the error sooner.
Though I am keeping this novel free for my readers, I still feel as if I have let yall down since it has been about or even more than a month since I last posted an actual chapter. I still have daily supporters & readers and though yall are but a handful or 2, your support means the world to me! It also helps to keep me writing and posting. I maybe writing this for my own enjoyment, but I also want others to enjoy it as well, even if it's just a handful or 2. (´｡• ᵕ •｡`) <3
To those of you who continue to support me by reading and through power stones, I will be listing your names in my author's note at the end of every chapter for now on. It is my small way of trying to give back to yall. Thank you again for your continued support, it means the world to me. As always, this novel will remain free for those who wish to read it.
I retain all my rights to my work, characters and images. I know that due to my unique medical issues I won't always be able to write and update as frequently as I wish to and that is a major contributing factor as to why I choose to not take a contract out for this novel. Thank you for your time and without further ado, please enjoy this chapter.
Sincerely,
Tiffinee, Mrs_TNT, author

Nix's P.O.V.:
Nix was beyond happy that he was able to make it in time so watch Beyol Joon compete. He enjoyed his time cheering on his little brother as he proudly watched his little brother win every event he competed in.
Not only were his times the fastest but he also had the high scores when it came to diving. Only San Woo-Young beat him when in his diving scores.
He equally cheered on San Woo-Young and the rest of Joon-ah's teammates, when they weren't directly competing against Beyol Joon. ＼＼\(۶•̀ᴗ•́)۶//／／
He was in such a good mood that he didn't even mind all the photos and pictures people were taking of him. Most of whom at least had the decency to sneak them while others were blatant about it. He realizes that he would have to get used to it since he would be participating on The Chef & The Celebrity, so he decided to just shrug it off, smile and pretend he did not notice any of it.
After the awards were handed out, all the swimmers left to shower and change while the audience dispersed. Some went home, some stayed to take their child or friend home and amongst them there were a few college scouts. He noticed there were also a few people who seemingly seemed to be just conversing while the staff began to clean up.
He decided to just wait for Beyol Joon and San Woo-Young near the locker room to make it easier to meet up with them. He planned to invite San Woo-Young home for dinner, and perhaps, even to spend the night.
He not only would like to get to know the young man his little brother considers his best friend but also with whom he has a crush on. He would like to help both boys to not just confess their feelings for one another but also show them that he supports them, that no matter what they won't be alone, no matter what.
He knows that his family, The Beyols, will still love and support Beyol Joon because they are in no way homophobic and believe that as long as it is not an adult and child relationship or a relationship between a human and an animal then it is normal and should be treated as such. He has no doubt that they will not love San Woo-Young as well as support both boys in their relationship if they choose to take it beyond just friendship.
He just is not sure how San Woo--Young's family will take it. He also realizes that most of society will still have a problem with it but he also knows that, that mind set is slowly changing and that soon same sex relationships between betas will become more widely accepted.
After he was approached by a few alphas and even some betas and he politely acknowledged them and sent them on their way, both of his boys finally came out of the lockeroom, together. He could not help but smile broadly about that and even gave San Woo-Young a wink which had the boy blushing. Beyol Joon noticed the blush and was unable to keep hide the look of hurt and displeasure from his eyes and face before Nix caught it.
'Oh, my little Joon-ah. You're such a jealous one, aren't you? If you only knew that, that blush was because your little boyfriend, well hopefully soon to be anyways, is blushing because he knows I know how he really feels about you.' He thought to himself with a chuckle and shake of his head.
When both boys reached him, he stepped forward and hugged them both surprising both boys that Nix would hug San Woo-Young but to Nix he was already family, and he counted him as his little brother-in-law. Upon seeing their flustered and surprised faces, he explained his actions to them.
-Nix: - "What is with those looks? Oh, sorry if I made you feel uncomfortable San Woo-Young. I just already consider you as part of the family. I have taken you on as my little brother since you are after all Joon-ah's BF." He deliberately said BF instead of best friend as it could also mean boyfriend. It was his way of hinting towards it as well as teasing both boys.
-San Woo-Young: - (｡◕ ∀ ◕｡) - "Huh? BF...?"
-Beyol Joon: - discretely glanced over at Woo-Young before pulling Nix for another quick hug -
(⁙ὸ‿ό⁙) - "Aww, well Hyung is as sweet and loving as always! But then again, it is hard not to love Woo-Young, huh?"
-San Woo-Young: - did a double take to look Beyol Joon head on in disbelief and ears red with embarrassment for thinking he might just have meant it the way his heart longs for. -
(⁎⁍̴̛ᴗ⁍̴̛⁎) - "Ha, well... thanks for that Joon but you should mind your words, if someone who did not know any better were to overhear, they would take what you just said the wrong way.
-Nix: - "But, San Woo-Young, Joon-ah is correct. It is hard not to love you, after all what's not to love? I only met you this morning and even I can tell you are a good person. After all, Joon-ah only surrounds himself with good people and he is a great judge of character."
-San Woo-Young: - "Ha, well if you say so. But I do agree Joon does have a good sense of judging people. It's a good thing he's such a great guy because if not it would be scary to see how he could use that ability to manipulate people. That said I know he would never do that." (..＞◡＜..)
-Beyol Joon: - "And yet I manage to miss just how fuc... sorry, I mean messed up that black lotus bitch Lee Eun-ae truly is. （ꐦ𝅒_𝅒） Sorry Hyung, I know you don't want me to curse but that is the nicest way I can describe that "it", who doesn't deserve to be called her, she, female or even human!" (〃＞＿＜;〃)
-Nix: - (ভ_ ভ) -"Oh, Joon-ah. It is not your fault at all, and I am the one to blame the most if it comes to being naive and missing her true character but then again, she is a psychopath and may even be a sociopath, now that I think about it... that probably is what it is. She is a great actress when it comes to real life, if only she could act that well in front of the camera. Also it is fine, she is a fucking psychotic black lotus, green tea bitch! Feel free to call her what she is. Heck even Appa and Eomma both called her a bitch too so, yeah."
-San Woo-Young: - "Who are we discussing?"
-Beyol Joon: - "I'll tell you about it all later. If it is ok with Hyung that is?"
-Nix: - "Sure that is fine by me. This Hyung trust our little Woo-Young-ah." (^_~) <3
-San Woo-Young: - ... (⁄ ⁄•⁄ω⁄•⁄ ⁄) ... - "Hyung? Jinjja? (really) ... (//⓪/w/⓪//)
-Nix: - "Of course but if you're not comfortable with that then you can just call me Phoenix or Nix."
-San Woo-Young: - (o_ _)o - "I'll call you Hyung then." He said with a bashful smile and a bow.
(A/N: He's too precious (*^^*)♡)
-Beyol Joon: - "Wow, Hyung I am almost hurt and jealous that you are letting someone else call you Hyung, almost. If anyone deserves to call you Hyung besides me, it is Woo-Young." (⁎⁍̴̛ᴗ⁍̴̛⁎) He said as wrapped an arm around Woo-Youngs neck in an ambiguous way.
-San Woo-Young: - "..." Lost in his own fantasy right now, and enjoying every second of the skinship with Joon and has his head down to hide the smile he can't hold back. (๑ᵕ◡ᵕ)(ˆ◡ˆc)
-Nix: - "So Woo-Young, if you don't have any plans for the night, would you like to come home with us for dinner and possibly even sleep over? Joon-ah and I have separate rooms now. So, it won't be crowded with just the two of you. I know the rest of the family would love to have you too."
-San Woo-Young: - "Umm, well I am not sure if that..."
-Beyol Joon: - cut San Woo-Young off - "Hyung is right, Woo-Young. You should come over. I would love to finally be able to introduce you to everyone. So how about it will you come home with me? Yea or Nea?"
-San Woo-Young: - voice cracked and clears throat - Ya... Yeah, I'll go home with you Joon..."
{Thinks about all of the double entendre going on in this conversation ... (＾་།＾) ... }
(๑╹ڡ╹๑) ... "In fact, I would like that very much."
-Beyol Joon: - (๑☉﹃ ☉๑) - "Good deal, I'd like that a lot too. I am famished, and I can't wait to eat until my heart's content."
-San Woo-Young: "I am right there with you Joon. I am looking forward to desert the most, but supper will be amazing too. I have had the pleasure of eating the homemade dosirak you always bring for lunch. Wish I could eat it every day!"
-Beyol Joon: - (•ิ_•ิ)? - "What are you talking about Woo-Young> You share my lunch with me at school every day?"
(´ж｀;) - ... ᵒʰ(⑉・̆⌓・̆⑉)ɴᴏ - (Internally panicking, as he realizes he said that in front of Nix. What will he say or do?)
-Nix: - (pretends that went right over his head to save Joo-ah some dignity, he won't call him out on it in front of Woo-Young, not yet anyways)
"Well thank you Woo-Young! I am happy to hear you like my cooking so much! I am the one who typically makes Joon-ah's dosirak everyday but on the occasion that I can't it is either Eomma or Nuna who makes it."
-Beyol Joon: - {{ (>_<) }} - (flustered & just wants to quickly change the subject before Nix says something or has the time to realize what he said) -
"Great then, what are we waiting for let's head out, I wasn't joking I really am starving.
-Nix: - "Yeah, I bet both you and Woo-Young are starving. After all I am not even sure when or if you two have ate in a while, or at all. (He mumbled the "or at all, only WY caught it though.)
Anyways, I ordered us a black hovercar, as a celebratory gift for the both of you for doing your best and nearly swiping the bord, between just the two of you. I am so proud of you not just for winning but for giving it your best, not just today but every day you spend training, dieting, working out and the sacrifices y'all make."
٩(๑❛ᴗ❛๑)۶ ... ... * *｡٩(ˊᗜˋ*)و* *｡
-Beyol Joon: - ( ✧Д✧) YES!! - "Wow, thank you Hyung! That means a lot. You're the best and this world does not deserve you!"
-San Woo-Young: - (シ. .)シ - "Thank you Hyung. Joon is right, it does mean a lot to both of us that you recognize our endeavors and cheer us on. I will, we will continue to work hard and do our best to make you proud."
-Nix: - "Oh, Woo-Young-ah, you are seriously too precious! I just want to pinch these cheeks. And before you say anything, my little Joon-ah will always be precious and sweet little brother. So, no complaining. You have to learn to share now. What are you going to do if I ever meet my destined mate?"
'Not, likely to ever happen and even if it does, who says it will work out or that we will even like one another?'
Beyol Joon was clearly displeased but as to what exactly, Nix could only guess at. 'He will have to accept it one way or another, no matter what happens. Plus, he needs to focus more on Woo-Young.' He thought to himself. As he led the way out to the black hover cab he ordered. He was looking forward to tonight but probably not as much as Joon-ah.
***
As expected, the boys both loved their first time in a black hover cab, though the ride was over quickly since we didn't need to travel far. He was already planning to do it for them again. Perhaps, he will save it for when they go to Terra Anka PXD2422 since it will be a longer ride, or maybe even to one of the other two moons.
（*＾ワ＾*） 'Just recalling how cute and exited they were about everything about the black hover cab, once they were inside, just makes my heart feel all warm and full. I think I am going to find a lot of joy doting on these two and the rest of the Beyol's as well. I wonder if I should get a similar Hover Van Convertible for the whole family.
Hmmm... No, that would be too small, but a bus would be too large for trips where there are less than four of them going at ounce. Too bad there is not an in between size... Maybe I should just design what I am looking for and need and see if I can have it custom made? Yeah, I think I will do just that.
I can figure out who to talk to about having it possibly made later. This will be fun, very pricy but it will be worth it. I already have the money from my investments Solaris made for me, along with Joon-ah's funds for university.
Despite if he gets a full ride or not it is his to do with as he pleases. Hopefully he will be responsible with it all though. I will have a talk with him about it when I give him the red packet with the Star Credit bank card in it.
He will probably fight me on accepting it but it is already in his name and everything so there is nothing he can do but let it sit there if he doesn't want to use it. But knowing that youngin' he will feel worse leaving it untouched, so I know he will put it to good use.'
(*˘︶˘*).｡.:*<3
The whole Beyol family was ecstatic to finally meet San Woo-Young and just as he anticipated they opened him in with open arms and are fully supportive of the two if they ever choose to take their relationship to the next level. Neither of the boys realize that everyone in this family can see that Joon has a crush at least on Woo-Young and the same for Woo-Young.
They tried to hide it, but it is extremely difficult to hide things in a family as close knit as theirs. So, the boys didn't stand a chance. He is so happy that they will have more supporters and Constellations forbid, Woo-Young's family being against him and Joon being together or even worse kicking him out and/or disowning him, he will always have a family and home here. Appa and Eomma already have him calling them Appa/Dad and Eomma/Mom. Even Hyung and Nuna have him calling them familiarly as well.
Now to just talk with the both of them and see if he can't reassure them and give them a gentle push. He will start with Woo-Young while Eomma has Joon doing some chores, and he gets his shower. He headed off to do just that. He needs to tackle this as soon as he can.
He still has a lot to do to prepare for The Chef & The Celebrity before he has to go sign his contract & start filming in just 3 days. Nix was looking forward to it. He is also looking forward to meeting Choi Yongbok. He is certain they will be paired again. He has already come up with all his menu items and his teaching plans for the show.
He is all set to win this competition, and he has no doubt he can and will. If Choi Yongbok can cook no if he has even the barest knowledge, he can at least work with that... but he really is hoping that the famed Movie Emperor knows at least the basics. Just to be sure he set up four levels of lesson plans depending on the starting point for Choi Yongbok. Maybe, just maybe he will completely surprise him and be a great cook already.
'Haha, just as I am also an excellent actor already and the original was also decent at acting. I look forward to seeing Choi Yongbok's reaction when he finds out. This will definitely be fun. And thanks to Solaris we now have some safety nets set in place for when that black lotus bitch starts pulling shit. Oh, the show is going to be so much fun!'
'Speaking or rather thinking of Solaris, he has been oddly quite since before the swim meet finished. I wonder if something happened or if he is upset about anything. I'll reach out to him real quick before I leave my room. I know I shouldn't worry since Solaris is safe physically, especially with how powerful he is and will continue increase in it with each world. I just worry about his emotional and mental well-being. He is still a little one so it is also possible he was just napping again but I can't shake the feeling something is up but it doesn't feel ominous so I shouldn't worry too much. I just need to check on him and reassure myself and him, if need be, that everything will be ok.'
-Nix: - "Hey, Solaris. Is everything ok sweetie? I haven't heard you nor seen any of your "hide nor hair" of you since the swim meet. Well, I guess in your case it would be "scales nor flames/feathers."
-Solaris: - =(^ΦωΦ^)= - appears out of nowhere - "Yes Mama Nix, I am alright. I have just been busy, and you were as well. I didn't want to interrupt your time with your newest family member and the rest of your family. You just met them all today and with The Chef & The Celebrity about to begin production, you deserve all the quality time with them as you can get. I did not mean to make you worry."
(^.=.^)＞⌒彡ξミξミミゞゞヾヾヽ,
-Nix: - "Oh, okay. Well, aren't you just a big ole sweetheart! You are so thoughtful Solaris! I am so proud of you. Can you come give me some quick snuggles? They always seem to recharge me and calm my heart. I don't know what it is about have you close to me and in my arms, but it calms my mind and warms my heart. It almost feels like home... I know it doesn't make sense and I am just being silly or weird, but that's how it feels."
<3 <3 <3 (つ≧▽≦)つ⊂(・ヮ・⊂) <3 <3 <3
-Solaris: - "Of course you can! It is my favorite place to be too! Also, I don't think are being silly or weird because I think I understand how you feel."
-Nix: - snuggling Solaris to his chest and rubbing his little head that is resting on his shoulder - "Solaris... What, exactly, were you busy with?"
-Solaris: - "About that..."
