"okay, yujin," seungkwan coos as he puts his 2-year-old son on the ground in the living room. "there you go."
the members all sat around in a semi-circle in front of the young boy, either being very excited for this unexpected test or some being very bored (actually, not really. some are just dreading this entire thing).
you watch with amusement from the kitchen, drinking a glass of water as you say, "i'm calling it now. jihoon's in the top 5 of yujin's favourites."
"what?" woozi looks over at you with a raised eyebrow. "no offence, but i barely do anything."
"exactly!" soonyoung, on the other hand, was entirely offended by your prediction. "i'm always here! i'm always bringing gifts and playing with my nephew!"
"alright, yujin, you're going to run up to an uncle, okay?" seungkwan is kneeling beside his son, helping him stay standing. "doesn't matter which one. any, got it?"
"okay," the kid nods, holding his sippy cup with one hand.
seungkwan stands up, letting his son roam around the living room space freely now.
yujin hesitates for a moment, looking at all of them for a second. then, he made a run for it towards vernon, who was sitting on the sofa.
"hey, little man," vernon immediately brings yujin up to his lap. "nice to see you."
"i am 99% sure kwan's genes are at fault for that," you laugh, knowing just how much seungkwan is attached to vernon.
"okay!" soonyoung claps his hands. "that means your genes are going to come in next, which means it's going to be me because i'm your favourite!"
you raise your eyebrow, "who the hell told you that?'
round 2.
without hesitation, yujin runs straight for seungcheol, who was sitting on the arm chair
"ah, come on!" soonyoung complains.
"oh, there is no way he actually thinks you're his favourite!" jeonghan immediately shouts.
"too bad, do you have yujin in your arms? i don't think so?" seungcheol lifts the 2-year-old into the air, making him laugh and giggle. "wah, yujin, you've grown so big since the last time i carried you!"
"okay, next time it's definitely me," dino mutters.
"nope, it's going to be me," dk argues.
round 3.
before anyone could even say anything, yujin was in hoshi's arms, giggling as soonyoung lets out the loudest sob ever.
"oh my god!"
"yah, hyung, you're going to crush his lungs!" seungkwan yells.
"oh, right. my bad," soonyoung frees his nephew from his grasp. "sorry, just had to show off to all these losers behind me that i'm the next favourite-"
"hey!"
round 4.
dino basically sobs when yujin runs up to him next, muttering and blabbering on about treating yujin out for ice cream and taking him to amusement parks... or something like that.
round 5.
yujin was in dk's hold, jumping right on top of him (or... jump as much as possible for a 2-year-old). dk was spinning in delight, happy that he managed to beat out mingyu alone.
round 6 (see - this is the problem with having 13 members. it takes forever for them to get through all of this).
much to everyone's surprise, jun was chosen next. even he was surprise, but yujin was excitedly talking in toddler talk.
round 7.
by the 7th round, yujin was gaining more hesitation as the remaining members try to call on him. he stops mid-run, looking at the members that were left (jeonghan, joshua, wonwoo, woozi, minghao, mingyu)... and decided to make a run for it to woozi.
"ah, there we go," woozi smiles, taking yujin in his embrace. "about time, huh, yujin?"
the kid giggles, excitedly moving around in his arms.
round 8.
jeonghan was next, where he finally lets out a sigh of relief as he was able to beat out everyone else that was remaining.
"yujin-ah," mingyu pouts, crossing his arms. "don't forget of all the times i've had to babysit you because everybody else, including your dad, was busy. don't forget that."
round 9.
ignoring mingyu for the 9th time, yujin was in the arms of wonwoo, who runs his hands through the child's hair.
"getting tired, yujin?" wonwoo asks, his voice soft and gentle.
"hyung, stop trying to lure him to sleep" seungkwan scolds. "if he naps now, he's going to miss dinner and then he's going to throw a tantrum. so unless you want to deal with the tantrum-"
"wonwoo's just trying to make sure he doesn't run up to the rest of us," joshua has long accepted defeat, on his phone answering to his many missed messages. to be entirely honest, he doesn't come around to form a strong bond with yujin, anyways, so his expectations were very low.
round 10 (we're almost there).
with only 3 members left, yujin was especially taking his time. both minghao and joshua doesn't spend that much time with the kid in general, meanwhile mingyu was... well, mingyu was currently going through the 5 stages of grief.
"yujin-ahhh," mingyu complains, now lying down on the ground of the living room as if he's been shot in the heart five different times. "there's really only one option now."
"kwan-ah, i think you may have bad-mouted mingyu too much," vernon remarks.
"i didn't talk shit too much," seungkwan mumbles. "...oh actually..."
"yujin-ahhh," mingyu just looks... sad at this point.
for the 10th time they were doing this, yujin approaches joshua with his arms reached out. instantly, joshua takes the kid in and chuckles, glad that he wasn't entirely last out of everyone there.
"okay. what if i quit?" mingyu sits up again, a pout forming on his face. "seungkwan-ah! what did you tell him?'
round 11. two more rounds to go, and then they can all finally eat dinner.
without hesitation, yujin looks at mingyu... then goes straight for minghao, who was in the midst of talking with jun until the little kid was suddenly crashing into his legs.
"yujin-ah!" minghao's eyes widened with surprise. oh, he was entirely ready to have been last.
"hihi," the kid greets, snuggling up against the idol's leg.
"mingyu-ah, did you do something to yujin that made him hate you or something?" dino tilts his head.
"okay, he doesn't hate me!" mingyu quickly defends. "just apparently out of all these options-"
"mingyu said he would bring me candy today..." yujin finally speaks from minghao's arms, pouting over at the idol who now has his jaw dropped to the floor.
"THAT'S what made me become last in all of this?!"
