"Channie! I thought you had a schedule today!" Seungcheol exclaims, pulling Chan into a hug.

"Well, I did," Chan replies. "I was supposed to start filming my segment on YouTube, but I canceled it to be with all of you."

"You canceled that?" Joshua interjects. "Isn't that important?"

"Not as important as making sure all of my soulmates are ok and not lowkey freaking out inside." Chan sends a knowing look in Joshua's direction. "Yeah, I heard about that, hyung."

"About what?" Joshua tilts his head before a look of realization appears. "Oh. That."

"It's ok. I'm proud of you for calling Cheol hyung," Chan replies and beckons Joshua over to hug him with his other arm. "You can always call me, too, even if I'm in rehearsal."

"I don't want to burden you, baby," Joshua sighs, resting his head on Chan's shoulder.

"You could never be a burden. I'm happy to help you, no matter the time of day."

Chan doesn't get a response, but he knows Joshua heard them in the way that he sniffs softly, trying not to cry.

"Now, why don't you and Seungcheol hyung go choose your seats," Chan suggests.

"Ok."

Joshua and Seongcheol both peck Chan on the cheek before they move to one of the couches.

"When did you get so mature?" Jeonghan asks as he's the next to step up to Chan.

"I suppose I just learned to take care of all of you as you take care of me," Chan answers with a soft smile.

"Thank you for looking out for us." Jeonghan takes Chan's hand in his. "Why don't you come sit between me and Josh?"

"Sure. I just want to talk to Wonwoo hyung first."

"Alright, love."

Jeonghan lets go of Chan and goes to cuddle up to Joshua's side.

Chan seeks out Wonwoo as the rest of his soulmates arrive.

"Hi, hyung."

"Hi, Channie."

Chan grabs Wonwoo's hand and swings it between them.

"Are you doing alright?" Chan asks quietly.

"I'm fine, baby, I just needed to decompress. Vernon knows what songs help best, so he helped."

"Ok. I think when we have our own house, we'll make one of the rooms a quiet room."

"When?" Wonwoo smiles.

"Huh?"

"You said when we have our own house."

"Yes, when. There is no one else I'd rather spend my life with. We're gonna have a big house and so many pets and a cow!"

Chan takes Wonwoo's other hand and swings them both between them.

"A cow?" Wonwoo laughs softly.

"Yeah, a little, fluffy cow. Her name will be Jangmi for rose."

"You're so cute, we'll definitely get a pet cow."

"Yay!"

Wonwoo and Chan sit with their soulmates and Chan starts the movie on the projector.

When Chan gets up to get food, he's joined by Soonyoung, Seokmin, and Jihoon.

"Thank you for doing this for us, sweetheart," Soonyoung comments, taking Chan's plate and filling it for him.
