"Beomgyu, wake up."
"Mm.. huh?" Beomgyu rubbed his eyes as he slowly gained consciousness.
"The guard said you needed to wake up for a coronation?" He widened his eyes.
"Oh my gosh, Taehyun! We need to get you home before people crowd my room!" Beomgyu exclaimed, jolting up from his bed- pile of stuffed animals.
"Mhm. Don't worry about that, Beom. I'll just stay in here." Taehyun said, looking around the closet of Beomgyu's happy place.
"Ah.. right.. they probably won't come in here." Beomgyu scratched his ear awkwardly.
"You better get going before those 'people' crowd your room, hm?"
"Right!" Beomgyu quickly left his closet and suddenly someone decided to knock on his door. "Who is it?" He asked.
"It's us." Soobin said from outside. Beomgyu raised a brow.
"Us, who?" He questioned, taking a peak as he opened his door just ajar.
"Me and Yeonjun." Soobin said, gesturing towards his knight and shining armor, the young guard.
"Oh! Come in!" Beomgyu exclaimed, opening his door wider and letting the two join him inside his room.
"Mkay. Beomie, it's almost the time. You know what to wear, right?" Soobin asked. Beomgyu shrugged his shoulders. He sighed, "Junnie, can you find the uniform for Beomie to wear?"
Yeonjun nodded. "Come on, Beomie!" He then turned towards the closet. The wrong closet.
"Wait- the closet's this one- oh boy." Beomgyu mumbled. Yeonjun paused for a moment before turning around.
"Why on earth do you have so many plushies?" He asked, a look of surprise on his face.
"Uhh- ehe-"
"I gave him those." Soobin stated. "It's for when he feels sad and lonely, you know? Since I can't always be there to cheer him up."
"Ohh, makes sense." Yeonjun then turned to the other closet in the room, Beomgyu's correct closet.
Beomgyu sighed in relief, knowing that Yeonjun didn't find the small boy under that pile of stuffed animals.
"Come on Soobin, Beomgyu. I need to dress you guys up for the coronation." Yeonjun said, grabbing Soobin by the arm.
"Oh, I can do it myself! But I think my brother will need help." Beomgyu said, a cheeky smile forming on his face.
"Eh-? Wha- but I thought you needed- hah??" Soobin stopped functioning. Yeonjun just chuckled and waved at Beomgyu, taking himself and Soobin to the floor below.
Right as they left, Beomgyu slammed his door shut and skipped on over to his closet of stuffed animals.
"Taehyuniee!" He called out, making Taehyun peep his head out from under all those stuffed animals.
"Are they gone?" Taehyun asked to which Beomgyu nodded. "Oh, ok! But like, are you sure you can get ready on your own?"
Beomgyu gave a little pout as he shook his head slowly like any normal human would, except any normal human would also find this cute. You don't think he's cute? Then you're not from this world.
"Do you want me to help you?" Taehyun asked again, getting closer to the other's face.
"I-If you want.. I'm not forcing you.." Beomgyu said, looking down at his feet and his hands slowly coming to his chest in a fist. He was getting a bit shy.
Taehyun smiled. "Alright, I'll help you. Let's just say, I'll be your personal body guard?"
"Body guard? But body guards don't help out with getting ready for some dumb coronation.." Beomgyu mumbles, his eyes still somewhere else but Taehyun.
"True, but it seems that Yeonjun can do that, sooo." He then turned towards Beomgyu's closet. "So, what do you have in here?"
"Oh you know.. just some trousers and tunics and stuff that prince's wear.. also there's hoodies and comfortable clothes from when I wasn't a prince." Beomgyu explained, throwing out a few of his favorite hoodies.
"They look nice. Too bad you can't wear them to a coronation." Taehyun stated, taking black pants out of one of the drawers. He then paired the pants with a white tunic with gold and dark blue lacing.
"That looks good enough-"
"Hold it." Taehyun then takes out a dark blue cloak looking cape thing. (Idfk, imagine it.)
"Is that all..?" Beomgyu asked, looking through all the clothes. Taehyun nods.
"Sorry if it isn't good enough. I'm no fashion expert." He said.
"Well.. as long as I look good in it." Beomgyu then takes the clothes he picked for him and went to his bathroom which is the size of the normal bedrooms in this world.
Once Beomgyu left, Taehyun decided to just wait on Beomgyu's bed. Without any warning whatsoever, the door busting open and in came Yeonjun.
"Hey, Gyu! I thought you actually might need help since you're so helpless- who are you?" Yeonjun questions the boy on the bed.
Taehyun just shrugs. "You can call me, Beomgyu's boyfriend." He said in a flirtatious way with a wink.
Yeonjun's eyes widen. "Really?!" He exclaimed in the most worried tone to be possible.
"Duh, no. You think Beom would actually get himself a boyfriend in the middle of a coronation?" Taehyun raised a brow, seriousness in his eyes.
"Ah.. no.. but who are you, actually?" Yeonjun asked again.
"I'm Taehyun, Beomgyu's friend. We met yesterday." He answered, lying down on his stomach with his head resting on his arms. "And you are Yeonjun? Soobin's boyfriend?"
"No, I'm just a mere guard. I can't be his boyfriend even if I wanted to.." Yeonjun said, looking down in disappointment. Taehyun saw the look of sadness in his eyes.
"You know, just because he's royalty doesn't mean he can't fall in love with a royal guard. After all, Beomie said he already has." Taehyun stated.
"A guard..? Who's the guard?" Yeonjun asked, looking up with hope in his eyes but also a glint of jealousy.
"Uh, ask Soobin yourself. I literally thought you heard Beomgyu scream who it was?"
"Did he..?"
"Ugh, whatever Mr. Oblivious."
The bathroom door then clicked open, Beomgyu coming out with the clothes, looking good as always.
"Oh, god no! Beomie! You were supposed to wear the coronation's uniform! Change out of that quickly! We only have like, ten minutes!"
"Yo- chill- I didn't know." Beomgyu held his hands up in defense. "I'll change right away, okey?"
"Good boy. Now here's the actual clothes." Yeonjun hands him the coronation's uniform from inside the closet, black pants, dark blue tunic with white lacing, and a lighter blue cloak like cape thing. He also gave him some black dress shoes.
Beomgyu then left again for the bathroom.
"You know, I chose him those clothes.." Taehyun mumbled, frowning a bit.
"How old are you, Taehyun?" Yeonjun asked, changing the subject.
"Sixteen."
"You're quite young.. ok I believe you won't be a threat to Beomie."
"You thought I was a threat?" Taehyun frowned further.
"Uh, duh? What would you think if someone you don't know was randomly hanging around in the person you're supposed to protect's room." Yeonjun questions, Taehyun just shrugs.
Once again, Beomgyu has finished changing. "Ok, I'm ready. Should we go now?"
"Nah, we still have an hour." Yeonjun stated.
"You said ten minutes earlier!!" Beomgyu and Taehyun yelled at the same time.
Soobin then entered. "What's up? We having a party in here?" He asked. He was wearing what Beomgyu was wearing, except the design is different.
"Hyung, no. Just no. Ok, everyone but Taehyun, get out!" Beomgyu yelled, making both Yeonjun and Soobin scurry out the door.
"You know, you aren't Taehyun either." Taehyun teased, making Beomgyu pout.
"I'll leave then." He said, turning and going out the door. Taehyun then hurries on after him.
"I was jokingg! Come backk!" He pleaded, making grabby hands for Beomgyu to come. Of course, Beomgyu listened. He shall listen to every word Taehyun says.
Beomgyu then rests his head on the younger's shoulder and wrapped his arms around his waist. "You're warm..."
"Eh- Beom. We're still in the middle of your two rooms. There's a hallway for the stairs.
"Beomie wants to sleeeep.. but coronation.. dumb coronation...." Beomgyu whined, tugging on Taehyun's shirt that he has now worn for the past 27 hours.
"Beomie, Taehyunie wants to sleep too. But responsibilities comes first. That's what my mom always says." Taehyun said. Beomgyu finally got away from the other.
"Ok then, Beomie will make Taehyunie change and we both go to the coronation together!" Beomgyu exclaimed, now happy to be going since Taehyun is here.
He then rushed back into his closet. Coming back at lightning speed, Beomgyu hands Taehyun some of his prince clothes. Something similar to what he wore, except it was a lighter blue with different designs.
"There, now you can fit in with the coronation." Beomgyu stated, tugging Taehyun's arm for him to follow him into the bathroom. "Do you know how to wear it?" He asked.
"No, but I can try." Taehyun replied, letting the pants fall onto the floor.
"I'll wait outside." Beomgyu then leaves the bathroom and sits on his bed.
Taehyun, being a genius, changed into the clothes quickly, and correctly. "I'm done." He said, getting out of the bathroom.
"Nice! Let me go introduce you to my family now!" Beomgyu exclaimed, jumping off of his bed. He grabbed Taehyun's hand.
"I thought your dad didn't let you tell anyone?" Taehyun asked.
"Yeah.. but he'll understand. I hope-" Taehyun giggled and they both go down the 300+ steps together.
