Eun-Ho Joong Eun-Ho was taken aback by the sudden shouting, shock holding his tongue for him. His eyes widened with each sentence, his heart nearly stopping when Balthazar let loose that he'd seen him crying over Fredrich. He knew he wasn't being that discreet, but he'd cleaned up his face, and he was sure that Bal had stayed int he living room! And then, the confession hit him. He winced at being reminded that Fredrich hated him, but being told that Balthazar liked him? Any person would instantly do something about it, would sweep the kid up in their arms. However, being an idiot, Eun-Ho chose to go with what he believed to be the more appropriate approach, pushing down the toy and setting his hands to cup the boy's cheeks, thumbs wiping away the tears. " I care about you, Bal. Why would I keep you with me if I didn't?" He exhaled as he looked down, chewing the inside of his cheek for a second before speaking once again, but quietly. " I want you to stay. I like having you here. Probably a lot more than I should. Haneul told me that I shouldn't indulge you, whatever that means, but I can't help myself. I just want... I just want you... to be safe from me." His thoughts raced, conscience beating at him and screaming at his wildly thumping heart, and Eun-Ho's poor head was throbbing at it all. He somehow managed to come to a conclusion before shutting down his reason. Bal must've found out about what he and Haneul had talked about! " I understand if you don't wanna be here anymore. Honestly, I don't blame you. I've been such a terrible byeontae, almost kissing you while you sleep, having to have Haneul talk me out of trying something with you. I know, you're technically an adult, but you still have the mind of a child, and I must seem awful to you. So just... Let me do something this once, and then you can go." Taking the frog into his hands, he pried it from Balthazar's fingers and set it beside the boy on the couch, laying it on its front. The Korean set on hand on the king's cheek, the other taking his hand and tugging him gently closer, his green eyes closing as his lips took the boy king's, fireworks exploding in his mind. It was only a few seconds long, but soon enough, Eun-Ho pulled away, eyes opening slowly and gazing in fear at the boy. This was the end. This was when he was going to be forced out of Balthazar's life for good. He only wished it was happening while he was drunk, so it wouldn't hurt as much.

 King Balthazar________________________________________________Feeling the toy being pushed away and the gentle touches against his face, Bal couldn't help but open his eyes to look at the star. He sniffled as he was spoken to so gently. His mind was a wreck, as well. There was some hope and excitement that burned inside him, but it was dowsed quickly by pessimism and the depressing fact that he'd have to leave soon. His thoughts came to a halt when Eun-Ho began moving again. The small king caught his breath as his frog was taken from him. " No-!" He tried to reach for it, his comforting toy, but Eun-Ho grabbed his hand and moved him towards him. His eyes widened and his breath was cut short as their lips connected. His cheeks burned with a blush he never thought he'd actually have. His entire body tingled, from his face to his feet, he felt like butterflies were swarming his insides. Small hands moved towards Eun-Ho and clung to his shirt as he returned the kiss. His eyes closed and he dedicated each and every second of this to his memory. Both of their eyes were closed, so none could witness the glowing aura around the boy. ________________________________________________

 King Balthazar________________________________________________True love's first kiss will break the curse. Of course, it was so simple. Seated on the couch was someone completely different from the little boy. He shared the small king's characteristics, both having the same green shade of hair, but the one and huge difference between them was that Bal was fourteen (or appeared that way) and this man... he looked as though he were in his thirties. Of course, the kind glint in his eyes said otherwise. The mysterious man sat in the same spot as Bal. He was the one cupping Eun-Ho's cheeks this time. His eyes opened - green like Bal's - and stared into the Korean's. Slowly, a smile appeared on his handsome face. " I knew it." he said. His voice was low; a smooth baritone. It commanded authority yet held enough gentleness in it to not intimidate its listeners. " I knew you were special, Eun-Ho. You've broken my curse completely." he spoke softly as he gazed into the eyes he adored so much, stroking the star's cheek with the back of his hand as he did so. ________________________________________________

Eun-Ho Joong Eun-Ho was filled with such happiness when he felt the kiss returned, his arms wanting already to wind around the boy, yet too enthralled in the kiss to allow them. Pulling away left a goofy smile on his face, eyes still closed until he was touched by hands not tiny and soft. Green eyes shot open in confusion, becoming wide as saucers when he saw the handsome stranger before him. While he did take a moment to appreciate what he was in front of, he couldn't stop himself from reacting. In an act of true manliness, Eun-Ho swallowed his pride and screamed like a little girl, throwing himself to the ground and somehow scuttling under the table, which jerked and nearly toppled at his sudden movements. " Wh-who the hell are you? Why are you kissing me? Where's Bal?!" The questions came out in rapid fire, the last one joined with him jumping out from under the table and grabbing the man's forearm. " I swear, if you've done something with my Sweet Honey Baboo, I'll knock ya sideways!" Finally, the words "broken my curse" finally went through his stupidly thick skull, and Eun-Ho lowered his (in actuality, not that threatening) fist and blinked. " Wait, what do you mean, curse?" His lips pursed in confusion, not completely disliking the stroking on his cheek, but still not entirely sure what was happening. It was then he saw it. Balthazar's eyes. Was... Was this guy related to him or something? Or... Naw. No! Little Balthazar wasn't this guy! Was he? Swallowing his thoughts, the blonde raised one hand hesitantly to poke the man's chest, cheeks turning a little pink as he did. Firm, but that wasn't the point! The guy's definitely real, he thought, licking his dry lips before looking up into those familiar green eyes. " Bal?" he whispered.

Mayah Playah Do you like my profile? emotion_kirakira King Balthazar________________________________________________The man raised an amused eyebrow as the star leaped for the frail protection of the table. Well, he could understand the man's sudden fright. He was after all a little boy mere moments ago. The older man was in the middle of thinking of ways to prove who he was when Eun-Ho climbed back out to threaten him. The man replied with another amused stare. He was being threatened for harming himself. In a way, it was precious, especially the nickname he had been given. All things from Eun-Ho were precious, even death threats. When his chest was poked questioningly the man finally let loose another smile. He reached out to yet again stroke the star's cheek. " Yes." he answered. " I told you I was fifty-six, didn't I? It was because I hadn't kissed my true love that I stayed the age I was when I was cursed. Your kiss broke the last of the spell. You are my true love, Eun-Ho." ________________________________________________

Eun-Ho JoongThe blonde's jaw drooped, lips parted and left eye twitching every few seconds. His brain was definitely hurting now that he was starting to work it out. His little Bal was this huge handsome guy, who truly believed that they were meant for each other, and the fact that Bal's curse was broken made it clear that it was true. " Huh." He made that sound if only to get something out of his system, expression changing into one that was slightly more normal. " So, you're really the Frog King?" he finally asked, struggling green eyes looking into those grass green ones he knew so well. " And I'm your true love. Does that make me your queen?" Eun-Ho crinkled his nose, thinking once more. One could practically see the smoke barreling out of his ears. " Wait no, I'm a guy. I can't be a queen. What's that word they use? Croissant?" If Hanuel had been there, he'd probably hit his old friend with a large book while screaming, "CONSORT. The word is consort, you IDIOT." Awesome nerd Took me a minute to figure out where the hell the music was coming from.

Eun-Ho Joong" Oh! I completely forgot about that!" cried the blonde, springing to his feet. " Stay right there, don't move!" The star speed off into the kitchen, opening the fridge and pulling out two chilled boxes. He made sure that utensils were properly positioned, then start back to the other room, only to pause in the doorway. That morning, when he'd woken up a little early to make lunch for them, Balthazar had been a little boy with a love for frogs. Eun-Ho had made it surrounding just that. What's worse, he couldn't switch with the king! His own was just as adorable! With a hidden wince, the singer inched into the room and knelt beside the table, setting down the boxes and blushing bright red. " I-if you don't like it, I don't mind just going out for lunch," he mumbled, nervous green eyes staring at his bento. Balthazar's was frog-themed, naturally, with cherries, vegetables, frog-shaped onigiri, and some pieces of chicken. Eun-ho's, in contrast, was centered around a pretty pink octopus, some corn beef patties tossed round and somehow looking cute. That morning, he'd been so proud of his creations, but now? Now he was so embarrassed! Adult Bal was probably going to think they were so childish!

King Balthazar________________________________________________Balthazar blinked slowly as Eun-Ho approached him, curious as to why he wore such a flustered expression. He got his answer quicker than he expected. Looking down at the bento box handed to him, the king blinked at the childish sight. Frog onigiri that very much reminded him of his old toy, and it was also surrounded by nutritious snacks. The elder male stared at it for a long time, his face a void of emotion. Then, suddenly, he let out a hearty laugh. " This is remarkable, Eun-Ho!" he praised. " It's so well put together! You must have spent quite a deal of time on it. Thank you." Nodding his approval at the celebrity, Balthazar looked back at the box and plucked a cherry from inside. He popped it into his mouth and beamed at the sweetness. " I love cherries." he commented. "Almost as much as I love Eun-Ho." He said it so casually, not a single bit embarrassed about it. The word flowed flawlessly from his tongue now that he knew the love was destined and true. ________________________________________________

Eun-Ho JoongThe blonde's confidence was dealt a cruel blow by the laugh, his face landing in his hands as he mentally attacked himself. He was so stupid! Frogs? Really? No one liked that kind of cute crap! They should've just gone out to eat instead of this. It was so incredibly embarrassing! However, he froze in his attack when he heard the praise directed at him. Sitting upright, shocked green eyes stayed on the king, a blush appearing once more on his cheeks as Balthazar ate and cheered. " I-it really d-didn't take too long," he gushed, words mushing into each other as he attempted to collect his thoughts and keep himself from beaming at the praise. " A-and you're welcome, B-Bal. Oh wait!" He raised a finger in question. " Do I still get to call you Bal? Or do I have to call yo- Oh." He was stunned back into frozen silence by the easy confession, his blush increasing until his entire face was red, his mouth a tiny squiggle.

King Balthazar________________________________________________" Actually, I would prefer you addressing me as King Balthazar. Your Majesty or My Liege will also do." he replied with a straight face directed to the finger of his that had cherry juice on it. Green eyes flickered to Eun-Ho, and at that moment he lost the ability to feign sternness. " I'm kidding. Bal is fine. Call me whatever you want. I believe you called me Sweet Honey Baboo earlier when you threatened to attack me." he mused then put his finger into his mouth to taste the cherry again. He glanced around innocently then looked back at the Korean after a while, taking note of his deep blush and surprised look. " Hmm? What's wrong?" he asked, pulling his finger out of his mouth. He glanced at his finger then frowned slightly. " Oh. Er, my apologies. I... like cherries a lot, as I said earlier." he said with a deeply guilty look on his face. Licking his finger. How un-kingly. It was almost embarrassing for someone as famous as Eun-Ho, that was why he looked so humiliated, the king reasoned. ________________________________________________

Eun-Ho JoongEun-Ho was completely frozen in his current state, eyes staring at the king and face so red that he looked like a tomato. When Balthazar finally noticed his expression and reacted, alarms sounded off in the blonde's head, and a familiar condescending voice told him to explain himself before things actually became difficult. He frowned at Haneul's voice, unsure of how he'd gotten into his mind, but already annoyed. Shaking his head in determination, he finally got the voice out and nervously reached out to set a hand on the frog king's upper arm. " I-it's not th-that," he stammered, already wanting to hit himself for sounding so nervous. Clearing his throat, he continued. " It's just that, well, I've never been in love before. I'm scared I'll..." He trailed off, looking away with embarrassed tears coming to his eyes and pulling his knees up under his chin, his arms wrapping around his legs. When did he turn into such a girl?! " I'm just scared I'll screw it up already. I'm not smart like Haneul, or cute like Ellery, or confidant like Sang-Min, or moody and angsty in a sexy way like Bae. I can't really cook or clean, I don't understand politics or geometry. Hell, I'm so bad at geometry, I'm surprised I know where South Korea is! And my English is still bad, even though I've been taking lessons for years." The tears started to fall, despite his best efforts to remain manly. Great. What a perfect continuation for a crappy day.

King Balthazar________________________________________________Balthazar froze when he witnessed the love of his life break down before him. How awful of a man must he have been to make the most important person in his life cry like this? His expression softening considerably, the king got off the couch and crouched down in front of the pop star. " Don't ever talk like that." he said. His hands gingerly took Eun-Ho's forearms and pried those delicate hands from that beautiful face. One hand left to cup the star's cheeks, gently wiping tears away with his thumb. " Those people aren't appealing to me at all. You are, Eun-Ho. You are far kinder than they could ever be combined. You're sweet, you're generous, you're beautiful. We've only met a short time, but it has been the best time in my long life." he said, his tone clear with honesty and he gazed deeply into the eyes he fell in love with long ago. The king felt a sense of deja vu at that moment. Just a second ago Eun-Ho had to calm him from his own tears by speaking so kindly, and now it was his turn to repay the favor. " Please stop crying, Eun-Ho. Those tears aren't befitting of your beautiful face." he said. He leaned forward, eyes closing, as he sweetly pressed his lips against the others. ________________________________________________

Eun-Ho JoongEun-Ho bit his lip as he was spoken to, chest swelling with emotion as he did. This was all going so fast, almost too fast. He could feel motion sickness setting in, or was that just nerves? Oh, Bal was so sweet, caring for him like this, reassuring him that he was worthy to be a lover for the king. Wait. Waaaaaait. Lover. They were going to have sex? Well yeah, that's what lovers do, but who would top? Clearly, Eun-Ho, since he was so manly and tough (ignoring the sniffling he was doing right then). He knew he had to ask, but just as he parted his lips to speak, the star was cut off by a tender kiss, suddenly forgetting what he wanted to ask and taken in by butterflies running all through him, from his head to his toes. The singer's fingers slowly creaked to touch the man's shoulders as they kissed, his eyes closing as his lips sought to return the kiss earnestly.
