Namjoon snapped his fingers, startling the youngest three in the back. "She's asleep. Try and be quiet."

"Ooo, Hyung take a selfie with her!" Jungkook poked Namjoon's cheek.

"No."

"It's the perfect opportunity and it'll make a super cute lockscreen." Jungkook persuaded with a knowing smile. "You know you want to."

Namjoon sighed, knowing he wanted to and pulled out his phone, Claudette's head on his shoulder. He leaned his head against her's, smiling gently while he held out his phone.

Yeah the flash went off and a whole string of curses flew from Namjoon's lap as he dropped his phone. Jungkook let out a laugh before Jimin could cover his mouth, Taehyung sincerking from beside him. Yoongi sighed as Hoseok turned around in his seat, a smile on his face. Claudette groaned, everyone freezing.

"Joon." She mumbled, about to lift her head.

"Go back to sleep Princess." Namjoon told her softly, pushing her head back on his shoulder gently. Yoongi leaned over and brushed a few stray pieces of her hair behind her ear, smiling all the while.

"Oooo Princess." Jungkook popped up again, his mouth free from Jimin's hand. "That's new."

"Shut up." Namjoon rolled his eyes, easily imagining Jungkook's mischievous smirk.

"Call me Prince." Jungkook sat back and hit Taehyung's chest lightly.

"No." Taehyung hit him back.

"Do it!"

"No!" Taehyung raised his voice, Jimin shushing him. "If anything you should be calling me Prince." He said much more quieter.

"Well Namjoon hyung is a dom and he's calling Claud Princess and you're a dom so why can't-"

Jimin put his hand over Jungkook's mouth again, pulling him back until he was laying on Jimin's chest. "Just... shut up."

"Careful Namjoon." Jin had his hand on Namjoon's back as the leader picked up Claudette, Jin's other hand by the car door where there was a possibility she could hit her head on.

"I've got her." Namjoon nodded, standing at his full height with her in his arms. "All those years of working out have led to this."

"If you drop her you're dead." Hoseok threatened, walking off with Yoongi without another word.

"Won't her neck hurt if it just hangs like that?" Jimin leaned his head to the side as he looked at the angle of Claudette's neck.

"Yes it does." She opened her eyes, yawning. "I'm awake."

"You scared the living shit out of me." Namjoon breathed, holding her still. "Sorry, I only have so many arms."

"No it's okay." Claudette smiled tiredly. "It's okay." Namjoon and her stared at each other for a second before Jimin cleared his throat. The two duos of daters already headed up, leaving the oldest, leader, and the official taekook third wheeler with Claudette. "You can set me down Namjoon if you want."

"I'll just carry you." Namjoon smiled and started walking to the elevator, Jimin and Jin watching with careful eyes. Claudette wrapped her arms around his neck, mumbled something about 'big, warm, fuzzy teddy bear.'

"Do you know where the rock kit is?" Claudette leaned her head back so she could see Jin past Namjoon's shoulders.

"You, Flower, are going to bed." Jin leaned forward and smiled, holding the bags with their leftovers.
