Collision

Chapter 103

"Tae, get Joon and Guk," Hoseok mumbles, exhaustion clear on his brow as he tumbles backwards so that his back hits the couch and keeps him upright. Taehyung doesn't hesitate to stand, rushing towards the bathrooms where they had disappeared.

Brushing Seokjin's shoulder, Yoongi smiles. "Congratulations, hyung. She is beautiful."

Seokjin blushes, still sweaty and exhausted from birth, but the glow was there as clutches Dal closer to his chest. "Thank you, Yoongichi. Really. For everything."

Nodding, Yoongi stands and walks over to Hoseok. The Beta looked practically dead, the adrenaline wearing off and leaving him limp. Bending down, he hauls him to his feet and lets him lean all his weight against him.

"You alright, Seokie?" he murmurs in his ear.

"Tired. Really tired," Hoseok mumbles.

Jimin slinks off with Taehyung when he returns with Jeongguk and Namjoon in tow. Namjoon was stumbling, eyes wide and body nearly vibrating as he stares in complete and total awe at Seokjin and their daughter nestled on his chest.

Seokjin smiles. "Joonie. Meet our daughter. Our Dal."

Falling to his knees in front of his mate and newborn daughter, Namjoon cups the infant's head, tears falling from his lashes as the baby yawns and makes little noises. "Hello, our special peanut. Daddy is so happy you're here."

Knowing that they are fine, Jeongguk helps Yoongi haul Hoseok to the kitchen. They settle him down on the chair, clean off the sweat, get him some water, and then inch back towards the bedroom where Taehyung and Jimin have already curled up in wolf form.

It seemed to be an unspoken rule to give the mated pair some space, so together they all stripped and shifted to wolf forms, collapsing against the other two. Taehyung cracks open an eye, chuffing in his throat as he squishes closer while Jeongguk practically falls asleep on his back.

They all fall asleep, tangles of limbs and fur on their tongues, but it was nice considering the chaos of the night.

Yoongi was, shockingly, the first to wake up. The heat from the mass of furs and wolf bodies around him made him eager to wiggle his way out and quickly shift back to human form and dress.

The sunlight was already streaming through the windows. The scent of sunlight was heavy in the air, warning that it was later in the day than it seemed, Yoongi quietly pads out of the bedroom with a fond glance towards the wolf pile in front of his bed.

Namjoon was asleep near the fireplace, his hand resting on Dal's belly and Seokjin curled up and breathing deeply on the couch. They both were still fast asleep, but Dal was awake and wiggled like a gleeful slug swaddled in her blankets.

Charmed, Yoongi bends down and carefully picks her up the way Hoseok mentioned to- support the head, cradle, and always gentle. The babe gurgles weakly, and Yoongi smiles at her as he adjusts the blankets.

"Hi, baby girl. I'm Yoongi. Don't mind my face much," he whispers to her, lifting his hand and watching as her itty bitty hand clutches at his index finger. "Nice to finally meet you, Dal-ah."

Glancing towards Seokjin and Namjoon, both still sound asleep, he looks back at Dal with his lips curled in faint amusement. "You already tired them out. Good job, bug. Come on. Let's get some breakfast together."

Dal doesn't seem too bothered. Just stares up at Yoongi with glistening amber eyes. They were shaped like Namjoon's; narrower than Seokjin's, but the crease in the corners crinkle like Seokjin's do.
