the picnic table out on the dorm's balcony was packed with food. five members hurried around to gather all the things they needed for the barbeque party they planned, while yoongi worked on turning on the grill and taehyung sat at the table, paci in his mouth and worn out stuffed animal in his lap. his wide eyes followed the members around, curious about what everyone was doing.

jimin came up behind taehyung, hugging the boy from behind and pressing a kiss to his messy hair. taehyung instantly recognized his main caregiver's hug and held onto jimin's arm tightly.

"do you want to help us, taehyungie?" jimin asked. all the members agreed to let little taehyung do his own thing instead of making him help them, but jimin felt bad for not being able to entertain the boy, so he asked anyway.

taehyung nodded eagerly. "wanna help you, please." he said with a small voice.

"ah taehyungie, you're so polite." jimin smiled. he released taehyung from his hug and instead reached out his hand, so taehyung could grab it. "come on, you can be our big boy and help carry the soda bottles outside."

he hesitated for a moment, but then taehyung grabbed jimin's hand and followed the older into the kitchen. inside, the counters were filled with many different things. taehyung wondered for a minute why there was so much food, but then jimin handed him a big bottle of soda. taehyung grabbed it with both hands, holding it tightly to his chest so he wouldn't drop it and make a mess.

jimin chuckled fondly, grabbed some things to carry outside himself and then followed the carefully walking little to the balcony. taehyung had a prominent pout on his lips, all his attention went to making sure to hold the bottle carefully.

once he'd carefully placed the bottle onto the edge of the table, a deep sigh left taehyung's mouth. he was relieved he didn't drop the carbonated drink, but the pout didn't leave his face. jimin's words kept replaying through his head. you can be our big boy. taehyung didn't want to be a big boy.

the little looked up at jimin and opened his mouth to tell the older, but stopped before he could even start because jimin wasn't there. he glanced around and finally found jimin standing near the grill, talking with yoongi.

"it's okay," taehyung whispered to himself. "i can be small boy and still help." he mumbled. he took a deep breath and turned around on his heels, walking back to the kitchen. taehyung smiled at seokjin who handed him another soda bottle, whispering a small thank you and carrying it outside.

seokjin's gaze followed the little. he squinted his eyes and tried to figure out why the group's cutie looked so sad and pouty. soon taehyung was back, politely asking for another bottle.

"are you okay, taetae?" seokjin asked carefully.

taehyung frowned. he didn't want the members to worry. he was okay, really. well, he would be. taehyung nodded his head yes and forced a smile onto his lips. "i'm okay!" he tried to reassure the oldest of the group.

"i don't believe you," seokjin chuckled. "come, sit down and tell hyung, yeah? it's okay."

taehyung looked at the bar stool seokjin pointed at hesitantly. it's so high.

"help up, please?" he blushed.

"of course, c'mere." seokjin smiled. taehyung reached his arms up, giving seokjin space to place his hands in taehyung's armpits and lift the boy up onto the chair. "there you go, big boy. you're so big, huh? i almost can't carry you anymore."
