Yoongi hummed to himself cleaning a counter looking up when the doorbell rang. He smiled watching Jimin walk in with a smile. "Hey Yoongs" he said sitting on a barstool waiting for Yoongi to set his stuff down and join him.

"What's up?" He asked.

"Ugh. It's a mess" he said shaking his head with a stupid smile. Yoongi smiled at the younger putting a hand on his shoulder shaking him gently "what do you mean?"

"It's a mess. Like Tae accidentally almost ripped my dick off. Jungkook finally forgave me and look at this" Jimin said turning his head and showing Yoongi a new ear piercing on his cartilage.

"That looks nice" Yoongi commented "but Tae almost ripped your dick off? That sounds like a story I want to hear" he said laughing as he leaned his head on his hand staring at Jimin.

"So you know how I tuck right? Well he was helping me untuck and just kinda ripped the tape off hard and fast" he said straight to the point "I tried to strangle him but Jin wouldn't let me"

"I don't even know how tucking works except tape so I'm just gonna imagine he gave you a free waxing" he chuckled.

Jimin shrugged "something along those lines" he giggled leaning in towards Yoongi just happy. He looked at his drink and back up at Yoongi "I wish you would come home"

"Namjoon won't let me" he said at once.

"Just quit selling that shit and come home" Jimin persisted grabbing his hand and holding it tightly. "Please?"

"I...I need the money" he said biting at his thumb "it's complicated"

"It's not. Where are you sleeping and how much money do you need and why?" Jimin asked with a whine.

"Jimin it's complicated. I've been sleeping here so I'm not out in the cold" he said running the hand Jimin wasn't holding though his hair.

"Don't you trust me?" He asked.

Yoongi sat there a moment thinking while biting his nails hissing when he cut too deep. Jimin pulled that hand away and held it too both of them on his lap. "Yoongi?"

"My mom called me" he said looking back at Jimin.

"Yeah?" He asked softly "how was it?" He asked genuinely happy that he saw his mother but kept a gentle smile on his face.

"My little sister. My mom needs help with money to help my little sister through high school. She said she would ignore my" he scrunched up his face "faults" he let out a breath "and said if I helped I could see my family this Christmas" he looked at Jimin for understanding.

The younger smiled and rubbed his back in soothing circles. "And what do you think about it?" He asked.

"I think she's lying, but if I give her money at least she won't make my sister drop out of school to help pay bills" he said looking at Jimin with sad eyes.

Jimin pulled Yoongi into his chest rubbing his back "you're too good"

"I don't think I am" he mumbled into Jimin's shoulder.

"Let me help you. Quit selling. Keep working here and I'll split mine with you" he told Yoongi "just come home. Hobi and Jin think it's weird you're not in the room with them anymore. They won't touch your stuff but it's collecting dust"

"I couldn't ask that of you" Yoongi mumbled under his breath.

"I'm just giving to you. You never asked. I offered and you're going to take it" Jimin said firmly "now I'm gonna call Joon and tell him you're coming home ok?"
