Slave to a King | Jinkook

Nineteen

"Please stop!" Jin yelled, clutching onto the comforter, "I want to sleep, please."

Junkook grabbed the cover firmly and yanked it off Jin's body. "I told you to wake up; you've been sleeping for more than half the day."

With a pout, Jin turns on the bed, glaring at Jungkook, "I really don't like you."

"What did you say?"

Rubbing his eyes, Jin turned his back, "I said I am tired, my King, can you please let me sleep."

"Seokjin, if you do not get up this instance-"

"Fine, I am up, I am up, are you happy!" Jin yelled, sitting up on the bed while waving his hands frustratedly.

Jungkook was taken aback by his actions, along with his tone, "are you yelling at me? Have you lost your mind?"

"I don't know, and I keep telling you I am tired, and you keep waking me up. I just want to sleep peacefully without you disturbing me all the time." Jin drops back onto the bed, hugging his knees to his chest as he closes his eyes, almost drifting back to sleep.

As Jungkook stared at Jin in disbelief, he could not believe the way Jin was acting. He was disobeying him, and it was entirely unacceptable; he was not going to allow it. "I am giving you three seconds to get up from that bed, one, two-"

"I am up!" Jin sat up, getting off the bed. "Can I please go back to my room now?"

"No, you must come and eat. There is nothing you have eaten today. Apart from vomiting in my room and making a mess, then sleeping, you have done nothing today, and that's not good! Follow me."

Seeing the King turn his back, Jin rolled his eyes and wrapped his arms around himself while walking behind him. He wishes there was a way to make the King disappear magically. The only thing he wanted to do was sleep; he didn't know why, but he was extremely tired, and all he wanted to do was sleep and nothing else. Was that wrong? He didn't think it was, but certainly, the King had different thoughts and was now forcing him out of bed.

"Jihoon will be having dinner with us, so be on your best behavior."

"As you wish, my King."

Jungkook turned to face Jin, who stopped walking immediately as Jungkook faced him, "are you being sarcastic with me?"

"What do you mean by that, my King? Why would I do that?"

"You are working yourself to another punishment." Jungkook shakes his head and continues walking.

Jin follows behind him as he whispers, "I wonder who punishes you when you are bad."

"What was that?"

"I am looking forward to dinner, my King."

"What did I tell you about eating with your hands, Jihoon? Utensils are at the table for a reason; eat as if you have some sense."

Jihoon looked at his father, "I am sorry, dad."

Jin looked at Jihoon, watching as he struggled to cut into his meat, "do you want me to cut it for you?"

With a nod, Jihoon smiled, "please, and thank you."

Jin smiled at him, "you are so adorable."

He stands up and proceeds to cut up Jihoon's food into bite-size pieces, "here, it helps if you hold the fork this way, okay?"

"Okay, thank you."

When he returned to his seat, Jin noticed the King was looking at him, but he chose not to hold eye contact with him, so he continued eating. He did not realize how hungry he was until the moment he sat down to eat. As he had eaten a lot since being around the table, he had expected the King to comment, but he was surprised that nothing had been said regarding him eating a bit of everything at the table.
