Jimin looked at his phone screen with squinted and dry eyes, he has been watching videos on his phone continuously for past hour to cure his boredom. But there was still no sign of sleep in his eyes; it's still too early for him to fall asleep.

He has already put Yoonjun to sleep in the other room at sharp 9 o'clock one hour before his bed time. So, Yoongi would have nothing to complain about.

Earlier while having dinner, he was actually surprised by the amount of food Yoonjun ate, his cat used to eat more than that. But he couldn't just force the child to eat more so he just let him be.

Once they were done with dinner, Jimin quickly brought Yoonjun up. Being hesitant to leave his father and Yoonjun alone.

Jimin stopped his video when he suddenly heard some weird noises outside his room. He tried his best to ignore the faint noise, discarding them as nothing but his auditory hallucinations caused by the lack of sleep.

'It's nothing', he tries to soothe himself once again. But the noise only came more closer with passing seconds.

He looks at the time, it's 11. Ghosts aren't supposed to come this early, are they ? 
He covered himself with blanket even more. Even though he's in his late twenties one thing that he's absolutely petrified of are ghosts.

The sound stopped and Jimin finally relaxed, peeking his head out from the blanket. But then out of nowhere there was a knock on his door and it was enough to make him roll out of his bed.

" Who's there ?"
He asks in his shaky voice, walking slowly towards the door.

" Dad? Samchun ?"
He asks but there was no reply.
" Taehyung? "
Heck, Taehyung's not even there, but Jimin still hopes that it's just his best friend who's here to surprise him, rather than a ghost.

He opened the door with trembling hands. Lightly peeking through his close eyes to see there was no one in front of him, it scared him even more. Then suddenly something touched his leg and he jumped back in shock and fall to the floor.

" Jiminie."
The sleepy voice scared Jimin for a second before he finally saw the tiny figure come into light.

" Wa- you - why are you here at this hour? "
He manages to get up back on his feet, rubbing his hand over his elbow where he hurted himself from the fall.

" Junie can't sleep alone."
Yoonjun rubs his eyes along with letting out cute yawns. It's clear that he's immensely sleepy but just can't fall asleep. He is already hour past his bed time and Jimin's sure Yoongi wouldn't like that.

" So, what do you want me to do? "
Jimin came closer to him.
Yoonjun saw this as opportunity and used one of his hand to grip Jimin's silk pajamas. With all hia might he dragged Jimin towards his bed.

" Sleep with Junie."
He pointed towards Jimin's bed.

" I like sleeping alone."
Jimin says, annoyed at the suggestion, there's no way he'll let the boy sleep with him. He just don't like having any other person in his bed, even if it's a child.

But he shouldn't have underestimated the power Yoonjun had on him, just a simple puppy eyed look accompanied by glossy eyes from him and Jimin already finds himself giving in.

" Fine. Just stay on the other side of the bed, don't come close to me."

Yoonjun smiled once he got the confirmation. He actually tried hard to sleep in that room, but he wasn't able to. The room being that big didn't help him even a bit. He left alone and scared.

He actually waited quite a lot time before finally making the decision to come to Jimin's room, since his father has specifically asked him not to trouble Jimin.

" Jiminie..."
The boy chirps happily once he felt another presence next to him. He's so used to sleep next to his father that he just can't fall asleep when alone.

" What? "
Jimin grunts, he clearly doesn't like having another presence. A polar opposite of Yoonjun.
" Good night."
The boy greets before he finally closed his heavy eyelids with a smile on his face.

" Night."
Jimin replies after quite some time but yoonjun was already asleep by then.

Jimin has expected the boy to be a hindrance in his sleep, but unexpectedly Yoonjun's soft snore lulled him to sleep instantly too. He found himself drifting to dreamland with Yoonjun's light breaths.

-

Since Yoonjun was accustomed to cuddle Yoongi in his sleep he unintentionally did the same with Jimin.

Jimin hated the extra weight on his body so he tried to keep the boy away everytime, but it didn't work so in the end he just had to bear with Yoonjun sticking to his side like a koala.

Jimin's precious sleep was disturbed by a phone call. He uttered some curse words before picking up the damn phone.

He had told Taehyung several times not to disturb his sleep, but the alpha doesn't seem to understand and keeps annoying him by calling at ungodly hours.

" What? "
He says in a grumpy tone. His usual high pitched voice coming out deep and husky. The other side stayed silent for some time before the calm voice of the alpha is heard.

" Good morning."
" Huh? " Jimin finally looked at his blinding phone to see it was Yoongi and not Taehyung. He felt heat rush to his cheeks.

" Why are'ya callin so early? "
He turned to the other side to see Yoonjun curled next to his body. His hand going half way to touch him, but then he stopped himself for some reason.

" It's not early, it's already 8 and Yoonjun has to be at school by 9."
Yoongi sounded worried on hearing Jimin's sleepy voice; now he's sure that both of them are still in bed.

" Shit."
Jimin says as realization hit him and he hung up the call. He instantly jumped out of his bed. The sudden commotion making Yoonjun stir up from his sleep too.

" Too noisy, Junie wanna sleep."
The boy whines before he went to wrap himself inside the blanket like a burrito.

" It's not time to sleep! You're gonna be late. Get up now."
Jimin goes to take the blanket off him, but somehow Yoonjun overpowered him. His will to sleep is much stronger.

" No! " He sternly replied before going inside the blanket once again.

" Yah! I told you to get up."
If one thing Jimin absolutely hate is to be late and he doesn't want Yoonjun to be late because of him.

" I'ont want to."
The boy put his hand on his ears to silence Jimin's shout.

Since he didn't get up after so many warnings, Jimin was forced to pick him up in his sleeping state.

" Wanna sleep more!"
He screamed, kicking his feet in the air to revolt but Jimin wasn't in the mood to play. There was a fire burning in his eyes.

" Brush your teeth I'll be right back."
He put him down in front of the sink handing him a new toothbrush and even squeezing out toothpaste on it for him.

After that he ran to the guest room where Yoonjun's clothes are he brought back the uniform and a towel that the servants has already placed for him beforehand.

Yoonjun was still half asleep, so Jimin had to help him to brush his teeth. Once done with that he put the boy in the bath tub. He knew it'd take Yoonjun a lot of time to bath by himself so Jimin decided to do it by himself.

Even though he's not an expert in this field, he still managed to bath Yoonjun in time, neatly dressing him in his uniform. Once done he ran downstairs with the boy in his arms and only stopped once they were in the dining room.

Yoonjun still in daze, start to chew absentmindly on his toast. Jimin patiently waited for him to finish his breakfast so he could take him from there.

Just as he ate his last bite, Jimin picked him up once again and ran outside. Ignoring the calls from the servants who was asking him to have his breakfast too. For now, his only goal was to make Yoonjun reach his school in time.
