"Jin hyung is in the parking lot."

Jungkook stared at the text message Yoongi hyung had sent him a couple minutes ago. 

There was nothing suspicious about it.    

Still, he couldn't help but question Jin hyung's actions. Why was he out alone in the parking lot, at this late hour? He was pregnant with an ever-changing body and right now, in a mental state that worried Jungkook.

Did he go out for a walk or-

Before Jungkook could think on it further, another message notification popped up on his mobile screen.

"I'm in Joonie's room."

Jungkook's hurried footsteps came to a standstill. Joonie's room - Jungkook blinked back tears, as he read those words.

Jin hyung was in the room, where his brother's body had been kept. In his hyung's mind, it was still 'Joonie's room' and not the room of the recently deceased husband.

"Dammit!" Jungkook closed his eyes, and pushed back at the sobs trying to crawl up his throat.

His hyung needed a strong leader beside him right now.

He needed the pack leader, Jeon Jungkook, and not a grieving family member. 

Jungkook took a deep breathe, hoping and praying that he wouldn't breakdown in front of his hyung, and made his way back into the building.

"Jin hyung came back. He's in the room, waiting for me."  Jungkook typed out and clicked 'sent'.

Yoongi's reply was instant. "Do you want me there?"

Jungkook's thumb hovered over the letters, wanting to type in 'Yes', but also not, because Yoongi hyung couldn't help him in this situation. 

His beta had done everything in his power, he had done evrything Jungkook had asked of him, and never questioned his orders. 

If Jungkook wanted to, he could beg for Yoongi's assistance again, and hid behind him, as his hyung took care of Jin and the whirlwind of emotions surrounding his brother-in-law.

But-

Jin hyung wanted him and not Yoongi right now. His brother-in-law, his hyung needed Jungkook's words of consolation and not Yoongi's.

Right now, it was Jungkook's support that Jin was seeking, and if he sent in Yoongi instead of going to the room himself, it would put a strain on their relationship. It would make Jin believe that Jungkook didn't care about the omega enough to lend his shoulder for Jin to cry on, to stay by his side, and become Jin's crunch, his emotional support. If Jin hyung got this thought in his head, even for a brief second, then he would start putting distance between him and Jungkook. 

Jungkook didn't want that. 

He couldn't allow Jin hyung to drift away from him, not right now, when they both needed each other's support the most.

"No."  Jungkook typed out the word and sent the message to Yoongi.

He was going to be brave, and face Jin hyung by himself, Jungkook thought, as he stood in front of the door leading into Jeon Namjoon's room.

"Hyung-"

No one answered his call. 

Jungkook raised his hand, knocked on the door, and called out again. "Jin hyung?"
