Hidden Queen

Yoongi roughly pushed the door to the kitchen open, "And what has our poor Yoongles so upset this early in the morning?"

The Omega glared at Hobi, "If you weren't our King, I'd tell you exactly where you could shove it."

"Like my rank has ever stopped you before," Hobi snorted. "But for real, what's wrong?"

"That stupid pup wants me to bring him lots of cookies and red things to help trigger Jimin's memory. He's acting like I'm his damn Omega, and I love running errands for him. He has a fucking Omega, why am I doing all of this shit?"

Tae popped up and grinned, "Jin and I will make all the cookies. Joon and Hobi can help get red things. If you want to stop being his Omega, then we have to help him get his Omega back. Besides, he's been a great Alpha for you these past several years, you owe him this at least."

Yoongi groaned, "he had to be the one fucking Alpha that wasn't a knot head."

"As an Alpha that's not a knot head and has a little brother that's not one as well, I resent that comment."

"You two don't count," Yoongi waved them off, "neither of you ever paid attention to the grumpy Omega. Kook was the first Alpha that ever approached me without the intention of getting his knot wet."

Joon frowned, "I tried talking to you on several occasions without wanting that from you."

Yoongi scrunched his face up. "What, when? I only remember you going on and on about some stupid book you were reading at the time. And you always did it when I was training; it never made sense."

Hobi and Tae snorted so loudly, "those two are fucking hopeless," Hobi grumbled.

Tae cackled, "Yoongi, that is Joon's way of making conversation, even more, when he doesn't know that person. Think about it; he still talks to you about the books he reads."

Yoongi turned to Joon, "You were trying to be friends with me?" Joon nodded his head, "Huh, I just thought you were weird with your flirting."

"Oh, he is that," Jin howled while trying to dodge the handfuls of flour his little brother was throwing at him.

"Anyway, as fun as this is. You have your orders, troops; now get to marching."

Hobi rolled his eyes. "He's the youngest one here and of the lowest ranking, and he's giving us orders."

"Yes, I am Your Majesty," Tae snarked with a massive bow. "Now go find all the red things."

"Why are you pouting?" the Alpha asked the Beta, who was pulling out all of the ingredients.

Tae sighed, "No reason. What cookies are we making?"

"We'll go with basics today; tomorrow, we'll try more fancy ones. Now spill, what's up with the pout?" Jin grabbed everything to make the cookie base. "I won't quit asking."

The Beta dropped his head down onto the table, "I want to meet Jiminie so so badly, and it's not fair that the grumpiest one out of all of us gets to talk to him every freaking day."

Jin snorted, "Well, he's an Omega, not a threat."

"I'm a Beta," Tae whined as he hopped in a circle, throwing a mini tantrum. "I know that we are going to be the bestest friends, but it won't happen unless I get to talk to him."

"Taehyung, he's not going to hide in Jungkook's room forever. Eventually, he'll come out and be back in society. Just give it time; he'll love you."

Tae looked up; tears were gathering in his brown eyes, "you really think so?"

"How could he not, Tae Tae? You are the best friend anyone could ever ask for. You'll have that little mochi wrapped around you in no time."

Tae sighed, his eyes looking all dreamy, "fairly sure he's my soulmate."

Jin snorted, "Better not let that Alpha hear that. He's a bit possessive."

"Not like that, he's my platonic soulmate." It took them a few hours to finish up the cookies, right around the time lunch was finished the other three crashed in with a massive box of the most random red shit ever. Tae walked over with a wtf face, "Where did you find a toy fire truck, and why did you think to add it? It's not like Jimin was a firefighter."

Joon blushed, avoiding looking at the younger, "A pup was playing with it, and he gave it to us."

"Hard to say no when the King is there, and the pup's mother is a palace maid," Yoongi mumbled.

"I'm going to give it back," he turned to Tae, "you said get all the red stuff. I got red stuff."

"I meant useful red things, but it's whatever. It's not like any of this will trigger anything; we need Kook's Alpha to come out and flash his red eyes."

Yoongi sighed, "It might be the blood from his parent's murder. I hope it's Kook's eyes, but I'm afraid it might be the blood. It might not be a good thing for him to remember that."

The five of them looked so sad. "Well, let's hope it's the eyes," Hobi mumbled.

"The cookies are done, and the chef packed the food."

"Thanks, Jin," Yoongi turned to look at Tae, "Hey, I can't carry all of this by myself. If Kook says it's okay, will you help me carry all this stuff to his room?"

Tae popped up, "I get to meet Jimin?"

Yoongi nodded, his phone in hand, as he texted, "Kook says it's okay; just don't overwhelm him."

The Beta clapped his hands so happily, "I'll be on my bestest behavior. I promise."

They all knew that was a lie but decided to worry about it later. Because Jimin would be exposed to Taehyung at some point, and there's just no preparing anyone for that. Yoongi carried the food tray; Tae had the box of red things under one arm and the bag of cookies in his other hand. As soon as the door was opened, Tae dumped the box of red stuff in the Alpha's arms, ran to the bed, and hopped inside the nest right in front of the Omega.

"Taehyung, you can't just enter an Omega's nest without permission. You are a beta, so you probably don't know that. But it's a huge no-no."

He started to pout, his head dropping down. "I'm sorry, Jiminie. Is it okay if I'm in your nest? I just want to be friends, that's all."

Jimin looked at Jungkook, he knew this Beta better than he did, so the Alpha would know if it was okay or not. Jungkook smiled and nodded, so Jimin reached forward, tapped his fingers on the Beta's shoulder, and smiled at him. "Oh thank Goodness, I thought I ruined our friendship before it even started. I've wanted to meet you so badly, and I was so annoyed that the grumpy Omega got to speak to you before I did. I mean, I'm clearly way better of an option because-"

"That grumpy Omega is right here, you know," Yoongi grumbled from behind the Beta.

"Jiminie, did you know how excited we were when Kook found you? Oh, here. Start trying these cookies to see if any trigger a memory; Jin and I made them, so I promise they are super yummy."

"Tae," the Alpha sighed, "he hasn't eaten lunch yet."

The Beta shrugged, "he's a grown ass man, besides he's too skinny. Let me stuff him full of sweets, please." Tae was begging, and Jungkook had never been able to resist him. He sighed and gave up, making Tae clap excitedly.

"So while Jin and I were making cookies, we sent the other three to find you red stuff. You will never believe what they got, a toy firetruck, a rose, a random ass red book, they stole a red blanket from somewhere, and an apple. Worthless, I tell you, worthless."
