Save Your Blessings

Yoongi watched Jimin walk in the double front doors from the circle driveway where the driver dropped him off after picking him up from the high school. He has noticed that Jimin doesn't look like his usual bouncy, cheerful self lately. It must be hard on him not having his best friend around and then having Namjoon move as well. Yoongi could see how all the current events would bring the little omega down.

He is not sure why it bothered him. For the most part, Yoongi doesn't mess with younger people. Or omegas, for that matter. He finds both to be annoying and too clingy. Yoongi was not the type for cuddling. Don't get him wrong. He is the best cuddlier when he is in the proper place and mood for it. He doesn't like to show it, but he likes physical touch. He is just a little shy when showing public affection, usually not the type to make eye contact during a hug.

But seeing Jimin look so down, he fought the urge to pull the omega in his arms and embrace him. As Yoongi walked into the kitchen, he asked Jimin, who was walking past in the direction of the staircase heading to his room, "Did you have a good day at school today?"

"It was not too bad. I have a bunch of homework, though." Jimin paused to answer him, one hand on the stair rail and one foot on the bottom riser.

Yoongi grabbed two bottles of water and the bag with a few nectarines from the refrigerator and walked toward Jimin. He stopped when he got to Jimin's side, "Do you need help with it? You can work in my office if you want and ask me if you run into any trouble."

"Are you serious? I don't want to bother you if you are working." Jimin looked up at Yoongi with a shocked look on his face.

Yoongi chuckled softly and thought, 'Cute' before answering, "I can do my work while you sit in my office. You won't bother me if you need help with your homework. I could use a break every now and then, plus I already took those classes, so it will be easy for me to show you how it's done."

Jimin literally started to vibrate in place. He was so happy that he started bouncing without even thinking about it. He didn't care if Yoongi helped him with his homework or even talked to him, just being able to sit with someone else instead of in a room by himself is what mattered to him.

"Thank you. I would be happy to sit in your office with you. I promise not to pester you too much. I will be as quiet as a mouse." Jimin told Yoongi with a big smile on his face.

Yoongi chuckled under his breath as he watched Jimin happily bounce up the stairs, his energy seemingly renewed by the simple request. Jimin stopped at the door of Yoongi's office, not wanting to go into his workplace first. Yoongi walked up behind Jimin and guided him through the door with his hand on Jimin's waist. For a second, Yoongi thought he felt his hand tingle while it was touching Jimin, but he quickly removed it before he could tell.

Yoongi motioned with his hand for Jimin to sit in one of the brown leather chairs next to the fireplace. He put a bottle of water and the bag of nectarines on his desk and the other bottle of water on the table next to where Jimin sat. As Jimin got settled and pulled his binder and books out of his backpack, Yoongi quietly started a small fire. He wasn't cold himself, being an alpha, he tended to stay warm, but he knew the omega would get chilled once the sun started going down. It gets rather cool in the evenings in the mountains.
