【Chapter 43】

Author's POV~•••

It was 12:50 am when y/n reached home. She was tired and sweaty, and by tired I mean—she couldn't walk straight without wobbling. She's working from like when she left college after lunch.

She reached the door, trying to search for the spare keys, but groaned when she didn't find them. She looked at the doorbell, guilty. 'I'm sorry oppa, I'll have to wake you up.'

She pressed the button and waited, she looked at the bracelet or—the lucky charm Seokjin gave her before her first mission. She smiled slightly and the door opened, revealing Seokjin, he was well dressed, which means he wasn't sleeping.

Y/N ignored that point and stumbled into his embrace, too tired to stand anymore. Seokjin quickly catches her, a small smile on his face. "Too tired?"

Y/N nodded, not speaking. Seokjin just smiled, picked her up, and went to the living room, closing the door with his leg. She looked up when she saw Namjoon on the couch, laying there with a pout on his lips. Her eyes widened, her brother was sulking...?

She looked up at Seokjin, shocked, who chuckled at her expression. "Hyung, stop laughing, you're supposed to be comforting me after that."

"After what?" Y/N asked curiously.

"Nothing," Namjoon replied, rolling his eyes, and turning his face away from her.

"Why nothing? She should know how you overworked yourself till the point that I had to come to your office and drag you out from your damn office, just now!" Seokjin said sternly, making the male gulp again. Y/N widened her eyes and was about to speak but Seokjin shook his head.

"And you had the guts to argue even after that. You skipped three meals, Kim Namjoon! You ignored my four or-five warnings and I clearly told you yesterday morning to not take my last warning lightly." Seokjin almost growled furiously and y/n gulped, hiding her face in his chest.

Namjoon, on the other hand, looked close to tears, again. Seokjin glared at him once, then looked at y/n. "Go to your room and take a shower, I'll make cup noodles."

Y/N nodded tiredly, knowing Seokjin won't let her skip a meal. She was hungry as well but she wanted to sleep too. She walked upstairs and took a quick warm shower and changed into her night suit.

"Namjoon-ah, I won't let you off the hook again if you repeat it, understand? I was lenient." Seokjin scolded, making Namjoon nod immediately, looking down, guilty.

"I'm sorry, Hyung."

Seokjin nodded, going to the kitchen to get two packets of cup noodles and hot water. He poured the hot water into cups and closed them, sitting beside his younger brother, who sat up immediately after feeling the couch dip with weight. His eyes were teary and Seokjin sighed, pulling him into a tight hug.

"I was so fucking worried, Namjoon. Please don't repeat it." He said, his voice now softer but commanding.

"I-I promise I won't, hyung. One slap and a lot of scolding worked, I can't handle anything more." Namjoon muttered with a cracked voice, blinking away the tears.

Seokjin smiled fondly, nodding his head. "It's good then."

Namjoon hugged him more tightly, hiding his face, until they heard slow footsteps. Seokjin looked at y/n with a smile and pulled away, letting the younger side hug him.

Y/N smiled back, more of a fond one because Namjoon doesn't sulk often. She sat on Seokjin's other side, hugging him from his right side. "Yah! Both of you, open the cups and eat, then we can sleep together. You both are going to make me grow forty before I even reach there."
