-December 15, 2018-

     The last couple of weeks have been hectic. The guys have been nonstop busy with practice, lessons, in the studio creating and recording new songs, and celebrating SeokJin's birthday. YoonGi has been sick off and on for the last couple of weeks but the guys all assumed it was because he was overworking himself. They've gotten into a couple of arguments about it which just usually ends up in YoonGi locking himself in his studio with several missed calls and unread texts.

     SeokJin is in the kitchen making dinner while the three youngest were showering. "Has he responded to any of our texts?" SeokJin asked frustration clear in his voice. "No. He hasn't." NamJoon responded back without looking up from his phone. "Maybe one of us should go get him?" HoSeok suggested although it sounded more like a question. SeokJin cocked his brow. "Good idea. You two go get him. Don't come home without him." NamJoon looked up from his phone. "Wait. What?" "I...I didn't..." HoSeok started but was cut off by SeokJin. "Go. The food will be ready soon. If you want it to be hot when you get back you will leave now." HoSeok exhaled. NamJoon nodded. Both of them made their way to the door. "Don't come back without him." SeokJin called out as they walked out the door.

     NamJoon and HoSeok entered the building walking quickly by the receptionist and making their way up upstairs to where YoonGi's studio was. "You think he'll answer his door?" HoSeok asked, looking over at NamJoon. *Sigh* "Probably not." NamJoon replied. "Maybe text JK. He has the code to YoonGi's studio." "Wait." HoSeok said stopping in his tracks. "JK has the code to YoonGi's studio?" He questioned, making sure he heard NamJoon correctly. NamJoon sighed again. "Yes."

Hobi🌞:
You know the code to YoonGi's studio?

J2My🍪:
Yes.
Why?

Hobi🌞:
What is it?
We're outside his studio door and he isn't answering.

J2My🍪:
Sorry Hobi Baby.
I can't give it to you.
I just got out of the shower though so if you give me a few minutes I can head that way.

Hobi🌞:
Yeah.
That works I guess.

J2My🍪:
What's wrong?
I'm heading out the door.
I'll be there soon.

Hobi🌞:
Why do you have the code to his studio?
As far as I know, no one has the code but him.
He doesn't like us in there without his permission.

J2My🍪:
I watched him put it in once and memorized it.
He found out when he was overly exhausted and kept putting it in wrong so I put it in for him.
He wasn't exactly happy but he said, "As long as you don't mess with my shit and you sit quietly I won't kick your ass and change it. And I swear to god if you tell anyone you are dead."

Hobi🌞:
Haha
Omg!
That definitely sounds like him.

J2My🍪:
That's why I can't tell you.
I just got to the building.
I'm on my way up to you.

Hobi🌞:
I understand.
You don't want to break his trust and I wouldn't want you to either.
I am a little jealous though.
Lol

     JungKook walked up to NamJoon and HoSeok breathing deeply. "Sorry. I ran here so we wouldn't have to take two cars back." JungKook breathed out. "No worries." NamJoon said chuckling lightly as they entered the first door. JungKook wrapped his left arm around HoSeok's waist, HoSeok's back facing JungKook's side, NamJoon facing away, respecting the fact that they weren't allowed to know the code while JungKook quickly punched it in. NamJoon quietly entered the studio, the lights were off, YoonGi's phone was sitting on the table in front of the sofa lit up with several notifications but clearly on silent, and then he sees his boyfriend curled in on himself on the sofa, eyes closed but his face is tear stained.

     JungKook leaned into HoSeok whispering in his ear, "No reason to be jealous. We are all boyfriends and we all have different dynamics with each other." HoSeok nodded. JungKook turned HoSeok to face him, he gently caressed his face. "Are you okay Hobi?" He asked softly. "Yeah. You're right. When did you get so smart and so mature?" HoSeok asked with a gentle smile. "I'm not a kid." JungKook spoke with a pout. HoSeok lightly chuckled. "No. You definitely are not a kid." He said with a smirk before pecking his lips. "When you guys speak, I do listen even when you think I'm not. Most of the time I really do." JungKook replied with a smile.

     "Come on guys. Let's get out of here." NamJoon cut in, now standing in the door way of the studio with YoonGi in his arms. "Shit. Is he okay?" JungKook quickly questioned. Sighing NamJoon replied, "He's asleep. I didn't want to wake him. Hobi lock up and let's get him home. Hopefully he'll stay asleep for a while." "Okay." HoSeok replied as he quickly locked the studio door and they all made their way down to their vehicle.

     HoSeok was driving, JungKook was sitting in the passenger seat holding his hand, and NamJoon sat in the back with YoonGi asleep leaned on his shoulder. HoSeok looked at NamJoon and YoonGi through the rearview mirror. "Is he okay? He slept through all of our calls and texts." He questioned NamJoon. NamJoon looked up at the rearview mirror, catching HoSeok's concerned expression. "His phone was on silent, no ringtone or vibration for him to hear." NamJoon spoke softly, not wanting to wake YoonGi up. "Why was he sleeping in his studio?" JungKook quietly asked. "I mean is there something going on?" He mumbled out.

     They quickly arrived and NamJoon carried YoonGi inside, HoSeok and JungKook quietly following him. JiMin and TaeHyung could be heard talking in the living room while SeokJin could be heard in the kitchen. "Foods ready. Come help set the table." SeokJin called out to JiMin and TaeHyung, causing both of them to turn to see NamJoon carrying a sleeping YoonGi to his room. "You guys are back!" TaeHyung spoke loudly. "Is YoonGi okay?" JiMin asked, his brows furrowed. "Where'd Joon and YoonGi-ah go?" SeokJin asked as he set the food on the table. "NamJoon took YoonGi to bed." HoSeok replied. "I'm sure he was just tired." JungKook mumbled out as they all found their seats around the table, NamJoon quickly joining them.

     They all ate quietly, everyone having their own set of questions. SeokJin couldn't help but worry about how often YoonGi was locking himself in his studio. Was he even taking care of himself? Was he remembering to eat? JiMin and TaeHyung both were thinking about how they missed YoonGi being around and how its been a while since he has been intimate with them. HoSeok was worried about YoonGi possibly being depressed again. They've all seen how his moods change but he feels like maybe they are missing something this time and he doesn't want YoonGi to feel alone in the darkness. NamJoon was questioning why YoonGi has been so distant lately and why he had been crying. JungKook was thinking a lot about how him and YoonGi never really fully made up and they haven't really been together since before he accused him of cheating. He needed to fix things, but how?
