' Hyung' Taehyung rushed into Jin's apartment with Jimin and Hobi following behind

' Taehyung' Namjoon called.. relief spreading over him ' Thank God you came....she was crying all this while and we were really getting scared...and-'

' Where is she?' Taehyung asked frantically

' Inside..Tae-' Before he could complete Taehyung rushed past him

Jimin and Hobi looked at Namjoon...a lot of questions still in their mind after hearing Taehyung's past

' Come in guys' Namjoon said to which they both nodded

Taehyung ran in towards the living room only to stop in his tracks...his eyes wide and mouth agape for there stood Jungkook with Cyra in his arms..her head resting against his shoulder as he hummed something softly

Taehyung gulped... blinking his eyes rapidly as the scene slowly settled in him....how much he had dreamed of such a view years back...

' Taehyung' Jin's voice was heard making Jungkook turn around... looking straight at Taehyung..their eyes locking ' You came....'

' What is he doing here' Was the first thing that left Taehyung... making Jimin and Hobi who were behind him sigh

' Cyra was crying way too much.... asking to call you...' Jin explained ' And I tried but you never took the phone..and Kook came here to meet me and saw her crying...she just slept now...'

' Thanks' Taehyung said looking at Jungkook who nodded ' I'll take her back now'

Taehyung walked towards Jungkook extending his hand as Jungkook tried to hand over the little girl when her fingers clutching onto his shirt tightened... refusing to leave him even in sleep

' Let her sleep for a bit more' Jungkook whispered

Taehyung looked at him conflicted..he could see the genuine care for Cyra in Jungkook's eyes..but he can't risk anything now

' Taehyung..stay the night' Namjoon voiced out ' I don't think you should go back this late.... '

' We will be fine' Taehyung deadpanned

' She was crying Tae... and she falls sick everytime she cries ' Jin's voice hardened ' Stay here... You both too... adjust somewhere here in the living room....' He said looking at Jimin and Hobi

' Take her inside' Namjoon looked at Jungkook...'I'll keep the necessary things in the guest room'

' I'll help' Taehyung said following him

Jungkook looked back at the girl in his arms...a loving smile on his lips as he hugged her closer... placing a small kiss on her head....

Taehyung stood at the foot of the bed...an array of memories washing over him as he stood in the very familiar room....

Jungkook walked in with Cyra still in his arms...he saw the way Taehyung was eyeing the pair of clothes Namjoon had kept for them to change into.... A small pain in his chest when he remembered how once in the same room Taehyung had cutely put forward his wish to wear Jungkook's clothes

' You can make her lay on the bed' Taehyung said seeing Jungkook still at the door way

' Yeah' Jungkook nodded walking towards the bed... laying her in the middle of it.... ' You can go freshen up and come... I'll be with her'

Taehyung nodded... picking up the clothes walking into the washroom.... hanging the clothes there when he noticed what he was actually going to wear.... His heart breaking into a million pieces when it dawned on him that it was the same hoodie that Taehyung had brought here years back asking Jin to keep it safe so that whenever he come for a sleep over Jin wouldn't have to be bothered nor would he have to ask for Jungkook's.... He still remembers the way Jungkook teased him for that saying what's the logic in that when the hoodie he gave to Jin was already Jungkook's
