A Helping Hand | MYG & KTH

28 ~ Polished Stones

The next day rolls around faster than I care to acknowledge, only leaving the studio to make the boys breakfast and then again later for lunch. I locked myself in the studio as soon as we'd arrived back at the house last night, and I've not said a word to anyone since. Yoongi's also not bothered to try approaching me since either though, and there's something about that that angers me.

I heave a heavy sigh when early afternoon eventually rolls around though, knowing I'd promised Namjoon a field trip of sorts today and that if I don't leave soon that I won't be able to have us back before dinner. I'm not at all looking forward to interacting with anyone, especially not the stubborn elder, but it's the role that I hold here and I can't just back out now.

I purse my lips as I finally leave the studio in hopes of finding the elder, earning the attention of everyone who's been hanging out in the living room this afternoon. Yoongi's sat on the couch with my brother, Jimin, and Hoseok and I can feel their attention on me as I walk past the living room and head for the stairs. I've not bothered to change since the show last night despite the clothes I'd brought with me to change into afterwards, not having bothered with my appearance whatsoever.

I don't dwell on that matter though, heading up to Namjoon's room before knocking lightly on the door. It's the only warning I give him before opening the door, instantly earning a glare in response.

"Get dressed. Once you're ready to go, we're heading out on that field trip I mentioned last night." I inform him before closing the door once more and heading back downstairs to wait for him. I take a seat on the one couch that isn't currently occupied at the moment, gaze locked on nothing in particular as I wait for the elder to come downstairs.

"You about to head out with Namjoon like you mentioned last night?" Hoseok asks lightly, causing me to snap my gaze in his direction. I pull a small smile on for him at this, nodding in answer.

"You really think it'll be enough to get him ready to get better?" Taehyung asks, worry in his voice as he speaks up next. I smile fuller this time as I nod, having a feeling it's exactly what Namjoon will need to get his collective shit together.

"Where are you taking him?" Jimin pipes up, seeming to want to join the conversation as well. I just shake my head lightly at this though, not willing to give more of myself away than what I have been doing.

"Unfortunately, Jiminie, that's not something you need to know." I counter gently, watching as he pouts at this. I catch sight of Yoongi pursing his lips at this, looking like he has something to say but not feeling confident enough to do so.

"Yoongi? You look like you want to say something as well. You're free to join in conversation as well." I suggest, withholding a sigh. I don't have much an interest in hearing anything he has to say at the moment, and the look he gives me says he knows that fact. However, nobody else had witnessed what happened in the hallway last night, nobody else knows that anything has happened at all, and I'm not about to act like something did either.

"Can I tag along?"

His voice is hardly a whisper, biting his lip carefully as he glances in my direction, not seeming anymore confident now than he had before. I hum in thought at the proposition, not overly thrilled with the idea after his behavior last night.

"Are you sure you want to bear witness to that? Where I'm taking Namjoon, I'm taking him to help him get the memo of how damaging his alcoholism truly is. It won't be something fun, like tagging along to a performance." I prod, curious as to how he'll respond to this. He purses his lips at what I'm getting at though, taking a deep breath before he's nodding, appearing just a little more confident in himself than before.
