„I seriously don’t know what to do. It’s not like I can leave him to live alone,” Yoongi sighed, looking at Jimin and Hoseok. He really needed their help now. He’s always turned to them with any trouble in his life, ever since he’s known them, ever since they became co-workers, then friends and then partners. Their relationship wasn’t regular but with their work and the lives they were living, nothing was really regular.

“You know, he is almost twenty two now, he could live alone. He is not a little kid anymore,” Hoseok tried to reason with him.

“You know better than anyone that this isn’t about him being a little kid. This is because of my job. I piss off many people and they could try to get a revenge on me through Taehyung,” Yoongi glared at him: “Maybe the best option would be if I found an apartment, moved there and take Tae with me.”

“Yeah, right,” Jimin snorted: “Because no one would come after you if you moved out of the house. That is just stupid, babe.”

“We all know what the best option here is,” Hoseok looked at the two men: “Take Tae live with us.”

“Right, taking him to our base would be safe,” the oldest snorted sarcastically.

“It is our base but it is guarded and safe,” Jimin supported Hoseok’s idea: “That is the safest place for you and Tae too. If you ask Guk, I am sure he will allow it, Tae is your family and Guk respects that,”

“I just tried to keep him away from this world for so long,” Yoongi groaned: “I did what I had to mostly for him after our parents died and I’d do it all over again in a heartbeat. But I don’t want him to get involved in this crap.”

“He wouldn’t have to get involved, this is just about where he will live. He will have a room in the house, he will still go to school and finish his degree and that’s it,” Jimin shrugged.

“Yeah, right, you can’t even believe that. You know that sooner or later there will be something that will influence him and it will stress him,”

“I think you are giving him less credit than he deserves,” Hoseok looked at the other pointedly: “He is innocent and nice but he is not made of sugar. He knows what you are doing so it’s not like you’d be leading him to the house in complete darkness.”

“I just don’t want anything to happen to him,” Yoongi rubbed his palms over his face in exhaustion: “And I am not happy about the idea of him being around the others either. You know how some of them are and Tae is young, handsome and naïve.”

“I think you’d be surprised, I´ve heard quite lots of stories about his college years,” Jimin chuckled. He and Taehyung became quite close over the years. He was only two years older than Taehyung and Yoongi sometimes took him and Hoseok to his grandma’s house where Taehyung lived before she died few days ago.

“You know you won’t really have another option, babe,” Hoseok patted Yoongi’s leg gently.

“I know, I’ll talk to Guk,” Yoongi sighed in resignation.

“So you’re asking if your brother could live here?” Jungkook looked at Yoongi from where he was sitting behind his large desk.

“Yeah, just live, not join the gang,” Yoongi nodded: “You know our situation, I told you everything when I joined more than ten years ago. Our grandma died recently and I don’t wanna leave him without supervision since someone would want to hurt him because of me.”

Jungkook leaned back in the chair, considering the request. He really didn’t like the idea of some kid living here, things could be too complicated.

“I don’t think there should be a problem with that,” Namjoon looked at Jungkook. He was standing next to the desk with Seokjin.
