"Come on Kookie, Jin's not here today so I'm in charge... we need to get there a little early." I urged Jungkook, who still hadn't let out the all morning ass-kook, bringing me my jacket and bag, smiling shyly the whole time, He definitely seemed to respond to me giving him little touches every now and then. Smiling, running my fingers through his hair, squeezing his hand from time to time. I didn't make it too obvious because I wanted to observe it in peace without him realizing what was going on. I didn't want him to feel like an experiment, after all, I was just trying to find out how I could help him, not study his behavior. He was also rather silent during the journey, looking out of the window and observing the houses and stores we passed very carefully. At a red light, I put my hand on his, which was resting on his knee, and he turned his head towards me. When he saw that I was giving him an affectionate look, he beamed at me with his cute little bunny smile, which left me in such awe that I almost didn't notice the light turn green. As I had to change gear, I pulled my hand back and drove on. If he kept being so cute, it wouldn't be good for my poor heart, which did funny things when he looked at me with bambi eyes.

Shortly afterwards we arrived at the office and I went to my office room to calm down a bit. What was it with Jungkook? He completely threw me off my game.

"Noona, I've made you some tea, I'm supposed to go and get something for everyone at the bakery, can I get you something too?" Jungkook's question startled me as I had been concentrating on my PC and hadn't heard him come in.

"A-all good, Kookie... I don't need anything." I shrugged it off, watching him frown as he left. Half an hour later, he came back, holding a plate of strawberry shortcake.

"I know you didn't want anything, but I saw these sweet strawberries and thought of you," he explained as he placed the dessert in front of me. Strawberry pie... how delicious, I could kill for that...

"Thank you, Bunny." smiling, I squeezed his hand and saw him blush, staring at me with his mouth open.

"Bunny?" he questioned my pet name.

"Yes, Bunny... you're so cute, like a little bunny... I could cuddle you all the time." I stood up and hugged him. He looked confused, but beamed and hugged me tightly before he walked out of my office humming to himself. So... he responded positively to positive affection. I decided to be as nice and sweet to him as possible to see what effect this would have.

I was distracted from my work again by the ringing of my cell phone. A glance at the screen told me it was Taehyung.

"Hey Tae... what's up?" I asked after answering the call.

"Noona... the therapist called and said he has an appointment this afternoon because someone canceled. Can you be there by 3 pm? I'll send you the address." he informed me and my heart immediately beat faster with joy.

"Sure... but tell me Tae... Jungkook cries so bitterly every night.... I don't know what else I can do." I said a little helplessly.

"Well... when it was particularly bad, I brought him into bed with me and cuddled him... when he has physical contact, he sleeps more peacefully... Maybe that will help..." he suggested. We would probably need a bigger bed if Jungkook were to sleep with us more often... But I preferred anything to seeing him cry so heartbreakingly again...
