I like my Kookie with Suga

43

I gently ran my hands over his back and felt him trying to snuggle closer and closer to me as I held him. Although I was the smaller one, I still pulled him onto my lap, where he curled up like a kitten and rested his head on my chest. His sobs continued for a while as I stroked his hair soothingly until he became quieter and quieter and I thought he had fallen asleep... but apparently he was just dozing and listening to my heartbeat, which somehow made him calmer.

"Hyung... I'm sorry... you're welcome to beat me up, I deserve it." he said at one point, causing a laugh to roll up my throat.

"Jungkookie, I'm not beating anyone up... even if my life depended on it..." I replied with a grin.

"Oh... okay... if your life depended on it, then I'll beat people up for you." he promised, which made me giggle.

"You're better suited for that with your muscles too." I agreed.

"Unless Y/N is there... then I don't stand a chance, she'll drive all the enemies away... She can pack quite a punch..." he explained with wide eyes and I saw the respect in his gaze.

"And she won't shy away from us either if we don't behave ourselves, you already know that." I warned him.

"You too? She would spank you?" he asked, shocked.

"I honestly wouldn't put it past you to find out." I said and now he grinned.

"That's understandable. But... what should I do now to make up for it?" he asked again more seriously.

"Get well, as well as you can... and stay in the best condition you can. And don't upset her too much... that's all I can say... you'll have to figure that out on your own." I explained and he nodded. I was still holding him and instead of getting up, he snuggled up to me again, which didn't bother me as now that he was no longer crying, my discomfort was slowly subsiding. He seemed to enjoy my caresses, just letting me continue to run my fingers through his hair, which felt so wonderfully soft and smooth that I couldn't stop playing with it.

"Hyung..." he started sleepily and I paused.

"Yes, baby?" I replied, to which he giggled.

"Can I sleep with you again?" his voice sounded so cute when he was tired, which made me smile.

"Sure," I agreed immediately, as I couldn't bear to see him cry again over a nightmare like he did last night.

"I don't want to disturb you, I'll keep quiet and make myself small." he promised, but Y/N, who had just come into the living room, shook her head.

"Tonight you lie between us, ok? Tomorrow morning, you'll wake up well rested, you'll be fine and then you'll make our breakfast." she explained and I raised a brow in surprise.

"Deal." he said and sat up, seemingly excited to finally get a good night's sleep.

"Then let's eat so we can go to sleep." I suggested, because I was already pretty tired.

"Oh yes, tomorrow Kookie has to stay with you, I have important appointments that I can't take him to." she informed me and Jungkook and I looked at her in equal shock.

"You're letting Dumb take care of Dumber?" I asked her, seeing Jungkook's indignant look.

"Yah, hyung...." he whined, but Y/N giggled.

"I think you guys can handle it. Besides, his therapist said that it's important for you two to get to know each other better," she said and I felt uneasy, even though I was happy too. This change of plans wasn't planned and threw me off course a little. I found it difficult not to totally reject it straight away, but I also had to work on this behavior, which is why I stayed calm and breathed deeply. I wouldn't think it was bad tomorrow, it was just my natural reaction to change that made me panic briefly now. I knew that and she knew that, the way she was looking at me now. But she didn't say anything because she knew I had to sort it out with myself, otherwise we would argue, which we both didn't want...
