His Sanctuary [Jikook]

Chapter 46 - Finale

The sun peeked over the horizon, painting the sky in hues of rose and gold. The gentle breeze carried the sweet scent of blooming flowers, and birds sang a melodious symphony welcoming the dawn. Jimin and Jungkook lay asleep in their room, cuddled into one another as if the world was coming to an end.

Suddenly, an abrupt sound of wailing coming from the other room makes Jimin jump up quickly. That's the thing about him, ever since he gave birth, he's no longer a deep sleeper anymore. He sneaks his way out of Jungkook's arms as he gets off the bed. The taller is dead asleep, and jimin understands. He had been up almost all night, being a father.

Jimin walks to the other room, and the wailing seems to get louder with each step he takes. He bends over the bed and caresses the baby softly, whispering sweet words and begging her to stop crying.

"Shhhh... go back to sleep, baby. It's still early. Shhhh ... shhhhh."

The baby seems to be calmed down by those soft whispers. She closes her eyes, allowing sleep to take over her. Jimin sighs and tiptoes back out, but a loud wail stops him, yet again. He looks on the other bed and sighs.

"Are you serious? I just put the other one to sleep."

He whispers to himself. He then goes to his other baby and tries to calm him too, but instead of calming down, he cries louder, waking his sister.

"Oh God." Jimin doesn't know what to do. Now that they're both crying, he needs help, but he doesn't want to go and call Jungkook. He was doing a good job taking care of the twins in the middle of the night, feeding them, rocking them back to sleep when they woke up.

"Shhh, babies. Stop crying. You'll wake Daddy up." Jimin says, rocking the both of them at the same time.

"Daddy's up. Who wants milk?" Jungkook's voice says, he's making a superhero entrance, two baby bottles on his hands. The twins' attention is caught by their father's voice. They both look his direction and wiggle their little legs in excitement as they see the milk in his hands. Their tiny hands play in the air, trying to reach for the milk.

Jungkook walks closer, giving Jimin the other bottle and letting him feed one baby while he feeds the other.

"Sorry, Daddy, we didn't mean to wake you." Jimin mutters with an apologetic smile.

"Jeon Jimin." The taller calls out.

"Huh?"

"Twins? Are you kidding me?"

"It's not my fault. It's your sperm, and thanks to you, it's double everything. We do two times the work, we buy two times the clothes, we wash two times the laundry. Are you fucking kidding me?" Jimin asks, sighing in exasperation.

"Are we feeding them too much? Do they have to be this big?" Jungkook asks, looking concerned.

"They're healthy, just... chubby." Jimin says, playing with his daughter's cute arm rolls.

They had the roundest and chubbiest cheeks, small and very heavy. But they were just the cutest things ever. They looked the same. Even their own parents couldn't really tell them apart at times. They had taken after Jimin quite a lot, but both of them had Jungkook's beautiful eyes.

"I can't believe they're five months old already. It seems like just yesterday when they were the tiniest humans on the planet." Jungkook mutters with a proud smile.

"I know. They just grew too fast."

"Thank you." Jungkook says, giving jimin a smile.

"You thank me every day, and like I always say, I don't see any other man who'd be perfect enough to be my husband and the father of my kids."
