"Okay, I have to go down to help with dinner," Y/N said, patting Yoongi's hand which was tightly wrapped around her waist, as a sign to let her go. It had been a couple of hours since they had laid down in the Omega's nest and to say that they were relaxed would be an understatement. Yoongi felt content, holding his mate close to him, surrounded by her scent, laying in her safe place. He honestly felt safe himself as all his barriers seemed to crumble down. He was able to let all his worries and responsibilities slip away and just exist in this moment with Y/N, and she felt the same. Y/N felt warm and safe in Yoongi's arms, and she seriously debated staying in her nest, but also wanted to help with dinner since it had been so long since she had been able to really do anything productive, and that desire overtook her desire to stay in her nest. She went to sit up but Yoongi kept his grip firm on her waist, having her fall right back into the nest.

"No, stay here. You're warm and comfortable," he mumbled lazily, pecking her shoulder before burying his face in her neck.

"Come on Yoongi. I have to get up," the Omega whined, attempting to pry Yoongi's arm off her waist to great difficulty. Eventually, she was able to pry his arms apart long enough to slip out of his grip and stand up. Yoongi, keeping his eyes closed, tiredly reached out for Y/N trying to find her.

"Y/N-ah, come back and lay down."

"Oh, come one you lazy Alpha," the Omega said, playfully rolling her eyes, grabbing Yoongi's hand, attempting to pull him up. Eventually, after many failed attempts, nearly falling back into the nest herself, Yoongi finally got up. With Yoongi finally up, Y/N turned around, keeping her hand in Yoongi's, leading him out of the room as he followed along lazily.

"I'm not lazy," Yoongi grumbled as he was led downstairs, practically dragging his feet.

"Of course you aren't," Y/N replied placatingly. Yoongi couldn't help the small smile that made its way onto his lips. Y/N led the sleepy Alpha into the kitchen where Eunji and Seokjin were already starting the preparations for dinner. Having him sit on one of the stools, she ties her hair back before going around the island to where Eunji and Seokjin were cooking.

"Good to have you back," Eunji teased, bumping her hip with Y/N's when she came up beside them to wash her hands.

"Good to be back," she beamed. The trio began cooking dinner as a pleasant aroma filled the kitchen, becoming more fragrant the longer they cooked. Yoongi watched from the counter, resting his head on his hand, his gaze never leaving Y/N, loving how alive she looked being able to the hobbies she'd come to love so much. Dinner was quick and simple tonight, so it wasn't long till Y/N went around the island, placing table mats down before setting down the plates and utensils.

Once dinner was finished Y/N shot up, offering to do the dishes. She found she enjoyed working with her hands and missed being able to do much when she was recovering. So, a few minutes later, there she stood, in front of the sink, scrubbing at all the dirty plates, cups, and utensils. She was humming lightly to no song in particular when a familiar pair of strong arms wrapped around her waist. She immediately knew who it was as she was enveloped in Yoongi's familiar, comforting scent. His chest was pressed closely against her back as his breath brushed against the top of her head. Yoongi leaned down slightly to rest his chin on the top of her head. "If you're just going to stand there you can help you know," Y/N quipped, as she finished drying one of the plates. Yoongi playfully rolled his eyes before pulling away from the girl to stand beside her, rolling up his sleeves as he did so, helping to dry the dishes while she washed them.

With the competition just days away, Yoongi's days became never-ending in an effort to make sure this event would go off without a hitch. There were safety measures to be looked over, permits to approve, decorations to finalize, the logistics of the matches to look over. All of this was stuff he'd looked over countless times already, but he found himself unable to be happy with the product. So much could go wrong with large events like these, and no matter how many he'd successfully put together, his perfectionist tendencies got the best of him. Without meaning to the alpha found himself pulling a lot of late nights, without meaning to. "Yoongi?" Y/N walked into her mate's office, wearing her pajamas. At Y/N's voice, Yoongi flinched out of what felt like a trance, looking up to see Y/N leaning against his office door, a small frown on her face.

"Hmm, what is it Y/N-ah? Is everything okay?"

"I'm fine Yoonie, I just wanted to check on you to see if you're okay. It's late and you haven't come to bed yet." Yoongi rubbed at his eyes, finally feeling how dry they'd become and how tired he was.

"What time is it?" Yoongi glanced out his window only to be met with a dark sky. "Shit, I must've lost track of time. Just let me clean up and I'll come to bed, I'll join you in a bit." Instead of heading back to Yoongi's room though, Y/N walked over to Yoongi's desk to help him clean up.

"Is everything alright? You've been staying pretty late the past couple of days."

"Nothing you need to worry about, just some last-minute things that needed to be dealt with." The couple finished tidying up Yoongi's desk and Yoongi began leading Y/N back towards his bedroom. "I'm sorry I got so caught up Jagi, let's head to bed, it's been too long since I've held you." Y/N nodded, giggling as Yoongi lifted her before laying her down in bed, laying down beside her once he'd changed his clothes.
