"A dozen chocolate chip cookies please." Yoongi said to the man behind the counter and he smiled, nodding as he packed the cookies in a box. Jimin watched intently.

Jimin put the hand on the glass container and looked at the different flavours, he took note of the flavour that Yoongi chose and tried to memorise it.

Yoongi paid the man and grabbed the box of cookies, "alright Jimin, we can go now." He said softly as he started walking to the direction of their home.

Jimin grinned and skipped along the way as they walked home, "b-blue!" He pointed to the sky when he looked up then stared at it.

Yoongi hummed and looked up as well, "yea." He smiled at Jimin who looked around the area, saying out the colours and trying to read words off the signs. Honestly, this was a great improvement. He had learned the alphabets by himself, he learnt phonics by himself as well.

Yoongi was glad that everything was going well.

"Tae! I'm home!" He shouted into the empty house, his voice echoing back and he frowned.

"T-Tae!" Jimin shouted as he ran into the house and looked into all the rooms on the first and second level. Yoongi went down the basement and saw the boy sitting in a corner of the room.

"Taehyung." Yoongi called out but he didn't move. Yoongi sighed as he walked towards Taehyung, he could see that his eyes were red from crying and he felt guilty that he wasn't around to help him.

"Taehyung I said I would cure him didn't I?" Yoongi said softly as he sat beside the boy, not knowing how to comfort him.

Taehyung didn't answer but he blinked and buried his face in his knees. "Yea." The muffled words came out of his mouth.

"Trust me." Yoongi said as he looked towards the boy and grabbed his arm, "please."

"I can't hyung, I can't." He said softly, scared of everything. He was scared that Yoongi couldn't keep his promise. He's been holding back his tears for a year. A year without Jungkook would kill him. His heart could not take it anymore.

"Taehyung." Yoongi said his name as if he was going to break anytime. He was fragile at this time and Yoongi didn't want to see his strong little brother look like this.

Yoongi wrapped an arm around Taehyung and pulled him close, Taehyung reacted to it and buried his face into Yoongi's neck. "Hyung." He whispered softly as he hugged the elder boy, "I can't do this anymore hyung."

"Yes you can." Yoongi said as he pulled him tighter, "Taehyung you are strong. You survived a year, if Jungkook recovers-"

"If! Jungkook recovers. That's not a hundred percent chance he would." Taehyung sobbed.

"Taehyung it's already a 60 percent chance he'll survive, I just need more time. A few more months, I'll change it to a hundred. I swear." Yoongi said with hardness in his voice.

"But-"

"Tae you have to trust me. I can cure Jungkook I swear. Jimin- h-he's already recovering, he can read and name colours." Yoongi smiled sadly, "Jimin is strong for you as well, he said he wanted to help you."

Taehyung sniffed and looked up, "jimin's just a victim."

"You are one too Taehyung. I know you didn't want this, everything to happen. But Jimin is capable of affection, he's capable of expressing human emotions no other zombies can. I'm saying this because Jimin will be our only hope to curing Jungkook." He said softly and ran his fingers through taehyung's hair.

"Taehyung I know you're scared, worried, heck even I'm worried about Jungkook. But you have to know that hyung is trying his best to find the cure and Jimin is doing all he can to make you happy." Yoongi said matter of factly as he made Taehyung face him.

"Hyung will find a cure alright? Trust me one more time". He said softly as he kissed Taehyung's forehead.

Taehyung nodded, "o-okay." He said and sniffed before hiding his face into yoongi's neck again.

From the stairs, the boy stood there with determination. He was going to make Taehyung happy, and do his best to recover so he could get praises from Yoongi.

A few minutes later, Taehyung fell asleep and Yoongi carried Taehyung and put him into bed at the basement. He watched Taehyung's sleeping face, his red sore skin under his eyes from the constant rubbing and he couldn't help but feel sorry for him.

He sighed and walked back upstairs, finding Jimin sitting on the couch with a book in his hands.

"Hyung!" Jimin said as he jumped up and rushed towards Yoongi, "T-Tae o-okay?"

Yoongi nodded and patted the younger's head, "he's okay, what are you reading?"

"C-Colours." He said with a smile, then frowned, "I-I dunno s-some." He said and showed Yoongi the pages he didn't know, "h-hyung teach!" He grinned happily.

Yoongi nodded, "okay Min". He said and guided the boy back on the couch, Yoongi read the words on the pages and taught Jimin many things. When they finished the books, they switched to another book and Yoongi was fascinated by how fast Jimin was learning. He assumed it was the fact that he was once human and the basic memories that he had of learning were coming back.

"This is a-pple." Yoongi pointed to the picture then looked towards Jimin.

"Oh." He said softly as he put the book down on the table. He looked up to check the time, it was close to ten.

Yoongi shifted so Jimin was laying on his lap and he stroked the boy's hair, "jimin you're such a good boy." He said as he bent down and kissed the boy's forehead.

"I bet your parents were so happy to have you." He whispered softly as he watched the boy sleep. A few minutes passed and he realised that he had his gaze on the boy far too long.

"I should bring him to bed." Yoongi said to himself and put his arms under the sleeping boy, carrying him upstairs and into his office room. He placed the boy on the bed and covered him up with a blanket before shutting the door. He decided he would go back to the office and work on the blood sample he got from Jimin.

As he walked past the dining room, he noticed the box of cookies on the table and sighed internally, he had totally forgotten about it. He opened the box and grabbed one before putting it in the fridge. He wrote a note.

Tae you better eat those cookies you baby, Jimin and I went all the way to your favourite shop just to buy this for you. Oh and, save some for me.

Satisfied with it, he put the note on the fridge before walking off and driving back to the laboratory.

How was it? Some yoonmin action there that I totally enjoyed writing hehe oh yea, do check out my new book, Every Breath You Take!! :))
