JJ Family

Late Night

Jackson's POV...

"And they lived happily ever after," I say, finishing my story. I don't like to read books, I like to tell my own stories and Yugyeom and Youngjae likes them. Youngjae likes them a lot.

Youngjae is so small, I feel the need to protect him.

"Again!" Youngjae cheers.

The light flicks on and appa enters the room. "Why are you too still up? It's way past your bedtime," he says.

"I heard Youngjae coughing," I tell him. "I came in here to make sure he's okay." Youngjae nods.

"Then I started telling him a story to put him to sleep," I explain.

"Jackson stay," Youngjae says and I smile at him.

"Alright," appa says. "But if you're still up by the time I come back, then Jackson you're going to your room."

"Okay appa," I say and climb in bed with Youngjae. Appa leaves and I cuddle Youngjae close.

I tell him another story about how I go to space and save the universe, but he falls asleep halfway through. I'll have to tell him how it ends in the morning. I sigh and close my eyes.
