My Protector

3. Comfort

The two cuddle until dinner and then Yoongi helps Jungkook with his homework before they go to separate bathrooms and get ready for bed Yoongi let's the water get as hot as he can stand it. Enjoying the burning sensation.

After showering and saying goodnight to "mom and dad" Yoongi goes to Jungkook's room where the boy is waiting for them.

The older of the two gets into his "Designated for Yoongi" spot as Jungkook calls it, also known as laying against his chest with Jungkook's arms wrapped around him, protecting him from the cruel world outside.

The two young boys fall asleep with no issue, if only staying asleep could be so easy. Halfway through the night, Yoongi is shaking and mumbling and crying in his sleep. Jungkook quickly wakes him up, knowing how severe Yoongi's nightmares can be.

"Yoongi! Wake up. You're okay, it's okay. You're with me, you're safe. I promise" Jungkook holds Yoongi, rocking him softly, repeating those same words over and over. Yoongi finally gets his breathing under control in the darkness of Jungkook's room. "Jungkook?"

"Yeah?" He feels a soft pair of lips on his own. His heart sinks because he now knows what Yoongi's nightmare was about. When Yoongi has horrific nightmares about his past and Jungkook comforts him, he will usually kiss the younger. It doesn't mean anything to either of them, Jungkook isn't even gay.

But after being so scared, Yoongi just needs comfort. Truth is, he isn't gay either, but letting someone else take control for a bit, even if it's just a quick kiss, helps Yoongi to relax. So, Jungkook kisses his hyung.

The kiss lasts about a minute before Yoongi pulls away, whispers "Thank you" and curls back up against Jungkook's chest. "Always Bun, always" He speaks softly before humming until they both fall back asleep, not bothered by Yoongi's demons anymore that night.

"Good morning Kook!" Hoseok greets loudly. "Good morning Yoongs" He greets the mint haired boy with a lot calmer tone. Yoongi appreciates this very much.

"What's up Hobi?" Jungkook asks, his arm wrapped around Yoongi. "Not a lot, thought I'd come say hi to you and little Yoongie here" Hoseok's voice goes high as if he's talking to a baby. "I'm still your hyung you asshat" Yoongi grumbles, shocking both Jungkook and Hoseok.

"S-Sorry Yoongi-hyung" He groans "Don't call me that" Jungkook and Hoseok laugh to themselves at how quickly Yoongi can change. "Well, we better get to class. C'mon hyungie" Jungkook says, putting on a similar act as Hoseok had done previously.

Yoongi glares at him, making Jungkook laugh. Class drags on as usual. No one talks to Yoongi, all of them being afraid of Jungkook. It's not like he's a bully or anything. His parents are super rich and they donate a lot of money to the school.

Jungkook is mostly feared because he's tall, muscled like a Greek God, and he once hospitalized a guy twice his size for calling Yoongi a nerdy fag.

"Hey Yoongi.. Uh... You dropped this" Yoongi turns to his right and sees Jimin holding a small bracelet. Yoongi's heart dropped. The bracelet Jungkook bought him for his birthday. "Thank y-you" Jimin smiles and hands the bracelet to the mint haired boy.

Yoongi tries to put the bracelet back on himself but he can't get the grabby thing open one handed. Jimin watches Yoongi struggle, his little tongue sticking out slightly as he focuses on the task at hand.
