***

Every morning a parent mourns the loss of a child who is still alive because not being able to see the child feels like death.

-Unknown

Hobi's eyes opened reluctantly at the sound of the alarm, and he waited for a long moment, but the sound didn't stop. Of course it didn't. It was his job, after all. But he'd come to wait for a lot of different expectations, and he was used to them failing him.

He rolled over and turned off the alarm before sitting up and rolling his neck, then stretching his arms above his head. After a minute of that, he got out of bed and crossed the room, shaking the lump inside the blankets. "Hyung? Hyung, it's time to wake up for school. Okay? Hyung?"

He knew Yoongi had risen to consciousness by the weak punch that was thrown his way.

That's when Hobi backed away and went back to his side of the room, scaling the ladder and gently shaking the nearest leg. "Jiminie? Jiminie, hon, time to wake up."

Jimin rolled first to the right, then to the left before finally sitting up, rubbing his eyes, his hair sticking in ten different directions. "'m up, h-hyung," he mumbled before falling back onto his pillow.

Hobi just sighed. "For real, Jimin. You need to get up, okay?"

Jimin groaned before pushing himself back up.

Hobi nodded. "Good boy," he said before going back down the ladder and prodding Yoongi once more, ducking to avoid being hit. "Get up already, hyung. I'm not going to do it again."

Muffled curses came from inside the blanket, and Hobi hurried to get outside of Yoongi's radius of violence. He grabbed a change of clothes just as Jimin was crawling down the ladder, clumsily missing a step and almost falling off, but Hobi moved to quickly push him back towards the ladder.

"T-Thanks, hyung," Jimin said, his eyes barely open at all.

Hobi just nodded before grabbing his clothes off his bed. "I'm showering first," he said.

"C-Can't we just shower t-together?"

Hobi rolled his eyes before flicking Jimin's forehead. "No."

"B-B-But hyung, you t-take up most of the h-hot water and then Y-Yoongi yells at me b-but I'm not the one t-taking t-twenty-minute showers-"

"Too bad, I called dibs," Hobi said before exiting their bedroom and hopping in the shower. Twenty minutes later, he returned to the room to see Jimin sitting on his bed, much more awake now, and Yoongi, sitting in his own bed, and barely conscious.

Still, as soon as they saw Hobi, they both made a run for the door, only Yoongi got their first and put a hand on Jimin's forehead, pushing him out of the way as he hurried ahead and locked himself in the bathroom.

Jimin turned and frowned at Hobi. "It's n-not fair," he grumbled. "Just cause he's older than me, and now I have to take a cold shower."

Hobi just smiled, ruffling Jimin's hair. "Too bad."
