Little Space

little hoseokie~

Jimin and Taehyung sat on the ground, playing with their stuffies. Occasionally, one of them let out a loud squeal and it would cause the other to giggle. Hoseok walked into the room and grinned, tousling each of the little's hair.

"Uncle Hobiii, will you play with usss?" Jimin asked, sticking out his bottom lip.

Taehyung joined. "Please~?"

Hoseok plopped down on the carpet, facing the two of them. "Of course, sunshines."

The two giggled and quickly handed him a stuffed animal.

Namjoon and Seokjin walked into the room to check on the two littles. Hoseok had come over to help them babysit for the day and they trusted him to keep Jimin and Taehyung occupied, but they still felt the need to check up on the three. They tended to feed off each other's energy.

Seokjin froze at the door, making Namjoon slam into him from behind. Namjoon coughed, surprised. "Hyung, what?"

Seokjin stared at the three on the floor, noticing something was different. Not necessarily wrong, just very different. Hoseok was laying on the floor, humming to himself as he played with a stuffed animal. His legs were kicking up behind him. Taehyung was laid on him, his head resting on the small of Hoseok's back. Jimin was laying across Taehyung's lap.

"Hoseok-ah?" Seokjin called.

Hoseok picked his head up and looked at Seokjin. "Hi, hyung!" he said in a higher voice than normal. He was positively beaming.

Seokjin walked over and sat in front of Hoseok, holding his face in his hands. "You feeling okay?"

Hoseok nodded. "I feel great!"

Seokjin shot Namjoon a look. Namjoon returned it. The eldest turned back to Hoseok and smiled. "Alright, sweetie. You have fun playing with Jiminie and Taehyungie, okay?"

Hoseok nodded, a slight blush on his cheeks. "Yes, Jinnie hyung!"

Yoongi knocked on the door. Seokjin ran and threw it open, grabbing Yoongi's arm and pulling him inside. Yoongi yelped but let the eldest drag him into a bedroom.

"What?" Yoongi drawled, rubbing his arm once Seokjin let it go.

"I think Hoseokie's a little, Yoon."

Yoongi quirked his head to the side. "What do you mean?"

"I mean, he was playing with Taehyung-ah and Jiminie and he started acting... little? I don't know. You know more about this than anyone." Seokjin reached up and scratched his own head. "Could you see if I'm right?"

Yoongi glared at him. "How the hell would I know?"

"Yoongi-yah~!" Seokjin whined. He bounced in place.

"Fine, fine," Yoongi agreed. "I'll see."

Seokjin grinned and patted him on the shoulder. The eldest opened the door, pushing Yoongi out into the hallway. He directed Yoongi towards the two — or three — littles.

Yoongi knelt down near the floor, Jimin coming over and attacking him with kisses. Yoongi giggled and tousled his hair, saying hello. Yoongi moved to Taehyung next, kissing his forehead.

"What about me, Yoonie hyung?"

Yoongi looked over at Hoseok with a sweet smile. "Of course, Seokseok." Yoongi kissed his forehead and playfully pinched his ear, making Hoseok giggle.

Yoongi looked up to Seokjin, who was watching them with crossed arms. Yoongi nodded and shrugged as he sat on the floor next to Jimin. Seokjin nodded as well and went to find Namjoon.

"Namjoon-ah?" Seokjin called, walking into the kitchen.

Namjoon was seated at the table staring at his laptop. "Hm? Were we right?"

Seokjin sighed and sat down. "Yoon thinks so."

Namjoon nodded and sat back in his chair. "Okay. So?"

Seokjin shrugged. "I don't know. There's nothing wrong with it. I'm just worried for him."

"Worried how?"

"I don't know. I know littles don't technically need someone, but Jiminie and Tae do, and they have Yoongi and Jungkookie. Hoseok is like Jiminie and Taehyung-ah combined." Seokjin ran a hand through his hair.

The younger sighed. "Yeah. So...?" He looked back down at his computer.

There was a moment of silence before, "Joonie, can we take care of him?"

Namjoon snapped his gaze up to Seokjin. "What?"

"I mean..." Seokjin cleared his throat. "You really seem to like taking care of Jiminie and Taetae and... you always have the biggest smile when you're with them. I love it too, so much. And if Hoseok needs someone... Why not, right?"

Namjoon was quiet for a minute as he thought. He eventually shrugged and his mouth quirked into a small smile. "Yeah. Okay, sure."

"Really? I mean, I'll have to ask Hobi if he'd like to, but you really don't have a problem with it?"

Namjoon shook his head. "No. I kind of really want to."

Seokjin nearly squealed. He leaned over and kissed Namjoon, earning him a blush. He quickly ran back to the living room to continue watching the kids.

"Hey, Jiminie?" Yoongi said, swiping on his phone screen.

"Hm?" Jimin responded, his head against Yoongi's stomach.

The two were laying on their bed, each on their phones. Yoongi had his head on the pillow and one hand brushing Jimin's hair. Yoongi wasn't sure when they got into this position, but he didn't mind.

"I think Hoseok-ah's a little."

Jimin sat up and faced him, phone forgotten in his lap. "What?"

Yoongi shrugged. "Yeah. When you were with him earlier, he was acting so little it was impossible not to see."

"I didn't see it," Jimin said, tilting his head to the side and staring at the wall.

"Yeah, well, you were small too."

Jimin nodded and looked back at Yoongi. "Okay? I mean, that's amazing. Another little. I'm ecstatic, honestly, I'm just so tired." Jimin smiled.

Yoongi chuckled. "Mhm. I'll set up a playdate later. Nap with me." The elder reached up and took Jimin's hand, pulling him down to lay next to him.

Jimin laughed and kissed Yoongi softly. "Mm'kay."
