Raising an eyebrow, Jin asks confidently "So what do you say?"
~
Without trying to look too much like the desperate mess he is, Jimin agrees immediately, and finds himself suddenly drawn into a hug.
He hesitates for a second before wrapping his arms around Jin's slender waist, finding he doesn't mind hugging him.
"Yay! This is so great. You're going to like it I swear! We'll talk more in the morning though, since you look like you're about to pass out."
Shotting Jimin a bright smile he practically skips back over to the sofa, where he holds the light again for Namjoon.
Jimin can't help but smile as he curls up in the chair. He got a Job! In a café at that, so nothing too sleazy. At least he should earn enough to get by. All he had to do now was find somewhere to rent. But he's not worried about that right now. He feels more secure in life than he has in weeks.
Pulling his phone from his pocket he sends a few quick of texts to Jungkook, although he doubts he'll be awake.

Jimin absentmindedly plays with his tail, and he watches the others. There's something about the firm set of Namjoon's shoulders that doesn't sit quite right with Jimin, it tells him something is wrong.
Jin leaves the room briefly and returns with water, handing some too Yoongi and some to Jimin. He hadn't realised how thirsty he was until that moment, as he gratefully downs the glass. He hears Namjoon telling Yoongi to drink all of it, elliciting a grumble from the tired man.
Once Yoongi is all cleaned up he smiles at Namjoon and weakly says "Thanks Joon. You know where the guest room is, you're welcome to stay there. You two should get some sleep"
Sighing he nods in return "Thanks, we will. Like I said to Jimin though we're doing blood tests in the morning, I definitely think your arm is going to be infected, so you'll probably need antibiotics for that. Also I'm not entirely sure you don't have a concussion, so if you have any vomitting I need you to wake me and tell me immediately, or call for someone okay?"
Chuckling Yoongi says "Sure sure. How do you even sleep at night? You worry so much."
Yoongi slowly makes his way towards his bedroom, glad he can finally get that sleep he's been craving for hours. His eyes scan over the room as he leaves, almost missing the silver haired cat curled up watching him.
Wait...
"Oh... Jimin"
Halting in his tracks, Yoongi's eyes meet Jimin's, his mouth falling open without him realising. In his exhaustion he'd forgotten about Jimin completely. There's a hopeful look in his eyes, as if he's anticipating what Yoongi will say next.
"You can stay too... let me just..." He should grab some pillows and a blanket. He walks off into his room, digging around in his closet looking for what he needs.
Grabbing the only pillow he can find, along with the softest blanket he owns, he takes them back out, unceremoniously dropping them in Jimin's lap.
"You can take the sofa. Bathroom is down the hall on the left, and the kitchen through that door over there if you get thirsty" He gestures vaugley towards the door. He nods, feeling like he got everything and turns on his heel to go.
However he's stopped by a hand, gently enclosed around his wrist. Turning back he meets the boys wide eyes and asks "Do you need anything else?"
Quickly shaking his head Jimin quietly but determinedly says "Thank you", the sincerity behind his statement shining through.
He bites his lip before continuing. "Thank you for everything. Not just for this, but" he looks down, before his eyes flit back up, "thank you for protecting me. I'll never forget that."
Yoongi's lips quirk up on one side, forming an uneven smile. He raises a hand to his hair, gently patting his ears, amazed by how silky they are. "Goodnight Jimin" he hums, and slips from his grasp.
Jimin smiles to himself as he settles in on the sofa, being careful of his shoulder. He wraps himself up in a blanket cocoon, and feels himself relax, drifting off to sleep. He feels surrounded by someone's scent, which in the back of his mind he registers as Yoongi. He finds he particularly likes it, a mixture of peppermint - although it's subtle rather than overbearing, and.... petrichor - the pleasant earthy smell when rain hits the dry earth.
Before long the house is quiet, everyone getting some well earned rest.

When Jimin wakes in the morning, there's a beautifully sweet aroma wafting through the air.
Pancakes.
He sits up, wiping the sleep from his eyes, and follows his nose. What he finds is Jin frying up what look like the best pancakes he's ever seen. It's not like pancakes are even that hard to make, and yet somehow these just seem better than all the ones he's had before.
There's a huge stack of them sitting next to him on the counter, and Jimin is all but drooling at the sight. "Goodmorning Jimin, how are you feeling?" Jin asks without turning.
Jimin isn't surprised the cat had sensed his presence, but he's amused by Namjoon's reaction. The doctor turns and sees him standing in the doorway.
"Freaky! I didn't even realise you were there. Goodmorning! Well... afternoon actually. How are you feeling?" he chuckles.
"I'm okay, a bit hungry" Jimin smiles, and goes to sit next to him at the small table, still feeling a little awkward around them.
Namjoon runs an inquisitive eye up and down him and asks "Any new pains?"
Shaking his head he replies "No nothing new. I feel okay... tired and beaten up... but okay" he laughs a little.
"That's good! Hopefully you'll feel a lot better in a few days then, although I would be careful of your shoulder for a little while. That'll also need to be cleaned and have fresh bandages at least once a day."
Jimin nods thinking he'll have to buy supplies for that, and can't help but lick his lips as he's presented with a huge stack of pancakes and a glass of milk.
"Thank you Jin Hyung!" He says happily, not giving a second thought to the 'hyung'. Jin had looked after him, been friendly (except that one incident when they first met), he'd even gone so far as to offer him a job, and make him pancakes, so he imagined they would get closer after this.
Squealing assaults his ears as Jin practically dances around the kitchen. "Joonie did you hear that?! He called me hyung! Did you get that on camera? Oh my God."
"Jin-ah-"
"This Hyung will bake you whatever you want Jimin. You just let me know okay?" Enveloping Jimin in a hug he sways them back and forth as much as he can with Jimin being seated.
"Jin!" Namjoon whisper shouts.
"What?" He whines back. "Let me cuddle this cutie."
Namjoon is serious as he says "I think you woke Yoongi."
A look of horror briefly flits across the elders face as he draws back from Jimin. "No.... oh no no no... I'm too young to die!"
All of a sudden an angry dishevelled man comes bursting into the kitchen, his eyes promising murder as he spits out "Alright. Which one of you fuckers was screaming in my goddamn kitchen when I was trying to sleep?!"
