A/N
Jungkook's older than Jimin in this

PAST

6 & 4

"Jimin!" Jimin jumped up as he put down his toys and went downstairs as he heard his mother call him. He went running down those stairs, with a big smile on his face. Once he got down he went towards the kitchen, and he saw this strange guy sitting at the table with another little boy like him. Maybe he was older, but still.
"Jimin, this is mommy's boyfriend"

"Hey kiddo!" Jimin gave him a strange look. He didn't know where to go with this, especially since he couldn't really come across the word "Boyfriend". But he was more focused on the boy, who was sitting next to his mom's so called boyfriend. He wanted to learn more about him. He wanted to be his friend.
"And this is his son Jungkook"

"Hi Jimin"
Jimin was... Not gonna lie, intimidated by the boy with black hair, dark blue eyes, and a smile that reminded him of the bunny. But no matter what, he was still drawn to the boy like a moth moving towards a flame.
"Can you say hi, Jimin?"
"... Hi" Jimin mustered out, shyly, and almost sounding like a whisper.
"Hi Jimin. It's so nice to meet you. My son has been looking forward to making new friends. Jungkook, why don't you go and play with Jimin for a bit, ok?"
"Ok daddy"

Jungkook got out of his chair, and he followed Jimin upstairs to his bed room. Walking up the stairs, he was looking at the pictures carefully mounted up on the walls. They were all pictures of what Jungkook thought were the rest of Jimin's family. He stopped, looking at the pictures. "Jimin?" The blonde stopped where he was, taking a few steps down. "Is this your daddy?"

Jimin walked down towards Jungkook to see the picture he was looking at, only to see that Jungkook was pointing at the picture with the man with dark brown hair and blue eyes.
"Yeah. That's him"
"Oh... where is he?"
"I don't know, but my mommy hates him"

"Why?"
"I don't know, mommy never told me"
"Oh" there was a bit of a silence between the two boys, until Jungkook suddenly broke it and asked,
"Do you miss him?"

"No. He hated me"
"Why?"
"I don't know, something about 'gay'"
"What does gay mean?"

"I don't know" Jimin had finally spoke, as they stayed silent and looked up at the picture for longer, until those two went up the stairs to play with Jimin's toys. This was how these two bonded. Both Jimin and Jungkook felt like they were becoming friends. Or maybe even best friends. For a while now, there was a heat that Jimin was feeling on his cheeks, and a smile that creeped up his little face. He was OVER THE MOON just from spending time with him. Now Jimin was hoping he'd be his older brother someday.

Jimin and Jungkook were giggling and having fun, and then their parents called them over from at the swing set to share some interesting news.
"Jungkook, how would you like a little brother for a change?" Jungkook had no idea what his dad was trying to say.

"Your father and I are getting married!" Jimin didn't know how he was supposed to respond, and neither did Jungkook. The two adults then realized that these were kids they were talking to, so they explained the meaning and concept of marriage to them. After that, Jimin and Jungkook were in disbelief and happiness that they were becoming brothers soon. And this was what Jimin had been hoping for, that this was what he wanted.
