"Shhhhhh" I hushed the boy who was lightly sobbing as he tried to fall asleep with his head resting on my lap.

I started humming on a lullaby I learned he loved a long time ago as I stroked his soft ash blonde hair.
I soon heard a light snoring from the boy and I breathed out.
Finally.
He's at peace.

I carefully lifted his head to not wake him up and placed a pillow under his head as I stood up from the sofa.
I took one of the blankets and put it over him so he wouldn't freeze.

That's when I heard a knock on the door and Tannies growling.

I rushed towards the door with a smile spreading on my face.
I opened the door and saw a nervous boy in front of it.
"Come in" I said with a smile.

He walked in and took off his shoes and his jacket.

"He just fell asleep" I said and walked into the living room.

"Do you know what happened?" He asked as he sat down in the sofa. Just above the sleeping boys head.

"Yeah.

They got into a fight because Yoongi was jealous about Jimin and I being so close considering our history-" I looked into his dark brown eyes and I could see a hint of dissatisfaction in them as I spoke about the past.
"Jimin defended himself saying we were just friends and Yoongi called him a whore that would sleep with anyone." His eyes widened.

"What?" He asked in pure rage and confusion.

"Yeah. Jimin got here and he was so drunk. I told him he could stay here for a couple days since Liam is away with his friends" I explained.

I sat down in the armchair and Tannie jumped up on my knee.

"I'm guessing that is Tannie?" He asked with a slight chuckle.

"Yeah!
He's not that good with new people" I said as he started growling.

"That makes two of us" he said with a chuckle again.

I just smiled at him as I heard a growling sound that wasn't from the dog laying on my knee.

"Are you hungry?" I asked and smiled as I remembered what he had told me before.

"A little bit" he said shyly.

"I'll be right back!" I said and picked up Tannie to put him down carefully before I stood up.

I walked into the kitchen and took out a plate from the fridge. I put the plate with food in the microwave. When the familiar sound went off I took the plate again and walked into the living room with the plate.

"Pancakes?" He said with a shocked expression. "You remembered?"
