Voices // Namjoon x BTS

Namjoon was once again awakened from his slumber by the sound of knuckles hitting his wooden door. A groan left his mouth accompanied by a yawn a few seconds later. Namjoon rubbed his half-lidded eyes, blinking to get his vision right, feeling the the weight on his right arm, he turned to his right and found the Maknae cuddling in his shoulder.

"Namjoon-ah, is Jungkook with you? We can't find him," Namjoon heard Hoseok's voice which was followed by ruffling of the knob and continuous banging on the door, as the older on the older side of the door started to grow impatient.

"Ah- yes Seok, Jungkook is with me," Namjoon replied, shouted in a raspy voice.

"Okay then both of you come down to breakfast, we have dance practice in an hour," with that the older left, probably to the table to eat breakfast himself.

Namjoon gently shook Jungkook's shoulder, trying to wake the younger up. When the younger didn't respond, Namjoon poked the Maknae's cheek causing the younger to wrinkle his nose and absentmindedly wave his hand to hit whatever that was disturbing his sleep. Namjoon stifled a giggle at the adorable reaction of the younger. He slowly put his hands over the younger's stomach with an evil smirk and tickled him.

Jungkook's eyes flew open, laughter erupted from his mouth, he begged his hyung to stop as the tears formed in his eyes. Finally, the older stopped and smiled at the younger while the singer took deep breaths and showed the older his infamous bunny smile.

Namjoon ruffled Jungkook's chestnut locks, "let's go eat breakfast before it finishes, okay?" Jungkook nodded in response. He got out of the bed slowly, rubbed his eyes, yawned, his index finger underneath his nose instead of putting his hand over his mouth.

Namjoon went to his closet, grabbing whatever he found and wore it, which ended up being an oversized black hoodie with a pair of black trousers which he ended the look with black shoes. He deemed the outfit comfortable, satisfied as they were going to be at the company for long as after the practice they had to record few Japanese version songs and the title song of the wings album.

Namjoon took a seat, watched the group chatter. "Hyung, here have egg, it's so tasty!" Jimin exclaimed, putting the egg into his plate. Namjoon internally groaned, it was really ironic how Jimin himself was not eating much these days, skipping meals as the comeback grew nearer. Namjoon made a note to tell Seokjin about this as he didn't know what to say to the younger himself as he was too, struggling to eat even one meal which ended up down the drain anyways.

Reluctantly, Namjoon grabbed the fork, brought the egg in his mouth and slowly chewed. Namjoon raised his head when he heard someone call out his name, realizing it was Seokjin. "Sorry hyung, What were you saying?" Namjoon asked. "I was saying, could you help me with my solo song, since you are a producer and I don't want to bother Yoongi and Hobi." It was then Namjoon realized that Yoongi was not present at the table but he didn't think too much of it and ignored it. A fake smile made appearance on Namjoon's face, "sure hyung, let's work on it after recording the songs, now if you will excuse me, l need to use the toilet before we leave for the company." Namjoon got up and left the table before anyone could say anything.

Namjoon wiped the stomach acid from his lips, weakly got up, flushed the toilet. Slowly walked to the sink, washed his face and stared at the mirror. Pointing out all the flaws that he could find, hating himself for not being what the other people wanted him to be, being a visual pollution of the group.

A knock brought him back to the world. "Hyung, we need to leave, the van in here!" Namjoon heard Taehyung's deep voice. He replied the younger that he was coming. He quickly brushed his teeth and looked back at the mirror, making sure that nothing was suspicious and walked out.
