"Hyung" - m.yg + j.jk

J.JK

We all pretty much collapsed after practice. Laying on the floor, all you could hear was heavy breathing.

Even our mirror had fogged up.

I stood from my place in the middle of the room and grabbed two water bottles out of the newly installed minifridge.

Handing one to Yoongi, I sat him up and draped a towel over his back. Sitting beside him, I opened my own bottle and took a long sip of the cold water.

After he took a sip of his own and capped the bottle once again, he leaned into my side and interlaced our fingers.

"Would you still love me if I wasn't in BTS?" The question caught me off guard, panic filled me as I thought about the possibility of losing him.

He was quite successful as Agust D and would easily cope without the rest of us. It had always been an underlying fear of mine that he'd leave us one day.

"Of course I would. I don't care where you are or what you do, I will always love you. That is, if you'd still accept me," He hit me on the shoulder and claimed I was spouting nonsense.

I stood up, myself, before helping him up too. The rest of the boys joined us on the way to the van.

Due to the demand of Jimin and agreement of Yoongi, all of us caved and we pulled over at McDonald's drive thru. Each of us got happy meals and we bought a big Mac for our manager.

Hoseok, Jimin and Jin threw their toys at each other and played animatedly with them in the back while Namjoon shook his head like a tired father of 12.

I observed a sleepy Yoongi who struggled to doze off through all the noise. He watched the moon almost through his eyelids as they'd slip closed every now and then.

I pulled my earphones out of my bag along with the love of his life, his neck pillow. Plugging the earphones into my phone, I found a soft playlist I knew would help him relax. I leaned over and placed them in his ears, knowing he'd be asleep in no time without the disturbance of the three boys. I handed him the neck pillow and he smiled gratefully.

When we got home everyone jumped out and sprinted to be inside as it was already 2am. I paused the music and took out the earphones as well as taking the neck pillow of of Yoongi. Then I gave him a piggyback, tucking him into our bed.

I slid in next to him and held the small boy close. He was always so cold yet his body exerted heat as I embraced him lovingly.

Though in the morning the bed felt cold and my arms empty. All that lay next to me was a sticky note reading, "At the genius lab, be back by dinner hopefully :)".

I frowned, today was our day off and he'd snuck off to the genius lab before I had the chance to say goodmorning.

Begrudgingly, I dragged myself out of bed and plopped into a seat at the table with the other boys. I leaned my head on my hand and sat silently. Suddenly a bowl of cereal appeared in front of me and I looked up to see Taehyung behind me with a sad smile, "He'll be back later. You know how he is, if he's not working then he's stressing."

I gave a small smile and began eating the cocoa pops before me.

Thinking of Yoongi, I tried to distract my mind by watching tv after I finished eating. Though everytime I laughed I'd think about him, man I was next level clingy.

Eventually lunch time had been and gone and I was still upset that I hadn't seen him today. He told me he'd be home by dinner but knowing him he'd spend the night there at least.

I messaged him and got no reply, we all knew how he often forgot to take care of himself. He frequently would be malnourished, exhausted and stressed.

After waiting an hour, checking my phone every 3 seconds while I attempted to watch a drama, I decided I didn't like the situation. Either he hadn't seen the message since he'd been working, meaning he didn't take a single break in that hour. Or he had gotten stressed and fallen asleep.

Jin began cooking dinner and I grabbed the keys, driving a little over the speed limit in the direction of the genius lab.

I picked up some takeout on the way and pulled up outside the company. I took the elevator to our floor and punched in the passcode for his studio.

Upon entering the genius lab I found him sat at his desk, fallen asleep with his head in his arms. Knowing he exhausted himself from stress, I gently nudged him awake and he looked up at me  rubbing his eyes.

His gaze wondered down to the bag of takeout, he smiled gratefully and the sat together on the couch. I wanted to make sure he was taking care of himself.

"Thank you, I really needed this. I think I over did it a little today," he looked at the ground, clearly ashamed.

I simply stroked his back and held him close, placing a soft kiss on his forehead, "Of course I want you to take care of yourself but I'll still always be here to take care of you when you forget to."

He smiled up at me and squeezed me tight, returning the favour with a sweet kiss on the lips.

"I love you, Hyung."
