"Wow" Jin said looking at Jimin's neck as the boy leaned forward mixing the cake batter. Jimin glared softly and tried to hide the soft pink marks with his shirt that were sure to form bruises.

"Let me see" Jungkook announced loudly walking into the kitchen with his hair pulled up in a tiny pony tail. He pulled Jimin's shirt down and laughed "cute just wait until Hoseok has fun with you"

Jimin threw a glance at Hoseok who raised his hands in defense as he tried to make icing with Namjoon who snorted. Taehyung sat proudly on the kitchen island swinging his legs with a grin.

"I don't know why we needed three cakes though" Jin said looking at the different colored batters that Jimin was busy making. "Because Hobi doesn't like chocolate, you don't like vanillia, and Namjoon only likes strawberry" Jungkook pointed out leaning against the older playfully.

"And Yoongi won't eat any of them since he doesn't like any of the flavors he only likes cheesecake" he piped up and Jimin huffed "nobody is ever happy with just one thing"

"True that!" Tae said "one time we had to go to three drive throughs to get food for everyone" he laughed and the boys nodded in unison remembering it.

"My momma taught me you get what you get and you don't throw a fit" he told them firmly.

"Yeah but when you're rich you don't have to follow that" Jungkook shrugged.

"Common manners are not just for the poor" Jimin remarked and the two boys making the frosting snickered at the youngest who was scolded. Jimin grinned while Jungkook's mouth straightened "meanie" he huffed sticking out his tongue and dipping his finger into the cake batter bowl and licking it obnoxiously.

Jimin giggled and pulled out a wooden spoon. Kooks eyes got big as he started running while laughing while Jimin was hot on his trails. They were racing down the hallway when Jungkook tripped on a rug and fell on his knees. "Ouch ouch ouch" he muttered looking at his palms and knees that were rug burned. Jimin panted softly still holding the spoon when Yoongi opened a door and stared at the two of them for a moment.

"There is no running in the house and you know that" he said softly "and see what happens when you run, you get hurt" he said annoyed by the loud ruckus that was happening while he was on an important phone call.

Jimin rolled his eyes and turned around starting to go back into the kitchen. "I did not dismiss you" Yoongi said louder.

"And I do not care" Jimin said back and kept walking until he reached the kitchen noticing that Yoongi wasn't following him. He wasn't scared of him anymore, or instead of him, he wasn't scared of death by him anymore.

He walked into the kitchen in a sour mood watching Jin pour the cake batter into pans and placing them evenly in the oven. "Where's Kook?" Namjoon asked licking some frosting.

"I don't know probably with" he trailed off annoyed. "I want to go home" he said suddenly for all the boys to hear he felt dread build up in the bottom of his tummy from saying that. He didn't know the consequences of any of it.

"Why don't you tell us about your home" Jin suggested sitting on a stool.
