Part 2 of "I'm Tired of You"

⚠️Death threat⚠️

Namjoon woke up to an empty bedroom. He sat up abruptly, surprised to see the absence on the other bed before realising the argument from the night before. It seemed that Jungkook has not come back to their room during the night because his luggage was still on the same spot, untouched. Namjoon threw himself back and huffed when his head hit the plush pillow, sighing as he wiped his face.

Thanks to the eldest hyung, Namjoon knew Jungkook was with him through Seokjin's text. Namjoon did not know if Jungkook had told what happened between them to Seokjin or not, because Seokjin's text was normal as usual.

He played back the memory from the previous day, how Jungkook was always by his side since they left the dorm. It was cute actually because Jungkook had become more independent as the time goes by, thus his hyungs cherish every moment Jungkook wanted to spend time with them as much as they could. Even so, he still had to admit it was a bit tiring and irritating to have the younger glued to his side almost all day. Namjoon was sure Jungkook must have asked Sejin to place them in the same room.

But, Namjoon started to ask himself what would he do when he was in Jungkook's position. Though the maknae was more mature and independent, it was non-arguably that Jungkook still relies on his hyungs almost all the time, the result of living together with them when he was at the beginning of his blossoming time, the time where everyone felt so lost and unattached from everyone and everything.

Namjoon could take care of himself, he was sure of it. He had started living alone since he was fifteen years old when BigHit escorted him to be the first member of BTS. He had started to make his own money with the music he made even at such a young age. Having parents who didn't support his dreams had made him independent and taught him to take care of himself. He had his plans structured perfectly, he knew what he wants to do in the future.

But Jungkook, Jungkook was different. Jungkook had a loving family with parents that support his dreams since day one, he had become attached to his parents because of how loving and nurturing they were towards him. Jungkook was also the maknae of his family, he had his own hyung that also took good care of him. It had made him more comfortable hanging around people who were older than him and also looked up at them a lot, especially at Namjoon.

Namjoon sighed as the realisation hit him. More often than not Jungkook mentioned how he looked up at Namjoon, that the leader was his role model, the person he could learn a lot from. Namjoon knew he would do the same thing as what Jungkook did to him on the previous day when his own role model was in danger. It must have been terrifying for Jungkook to see his hyung, his role model, was being shadowed by a danger that could attack him unexpectedly.

Guilt poured over him. Even though he was mad at how Jungkook treated the people around them, but he had understood why. He wished that he had been nicer and kinder to Jungkook when he addressed the issue.

At eight o'clock, there was a knock on his door. Namjoon opened the door without looking through the peephole and found his manager with a hotel staff who brought his breakfast. Sejin didn't say much as the staff placed his breakfast on the table in his room, only reminding him they would leave at ten o'clock.

He ate his breakfast. Namjoon had always appreciated silence that gives him more peace to think about anything and everything, but at the moment, the silence was killing him. He wished a certain bunny smile and adorable laugh would be there with him, enjoying their breakfast together. He wanted to come to Seokjin's room and talk with Jungkook, but he knew it wasn't the right time. They had a concert to do and the talk probably would be longer than their free time before the concert, so he had to wait.
