"Kim Seokjin?" Taehyung asked over the phone, "literally Kim Seokjin?"

"That's what I was saying!" Jungkook laughed.

"You're telling me Hanbin likes Kim Seokjin? That insolent fuck?!"

The day, Jungkook had been trying to figure out who Hanbin could stay with without sending the boy into an anxious fit. The babysitter made him nervous along with Jimin and Namjoon. He had wanted to give up, figuring Hanbin just wasn't going to be able to stay with anyone and that adult time would just have to wait, but then Seokjin texted. During their short conversation, Jungkook told Seokjin that he and Taehyung were supposed to be going on a spa date but he, sadly, he was probably going to have to cancel their plans because Hanbin wasn't comfortable around people. So, of course, Seokjin shoved himself further into the situation and showed up at Jungkook's house not too long after.

And surprising enough, Hanbin didn't pitch a fit or show any signs of anxiety or nervousness around the older man. Jungkook was beyond shocked but it also made him a little happy. He didn't understand why Hanbin didn't freak out on Seokjin but he decided not to question it.

"You said it didn't matter who it is as long as I trust them and I trust Seokjin," Jungkook said as he placed the phone between his ear and shoulder to untangle Chanwoo's hair.

"How on God's green earth do you trust Seokjin?!" Taehyung groaned.

"I just do," Jungkook groaned back.

"You were probably one of those fans who wrote fanfiction about him or some shit and now you think he can do no wrong."

"Kim Taehyung," Jungkook snapped playfully, accidentally pulling Chanwoo's hair and calling him to yell out in pain and shock. He quickly apologized and patted the boy's head before going back to his conversation. "You're so stubborn. Seokjin is my fr—"

"Don't you dare say the F-R word in regards of that deceitful bat!" Taehyung shouted, feigning betrayal, "how can I date someone who likes Seokjin?"

"I dunno but you're doing it," the younger man laughed as he pulled his four-year-old's hair back into a small bun, "and he's my friend."

Another groan. "Ewe goddamnit."

"I have to finish getting Chan ready for the day,  my babysitter is taking him and Jaemin to some kids area," Jungkook said, "see you at the set."

"We'll be gone on Saturday and Sunday at this spa retreat, but shooting will continue that following Monday," Taehyung explained to his team. They all nodded without any questions.

His eyes landed on Charlie who was busy texting on his phone. He frowned, thinking the producer didn't hear him until he looked up and said,

"Isn't your son like mentally disabled?"

To which Jungkook sent him a glare that would have killed him on the spot of looks could kill. "No, he's not mentally disabled."

"You know what I meant," Charlie offered a smile, "how will you go to a spa retreat when he has to have you around 24/7?"

"I found someone he can stay with," Jungkook retorted.

"Kim Seokjin, of all people," Taehyung quickly with a groan and an eye roll making the people around him chuckle as most of them knew about their rocky relationship.
