"Boyfriend?" Jimin asked incredulously, Jungmin only nods his head in response.

"Yes, please!" the toddler says his lisp slipping with how eager he was, lifting his hand with the flower insistently. The pink haired laughs lightly, nodding his head and accepting the flower.

"Okay, Little Prince. Boyfriend's then." Jimin agreed, accepting the flower and thanking the younger boy who had a cheeky grin on his face.

"–eon Jungmin!" a voice screamed from behind them, the pink haired looks to the source of the sound along with Jungmin who had jumped forward to hug him while he was crouching down.

"Taetae?" Jimin acknowledged in suprise, the brunet's frown clearing up into a look of recognition.

"Jiminie! Hi!" He greeted, jogging towards the two of them and looking at Jungmin weirdly.  "I thought you were gonna accompany your brother to Zumba?"

"He's over at the soccer court." Jimin explained helpfully.

"Oh okay, hey little rascal!"  Taehyung called out, Jungmin yells out something and hides behind Jimin.

"But hyung, I'm sorry!" the toddler wailed, hugging Jimin by his neck from behind his crouching frame. "Pretty, please protect me from the evil lion!"

"Ya! What did you call me?!" the brunet yelled, stomping his way closer towards the swings. "Jungkook is going to–"

"Jeon Jungmin!" Jungkook roared out, appearing from behind Taehyung with an angry gaze. His gaze falters, lips parting when he sees his brother hiding behind Jimin who was now looking at him with a sheepish smile. "Oh–Miracle?"

"Hey, you." Jimin greets out, humoring Jungmin by playfully hiding him away. "Don't fight my little bean."

"But he ran away from us! We spent 30 minutes searching for him around the block!" Taehyung complained loudly.

"I was looking for flowers!" Jungmin defended petulantly, standing beside Jimin and opening his palm for the latter to take. The pink haired grabs it without much thought.

"C'mon, bubba. They're just worried about you and running away isn't nice you know?" Jimin scolded gently, the toddler huffs and scrunches his face up in disapproval. He sighs after awhile and nods, looking up at the two males towering over them.

"I'm sorry, Taehyung-hyung and Dadd– hyung." Jungmin corrects himself, pursing his lips because of his slip up in embarrassment and looking at Jungkook with shiny tears. "I'm sorry, hyung."

Jungkook's gaze softens, walking forward and crouching down to level his gaze on his brother.

"Hey, kiddo. Look at me." he whispered gently, ruffling the kid's hair. "I don't mind you calling me that, come here." the raven haired reaches over to hug his brother tightly, glancing at Jimin.

"He's your son..?" the pink haired asked, tilting his head curiously.

"Goodness, no." Jungkook chuckled out, rubbing Jungmin's back in comfort. "He's my brother, 12 year gap. He's the one I told you we were gonna pick up but you had plans already."

Jimin's eyebrows shoot up in surprise. "Oh! This is a coincidence then, Hoseok-hyungie is around the soccer court doing his Zumba and I was just strolling by."

"Dad–" Jungmin says cutely, his lips stretched into a proud smile when he separates from the hug. "You know Jimin-pretty?"

"Yeah, I like him." Jungkook deadpaned, raising one eyebrow in question when Jungmin puffs his cheeks out angrily.

"You can't like my boyfriend!" the toddler screamed out in annoyance, stomping his feet on the ground. "Stop liking him!"

"Boyfriend?" the raven haired asks in surprise, his eyebrows shooting up in surprise as Taehyung snickers from beside him. "What the hell are you talking about, kid?"
