yoongi frowned as he rubbed his stomach. he had to go on leave during the last weeks of school because his body was constantly aching and the baby could come at any time. namjoon's leave was set to be in place as soon as the baby was born.

"eunji!" the small boy shouted from the living room, "what?" the girl shouted back from her room, "what did i tell you about leaving your cups on the coffee table?" he shouted and groaned, placing a hand on his hip.

yoongi was 'nesting'. it was a sudden burst of energy he had gotten to prepare the home for his sweey baby boy. he was waddling up and down the apartment, making sure to clean and organize everything in the apartment.

the woman huffed and placed her dirty cups in the sink, "wash them!" he scolded, "ugh" she sighed, grabbing the sponge and putting soap on them.

"after that, we're going to the store to buy some drawers for namjoon and i's bedroom and get a baby carrier because jimin said they're useful" he said, out of breath from speaking.

eunji wanted to protest, but instead nodded to approve.

—

eunji

your fiance is making me build drawers

DOES IT LOOK LIKE IM BOB THE BUILDER??!!

HE'S NESTING REALLY HARDCORE

HE WOKE UP LIKE 10 MINS AFTER YOU LEFT AND WENT INTO MY ROOM WITH A VACUUM AND THEN VACUUMED THE REST OF THE APARTMENT

THEN, HE DUSTED THE WHOLE PLACE AND WIPED IT DOWN

THEN, HE MOPPED

AFTERWARDS HE CLEANED THE BATHROOMS AND WENT INTO MINE AND I WAS LIKE

,,just so you know, there's pads in there,,

AND CONTINUED TO CLEAN EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!

namjoon

i don't want him doing so much

eunji

he said

,,no,,

😁😁

namjoon

UGH

—

eunji glanced at yoongi who was rubbing his belly with a scrunched up expression, he watched as the boy carefully inhaled and exhaled.

"are you okay?" she asked, he nodded and continued folding the baby's clothes and organizing them by season into different cabinets.

"o-ow" he winced, rubbing his rock-solid stomach, "please stop wincing, it's freaking me out" eunji pleaded, "i'm fine" he reassured.

he gripped on to the crib as he stood up grab some of the baby's clothes that were in his shared room.

—

eunji bit her nails as she watched yoongi lean back his head as he gripped on to a wall for support. it was clear yoongi was experiencing some discomfort he wasn't telling anyone about.

"are you sure you're fine?" she asked, yoongi nodded, sitting down on the couch to get his mind off his discomfort. maybe his baby was just a bit more active today!

—

"oh gosh, are you okay?" the tall boy rapidly spoke as he rushed to yoongi's side, "i'm okay" he tried reassuring, but his facial expressions told otherwise.

he tried to get up, but namjoon laid him back down, "rest, stop moving. i'll go get ready" he said, "no, it's okay. i think i'm going to go organize our fridge" he said, "yoongi-ah, just rest" the woman said, her face pale as he saw how uncomfortable yoongi looked.

"i'm literally fine—" his sentence was cut off by a groan, his hand was gripping onto namjoon's hand. he breathed out, wiping the sweat off his forehead, "i'm okay" he said.

"we're going to the hospital" namjoon said, yoongi nodded, rubbing his tummy.

—

yoongi

going to the hospital 👍👍

yoongi's mom

AHHH MY SWEET BOY

yoongi

yoongi's mom

deep breaths!!

i'll go visit you guys when you guys get home again!!

yoongi

thank youu

—

"oppa, are you not freaking out? i'm freaking out for you!" the twin sister said as she watched yoongi hooked up to different machine, "i'm terrified, but if i panic, yoongi will panic" he said, yoongi smiled a bit.

"you know me so well" he said and puckered his lips to place a kiss on namjoon's forehead, "you guys are gross" she mumbled, flicking her brother's forehead.

the small boy shrugged and rubbed his stomach, "joon, have you eaten?" he asked, "a little" he answered, flopping in a chair, "what'd you eat?"

"i ate a cupcake from the teachers lounge" he said, yoongi glared at the boy, "you're stressing me out. eunji, get him something to eat from the cafeteria" he said, wincing at small pain in his stomach, namjoon opened his mouth to protest, but eunji had agreed and dragged namjoon out of the hospital room.

"oppa, are you scared?" eunji chuckled as they walked, "i'm terrified" he mumbled, a small sigh leaving his mouth, "why?" she asked, using a gentle tone. she was known for joking all the time, but she remembered all the times namjoon had comforted her. it was her turn to do the same.

"i'm scared of failing yoongi or the baby" he shamefully admitted, the girl hummed, "you haven't failed mom, dad, yoongi, or i in your 24 years of living. you won't fail anyone" she reassured, "even if you did mess up a bit, you'll be fine. it's natural for a first-time parent" she said, namjoon smiled a bit, "thank you, eunji"

they walked silently for a bit, "on the topic of mom and dad, have they talked to you?" he asked, "they texted me last week to ask if yoongi had the baby" she sighed, pinching the skin between her eyebrows.

"oh" he sadly said, "i don't even know why you send them money. they went no-contact with you because yoongi didn't get an abortion yet you still send them money? no contact, no money" she scoffed, "i don't want them to struggle to meet their needs" namjoon mumbled, picking at his nails, "that's how i know you're a better person than me. don't send them money for one month and they'll be calling you"

"i'm not mean like that" he said as they made a right turn for the cafeteria, "you're annoying"

the twins went to the cafeteria and looked at the menu. namjoon hummed as he looked at the prices that were to the left of the options.

"i'm not that hungry" namjoon said, beginning to walk away, but eunji gripped his t-shirt, "you have to eat!" she grit through her teeth, namjoon scratched the back of his head.

"i'll pay for it as a congrats gift" she said, which is all namjoon needed to eat in peace, "can i get three things?" he asked, "get whatever you want"

namjoon blinked, "when you say it like that, i feel you don't actually want to pay" he said, "i'll pay for whatever you want" she reassured, rubbing her brother's tense shoulders.

he looke at the menu and ended up picking a slice of pizza, a salad, chips, and a soda. to be fair, he was really hungry.

—

"you're so sweaty" eunji mumbled as he stared at the boy in the hospital bed, "can you shut up?" he screeched as he felt a contraction, namjoon winced at the tight grip yoongi had on his hand.

"eunji-ah, go home and you can come visit us when the baby is here" the twin boy said, "sounds good! good luck!" she smiled, yoongi waved as he wiped his sweat with a rag.

he began crying, "do i look ugly, joonie?" he asked through his tears, the tall boy shook his head, "i think you're as beautiful as ever. you're so strong, my boy" he reassured the small boy, pressing a kiss on his forehead.

"i'm scared" he sniffled, namjoon caressed his hair, "it's okay, i'm going to be right here" he said, tucking yoongi's hair behind his ears, "i should have cut my hair before this, it's so sweaty and probably smells bad and probably looks bad" he said, speaking rapidly. namjoon could tell he was nervous.

"i think your hair is cute, it really suits you. let's talk about something else to ease your mind. what name are we finally deciding on?"

yoongi was too panicked to even think, "i-i don't know! it hurts! make it stop!" he cried into his arms, "i'll get a nurse, don't have the baby while i'm gone" he said before running out.

—

"does that feel better?" the nurse asked yoongi, the small boy nodded through tears, "mhm, thank you"

after the nurse left, namjoon brushed yoongi's hair that had gotten a bit tangled from all the sweat and moving around. yoongi appreciated namjoon's minimal actions.

he did absolutely everything in his power to make yoongi feel comfortable even when he just wanted to go home with his baby.

"now that you're feeling better, is min junho going to work?" namjoon asked, yoongi pat his stomach, "i like the name junho" he said.

—

"he's so beautiful" yoongi cried as they placed his baby on his chest, namjoon smiled seeing his two favorite people.

min junho was finally here and healthy as can be thanks to all of namjoon's nerdy meals with a reason behind every food chosen.

"should i do skin-to-skin too?" namjoon asked, preparing to rip off all the medical gear they had given him just to cuddle his baby, "yes, skin-to-skin is highly recommended and provides many benefits to the baby, but let's have yoongi get some time too" the nurse explained, namjoon nodded and continued looking at his baby.

namjoon

eunji

YOU'RE SO ANNOYING UGHHHHH

fine

—

"oh my gosh, he's so cute" eunji cooed at the little boy yoongi was holding, yoongi smiled, "he's my baby" he softly announced, but everyone knew that already.

the two boys were so tired since they had been up since around 6am the previous day, they both just needed to sleep.

she held her arms out for the baby, so junho was carefully transferred into her arms. she squealed, "he's a cutie" she whispered.

"give him to me, i haven't had skin-to-skin yet" he huffed and took off his shirt, eunji had seen her brother shirtless before so it wasn't a big deal to her. she handed junho over  who melted in namjoon's embrace.

yoongi looked at the two boy's with a smile, his eyes threatening to shut from how tired he was, "i'm really sleepy, so i'm going to sleep" he said, namjoon nodded, "sleep well, sugar"

—

eunji

yoongi had his baby this morning

just fyi

namjoon's mom

what is fyi?

oh

i thought you were joking

eunji

it means for your information

why would i joke about that??

namjoon and yoongi are at the hospital 👍👍

the three of them are doing really well

namjoon's mom

they had the baby at a hospital?

eunji

yes

namjoon's mom

that's a questionable decision

eunji

😐😐

because it 'costs too much money'??

JUST SO YOU KNOW, NAMJOON IS VERY WELL OFF AND SO IS YOONGI

namjoon's mom

mhm

do you have any photos?

eunji

yes, but i'm not showing you. you don't deserve to see after you told yoongi to get an abortion

namjoon's mom

you guys are so spiteful

eunji

yes i am

joon not so much

however, he should be

he sends you 1000 a month so you won't end up in the streets but you still had the audacity to tell him and his fiance to not have a family and not apologize

namjoon has done EVERYTHING for you guys to stay well and the one time he comes to you guys, you mess up

—

"drive slower!" yoongi whined as they drove back home, namjoon slammed the breaks, "i can't go any slower! we'll get stopped by the police!"

yoongi frowned, staring at his baby boy who was swaddled in his care seat. he was sleeping so peacefully which made him smile.

"just grip on to the seat, nothing will happen" he reassured, looking at all the car mirrors. the small boy caressed junho's hair. yoongi thought that junho was the luckiest boy in the world because kim namjoon was his father.

"aren't you the luckiest baby in the world?" yoongi cooed, namjoon looked at the two boys from the mirror, "try not to talk to him like that because it'll be harder for him to learn to speak properly" he said, yoongi rolled his eyes, "he's a baby"

"so?" namjoon asked, yoongi sighed and shook his head, "let me talk to my baby however i want" he said, "fine, but if he needs speech therapy, you're paying for it" he shrugged, earning a huff from yoongi.

—

yoongi's mother cooed at the little boy in his arms, "what a cute baby" she smiled, looking at the couple.

"how was the drive from daegu? can i get you guys anything to eat?" namjoon asked, smiling as he made eye contact with his in laws, "the drive was fine and we're not hungry, but thank you! we brought you guys some things"

the woman began pulling out some boxes from a bag she brought, "i got you guys this high-tech baby sock which can tell you if the baby is awake and his oxygen levels as well as his heartbeat. it also comes with a camera you can put near the bed" she smiled, handing the couple that.

namjoon gasped, "woah, thank you so much!" he said, the woman laughed at his excitement, "it's no problem at all" she said, pulling out some baby outfits and room decor.

the tall boy admired how supportive the mother was of yoongi. she had brought a bunch of things to help the new parents and the baby. he was in shock.

his parents hadn't talked to him at all throughout yoongi's pregnancy. they hadn't bothered to even send an apology, which was free and wouldn't cost them a cent.

namjoon wanted to cry thinking about it. he tried not to cry as he watched yoongi and his parents bond and talk about junho.

—

"oppa, why are you sad?" eunji asked as she made a yummy dinner for the household, "what? i'm not sad" he chuckled as he scrolled through his phone.

she hummed, "i'm your twin and i'm sensing something" she said, yoongi looked at twins, frowning at the tension between the two.

he shrugged, "i'm fine" he said, earning eunji a glare, "whatever you say" she mumbed, namjoon nodded, trying not to look at her.

all he wanted was for his mom and dad to talk to him, was that too much to ask for?

—

eunji

why r u sad

i can see it in ur face

namjoon

can i go to your room??

yoon is showering rn

eunji

yeah ofc

—

"tell me, oppa. what is it that's making you sad?" she asked, namjoon picked at the carpet he wa sitting on and sighed, "i just want mom and dad to talk to me"

the tall boy began sniffling, break his sister's hugged. he just wanted the bare minimum, "they make me feel so guilty for starting a family" he cried into his knees. eunji had never felt so much rage and sadness at the same time.

"yoongi's parents came over and brought a bunch of gifts and they were bonding with the baby. i just want them to apologize and be nice to me" he sobbed, "i-i've done so much for them in the last decade and this is how they thank me?" he sniffed, wiping his runny nose.

"oh namjoon" she frowned, "it's whatever" he said, finally wiping his tears, "i'll just go to sleep or something, maybe i'll schedule something with my therapist" he mumbled and stood up to leave.

eunji was in shock at how easily namjoon dismissed his problems. he hated how he acted like he was fine when in reality, his heart was crushed.

—

eunji

do you want me to talk to mom and dad for you?

yk what

just don't send them money

namjoon

—

"joonie, you really do look sad" yoongi said as he flopped next to namjoon who was on his phone, "i'm fine" he reassured, pressing a kiss on yoongi's cheek.

it was quiet, just the two boy's enjoying each other's presence, "eunji said she'll take of junho overnight so we can sleep" he smiled, yoongi smield back and nodded.

he snuggled his head into namjoon's chest, "i love you"

"i love you too"

—
