Work Text:
yoongi is sitting on the kitchen island with an iced coffee in his hands, he's hoping it'll wake him up from being up all night composing. his eyes are droopy, he lets out a yawn before taking a small sip. he enjoys these quiet moments in the morning, where it's just him and the rising sun; both of them getting ready to start the day and support those around them.
he shakes his head sleepily. now his mind is comparing him to the sun and that means he should probably take at least an hour nap before the day starts. he sets his coffee down and stretches, arms over his head and mouth open wide in a yawn. even with the coffee in his system he could probably fall asleep like this. wiggling his toes, he prepares himself to stand when--
"yoongi hyung!" he doesn't react, just sits back in his chair and waits to see what the youngest wants from him.
a hand reaches over him and grabs his coffee, he doesn't fight it. just let's jungkook get away with taking his coffee away. "morning, kook-ah."
"the coffee is too bitter, hyung." jungkook's nose scrunches up and he sets the mug down.
"yeah, i know. that's how i like it." he murmurs hoping jungkook will go off and bother someone else.
"anyway, i know you said you wanted to start working out this year so i wanted to invite you to go on a morning run with me." and yoongi hadn't noticed that jungkook isn't in pajamas, he's in running gear. a grey puma hoodie to match grey puma sweatpants.
yoongi sighs, he knows he should join because he did say he wanted to work out more but he's so tired and needs at least an hour to function properly. "okay, kook-ah. let me get ready."
"yay! i'll wait outside, hyung." and he bounces off with so much energy that could only be compared to a rabbit.

they're all sat around the table eating breakfast, the sun is up and so are the other members. yoongi and jungkook came back from their run to see seokjin in the kitchen with taehyung, preparing breakfast.
"i'm gonna go shower!" jungkook ran off and yoongi went to greet the two in the kitchen before he decided he wanted to shower as well.
"yoongi hyung~" that deep voice called his name in a sweet way and he sighed before turning to see what taehyung wanted. "can you help me?" he's got a knife in one hand and a tomato in the other hand. "i don't wanna mess up or jin hyung will get mad."
yoongi takes the knife and shows taehyung how to dice tomatoes. "they should look like this." he points out and taehyung nods with a small pout on his lips.
"can you just do the rest, hyung? please?" and yoongi was never one to say no to taehyung's boyish charms. so instead of going off to shower, he stays in the kitchen and helps taehyung with each task that seokjin gives him.
now they're all eating and yoongi is showered and feels oddly refreshed for the lack of sleep in his system.
"yoongi hyung helped me a lot!" taehyung brags to the other members about the breakfast they're all consuming. "he's an amazing chef."
"he also went on a run with me this morning!" jungkook pitches in with a mouth full of omelette.
and that sets off the jealousy in jimin -- "yoongi hyung, what about me? how come you don't do anything with me so early in the morning?"
yoongi feels his eye twitch but he knows that denying jimin anything will have the poor angel in a mood all day. he'll feel left out and pout about it. "did you want to do something?"
jimin sits up, his plump lips stretching into a beautiful smile that has yoongi relaxing.
♡
"hyung! look!" jimin points out the different fruits at the outside market they're walking through. "they look so delicious, can i have one?"
yoongi walks over to the mango stand and buys one for the younger man. "here." he hands it over.
"at least try to be happy when you're out with me." jimin pouts. "i just wanted to spend time with my favorite hyung."
"don't let jin hyung hear you say that."
jimin's face goes back to a happy expression as he laughs, doubling over almost and hanging off of yoongi. "i like you most, hyung."
"thanks, jiminie." he softens a little, ignores the sleepiness and the sore muscles.
"come on, hyung. let's pick out some food for lunch before we have to head to dance practice!" he lets jimin drag him around and picks some light food for the others. "dp you think hoseokie hyung will want cucumbers or something sweet?"
yoongi thinks for a minute. "probably the cucumbers since he takes dance very seriously."
jimin nods, agreeing. "he's so strict, our seokie. thanks hyung!"
"it's what i'm here for." he responds quietly, watching jimin pick out the best looking cucumber and adding it to the basket that's in yoongi's hands.
♡
they've been practicing for about seven hours and yoongi can feel the exhaustion seeping into his bones and weighing him down but he won't let it affect his performance, if anything he works harder to hide it. tries to match each of hoseok's movements and do better.
he hates being dead weight and especially hates it when they have to stop the choreo just to show him how to do a move correctly. so, he puts the way his bones are screaming at him to the back of his mind, ignores the sandman weighing on his eyes and keeps going.
another hour in and hoseok claps his hands. "good job today guys!" he's got that heart shaped smile going even though he'd been very strict with everyone throughout practice.
"we'll see you at home!" the three maknaes run out together, up to no good. yoongi just chugs down a water bottle and wipes his forehead with a towel.
"hoseok, can you show me that one move i kept messing up on?" he hears seokjin ask.
before anyone can pull him aside, yoongi grabs his bag and makes toward the door.
"yoongi hyung!" he could pretend he didn't hear namjoon or he could turn around and see if their leader wants to go home together.
he does the latter. "what's up, joon?"
"there's a track i'm stuck on and i wanted to see if you'd come listen to it really quick before you go?" yoongi's mind tells him to say no but he's nodding before the words can come out. "awesome! let's go to my studio then!"
♡
it's almost ten at night when they finish. yoongi leads the way down before he hears the music still going in the dance studio. he wants to ignore it but namjoon leads them to the door, he pokes his head in and they see hoseok, dancing by himself.
"hoseokie, we're headed out. wanna come with us?"
hoseok pauses the music to look over with a gleaming smile, he's sweating and out of breath but speaks evenly. "not unless you all are going for some food? i'm hungry."
"sure." namjoon answers before yoongi can say anything.
and that's how he finds himself at a bbq place, cooking the meat for everyone since hoseok complained he was too tired and namjoon would just burn himself if he tried to make it.
"yoongi hyung!" he turns to a beaming hoseok. "can you feed me?"
yoongi doesn't even respond, just grabs some chop sticks and begins to feed hoseok. the three of them have an unbreakable bond because of their rap, and even though namjoon is their designated leader, as the eldest in rapline, yoongi finds himself taking care of the other two a lot. "want some, joonie?"
the leader nods, "thanks yoongi hyung!"
"let us feed you too!" hoseok takes the chopsticks and feeds yoongi, he pinches the older's cheeks when they puff out with food. "so cute, hyung!"
after they finish and their bellies are full, the check comes around. normally, they all split it but it doesn't sit right with yoongi to let his younger members pay. so he grabs the check and sets his card down. "i got it."
the two cheer and thank their hyung. "best hyung!" hoseok yells, dancing in his chair.
namjoon smiles, dimples on display. "you've worked hard all day and now you treat us, wow hyung!"
and yoongi nods. namjoon is right, he's worked hard all day on little to no sleep just to see his members, his family happy.
♡
yoongi trudges into the house, he throws his bag on the ground. he'll pick it up tomorrow. the other two rap members run ahead of him, calling out for the others.
jungkook answers first. "we're in here!"
"taehyungie is cheating!" jimin whines cutely.
taehyung laughs as a response. "i'm not cheating! i just know how to play!"
"let's join!" hoseok laughs, namjoon smiles in agreement.
yoongi takes this moment to slip down the hallway. he knocks on a door lightly and hears a soft, "come in."
"jin hyung.." he pouts, rubbing at his sleepy eyes. "i'm so tired."
jin looks up from his phone and takes note of the bags under yoongi's eyes, he takes in the way his eyes droop and his lip juts out in a pout. the man is stood at the door with his hands balled up in fists and he can tell how exasperated and worn out he is. "cmere." he waves him over.
he pulls the blanket down and pats the spot against the wall, letting yoongi slot himself in between it and jin. "thank you, jin hyung."
jin nods, he watches as yoongi curls in on himself and jin lays on his side. his back is to the door and he's facing yoongi, watches as his breathing gets even and deeper. he's fallen asleep.
there's a knock on the door and yoongi's eyes open slightly. "shhh, go back to sleep." jin runs a hand through his hair and turns his head to the door. "yes?"
the door opens enough for jungkook's head to pop in. "have you seen yoongi hyung?"
jin knows his broad shoulders are covering up the tiny body curled into him so he shakes his head and makes a small noise. "not since practice, sorry."
"oh, okay. thanks hyung!" and the door shuts quietly.
"jin hyung.." yoongi mumbles in his sleep, he clutches jin's t-shirt in his hand as he scoots closer to the eldest member, seeking his warmth. he mumbles something unintelligible but jin understands.
"i love you too, little yoongi. goodnight."
