Work Text:
it was a rainy saturday, and as usual, whenever jimin had a plan that had to be canceled because of rain, he would bother the kim-min household and play with jeongguk while the other two cleaned.
jeongguk, being the resident good boy, insisted he wanted to help out as he usually did. yoongi turned the tv on to a kids show channel as background noise while jeongguk tidied up around the living room, wiping dust from the coffee table and struggling with the sofa cushion to get them lined up neatly.
jimin helped by picking jeongguk up and helping him reach things he couldn't reach. the baby would turn to look at him expectantly and point at where he needed to go whenever he needed help.
jeongguk was just finishing with wiping the coffee table when he paused and stood in front of it. he put the cloth wipe down on the table, and jimin watched curiously as jeongguk stood still, with arms out and palms facing up.
"what is it, ggukie?" he asked. "do you want something?"
jeongguk squealed happily, moving his arms up and down.
"um, you want to juggle?" jimin hazarded a guess.
"what is it?" yoongi asked as walked over from the kitchen to check up on them.
"ah, hyung, ggukie is waving his arms but i don't know what that means," jimin said, motioning at jeongguk who was still waving his arms cheerily.
"oh, that," yoongi said in amusement. "he's dancing."
jimin blinked. he looked over at jeongguk, back at yoongi, back at jeongguk, then narrowed his eyes at yoongi.
"i'm not pulling your leg," yoongi said as he laughed, and seokjin also joined them as he got nosy and wanted to know what was going on.
"oh, ggukie is dancing to macarena again?" seokjin asked.
"macarena???" jimin asked, mind nearly blown.
"yeah, ggukie likes dancing, don't you, baby?" yoongi asked teasingly as he poked jeongguk's cheek.
jeongguk squealed and giggled, and nodded happily. seokjin hummed the tune of chicken dance, and jeongguk giggled again before he folded his arms on his side and flapped them, then clapped.
"ahh..." jimin sighed. now that he thought about it, there was a tune similar to macarena playing from the kids' show.
after they finished the impromptu dance session, seokjin and yoongi went back to cleaning. jeongguk kept his books and toys tidy every day, so after wiping the table and tidying the sofa, he went to help bring dirty clothes from the bathroom to the laundry.
as they were nearing the laundry, they saw seokjin who was moving the first load from the washing machine to the dryer while humming the tune of chicken dance.
"oh!" jeongguk exclaimed.
"what is it, ggukie?" jimin asked.
instead of answering, jeongguk put the clothes down on the floor next to him, and began dancing again.
