Chapter Text
"He's my son." Kim Seokjin whispered over to his husband when he first saw the little boy. Kim Namjoon nodded and smiled, continuing to stare at the small boy in the woman's arms. He's our son, Kim Yoongi.
Although some people might not think this, Seokjin thought he had a perfect family. Namjoon couldn't agree more.
The young couple had spent years thinking about adoption and up until last year, they decided that they were finally ready. It took a while but they were finally introduced to Yoongi half way through their adoption process. Although the adoption services warned that he might be hard to handle since Yoongi had dealt with trauma before, Seokjin didn't care. He had already fallen in love with the four year old already.
Time passed and the adoption process was finally completed and they brought the small four year old home. Yoongi wasn't exactly settled quick into the household. Yoongi was actually very formal for a boy his age and for some reason seemed scared with everything he did. The boy would barely speak (probably because he was scared he might say the wrong thing), was always calm, tried to stay away from trouble, and such an independent child.
It's not like Namjoon and Seokjin weren't warned about the situation, they one hundred percent knew Yoongi was like this.
But they still loved the boy to pieces.
Just the presence of the adorable boy warmed their heart. He was such a sweet kid and the new parents' mission was now to make Yoongi more open to them and act freely, like any other toddler would. Both Namjoon and Jin didn't want to pressure the boy but one of their main priorities is to make Yoongi finally call them Appa and Dad.
During the three months Yoongi has been living with them, it's only been Namjoon hyung and Jin hyung. The couple understood Yoongi might not be comfortable to call them 'dad' the second he moved in but they always hoped one day the quiet boy would open up to them more. They just didn't know it was going to be like this.
"Joonie." Jin whispered into his husband's ear. His husband only made a small grunt sound, still asleep under the soft covers of his bed. Jin rolled his eyes and started shaking him.
"Joonie. Wake up." Jin whispered louder. Namjoon shifted a little, slowly getting sucked out of his beautiful dream with all the shaking of the bed.
"Hmm? Yeah? What's wrong?" Namjoon finally said, turning around to his side, rubbing the sleep away from his eyes so he can see Jin.
"I think I heard noises and someone moving around the halls outside. Do you think someone broke into the house? Or do you think it's Yoongi? What if something's wrong? Oh god worse, what if he's hurt." Jin started asking faster, slipping into parent panic mode when thousands of reasons came flying through his mind. Namjoon quickly calmed him down.
"Calm down Jinnie. I'm sure everything's fine. If someone broke in, the police would be here any second because of the alarms. And Yoongi is probably fine too, he loves to sleep. But if you want I can go check on hi- " Namjoon stopped when they heard a crashing noise somewhere outside of their door in the hallway. Then both of the couple's heart stopped when they immediately heard loud sobs coming a second later.
You would think Seokjin, who was already in parent panic mode, would run to the door first, but by the time Jin got there, Namjoon had zoomed right passed him.
Both fathers heard the crying more clearer outside of their room and Jin spotted the cause of it at his right, halfway through the hallway.
"Yoongi-yah. What's wrong baby? What happened? Please stop crying." Namjoon quickly picked up and rocked the sobbing boy close to his chest. Yoongi had been crying on the floor, rubbing his eyes when the couple approached him. Jin quickly spotted that before his husband had picked up Yoongi, his ankle had been tangled with the phone cord, which was also now on the floor. That explains the crash.
"Let go of me!" Yoongi screamed, kicking his feet, "Don't take me away! Don't take me away from Appa and Daddy! I like it here! Don't take me away! Don't hurt me!" Yoongi sobbed and squirmed harder in Namjoon's arms. Jin and Namjoon widened their eyes when they couldn't believe what Yoongi had called them. Jin might have questioned it but first, he honestly felt bad for his husband. The small boy was kicking and hitting Namjoon from face to chest as he tried struggling away.
"Yoongi!" Jin tried getting the boy's attention, "Your safe! No one's taking you away! Your safe. Now please stop Yoongi-yah. Your hurting- daddy." Jin tried using the word. Jin's voice may have helped because Yoongi stopped squirming around. Namjoon was still rocking him and Yoongi had his head perched on Namjoon's shoulder. Jin was behind Namjoon so he saw when Yoongi finally opened his eyes. Jin could tell he had been crying before the whole accident by the deep red color in both of his eyes. Yoongi blinked a few times and it seemed like he was barely waking up for the first time. He hugged Namjoon's neck tight with both arms.
"I-I'm sorry Daddy. A-and Appa." Yoongi finally hiccuped. Yoongi's eyes widened a second later as if he just catched himself saying something wrong.
"I- I mean hyungs! I-I'm sorry!" Yoongi started crying again and gave Namjoon a death grip, as if he were to let go any second.
"Shh Yoongi-yah. It's okay. You can call us Daddy and Appa if you want. We actually love it when you call us that." Jin whispered as he rubbed the boy's back. Yoongi looked up a little from where he was hiding in Namjoon's shoulder.
"R-Really?" Yoongi sniffed, crying died down. Namjoon smiled as he continued rocking him.
"Of course. You can call us anything you want....but there's only one thing you need to do first." Namjoon quietly added. Jin quickly snapped his head up and shot his husband a look that said 'what are you doing Namjoon, why are you going to ruin this for us'
Yoongi lifted his head off Namjoon's so he was now having eye and eye contact with him.
"What were you sorry for?"
"Huh?" Yoongi asked.
"After you stopped yelling, you immediately apologized. Why were you sorry?" Namjoon gently asked. Yoongi looked down to the ground.
"F-For waking you and appa up. I'm sorry! Don't be mad. Please don't take me back! I promise to be good!" Yoongi rubbed his eyes and it was breaking Jin's heart how it looked like he might cry again. Jin was thinking that he probably has never seen Yoongi cry like this before and it was a heart wrenching sight to see. Jin took Yoongi from Namjoon and hugged him close to his chest.
"Yoongi, you never have to be sorry. And you never have to worried, or scared, or anything like that because you think we're going to send you back. We will never." Jin whispered to Yoongi.
"Plus, your too cute for us to send back, even if we're forced too. We're too selfish to give you away." Namjoon smiled and tapped on Yoongi's nose, earning a small tiny giggle in return.
"But there's only one rule you always have to follow around here, okay Yoongi?" Jin said to the boy. Yoongi looked up at him in wonder.
"Always come to appa or daddy if you ever need anything Yoongi. Okay? And I mean anything." Jin said. Yoongi rapidly nodded his head up and down, earning a smile from the couple.
"Okay, it's about three in the morning now. I think we should all go back to bed, huh?" Jin asked Yoongi, who was already mid way yawning. Jin smiled. Both parents started heading towards Yoongi's room when Jin felt the body in his arms stiffen. Namjoon noticed it too.
"Hyu- I mean- appa and daddy. I- don't want to go to my room." Yoongi said barely above a whisper. Jin and Namjoon exchanged a worried glance. Yoongi noticed.
"I'm sorry!" Yoongi automatically exclaimed. "I- I'll sleep in my room." He said in panic. Yoongi didn't want his appa and daddy to think he was ungrateful. What if they get annoyed and send him back?
"No! No Yoongi it's fine! Daddy and I were just worried in why you don't want to sleep in your room." Jin answered. Yoongi seemed more relax and comfortably laid his head on Jin's chest.
"B-Because I'm scared I'll get another nightmare that appa and daddy won't be there." Yoongi finally answered quietly. Yoongi was already falling deep into sleep that he barely felt himself being put down on Namjoon and Jin's bed, right between the couple. Jin was stroking the boy's hair while Namjoon hugged him tightly against his body, arm around the boy's waste. Namjoon kissed the boy's forehead.
"You'll never have to worry about that baby." Jin whispered. Yoongi's breathing was slowly relaxing. "Yeah, because as long as you have your appa and daddy, we'll never leave you alone. We're our prefect family." Namjoon quietly finished. Yoongi's breathing finally evened out, completely asleep. Namjoon soon after did the same. Seokjin stared at his two love of his life's and smiled.
Yep, Seokjin thought, This is my perfect family.
