Part : 16

Time skip to night,

Night came quickly and Everyone reached Danish's resort for the grand party of the year, Guards stood everywhere in the resort as three mafia kings were colliding again

People immediately moved aside seeing Kim brothers coming inside, Not because of fear alone but respect

And When everyone came inside, Jimin and Taehyung entered together while  observing everything

Jimin : I’m telling you! That Danish definitely has some issue with Suga hyung! *scoffed* Like why does he only annoy Suga hyung? But respects Jin hyung properly!

Taehyung : *nodded* exactly! And also I heard he’s Aria noona’s best friend But he’s literally an Italian mafia king! *scoffed*

Jimin : if he's that much powerful Then why didn’t she marry him instead? *confused*

Taehyung : That’s what I’m saying! *confused*

The two looked at each other in confusion ad suddenly Taehyung’s eyes landed somewhere near the corner balcony, Aria stood there alone with a drink in her hand while looking outside quietly, A slow smirk appeared on Taehyung’s face and he grabbed Jimin's hand

Taehyung : Let’s ask her! *smirk*

Jimin : *shook his head* W-what? No! Suga hyung won’t like that--

Taehyung : He’s not even here! *annoyed* Come on!

Jimin : T-Tae--

He didn't complete and Taehyung already dragged him across the hall

Meanwhile,

Near the bar,

Suga stood near counter with Sunho beside him as he was quietly explaining something about a shipment deal while Suga lazily sipped his drink, barely listening his words

Suddenly two familiar figures approached from the side but Not directly, Just close enough like predators circling before attack

Danish picked up a glass from the waiter and spoke casually to Guwon loud enough for Suga to hear

Danish : You know? Gowon! I don’t think it’s difficult for a Korean mafia king to know who’s related to his wife! *smirk*

Guwon : *chuckled* True. We’re a little famous after all!

Sunho immediately looked at them and suga slowly turned his head toward them, unexpectedly He smirked, resting hands in pocket

Suga : Obviously I know! Brother in Laws! *sarcastic*

He leaned slightly against the counter, and smiled

Suga : In fact you two are the reason I even agreed to this marriage! *smirk*

Guwon and Danish exchanged a quick glance and Guwon scoffed softly

Guwon : You seriously think marrying my sister willingly makes us your people now? *chuckled* In your dreams!

Suga : *chuckled* Not willingly! *smirk* But people can be forced!

Sunho glanced between them because the temperature around them suddenly dropped and Guwon’s jaw tightened immediately, Within a second he stepped forward aggressively, almost grabbing Suga's collar and Sunho took out his gun but Danish stopped Guwon quickly by the arm

Danish : Relax! Guwon! *cold*

He just stared at Suga's playful smile as People around the hall had started noticing their conversations, Everyone knew one thing that If these three fought, The entire party would turn into a war zone

Danish slowly smiled again like nothing happened and slid his hand in pockets

Danish : You’ll force us? *laughed* Try us! *cold*

Danish stepped closer, lowering his voice just enough and smirked

Danish : Because you still don’t know anything about our Aria!

Guwon folded his arms proudly while Danish continued

Danish : The girl you married? *chuckled* She’s an atom bomb! You think she’s quiet because she’s weak? *laughed*

Guwon : Naah bro! She's my sister! If She's quiet then there's a thing which stopped her!Otherwise--

Danish : Otherwise she will eat thousands of you in a minute! *smirk* just try to control her and she'll make you regret! *cold*

Suga scoffed and took one step closer enough that only Danish could properly hear him, Guwon narrowed his eyes and Suga leaned slightly near Danish’s ear

Suga : I already tried, bro! *smirk* And you know what? She didn’t even stay strong for one minute! *chuckled*

Guwon looked confused while Danish’s expression hardened slowly

Suga : And if you’re calling her a warrior--

He tapped Danish’s shoulder lightly and looked at Guwon

Suga : Then I’m sorry, but maybe you people need more practice! *smirk*

Sunho almost choked on air because now, This wasn’t normal teasing anymore, This was direct provocation, Suga turned casually like the conversation was over but after taking a few steps, He stopped again and looked back over his shoulder

Suga : And one more thing! *cold*

Both Danish and Guwon stared at him coldly when Suga turned to them

Suga : I wasn’t the first one to agree to this marriage! *cold* That was your sister And your friend! So don’t even think about blackmailing me using her! *deadpan* Because if things go wrong… your sister loses more than me!

Suga slowly adjusted his cufflinks and watch before speaking one last time and Danish just stared at Him

Suga : For now, you’re not in Australia or Italy, This is my place! *cold* and the only reason you’re standing here alive is because I allowed it!

He looked between them and without waiting for an answer, He walked away and Sunho immediately followed behind him like his survival depended on it

Guwon scoffed first and finished his drink aggressively but Danish only rolled his eyes while staring at Suga disappearing into the crowd

Danish : *scoffed* I told Aria not to do this! *gritted his teeth* I. Told. Her.! *angry*

He aggressively turned to Guwon who sighed quietly beside him

Guwon : She likes him, Danish! *sighed* We can’t do anything!

He closed his eyes drinking his alcohol and That made Danish turn sharply toward him

Danish : What exactly is in him? *angry*

His voice carried actual frustration now and Guwon stayed silent

Danish : Huh? Tell me what's so special in him? One demand from him and she left our business! *angry* Does he even worth it? And This is how our mafia works now? *scoffed* We build empires together for years and suddenly one man appears and she walks away from everything! *cold*

His grip tightened around the glass and For the first time, There was genuine disappointment in his voice

Danish : I never thought our Aria would become like this! *gritted his teeth* She was never emotional and now Love made her blind!

He looked toward the crowd where Aria stood, laughing at something Taehyung said, Danish looked away and his fist tightened as That annoyed him more

Danish : She just changed herself for that Suga! *scoffed* he doesn’t even know it! And WE CAN'T EVEN TELL HIM--

Guwon : Maybe she got tired of our world! *Rolled his eyes*

Danish looked at him in disbelief and That sentence made Danish quiet for a second but only for a second and then he looked away coldly again

Danish : I don't think so! *angry* Everything was going perfect!? We were perfect? until...

He stopped for a while and drank aggressively before closing his eyes

Danish : Until that mission! *angry* I swear.... *gritted teeth* I should never have sent her on that mission! *angry*

Guwon : *sighed* Danish--

Danish : No, seriously! If she never went there...then she wouldn’t have seen him! She wouldn’t have liked him And she definitely wouldn’t be married to him today! *tightened his fists*

Guwon stayed quiet and Danish laughed bitterly

Danish : I was supposed to go that day, not her!

The memory clearly irritated him now but Guwon immediately looked around carefully before lowering his voice

Guwon : Stop talking like that! danish! No one knows about this so don’t use words that make people suspicious! *cold* This is an arranged marriage and That’s all! Don’t make things complicated! *angry*

Danish looked away angrily while rubbing his forehead and looked back to Guwon

Danish : But she changed because of him! What about that? *angry* Do you really think our Aria could do things like this---

Guwon : *crossed his arms* Aria made her own decision! Danish! It's her choice! *cold* She left our business for him! She chose peace for herself--

Danish : *scoffed* Peace? That man doesn’t even like her! *angry* We literally threw her into a cage she walked into blindly because she liked one man!

Guwon : *sighed* You’re overreacting! Danish! Please--

Danish : No, I’m realistic! *cold*

He looked toward the hall again where Suga stood talking coldly with some mafia leaders and Danish's blood boiled in his body

Danish : He doesn’t even smile around her! My Aria doesn't deserve this! *worried*

Guwon lightly tapped his shoulder and Danish looked away

Guwon : Relax! Danish! You know how Aria works! If she really likes him…then she’ll definitely make him fall for her! Don't worry--

Danish : I don't care! *cold*

He rolled his eyes aggressively and pushed Guwon’s hand off his shoulder, without another word, He walked away angrily into the crowd, and Guwon watched him leave

Guwon : What did you do? Aria! *sighed* I hope you really think something good for yourself!

On the other side,

Aria looked completely done explaining herself to Taehyung and Jimin and then she sighed while folding her arms

Aria : For the last time now! There's absolutely nothing between me and Danish! *annoyed*

Taehyung and Jimin stared at her suspiciously and Aria rolled her eyes

Taehyung : But he looks like he wants to fight Suga hyung every five minutes! *confused*

Aria : That’s his hobby! *rolled her eyes*

Jimin coughed to hide his laugh and Taehyung looked confused

Aria : Danish and I were just partners in business!And we were good friends nothing else! *angry*

Jimin : We don't trust you--

Aria grabbed a cushion from the nearby couch and smacked him with it

Aria : Then don't! *annoyed*

Taehyung  burst out laughing immediately while Jimin clutched his chest dramatically

Jimin : Why do you choose Violence? *gasped*

Aria : Because You two ask too many questions! *annoyed*

Jimin : Okay one last question! why did you marry Suga hyung only? *annoyed*

Aria became quieter for a second, Then she shrugged lightly

Aria : Dad wanted this marriage, I told you! *smile*

It sounded simple but Taehyung and Jimin exchanged looks because somehow, They still didn’t fully believe that was the whole reason, Aria noticed immediately and sighed again

Aria : You boys watch too many dramas! *annoyed*

Jimin rubbed the back of his neck awkwardly and smiled

Jimin : No, it’s just... Danish acts weird!

Aria glanced toward the other side of the hall where Danish was drink and A small helpless smile appeared on her face

Aria : He’s just overprotective! Nothing else!

She looked down and Taehyung didn't like that, he turned to Jimin and then turned to Aria back

Taehyung : Hyungs will eat with their business partners and Jin hyung is with noona! We shouldn't wait! Let's take dinner together! *smile*

Jimin : Or you wanna go to Danish? *teasing*

Aria : Hey! Look--

Jimin : Okay sorry! *laughed* Let's eat!

He went first and Taehyung and Aria followed him

At that time,

Unlike the others laughing around the food section,  Aesha and Jin sat in one corner, looking around the guests, Aesha occasionally waved at some familiar business friends passing by while Jin stayed silent when Aesha suddenly turned to him

Aesha : My all friends are here! Will you please meet them? *soft*

Jin : W-what? *cleared his throat* Oh okay! Obviously! We're married! *nervously*

Aesha looked at his confused face and chuckled

Aesha : Okay leave it! Some other day--

Jin : No! It's okay I'm ready--

He didn't complete the Sentence and he got Jungkook's call, he narrowed his eyes and picked the call

Jin : Yes Jk! What happened? *worried*

Jungkook : Nothing! Hyung! I was just asking where's ketchup bottle? *confused*

Jin : *rolled his eyes* I cooked dinner for you! Why do you want that? *angry*

Jungkook : Yaah! I don't want that! Your princess wants! *sarcastic* She's insisting!

Jin : Okay! Okay! It's in refrigerator! But don't give her too much! One half spoon is enough!

Jungkook : Okay! Enjoy! Bye--

Jin : No! Listen! Both of you sleep downstairs tonight! *cold*

Jungkook  : What? Why? *annoyed*

Jin : Because no one’s home there! And guards can't hear your voice on 1st floor! *angry* So sleep there and lock the doors properly--

Jungkook : *scoffed* We’re not babies!

Jin : Still! And no gaming till late night! *cold* understand? Jk?

Jungkook : O-oh I think Battery low bye!

The call disconnected and Jin stared at his phone in disbelief, Aesha laughed softly beside him and Jin sighed tiredly while putting his phone down

Aesha : Did he just cut your call? *chuckled*

Jin : That boy fears nothing! *annoyed*

Aesha smiled while looking at him as He looked exhausted, Constantly thinking about his every siblings, and Aesha just stared at his face and suddenly he turned to her

Jin : By the way  you want something? You wanna eat? *soft*

Jin asked politely after noticing her staring and Aesha shook her head immediately

Aesha : No I don't want anything! *nervously*

Jin : *nodded* Sorry actually! I didn't expect all of these dramas in one day! And you weren't supposed to see our fight on the first day! My other brothers aren't that aggressive it's just Suga--

Aesha : How do you manage all this? *soft*

Jin looked at her confused and she gestured around slightly

Aesha : I mean why do you do so much honestly? *nervously* don't mind but Your brothers are grown up enough to handle themselves, Why do you care this much?

For a moment, Jin simply looked down at the glass in his hand, Then he smiled tiredly

Jin : Why do I care this much? *chuckled* Umm you remember You were confused before, about why I refused to let you work!

Aesha nodded slowly and He leaned back slightly

Jin : This is the reason! I already know I can’t manage both properly So I always thought my wife would handle the home while I focused on business! *smile* I raised them this way and Now they’re used to me!

His voice stayed calm Like he had accepted this role years ago and Aesha looked at him for a few seconds before sighing quietly and leaning back too

Aesha : Don’t mind but I think Your brothers are attached to your care because you gave it for years! You naturally take care of people but what about you? What about your dreams and happiness? *soft*

Jin didn’t answer immediately but looked around the party at his brothers, At the family he practically raised himself, and He wondered what life would’ve looked like if someone had taken care of him too

Jin : *shook his head* It's useless! My happiness is my brothers--

Aesha : Oh come on! Don't lie to yourself! I don't think someone dreamed of babysitting when he was young! *chuckled*

Jin : *smile* Shut up! You sound exactly like Suga you know!

Aesha : *laughed* What? Really?

Jin : *nodded* Yes! He’s been saying similar things for years! And he used to fight with me over this and complaining like, "Hyung please don't ruin our habits" *chuckled* He seriously hated seeing me stuck at home while handling company work too!

Aesha : *smile* Then maybe he was right!

Jin : *chuckled* see? I told you! You both are same! *shook his head*

Aesha : *shook her head* It's not like that! I'm the eldest too but I never did these things for Aria! And she never asks me too! *chuckled*

Jin : Because you've parents with You! Aesha! *sad smile* and my brothers? They raised under me! *smile*

He looked toward the other side of the hall where Taehyung and Jimin were fighting over desserts dramatically and shook his head

Aesha : well! I won't say anything about that! But What if someday you’re not there? *soft*

That made Jin finally look at her properly and She continued softly looking at him

Aesha : Just tell me honestly what will they do? *soft*

For the first time tonight Jin had no immediate answer because The question hit directly, he could imagine their empty second house, Cold dining tables, Namjoon working late nights alone, Taehyung eating random instant food because nobody cooked properly, Suga locking himself in his office for days, Jhope doing overtime, Jimin staying in clubs, Jungkook and Y/n shattered between them, None of them checking on each other, None of them sitting together, Not because they hated each other but because they won't have  Jin to take care of them

And if Jin kept doing everything for them now,Wouldn’t they depend on him forever?

He gulped hard and looked away but Aesha immediately noticed his tensed eyes , she sighed and patted on his head got his attention instantly

Aesha : You raised them well! Big brother! *Smile* don't think too much!

Jin : *soft smile* Thank you! But I think you're right! May be I should stop---

Aesha : No! *shook her head* You're connected to them! Jin! Never stop taking care of them--

Jin :But Let's try for one day if they can survive! I really wanna know what happens without me! *sad smile*

Aesha : You really wanna do that? *confused*

Jin : Obviously! They always wanted freedom! Then let me give them! *soft*

His eyes slowly lowered again as thoughts kept running through his mind, Maybe he really should test them not because he wanted distance but because he wanted to know if his brothers could survive properly without him

Could they remember meals themselves? Could they handle home together? Could they live like actual adults? Or had Jin unknowingly made himself necessary for everything?

He sighed looking at his brothers and memories started replaying in his head

Suga : Stop advising me all the time, hyung! *angry* I can do things my own way!

Jhope : Hyyung seriously! Never reschedule my meetings without asking me first. I can work late nights if I want! Don't worry too much about me! *annoyed*

Taehyung : Hyung! How can you decide for me? *angry* I'm not weak okay? I’ll decide if I want to continue mafia training or not! Don't babysit me all the time!

Jimin : Yaahh! Hyung! please don’t touch my stuff! *annoyed* please stop opening my drawers without permission! I'll clean it by my way!

Rm : Hyung? *nervously* I can handle things myself, why do you always remind me about every stuff! If you keep reminding me everything like this , I’ll actually forget how to do them alone! Please don't interfere too much!

Jungkook : HYUNG! *whined* You locked the gaming room again?! You gifted me those games yourself! And now you're doing this! What do you really want? I'll study at my time! *annoyed*

Y/n : *whined* Oppaaa! Why do you keep staring at me while I eat? Please stop.. I can eat myself! Go away! Please! *annoyed*

Jin slowly lowered his eyes as Every memory carried the same meaning, Maybe He really crossed limits without realizing, For years, he only knew one role and that's Take care, Even when nobody asked anymore

A deep breath escaped his lips and His eyes became teary but he instantly stood up, Aesha looked at him and stood too

Aesha : What happened? *confused*

But Jin avoided her worried eyes and fixed his coat calmly

Jin : I have some work! *soft* Will you please go home with Jimin?

Aesha : *nodded* yes but what happened? Did I… say something wrong? Sorry--

Jin : No! *shook his head* Maybe you said the right thing! *smile*

Jin gave a small polite smile before glancing toward Jimin and Taehyung laughing near the dessert section

Jin : Jimin! *soft*

Both younger brothers turned immediately and Jimin walked closer first

Jimin : yes hyung? *smile*

Jin : Keep Aesha safe and drop her home later! I've work!

Jimin nodded naturally and he walked away, Aesha watched his back quietly as he disappeared through the crowd and Taehyung looked between the entrance and Aesha

Taehyung : Did something happen? *confused*

Aesha forced a small smile and shook her head as No but inside She felt guilty thinking maybe Her words accidentally touched wounds Jin had been hiding for years

Time skip to home,

Hours passed, One, Then two, Then almost four hours passed and  Jin still wasn’t home, Aesha was sitting on the bed with worry written all over her face, she felt regret after telling Jin those harsh words that he didn't want to listen

She glanced at the watch one last time and left the room, walking directly to Suga's room

She hesitated for a second and Then knocked softly, A few moments later, the door opened and Aria stood there wearing oversized sleep clothes

Aria : Unnie? *sleepy* what's wrong? Why are you here at this time--

Aesha : *shook her head* Where’s Suga? *worried*

Aria looked confused for a second before pointing toward the balcony

Aria : He slept there! *sleepy*

Aesha nodded quickly and walked inside, Suga was actually asleep on the outdoor couch with one arm resting over his eyes, A half-empty wine glass sat nearby and Aesha hesitated before softly calling

Aesha : Suga? *soft*

He didn't listen and She stepped closer carefully

Aesha : S-suga? *soft*

This time he moved slightly before slowly opening his eyes with visible irritation

Suga : What? *cold*

Aesha : J-jin! He's still not home! *worried*

Suga tilted his head and immediately woke him properly, His arm dropped from his eyes and he sat up slowly

Suga : What time is it? *confused*

Aesha : Almost three! *worried* Is he always doing this?

Suga looked at her worried face and looked away because no matter how angry or stressed Jin got, He always returned home before late night

Aesha noticed his expression changing and grew more nervous

Aesha : You think something happened? Huh?

Suga : No! *cold*

He grabbed his phone from the table and dialed Jin immediately and Aesha’s nervousness increased instantly

Aesha : He didn’t pick? *worried*

Suga : He's probably busy! *cold* you sleep! I'll talk to him!

Aesha : But--

He didn't listen and grabbed his coat immediately, walking towards the door, his eyes were dark because Jin never ignored repeated calls from family and that makes him worried

He grabbed the Car keys from living room and The moment he entered the garage, He froze slightly, Taehyung was already there beside his bike, helmet in hand like he had just returned from somewhere

Taehyung  : Hyung? What happened? *confused**

Suga rolled his eyes, ignoring him he walked straight toward the black car and unlocked it but Taehyung grabbed the door

Taehyung: You're not wearing shoes! Hyung! *cold* What happened? Tell me!

Suga looked at him and looked down seeing his naked feet, he just sighed

Suga : Jin hyung still isn’t home! *cold*

Taehyung : At this hour? But Jin Hyung--

Suga : Never stays out late night! I know! That's why I'm worried!

Taehyung looked at him and told him to wait, he went inside the house and came in a minute

Taehyung : This is Y/n’s mobile! It’s connected with Jin hyung’s mobile right?

Suga nodded and grabbed the mobile, Taehyung also threw his helmet aside and got inside the car

Taehyung : I’m coming too! *cold*

Suga didn’t argue this time and The whole drive stayed silent except for the GPS voice

Taehyung kept checking the moving location nervously while Syga drove faster towards the location

After a  minute, Suga stopped his car in front of one glowing building and looked at Taehyung

Taehyung : A bar? *confused*

Suga scoffed immediately and looked at the place again with disbelief

Suga : This is literally the worst bar in our area! Why did he be here--

Taehyung : Maybe because nobody would recognize him here!

Suga looked at him briefly and Taehyung sighed

Taehyung : Hyung! Every famous club in this city somehow connects to Jimin! Except this one and That Jin hyung knows!

That actually made sense to Suga and he parked the car roughly

They both stepped out and The area itself looked cheap compared to places they usually visited, Suga already looked annoyed and rested hands in pocket

Suga : This doesn’t suit him at all! *annoyed*

Taehyung quietly agreed, and looked away but froze completely, as in the center VIP section, Jin was drunk, A half-open black shirt hung loosely on him while several empty bottles covered the table

And worse, Two strippers sat beside him laughing closely while one rested against his shoulder

Taehyung’s jaw literally dropped and suga blinked once slowly like his brain stopped processing

Because this scene made absolutely no sense, Kim seokjin? Their brother? The same man who lectured everyone about discipline? The same man who got angry when Jimin flirted too much? The same man who barely even looked at women? That Seokjin? Taehyung looked at Suga in horror

Taehyung : That’s not our hyung! *gulped*

Suga stayed silent for a few seconds as He also felt like this was some hallucination, suddenly one of the women laughed loudly and touched Jin’s chest and Jin didn’t even react, He just sat there with tired eyes while drinking another glass

Suga gritted his teeth and finally started walking toward him, The closer they got, the more obvious it became, Jin wasn’t enjoying this but sitting like he came there just to shut his mind off

One of the women noticed suga and Taehyung approaching first, but before she could say anything, Suga coldly placed a thick bundle of cash on the table

Suga : Leave! *cold*

Both women exchanged looks before standing up without argument and Taehyung still looked traumatized, The moment Jin noticed the two familiar figures standing there, His sleepy eyes narrowed slightly and he laughed quietly

Jin : Oh my baby brothers! *chuckled*

Suga grabbed the glass from Jin’s hand and glared at Jin

Suga : Enough! *angry* Stand up come on!

Jin ignored him completely and tried reaching for another bottle but Suga immediately moved it away too

Suga : Don't you listen what I say? Hyung! We’re leaving! Come on! *angry*

He tried to hold his hand but Jin crossed his arms stubbornly and looked away

Jin : No! *cold* I'm not coming--

Suga : This isn't optional! *angry* stand up I said!

Suga grabbed his wrist and Jin dramatically pulled his hand back

Jin : Don’t control me!  *angry*

Taehyung suddenly gasped loudly

Taehyung :Oh my god! *shocked*

Suga : What happened? *cold*

Taehyung : He became Suga hyung! I mean it's your dialogue! Don't control me! *chuckled*

Suga glared at Taehyung and he gulped hard, holding Jin tightly, he somehow managed to drag Jin away

He was resisting so Suga held his hand tightly and Jin suddenly stopped walking , Suga looked at him confused and He grabbed suga face, kissing his cheek loudly

Taehyung froze and his grip on Jin's hand loosened, He blinked his eyes and Suga froze the hardest, immediately letting go of jin like he got electrocuted

Suga : YAHHHH! HYUNG! *embarrassed*

Taehyung made the biggest disgusted face ever and gulped

Taehyung : I-I saw that with my own eyes! *shocked* I-i wouldn't forget this now!

The second Suga left him, Jin escaped and Straight went toward the karaoke stage, The microphone made a loud beep sound and Taehyung immediately covered his ears in annoyance

Jin grabbed the mic again with full confidence and Suga rubbed his forehead aggressively

Jin : Hey Young people! *drunk*

Jin pointed dramatically in the air and Suga just scoffed, crossing his arms

Jin : NEVER. EVER. IN THE LIFE, RAISE SIX BROTHERS! NEVER! *drunk* They are headache! Constant headache! *drunk*

Suga : *scoffed* Did we tell you to raise? *rolled his eyes*

Then Jin started counting on his fingers

Jin : One forgets to eat while reading books all day! *drunk*

Taehyung : While reading? *confused* Ohhh Namjoon hyung! *smirk*

He crossed his arms proudly like he solved a mystery and Jin continued immediately.

Jin : One always flirts and does hook-ups! *drunk*

Taehyung : *scoffed* Jimin hyung! I know! *proudly*

Jin : One always complains about everything! Always judging me! *drunk*

Taehyung : *nodded wisely* Hobi hyung!

Jin : One always behaves like a baby! Hyung this! Hyung that! *drunk*

Taehyung : Jk! Really!

Jin : One always fights and wants to do things we don’t like! Always resisting! *drunk*

Taehyung : *blinked* always fighting? Suga hyung--

Suga : That’s you! Idiot! *angry*

Taehyung immediately cleared his throat and Jin continued proudly

Jin : One always sleeps for hours! *drunk*

Taehyung pointed instantly and smirked

Taehyung : And it's you! *chuckled*

Jin : One always becomes rude! *drunk*

Taehyung : Still Suga hyung! *nodded*

Jin : One behaves like a divorced uncle! *drunk*

Taehyung : Still Suga hyung--

Suga : HEY! SHUT UP AND BRING HIM HERE! *Angry*

Taehyung: *Gulped* S-sorry! Hyung!

He turned to Jin and Meanwhile Jin kept talking into the microphone peacefully

Jin : And one tiny one...My princess! *drunk*

Taehyung : *smile* Y/n!

Jin : She acts cute but secretly controls everyone! *drunk*

Suga : *nodded* Well! That’s true!

Jin : he says ‘oppaaa’ and suddenly my bank account disappears! *drunk*

Suga rolled his eyes and finally lost patience completely, He walked straight to the stage, grabbed Jin by the back of his coat and started dragging him away

Suga : Enough is Enough! *cold*

Time skip to home,

In Jin & Aesha's room,

Suga and Taehyung practically threw him onto the bed and Jin bounced slightly before spreading both arms dramatically across the bed, fell asleep

Taehyung stared at him in disbelief and Suga fixed his sleeves tiredly

Taehyung : Finally! *annoyed*

Aesha : I-is he drunk? *shocked*

She stood near the couch quietly watching them but honestly She still looked worried, Taehyung noticed immediately and awkwardly rubbed the back of his neck

Taehyung : Don’t mind him too much, he will become normal by morning! *nervously* And please don’t believe anything bad he says about us!

Aesha blinked slightly and Taehyung quickly started backing away toward the door

Now only Suga and Aesha remained in the quiet room, Suga llooked once at Jin sleeping carelessly on the bed and Then at Aesha

Suga : What happened before he left? *cold* He never drinks alone!

Aesha looked slightly surprised but Suga kept his tone calm

Suga : You both we're talking alone in the party and then he left! What did you tell him? *cold*

Aesha slowly looked down, remembering the entire conversation from the party about responsibility and About brothers, About Jin carrying everyone alone, She opened her mouth softly and Suga looked away

Aesha : H-He was thinking--

Suga : Leave it! It’s your personal conversation! I don’t want to know!

Aesha : Huh? No! It's not personal--

Suga : But still you're husband wife! I don't wanna know! *cold*

That answer surprised her more because she expected him to ask further, Instead, Suga simply turned toward the door

Suga : His shirt is wet! Will you change it or should I? *cold*

Aesha : *shook her head* I'll do it! Don't worry!

Suga nodded once and quietly left the room, The door closed behind him and Aesha slowly walked toward the bed looking at Jin properly for the first time tonight

Aesha came near Jin and carefully helped Jin sit up slightly, Jin only mumbled something impossible to understand and Aesha sighed

Honestly, Handling drunk Kim Seokjin was harder than expected, His wet shirt kept getting stuck while he half-slept through everything, Finally after struggling for several minutes, she managed to remove the shirt and quickly grabbed another one from the wardrobe

But the moment she leaned closer to help him wear it, She froze as His face was suddenly very close to hers, Even in sleep, his features looked soft and handsome, Aesha’s fingers paused near his collar for a second and annoyingly, Her heart actually skipped, Butterflies rushed through her stomach unexpectedly and She immediately looked away nervously

Aesha : W-what am I even doing? *blushed*

Trying to ignore her racing heartbeat, she quickly fixed the shirt buttons and slowly laid him back properly against the pillow, Aesha sat beside him quietly after that and for a long moment, She only looked at him

Her mind slowly returned to their earlier conversation, The way he looked at his brothers and The way he silently carried everyone, Every responsibility, Every burden, Her eyes softened sadly

Slowly, she raised her hand and gently brushed his messy hair back from his forehead

Aesha : What did you do to yourself? Does your brothers that much important for you? *sad*

Her voice came out barely above a whisper and A small tear escaped her eye quietly

Aesha : I didn’t mean this! I never told you to do this! why did you drink like you don't have any other option! *sad*

For the first time tonight, She realized something clearly that Jin wasn’t tired because of work, He was tired because for years, He forgot how to be anything except responsible And maybe hearing someone question that role had shaken him more deeply than anyone noticed

Aesha wiped her tears quickly and turned to couch, she laid her body and just stared at Jin

On the other side,

In Suga and Aria's room,

Suga pushed the bedroom door open with more force than necessary and Aria, who had been sitting on the edge of the bed for almost an hour waiting for him, immediately stood up

Aria : You’re back! What happened to Jin Oppa? Did he come home? *worried*

Suga didn’t answer, Not even a glance at her and walked past her as if he hadn’t heard a single word

Aria : Hey! *annoyed* I'm asking to You!

He didn't hear and entered the wardrobe room, shrugging off his coat and tossing it carelessly onto the chair, She followed him to the doorway and Suga unbuttoned the cuffs of his shirt slowly

Aria : I Asked something! did Jin come back or not? You can’t just ignore me!

She knocked on his door but he ignored, changing into a loose black shirt and gray sweatpants, he walked straight toward the balcony and Aria stared at his back in disbelief

Aria : Seriously? *angry*

Suga dropped onto the long outdoor couch, grabbed the blanket lying there, and leaned his head back against the wall, clearly done with the conversation

Aria gritted her teeth and marched toward the balcony, slid the door open aggressively, she snatched the blanket off him

Suga’s eyes opened and A dangerous glare settled on his face, Aria glared right back, clutching the blanket in her hands and For a second, neither of them moved

Suga : You'll regret! *cold*

Aria : I don't care! You're ignoring me and that's not acceptable--

Suga : *scoffed and rolled his eyes* Do you really think I DO CARE? *sarcastic*

Suga grabbed the other end of the blanket and tugged it back slightly

Aria : No! First tell me what happened? *angry*

Suga :Ask your sister! *angry* and leave it!

Aria : Unnie? What happened with her--

Suga : Nothing happened to her! She did something to my brother! *angry*

Aria: *scoffed* Aesha unnie? OH PLEASE? She’s literally the softest among us. She can’t even argue properly without crying!

Suga rolled his eyes in annoyance and sat up on bed

Suga : You women are unbelievable! *angry*

Aria : What’s that supposed to mean? *angry*

Before she could react, Suga suddenly yanked the blanket hard toward himself and Aria lost her balance completely, she fell forward right onto his chest and The breath left her lungs

Her palms pressed against him while the blanket tangled around both of them, For a second, everything froze, Her heart skipped violently and Suga looked down at her with narrowed eyes, one arm unconsciously around her waist from catching her

Aria could hear his breathing and Could feel the warmth of his body under her fingertips But his gaze remained cold

Suga : Leave me alone! *angry*

Aria looked up into his eyes and for some reason she couldn’t move, she just started at him and Suga rolled his eyes

Suga : I said leave me alone otherwise you’ll regret it for sure! *angry*

His eyes held a warning but Aria just kept staring at him stubbornly, refusing to look away and that only irritated him more, Suga clicked his tongue and rolled his eyes

Before she realized what he was doing, he wrapped the blanket entirely around her like a cocoon, trapping her arms, he lifted her effortlessly

Aria : H-hey! LEAVE ME! WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING? *angry*

Aria’s eyes widened but He walked inside the room with her struggling in his arms and dropped her onto the bed

She looked back aggressively but Ignoring her glare, Suga turned around and walked back toward the balcony doors

Aria : YOU'RE IMPOSSIBLE! YOU KNOW? *angry*

Suga looked back to her as if he would answer but then locked the balcony door from outside and simply laid back down on the balcony couch again

Aria : HEY! *angry*

Aria jumped off the bed immediately and marched toward the glass door, glaring at him through it

Aria : Jerk! *angry*

Suga pulled the blanket over his head and slept without minding her presence
