"Dinner!" Jin yells from the kitchen and Taehyung sighs. God, he does not have the energy to be in the same room as that cooky younger. He is his hyung so why is Jungkook so freaking disrespectful and mean? It was a good picture...

After Jin yells for the second time, Taehyung groans and gets up. He waddles outside the room and down the stairs, meeting Jimin on the way.

"You look exhausted" Jimin giggles and pushes Taehyung playfully.

"Ass" Taehyung just pushes back, but he can't stop cracking a smile.

The walk all the way down and into the kitchen. Taehyung spots Jin yawn loudly before shaking his head and focusing back on the food.

The brunette walks over to his hyung and wraps his arms around his waist while resting his chin on the elder's wide shoulders.

"What?" Jin asks in a soft voice, still focused on the pan with the meat. He had just arrived back from work, luckily, he is free tomorrow so he can relax.

"It was a long night wasn't it?" Taehyung whispers, not really knowing if it was a question or a statement.

Jin huffs.

"I'm fine Taehyung, don't worry" he whispers back. The younger doesn't push it more, he just helps his brother bring the food over to the table.

His gaze lands on Jungkook who is wearing his usual cold face. Taehyung forces his eyes away and sits as far from the other as possible.

The girls are back as well, talking about some makeup they considered buying. They had become surprisingly good friends. Even Yong.

When all the food is served, the youngers quickly dig in. Jin only eats a little, he just enjoys the others being eager for his food. It must be good then.

"So, how is the project going?" he asks, looking at the girls.

"It's going fine! If the boys actually helped, we would have been doing even better" Jisoo flips her hair and the guys just roll their eyes.

Jin sighs and shakes his head.

Taehyung's and Jimin's classes had made the project last week, so they were just on holiday for now.

"Well, at least you're making progress"

"Oppa, we can let them stay here right?" Rose asks.

"Sure, I will collect some better mats," he says with a comforting smile. Jungkook and Yoongi sighs. They don't wanna be here...

But Namjoon isn't bothered at all. He actually likes being in the house.

"And don't fucking snore again, I will cut your throat" Yoongi spits before turning around on the new soft madras.

"It's not like I can control it?" Namjoon whines back.

"Just shut up" Jungkook finishes. Namjoon lays down with a huff and pulls the blanket to his chin. Due to his lack of sleep last night, he took a long nap doing the day. He started to regret that now.

After thirty minutes of listening to the others slow breathing, Namjoon ended up laying with his phone, scrolling through different social media.

He sighs as the clock hit 3 am. It's going to be a long day tomorrow.

After throwing his phone away he tries to force himself asleep. But after another thirty minutes, he hears the familiar footsteps walking down the stairs.

It's still around 4 am in the morning? Is it Jin again?

He fake sleeps by closing his eyes as the steps pass him and continue into the kitchen. Namjoon catches a glint of a shape, and he quickly concludes it is Jin. No one else has that wide shoulders.

He fights the urge to go and talk to him. But he didn't want to bother the older. Jin had turned him down right away last time and told him to go back to bed. So, the younger turns around and after a while, he finally falls asleep.

It's morning on the fifth day of the bad boys' stay and Namjoon is about to explode. He had been awake every night to hear Jin wake up around 3-4 am in the morning, even though he went to bed at the same time the others did. Maybe even later.

Namjoon is frustrated and he just wants to force the words out of the elder. But for some reason, he is... too... shy? Kim Namjoon being too shy?

What the hell's happening?

But the male is determined to know what's up with Jin's behavior. So, when Taehyung is on his way out of the bathroom after a shower, he is forcefully pulled into his room.

Namjoon closes the door and looks at the scared brunette.

"Don't rape me" Taehyung says, still freaking out.

"What? No... no, I need to ask you something" Namjoon puts his hands up to show his innocence.

Taehyung frowns but sits on the edge of the bed while waiting for the question.

"W-why is Jin up so early in the morning?" Namjoon stutters. Goddamnit, it wouldn't stop...

Taehyung's eyes widen and he tilts his head slightly to the side.

"You noticed?" he asks.

"Yeah, I have happened to be awake at the time"

Taehyung scratches the back of his head awkwardly.

"He doesn't really like to talk about it but... I still think you need to ask him yourself." Namjoon sighs at the statement.

"Will Jimin tell me?"

Taehyung shakes his head. Namjoon had an idea of what might be wrong with Jin, but he didn't want to jump to conclusion.

"Why do you wanna know anyway?" the brunette asks.

Namjoon shrugs his shoulders. He barely knew himself, but it had been bucking him all night by now.

Guess there was no escaping it. He had to speak with Jin if he wanted to know.

He leaves Taehyung in the room and walks towards Jin's office or room or whatever it is. His hand slowly knocks on the door and it only takes a few seconds before Jin allows him to enter.

"Namjoon? What's the matter?" he asks as he looks up at the younger. He's sitting in front of his desk, a lot of papers scattered over the table. He wondered where his 'free day' went?

"Uhm hyung..." Namjoon says, fumbling with his hands.

Jin raises an eyebrow.

"Manners? Are you sick?" he asks sarcastically, a giggle escaping his mouth.

"N-no haha... can I ask you something? Like, a-about you?"

Jin hesitates, a frown growing on his face.

"Yeah, go ahead," Jin says in a curious voice.

Namjoon is feeling uncomfortable. Cause, Taehyung had informed him that Jin didn't like talking about his... problem?

"I have been awake the last few nights and you seem to wake up unnaturally early? Is something wrong?" Namjoon's bad-boy behavior is back to hide his uncomfortable state, he leans on one leg and crosses his arms.

Jin looks at him a little and then back at the papers.

"Was that all? You can leave" he says rather harshly.

"But you didn't answer-"

"Kid, there are some things you don't need to know. I'm just your classmate's brother, don't worry about me" Jin's clear voice sounded just like a father lecturing his son.

Namjoon stands a bit more, looking at Jin who is wearing some huge glasses. He looks tired. And sad.

"O-okay... but I will know someday" with those words he turns and opens the door. Jin watches him leave and sighs heavily.

Why was some college kid interested in his life?

He can't show his weakness like that. He needs to be strong for his siblings and the world around them, it has always been his main priority.
