One Step Closer - PART 1

One Step Closer - 115💕

As expected, his father's nostrils flared and pupils dilated. "That's my favorite pajamas," he grumbled.

"Don't worry, I'll wash it before leaving it in your closet just the way it was," he purposefully teased his father.

"What?" His father's eyes widened. "There's no need for that. You're my son. You can wear anything you want." His expression sobered. "Don't wash it." He looked so troubled and it made Jimin burst into laughter.

He chuckled at his father's reaction. "Okay, dad. I'll leave it unwashed on your bed. Sounds good?"

His father scowled again. "You know what you're doing."

"You're so funny when you're like this." Jimin let out an amused laughter. "I don't get to see you like this every day and I'm not missing my chance."

"I didn't think you'd stay over." He glanced over his shoulder. "She went for her walk?"

"Guess so." Jimin shrugged. "I slept sooooo good." He stretched his arms up with a groan. "Oof that was one of the best night's sleep."

His father's scowl deepened. "I'm in this mess because I was helping you." He waved a furious hand in front of him. "You better sort this out and bring my mate back to my bedroom. I haven't slept a wink in two days while you're cuddling with her like you did nothing wrong," he growled. "Don't make me kick your butt."

Jimin chuckled. "It's not my fault you don't know how to calm your mate," he shot back. "Tried to sneak into her nest? That works all the time for me. She hardly has the heart to kick me out. I'm her favorite pup you see. She goes all mellow and gooey at the sight of me in her nest." He batted his lashes with a mischievous grin, knowing all too well what he was doing.

"I'm her husband. She will kick me right out of it and will go without talking to me for another day just because I got into her nest without her permission," his dad complained. "Yah! Do something and put me back in there with her. My wolf is going nuts and you're rubbing her scent in my nose purposefully. I'm going crazy that it's not me who's wearing that scent."

"Aww, my poor dad. Wanna hug?" Jimin opened his arms wide only for his dad's scowl to deepen.

"Shut up. Are you going to fix it or not?" he demanded, slapping his arms away.

"Of course." Jimin sobered up. "But dad, you see, there's only little I can do to erase her anger. I explained myself and mellowed her anger a bit by staying with her. Now you have to do the remaining work. Bet her anger at you has lessened now I have assured her that we have this in control."

His father looked hopeful. "You think so?" He took a step forward. "She refused the flowers I bought for her and told me to shove it where the sun doesn't shine," he complained. "She wouldn't even look at me in the face."

"Ah..." Jimin leaned forward as if he was going to tell him a secret and his dad leaned too. "You're doing it all wrong, dad."

"Yeah?"

"Mhmm... There's this new Tiktok trend that's going on, where the established couples show how they patch up after a fight. Jungkook bets that it works on every omega," he divulged, sounding serious.

"What is it?" His father's eyes widened and he looked enthusiastic all of a sudden.

"Just approach her, look intimidating because that appeals to the omegas, then grab the back of her neck and push her against the wall. Once you're sure she isn't going to kick your gronk-nuks* kiss her."

"Oh." His dad looked thoughtful.

Just as Jimin leaned closer one more time, they heard footsteps approaching and Jimin winked at his father. "All the best, dad. Go make her yours." He blew a kiss at him and flew down the hall.
