Crybaby - Yoonmin

Part 26: Choppies

Yoongi reached under his bed and pulled out a foldout wooden table which he proceeded to dump on his bed with a gummy smile before plopping down next to it.

Jimin couldn't help but return the goofy smile as he made his way over, complimenting "Your rooms very cute." Which managed to earn a even wider smile in response.

He placed the bag of food on the floor for a minute as he actually set the table up since Yoongi just placed it before setting the food across it and sitting across from him to make sure he didn't make a mess since he was little.

Yoongi sat waiting patiently with a smile still plastered on his face as Jimin did so, smiling with excitement and eagerness when Jimin snapped apart the two chopsticks for him before handing it over.

Jimin watched as he fiddled with them in his hands before he decided on a way of holding them, which was wrong, before attempting to pick up the first noodle.

And as Jimin expected it didn't go well.

It instantly slid between them and landed straight back into the boul as Yoongi carried on bringing the chopsticks to his mouth not realising his noodle wasn't on it.

It took him a few seconds to process it had fell, with his mouth still open in a 'O' for the food before his eyebrows furrowed and a pout made its way to his lips.

Jimin chuckled before encouraging him too "Try again." Which he did albeit reluctant.

And once again it didn't work.

He tried a few more times before his pout became significantly more prominent with his bottom lip wobbling slightly which Jimin took as a sign it was time to help.

Jimin reaches forward over the table and ruffled the others already messy hair and softly said "I told you it was tricky, even I used to struggle with it, so how about I go get you a spoon and fork so it's easier? Sound good?" Getting ready to stand up when Yoongi shook his head and folded his arms.

Jimin frowned slightly at the action and asked "Why not Yooni?" In a gentle voice knowing the little was upset over it but not seeing why his solution didn't work.

Yoongi just mumbled "Wan' use choppies." Turning his face away from the other as he tried to hide how frustrated he was getting.

He didn't want to get in trouble for being upset or annoyed like he used to growing up so he just turned away to hide it, muttering "I no wanna eat no'mo." Before getting up onto his knees to climb off the bed and run away so he could calm down on his own but before he could jump off Jimin had quickly grabbed his wrist.

Jimin could tell he was frustrated and started to quickly question if why Yoongi didn't eat when he was alone was because he was little and couldn't cook since he seemed to just give up on a meal because he was frustrated but he equally as fast pushed that thought to the side for the time being deciding he needed to comfort the little and coax him back.

He gently called out "Yooni, please come sit back down. You need to eat lovely." Trying to reason with the other who only jolted in his steps for a moment before shaking his head and looking down to walk away.

Before he could do that though Jimin had reached forward with his other hand, placing it on Yoongi's waist, and pulled him into a back hug until he was sat securely on the bed again with Jimin stopping him from getting up as he proposed "How about I show you how to use chopsticks this time and you can use them next time? That way you get to see how and you get to have a full tummy with all this nice food."

He wasn't sure if it was going to work, or why his face felt like it was burning, but when he felt Yoongi go from stiff to melting in his arms he took it as a yes and a big sign that Yoongi trusted him more now even if sometimes it felt like they weren't getting anywhere - with Yoongi still hiding his little side away as well as most of his thoughts and feelings.

Out of instinct he pecked the side of Yoongi's head whispering "Good boy." smiling more when the other didn't flinch away and shuffling closer to the table again and pausing for a moment as he attempted to think about how he was going to feed the other.

But he didn't get to think for long before Yoongi crawled into his lap, with his legs draped across his own, looking up with innocent and slightly glistening eyes trying to see if it was okay.

And mayhaps Jimin's heart melted.

Mayhaps he wanted to cry.

Mayhaps- he was whipped.

He quickly gave the little a welcoming smile before picking up the chopsticks in one hand and scooping up the first bit of food.

Silently he brought it to Yoongi's lips, rubbing the base of the others back all the while, before encouraging him too "Open up."

Yoongi blushed slightly as he made the same 'O' face as earlier before nomming down on the food and slurping the noodles.

Jimin couldn't help but coo at how cute he looked doing it and was quick to bring more to Yoongi's lips thinking it was an endearing sight.

Yoongi grew more comfortable as time went on with being fed and he found himself relaxing more into Jimin's shoulder as the other almost silently fed him, throwing in compliments here and there which made the little blush more.

When Yoongi had finished, after redirecting some of the food to Jimin's lips like the angel he is, he was basically dozing off on Jimin's shoulder only responding to food when Jimin poked his lips.

Jimin found it the most adorable and entertaining thing in the world and continued tapping on Yoongi's lips with the chopsticks when the food was gone because he found the way Yoongi opened his mouth lazily, slightly glossy from the food and swollen from biting on them; unbearably cute.

He managed to get away with it five times before the other blinked his eyed open with a pout forming on his lips that Jimin wanted to kiss away.

Thoughts like those were becoming more and more normal day by the day for him which he tried to normalise by saying he'd felt that way before and nothing came from it so why risk a great friendship, but what he purposely chose to ignore were the thoughts and feelings that he never felt.

And like those thoughts he chose to ignore them in that moment, opting for bopping Yoongi's nose and eye smiling at him as he announced and congratulated "Your all done, good job cutie."

And like that Yoongi's pout seemed to fade into a tired smile again as he cuddled up more in Jimin's chest looking for warmth and comfort before drifting off to sleep as the other let him.
