THE PACK - Yoonminkook

Part 36: problem solved

When Yoongi had successfully dragged Jungkook to the gardens the elder has shifted back with a look of pure frustration on his face as he took in the youngers sulking and scolded appearance, stubbornness still lacing his eyes and stance.

But Yoongi was having none of it, quickly placing his hand over the youngers scent guard, making himself seem taller as he gripped Jungkook's chin forcing him to make eye contact.

Jungkook said nothing and just glared at Yoongi until the eldest released his hold with a heavy sigh, stepping back as he complained "I don't want to have this conversation like this." too which Jungkook sharply replied "Then lets not have this conversation at all." drawing a tired sigh from the other.

He hated making the younger feel small but it was the only way to keep pack ranks and dynamics in tact when their wolves got a bit to carried away and Yoongi could only assume that what had been going on with Jungkook was in relation to his wolf which is why he had to assert dominance.

He wished he lived in a different world where something as easy as T posing was all the he needed to do to assert dominance but alas it was a different world and land.

His Jungkookie needed him.

Which is why he simply said "We both know how this is going to end so are you going to talk to hyung, your mate, or are you going to argue and make me have to fight you?"

Jungkook was quick to snap "I'd prefer to be left alone." glaring at the elder who just sighed again, running his hands through his hair - a habit he never was able to shake when stressed and asked "You had your chance at that, now talk. What's this nonsense about being a inconvenience and failure and where has it come from?"

"It's not nonsense." Jungkook mumbled tongue digging into his cheek as he crossed his arms stubbornly.

And so Yoongi had his approach.

Taking a careful step closer he reassured "I know you may feel like that right now and your emotions are valid but I need to here where their coming from so that you can listen to me say where mine are and offer insight, now come on Jungkookie. Talk to hyung. Hyung's little bun."

Yoongi watched as a flash of recognition shot across Jungkook's eyes, fading as quickly as it came at the familiar nicknames and Yoongi could physically see in the way the younger was holding himself that his resolve was quickly crumbling.

And just as he began to fold in on himself to cry, Yoongi was there holding him like a delicate flower in his arms.

And in that moment that's what Jungkook, one of the two delicate flowers he held at the top of his heart, his main priorities.

And then Jungkook was sobbing out apologies, never one for real conflicted even when he first came to them considering how he came to be where he was.

And Yoongi, much like then just held him whispering he was okay and to take his time, he'd still be here to listen when he felt ready.

And like that with soft promises and praise of how well he's doing and how it was okay to be grumpy sometimes but to know boundaries and when to apologise or stop before it got too far he had Jungkook in a semi calm state where he could talk for himself.

"Now tell hyung where all of this is coming from-"

"I think I know."

Both turned to see Jimin stood at a careful distance away as if not to spook the already vulnerable Jungkook. but he did think he knew, and if it was true he felt even more responsible to fix it.

But he didn't want to overstep so stayed where he was stood with a small blanket thrown around his shoulders because it was still early morning.

When Jungkook made a sound in the back of his throat in Jimin's direction the omega cautiously made his way forward until he was crouching behind Jungkook on the floor in a sort of back hug.

He looked to Yoongi asking for silent permission and with the prompt of a small nod Jimin whispered "This is because of a week or two ago isn't it?"

With the way Jungkook tensed Jimin knew that was the answer.

Yoongi looked at him with imploring eyes as Jimin shot him a knowing look, continuing "When you snuck up on me in the living room like a over grown puppy dog." teasing lightly to try and make the other relax but it just drew out another child like whine as the other very weekly defend " 'm a wolf." Jimin reassuring "A very cute and lovely one at that." with a soft giggle.

Jungkook looked at him over his shoulder looking at him in disbelief but Jimin just pecked the tip of his nose which was no exposed from in Yoongi's neck - the elder making an (o.o) face in understanding, puzzle quickly forming as he found himself reassuring;

"Just because scaredy cat Jiminie here jumped doesn't make you a bad alpha Jungkookie, we already spoke about this. You were gentle and harmless, we both agreed our little omega was just taken off guard. Where's all this come from?"

Jungkook looked down guiltily after shooting both a sorry look and its then that recognition flashed across both of their eyes the trio may have never really spoke about it together but they had had their own private conversations about said topic.

"You started to ignore your roof in case I got scared again."

It was more of a statement than a question and the way Jungkook went back into hiding in Yoongi's neck was enough to confirm.

Yoongi let out a soft sigh, holding him closer while resting a hand over Jimin's too in silent comfort and support before saying himself "We both know your wolf gets a little harsh, i know its hard but you need to work on that relationship. Your not an inconvenience or a failure he'd just upset with you. He wants to spend time with Jiminie as much as you do but pushing him away will just make him act out more bun."

Jimin sighed heavily nuzzling the youngest's neck promising "You don't have to keep that side of you away from me or you r wolf form, that's denying a part of yourself. And it's as beautiful as the rest even if it's still unfamiliar in a sense you only know one way."

Yoongi squeezed Jimin's hand tighter and then Jungkook found himself whispering "You haven't even seen him properly..." to which Jimin gently whispered back "Well i'd love to meet him and hear more about him sometime, but your comfort comes first."

And then Jungkook found himself crying again wrapped up in the arms of the two people he loved most, apologising formally to everyone then with cuddles after for his behavior and they were all just glad he'd sorted out what was wrong and that they were okay.

Little did Jimin know about the compromise Jungkook had made with his wolf and Yoongi for the next few days.
