3RD PERSON
Today was the day. Finally, trinity was being discharged from the hospital.
Since it was a Monday and her parents were at work, hoseok would need to be the one helping her get her things situated so that they could return home.
Despite their argument, Trinity decided she would go back to the apartment. She missed their bed and honestly she just wanted to be alone.
She wanted to just lay down and curl up in a ball, covering herself with blankets and surrounding herself with nothing but silence.
She looked a mess in her opinion. She covered her head with a bonnet and she wore baggy clothing after being discharged. Her face was oily and she felt heavy. She just didn't feel like her best self and that was a yucky feeling.
Hoseok hopped in the drivers seat after closing Trinity's door for her and making sure she was settled.
He wasted no time in starting the car and getting them the hell away from the hospital. Their apartment was still a little far out since she was rushed to a hospital closer to the university.
So the apartment was around 45 minutes away.
"You hungry, baby?" Hoseok asked Trinity, briefly looking over at her.
"No. Just tired." Trinity said, leaning her head against the window and closing her eyes.
Hoseok felt horrible for her. He hated seeing her like this and the sad thing about it was that he didn't know what to do.
He could see the depression written on her face. He could see how all of this was taking a toll on her.
"You have an excuse-"
"I know Hobi. I'll give them the excuse once I return back to classes next week. I already emailed my dance teacher. Everything is taken care of." Trinity said softly.
"Alright then." Hoseok cleared his throat, keeping his eyes fixed ahead to concentrate on the road.
Once they got settled in at the apartment, Hoseok left Trinity to rest up in their bedroom. He took some time to himself in the living room.
It had been days since he last had a nice, soothing blunt. So he chose to roll up while watching the tv.
Lord knows he wanted to just go up there and hold her. He wanted for things to go back to normal, whatever the fuck their normal was.
But truth is trinity and hoseok had never been normal. He just missed his trinity. He missed his sweetheart. And while he still loved her the same no matter how he acted, he needed to admit that it hurt to see her like this.
Hoseok took a long pull from the blunt. His head tilts upwards right when he decided to release the smoke. Eyes closed and body feeling ten times lighter afterwards. This was heaven to him.
A couple of minutes into his smoke session, he got a message on his phone.
Hoseok picked up the device to read the message on the screen. He couldn't help but break out into a silly little school boy grin once he seen the message from trinity.
Babygirl💕: I wanna cuddle
Hoseok licked over his lips, thinking of a quick response to hit her back with.
Okay baby. Just let me finish smoking right quick.
He didn't know why something so simple made his heart soar. He was happy to see she missed his touch just as much as he missed hers. He had been waiting for this moment ever since their argument. Hell, even before then.
Things may take some time to fall back into place but this was a great start. He just needed to be patient with her.
As promised, hoseok was back to their room after a nice smoke session alone. He pulled off his T-shirt and socks, now only wearing his sweatpants before diving into the bed next to trinity.
She had her back turned to him but after he got under the covers she turned around.
"No, you still have that injury on the side of your head princess." Hoseok pointed out.
"It's fine. I have it bandaged plus it doesn't hurt as much anymore. It's just bleeding a little." Trinity assured him.
Hoseok sighed, taking her word for it. He pulled her closer to him. Not an inch of her body was away from his, she was wrapped around him like some rope.
She nestled into his chest as he stared up at the ceiling, rubbing her back and occasionally pecking her lips.
This was home for him.

The carpool line for Mila's school was always long as hell and hectic. Yes, the teachers moved as fast as they possibly could but dealing with talkative elementary kids who didn't want to leave their friends was a piece of work.
Suga sat in the drivers seat of his car, one hand on the steering wheel and the other held up to his head as he rubbed his temples.
"This is fucking ridiculous." He complained.
Raven chuckled from beside him. "You'll get used to it. When I used to pick her up sometimes I just walked to avoid these long lines."
"You walked?! Your apartment was blocks away from her school." Suga said in disbelief, pulling up a bit more in line.
"It was better than waiting in these damned lines I tell you that." Raven mumbled. "Plus I was coming from work, not home. So I was closer."
A few minutes later they were pulling up towards the front of the line. The teacher opened the back door and Mila came running, happily sliding in the backseat and bidding her teacher goodbye.
Raven reached back and slid the seatbelt over her daughter before smiling. "Hey baby." She greeted.
"Hey mommy. Hey Suga." Mila greeted them.
"What's up Mila, how was school?" Suga asked, getting back on the road.
"It was okay, I made a new friend today!" The six year old exclaimed happily.
Raven gasped, looking at her through the rear view mirror. "You did?"
"Yeah. His name is-"
"His?" Suga but in, raising his eyebrows.
Mila gave him a look of confusion, wondering why he didn't seem too pleased. Raven playfully slapped suga's shoulder but Suga wasn't playing at all.
"Don't do that. My baby made a friend, be happy for her."
"I am happy but at the same time I'm not. Mila, little boys are gross and they have cooties. Don't be friends with them." Suga said.
"That's not right. Gio doesn't have cooties!" Mila said, shaking her head so that her beads made noises.
"He does. He's just hiding them from you. And I won't let you catch the cootie disease from him or any other little boy. So no guy friends until you're 45." He said seriously.
Raven couldn't help but laugh at the exchange between the two of them. It was honestly adorable seeing how protective Suga was over Mila.
But she knew he wouldn't really stop her from being friends with Gio. Mila struggled to make new friends. It's not because she wasn't capable of doing so, it was just because she was an introvert and enjoyed being alone.
So it was shocking to hear she had made a friend. But Raven was happy to know that her baby girl could do it.
"But me and you friends." Mila said adorably, genuinely confused on how she could be friends with Suga - who was a boy, but not Gio who was also a boy.
"Well that's because I don't have cooties. I gave them all to your mom." Suga said.
Raven laughed loudly causing Suga to crack a smile.
"Oh no! Mommy, you okay?" Mila asked, actually concerned about her mother.
"I'm fine baby." Raven reassured her daughter.
Once they made it home, Raven and Mila decided they wanted to watch some movies. So Raven ordered a pizza and afterwards got comfortable on the couch with a blanket and Mila cuddling against her while they watched a movie.
Suga was in the kitchen talking on the phone when Raven got a message on hers.
It was from Mila's teacher. As Raven read over the message, she could see that it was just the teacher informing parents that the students had a project.
The average family tree project that all kids had to do at one point in time.
Raven sighed, turning off her phone. "Mila, you have a project to do."
"A project?" Mila asked, looking up at her mother. Raven played with Mila's hair as she nodded.
"Mhm. It's just like homework except it's more fun." Raven said.
"Oh..." Mila trailed off. "Mommy, what's project?" She asked. Raven knew she wasn't asking for a definition, but instead asking what was the project about.
"You get to do a family tree. You can put pictures of grandma and grandpa on your family tree. You can even put pictures of mommy and da-"
Raven quickly stopped herself, reminding herself that Mila didn't have pictures of her father and didn't even know who her father was.
And just like that, this entire thing became emotional for her.
"Uh...pictures of m-mommy and yourself and all. It'll be fun." Raven stuttered.
Mila didn't really seem excited to be doing this project and as Raven thought about it, she realized she wasn't excited either.
Knowing she would be having to dig for pictures and go out and get the supplies for it, she dreaded the damned project.
But she wanted her baby to have a good grade. It was on first grade but still, she wanted Mila to have a good presentation.
"The pizza should be here in thirty minutes." Suga sighed, going over to stand behind the couch Raven and Mila laid on.
He realized Raven seemed a bit distant. Suga pulled her hair causing her to smack her lips and move away.
"Don't do that." She said, touching up her curls.
"What's wrong with you?" Suga asked her.
Raven lowered her hand. "Mila has a project coming up in school. She has to do a family tree." Raven said.
"Okay? Why is that a bad thing?" Suga asked.
The woman gave him a look that Suga caught on to after awhile. He made an o-shape with his lips as he came to a realization.
"Well don't sweat that, baby. That asshole doesn't have to be included." Suga said lowly to Raven.
"I know but it'll still hurt her once she gets to class and all the other kids are presenting, showing off their absent fathers and my baby is just standing there without one on her poster. That's not right." Raven said.
Mila was too entertained by the movie to even be listening to their conversation.
"Put me on the poster then." Suga said.
"Don't be ridiculous." Raven said. Suga kissed his teeth before looking up at the tv.
"I'm serious. I can have my own little section, she doesn't necessarily have to put me under the title as her father. But I don't want her feeling left out either." Suga said sincerely.
"It can be a 'Family and Suga Tree', not just a family tree." He grinned.
"Yeah....yeah okay. That's a good idea." Raven gave in.
"I know it is. I'm the one that came up with it." Suga said cockily, coming around to plop down on the other couch.
Once Mila seen him, she jumped up from the couch with Raven and rushed over to sit with Yoongi.
Of course he welcomed her with opened arms, she cuddled into his side as he held her close and they watched the movie together.
As cute as the sight was, Raven felt offended. "Really Mila? You just left mama hanging?" Raven asked.
Mila looked over at her, a nervous grin on her face. "Sorry mommy." She apologized, but it was funny because she never left suga's side.
