Yoongi swats the toddler's ass when the other hugs him. It's not hard but firm enough for the boy to know his father isn't fooling around this time.
"Ow dada," Jungkook pouts.
"Promise me you're not going to give us a scare the way you did today," Yoongi says sternly, "It can be dangerous and we love our kookie too much to lose you, baby."
He knows some of his words are lost on the toddler but at least he seems to understand that it's serious.
"Kookie's sorry," he mumbles cutely and Yoongi can't find it in him to stay upset with the young boy. He wraps his hand around the child and kisses his forehead.
"You're forgiven," he smiles before his gaze shifts to the iron man plushie clutched in the boy's hand.
"Well well well, who's this?"
"Iron man," squeals Jungkook, shoving his plushie in Yoongi's face.
Yoongi shakes his head with a laugh, "I see. Go on, you little brat. Go play."
Jungkook giggles before he toddles off to the living room. It's then that Yoongi's eyes zero in on Hoseok's face. Although the younger tries his best to mask it, Yoongi knows his husband like the back of his hand. Can see the emotions through the little cracks in his mask.
He stands before Hoseok and pulls him into a hug. Just as he predicted, he feels Hoseok's tears soak his shirt.
"It's okay. Jungkook's okay," Yoongi whispers.
"I'm a terrible parent," Hoseok chokes out.
And oh.
Yoongi realises what's going through Hoseok's mind. Can tell now that he's beating himself up for what happened.
"You're a wonderful parent to kookie."
"I was irresponsible. I almost lost our son. I was—"
"Hush," Yoongi stops him by placing a finger against his lips before gently pecking it.
"You're a great parent, baby. Whatever happened today was inevitable. Yes, we have knowledge about parenting but we're new to this. We're bound to make mistakes as much prepared for this role we may seem, we aren't truly prepared. But we learn through experience. I've made mistakes too, haven't I? That's okay. It happens. You can't beat yourself up for it. At the end of the day, Jungkook is okay. You're okay. Everything is fine, baby."
"I was so scared," Hoseok sobbed into Yoongi's shoulder.
"I know, baby. I know. I was too. Parenting is hard. But I've got your back, and you've got mine. We'll do just fine, baby."
"You promise I'm not a bad father?" Hoseok whimpers.
"I know you aren't. You're the dad that Jungkook runs to when he's sick. You're his sunshine father. He loves playing with you, loves cuddling you. He loves listening to the bedtime stories you narrate to him. Heck, when I scold him, he runs to you for comfort. You're a great dad, baby. Don't you doubt that."
Hoseok sniffles.
"Thank you."
"Look at me, sunshine."
Hoseok lifts his head to meet Yoongi's eyes.
"You're amazing, babe."
With that, Yoongi leaned forward and pressed a kiss to Hoseok's lips that the younger returned.
"I love you," Hoseok whispered into the kiss.
The end
