07| Princess Sooyeong
So.
Here I am, at The Babysitter Club once again, all thanks to that request Yoongi had made earlier.
As last period neared it's end, I felt the anticipation build up inside of me because I was getting so curious as to who these little cuties belong to because just look at them- they're literally oozing softness and metaphorically scream hug me.
I had literally ranted on about how cute TXT is to Taehyung as we made our way here- it was like I had bitten off his ear with my words alone but then he reminded me about Taehyun and his lovely hands being placed over a certain somewhere.
I ended up elbowing him in the tummy, which earned me a soft groan from him but afterwards he vowed to protect me from their sneaky little hands- if they ever did that again.
Although it was cute, it was still flustering at the same time to hear that but maybe he just doesn't want Hueningkai poking him again?
"Noona!" Hueningkai yells, breaking me out of my thoughts. "I've come to rescue you! From his evil clu- hands!"
He charges ahead towards Taehyung, whose sitting beside me with a look of contentment.
"Soobin. Taehyun. Take care of Princess Soo Yeong." Taehyung's deep voice echoes in this little room, and the two boys immediately heed his words and they firmly stand in front me, with their hands outstretched overlooking Hueningkai and his minions- Yeonjun and Beomgyu.
I softly giggle at the sight.
Hueningkai thought it would be a great idea to role play with Taehyung as the Kidnapper and me as the Princess because whenever Yoongi starred as the Princess he would always apparently sleep through the rescue like he's doing right now but despite that they gave him the role of the King because the King never leaves his castle, so there's really no need for Yoongi to do anything but sleep.
Furthermore, to look the Princess-y part. Taehyun had suggested that I use Taehyung's neck tie as a tiara, and obviously Taehyung thought it would be funny so, here I am in all it's glory, sitting with Taehyung's neck tie securely attached around my head and hanging to the side of my face, like a loose strand of hair.
These kids and their imagination. I swear.
"Release the Prin-shess!" Yeonjun yells- his little hands forming fists and Beomgyu nods his head in agreement.
"Or you will taste DEFEAT!" Hueningkai thrusts his sword towards Taehyung but he only smirks.
"Rawr."
Taehyung softly growls and claws the air slightly.
Beomgyu gets freightened and immediately falls over on his bum, Hueningkai comes to a halt and trembles with his sword between his hands but Yeonjun on the other hand looks over at the two in distraught- his lips going on to form a soft pout.
"Yah! You two are scaredy cats." He shoots, running towards Taehyung despite not having his aids to support him, and he slaps Taehyung's crossed legs with his hands. "Noona! I'll save you."
I smile at his bravery and eagerness.
"Fighting!" I encourage.
"Yah!" Taehyun suddenly yells, abandoning his position from in front me and he runs over to Taehyung but not without pulling Taehyung's, now dried snotty blazer with him. "Take this!"
Taehyun hurls the blazer over Yeonjun's body and just like that, Yeonjun's been captured but he doesn't give up. Rather he makes tireless efforts to try and escape but alas his attempts are inevitably deemed futile.
"It's finished." Taehyung states, triumphantly as Soobin looks up at me and I just give him a smile. "The kidnapping of the Princess and the total annihilation of the Royal Guards was a success."
"We won Noona!" Soobin yells in excitement as he slightly pulls on the hem of my skirt.
As for Yeonjun, he finally manages to surface and he peeps out from beneath the blazer. He holds onto Taehyung's leg with a huge pout and the tears slowly start to brim in his eyes.
I gasp and in a heartbeat I slide over to him, taking him in my arms. "Are you okay, Yeonjun?"
Taehyung looks on in concern but at that very moment, Yeonjun completely bursts into tears and I look down at him with terrified eyes.
My own tears threatens to flow but I keep strong and ask, "Did you get hurt when the blazer fell over you?"
"Yeonjun ah~?..." Taehyun whines worriedly and he immediately comes over, standing on his tippy toes to look at his friend.
The remaining three; Soobin, Beomgyu and Hueningkai worriedly make their way over, as well, to figure out what's suddenly made their friend cry.
"I didn't get to save you noona!" He suddenly yells, with one fist in the air and the other wipes his tears. "They're cowards!" He whines, pointing at Hueningkai and Beomgyu, who now have watery eyes.
"Tae hyung was scaredy!" Hueningkai cries, then he runs towards Taehyung and shakes his knee.
"Mhm mhm." Beomgyu agrees, and he attempts to mimic the action that Taehyung had utilised to scare them. "Hyung was like a tae-ger. Rawr, rawr." His voice is soft.
I smile softly and I feel my insides fill with a warmth similar to the kind that I had felt earlier.
"Was I that scary?" Taehyung questions with a pensive look, and his hand ruffles Hueningkai's dark locks.
"Ani!" Yeonjun hollers, and he huddles closer to me, gripping tightly onto my blazer. "He wasn't. It was fun!"
"Deh!" Soobin exclaims, agreeing with his friend. "Soo Yeong noona was the best Prin-shess!"
I smile, and lightly pinch his cheek.
"And Soo Yeong noona's tiara is my favourite." Beomgyu mumbles, as he makes his way beside me and tugs lightly at the bottom of Taehyung's tie.
"Thank you." I giggle, then ruffle his hair and he gives me a closed eyed smile.
"YAH! LET'S PLAY AGAIN!" Hueningkai exclaims, picking up his sword again. "I won't lose this time!"
Taehyung sighs, "Aish, Kai-"
"Annyeong!"
A calm voice suddenly resonates from the entrance and almost immediately my eyes shoots over to the figure but when I register whom it is, my jaw drops in shock.
"Nam-Namjoon-nim?"
I almost have a heart attack.
"Kids! It's time to go- oh Soo Yeong? Did you finally join a club?"
There's question marks floating around my head.
I didn't know he was a dad.
I control myself and answer his question, "Ah deh, I joined today."
"PAPA!"
Three voices simultaneously yell in excitement and Yeonjun immediately detaches from me, following Soobin and Beomgyu as they run into Namjoon's arms, and he cradles them as if they're precious gems- which they are.
I stare on in bewilderment but as if that isn't enough, another beaming voice suddenly shoots from beside Namjoon, after suddenly making an appearance.
"Kai and Taehyun, my precious babies!" He kneels down to the ground. "My heartue!"
"Jimin ssi's dance teacher... H-Hoseok-nim?"
I watch as Hueningkai and Taehyun immediately run to towards him and Hueningkai pokes Hoseok in the tummy with his sword.
"Oh! You got me." Hoseok melodramatically wails and falls to the ground, earning a great deal of laughter from the two kids.
"Snap out of it." I hear Taehyung's voice and he gently slaps his neck tie over my face. "They're adults, they're allowed to have kids."
I turn to face him, "I didn't say they couldn't have kids. I'm just surprised, that's all."
Taehyung grins softly, "I was too." He admits.
"Aish," A monotonous voice calls out from behind Taehyung and I. "What's all the noi- oh is it time to go home already?" Yoongi yawns, as his eyes prys over the two teachers.
"Deh," Hoseok confirms, cradling Taehyun and Hueningkai in his arms. "Thank you for your hardwork. You too Taehyung. Oh and who is this?"
"Ah, I'm Min Soo Yeong. The newest member of this club." I bow from my seated position and the neck tie dangles in front of me. "And I promise to take care of the kids as if they're my own."
I look up to see both Namjoon and Hoseok smiling back at me.
"Papa!" Taehyun tugs at Hoseok's face. "She's super nice. I like her."
"Me too me too!"
The remaining four kids retort in unison and I feel my heart flutter in content. It feels so wholesome.
"Soo Yeong is a good kid. Anyway, we're going to head off." Namjoon ascends from the ground, and he bows. "We'll see you tomorrow."
"We should go too." Hoseok gets up as well. "Take care and don't sleep too much Yoongi hyung."
"Aish." Yoongi heaves.
Namjoon and Hoseok exit the little day care centre but as they leave all of the kids yell and scream - delivering their goodbyes together with frantic waves.
Taehyung, Yoongi and I simply wave back and watch the two little families disappear from sight.
"What a rowdy bunch..." Taehyung sighs, rubbing his nape tiredly.
"Did you enjoy today Soo Yeong?" Yoongi asks, his lips revealing a gummy smile.
"Ah deh." I bow, with an excited reply. "It's a new experience and I'll treasure it."
"Good." Yoongi gets up, and gathers his things, preparing to leave. "Only if Taehyung felt that way."
Taehyung sends Yoongi a glare, "Don't start hyung."

After closing up at The Babysitter Club. Taehyung, Yoongi and I went our different ways.
Yoongi had said that he's going to stop by at Seven Eleven to get a bowl of noodles and he did offer us to join but Taehyung declined, mentioning something about stopping by at the dry cleaners to get his blazer all cleaned up and I especially didn't want to intrude since I've just met Yoongi.
It'll probably be a bit too awkward for me to eat with him so I declined the offer as well and just decided on heading home altogether.
And since it's such a lovely sunny day, I decided to walk home instead of taking the bus. At least this way, I'll be able to bask in the fresh air and soak up some rays.
As I stroll, my mind wanders, and countless of thoughts shoots through my brain like a meteor shower, rarely witnessed on a summers night.
I never really expected this whole Taehyung as a boyfriend thing to blow out of proportion like this but I won't pin it as a disaster of some kind- it's actually far from it.
Somehow I feel like that encounter with Minho and this whole ordeal is a kind of blessing in disguise since I've grown a lot more closer with Taehyung- who used to annoy me literally every second whenever he actually was around.
As for Jimin and Jungkook, I've seen their support for me shine. They really are great friends and I'm grateful to have them in my life. In addition, I've also gained a five more friends, thanks to this deal of Taehyung's, and I've really fallen in love with them.
Those kids, really hit that certain part of my heart that's been locked up and neglected for so many years thanks to my parents- who are never around despite them being alive and well and to add to that mess, I have no siblings.
Which means, I live alone.
But when TXT smothered me with all that love, I felt that caged up area in my heart, unlock, even if it was just a little, it still brought me a great deal of happiness and warmth.
So, when I had told Namjoon and Hoseok that I'll take care of them as if they're my own. I absolutely meant it because I definitely don't want to be a reflection of my parents.
I breathe in deeply, suddenly taking in the fresh air into my lungs, and I get a waft of different scents like coffee, fruits, flowers, pizza and of course, motor vehicle pollutants which means I have arrived at the crossing line.
I halt, near the edge of the pavement and beside the robot.
My eyes overlooks the cars that are rushing by in a hastily manner, as they usually do, so I go on to push the crosswalk button but in an instant my attention is drawn away when I notice a flyer attached to the robot.
"What's this?" I tilt my head slightly to get a clear look at it. "Children's Day specials at Seven Eleven..."
I purse my lips, pensively.
"I even forgot such a holiday exists." I mumble, and look back at the crossing line in front of me. "And it's this Thursday..."
The pedestrian robot turns green, indicating that it's safe to cross.
"Maybe I should buy them something?"
A/n: Namjoon and Hoseok as dads- a concept sksks don't touch me, I swear I'm not sobbing.
Update (20/02/20): Ya'll Hueningkai be coming through for me on weverse lmao.
