In the kitchen

Seokjin was busy cooking when Namjoon almost bumped into him."Ya, Namjoon, be careful," he said.

"Sorry, Hyung, I'll get out of your way," Namjoon said softly.

Namjoon had left the kitchen just as Seokjin was about to question his member.

Seokjin signed and returned to his cooking, but he took a break after 30 minutes to see how Namjoon was doing.

Something wasn't quite right, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.

He was about to turn and head for Namjoon's bedroom when he heard a noise coming from the bathroom.

He was shocked and devastated by what he saw when he approached.

Namjoon was sobbing deeply and painfully while rocking back and forth on the ground with his back against the tub.

"Joonie, what's wrong? Seokjin kneeled down in front of Namjoon and gently reached out to him." With concern, he asked.

"Hyung," Namjoon sobbed.Not knowing what was about to happen, Seokjin did not object as Namjoon threw himself at him and sobbed deeply, holding onto him.

"It's ok, sweetheart. Gently supporting Namjoon to stand, he added, "Come on, let's get you to your room."

After he got Namjoon to his room, he laid down on the bed with him and held Namjoon, who had his head in Seokjin's chest and was clinging to Seokjin like he was his lifeline while still sobbing soulfully into his chest."Hyung," Namjoon sobbed.

Seokjin comforted him. "It's okay, baby; whatever it is, we can sort it out.""Hyung, I can't do it," Namjoon said as his sobs started turning into wails.

"Can't do, what?" asked Seokjin.

"I can't do it!" cried Namjoon, who was just getting more upset at Seokjin's cluelessness.

As Seokjin struggled to recall what Namjoon was talking about, he immediately thought of their recent meeting."Oh, baby, are you stressed because of the meeting?" he asked softly.

Namjoon pressed his head against Hyung's chest. "It's impossible, Hyung," he said while his eyes kept streaming tears into Seokjin's shirt.

"I know, baby, don't worry, we'll sort it out," Seokjin comforted Namjoon by stroking his hair."Thank you, Hyung," Namjoon choked out.Seokjin kissed the top of his head.

"You're welcome, baby," he said. Namjoon continued to cry against Seokjin for a little while until he was just sniffing.

Seokjin turned Namjoon around so he could look at him.

His heart broke when he saw how red Namjoon's eyes were from crying, but he still wiped Namjoon's face with his sleeve.He said, "Are you feeling better, Joonie?

"Namjoon nodded, a few tears still making their way down his cheeks, but at least he wasn't crying as hard. Seokjin continued to wipe Namjoon's face with his sleeve until Namjoon had no more tears left to release.

Namjoon gave Seokjin another hug in appreciation

Seokjin realised the Maknae line had returned when the front door unexpectedly opened.

"Hyung, where are you?" asked Jungkook "In here, Kookie," Seokjin said.

The Maknaes went to the room where Seokjin and Namjoon were.

Gazing at Namjoon, Taehyung asked, "What's going on?""None of your business now; what do you want?" asked Seokjin, who was still hugging Namjoon, who was hiding his face in his chest out of embarrassment.

Jimin walked over to the bed. "Hyung, could you please tell Hoseokie Hyung and Yoongi to be patient?" He complained.

Why? Seokjin asked.Taehyung answered, "Because they're so impatient.""I'll have a word later, okay?" said Seokjin.

"Hyung, why is Namjoonie Hyung crying?" asked Jungkook

"Once more, that is not your guys' concern. Please go now, Seokjin urged.

"Fine," said Taehyung with a pout, "Me, Jungkook, and Jimin know when we'll not wanted," and they turned and left.

With a quiet laugh, Seokjin turned back to Namjoon, who had begun to cry again, although softer this time."Hey Joonie, what's wrong?" He asked quietly."Hyung, am I a bad leader?" Seokjin gave Namjoon an even tighter hug when he asked."No, Joonie, where's all this coming from? You're a great leader." He continued to wipe Namjoon's face as he spoke.Namjoon signed before he spoke, "I just feel like I'm letting you all down. Okay, maybe not as the leader, RM, but when we're at home, I sometimes feel useless," he confessed.

Seokjin whispered, "Oh, Joonie, you be many things, but you are not useless."

"Thank you, Hyung; I needed to hear that," smiled Namjoon.

Seokjin sat up. "Come on, let's go and see what the others are up to," he said.

Namjoon gave him a headshake. He uttered, "I can't let them see me like this.""Oh, I have an idea. Wait for me in the bathroom, Joonie; I'll be right with you," smiled Seokjin.

Namjoon nodded and went to the bathroom.

Seokjin found his make-up set in his room and joined Namjoon in the bathroom.

He said, "So let's get started."15 minutes later, Seokjin had covered up the redness of Namjoon's eyes enough to make them look better, but not so much that the other members would ask questions.

"All done," he said.

Namjoon grinned as he examined himself in the mirror. He said, "Wow, Hyung, you should be a stylist."

"No problem, Namjoon," smiled Seokjin. He said, "Come on, let's go see what the others are up to."

Namjoon followed him to the sitting room.

"What were you doing?" asked Yoongi."As I told the maknaes, it's none of your business," Seokjin glared at him.

"Wait, was it bad?" asked Hoseok

"Once more, none of your guy's business," Seokjin said

"What are you not telling us, Hyung?" questioned Jungkook

Seokjin was about to reply until he saw Namjoon, who looked like he was about to have a panic attack.

He walked over slowly and held his arms. "Hey Joonie, it's okay," he said

"I don't want everyone to fight because of me," said Namjoon

"No one's fighting Joonie; it's okay," said Seokjin

The others gave Namjin a look."It's up to you, Joonie, but I think we need to tell them something," he whispered

Namjoon nodded and looked at the members.

"Do you guys think I'm useless, not as RM but as Namjoon? I feel like I don't do much when we are here at home," he said while dropping his head into his hands and crying softly.

The other members went over to him slowly and started to tell him how amazing he was.

Yoongi whispered, "Joon, we love you; you are as amazing as Rm and Kim Namjoon

"Taehyung grinned and said, "Yes, Namjoonie Hyung, you're awesome

Namjoon nodded while taking in their words but didn't uncover his face because he didn't want the members to see him crying.

"Agioo Joonie," said Hoseok

"Hyung, you know we'll always be here for you, right?" said Jungkook.

Namjoon nodded, and to his surprise, Jimin gave him a hug and gently pressed his face against his chest.

"I'm sorry," he said

"Hyung, don't worry, you are free to cry all you want" said Jimin "The others can go, or you can come to my bedroom if you want privacy," he said.

Namjoon looked at the members and said, "I want Jin, Hyung.

"Seokjin smiled and hugged Namjoon, "So much for not telling them right," he laughed softly.

Namjoon laughed, though it sounded more like a snort due to his crying.His face went red, and he buried it in Seokjin's top."Why am I crying?" I don't know what I'm feeling," he said

The members laughed at his rambling."Sorry, am I rambling?" he asked.

After chuckling, Yoongi approached him. Yes, but if it weren't the case, you wouldn't be Namjoon," he added, hugging Namjoon.

Namjoon looked at the others and said, Well, what are you guys waiting for?Each member went to hug Namjoon."I love you guys," he said

"We love you too, Namjoonie," they said.
