Chapter 10

"But..." Before Suga could process what had just happen, the man on the other line hung up the phone. "****, Joonie what did you sign us up for?" No sooner had he hung up did he hear the front door open and a slew of loud voices entered the house as the door slammed shut.

He closed his laptop, picked up the sleeping baby and headed towards the voices. "How was it?"

RM shrugged putting Taehyung down on the ground and throwing his black bookbag on the island. How he could be so exhausted already was beyond him.

"It was alright." He huffed, shrugging off his jacket. "Did you by any chance find my phone?"

Suga tried to smile but the sour look on his husband's face told him that he had not had a good experience at the zoo, but the younger man normally got like this when he hadn't eaten.

"Yeah and JB called, he and Jackson are on their way. Why didn't you tell me that we were having guests?" The voice that spoke to him was decidedly clam, with a hint of malice.

RM shrugged pinching the bridge of his nose and began to put the contents of the bag away. "I'm sorry, baby,  it slipped my mind."

"It slipped your mind, you have a 150 iq and it just slipped your mind?" He asked feeling more and more irritated, he wasn't up for entertaining tonight, let alone with Jackson(who seemed to have more energy than his kids) and his husband. "Well then you better have something to feed them, I'm too tired to cook."

"Don't worry about it Mr. Grumpy pants, they're treating us to a meal today. JB spent all day cooking and he wanted to treat you to some homemade Korean food and dessert." The younger man rolled his eyes, he wasn't in the mood to fight and he sure as he'll wasn't going to give his husband a reason to pick a fight with him. "Did you manage to get some work done?" Nam-joon asked changing the subject. He took baby Kook from the older and cradled the baby to his chest.

"Yes I did. Kookie was the definition of good today. I nursed him around the time you left and he's been sleeping since." Said Suga, he smiled fondly rubbing a thumb over the baby's cheeks. "You look tired."

"I hate going to the zoo on a Sunday afternoon, its always so fucking packed and you can never enjoy anything."

"I can take them next time and you can stay here and have some time to yourself, god knows you've earned it."

Suga peppered his husband's lips with a few chaste kisses, noticing that his husband was fully relaxed for the first time since he'd walked through the door. "White or red wine?"

"Red and maybe a few beers."

"Sounds good." Said Suga, "go sit down and I'll put the rest of the things away. How come there's still three sandwiches left?"

"Seok-jin ate his sandwich but Hobi and Tae gave me a hard time and they didn't want to so I gave them the graham cracker bears instead." Namjoon says, "I didn't have the energy to fight with them."

Yoongi nodded his understanding, "you didn't eat?"

Nam-joon was silent. He hadn't had the time; between Taehyung and Ho-seok's tantrums, he had no time. The baby on his chest was being fussy and he stood up quickly walking the length of the room. Jungkook was always a bit crankier than his other children when he was waking up and not because he was a baby. He got his grumpyness from Yoongi, neither of them liked to be woken up before they were ready.

Jungkook let's out hard sob his tiny body trembling in his Daddy's arms. The younger man stops pacing and begins to bounce the baby, gently patting his diapered bum. That's the scene Jackson and JB walked into when they entered Min household.

The crying seemed to only get louder. "Bad timing then?" Jackson asks over the now screaming baby.

Yoongi shuts the front door and leads his two friends to the kitchen. "RM just woke him up and he's very unhappy about it." Said Suga, a smile on his face,  "let me help you with those."

JB walked over to where Nam-joon was standing bouncing the baby and held out his arms. "You two need a break, give him here."

No sooner had he handed Jungkook off to his friend did the baby stop crying. The three men watched in disbelief as the baby's cries died down to a quiet whimper. "You have a pacifier on hand?"

Yoongi fumbled in his pocket and pulled out a pacifier with Tigger's face on it and walked it over to the younger man. "Thank you very much. How was the zoo Nam-joon?" RM shook his head a sour look on his face. It was all JB needed to know that the zoo was currently off topic.

"Where are the other three?" Asked Jackson.

"Probably in the play room. I'll go get them." The young man says, he grabbed his phone slipping it into his pocket and ascended the stairs.

"Oh bring down the nappy bag, Jungkook will most likely need a change." Suga called after him.

When Nam-joon opened the door to the playroom, his children were curled up, cuddled into each other on the bed. Both Hobi and Tae were resting their heads on Jin's shoulder, as the older boy read from the open book. He watched contentedly for a few moments listening to how well his son's reading skills had improved. For the moment he was, content.

He came into the bedroom and just grinned at the picture on the bed. He pulled out his phone and snapped a few pictures (because Suga would kill him if he didn't capture such a sweet moment). The flash caught Hobi's attention and he looked away from the book over at his daddy. "You three hungry? Uncle JB and Jackson are downstairs waiting to see you." He grinned, lifiting Hobi in his arms and then slipped his phone back in his pocket.
