"Noona, can we has ice cream for dessert?" Jimin asked, as the other littles peeked around the corner.

"Oh, they sent you in here to ask, didn't they?" I asked, not being able to help but smirk at their cuteness.

"Yeah, we wanted ice cream but Kookie says we gots to ask you." he responded.

"Well, I shouldn't beacause you already had cookies today, BUT since it's a special occasion, a little ice cream wouldn't hurt." I smiled. They all bolted around the corner giggling.

"Can we has sprinkles too?" Tae asked, giving me the biggest grin.

"Yes, you can have sprinkles." I laughed, getting out some small bowls. I gave them all a small serving so that way they didn't have a crazy amout of sugar this late in the evening.

"Noona can we take a bath?" Jinnie asked as he licked the last of his ice cream off his spoon.

"You can, but I don't have a big bathtub like at Uncle Yoongi's house, so I am afraid you will have to take turns." I replied, shrugging at them.

"Nevermind, I not wants to be alone." Jimin said, chewing on his lip.

"Can we watch a movie?" Tae asked, handing me his empty bowl.

"Sure, what do you guys want to watch?" I responded, taking the rest of the empty bowls.

"Mmmmm Zootopia?" Kookie suggested.

"Ok, why don't you boys all go get comfy on the couch and I will get the movie on." I replied. They all ran and jumped on the couch as I pulled some blankets out of a chest and put them over the littles.

"Wait! I forgot bunny!" Kookie shouted, jumping up from the couch. We waited for a minute until Kookie came down with four stuffies in his arms.

"I gonna share my stuffies." he smiled as he handed the boys each one before climbing in between them.

"Thanks Kookie!" Jinnie said, squeezing the stuffie to his chest. I started the movie and went upstairs to start getting the bedroom ready for them with a bunch of blankets and pillows. I didn't have the fairy lights to put in but I had recently bought Kookie a star projector for his ceiling; one of the many things I tried to use to coax him into headspace. I used this opportunity to get a few more things done around the house and take a quick shower while they were all distracted. I was almost done with my shower when I heard a knock at the door.

"Come in!" I called, knowing full well I wouldn't be able to hear whoever it was through the closed door.

"Mommy, something bad happen." Kookie said with a concerned voice. I quickly shut the water off and peeked out of the curtain at him.

"Hand me that towel baby and tell me what happened." I said, pointing to the towel hanging.

"Um, well Taetae has a accident and he won't come out of the bathroom." Kookie said, handing me the towel.

"Oh, poor thing. Alright, well I am going to get dressed and I will be out to help. You want to come with me to try to get Tae to take a bath and get changed?" I asked, wrapping the towel around myself.

"Ok Mommy. You gots to be nice to Taetae cause he crying and says he wants to go home." Kookie said, his face turning down in a frown.

"I will be nice, baby. If I give him a hug and try to make him feel better, you won't be angry with me, right?" I asked, walking to my closet.

"I not be mad. You can even give Taetae kissies cause I want him to stay here and when I sad, Mommy's kissies maked me feel better." Kookie answered, following me.

"You are the sweetest boy. How did I get so lucky to have such a perfect baby?" I asked, turning and cupping his cheeks, placing a chaste kiss on his lips. He blushed and gave me a small smile, looking at the floor.

"Which bathroom is he in, baby?" I asked, putting on some clothes.

"My bathroom." He replied, turning around and flushing pink.

"Baby, would you like to take a bath with him? I think two of you can fit, since you and I fit in my bathtub." I smiled.

"But that make Jinnie and Jiminie sad. " Kookie said, playing with his bunny's ear.

"I guess I can let them take a bath together after you and Tae are done, if you want." I said, walking out of my closet, now dressed.

"Mkay! I go and get some clothes!" he said, leaning toward me and kissing me on the cheek.

"Kookie, would you mind grabbing some for Tae too? He will need some underwear and some pjs to borrow." I said, as he started walking.

"Ok, I get some for him too!" he called as he bolted off to his room. I sighed as I walked toward the top of the stairs, checking on Jin and Jimin. Luckily they were still cuddled on the couch, watching the movie.

"Boys, Taetae and Kookie are gonna take a bath and when they are done, if you want, you two can take a bath together, ok?" I called, making them both grin.

"Thank you Noona!" Jinnie called out.

"We gets to take a baaaath!" Jiminie said in a sing-songy voice. I chuckled as I walked back toward Kookie's bathroom and softly knocked on the door. I could hear muffled cries coming from behind the door.

"Taetae, sweetie, it's Noona. Can I come in?" I called through the door. The only thing I could hear was a whimper. I turned the knob and opened the door slowly, seeing him sitting in the empty bathub. He looked at me, sucking in shuddering breaths.

"Noona, I wants my Daddy!" he cried, covering his face with his hands.

"What's the matter sweet boy?" I asked, sitting on the edge of the tub.

"I has a accident!" he blubbered, still keeping his face covered. I put my hand on one side of his head and leaned it over onto my leg. I pet my hand softly through his hair, shushing him in a soothing manner.

"It's perfectly ok, Tae. Everyone has accidents, so don't feel bad, sweetie. We can get you a bath, and get you all cleaned up, and we can pretend it never happened." I said, still stroking his head.

"B-but I wants Daddy!" he whimpered, sniffling.

"I tell you what. How about I call your daddy and let you talk to him, then we can get you a bath and all cleaned up. Kookie will even take a bath with you! Then after, if you still want to go home, I will take you home, ok?" I offered, hoping by that point he would be in a better frame of mind and willing to stay. He looked up at me, his face all pink and tear-stained.

"Pinky promise?" he asked, quietly. I smiled and reached out my hand, locking my pinky in his.

"Pinky promise. Now why don't you come with me to my room so we can call your daddy and then get you in that bath." I said, standing up and offering him my hand. He nodded and took my hand, standing up and stepping out of the tub. He looked so pitifully upset, it made me feel bad for him that Hobi wasn't here. I continued to hold his hand as I led him to my bedroom where Kookie was waiting, sitting on my bed.

"You feel all better Taetae?" Kookie asked, slipping off the edge of the bed as we walked over. Tae shook his head as he sniffled, staring at the floor.

"We are gonna call his daddy so he can talk to him and make him feel better." I said, picking up my cell phone from the nightstand and dialing Hoseok.

"Something had to have happened for you to be calling me."

"Hey Hobi. I have you on speaker and Tae wanted to talk to you." I said, holding the phone more in his direction. His face scrunched back up as soon as he heard Hobi's voice and he started crying again.

"Daddyyyyyy I want you!" he cried, wiping his face with his hands.

"What's wrong, buddy? What happened?"

"I has a accident!" he whimpered, making me feel bad for him. I rubbed his back as I stood closer to him.

"Aw, my baby boy. Don't cry or you will make Daddy sad! It is ok that you had an accident, baby. No one is mad at you, and no one will make fun of you."

"N-Noona says she gonna give me and Kookie a bath." he said, his voice still small.

"See? You are going to be well taken care of, baby boy. Daddy loves you very very much and when you come home tomorrow, I will give you lots of loves and cuddles, and we will spend the whole day together. How does that sound?"

"Ok, Daddy. I try to be a big boy." he said, wiping his face and trying not to cry anymore.

"I will check back with you in a little bit after all the baths are done and things have calmed down a little bit." I said, still rubbing Tae's back.

"Sounds good, Noona. Thank you for taking good care of my Taetae. I love you baby boy!"

"I love you too Daddy." he replied, a small smile coming over his face. We hung up and Jungkook took Tae's hand before leading him into the bathroom. I was glad to see him feeling a little bit better, but hoped I could get a smile on his face before the bath was over, so he could stay.
