Jimin wondered how a lot of things would have turned out if he had never left.

One thing he always wonder was if he would be better at the whole parenting thing.

Taking care of a baby was definitely harder than he had expected. Don't misinterpret him he was absolutely in love with his daughter but it felt odd to have her be his responsibility.

Jimin didn't have much experience with kids. Whenever he was around kids he'd play with them and if they began to cry he'd pass them over to their parents so they could deal with that. Now he was the parent.

He felt pressured and stressed. He watched Yoongi do it as if it came natural to him but it wasn't the case for Jimin. It didn't just come natural to him. Jimin had to figure out how to do things. He had a lot to learn.

He hadn't even told his parents about him being involved in Suji's life yet. To be quite honest he was terrified to do so. He knew they'd be angry but he didn't care. He refused to make the same mistake twice and leave his daughter. The only thing that worried him was his living situation.

Of course he couldn't move back in with Yoongi. That would be wrong and awkward.

When Jimin had lived with Yoongi they had grown closer to one another. They spoke about anything and everything with each other. The pair had so much trust. It was just amazing. Jimin had loved every second of them being together. Hell sometimes it had even felt like they were a couple.

But when he left everything had went down hill. He never expected them to be friends after but he didn't realize just how much everything would get ruined. It felt like Yoongi hated him now. It seemed like Yoongi wanted Jimin as far away from him as possible.

Jimin wanted to reconcile with him. He wanted to fix things and be able to be close to him again especially now that they were co-parenting. Maybe they could even become a family but Jimin knew that task would be difficult for two reasons.

One being Yoongi was trying his hardest to push the boy away. He rarely tried to talk to him about anything that didn't have to do with Suji. If Jimin attempted to make conversation it would end quickly when Yoongi would give him one word answers.

He tried to understand. Yoongi was angry and he had every right to be but it frustrated the younger. He just wanted to sit down with the eighteen year old and discuss everything. He wanted to air out all their issues and fix their problems but he couldn't.

Then came the second issue.

Ten.

The boy seemed to always be around. He clinged to Yoongi like a koala bear. It irritated Jimin to no end. He wanted to grab Ten by his hair and pull him away from his Yoongi. He wanted him as far away from the boy and his daughter.

He hated seeing the pair close together. Hugging and kissing and acting all lovey dovey. It made Jimin sick at the sight.

Why did Ten have to make a move now? He knew Yoongi for a long time and he suddenly now wants to make a move, right after Yoongi just had a baby with someone else? Why?

The worst part is Jimin couldn't even hate him. From the couple of weeks that he has known him, the basketball player had proven to be extremely kind. He never intentionally tried to make him feel uncomfortable. He spoke to Jimin like a friend would. He treated Suji with the utmost care. From the looks of it he made Yoongi happy.

He believes that's what hurts the most. That no matter how much he wishes it was him causing Yoongi to smile that gorgeous wide gummy smile, it wasn't him. It was Ten. So all he could do was sit back and watch the seemingly happy couple.

"That's great babe." Jimin could hear the older whisper. He heard a giggle making him badly want to smack the owner it belonged to. He rolled his eyes silently mimicking the laugh, earning a smile from the baby that laid in his lap.

Jimin was seated in the floor while the pair were on the bed. He had been forced to listen to the shameless flirting from the teens for the past few hours.

"Yoongi." Jimin called out not caring that he was interrupting their conversation. He heard a hum. "Can you go get Suji a bottle? It's almost time to feed her."

"Why can't you get it?" The older asked but Jimin could hear him stand from the bed.

The younger stood up as well. "Because I'm gonna change her. She's wet." He replied standing with the baby in his arms.

"I'll be back." Yoongi mumbled walking out.

Jimin busied himself changing his daughter out of her wet diaper into a clean one. It was a much harder task than he had ever expected it to be. For some reason Suji hated it. The second he would take off the diaper she would cry.

"Shh it's okay my love." He whispered rushing to try to get the process over with. "Where the hell," he trailed off looking at all the stuff in the changing table being unable to find the baby powder.

"If it's the baby powder you are looking for the bottle ran out earlier today but there should be a new one in the top drawer on the right." Ten called out. Even his voice irked Jimin. He rolled his eyes, unknowing that the action had been seen through the reflection of a photo that hung right above the changing table.

"I'm back." Yoongi announced just as Jimin finished buttoning Suji's onesie back up.

Jimin smiled lifting the still crying baby up. "Look Suji daddy's back with milk." He cooed at the baby bouncing her slightly trying to calm her. It didn't work so he just opted to pass her over to her father knowing fully well he'd calm her.

The baby was quick to latch onto the bottle drinking it at an alarming speed. "Geez Suji. Slow down, baby." Yoongi mumbled. Jimin melted at the sight of the two of them. Yoongi holding her was Jimin's favorite sight. He stood close to them slightly brushing his fingers through his daughter's hair.

They looked like the picture perfect little family at that moment.

Ten sat on the bed observing them. A small pang in his heart.
