Her Husband, My Love [Yoonseok | Sope | Taejinjoon | Jikook ]
How Could I Not Love A Man Like That?
Hoseok
I had been terribly lost in a world of my own yesternight.
A smile rises on his heart shaped lips, growing wider when the boy his eyes have been yearning to gaze upon looks to him, a smile also on his thin lips.
Yoongi
I am certain you were.
He was wearing the most basic clothes, yet he still looked so prim, and proper. Too bad only he seemed to come to that conclusion.
Yoongi
But I must say, I was not expecting to see you today.
He scratches the back of his head before he stares down at his feet, terribly embarrassed. He was so excited to see the boy that he'd forgotten to make it known he'd been stopping by.
Hoseok
I apologize for the abruptness of my appearance I just... I'm not sure anyone but you cares for my nonsensical rants.
He chuckles nervously, and he watches as Yoongi stands from the chair he had been seated in on his porch before he makes his way closer to Hoseok, who stood at the very base of the House's steps.
Yoongi
I'd like to think it is them who are too busy being morons to appreciate the beauty of your thoughts.
Hoseok smiles timidly and as he sees Yoongi take a seat on the steps, he follows, and he blocks out the judgmental voice of his mom that shouts in the very back of his head to get up, and stop dirtying his trousers.
Hoseok
Oh Yoongi, You have too much admiration for me. I am not close to being worthy.
He pauses for a minute before he gains the courage look over at the younger boy.
Hoseok
But, Perhaps I could speak to you of my dreams. I've been dying to.
He practically moans, he has so many thoughts he wanted to share with his friend. His only friend. The only one he needed.
For as long as he can remember, it has always been them, Just him and Yoongi. The way it was always to be.
Yoongi
Go on then. I'll hear it.
He smiles once more before he begins.
Hoseok
I headed up, I don't know how, but I went up past the trees, past the tall buildings, even past those fluffy clouds staring down at us right now.
Hoseok
It is difficult to even begin to explain. Scared, I was, but not as much as I was thrilled.
Hoseok
I went beyond the sad blue of the sky, and I have not even the smallest clue what it could have been, but it was magnificent.
Hoseok
They always say "reach until you touch the stars, Hoseok." And I touched them with my own two hands. The burning bright lights up above, Yoongi.
Hoseok
I wanted to bring it back with me, but as I tried to grab it, I was rudely woken by the screams of my wretched mother.
He smiles the brightest he had all day, the highlights of his days were always whenever he could speak with Yoongi. Having him near made him happy beyond words.
Yoongi
You deserve it though, have they not told you rich folk not to steal?
Yoongi laughs a bit, and he covers his mouth as he usually does and Hoseok doesn't know how many times he'll have to tell him not to hide his laughter before he truly stops.
Hoseok
They don't need to, it is deeply woven in us since the very day we take our first breath.
Hoseok
But you don't understand, Yoongi.
Yoongi sighs a bit, and Hoseok turns more to him, ranting was almost their secret language. Hoseok's safe place.
Yoongi
What do I not understand?
Hoseok
I would steal a thousand times over for you.
Yoongi looks at him with mouth wide open but it eventually morphs into a polite smile before he shakes his head with a soft chuckle.
Yoongi
Don't speak nonsense now, Hoseok, you're too brilliant to-
Hoseok lifts his gloved hand and he places it over Yoongi's soft thin lips and Hoseok gazes at them for a second before his eyes finds Yoongi's, and he speaks.
Hoseok
I wanted to bring all the stars for you. So you could see with those big beautiful brown eyes of yours that...
He thinks for a while, trying to find the best way to express himself. The clearest way.
Hoseok
That regardless of what they utter, you are brighter than any star that shines above.
Hoseok
The brightest of any star in my universe.
At that Yoongi looks away, and he removes Hoseok's finger from his lips before he sighs.
Yoongi
You say you are not worthy of my praise, even when so brilliant, yet even with the mediocre education I have received, you still speak so highly of me.
He sounds a bit touched, almost grateful yet not.
Hoseok
Even with the lack of proper education, you're as smart as me. If I were to be honest, it scares me to think of how immaculate you would be if you had even half the resources I do.
That makes Yoongi laugh again, how badly had they beat down his self-confidence?
Yoongi
You have set your expectations of me far too high, lower it otherwise you will only be disappointed in the future.
Hoseok
You could never disappoint me.
Hoseok tells, and he meant it, in his eyes, Yoongi was nothing short of perfection.
Yoongi
I am certain those were the exact words my parents said to themselves the day I was birth, and how quickly they took back their words.
He ponders for a bit, a small smile on his face. A sad one.
Yoongi
It is a bit sad, frankly.
Yoongi
If you do not stop with all these praises, I might shed a tear or two when you finally realize I'm right.
He attempts at a joke but Yoongi had failed to understand that Hoseok was being serious, about all he said.
Hoseok
But you're wrong. I will love you forever Yoongi, always. No matter what happens.
Yoongi
You shouldn't speak like that, Hoseok.
He warns, and his smile had disappeared fully now.
He asks, as though he didn't know why.
Yoongi
Because men don't speak like that, especially not to each other.
Yoongi
Save your tender words for whatever beautiful girl you meet in school, as will I.
Yoongi explains, and Hoseok groans before he rolls his eyes.
Hoseok
You poor thing, you let them corrupt your mind. How sad.
Yoongi looks back over at him, an eyebrow raised, and their eyes lock again. But only for a few seconds before Yoongi had given in and looked away.
Hoseok
My love is not limited to just a woman.
Hoseok
My love is limited to a man who, a man who listens to me like he'd rather not be anywhere else.
Hoseok
How could I not love a man like that?
Hoseok questions, and he smiles as he ends, knowing he meant every word.
Yoongi
You absolute moron.
Yoongi groans frustratedly before he shakes his head, and he turns to face Hoseok.
Yoongi
Go home. It will be dinner time soon. Your family is missing you.
Yoongi nods, and he stands to get up and head back inside his home, but Hoseok continues before he could.
Hoseok
Only if you tell me you will yearn for me to come back.
Hoseok smiles as Yoongi's eyes fall shut and his head lowers in defeat. He could not get rid of Hoseok could he? No. No, he could not.
Yoongi
How could I yearn for you when you're always near? I know you pass by everyday just to stare at me. It is one of the many weird things you do, my friend.
Hoseok
I thought I was being rather stealthy.
Hoseok pouts, Has Yoongi been seeing him all this time? He must've seemed like a creep.
Hoseok sighs but he nods, mainly because Yoongi was halfway through the door of his house. Just as he closes the door, Hoseok whispers lowly.
and he makes his way home, with his mind along the journey, flooding him with baseless thoughts.
Love Bite
Taehyung
Hoseok, you came.
Hoseok
Is this not where I live?
He questions, removing his hat to let his hair breathe. He places the hat on the hat stand before he makes his way to the bottom of the staircase, waiting for Taehyung to finish descending from it.
Taehyung
I could ask you the same, you're always with that friend of yours.
Hoseok
Well, at least I have a friend, have you?
Hoseok laughs and he follows behind Taehyung to the kitchen, where his mom was busy cooking. Taehyung takes a seat around dining table before he speaks.
Taehyung
Mother, Hoseok is being rather mean to me.
Hoseok
I just asked a polite question. That is all.
Mrs. Jung
Taehyung, mind your language.
Mrs. Jung
And Hoseok, be nice to your brother.
Hoseok
Speaking of brother, where is our Jimin?
He says looking around. School had ended around 2 hours ago, shouldn't he be home.
Taehyung
He left with Jungkook to watch a circus show in town.
Hoseok
Really? I hadn't known there was a circus show today. If I had known, I would've taken, Yoongi.
Taehyung
Do you not get tired of him? You see him all day, every day.
Taehyung questions as he picked up his dad's newspaper, and he reads through it a bit.
Hoseok
I could never get tired of seeing him. He's lovely.
He mumbles before he finds the page with the puzzle, and he groans as he realizes his dad had already done it, even after he had told him not to do it.
Taehyung
Let's go out and play.
Taehyung suggests, putting the newspaper away.
Hoseok
Are we not too old to be playing?
Mrs. Jung
15 years is far too young to stop playing Hoseok, go be with your brother.
Hoseok sighs as he watched Taehyung stand, happy with what his mother had said.
Hoseok
Fine, but if by chance I break a leg, father will not be thrilled.
Taehyung
Do not break your leg then, genius.
Hoseok rolls his eyes, but he still takes Taehyung's hand, and he lets him drag him outside, all the way to the big tree before he lets him go.
Hoseok does as he's told.
Taehyung
Now, find me with your eyes closed.
Hoseok
What? I cannot do that?
Taehyung
Yes, you can. Do not be boring.
Hoseok
This is why you need friends.
Taehyung
I don't need friends when I have you brother, now find me.
Hoseok groans before he takes a step forward, and he falls to the floor face first.
He whines loudly as he lifts himself onto his knees, his suit was completely covered in mud. His spent so much on this suit for him.
Hoseok
I will make waste with you, you... you absolute bastard.
He speaks as Taehyung laughs at him, seemingly not very far away.
Hoseok wipes some of the mud off himself before he turns to Taehyung slightly, and he sees him trying to run away. He runs after the other to give him the same fate.
Taehyung runs away, laughing as if Hoseok wasn't planning just what way to kill him. In a matter of minutes, Hoseok manages to tackle him and they both fall to the floor.
Taehyung
My apologies. I... I'm sorry.
He says between laughter as Hoseok rubs his muddy hands all over the white of Taehyung's shirt, wiping all the mud on it and he laughs as Taehyung whined in protest.
Taehyung
No, please mom will kill me.
Hoseok
Not before I kill you.
Taehyung
You resembles shît.
Taehyung erupts in laughter again and Hoseok can't help it, he just laughs as well as he picks some grass from next to Taehyung's head before he drops it all over Taehyung's face.
Hoseok laughs louder when he realizes some of the grass had fallen into Taehyung's mouth. Hoseok quickly stands, running away from the younger, and it is then he sees Jimin walking through the gate.
Hoseok makes his way straight over to Jimin, quickly hiding behind the other to shield himself from Taehyung.
Hoseok
Taehyung wishes to kill me.
Hoseok nods, and he hides closer to Jimin as Taehyung runs up to them.
Hoseok
Whatever do you mean? Good?
Jimin
Yes. You left me at school today. You had not even the decency to notify me of your departure.
Hoseok
I had forgotten. I had duties to attend to.
Jimin
I ponder what Yoongi would think of you suggesting he is a duty.
Hoseok
I imagine he'd find it cute.
Jimin
Or maybe, he'd finally start ignore you.
Hoseok
Say a thing to Yoongi, and I will tell Jungkook your actual height.
Jimin
No one. Hoseok's just-
Hoseok
What happened to your neck?
Jimin
Huh? What are you on about?
Taehyung
Oh wow. Did something bite you? You're skin is as red as a tomato.
Taehyung says as he touches and Jimin chuckles nervously.
Taehyung
You better hope it's not a wasp. Sir Yoon died of a wasp bite.
Jimin and Hoseok look at him in shock and confusion. Was he telling the truth?
Hoseok
What? Jimin's going to die?
Jimin
Would you both calm down? I am not dying any time soon. I... You guys cannot tell anyone.
Jimin
I... It's a love bite.
Hoseok's eyes widen at that and he looks to Taehyung who had just been confused.
Jimin
Has your hearing gone bad? I said it is a love bite.
Taehyung
I had heard you, but I am unaware of what that is.
Jimin
Forget it, Taehyung.
Jimin
It's nothing important.
Jimin
I'll tell you tomorrow.
Hoseok
Because, you're too young.
Taehyung
Are we not all 15?
Jimin
Exactly. How can you not know what a love bite is?
Hoseok
He has no friends, how could he know what it is.
Taehyung
Having no friends is a luxury actually and you two have only one friend each, so please be quiet.
Jimin
I have 3 friends thank you very much.
Jimin
I am going to my room to study. You two should go get cleaned up.
Hoseok
One love bite, and he thinks he's the boss, huh?
Taehyung
Are you not going to educate me on what a love bite is?
Hoseok says, pinching Taehyung's cheek delicately.
Yoongi
Mother, do you need help?
Mrs. Min
Yoongi, for a man, you sure love spending time in the kitchen with me.
Yoongi
I like cooking with you. Does that really make me less of a man?
Mrs. Min
No but, I just think you'd prefer going out with your dad for work.
Yoongi
Dad despises the thought of being seen alongside me. I am too small, remember?
Mrs. Min
Like I have said a thousand times, you will grow eventually.
Mrs. Min
You're only 14 after all, in a month you will be 15.
Mrs. Min
By then, you will be even taller than me.
Yoongi
I sure hope so. Maybe then dad will love me again.
Mrs. Min
He does love you my dear, he is just truly bad at showing it.
Yoongi
Yeah... Men shouldn't show affection to each other, right?
Mrs. Min
Right. It's a bit weird.
Mrs. Min
Have you finished making the sauce?
Yoongi
In a second or two, I will be.
Jimin sighs as he looks into the mirror, and he traces his hand over his love bite. A smile finds his lips as he remembers earlier.
School had just ended and he was on his way to find Hoseok when he bumped into Jungkook.
They spoke for a bit until Jungkook asked
Jungkook
Have you ever seen a circus show before?
Jimin
I had not even been aware that something like that existed. I don't know exactly what a circus is?
He smiles with how shocked Jungkook was at his lack of knowledge.
Jungkook
You do not? Well, take my hand. I'll make sure you have a great time tonight.
Jimin
Should we not ring Namjoon and Seokjin?
He asks as he followed Jungkook, he knew Jungkook was the adventurous type. He would always drag Jimin away to the weirdest places. conveniently every time Namjoon and Seokjin were too busy to join them.
Jungkook
I did, they are busy.
They get to the circus ground pretty quickly. It wasn't too crowd but there were still alot of people.
Jimin
Okay. Should we sit in the back.
Jungkook
Scared of the crowd.
Jimin
A little bit. Sorry.
Jimin
I should be. Have you ever seen a man act so cowardly at the mere sight of people.
Jungkook
No, but I think it is quite cute.
He takes Jimin's hand and he guides him toward a proper seat, one that was pretty secluded.
Jungkook
Now, prepare to be blown away by the talent of these people.
Jimin stares at him for a while, he had been so excited. His smile, bright and it made Jimin smile a bit too before he looked away.
To say that Jimin was shocked was an understatement. He was impressed to say the least. He actually envies the people performing at the moment. He wishes he could join them but he guesses the next best thing was observing.
After an hour, the show had finally ended and Jimin was glad Jungkook had taken him to see this.
Jimin
That was utterly amazing.
He says, a wide smile on his face as he turned to Jungkook. A lot of the people that were in the arena were starting to leave.
Jungkook
I knew you'd like it.
Jimin
I wish I could move like them.
He admits, and he expects Jungkook to laugh or mock him.
Jungkook
I know. I see the way you watch the female dancers at school.
Jungkook
At first, I though you just liked seeing women prance about. I used to get jealous, until I realize you seemed more like you wanted to join them, rather than just watch them like all the other perverts at our school.
Jimin
You watch me that keenly to notice.
He teases, fiddling with the buttons of his vest.
Jungkook
Yeah. Sorry, if that's weird.
He scratches the back of his neck, laughing awkwardly.
Jimin
No. I... I watch you sometimes too.
Jimin
When you are unaware of my gaze you... you look gorgeous and I often can't look away.
Jungkook doesn't say anything making Jimin panic. Why would he say that?
Jimin raises an eyebrow? What did he mean?
Jungkook
I do notice, I just... chose not to discuss it.
Jimin looks away, embarrassed. Has really noticed this entire time.
Jungkook
You make it very obvious.
Jimin
Oh my, this is beyond embarrassing.
Jungkook
Don't be embarrassed. I like it.
Jungkook
I like when you see me.
Jungkook says,, and he doesn't look at the other, he just looks ahead as the last of the people leave the area.
Jimin
Don't feel the need to lie to protect my feelings. I know I'm weird.
Jungkook
Can I be honest with you?
He asks, finally looking at Jimin.
Jungkook
I... I had not asked Namjoon nor Seokjin to join us here. In fact, I just wanted to be here with you.
He looks away a bit, seemingly nervous.
He says, struggling not to smile.
Jungkook
I... I am not certain.
Jungkook
I just... I like being around you.
Jimin looks away from Jungkook when Jungkook looks to him, as he feels himself smiling a bit too wide.
Jungkook
Don't look away. I beg.
Jimin looks back shortly after and he tries to supress his smile but he can't as his eyes meets Jungkook's.
Jungkook
I'm fond of your smile.
Jimin
Stop. Otherwise, I will pop my jaw smiling to wide.
Jungkook
I know a way to stop you from smiling.
Jimin looks at him curiously, he had not the slightest understanding of what Jungkook had meant. He genuinely thought the other was going to tell him something.
Jimin
Oh? really. Tell me.
Jungkook
I... I'll show you instead.
Jimin's eyes stay stuck to Jungkook's, and he watches as the older leans in, and then suddenly his lips are on his.
Jimin's eyes widen for a few seconds before they fall shut, and he lets himself be molded into the kiss.
His hand finds Jungkook's cheeks before he leans in. His lips move against Jungkook's so smoothly. The other's lips were nothing short of soft, and he was getting so hooked on him. Why is he enjoying this so much?
Jungkook pulls away for a second before he kisses at Jimin's jawline,, and a moan leaves Jimin's lips making him embarrassed and then he remembers where they were.
Jungkook
Everyone's departed. Do not worry.
Jimin feels the tender kisses move down to his neck,, and he moans again, not meaning to but Jungkook was so good at what he was doing? and he starts to wonder why.
Jungkook's kisses soon turn to nips and when he takes a soft bite, Jimin makes the loudest moan yet and Jungkook's hand finds his mouth, suppressing his loudness.
And then he starts sucking on the skin and Jimin's eyes can't help but squeeze shut and a series of moans leave his lips against Jungkook's hand.
Jungkook's sucking comes to an end, and he kisses his way back up to Jimin's mouth after he lowers his hand, and Jimin moans against his lips just as he pulls away slowly.
Jungkook
I... I've been wanting to do that for a while now.
Jimin
I... We shouldn't... This... It's wrong.
Jimin leans in again, and he kisses Jungkook once, then twice, then three times before he pulls away gulping harshly.
Jungkook smiles at him, clearly very happy to hear that.
Jungkook
Do you want me to walk you home?
Jimin smiles, and he nods, before he stands, and he lets Jungkook lead him out. The whole walk home his lips tingled.
And still his lips were tingling just thinking about it. He had his first kiss, with Jungkook.
And he enjoyed it, more than he should. Right now he was trying to figure out how to hide the hickey, but it was too high up to be hidden.
He hates that he likes that, everyone would see that he was owned, but that's it. He wasn't. It was just a love bite, belonging to Jungkook, but he himself wasn't Jungkook's, and he's starting to realize that maybe he'd like that.
Hoseok
Busy admiring your love bite.
Jimin
I thought you were done teasing me.
He says as Hoseok closes the door behind him.
Hoseok asks, making Jimin gulp. Why did he even care?
Jimin
No one you would know.
Hoseok
Are you certain I do not?
He says, as if he knew something and he sits on Jimin's waiting for a response.
Jimin
What are you saying.
Hoseok
Come on, let me have the gossip, brother.
Hoseok tells and Jimin sighs before he walks over to the other and he sits next to him on the bed.
Jimin
I... My... A friend of mine... who is a girl, of course
Hoseok
My mind seems to think it was Jungkook.
Jimin chuckles nervously and for way too long.
Jimin
I... No, Of course not.
Hoseok
Okay, so it is certainly Jungkook.
Jimin groans before he looks to Hoseok, with sad eyes.
Jimin
I... You can't tell anyone.
Jimin
I... It was just an in the moment thing, Hoseok. It won't happen again. I know that it's wrong and-
Hoseok
Calm down, brother. I possess only one question for you.
He says and Jimin looks down.
Hoseok
Do you like him? Be honest with me. I won't judge you.
Hoseok
Well, then I'm happy for you.
Jimin looks to him, almost shocked.
Jimin
You are not appalled?
Hoseok
Why would I be? If he caters for you like the prince you are, must he not be deemed worthy of your heart?
Jimin
It's just... we... Both of us are men Hoseok. I...
Hoseok
I believe we should be with whom we want to be with.
Hoseok
Don't worry too much about the fact that he's also a man. If you take a liking for him, and he treats you well then you should see where it heads.
He says and he hugs his older brother, with a sigh.
Jimin
I was worried you would despise me.
Hoseok
You and Taehyung may be annoying and despicable but by the day ends you both are still my brothers and so whatever it is I will always love and stand by you both. No matter what.
Jimin
I love you too, brother.
They hug tightly before Taehyung waltz into the room, demanding that they go to dinner and for once they actually listen to him.

Thank you for reading ♡ i hope you like it
I want a wife, not you
Mr. Min
Have you met any women as of yet?
Yoongi looks over to his father as he drank a bit of his soup. He gulps before he responds.
Yoongi
Uhm... No, not yet.
Mr. Min
Of course, you have not. As a man, you need a woman by your side. What'll happen to you when your mom can't tend to you as before?
Yoongi
I'm trying hard father but-
The man had no interest in Yoongi's excuses.
Mr. Min
I'm sure your friend Hoseok has all the women bowing at his feet. Ask him to set you up with a female.
Mr. Min
Do as I say Yoongi.
The man order and he stood, leaving his wife and Yoongi at the table.
He whispers and his mother, rests a hand on his shoulder offering him support.
Hoseok
As my birthday is in a few months, I would like to host a party.
Hoseok tells, as he sat in his chair at the dining table. Everyone had already started eating as he had been late, as usual.
Mr. Jung
A party? You are only turning 18 my child. A party is not essential.
Dari
A party would be delightful. Being away for so long, I've missed hanging out with my brothers. This party could give us some real bonding time.
Hoseok looks over to his sister, she had returned from Busan just last night. She usually stayed there with her mother, but she comes to visit every now and then. She had gotten taller in the few months she's been away.
Jimin
Also, Hoseok has all the women fawning over him. If he hosts this party he could be married by year's end.
Hoseok turns to Jimin, who sat next to him, with a glare. Was he trying to set him up?
Hoseok
Jimin, quiet down. I already made it known to you all, I have no desire to marry. Not yet, at least.
Taehyung
Marriage is pointless, the way I see it. Can two people not just be in love without marriage?
Taehyung raises, picking at his food.
Mrs. Jung
You children really have your own way, huh?
Hoseok
You raised us to be outspoken mother, blame yourself.
Mr. Jung
Right now, we must focus on getting Dari married. She is fresh and I'm sure many men will be lining up for you.
She rolls her eyes, as she eats her food.
Mr. Jung
Well then, hurry and choose one.
Mr. Jung
And you boys, even if marriage is not something you want, you must act accordingly and do it anyway. You need to bring children into this world so that we can carry on our family's legacy.
Jimin and Taehyung oblige but Hoseok was the problem child, his own parents called him that. He was always the child that did what he wanted, and when he wanted not caring what others said.
Hoseok
I'm not marrying yet, dad
He tells and his father lets out a deep breath before he folds his arms and he looks at Hoseok, with a dead expression.
Mr. Jung
Hoseok, why must you always insist on being so insolent. You are upsetting me.
Hoseok
Well, I can't just let myself be forced to do something I don't want to.
Mr. Jung
What is the reason why you don't want to be married?
Hoseok
I.... I just do not wish to. Not yet.
Mr. Jung
There is no reason, you just enjoy playing with my peace.
Hoseok
Father, I care not for your peace. Frankly, It is not like you care much for mine. I just do not wish to marry yet, I don't know-
Mr. Jung
Shut your mouth, now.
The man shouts, and the tension around the table is high. Only Hoseok could get his father so riled up.
Mr. Jung
Watch your tone, young man.
Hoseok just laughs softly before he pushes his chair back and he stands.
Mrs. Jung
Wait, son... At least eat first.
Hoseok as he climbs the staircase to his room, and he goes over to his book collection and he grabs his journal from between two books on his bookshelf before he is out the door again.
He passes his family at the dining room before he runs out of the house and he finds himself in the small hut, a bit further from the house. It stood just before the family lake.
This was his little safe place. Where he went when he needed quiet. He would write many of his thoughts down, his little stories.
Some times he did think about submitting them to the newspaper but then he thinks reasonably and stories and poems were the work of women. His stories would probably be seen as mediocre at best so he thought for now, sharing them with Yoongi was the best he could do.
Yoongi was the only audience he'd ever need.
He smiles as an idea popped into his head at his thoughts Yoongi and just like that he begins writing a short story. He really thinks Yoongi was his muse.
Hoseok's eye leaves his journal before he lookd up at the door being pulled open. He smiles as Yoongi's small figure popped through, closing the door behind him.
Hoseok
Yoongi. I... You came to see me? What an odd thing.
He smiles fondly, closing his journal before he sits up and he waits for Yoongi to take a seat next to him.
Yoongi
I... I'm sorry to bother but-
Hoseok
Why, Yoongi we have been acquainted for far over a decade. You should be certain by now that your presence is never a bother.
Hoseok
In fact, I was just feeling a bit under the weather and now I am feeling splendid after seeing you.
Yoongi sighs and he turns away from Hoseok, a little jumpy.
Yoongi
See, this is why I don't make a habit of visiting you.
Yoongi says, and Hoseok expects it to be a joke but he sounded too serious.
Yoongi
You say weird things like that.
Hoseok
I thought you liked when I express myself.
Yoongi
I do, but you speak... to me like as man who is missing his wife would.
Hoseok
What if... that is how I feel?
Yoongi looks at the other, confused. He looks away with a sigh before he speaks again.
Yoongi
I... Hoseok, that is not why I am here.
Hoseok
You're not here to see me?
Hearing the disappointment in Hoseok's voice makes him feel bad. He didn't mind spending time with Hoseok. Honestly, every moment with Hoseok was always fun and a time for him to let loose and do and say what he wanted but right now he had to get himself a wife.
Yoongi
I am but... I... My dad sent me.
Hoseok seemed concerned, as if he was willing to do anything to help and that made Yoongi feel a bit better about asking.
Yoongi
I... You know I am almost 18 now, uhm... way over marriage age so I...
Hoseok
You want to marry me.
Yoongi stops, hearing that made his eyes shoot wide. How could he say that with such seriousness?
Yoongi
Stop joking around. Can you not see I'm being serious.
Hoseok
I was not making a joke.
He says in defeat, he knows he's not supposed to use such vile words, especially not in front of a member of the first class residency and the son of the Chief at that but Hoseok was starting to make him go crazy.
Hoseok
I like it when you swear.
He mutters and Yoongi stands, hands on his hips before he turns back to face Hoseok. Hoseok always had this monotoned way of speaking. Yoongi wasn't sure how he did it and he could never tell what Hoseok was really thinking. When he was joking opposed to when he was being serious because everything sounded the same.
Yoongi
My dad wants you to find me a girl to marry.
He turns to look at the other, so intently it makes Yoongi want to shrink under his gaze.
Yoongi
I know that it is embarrassing but I... I don't know how to attract women. You...
Yoongi
You are eloquent, and you are intelligent, and you're wealthy and....
Yoongi
As for me, I am not.
Yoongi
I just, can you not convince someone to maybe try giving me a chance.
Hoseok says, and Yoongi feels a little exposed to be honest. He hadn't expected that. Hoseok was always so nice and kind to him and he never asked the other for anything so he thought if he just asked for this one thing then surely Hoseok would be able to grant him that, right? but he had guessed wrong.
Yoongi
My dad grows more distressed as every day passes and I still have not yet found a wife. I... You are the only one I am acquainted with that can help.
Yoongi stands from beside the other, he was truly desperate.
Yoongi
I beg of you... Help me.
He pleads as he stared down at Hoseok, with frustrated eyes but the other had not budged. Yoongi could tell that he'd be getting the same answer as before.
Yoongi
Hoseok, I beg you, please. Help me this once. I will not ask you for anything further. I give you my word.
He says, falling to his knees, almost in tears. He knew that if he went home without any good news for his father then he'd be upset.
Hoseok
and get off the floor.
He tells and Yoongi gulps before he sits up and he looks at Hoseok troubled. Why can't he just do this? After all, were they not friends?
Yoongi
I thought... I was a friend to you.
Yoongi whispers as he stands from the floor and he turns to leave but he doesn't get far before Hoseok pulls him back.
Hoseok
Where are you going?
He says, so calmly as if he didn't just have Yoongi pleading at his feet.
Yoongi whispers, tears in his eyes and he pulls his hand out of Hoseok's grip, making the other confused.
Yoongi
If I do not get married I will certain be a bigger joke in society than I have already made myself.
Hoseok
You are not a joke.
Yoongi laughs humorlessly. When would Hoseok learn? He views him way higher than he actually was? and he does appreciate the occasional compliments but at the same time, it negates the struggles that he had to go through, and Hoseok didn't seem to understand that.
Yoongi
You should really get your eyes checked, Hoseok. This entire time you have known me you have refused to see things for what they truly are.
Yoongi
I am not as magnificent as you think I am.
Yoongi
I am tiny, I grew only 2cm in the past year, my body is so thin and I'm terribly shy. You are the only person I'm willing to talk to because... you make me comfortable.
Yoongi
and I just asked you for one thing, one fücking thing. I've never asked anyone for anything for i fear the answer would be no and I... I chose to ask you because... I.. I thought you of all people would try to help me... and you can't just grant me this.
Hoseok
No. I cannot find you a partner except if it is myself.
Yoongi
You are so delusive. You do not love me. You're a man, Hoseok.
He says and he stretches it out for Yoongi to take. So calm, so unbothered and it makes Yoongi calm down a little.
Yoongi
No. I am going home.
Yoongi tells but Hoseok holds him in place so that he couldn't leave.
Hoseok pleads before Yoongi gives in, and he lets the other lead him back to the seat.
Hoseok
I wrote something for you.
He says and he hands Yoongi the journal before the younger spoke.
Yoongi
You know that I don't like to read..
Hoseok
I'll read it to you then.
Yoongi hugs himself as he listened to Hoseok reading his story. Usually Hoseok wrote maybe 1 paragraph of something he found interesting but this was more of a story. Something he suggested that the other do awhile back. He smiles a bit as he listened.
Yoongi
I... You write stories now?
Hoseok
I took your advice.
Yoongi bites his lips and he looks away from the older to stop himself from smiling. It made him a little mirthful knowing Hoseok listened to him.
Hoseok
And I wrote it about you.
Yoongi
What? That person is nothing like me.
He raises an eyebrow, he wrote a story about a troubled prince, he may be troubled but a prince? not at all.
Hoseok
I think perhaps it would be a marvellous day for the world when you to stop feeling so pitiful for yourself all the time. You're always so shy and i think it's time you gain some confidence in yourself and in your feelings.
Hoseok
I... Know you like me too, Yoongi.
Yoongi
Men can't like men, Hoseok.
Yoongi laughs before he turns to Hoseok, and he says with a deadpanned expression.
Yoongi
Have you lost your brain?
Hoseok
If you feel nothing then, I'll leave you alone and I will find you the most beautiful wife.
He says, contemplating whether he should take the other up on his offer or not.
Hoseok
Yes. Kiss me and I'll do it.
Hoseok
But if you do, I am certain you'll recognize that I'm the one you desire, not some girl who you don't care for.
Yoongi looks over at the other, then he looks away. He shouldn't do this but he knew he had to if he was going to ever find himself a wife. The thing is, he has had thoughts of kissing Hoseok before. He's not entirely sure if he won't like it and just saying that makes him want to jump in a well.
Yoongi
I will not and I don't know how to kiss. I've never kissed anyone.
Hoseok whispers and he moves closer to Yoongi, who breathing picks up. Was he really going to do this?
Yoongi's eyes finds Hoseok's for a second but before long he looks away, too nervous to keep his gaze but he doesn't get to collect himself for too long before Hoseok's palm finds his cheek and his face is being fixed so that he was staring at the other again, only this time they were much closer.
Before he could even gather his thoughts, he feels Hoseok's lips against his and gasps a bit at the sudden contact. He was unsure of what to do. He had never done it before. His only experience with kisses were those he saw on TV.
In a matter of seconds he lets his eyes rest and he sinks into the kiss a bit, resting completely against Hoseok. He felt a little surreal. It was just a simple kiss, the touch of lips yet it felt like he was being drained in the best way possible.
Hoseok pulls away, and his gaze lingers on Yoongi for a bit before he speaks.
Hoseok
You cannot convince me that you felt nothing.
He says and Yoongi's eyes finally open but as it does, Hoseok was attacking his lips once more and he just let him. No objection, which was bad on his part because not only had he blown his opportunity of getting a wife but now Hoseok was never going to let him forget about this.
Hoseok pulls away much faster this time and he leaves another quick peck on the younger's lips before he pulls away completely, with the smuggest smile on his lips.
He says, and his hand flies to his mouth as he realizes in full depth what he had just done. He kissed a man. His best friend. He kissed him.
He says and he stands, almost panicked.
Yoongi
I... I'm such a mess. Why would I let you-... Fück.
Hoseok stands and he stops the other from his unnecessary pacing, and he kisses the other's forehead before he pulls him into a hug and Yoongi folds his fist against Hoseok chest.
Yoongi
Stop we... we cant.
All he had to do was push him away.
Hoseok
You know you want me.
One push, that's all. simple.
but it was hard, because it felt so good to be held like that.
Hoseok
You just let me kiss you, Yoongi. Multiple times, you could have pushed me away after the first kiss, but you did not. Admit it, You feel something for me.
He says and he finally pushes the other away, but Hoseok was too stubborn to just let him leave just like that.
Hoseok
You know this means, I won't find you a wife after all.
He whisper yells. He screwed up and he had no one to blame but himself. He got carried away. His father would be so ashamed.
Hoseok
Stop lying to yourself. Admit it, you like me too.
Hoseok
Wouldn't life be easier if you just admitted. it?
Yoongi
You think I haven't thought about what life would be like if I had felt for you the way you claim you feel for me? My family would discard me. Your family would discard you. Then what?
He asks, Hoseok just refused to be logical. They would never work even if he wanted it to.
Hoseok
My family wouldn't. Sure, they'll be upset but they won't get rid of me.
Yoongi
Well, that's great for you.
Yoongi
but still, doesn't change the fact that it's not for me.
Hoseok
We can stay in secret then.
Hoseok suggest and Yoongi groans before he laughs humourlessly. Hoseok just would not listen to reason at all.
Yoongi
No. Honestly, I think it is time this friendship came to an end.
He tells, and probably when he was less heated and more collected he would realize that this was a mistake because his main source of joy and enjoyment in life came from his friendship with Hoseok but, he just needed to distance himself from the other because now he just can't staring at the other's lips and he shouldn't.
Hoseok
You don't mean that.
His usual monotoned voice changes a bit, he sounded saddened, confused, panicked. Yoongi feels bad, to be honest.
Yoongi
I need to find a wife and you need to find one too. You will go on to be a great writer, Hosoek. I don't want you to ruin that because of me. Just.... I hope one day I can read what you release.
He says and he lets his hand slip out from Hoseok's grip as the older speaks.
Hoseok
I will never let you push me away.
He tells and Yoongi sighs before he speaks.
Yoongi
I want a wife Hoseok, Not you.
He says and he doesn't look back at the other, he just quickly made his way away from the hut and he ran straight home, hoping this wasn't a huge mistake.
