Bonding Trip

Hoseok
Hoseok
Hello. You're looking quite dapper today.
He says, smiling and as usual Yoongi stares at him with an annoyed expression and he smiles wider before he leans against the baluster.
Hoseok
Hoseok
What? You are not going to greet your most favorite person in the world.
His smile falls when Yoongi doesn't even so much as look his way. Was he upset?
Hoseok
Hoseok
Yoongi?
Hoseok
Hoseok
Are you ignoring me?
He asks, and Yoongi turns away from him, sweeping beneath the verandah chairs.
Hoseok
Hoseok
Yoongi!
Hoseok
Hoseok
What did I do?
He asks, Yoongi only ever ignored him when he did weird things. As far as he knows, he's done nothing to cause Yoongi to act like this.
Hoseok
Hoseok
Talk to me or I'll make this place even harder for you to clean.
He threatens and he pouts when he still gets no reaction.
Hoseok
Hoseok
I can be more annoying, and I know you know you that.
Hoseok
Hoseok
Have it your way...
Hoseok tells and he makes his way off Yoongi's verandah before he stoops to the ground and he grabs a fistful of dirt then he makes his way back onto the verandah.
Yoongi
Yoongi
What the fück is wrong with you?
Yoongi questions as he watches dust fall from Hoseok's hands onto the floor he'd been trying to clean.
Hoseok
Hoseok
I recall Mrs. Min telling you to drop those foul languages, had she not?
Yoongi
Yoongi
You spend one day with someone else, and suddenly my language is an issue to you.
Yoongi retorts and he sighs when he sees a huge smile overtake Hoseok's face. Of course, hearing him say that would make Hoseok go ballistic.
Hoseok
Hoseok
Note that I said, Mrs. Min said so, I have no complaints for it, however...
Hoseok
Hoseok
What's this about me with someone else?
He leans back against the baluster before he smiles at Yoongi, smugly and Yoongi rolls his eyes
Yoongi
Yoongi
How coy of you?
Hoseok
Hoseok
I am genuinely confused.
He tells folding his arms over his chest as Yoongi stopped sweeping to look at him, and their eyes meet for a quarter of a second before Yoongi looks away. He always did that.
Yoongi
Yoongi
You didn't stop by yesterday, or the day before that and then yesterday, I saw you walk by with some other guy.
Yoongi tells, folding his arms too, visibly bothered
Hoseok
Hoseok
Oh Yoongi, had I known you'd catch a case of jealousy, I'd have made sure not to let you see me with Suho.
Yoongi
Yoongi
Suho?
Hoseok
Hoseok
Uh-huh?
Yoongi
Yoongi
I'm not jealous. If anything I was glad there was someone else to take you away from me.
Hoseok
Hoseok
Huh? You see, that's funny because the only way you'd have seen us is if you were actively waiting for me.
Yoongi freezes for a second, and he laughs nervously before he starts sweeping again.
Yoongi
Yoongi
I... I was waiting on father to get back.
Hoseok
Hoseok
Really, cause I saw Mr. Min the day before and we had a small conversation, said he'd be taking some long awaited rest yesterday.
Yoongi
Yoongi
He-
Yoongi pauses and he gulps then stops sweeping and he looks to Hoseok for a second, clearly flustered.
Hoseok
Hoseok
It's fine if you were jealous, Yoongi. I know you'd like to spend every living, breathing moment in my presence.
Yoongi scoffs at that.
Yoongi
Yoongi
Your parents ought to really check you in to see a doctor. This delusion you've got going on is quite frightening, i'm almost worried for you.
Hoseok
Hoseok
I will pass the message on to them, but I'm actually meeting with Suho again right now so, I'll see you soon.
He says, then he leans away from the baluster before he looks at Yoongi's shocked face and it takes everything in Hoseok not to smile.
Hoseok
Hoseok
Or actually, not that soon because Suho wants me to go to-
He gets cut off by Yoongi's frustrated comment.
Yoongi
Yoongi
Right now?
Yoongi
Yoongi
You just... got here.
He whines, looking down at the messy floor.
Hoseok
Hoseok
Yeah, but I mean, it's not like you care much for my presence because Suho always has better reactions to my stories so I will-
Yoongi looks up at him, and his mood changes from frustrated to saddened, and it confuses Hoseok a little.
Yoongi
Yoongi
You said you only read them to me.
Yoongi
Yoongi
Why would you read those to him? They're for us. No?
His voice came soft, like it usually was and Hoseok smiles fondly before he folds his arms again.
Yoongi
Yoongi
It's bad enough you completely left me here for 2 days without warning, but worse now that I know it was to go read stories for someone else. That's fucked up.
Hoseok
Hoseok
So, you admit that you care.
Yoongi looks at him, with a glare making Hoseok raise his hand in defeat.
Yoongi
Yoongi
I... I don't but...
Yoongi
Yoongi
Just go...
He tells, knowing there was no way he'd be able to explain why he didn't care, because he really did but he shouldn't.
Hoseok
Hoseok
I was lying.
Hoseok tells, and his laugh fades when Yoongi looks to him with a pointed expression. The younger was not amused in the slightest.
Yoongi
Yoongi
Fück off.
Hoseok
Hoseok
That mouth of yours, someone ought to teach you what to do with it.
Yoongi rolls his eyes, before he lets the broom fall from his hands and onto Hoseok, who grabs a hold of it and he raises his eyebrows in confusion.
Yoongi
Yoongi
Here. You made the mess, you clean it.
Hoseok
Hoseok
I can make other messes too.
Yoongi snickers at that for a second before he pulls himself together and he rolls his eyes, folding his arms as he stepped away from where he stood so Hoseok could start sweeping.
Yoongi
Yoongi
Are we gonna have the same conversation again?... I am a man, so are you. flirting is not for us.
Hoseok
Hoseok
See, Suho doesn't complain when I do.
Hoseok says, knowing that would make Yoongi look at him again, and the younger does. For a second he stays quiet, examining Hoseok and then he chuckles to himself softly before he walks over to where the other stood sweeping.
Hoseok
Hoseok
He's really good at it too. I'd say he's better than you, then again i've never heard you flirt.
Yoongi
Yoongi
I... I can flirt.
Yoongi says, grabbing the broom from the other. It couldn't be more obvious that he lived with people who did everything for him. How can he not do a simple task such as to sweep?
Hoseok
Hoseok
Show me then...
Yoongi
Yoongi
You're...
He tries, but really he didn't know how to. He's more confused as to why he even said he could in the first place.
He sighs, looking around for anyone and Hoseok rolls his eyes when he notices.
Hoseok
Hoseok
Gosh, Yoongi. It's just a few words, no one's gonna hear you.
Yoongi
Yoongi
You... have... pretty....
Hoseok narrows his eyes,and unconciously he smiles at Yoongi's struggle.
Yoongi
Yoongi
teeth...?
Hoseok
Hoseok
That was underwhelming... You can barely even call that flirting, though I do appreciate the compliment.
Hoseok shakes his head in disappointment and Yoongi moves him to his side so that he could sweep the floors properly.
Hoseok
Hoseok
Have you ever really flirted with anyone? No girls?
Yoongi
Yoongi
Not everyone's as lucky as you, Hoseok.
Hoseok
Hoseok
Some girls at my school would call you lucky.
He tells, and Yoongi knew that much, his question really was why Hoseok would rather spend time with him and not all the girls who would do anything to just have a drink with him.
Yoongi
Yoongi
Only because they don't know what a pain you are.
Hoseok
Hoseok
It's so amusing to me how you act like you wouldn't jump off a cliff to save me if you had to.
For some reason, Yoongi can't help the smile on his face and really he doesn't fight it either.
Yoongi
Yoongi
I'm not saying I would but, if we were older and you were, you know a successful guy, maybe I'd think about it. Imagine the newspaper headlines " local resident saves Jung Hoseok from death". All the interviews i'd have to do.
Yoongi
Yoongi
Maybe you'll be like your dad...
Yoongi
Yoongi
or some famous writer...
He says, and slyly he looks up at Hoseok, who rolled his eyes. He knew where Yoongi was going with this but they've had this conversation before. multiple times.
Hoseok
Hoseok
As if... I told you, you're the only one who knows I write and it will stay that way until we're both dead.
Yoongi
Yoongi
Suho-
Yoongi starts, but Hoseok doesn't let him finish.
Hoseok
Hoseok
I told you it was a lie, don't be jealous.
Yoongi
Yoongi
Call me jealous, one more time.
Hoseok hears as he stares at the top of the broom stick, that Yoongi was pointing in his face and he laughs, raising his arms in surrender.
Hoseok
Hoseok
Aww, even when you try to be intimidating it's cute. You're like a cat with a fake gun.
Yoongi pulls the broom away from the other before he sweeps the last of the dust away and off the steps.
Yoongi
Yoongi
Well, that makes no sense because father said, men can't be cute. Just wait, by the time i'm 16, i'll be all tall and tough and you'll be begging me not to crush you.
He tells as he puts the broom back in it's rightful place then he turns to Hoseok.
Hoseok
Hoseok
Oh, I'd let you crush me any day.
Yoongi rolls his eyes as he made his way up to the other.
Yoongi
Yoongi
Fine.
Slowly, Yoongi wraps his arms around Hoseok, before he starts squeezing him with everything he had.
After a while, Yoongi stops squeezing and they just stay there for a while in each other's arms. For a second, Yoongi forgets all his morals and just lets himself relish in the moment.
Yoongi
Yoongi
Stop flirting with that Suho guy.
Hoseok
Hoseok
I won't, no need to be jealous.
Yoongi
Yoongi
I'm not jealous. You just... your parents wouldn't like to know you're out flirting with guys. Also, if my parents find out they'll never let me hang out with you again and that'll probably cause you a world of hurt.
He says, and he pulls away, but he doesn't get too far as Hoseok takes a hold of his wrist, pulling him to stand directly infront of him, almost chest to chest.
Hoseok
Hoseok
And you? You won't care?
Yoongi
Yoongi
If I didn't, I'd have let them know ages ago, wouldn't I?
Hoseok
Hoseok
I guess, but if we're being honest, you like that I flirt with you, don't you?
Yoongi sighs, and their eyes meet again, but not for long as Yoongi averts his eyes immediately and Hoseok wonders why.
Yoongi
Yoongi
I will push you down those stairs.
Hoseok
Hoseok
Not like I haven't fallen for you before.
Hoseok tells and he chuckles as Yoongi groans and just lets his head fall against Hoseok's chest in defeat. Weirdly, his heart rate picks after Hoseok's words.
Yoongi
Yoongi
Fück me...
He murmurs, shaking his head as Hoseok lets his wrists go and moves his hands to wrap around Yoongi's frame and Yoongi lets his eyes fall shut.
Hoseok
Hoseok
If that's what you really want.
He whispers in Yoongi's ear, and Yoongi looks up at him with a glare, making Hoseok chuckle a little.
Hoseok
Hoseok
Don't stare at me like that, you walked right into that one.
Yoongi rolls his eyes before he lays his head back against the older's chest, and they stay there for a while longer as the day grew closer to night.
---
[Present Day ]
Hoseok smiles as he sits up, pulling the sheets from his body. He'd kinda forgotten about that whole interaction until Yoongi mentioned it just yesterday.
He smiles thinking about how Yoongi practically was still the same as he was back then, he may have gotten just an inch or two taller but he wouldn't admit. He liked seeing the fuss Yoongi would make when he teased him about it. He always found it cute.
He gets out of bed, then he goes over to the couch in his room, pulling out his journal before he writes for a few minutes, then he puts his journal away, in his drawer before he makes his way to the bathroom and he takes a shower.
Once he was done, he makes his way to the kitchen. It was pretty early so he hadn't expecting anyone to be awake as yet so it surprises him to see Dari. Wasn't she with Yoongi?
Did Yoongi... Did he call it off?
Dari
Dari
Oh, you're up early.
She says, and Hoseok gulps as he made his way over to the counter where she stood and he picks up the kettle before he responds.
Hoseok
Hoseok
Yeah... I slept pretty early last night.
He pauses and he turns the tap on, filling the kettle with water.
Hoseok
Hoseok
How... How are you?
Dari
Dari
I'm good, actually.
She says, and she smiles at him. Okay, maybe he hadn't told her. Part of him feels relieved yet disappointed. He just looks back at the water filling the kettle for a second before he turns the tap off.
Hoseok
Hoseok
Are you sure?
Dari
Dari
I mean... I'm a little disappointed.
He turns to look at her as he closes the kettle, maybe Yoongi did tell her?
Hoseok
Hoseok
Listen, I wasn't trying to hurt you or... get between you and Yoongi... even if that's what it looks like. I just-
He tries to explain, but she stops him before he could get any further.
Dari
Dari
Listen, I know you and Yoongi are great friends and friends go through hard times but, i just... I want you to stop making him... sad... I...
Hoseok unintentionally lets out a scoff at that. He's making Yoongi sad? What was she talking about?
Dari
Dari
Every time, you and him have any conversations, he ends up being so sad and upset and I hate seeing that side of him. When he gets like that, he barely... he gets so closed off and avoidant and... it's so hard to cheer him up.
Dari
Dari
I just don't want to have to worry that you're... I don't know, a burden to his emotional wellbeing. Whatever you're doing and saying is hurting him, Hoseok. So, if you'll just.... stop and-
Hoseok cuts her off after that, frankly he'd heard enough and really he was getting confused as to why he's being blamed for this in particular.
Hoseok
Hoseok
Did Yoongi tell you that I make him sad?
He asks, looking at her and he removes his hand from the kettle.
Dari
Dari
I can see it for myself, Hoseok. You guys talk and then his mood changes.
She says folding her arms, as she stares up at him with a pointed gaze and he laughs in disbelief a little.
Hoseok
Hoseok
Dari. I... It's not... I don't make him sad.
He defends, and truly he finds it ridiculously that were even having this conversation right now.
Dari
Dari
Yes, you do and I care about him alot, Hoseok. I want to make sure he's okay, and i feel like you're preventing him from being okay.
Hoseok
Hoseok
I... I'm no-
He doesn't get to finish as he gets interrupted by Yoongi and he sighs.
Yoongi
Yoongi
Is everything okay with you guys?
Hoseok
Hoseok
Why would you tell her I'm being awful to you? that i'm making you sad? You-
Yoongi
Yoongi
I never said that... I
Yoongi looks away from Hoseok and to Dari, tilting his head a little then he stares back at Hoseok when he hears him speak.
Hoseok
Hoseok
Then what did you say that would let her believe that i'm the worst possible thing that happened to you.
Yoongi
Yoongi
I... I... come with me.
He says, taking Hoseok's hands and he pulls him outside, closing the door behind them.
Hoseok
Hoseok
What the fuck is going on? Just yesterday, you said you were gonna call the wedding off. I should've known it was never gonna happen. I mean when have you ever kept your fucking word.
Hoseok opens and he pulls his hand away from Yoongi's, he was more than upset. Yoongi sighs as he made him way up to the other.
Yoongi
Yoongi
I... She told me she loves me....
Yoongi pauses and he sighs, folding his arms and Hoseok lets out a breath before he stoops to the ground, and he runs a hand through his already messy, damp hair.
Yoongi
Yoongi
Hoseok, I... I couldn't... How was I supposed to tell her I can't go through with it when she's crying in my arms, saying she's sorry and that she wants to take care of me.
Yoongi
Yoongi
I couldn't do it... okay? I'm sorry.
He tells, he just didn't want Hoseok to be mad at him.
Hoseok
Hoseok
That still doesn't explain why you would put all the blame for your sadness onto me? You know that whenever we argue, it's almost always your fault. Why would you put the blame on me? Do you know how fu-
Hoseok starts as he stands from the floor, Yoongi cuts him off before he could finish.
Yoongi
Yoongi
I didn't... All... I only said that I wasn't sad because of her, i said that I was sad because you and I got into a huge argument. That's all I said. You have to believe me.
Yoongi
Yoongi
I'll clarify better if I need to but I wouldn't tell her it was your fault. It wasn't your fault. I was hurting you, i know that. I'm sorry, just don't... I don't want you to be mad at me.
Hoseok's gaze softens and he sighs, closing his eyes.
Hoseok
Hoseok
I... I have to go to the tailor to get my suit, I'll see-
He says, trying to leave, but Yoongi puts a hand flat against Hoseok's chest stopping him from moving.
Yoongi
Yoongi
Answer me...
Hoseok
Hoseok
I'm not mad at you.
Hoseok admits, softly. His eyes trained on Yoongi's hand on his chest. Before long, Yoongi smile softly at him then he pulls his hand away from Hoseok's chest.
Yoongi
Yoongi
Can... Can I come with? Please.
Hoseok
Hoseok
I...
Yoongi
Yoongi
Please... I... We're finally okay. I... I just wanna spend time with you.
Hoseok
Hoseok
Fine... but it's only because I've never heard you ever ask to spend more time with me, i'm scared if I say no, then you won't ever say it again.
He teases and Yoongi smiles unintentionally
Yoongi
Yoongi
You're right... I'll go get dress and meet you here again.
He tells and he turns before he runs back into the house, Hoseok following behind him.
---
Taehyung
Taehyung
Hey...
Hoseok turns from his drawer and he smiles as he sees Taehyung walk into his room.
Hoseok
Hoseok
Good morning.
Taehyung
Taehyung
Are you excited for your 18th birthday?
Hoseok thinks for a second, he guesses he was excited fo finally be considered an adult but there's also that fear he has of becoming fully responsible for himself.
Hoseok
Hoseok
I don't know, not looking forward to being married off so, not really.
Taehyung chuckles at that, before he sits on Hoseok's bed, hugging his pillow.
Taehyung
Taehyung
If it makes you feel better, dad asked me if I found a potential wife, yet. He might leave you alone for a while.
Hoseok
Hoseok
I doubt it, but i guess if he piles on me and leaves you alone then, that's fine.
Hoseok tells as he looks through his closet for something to wear.
Taehyung
Taehyung
What are you doing today?
Hoseok
Hoseok
Uh... Yoongi and I are going to get my suit for the party.
Hoseok speaks as he picks outs a pair of clothes and he exits his closet, closing the door behind him.
Taehyung
Taehyung
Oh, Jimin and I got ours like a couple days ago. You should've told us to collect it for you.
Hoseok
Hoseok
It's fine. You can come if you want though. Who knows, maybe you could have fun.
He says looking at Taehyung, and he smiles when he sees a surprised look on Taehyung's features
Taehyung
Taehyung
I... Okay. I... I'll go get ready.
The other tells and he smiles before he makes his way out of the room and Hoseok jumps a little when he hears the door slam shut.
---
Dari
Dari
Hey... How... did your conversation with Hoseok go?
Dari asks as Yoongi walked into her room.
Yoongi
Yoongi
Good, but uh... why did you tell him he's making me sad.
Dari
Dari
Well, I mean, it's true.
Yoongi was confused to tell the truth, she seemed so hostile and he's not even sure why.
Yoongi
Yoongi
I... It's not. We... had an arguement but it was my fault. He... Hoseok just did what he thought he needed to do. It's not right to outright blame him for me being sad about it.
She laughs humorlessly as Yoongi takes a seat on her bed, and he eyes her weirdly.
Dari
Dari
You're just like with mom and dad. Hoseok does something then, one conversation with him and somehow he's not the problem.
Yoongi
Yoongi
What... are you talking about?
Dari
Dari
I'm sick of everyone dismissing Hoseok's behavior all the time.
Dari
Dari
It's almost like you're all forgetting that Taehyung just said he thinks we hate him all of a sudden and then we all want to pretend like it's not Hoseok's doing.
Dari
Dari
And you don't know this but he was so against us getting married. He said all these awful things about you to convince my dad that you were an awful choice for me.
Dari
Dari
He always disrupts the family dinners with his incessant needs to disagree with everyone and everything. I mean, what's so wrong with marriage why he can't just man up and get married.
She lets out, and Yoongi's never seen her this upset before. He's not really sure what to say to deescalate the situation and that seems to bother her.
Dari
Dari
You're not gonna say anything...
Yoongi gulps and he sighs, looking down at his legs.
Yoongi
Yoongi
I.... Can we talk about this later? I... I'm going with Hoseok to... the tailor.
Dari
Dari
Hmm, okay. Let's hope he doesn't make you rush home crying this time.
She says, and she leaves the room closing the door behind her and Yoongi lets himself fall back on the bed with a thud and he sighs.

Mr. Jung
Mr. Jung
Taehyung, Are you ready to go?
Taehyung eyes widens and then his mouth forms an 'o' as he remembers he'd had plans with his dad for today. He'd totally forgotten for a second.
Taehyung
Taehyung
Oh... Dad... I.... Forgive me but I forgot that we'd made plans.
Taehyung
Taehyung
Hoseok invited me to... to hang out with him.
Taehyung
Taehyung
No matter though, you asked me first so I'll-
The man cuts him off, shaking his head before he sits back down in his chair in the kitchen and he looks up at Taehyung as he spoke.
Mr. Jung
Mr. Jung
It's fine son, I wouldn't wanna get in the way of you and your brother's little bonding trip.
Mr. Jung
Mr. Jung
But, I do have a favour.
The man starts, and Taehyung nods, awaiting his dad's request.
Taehyung
Taehyung
Anything, father.
Mr. Jung
Mr. Jung
Try to convince him to keep an open mind for his party. I have a feeling he'll go back to his old ways and will not even give the girls a chance.
Taehyung
Taehyung
I... I'm not sure, I can convince Hoseok of anything father, however, I will see what I can do.
Mr. Jung
Mr. Jung
Thank you, now I need to figure out what i'll tell everyone when I show up without a guest.
He says, and he chuckles nervously before he turns back to his newspaper and Taehyung sighs. He didn't mean to cause a problem.
He hears a door shut from upstairs, pulling his attention and his eyes find Jungkook for a minute, and Taehyung smiles as an idea pops into his head and Jungkook stares at him in confusion.
Taehyung
Taehyung
Uh... Well, I mean, Jungkook's been looking for a job. Maybe if you bring him someone might know someone who can hire him or...
Mr. Jung
Mr. Jung
You know, that's actually a great idea.
Mr. Jung
Mr. Jung
Jungkook, have you found yourself a job yet.
Mr. Jung asks, standing from his chair as he stared up at a frightened Jungkook.
Jungkook
Jungkook
Well, I went from store to store but I couldn't fi-... uh, no, sir.
Mr. Jung
Mr. Jung
Great. Get ready and I might just be able to find you one.
The man says enthusiastically and he turns to Taehyung, giving the younger a high five before he sits.
Jungkook
Jungkook
I... Okay, sir.
---
Jungkook
Jungkook
Wake up... Wake up.
Jungkook whisper yells, as he took a seat on Jimin's bed.
Jimin
Jimin
I'm not asleep. What's wrong?
The other spoke as he sat up, giving Jungkook a concerned look.
Jungkook
Jungkook
Everything? Your dad just asked me to come with him to... I don't even know where. He said he'd find me a job.
Jimin
Jimin
Isn't that what you want?
Jungkook
Jungkook
Yes, but you know I crack under pressure. How am I suppose to do anything with your dad next to me?
Jimin
Jimin
He's a chill man, he's not gonna do anything to you.
Jungkook
Jungkook
Are you sure? What if I accidentally tell him that i'm not actually just your friend and that we-
Jimin
Jimin
Sssh. Sssh.
Jimin tells and he pulls Jungkook down on the bed, with him to calm him down a bit.
Jimin
Jimin
You're gonna put some nice clothes on and then you're gonna join him and everything will go well.
Jimin
Jimin
And when you come home later, you'll be fine and who knows, maybe you and my dad will bond and then he won't even care if you turn out to be more than just a friend.
Jungkook
Jungkook
Hmm, that would be nice but that's highly unrealistic.
Jimin
Jimin
Stop overthinking. Go get ready.
Jungkook
Jungkook
Fine, but when things go wrong, i'll be telling you I told you so.
Jimin
Jimin
Looking forward to it.
He whispers as he pushes Jungkook up and off the bed.

Yoongi
Yoongi
Are you waiting for me?
Yoongi asks as he makes his way out of the house, and he sees Hoseok standing before the carriage, his hands shoved in his jacket pocket.
Hoseok
Hoseok
Don't flatter yourself, I'm waiting for Taehyung.
Yoongi
Yoongi
Taehyung? He's coming?
Hoseok
Hoseok
Yep... Trying to rebuild that brotherly bond that I broke.
Hoseok
Hoseok
What you don't want him to come?
Hoseok questions, an eyebrow raised and Yoongi sighs before he leans against the carriage like Hoseok had been.
Yoongi
Yoongi
Don't put words into my mouth, Hoseok. It's just... I don't know, I'm not sure he likes me very much.
Hoseok looks down at the other, not believing that for a second.
Yoongi
Yoongi
He glares at me sometimes, I thought it was in my head but just now, if looks could kill you'd be staring at my corpse.
Hoseok laughs, making Yoongi groan and he kicks at a stone before he turns to Hoseok.
Yoongi
Yoongi
It's not funny. I haven't even done anything to be glared at.
Hoseok
Hoseok
Are you sure?
Yoongi
Yoongi
What do you mean?
Hoseok
Hoseok
I told him I'm in love with you and you make me feel awful about it.
Yoongi
Yoongi
Fuck's sake, why would you tarnish my name to your siblings? He probably does hate me now.
Hoseok
Hoseok
I wouldn't say hate. Maybe dislike.
Yoongi
Yoongi
Like that's much better. How do I fix it?
Yoongi
Yoongi
I have this weird obsession with being liked so tell me what he likes so i can bribe him into a relationship with me.
Hoseok
Hoseok
Aww, you wanna be liked by my family. At this rate, you'll be begging for my hand in months.
Yoongi
Yoongi
Shut up. Just tell me how to make it right.
Hoseok
Hoseok
Just be nice to me... Maybe, apologize to me in front of him.
Yoongi
Yoongi
You know I hate apologizing.
Hoseok
Hoseok
Yeah, which is why it's so baffling to me how much trouble you can get yourself into.
Yoongi rolls his eyes and pushes at Hoseok but he barely even moves, making him roll his eyes again.
Hoseok
Hoseok
Here he comes.
Hoseok tells and he smiles knowingly at Yoongi as Taehyung made his way up to them.
Taehyung
Taehyung
Uh, were you guys waiting for long?
Yoongi
Yoongi
Yeah. You probably don't know how to read a clock, huh?
Yoongi laughs then stops when they both stare at him. Hoseok looks at him, shaking his head but then again Yoongi's never been a people person so he's not too surprised that he doesn't know the art of small talk.
Yoongi
Yoongi
I just meant since...
Hoseok
Hoseok
Sssh...
Yoongi
Yoongi
I just...
Hoseok
Hoseok
Shh... ssh. Just get in the car.
He tells, and Yoongi sighs but does as he's told.
--
Hoseok
Hoseok
Did you talk to Namjoon?
Hoseok asks, while they're somewhat close to the tailor's store.
Taehyung
Taehyung
Well... I walked behind him for a while trying to build up the courage but then i couldn't do it.
Hoseok
Hoseok
Try again at the party, i'm sure he'll be there.
Taehyung
Taehyung
I... Okay.
Taehyung
Taehyung
is he still being mean to you?
Taehyung whispers to Hoseok and Hoseok smiles before he shakes his head and he responds.
Hoseok
Hoseok
no, he's not and you really need to work on your whispering skills.
Yoongi
Yoongi
Taehyung, Hoseok... he told me a lot about you.
Taehyung
Taehyung
Really, like what...?
Yoongi
Yoongi
Uh he... like... your his brother... and he cares about you... yeah, he cares about you so much and he... likes hanging out with you.
Yoongi laughs again, nervously when Taehyung eyes him weirdly.
Hoseok sighs and he leans over, whispering in Yoongi's ear.
Hoseok
Hoseok
Quit trying so hard.
Yoongi sighs, and a small pout finds his lips.
Taehyung
Taehyung
I... like hanging out with you too.
Taehyung
Taehyung
Though I feel a little bad. Dad asked me to come by his work and I came with you instead. I don't want him to feel like I don't wanna hang out with him. I just...
Hoseok
Hoseok
He knows better than to think that Taehyung.
Taehyung
Taehyung
He took Jungkook instead so i guess it's fine, right?
Yoongi
Yoongi
Who's Jungkook?
Both Taehyung and Hoseok turn to Yoongi, giving him a questionable look.
Hoseok
Hoseok
You mean you haven't noticed him around the house this entire time?
Yoongi
Yoongi
No, I mean, how do you guys know him?
Hoseok
Hoseok
He's Jimin's... friend?
Hoseok says, and he and Taehyung share a knowing look, confusing Yoongi a little.
Yoongi
Yoongi
You say that very questionably. Is he being abused? or bullied? He's got a lot of bruises.
Taehyung
Taehyung
I was wondering but I didn't wanna ask.
Hoseok
Hoseok
Maybe he just got into a fight, I mean, would your own parent really beat you that badly?
An awkward silence fall over them and Yoongi can't but wonder if it was really that impossible. If Jungkook's parents did do that to him then what was gonna happen to him when he calls the wedding off?
Hoseok
Hoseok
We're here.
Hoseok says, opening the door of the carriage and it snaps Yoongi out of his disturbing thoughts.
---
They made their way into the tailor's store. It hadn't taken much time for Hoseok to get his stuff, but he'd to do a fitting check before he could take it.
Hoseok
Hoseok
What do you guys think? Am I gonna impress all the ladies that come my way?
He says, flexing as he stood at the podium and Yoongi just smiles at him, he hadn't even really heard what Hoseok said. Wasn't even sure he was talking at all.
Taehyung
Taehyung
i'm sure you will.
Hoseok
Hoseok
Yoongi?
Yoongi
Yoongi
huh?... oh... sure.
He says awkwardly and Taehyung and Hoseok give him weird looks making him rub the nape of his neck as he ears grew red.
Hoseok
Hoseok
You're so weird... I'm gonna go take this off then we can leave.
---
He tells then he leaves, heading back into the tailor's design room.
Taehyung
Taehyung
Can we talk?
Yoongi
Yoongi
Uh... Sure.
Taehyung
Taehyung
I know Hoseok loves you and based on the way Dari treats you, she loves you too. I just... Do you love Dari or Hoseok?
Yoongi chuckles...
Yoongi
Yoongi
I... Of course I lo-... I love...
Taehyung
Taehyung
You don't have to tell me, just figure it out before either them fall for you more, because you're gonna hurt one of them really badly. I hope you're prepared for that.
Yoongi
Yoongi
I... I know. I uhm... I know you probably don't like me very much but I... I don't wanna hurt either of them.
Taehyung
Taehyung
Then why don't you choose one already? The longer you wait, the more hurt they'll be.
Yoongi
Yoongi
Have you ever been in love?
Taehyung
Taehyung
What? I... no.
Yoongi
Yoongi
Me either... I... I've only ever had one friend. Hoseok. I don't even know what love's supposed to feel.
Yoongi
Yoongi
Hoseok's the only thing I've ever known.
Taehyung looks to him, and there's a hint of a smile on his face.
Taehyung
Taehyung
Well, then maybe you do know your answer...
Yoongi
Yoongi
That can't be the answer though... He's... we're both men. it's not... I can't love him... Not like that.
He laughs humorlessly at that, it was either that or he'd cry.
Yoongi
Yoongi
I... My parents would never forgive me.
He says, and he feels a tear fall from his eyes and he doesn't bother to wipe it when he knew more was coming.
Taehyung
Taehyung
The first time I found a guy attractive, i told myself it was wrong and that i'd never do it again because I thought everyone would think I was weird but, then when I told Jimin, he still cared about me.
Taehyung
Taehyung
If your parents really love you then they shouldn't care... and if they do then maybe it's better to not have them in your life.
How was he supposed to live without his parents? They've always been with him. Could he really say goodbye to that?
Yoongi
Yoongi
Is it that Namjoon guy who made you feel things?
He says, hoping to change the subject and he hears a sigh from Taehyung.
Taehyung
Taehyung
He's the most recent guy, but he wants nothing to do with me.
Yoongi
Yoongi
I'm sure that's not true.
Taehyung
Taehyung
With my luck, it probably is.
Taehyung
Taehyung
and I don't hate you, I just don't want Hoseok or Dari to get hurt.
Yoongi
Yoongi
That's comforting to hear.
He says finally wiping his tears and when he stops, he hears the door of the tailor's station open and Hoseok hops out telling the tailor "bye", before he made his way over to the two, a bag in his hand.
Hoseok
Hoseok
I'm back.
He says, and he looks up at the two before he speaks.
Hoseok
Hoseok
Were you crying?
Yoongi
Yoongi
No.
Yoongi says, and he turns to leave the building immediately.
Hoseok
Hoseok
Let's go home.
Hoseok says, turning to Taehyung who nods.
Hoseok
Hoseok
He was crying, wasn't he?
Taehyung
Taehyung
Yeah.
Hoseok
Hoseok
About what?
Taehyung
Taehyung
I'm sure you'll find out soon enough.
He says, with a soft smile then he turns leaving Hoseok confused.
Hoseok
Hoseok
Why are you smiling like that?
Hoseok
Hoseok
Taehyung!
He says, as the other made his way to the exit, leaving him standing alone.
Hoseok
Hoseok
Quit walking away from me!
Hoseok
Hoseok
What's the point of being the oldest if no one listens to me?
He mumbles under his breath as he follows behind the other, shaking his head. What was Taehyung even talking about? What would he be finding out soon?
