Hoho: I'd really rather not say
Hoho: just appreciate my honesty in this situation
Suga: whatever. I'm in my dorm

[group chat: min.y, kim.s, kim.n, jung.h ]
 Suga: so
Suga: what's the record again for how many times any of us has made a sex partner come during one session? 
Suckjin: Min Yoongi that's disgusting
Suga: hyung you might wanna consider your screenname before you attempt to take the high road here
  
    Suckjin: oh
Suckjin: oh goodness me
Suckjin: I should've changed that before replying. I was only doing it to remind Namjoon.
  
  Joonbug: Hyung, please.
Joonbug: Explaining it is making it worse. 
  
Suga: Namjoon your screenname is fucking gross too is that a pet name from Jin-hyung
Joonbug: I plead the fifth.
  
    Suga: we're not fucking American
Suga: and may I remind you both we have a *trophy* for this award
Suga: and Hobi and I only have hyung's word to go on to make Joon the current title holder
  
  
    Hoho: we only ever have one another's word to go on! I wasn't gonna bring my ex to meet y'all just so he could tell u about the night of four times
Hoho: u all just had to trust me
  
  
    Joonbug: Wait. Did I win because I got to five?
Joonbug: Shit, Jin, can you even come that much? When did this happen? Where was I?
  
Suga: holy shit this is getting juicy
Seok not suck: do I really have to discuss this in group chat?
Suga: for the sanctity of the trophy, hyung
  
    Joonbug: Yeah, for the trophy hyung.
Joonbug: And for me. And my pride.
Joonbug: Please? 
  
  
    Seok not suck: okay fine
Seok not suck: Joonie, the last two times I came dry
Seok not suck: that's why you didn't notice 
  
  
    Joonbug: Oh.
Joonbug: Oh well.
Joonbug: I.
  
  
    Suga: holy shit you rendered the language king speechless
Suga: anyway this just proves my point.
Suga: trophy. Mine now. Surrender it to me by the end of the day. 
  
Joonbug: Sorry hyung but I'm calling bullshit. You made someone come six times in one night?
  
    Suga: some were in the morning. But we never slept.
Suga: We fucked all night long.
Suga: so I win, right? 
  
Joonbug: This would be the mysterious boyfriend we've never seen, hmm?
Suga: you wanna see him? Fine.
  
     
  
   Seok not suck: the part I'm finding it difficult to believe is that you stayed up all through the night forgoing sleep, Yoongi.
Seok not suck: oh wait, the pic just loaded
Seok not suck: well, from what I can actually see of him
Seok not suck: he's really really cute
Seok not suck: so maybe it's almost feasible? 
  
Hoho: more than cute. smoking hot. does he sizzle when you lick him?
Suga: Hands off, ho.
Hoho: I can sincerely promise u I have no designs on that cute piece of ass you've apparently been banging
  
    Joonbug: How are you both so ready to believe any of this is true?
Joonbug: Min Yoongi with a boyfriend,
Joonbug: Min Yoongi voluntarily sharing information about, and pictures of, said boyfriend, 
  
  
    Suga: one picture
Suga: and I made sure to pick one where you can't see his whole face
Suga: none of you can have him he's mine 
  
Seok not suck: Yoongi doesn't have the energy to make things up
Hoho: he'd rather be single than with someone
Seok not suck: which leads Hoseok and I to believe this is actually Serious
Hoho: capital S Serious!
  
    Suga: I'd rather be with him than alone
Suga: I'd rather be awake with him than asleep 
  
  
    Seok not suck: OHMYGOD
Seok not suck: MIN YOONGI IS GOING TO PROPOSE
  
Joonbug: Seriously hyung that is so fucking gay.
  
    Suga: I *am* fucking gay you soggy goddamn walnut
Suga: hurry up with my trophy

EatJin: Yoongi this is the name of my food blog! 
Suga: never
EatJin: it really is!
Suga: no, I mean you never get to meet him
EatJin: you're not even denying the future husband title
Suga: I was choosing not to dignify such bullcrap with a response
Suga: I would sooner take him to meet my ACTUAL PARENTS than have you get all Mother Jin on him
Suga: worst of all
Suga: I have a deep-seated suspicion that he'd actually laugh at your goddamn awful puns
Suga: and then I'd lose all desire to have sex with him ever again
Suga: I don't need you ruining my life 
EatJin: omg

[private chat: park.j, min.y ]
Jiminie: sometimes I wish u could meet my best friend Tae
Jiminie: but then I remember he'd get on your nerves within ten seconds flat
Jiminie: and that u both being from Daegu prob still wouldn't be enough for u to put up with him even tho u really love ur hometown 
Suga: babe
Suga: he's your best friend
Suga: I'd learn to put up with him because of that
Suga: since he means that much to you
Suga: I'd be a huge asshole to not even try
Jiminie: still
Jiminie: if u get Tae you'll inevitably get the others too. they'd be right behind him
Jiminie: three big personalities all pushing at u would be ur idea of hell
Jiminie: I'll think about it a while longer yet
Jiminie:

Suga: okay I'm laughing
Suga: what the fuck is that? 
Jiminie: u kno! When u need to put ur bff on a leash to allow him out in public
Suga: babe I don't exactly have a best friend
Suga: maybe I've got this one dongsaeng who would willingly claim the position
Suga: but I wouldn't really want him to suffer like that 
Jiminie: but you'll let me suffer being ur boyfriend?
Suga: u lil shit
Suga: no spooning for u next time u sleep over 
Jiminie: HYUNG NO  
  
 
Jiminie: I LOVE CUDDLES 
Suga: that's why it's an effective punishment
Jiminie: seriously tho
Jiminie: baby
Jiminie: i wish u wouldn't be so down on urself

Chapter 4
Summary:
ONE DOWN
Chapter Text
[private chat: min.y, kim.n]
Suga: yo Joon
RapMon: What's up, hyung?
Suga: as a fellow emotionally-challenged, walking disaster of a human being who somehow still managed to nab himself a long-term boyfriend,
RapMon: I'm so offended right now.
RapMon: Mostly because I can't argue with any of that. 
Suga: how did you decide what do to celebrate your six month anniversary with Jin-hyung?
Suga: it's an actual pain in the ass being with someone who's 1000% more romantically minded than you
RapMon: ...I'm pretty sure I asked *you* for advice, hyung?
Suga: where on earth did you get that dumbfuck idea?
RapMon: I was drunk.

RapMon: So were you, obviously. Because you actually tried to help.
RapMon: You were roommates with Jin for years, you actually had some really great suggestions! 
Suga: so you're saying I should get drunk for inspiration
RapMon: No!
RapMon: That is not the moral I wanted you to take from this story!
RapMon: I'm saying you should talk to someone close to your boyfriend, they will have useful insights into his psyche.
Suga: you did not just use the word psyche on me in a text convo
Suga: go back to whatever essay you're working on
Suga: and jsyk that's not an option
Suga: we agreed not to introduce one another to our friends yet
Suga: coz I know you'll all smother and interrogate him
Suga: and apparently my boyfriend's friends will jump up and down on my only existing nerve. 
RapMon: He got to know you fast to have learnt how you hate basically all people.
RapMon: You might know him better than you think, too.
RapMon:

Suga: you dropping cliches written out by whiny emo kids is even worse than your irritatingly vast vocab
Suga: I'm out

[private chat: kim.n, kim.s]
Namjoonie: Why aren't you home?
Seokjinnie: you know why~
Seokjinnie: aren't you the one who says the thing that's like, "if you don't ask the question you really want to ask, you won't get the reply you need?" 
Namjoonie: I thought you always fell asleep when I started waxing philosophical.
Seokjinnie: Namjoon! I am the perfect boyfriend and I listen to everything you say! Even when I'm making fake-bored snoring noises
Seokjinnie: don't change the subject
Seokjinnie: ask what you really want to ask me
Namjoonie: Will you come home, please?
Seokjinnie: is it more important than my thesis, Joonie?
Namjoonie: Is your thesis more important than your boyfriend's dick?
Seokjinnie: you did not just compare your dick to my thesis. If I neglect my boyfriend's dick will I fail my final year of uni? Coz if I neglect my thesis I sure will.
Namjoonie: Jinnnnnnnnnnnn
Seokjinnie: ohmygod Joonie just jerk it this one time, you get so whiny when you need to get off but haven't come
Seokjinnie:

Seokjinnie: hope that helps you, Joonie
Seokjinnie:

Seokjinnie: are my lips cocksucky enough for you in these? 
Namjoonie: Sssshhhh do your work.
Namjoonie: I'm a supportive boyfriend.
Seokjinnie: Who is pumping his dick at a million miles an hour rn
Seokjinnie: try not to sprain anything
Seokjinnie: see you in a couple hours, my idiot darling

[private chat: jung.h, kim.s]
Jin: Hoseokie, my dearest dongsaeng
URHope: yes, my favourite Seokjinnie-hyung?
Jin: I just spent so many hours on tweaking my thesis, I need this, so humour me
Jin: you know basically everyone on campus don't you? 
URHope: I sure do have the reputation of being the friendliest guy on campus
Jin: it's just that
Jin: Yoongi said
Jin: his boyfriend likes puns
URHope: I see where this is going
Jin: you really have no idea who he is? you've never seen him in passing?
URHope: hyung
URHope: I don't know how to tell you this
URHope: can you promise to keep a secret?
URHope: ...even from Joon? 
Jin: um
Jin: is it a secret that will harm him?
URHope: of course not! He prob won't even care that much
URHope: not like we do
Jin: then I tentatively agree
Jin: on the condition that if it's going to threaten mine and Joonie's relationship at any point then I get to tell him
URHope: that's a fair deal, hyung
URHope: okay so
URHope: Yoongi's boyfriend is my dance hoobae
URHope: I've been friends with him literally since he started going to school here
URHope: but neither he or Yoongi have ever seen me with the other's friend group
URHope: so neither of them know that I know them both
URHope: I've been getting so much juicy sex and romance gossip on the both of them for WEEKS now
URHope: Jin-hyung, are you dead? 
Jin: SCREAMING SO HIGH ONLY DOGS CAN HEAR ME RN
Jin: JUNG HOSEOK HOW COULD YOU KEEP THIS DELICIOUSNESS FROM ME
Jin: I THRIVE ON THIS STUFF
Jin: I WANT TO MEET HIM
Jin: INTRODUCE ME
URHope: only if you promise not to mention Yoongi! I wanna keep this going as long as possible
URHope: like, did you know Yoongi *bottoms* for this angelface? my darling dongsaeng?



Jin: omg he's gorgeous and utterly adorable
URHope: and a great person! he's so thoughtful and caring to his HobiHobi-hyung~
URHope: he is human sunshine and idk how Yoongi nabbed him, I'm eternally mystified
URHope: apart from being really good in bed
URHope: like. Jimin NEVER shuts up about that
Jin: HIS NAME IS JIMIN?
URHope: ah yeah shit
URHope: well the cat's way out of the bag now anyway
URHope: if you search your memories you'll probably remember seeing that orange head around campus
URHope: s'definitely why Yoongs only showed us a b&w pic before
URHope: hilariously enough Jimin did the same when he shared a pic of Yoongi with his friends. Coz of the mint hair
Jin: they're meant to be omg
Jin: I wish I could tell Joonie
URHope: hyung!
Jin: I said I *wish* I could! I'm not going to!

HopefulHobi: lately I just choose not to! 
Suga: okay sure
HopefulHobi: you are testing my ~infinite and loving patience~, hyung
Suga: you used hyung on me
Suga: well shit
Suga: I'll buy you beer if you help me out
Suga: and some weed? 
HopefulHobi: you're getting warmer
HopefulHobi: I'm slowly becoming convinced
Suga: and
Suga: I'll be your stupid fucking wingman next time you want to get laid 
HopefulHobi: idk why you think that'd convince me, you're a terrible grumpy wingman
HopefulHobi: but I appreciate how much it took for you to make that offer
HopefulHobi: have you really been with your boyfriend for nearly six months now?
HopefulHobi: and you STILL haven't introduced one another to your friends?
HopefulHobi: sounds fishy to me 
Suga: Hoseok please
Suga: this is going well for me
Suga: this is the best relationship I've ever been in
HopefulHobi: the *only* real relationship you've ever been in
Suga: yeah
Suga: everything else that ever came close is like crap in comparison 
HopefulHobi: you are so whipped ohmygod
Suga: I'm going to allow that this once
Suga: since I insulted you first
Suga: I don't wanna fuck this up Hobi
Suga: I really care about him. I want to be with him
Suga: I think forever?
Suga: he's a beautiful human being
Suga: he's sweet, he cares about people more than anyone I know, he works so fucking hard at everything he does
Suga: he's so fucking hot, and *flexible*, he sounds like an angel but his ass is sin made flesh 
HopefulHobi: you and your lyrical way with words
HopefulHobi: I am genuinely glad you're so happy, Yoongs
HopefulHobi: but if it's going so well why on earth do you think you're gonna fuck up? 
Suga: because I'm me?
HopefulHobi: oh baby no
Suga: oi! Don't pull that "oh baby no" shit on me
Suga: look I just thought the more factors - people - involved, the easier it would be for things to go tits up
Suga: and now it's gone on so long I don't know how we move on from that
HopefulHobi: maybe for your six months you could have us all meet up with him and his friends?
Suga: I see what you're doing
Suga: I want to spend it just us thanks
Suga: but you know
Suga: thanks for giving me a real answer
Suga: you're 
HopefulHobi: yeeeeeesssss???

Suga: and I'm totally into that, I'm not against it at all
Suga: just didn't know what to suggest coz I am shit at romantic gestures
Suga: but I also remember all kinds of random details when it comes to you
Suga: a little while back we were half-joking around about how much we fuck
Suga: and that maybe we could stand to do more things together that aren't sex
Suga: so since we both want our relationship to continue as a lasting one based on deep feelings and not just fucking
Suga: I was thinking we could agree to... not have sex for our anniversary?
Suga: does that sound like the dumbest, weakest shit you ever heard or what

Chapter Text
-
The knock at his dorm room door comes at the ungodly hour of seven o'clock in the middle of the night (it's still night at that time, not morning, you can't tell him otherwise), and Yoongi would be outright ignoring it, or telling whoever it is to fuck right off on pain of death if:
a. he had actually slept at all the previous night and therefore actually been woken up
b. he didn't know for certain who it was going to be on the other side
After all, when your adorable, sexy as fuck boyfriend tells you he wants to get an early start on the day of your six-month anniversary you not only don't argue, you physically can't. Your jaw locks shut and you just find yourself smiling dopily at him and nodding in agreement, because he looks so fucking happy to be spending an entire weekend nonstop with you, and how did you get so lucky as to be with someone as sweet and gorgeous, yet sassy and playful as Park Jimin?
And so, for Yoongi to ensure he would in fact be ready to start at stupid-o-fucking-clock in the "morning", he'd elected to simply pull an all-nighter and work on his music until Jimin appeared at his door, his perfect fluffy orange hair warm and comforting like the sunset, eyes wide and hopeful, holding out a fricking gift already. Jimin just doesn't wait for anyone or anything. When he wants to say or do something he does it.
He says Yoongi has been a factor in helping him develop that confidence; Yoongi believes it, but only because he's been bullshitting his own self-confidence his entire life.
"Open it, hyung!" Jimin chirps, making encouraging faces at him as he pushes the gift tauntingly up under Yoongi's nose.
"What about a 'hello'?" Yoongi asks. "Why aren't you surprised to see me awake?"
"Because I warned you in advance," Jimin says primly, biting back his smile. He leans in to kiss Yoongi on the cheek. "Good morning, hyung. Happy anniversary. Open it!"
Yoongi groans in response. When he feels a soft poke at his cheek he knows he's pulling one of his pitiful, long-suffering grimaces that Jimin swears are adorable.
"Did you sleep at all?" Jimin asks. It's almost amusing how well he knows Yoongi's habits to realise Yoongi wouldn't have slept in order to make it to seven am awake. Or--
"Do I look that terrible?" Yoongi asks, reaching up to scratch his face.
"You always look wonderful to me," Jimin coos, and then starts laughing. Yoongi is actually relieved Jimin hadn't kept up the mushiness with a straight face, because as much as he literally feels that way about Jimin's face he's not going to go around saying that shit out loud! And he can't deal with it if Jimin does it either. "When was your last coffee?"
"Uh," Yoongi takes a glance at the clock, squinting as if it'll give him a clue, merging one of the numbers into a coffee mug. "Three-ish, I think?"
"Coffee first," Jimin decides gently, slipping his arm through Yoongi's and leading him out of his door. "And then if you still haven't said happy anniversary to me I'm going to pout."
-
Yoongi stares at the mug and the jewellery box sat next to one another in front of him. "For when you're ready," Jimin had said to him without being at all pushy about it. Yoongi's just trying to clear the fuzziness from his brain first.
At least it's too early to worry about any of his friends appearing. Usually he and Jimin would hit up a coffee shop much further from campus, but Jimin had sensed just how much Yoongi had needed an instant hit of caffeine and guided him to the first one within walking distance.
He sits nursing a breakfast bagel and a cup of hot chocolate himself, complete with a spiral of whipped cream squirted on top and mini marshmallows sprinkled over that. When he tries to take a sip of the actual drink beneath Whipped Cream Mountain Jimin comes away with a white moustache. He knows it's there, and he leaves it there, smiling innocently at Yoongi.
"Urgh," Yoongi groans, reaching out to grab at the base of Jimin's chair and drag it around the table towards him a little. "Come here." He's so cute it's unbearable. "Why did you sit so far away in the first place?"
"That's how tables work, hyung," Jimin giggles. He shuffles his chair until it's alongside Yoongi's, leaning in to press his side up against him and rest his head on Yoongi's shoulder. Only then does he poke his tongue out to lick the remnants of the cream from his top lip.
Jimin has a ridiculously long tongue and it's frequently obscene, but when it's only peeking out a little like that the gesture is nothing but innocently, endearingly cute. Yoongi pushes fingers into Jimin's soft hair and kisses the top of his head.
"Happy anniversary," he says.
"There it is," Jimin hums happily as Yoongi picks up his coffee and takes a few lingering sips.
"I haven't got a gift for you with me," Yoongi admits, walking his slim, spidery fingers across from his mug to clasp the jewellery box, considering the dimensions of it. It's pretty large as jewellery boxes go. A bracelet, or a watch; something like that? "We can go back to my dorm so I can give it to you--"
"It's fine, hyung," Jimin assures him, snuggling even closer. "I don't need a gift to make today special."
Fuck Park Jimin, honestly, for being able to say shit like that so easily. Well, it's tough, because Yoongi did do something special for him! And he's going to accept it!
"Fine," Yoongi huffs, "I'll just give you it later when we get back."
"Don't sulk, hyung," Jimin whines the words, but he's smiling. "Come on, open your present. There's one for each of us. You'll have time to decide whether you want to give me a gift after all or not."
"What does that mean?" Yoongi demands, but he's already popping the lid on the box and looking inside.
There are two necklaces inside on chains, heart-shaped pendants dangling from them. Etched onto the surface of one are some music notes and a row of piano keys. The other has matching music notes and a silhouette that's clearly a person dancing. Yoongi's fingers immediately go to the piano one.
"Uh-uh hyung, that one's mine," Jimin says with an amused hum. "It has your first love on it, so I want to carry it." He wraps his hand around Yoongi's as much as he can manage considering his is much smaller, guiding it over to the other necklace. "You get to wear my first love close to your heart instead."
For a long moment Yoongi isn't sure what to say. When he'd said that thing about Jimin being 1000% more romantically minded than him he hadn't been exaggerating in the slightest. Taking the art Yoongi is so dedicated to and wanting to hold it close, cherish it just like Yoongi does. Trusting him to do the same with Jimin's love of dance.
"You little fucker," he whispers into Jimin's ear, because there are actually a few other early-birds scattered around in the coffee shop and he doesn't want to cause a scene. If anyone's watching them they kind of already are though, cuddled up and clearly gifting jewellery. Jimin chuckles.
"Gross, huh?" He says. "Do you hate it? I thought you would think it was too much, but somehow that just made me want to do it even more."
"You're a horrible boyfriend," Yoongi mutters with zero malice in his words. He doesn't pause, lest Jimin think he's serious. "This is so thoughtful. I've done basically nothing in comparison."
"I'm the best boyfriend," Jimin retorts, knowing that's exactly what Yoongi had truly meant. "And don't give yourself a hard time, hyung!" He giggles as he lifts the piano necklace from the box. "I bought myself a gift after all, not just you!"
"The point is that they're a matching set," Yoongi says. "It wouldn't have been the same otherwise."
"Help me put it on, hyung?" Jimin asks, sitting up and offering the necklace to Yoongi with the clasps at his fingertips. He drops his head a little to make it easier for Yoongi to get the necklace around to the nape of his neck and fasten it. When he feels the chain settle Jimin looks up again, reaching to touch the heart that rests just below his throat. "See," he says, lifting it up to show off the flat, untouched surface that has landed uppermost, "nobody can see what's beneath unless you turn it over to show them. It's our secret."
Yoongi studies it for a moment, admiring how beautiful the necklace looks around Jimin's neck. He can admit to himself that he likes the idea of the personalised part being hidden, kept sacred between the two of them.
"Are you going to wear yours, hyung?" Jimin asks curiously. "If you don't want to it's-"
"Shut up," Yoongi reaches for it before Jimin can keep babbling nonsense. "Of course I'm going to. I'm not embarrassed to wear the meaningful gift that my Jiminie has given me." Jimin flushes a little at that; it makes Yoongi's heart swell and his mouth quirk. Jimin is so weak to that nickname when it comes out of Yoongi's mouth. "Put it on for me."
Jimin hurries to comply, leaning around Yoongi's head to watch what he's doing as he hooks the necklace clasp together. As he pulls back Yoongi turns his head to capture Jimin's lips with his own.
"Hyung!" Jimin whispers, pulling back and glancing around. Yoongi is so sick of having to be 'mindful' that their country isn't tolerant of two men together.
"Fuck all of them," he says back softly. "If they don't wanna look at it they can turn away. We're not hurting anyone." And with that he's placing a firm hand behind Jimin's head so that he can't overthink it when Yoongi kisses him again, a simple but lingering press of mouths, nothing obscene that might 'offend' anyone.
He doesn't want to Jimin to feel any discomfort from the other people in the coffee shop, though, so Yoongi drains his cup and pushes out his chair.
"Got plans for the rest of the day?" He asks, stretching. He feels like he can start the day effectively now.
"Loose ones," Jimin says. The smile on his face is so soft, looking at Yoongi like he hung the moon. "I don't mind if there's anything you want to do instead, so I've kept it pretty open." He nudges Yoongi as they head for the door. "Besides, I shouldn't be the only one making plans for our anniversary; it's both of ours!"
"I could plan tomorrow," Yoongi offers innocently. "I'm thinking you face down in the middle of my bed, some play handcuffs, and a shit-ton of lube."
Jimin's too busy doubling over laughing to give Yoongi a legitimate yay or nay to that proposition.
-
They link hands, walking palm to palm once they're off the train. It's nearing 9am, more people are around, but Yoongi realises he and Jimin are following the signs to the botanic gardens, and although it's a tourist spot it does mean that people will be caught up in their own groups, their own little worlds, sight-seeing and reading the information on all the signs. They won't bother he and Jimin, just the way Yoongi likes it. Jimin knows that too.
"I brought your camera, hyung," Jimin says shyly, pulling the case out of his messenger bag. Yoongi has no idea when he'd managed to slip such a big item in there without drawing attention to it, but Yoongi had been pretty out of it first thing. He accepts it gratefully with a soft smile.
"We don't have to walk far if you don't want to," Jimin adds, slipping his hand into Yoongi's again. "And we can take it slow. You had a long night." On purpose of course, but Jimin seems to understand the reason why, and not only that, he's compensated for it in their day.
Yoongi can't believe how lucky he is honestly.
"You know-" he begins, but when Jimin turns to listen to his words he's framed with the rolling scenery of the botanic garden behind him, and the way the beauty of nature slots together so perfectly with Jimin's open, waiting, willing and hopeful expression makes Yoongi forget everything and just gape stupidly. I really fucking love you, is what he had wanted to say.
"I know," Jimin replies eventually, his curious expression having morphed into a broad, warm smile the longer he'd been watching Yoongi just stare at him, at a complete loss.
All Yoongi can do is think, how do I give back to Jimin as much as he gives me?. That starts with saying the words, no matter that he already got the message across.
"I really love you," he says. Jimin's eyes disappear he's smiling so hard.
"I know," he repeats, impressing it properly. Then he's letting go of Yoongi's hand and running down the path, arms spread like he could take off into flight right then and there.
Yoongi's hands are lifting the camera from its case before he has to think. He captures image after image of Jimin's hair caught in the wind, his jacket lifting as he bounces and twirls. The way he glances back at Yoongi to make sure he's looking, sharing in the moment every time Jimin sees something he likes. He leans down to sniff flowers and reaches to touch fruit hanging on branches gently so as not to actually disturb it. Yoongi watches every beautiful thing through the view of a lens and doesn't regret a moment of it.
-
"What's next?" Yoongi asks. Jimin is about to reply to the question when Yoongi's stomach rumbles, and instead starts giggling. It's nearing lunchtime, and Yoongi is never up early enough for breakfast anyway so this is just his body waking up for its first meal, it's normal!
"Food?" Jimin suggests. "There will be food where I was planning for us to go next but maybe we should grab a snack for the journey."
"Sounds good," Yoongi mumbles, because he can hardly deny that he wants to eat right now, can he? But it turns out that even stomach gurgles happen for a reason because when they exit the botanical gardens and enter the next few streets which are full of touristy gift shops and eateries Yoongi sees the perfect snack.
"Come on," he says, squeezing Jimin's hand reassuringly. "We have to eat this."
"Eat what, hyung?" Jimin asks, still clueless right up until Yoongi is dragging him into the store and looking at the display.
"Mochi," Yoongi says confidently, trying to decide between the traditional red bean paste filled, or the sweeter, dessert-like fillings like caramel or chocolate mousse. He points to the mascot on the packaging, a cartoon mochi with a broad smile and eyes crinkled shut. "This guy's cute, he reminds me of you."
"Oh my god," Jimin says, bringing his hands to his face to cover his mouth as he starts giggling. "I'm a mochi?"
"Mochi Jimin," Yoongi agrees sagely. "Good enough to eat."
"I guess I'm flattered..." Jimin says slowly. "But only because you think it's cute. Round and bald, but cute."
"I don't think you're round and bald," Yoongi rolls his eyes. "It's meant to be a compliment! Sheesh."
"You're just bad at compliments, hyung, accept it," Jimin insists. Then his eyes widen. "Oooh! Strawberry filling!"
"I want the chocolate," Yoongi decides, picking up a couple of portions of each to pay for them. They find a bench to sit at outside, opening the packaging. Yoongi pinches his mochi, feeling the rubbery texture bounce back immediately before reaching over to lightly pinch Jimin's cheek.
"See?" he says, gesturing. "Mochi cheeks! Same feeling."
Of course Jimin can't resist pinching his own mochi and then his cheek to test the theory. And since they're always coated with a fine dusting of powder he now has a couple of fingerprint sized smudges of it on his face. Yoongi decides not to tell him.
It isn't until Jimin bites into his strawberry mousse that he concedes.
"-And full of sweetness!" He declares, sitting back against the bench. His nose wrinkles in his glee. "Delicious sweetness. That's me. Okay, I'll be a mochi."
"You said that, not me."
"Ah but hyung I know you were thinking it. Your Jiminie, full of sweetness, just like a mochi~"
-
"A noraebang?" Yoongi asks skeptically. Jimin opens the door and gestures for him to go in first.
"It's private," he says, counting the reason off on his finger. He continues to do so with other excuses. "We can pay by the hour, and leave whenever we want. We both like music. We can drink! Just let loose, relax, have fun. And eat, too."
When Yoongi thinks about it those are all really good reasons. Even if they just hang out, eat and listen to their own choice of background music that'll be so much better than a cafe or restaurant where other people will be, and unpredictable background noise will reign.
And it is nice. They can sit close together, offer out food to one another on their chopsticks to taste and not hesitate or blush about it. Sure, they've both done it with friends but there's a marked difference between Jimin feeding up Jungkook or Taehyung in an almost maternal manner, and wrapping his lips seductively around the meat Yoongi is offering him.
At one point Jimin grabs a microphone and tries to sing with his mouth full and they both end up almost falling over laughing at the spray of crumbs that hits the table as a result. It's kind of gross, but mostly just ridiculous. Jimin had been too excited to hold back and Yoongi couldn't really be irritated about the adorable enthusiasm.
It's so cozy, comfortable and relaxed that Yoongi doesn't realise his eyes are drooping.
He sure realises he'd fallen asleep when he wakes up to Jimin's fingers in his hair, petting it in a soothing, repetitive rhythm though.
"Sorry," he murmurs before even opening his eyes. Jimin just chuckles. His free hand travels up to Yoongi's face and his thumb strokes over Yoongi's cheek. It feels so good; so gentle and caring.
"Also a good place to take a nap," he informs Yoongi, a whisper just above his ear, sounding like this had also been part of his plan all along.
"How long?" Yoongi murmurs, squinting one eye open.
"An hour?" Jimin shrugs, looking unconcerned. "Maybe two?"
"Babe," Yoongi groans, shuffling himself into a sitting position. "Why did you let me?"
"Because you needed it," Jimin replies simply. He pushes his fingers back into Yoongi's hair and Yoongi hums appreciatively. "Because I am happy just to have the whole day - weekend - alone with you. And because you look so cute when you sleep!"
Yoongi scrunches up his face like he doesn't love the compliment.
"What have you even been doing?" He demands. Jimin better have a good answer and not have been spending his time bored all because Yoongi fell asleep!
"Texting a little," Jimin shrugs. And then he coughs, mumbling, "taking pictures of you sleeping."
That deserves a playful punch in the shoulder to be honest, so Yoongi gives Jimin a soft thump.
"Sharing pictures of you sleeping in chat..." Jimin continues. His smile is so smug Yoongi can't tell if he's just fucking with him to get him riled up or whether he actually means it.
"Whatever," he says, deciding not to fall for the bait. Instead he decides to swing a leg over Jimin's thighs and straddle his lap. He's been with Jimin for hours and hours and hasn't kissed him since the morning, what is wrong with him? Yoongi tilts Jimin's head back a little until his full lips are at a better angle. Jimin just looks up at him with sultry eyes and a barely parted mouth. When they kiss Yoongi leads but Jimin is far from passive, lips melding to Yoongi's just perfectly.
It feels good to be able to just take their time; kissing lazily, endlessly. Soft, warm lips against lips, heads changing angle every so often as if to taste a different corner of one another's mouths. Yoongi can never get over how lush Jimin's lips are. They give beneath his touch but they bounce back to fullness immediately too. Nibbling and sucking on the bottom one sometimes feels like sustenance, an entire meal.
"God," Yoongi sighs, leaning back for breath. "Remember when all we used to do was make out?"
"Not really," Jimin chuckles. "Considering that only lasted about two weeks and we didn't even see each other every day during that time."
"What can I say," Yoongi boasts, "you wanted so much more after just a little taste of me."
"You're so full of yourself." Yoongi is about to retort to that, but Jimin knows him too well: "And don't say anything about me always being full of yourself too! It's just cringeworthy."
"My Jiminie is feeling savage today," Yoongi smirks, pulling him into a loose headlock in order to graze knuckles across his head roughly.
-
It's night by the time they exit the noraebang. There may have been another extended kissing session or two. Never anything heated enough to get the two of them worked up and hard, needing to grind on one another fully clothed, just tactile kisses that concentrated on the feeling of mouths touching and nothing else.
If Yoongi was only able to go that far with Jimin the rest of his life he wouldn't mind it at all.
"You still happy we made that pact?" He asks as he and Jimin walk together holding hands in the dark. He tugs Jimin's hand to nudge an answer out of him.
"The no sex pact?" Jimin asks, humming thoughtfully when Yoongi affirms it with a nod. "Well, yeah! It's only for today. I might've thought differently if it'd been longer. Like those people who go a week or more before their wedding days!"
"We're not doing that," Yoongi says flatly. "Because I'm not marrying you."
"Yet~" Jimin chuckles. It's hard to tell if there's any tiny flicker of seriousness behind the joke. But god, who needs to worry about that when they've only been dating six months? At least they can make that sort of joke. At least there's more to them than sex, no matter how it might sound to their friends from all the bragging they've both been doing. No regrets there when everything was completely true, but it had been a conversation they'd needed to have.
"I like the intimacy we have," Jimin continues suddenly. He squeezes Yoongi's hand in his, swinging them back and forth together. "I just wanna fall asleep with you. Spooning you."
Yoongi's little secret; he likes to curl up into a tiny ball to sleep, which makes him the little spoon by default since Jimin can wrap around him but not the reverse.
"Should we... find a movie to watch to kill time before bed?" Jimin asks hesitantly. Yeah, Yoongi knows what he's thinking - they'll need some kind of distraction, otherwise with free time and Yoongi's comfortable bed they'll be having sex before they know it.
"Actually," Yoongi says, glancing up at the night sky, "I have an idea this time. Can I put an app onto your phone?"
"Oh," Jimin hurriedly pulls it from his back pocket. "Sure, hyung!"
He opens it for Yoongi and hands it over freely. Yoongi feels Jimin peering curiously over his shoulder and tilts the screen out of his view as he types in what he wants into the search bar.
A couple of minutes later there's a new app on Jimin's phone.
"I just want to check it for a good location near here," Yoongi says, taking a few steps backwards and away from Jimin. "And then when we get there you can have it back."
"Hyuuuung," Jimin mock-pouts. "What are you planning?"
Yoongi flashes him the trademark 'trust your genius boyfriend' look and doesn't bother to answer. There's a park within about ten minutes walk. It might only have gravel on the ground and not grass but Yoongi and Jimin have jackets on, they'll survive. It's the best compromise between near and suitable for his purpose.
Yoongi gets lucky; there's a tree just outside the park boundary with a nice patch of grass around it. He guides Jimin over, sits down, and pats the space beside him.
"Lie back," he says, plopping Jimin's phone into his lap before lifting his arms behind his head to rest on them as he looks up at the sky.
"I thought we weren't having sex," Jimin giggles as he greedily opens his phone and swipes to find the newest app, leaning back gently as he does so. "Is it a porn app, hyung?"
"Shut up," Yoongi replies simply.
"Oh!" Jimin says, finally having found the app. "It's for... Stargazing?"
"Mmmhmm," Yoongi agrees. "It reads your location and tells you which constellations are visible in the sky above you. You can even take pictures of what you see and it'll superimpose the constellation on top."
"Oh wow," Jimin breathes, glancing up at the twinkling stars in the sky. "They're pretty enough as it is, but this is super cool."
"Give it a try," Yoongi says. He points to what he thinks are a cluster of stars that belong together. "That bunch there?"
Jimin snaps a photo and lets the app do its magic.
"The seven stars of the north!" He says triumphantly. "Probably the most famous stars. How did you do that?"
"Well, they're probably famous because they're obvious," Yoongi shrugs in a moment of humility. He honestly hadn't planned it, he doesn't know anything about stars! "They tell a story of filial piety, right?"
"It's actually on here, hyung," Jimin informs him. "The stars represent seven brothers who did a good deed for their mother. She blessed the people responsible, unknowing who they were, and the blessing turned them into stars when they died." He turns to grin at Yoongi. "So if we're good to our mothers maybe one day we'll become stars too?"
"I'd rather be the celebrity kind of star," Yoongi replies. "But I'll still make sure to treat my mother well."
"Such a good boyfriend," Jimin hums in amusement. "This is fun, let's try some more!"
"I'm so lucky it was a clear night."
-
"It's past midnight," Jimin informs Yoongi at one point, being the only one out of the two of them with his phone out and the time in view.
"Wanna head back then?" Yoongi asks. "Get some sleep? Ready for tomorrow?"
"If I wake up handcuffed to the bed, Min Yoongi-" Jimin starts to say as he hops to his feet, chuckling to himself. Yoongi holds out his hand, silently demanding to be helped up. Jimin tugs him to his feet.
"You'll what?" Yoongi retorts. "You won't be able to do anything with your hands bound."
"We'll see about that."
Yoongi honestly hasn't got any solid plans for tomorrow either so he just lets the subject drop. Jimin had been the one to joke about having the pent up sexual energy. Making a serious plan over it is only going to lead to pressure and no fun.
Besides, there's something else to think about when they reach his dorm.
"Time for my present!" Jimin squeals excitedly as he walks into the room, clapping his hands.
"Oh wow, I'd forgotten," Yoongi says, gaping. "How did you remember?"
"Um, it's a present for me," Jimin points out. "Where is it, hyung?"
He starts glancing around for a gift bag or wrapped box of some sort. Yoongi snorts.
"You won't see it," he says. "Here, let me show you."
He walks over to his chest of drawers, knowing full well that Jimin is peering over his shoulder expecting to see the wrapped gift hidden inside. Before he opens the top drawer Yoongi hesitates.
"It's kind of cliche," he admits, worrying at his lip for a brief moment. "But cliches endure because they work, right?"
"Hyung," Jimin rests his head on Yoongi's shoulder, tilting his head towards him endearingly. "Whatever it is I'll love it."
"Mmmm." Yoongi doesn't believe that but he kind of understands the sentiment Jimin is going for. So he pulls the drawer open to reveal--
Nothing but a few pairs of boxer-briefs and socks that Jimin had left behind at one time or another when he'd spent the night in Yoongi's bed.
"There's more," Yoongi says, noticing Jimin's mystified look out of the corner of his eye and choosing not to acknowledge it. He walks over to the closet, opening it up to reveal the chunk of space at one end just waiting to be filled. "It's your space." He explains. "Your drawer. Your end of the rail. So you can keep more of your stuff here. So you can stay over a lot more often."
"Ohhhh," Jimin's eyes widen at the realisation. "Oh my god hyung, that's so sweet! How much do you want me to stay here? How many times a week? I'm going to annoy you so much, you know?"
"I know," Yoongi agrees flatly, but Jimin is flinging arms around him from behind as he heads towards the bed, nuzzling into his neck as he makes happy little noises, and Yoongi can't really pretend to be grouchy about it for long. At all.

HobiHobi: just told him to take it
Jungkook: bet?
HobiHobi: Yoongi-hyung likes to brag a ridiculous amount about his tongue skills
Namjoon: We called bullshit.

HobiHobi: which is just mean
HobiHobi: SO
HobiHobi: MY PLAN IS
HobiHobi: we force them to confess
Jin: how?
HobiHobi: I figured you or Namjoon could get your flirt on with Jimin
HobiHobi: and Tae or Kookie can hit on Yoongs
HobiHobi: we push them and push them til someone's jealousy explodes and they reveal all
HobiHobi: I don't think Jiminie is the jealous type but I could be wrong???
HobiHobi: ...so yeah let's just push Yoongi into 'fessing up, he's overthinking this all way too much now
HobiHobi: this is my plan as his only real friend. we have to hurt him just a little to help him a lot
Jin: Joonie
Jin: it took me quite some time to train you out of your nasty flirting ways
Jin: but I'm all for you getting it out of your system for the sake of making Yoongi suffer
Jin: since I have also suffered. From not meeting Jimin. 
Namjoon: ...Yeah, I'm pretty mad about owing Yoongi 50,000 won, I'll do it.
Jungkook: I hav a spare burner phone u can use
Jungkook: Hobi-hyung can bring it to u
Namjoon: Why do you
Namjoon: Oh wait.
Namjoon: I understand.
Jungkook: Unwanted attention.
Namjoon: Yeah, I actually might have an old burner around myself somewhere.
Jin: jeeze
Jin: Namjoon don't revert back into a fuckboi I can't handle it
Namjoon: You can help if you want? I'll show you everything I write, you can try coming up with stuff too.
Namjoon: Also: why is your response to Jungkook-ah being "popular" pride, but my former status cringeworthy?
Jin: Some genius
Jin: BECAUSE I'M *DATING YOU* YOU MORON

JinJin: Yes
JinJin: Yes I am going to reply via message even if you talk aloud
Joonbuggy: Well that just feels awkward.
Joonbuggy: So here I am.
Joonbuggy: Messaging you while we sit beside one another on the couch. 
JinJin: Kim Namjoon how are you so nasty?
Joonbuggy: Don't act so innocent; you love dirty talk in bed!
JinJin: I willingly consent to it! Talking this complete filth to near strangers is just gross.
JinJin: and context *matters*
JinJin: You ever call me a cockslut any other place or time, even jokingly, and I'll rip your balls off.
JinJin: via your throat. 
Joonbuggy: Duly noted, my love.
Joonbuggy: ...You've spent too much time around Yoongi; you make the same threats. 
JinJin: Also, while we're at it
JinJin: After all this time
JinJin: Can you please explain to me what an automatic dick is
JinJin: GOING RED IN THE FACE DOESN'T GET YOU OUT OF ANSWERING, KIM NAMJOON
Joonbuggy: I don't know! It was just a thing I said in the heat of the moment.
JinJin: And yet somehow I still continue to find you sexy.
Joonbuggy: I guess...
Joonbuggy: It means I'm always ready.
Joonbuggy: Like,
Joonbuggy: I see you and automatically I'm hard.
Joonbuggy: Because it's *you*. 
JinJin: I am not finding this endearing.
JinJin: I am not.
Joonbuggy: Starting to protest too much, Jinnie.
JinJin: I think my attraction to you is actually some kind of serious sickness.
JinJin: I'm going to go visit the doctor asap.

JK: so here's how it went down
JK: i needed Yoongi-ssi to recognise me as sexually viable n not just a kid
JK: so i "accidentally" ran into him on campus
JK: then pretended I saw someone I used to fuck
HobiHobi: "pretended" it was someone you used to fuck?
Taeaeaeae: sum1 you "used" to fuck?
JK: either way
JK: I was all
JK: "hyung u got my back right? hide me from that crazy dude. since I pulled the plug on us fuckbuddying he's been hardcore stalkin me, he's after a relationship or some shit"
Joonbuggy: And?
JK: first he said "who the fuck gave u permission to call me hyung?"
JK: but he was already putting an arm out to hide me behind him
JK: even tho he short AF
JK: did Jimin purposely find the only dude on campus as short as him to date or what?
JinAndTonic: let it all out now, JK. don't ever comment on Yoongi's height in person
JK:  and then he was all, "what's an overgrown foetus like u doing with a fuckbuddy anyway?"
JK: an I smirked and said
JK: "hyung, I've had more fuckbuddies than u even though I'm younger, TRUST me"
JK: an then I took a risk and asked if he wanted me to show him some tricks
JK: an he may have laughed in my face
JK: BUT
JK: it was more of an approvin smirk
Joonbuggy: He wants to Suga that Kookie.
JinAndTonic: ohmygod
JinAndTonic: that's disgusting
JinAndTonic: this fuckboi texting stuff has already taken over
JinAndTonic: I'm never baking iced cookies again
JinAndTonic: and possibly never touching your penis ever again either

Mochiminie: are u STILL trying to make me jealous hyung omg

Suga: why is he giving me knowing smiles and pervy eyebrows and showing me his  biceps
Mochiminie: ohmygod
Suga: I haven't been encouraging him, I swear!
Mochiminie: that's not what I'm
Mochiminie: WHY WOULDNT SOMEONE FLIRT WITH U
Mochiminie: MY HOT AS FUCK BOYFRIEND WHO OOZES COOLNESS, EFFORTLESS MASCULINITY, AND SEEMS SO UNTOUCHABLE ANYONE WOULD BE TEMPTED TO TRY AND BE THE SPECIAL ONE TO CRACK THE FACADE? 
Suga: oh
Suga: is that how people see me?

Taeaeaeae: there may be more than one who
Mochiminie: oh TaeTae
Mochiminie: depends on the person!
Mochiminie: like Kookie would fuck anyone as hot as u in a heartbeat an not get weird about it at all
Mochiminie: but if ur secretly wanting more than fuckbuddies w him then ur screwed 
Taeaeaeae: mmm yeah
Mochiminie: now Hobi-hyung
Mochiminie: acts happy and relaxed and chill about everything
Mochiminie: but he is nothing but feelings thru and thru
Mochiminie: I think even tho he likes a fun one night stand as much as the rest of us he falls a lil bit in love with everyone he has sex wit
Mochiminie: so when ur already someone important to him
Mochiminie: thats gonna go SO wrong
Mochiminie: ...now is there anyone else u wanna bang I haven't covered?

Suga: they see a ray of sunshine who always puts others before himself
Suga: who will listen to any issue or problem and try to find a solution

Suga: they see an ass like a ripe peach
Suga: a juicy peach to sink teeth into

C.I.Tae: i am here
C.I.Tae: Special Agent Kim Taetae
C.I.Tae: expertly undercover
C.I.Tae: 
C.I.Tae: ...well not actually undercover at all since Yoongi-ssi doesn't kno my face
C.I.Tae: 
C.I.Tae: to bring u all a live report on Kookies progress in The Seduction
HopeJ: and to interfere if things go too far!
JinAndTonic: they're in a public library, Hobi!
HopeJ: I KNOW PLENTY OF PPL THAT HAV NEVER LET THAT STOP THEM BEFORE
C.I.Tae: ok so
C.I.Tae: omg jeon jungkook
C.I.Tae: masterful !!!
C.I.Tae: I'VE NEVER SEEN SUCH SKILL IN ACTION
C.I.Tae: OUR GOLDEN MAKNAE
HopeJ: ohmygod Taetae tell us what's happening!
C.I.Tae: so he shrugged out of his jacket earlier
C.I.Tae: tryin ta show some skin a lil bit at a time
C.I.Tae: but what our Kookie jus did !!!
C.I.Tae: so he brought coffee wit him
C.I.Tae: he "accidentally" knocked the coffee over after he'd drunk like half of it or more
HopeJ: ur getting great at air quotes bb
C.I.Tae: knocked it so it went towards Yoongi-ssi
C.I.Tae: and stood up hastily leaning right across the table to keep it from hitting Yoongi-ssi's papers
C.I.Tae: so then he has a long coffee stain down his shirt where he leant in it right
C.I.Tae: so he starts unbuttoning it!!!
HopeJ: DONT LET JEON JUNGKOOK STRIP IN THE LIBRARY
C.I.Tae: hyungie!!! He's got a muscle tee underneath
C.I.Tae: and may I just say
C.I.Tae: woweeeee muscles
C.I.Tae: dey are BULGING today
C.I.Tae: i think kookie been hitting the gym in preparation for dis
C.I.Tae: Yoongi-ssi is really subtle
C.I.Tae: but im here to watch so I see him glancing!
C.I.Tae: he's not pervin just lookin
C.I.Tae: like i said he's clearly a muscles dude if he's into Minniemins after all
C.I.Tae: he appreciates the fine curve of a bicep
C.I.Tae: thick thighs dat can crush a man's skull
C.I.Tae: abs u can scrub ur clothes clean on

HobiHobi: Taetae went all quiet on us earlier, what happened with Yoongi?
JK: he outright told me he has a boyfriend
JK: ...he was p awkward about it
JK: which is new
JK: i think he was trying to let me down easy?
JK: like shit is this what it feels like for other people
JK: i didn't even wanna bang him really
HobiHobi: ffft please, Yoongi isn't ugly, you would've banged him if not for Jiminie
JK: i'd bang a lot of people
RapMon: That's not a denial.
RapMon: By the way,
RapMon: I pushed Yoongi-hyung too far too. But in the other direction. My antics with Jimin made him homicidal.
RapMon: We went about this one the wrong way, Jay.
RapMon: In order to make Yoongi jealous someone needs to genuinely catch Jimin-ah's interest, make him flustered and flattered.
JinAndTonic: someone needs to be really kind and sweet to him!
HobiHobi: ...I have an idea
HobiHobi: I'll do it
HobiHobi: I'll pretend I've developed feelings for Jiminie!
HobiHobi: which will be easy because he's a DARLING

Chapter 13
Summary:
Wherein everyone tries to be vague and obscure about what's going on, because only some of the people involved actually know that EVERYONE IS INVOLVED NOW.
Notes:
This was supposed to be a Yoonmin bragging about one another story. It has become so much more. No wonder I find it frustrating when each new chapter doesn't seem to further the plot the way I'd originally intended! It doesn't make the fic inherently bad though, I don't think? It's a very loose and free plot XD
BTW. OVER 700 KUDOS. NEARLY 200 BOOKMARKS, AND NEARLY 400 SUBSCRIPTIONS. OH EM GEE!!!! I love you guys thiiiiiiiiiiiiiis much! <333

Suga: you risked alcohol poisoning for your best friend
Suga: A true hero
Mochiminie: hyung r u being sarcastic
Suga: like 50% sarcasm, 50% truly in awe of your big heart
Mochiminie: hyung i've been thinking
Suga: uh oh
Mochiminie: yoongi!!!
Mochiminie: i've been thinkin
Mochiminie: if Tae asked me my opinion right now
Mochiminie: i'd tell him to drop the fuckboi and ask out our hyung
Mochiminie: coz hyung messaged me earlier to check i was okay after i cancelled on him yesterday
Mochiminie: u kno the one who needed to talk and i blew him off for Tae?
Mochiminie: well he still cared enough to check that looking after my upset friend hadn't been hard on me
Suga: Sounds like a solid reason to want your best friend to be with him. Your hyung sounds like a really good guy. Compared to a fuckboi there's no real choice is there.
Mochiminie: but Tae loves them both!
Mochiminie: it's not my decision
Mochiminie: i can't try and influence him 
Suga: You can only offer support and advice, babe
Suga: If he asks your opinion you can tell him what you told me

JK: i just needed someone to talk to
JK: and talking to other people is complicated right now
Suga: I'm not good at talking kid

Suga: you're not bugging me as much as usual
Suga: have you finally learned to respect my boundaries?
Suga: this is great, keep it up
JinAndTonic: actually
JinAndTonic: I think it's because you've been bragging so much less about your boyfriend lately? 
RapMon: ...Min Yoongi, the instigator of his own destruction.
RapMon: Fascinating.
Suga: why do you always appear together, you have separate lives
JinAndTonic: Love
RapMon: The randomness of the universe.
JinAndTonic: ...
RapMon: Love, it's because we're in love.
Suga: My boyfriend is still flawlessly beautiful, hot as fuck, and sweeter than a dessert buffet.
RapMon: Dear god I hope that's not a quote from your lyric notebook.
Suga: He's busy being an amazing best friend, unlike some irritating people around here,
Suga: and I've been busy telling a horny freshman where to go.
Suga: i.e. away from me

[private chat: kim.s, kim.n]
JinAndTonic: Does he mean JK? JK's not a freshman.
RapMon: Yeah but hasn't he been calling Jungkook 'kid' and 'overgrown foetus' this entire time? Maybe Yoongi just assumed he's a freshman?
RapMon: Or maybe someone else has been hitting on him too.
JinAndTonic: We have entered a dark timeline in Earth's history.

Chapter 14
Summary:
Wherein there's probably just antics and no progress, whoops XD
Notes:
June's turned out to be such a busy month for me! I went to a music festival as a volunteer for a charity I help out at weekly, and it was also my birthday that weekend too! (A few days before BTS turned 4 I turned 30, LOL). I work a seasonal job so I may not produce much content through July and August too, but when I'm not too tired and I'm motivated I'll work on it! As always I love you all and your beautiful support of my works <333

Mochiminie: IS THIS COZ I SUBCONSCIOUSLY WANT TAE TO PICK HIM?
Mochiminie: WHAT HAVE I DONE
Suga: babe, you asked a friend to be there for a mutual friend who needs it
Suga: he happens to be the object of your Tae's affections
Suga: so yeah that could've been considered better
Suga: but it isn't evil genius at work, don't beat yourself up over it
Suga: I'm the only genius between us
Mochiminie: BUT HYUNG ;;;;;
Suga: Jiminie, you can't force them together
Suga: or keep them apart

Mochiminie: baby ur being such a good friend to Tae and u havent even met him!
Mochiminie: i seriously love you
Suga: hey,
Suga: this'll never be a problem for you ever because I'm not letting you go
Suga: but if someone ever prioritised sex with you over your friends or your own welfare, Jiminie
Suga: you'd kick 'em in the balls as hard as you could and leave asap, yeah?
Suga: that's basic decency. it's not something special deserving of praise
Mochiminie: I'll hav u kno i have in fact kicked a few sets of balls in my time hyung, I'm prepared, dont worry~

Chapter 15
Notes:
Part-prose, part-chat chapter! Love you all, I hope you enjoy and don't kill me for switching focus from Tae and Kookie entirely this chapter XD;;
(I also upped the rating though I usually only go explicit for detailed sex scenes because, well, Jimin is fairly explicit when he discusses his sex life and I'd rather err on the side of caution in case people have a smut comfort level!)
Chapter Text

It's a little jarring to go from screeching over Jimin and Yoongi's matching screen names in the group chat to silently plotting how he's going to make the moves on Jimin over the sickly sweet wafting scents of a toffee nut latte and a caramel macchiato, but Hoseok can manage it, no problem. If the past handful of months are anything to go by, acting is his secret calling, his hidden talent, his special skill. Neither Jimin or Yoongi suspect a thing.
Mostly Hoseok just wants to be himself. The point is to make this flirtation game with Jimin seem genuine. Not a pass at a fine piece of ass, but a deep, abiding devotion that will have Jimin shook. Maybe it's cruel to deceive his precious dongsaeng this way, but honestly, it was far crueler for Yoongi and Jimin to keep secrets from their best friend and happiest Hobi. He could've been their number one supporter and biggest fan this entire time! Sure, their relationship makes no sense on the surface, but Hoseok knows both Yoongi and Jimin well enough to suspect how their differences might complement one another and allow them to slot together like puzzle pieces. Most importantly he knows the similarities in values that have tied them together and made them strong as a couple, even withstanding the quiet subtlety of not going around campus together publicly when Jimin is a very physically affectionate person and Yoongi is a total emotional clinger; once you have his love and loyalty it's going to take nothing short of murder to lose it again. And even then Yoongi has that air about him that suggests if you could justify it to him he'd even accept that murder is sometimes necessary too. He can be a scary hyung like that.
It's not like Hoseok hasn't always been incredibly physically forward with Jimin anyway; Jimin loves hair ruffles and cuddles, and when he was single he even played along when Hoseok started up a good old game of gay chicken, seeing who could get the closest to the other's lips before the other flinched away. Hoseok always won.
He's gonna win this time too. Maybe he's just got a competitive nature.
"Sorry, hyung!" Jimin quietly calls across the cafe as he jogs over to the table. "I spent the night with my boyfriend, and-" He snaps his mouth shut and shakes his head, a fond smile gracing his face. He's thinking about Yoongi, Hoseok realises. How gross, and how cute! Yoongi actually makes someone this adorable feel good and thoroughly loved. It's actually wonderful. "You don't want to hear about that though."
But hey, Hoseok is a burgeoning A-list actor, so he has to do his thing.
"Actually, I do," he replies, shooting a level gaze Jimin's way. Jimin gulps, noticing the atmosphere change as he scrambles to sit down. "Jiminie, honestly, hyung is really concerned about this situation."
"W-what?"
"Jimin!" Hoseok makes sure there's a nice hint of frustrated desperation in his voice. "You have kept him hidden from all the people you love best for months and months now! Is it so strange that I would worry something isn't right? Are you being treated right? There's no marks or anything on you, are there?" He doesn't think it's going too far to reach for Jimin's arm and shove up his too-long sleeve, not with how handsy he's always been with his dongsaeng. Jimin allows him a look, probably to satisfy his curiosity, but after mere seconds he's shoving his sleeve forcibly back down and pouting.
"None that I didn't consent to, hyung," he says pointedly. "I don't want him being subjected to the third degree like you're doing right now. I know in my heart that something is wrong if you don't want to introduce your boyfriend to your friends, but we both agreed to it at the start, it wasn't one of us pressuring the other. We're just trying to work out how to undo it after such a long time. I want hyung to meet Tae soon, actually. He's been a real rock in supporting me while I've been supporting Tae." Jimin manages to curve his mouth up into a small smile as he adds, "you have too, Hobi-hyung." Jimin never stays mad for long. He is too quick to realise the words and actions that might not be right but are motivated by love and care. "Tae... Didn't tell you what was wrong, did he?"
"No," Hoseok says. "I asked but he was so distraught I couldn't bring myself to push it. I just looked after him like you asked. I care about him a lot. And you too, Jimin." Time to go in hard. Hoseok takes Jimin's hands into his own, gently this time. Jimin is more than willing to accept his loose, reassuring touch. "I think there could be someone out there who could treat you better than this mystery boyfriend of yours. Someone who has been your friend for a long, long time and wants to love you in other ways than that. Someone who understands your love of dance because they share it. You know what I'm saying?"
Jimin is gaping at him so yeah, he definitely gets what Hoseok is saying. His cheeks are flushed but his eyes are frightened. Poor Jimin; he hates to hurt or displease people. Turning someone down will be so difficult for him.
"I- I have to go," he says, standing up abruptly and making his chair screech across the hardwood floor. He hasn't even touched his drink, and certainly doesn't remember to take it with him. Or maybe he doesn't want to feel like he owes Hoseok anything right now. "Sorry hyung, thank you for looking out for Taetae. Sorry."
Hoseok bites his lip, trying to hold back an actual honest-to-god giggle as Jimin flees.

Jin's Joon: Yes, that's the case according to Hobi.
PunmasterJin: so Jimin says one of them has feelings for Hobi!!!!!!
PunmasterJin: which one is it???
Jin's Joon: I wouldn't like to assume,
Jin's Joon: but considering Jungkook's reputation for fucking around,
Jin's Joon: I'd be leaning towards Taehyung, I guess? 
PunmasterJin: Tae has always been suspiciously quiet about his personal life!!!
Jin's Joon: That's because we mainly all talk about Yoongi-hyung and Jimin in the group chat.

"Just hold me," Jimin demands, throwing himself into Yoongi's hurriedly opening arms and burying his face in Yoongi's neck. Yoongi manages to unlock his dorm door one handed and guide Jimin inside. He isn't crying; he hasn't said a word or made a sound apart from his slow breathing, inhaling Yoongi's cologne from his hoodie deeply as if the familiar smell is a comfort to him.
"You've had so many rough days lately, hmmm?" Yoongi murmurs, though it isn't really a question he needs Jimin to try and answer. He guides them to the couch and pulls Jimin into his lap even though Jimin's thighs could crush him with ease. Jimin actually curls around him in a ball, and even though he's muscular in frame he's no bigger than Yoongi really. It's not uncomfortable. Yoongi runs a soothing hand up and down Jimin's back.
"I love you," Jimin murmurs emphatically against Yoongi's skin. Yoongi can't help the dopey smile that crosses his face. He must be doing something right to have such a sweet, beautiful boy so in love with him.
"I know," he replies. He can tell from Jimin's tone that it was just something he needed to share, not something he's said to get back the same reply.
"Well, nobody else seems to!" Jimin declares suddenly, sitting up. "So I want to make sure you know all the time. I love you. I'm not ashamed of you or scared of you, scared to let people know about you!"
"Babe, Jiminie, hey, I know," Yoongi promises, though he's not entirely certain Jimin is even able to hear him right now. "I'm gonna meet Tae soon, aren't I? Maybe when he's got his situation figured out..."
"Don't remind me." Jimin pouts, folding his arms across his chest. Yoongi can't help but be amused; Jimin would never disregard his best friend like that, he's just being contrary. He needs more affection and attention. Yoongi presses a kiss to Jimin's temple.
"What if we curl up under the covers and watch a movie?" He suggests, stroking at Jimin's side through his clothes. "And then later you get dressed up all pretty and I take you out for dinner? You need a treat so let's have a date night."
"You spoil me," Jimin hums happily, entwining his fingers with Yoongi's. If Yoongi has learnt anything over the time they've been together though, it's that Jimin loves being doted on. Maybe because it's how he shows his affection to others.
"I like taking care of you," Yoongi replies. "Someone has to look after the person who's always looking out for everyone else."
"What about you?" Jimin asks as he gets to his feet and waits for Yoongi to stand up with him.
"You always look after me too," Yoongi assures him.

Chapter 16
Summary:
Someone clue Jin and Namjoon into what's going on around here
because I won't8D
Notes:
ONE THOUSAND KUDOS. LITERALLY SMASHED THE 1K BARRIER. HOW. I CAN'T. WHAT THE. Is it just a handful of people adding kudos logged out as well as in? XDDD Even so that's a LOT of people reading and enjoying this. I'm just wow'ed, I really am. If anyone ever wants to make Yoonmin requests of me I'm happy to try, I'm so grateful to all of you and I'd love to give back even more when I can! <3
(I also have SO many WIPs it's obscene: a/b/o, mafia, multiple universes, rule!63, vampire!yoongi, angel!Jimin, childhood bffs, amateur porn stars... So to know what people want to see next after this would be nice XD)
(See the end of the chapter for more notes.)

[Taecup's status is set to BUSY]
J-Ho: okay Jiminie ran off when I fake confessed to him
J-Ho: LITERALLY ran off
J-Ho: so ya'll will have to wait on juicier info until I see him next
J-Ho: which I will contrive to happen, even if he tries to avoid me
J-Ho: meanwhile
J-Ho: We're overdue the latest Kookie sexcapade gossip over here, give it up babycakes
JK: uhhhhhh
JK: don't know how to tell you this hyung
JK: but there is none
J-Ho: WHAT???
Jin's Joon: Do mine eyes deceive me?
PunmasterJin: Isn't it doth?
Jin's Joon: Actually Jinnie, doth actually translates to the plural "does", so it would read as, "does mine eyes deceive me". In this instance you would actually use "do" even though "doth" sounds more archaic and therefore would seem correct.
PunmasterJin: Oh, huh. Interesting. Thank you for explaining, darling.
PunmasterJin: I love learning~
Jin's Joon: You're welcome. I'll see what else I can teach you later...
J-Ho: uhm guys
J-Ho: first of all shut up
J-Ho: SECONDLY
J-Ho: JEON JUNGKOOKIE EXPLAIN YOURSELF RIGHT NOW
JK: well
JK: i wasn't exactly planning on making an announcement about it or anything
PunmasterJin: I cannot believe you're telling your unbelievably handsome hyung to shut up, Jung Hoseok.
J-Ho: i'm really sorry Jinnie-hyung, i meant please could u and Joon possibly consider having conversations like this privately in the future pleaseplease pls
J-Ho: I'M JUST REALLY PANICKING RIGHT NOW
J-Ho: KOOKIE IS FREAKING ME OUT
JK: look, nobody needs to make a big deal out of it
JK: i'm trying abstinence
JK: celibacy
J-Ho: what the everloving fuck
JK: well
JK: nobody will ever take me seriously as a romantic interest if i carry on as i am will they
JK: it was yoongi-hyung's suggestion
JK: don't make a big deal out of it
PunmasterJin: Yoongi gave you advice?
Jin's Joon: Yoongi-hyung gave you romantic advice?
PunmasterJin: omg you're his new favourite dongsaeng
JK: yah i already figured that out it's not news to me
PunmasterJin: sorry Hoseok
PunmasterJin: that's karma for you
PunmasterJin: you should never be so rude to this hyung ever again

[private chat: kim.n, kim.s]
PunmasterJin: JOON JOON JOON JOON
Jin's Joon: I know, I was there too!
PunmasterJin: SO ARE WE WRONG? IS IT JK?
PunmasterJin: JK HAS FEELINGS FOR HOBI AND IS TRYING TO PROVE HE CAN STOP HIS FUCKBOI WAYS?
Jin's Joon: I honestly don't know! Neither of us do! But it seems... feasible at this point.
PunmasterJin: IT REMINDS ME OF WHEN YOU WANTED TO PROVE YOURSELF TO ME
PunmasterJin: I'M GONNA INVITE JK OVER TONIGHT AND NOOGIE THE HELL OUT OF HIM
PunmasterJin: THIS CUTE KID I SWEAR
Jin's Joon: You're the cutest kid-
PunmasterJin: Well thank you, darling
Jin's Joon: -because you're actually like a giant five year old.
PunmasterJin: I'm going to noogie you too
PunmasterJin: in the dick
PunmasterJin: It won't be as fun as it seems

Mochiminie: pls take me seriously
Suga: I am, Jimin, I am.
Suga: I promise.
Suga: I'm guessing you didn't tell me at any point over the last day we spent together because you were too scared to say whatever this is face-to-face?
Mochiminie: it's about last night
Suga: shit are you okay?
Suga: did I hurt you?
Suga: why didn't you say anything?!
Mochiminie: no its nothin like dat!

Mochiminie: i didnt tell u what upset me yesterday
Mochiminie: and u let me keep quiet about it
Mochiminie: or maybe u tht it was more Tae stuff idk
Suga: Yeah, I thought you were worried about Tae
Suga: So you're saying you used sex to try and get over your upset?
Mochiminie: am i the worst? ;;;;;;;;;;
Suga: Babe if you had asked I would've done it anyway
Suga: If you needed love and sex, and to feel intimate to be happy again
Mochiminie: ur making it sound nicer than it is
Suga: I don't think so
Suga: I think you're giving yourself an unneeded hard time.
Suga: What are you really feeling guilty about? What upset you yesterday? You clearly haven't been able to let it go. 
Mochiminie: MY STUPID DANCE HYUNG
Mochiminie: C ONFESSED TO ME
Mochiminie: TAETAE LIKES HIM, NOT ME. WHY IS THIS HAPPENING.
Mochiminie: OF COURSE IM NOT INTERESTED IN A RELATIONSHIP OR SEX WITH HIM

Suga: yeah babe, I did the same with you
Suga: He knows you.
Suga: He knows me.
Suga: He knows we're together and he's never said a word
Mochiminie: maybe he was just respecting our wishes to not introduce one another to our friends?
Mochiminie: so... we should thank him?
Mochiminie: no wait
Suga: No
Suga: If that was it he would've found a way to tell each of us he knows in a quiet aside
Suga: He can't keep his fool mouth shut ever unless it's for bad intentions
Mochiminie: all his tellin me hes "worried" my bf is bad or dangerous coz im hidin him!!!
Mochiminie: AND THE CONFESSION WAS A LIe
Suga: Jiminie, he's been playing us
Suga: I'm not saying he genuinely couldn't fall for you babe
Suga: but I've been telling him for months how great you are
Suga: How good you are for me
Suga: He's too great a friend to fuck with that
Suga: ...at least he *was* my friend.
Mochiminie: hyung!
Mochiminie: so he's fucking with us to make us confess what he already knows, right?
Mochiminie: don't murder him
Mochiminie: let's just fuck with him in turn
Mochiminie: til he confesses what we now know: that he knows both of us and always has
Mochiminie: and that he's a total pervert
Mochiminie: asking me for sex stories about his bff

[private chat: park.j, min.y ]
Mochiminie: so
Mochiminie: how would u feel if i suggested
Mochiminie: responding very positively to Hobi-hyung's fake love confession
Mochiminie: and coming onto him really strongly so he'll admit his dumb plan
Mochiminie: and that he has known about us for a long time now? 
Suga: A little jealous, a lot turned on, to be honest
Suga: I know how it feels to be on the receiving end of Park Jimin's seduction
Suga: A+, would recommend, except fuck off he's mine
Suga: (That's a direct quote from me to my friends from the recent past)
Mochiminie: i'll keep u in the loop the entire time baby
Mochiminie: u can even hide and witness everything if we can arrange specific times and places
Suga: you're an actual sex demon
Mochiminie: ur turned on aren't u
Mochiminie: don't u dare send me any dick pics while i'm at the salon and in public!!!

[private chat: park.j, min.y ]
Mochiminie: baby
Mochiminie: i hav news for u
Mochiminie: i didnt plan this
Mochiminie: but after the bleaching i decided not to keep the orange again this time
Suga: the fuck Jimin
Suga: You can't change your hair without warning a man!

Suga: There's a literal blond angel walking the earth
Suga: I feel unworthy right now
Mochiminie: [has shared a video clip]

"Hyung, stop being silly!"
Suga: Go seduce the fuck out of Hoseok
Suga: I want to see him with his tongue trailing on the goddamned floor
Suga: Panting over you like a dog in heat
Suga: I want him to have a six hour long, super painful boner that won't go away, like that time I slipped him Viagra for a laugh
Mochiminie: oh yep i've done that to Taetae before
Mochiminie: its what best friends do
Mochiminie: ur wish is my command baby

Suga: I really am in heaven

Notes:
I HOPE YOU WERE ALL SUFFICIENTLY AS FLOORED AS YOONGI BY OUR NEW BLOND!JIMIN :D
Chapter 17
Notes:
Shoutout (on the slim chance that they read fanfic, and even slimmer chance that they read MY fic) to the two girls who were both in the seafront gift shop I work in (in the UK), on different days within the past couple of weeks, who heard me listening to BTS and proceeded to come squee about it to me and ask me who my bias was. They were both Yoongi biases! SO HI I WAS THAT JIMIN BIAS GIRL, IT ME, I WRITE THIS ENJOYABLE FILTH <3
ALSO I'm not promising anything but I might have to do a Taehyung-centric sequel to bring his ~romantical journey~ to a full conclusion. It just makes sense since this is a Yoonmin centric story, and when the focus on them concludes it'd be weird to continue THIS fic with them pushed more into the background (but never fully background coz I'm Yoonmin trash of the highest calibre 8D)
AS ALWAYS I love you all, your support, your lovely comments that keep my spirits up and keep me writing to ensure you enjoy! There are over 500 people subscribed now, so happy update every single one of you who got an email notif about this! :D
...It's also belatedly occurred to me that even if it's just dropping them as bonus visual content in fic I should be crediting people for their images and gifs! I AM SO SORRY FOR NOT THINKING OF THIS BEFORE. If you need me to credit anything of yours tell me and I'll edit the notes for the chapter it's in immediately!

Suga: Hey, Jiminie
Suga: how come you and Hobi know one another?
Suga: I know you both dance, but you're in different grades
Suga: and I know as much as you wanted to you didn't join the dance club
Suga: on top of your dance courseload it'd be too much strain on your body
Suga: so how did you even meet? 
Mochiminie: well, okay hyung
Mochiminie: the reason I know Hobi-hyung
Mochiminie: is... becoz I got put onto the advanced dance course in freshman yr
Suga: you have literally *never* told me this babe
Suga: why not?
Mochiminie: I didnt want 2 sound like I was bragging!
Mochiminie: Im not really that good yet
Mochiminie: Im good but not advanced course good
Mochiminie: so I cant go around sayin it like I belong there
Suga: If they put you there and kept you there then you belong there, Jiminie
Suga: You're so fucking talented. I admit I know nothing about the technical details of contemp. dance
Suga: but what I do know really fucking intimately is how I feel whenever I see you dance
Suga: the beauty in your movements makes my entire being fill with peace and joy
Mochiminie: omfg hyung will u STOP
Mochiminie: stop it!!! Im not that good! Its nothing!
Mochiminie: ur so embarrassing when u get all poetic

Mochiminie: okay
Mochiminie: so lets consider our first step with messing with Hobi-hyung logically
Mochiminie: I freaked out and ran away frm hyung back wen I thought the confession was actually real
Mochiminie: so I cnt just b all over him and flirt like Im ttly recovered and into him straight away
Mochiminie: I think mayb ill ask him why he "loves" me? like im trying to understand why he confessed
Suga: you just want praise babe, I know you better than anyone

HopeAngel: AND WHY DIDNT I SEE IT? HOW COULD I NOT NOTICE?
JK: I'd rather not say right now

HopeAngel: Kookie
HopeAngel: I am sorry if I implied that being a fuckboi was a major personality trait of yours
HopeAngel: having sex with whoever you want whenever you want isn't bad or wrong
HopeAngel: and if you're offended by us calling you a fuckboi we will all stop it immediately
JK: god hyung
JK: you talk about 180 personalities
JK: but you go from fun loving and fancy free
JK: to serious emotions in 0.2 seconds flat
JK: although
JK: i'm used to that
JK: you are so emotions with everything
HopeAngel: Kook you're avoiding what I said
HopeAngel: are you upset and offended? tell me pls
JK: nah! not at all
JK: I kind of lived up to it
JK: and I know nobody was shaming me
JK: i just think if you take away the fuckboi i'm still me?
JK: i have stuff to offer people other than sex, right?
HopeAngel: 100% you absolutely do
HopeAngel: whoever you like is really lucky

JK: I'll wait for you to give me the go ahead
JK: if you decide you ever want to
Taecup: what if I decide to confess to Hobi-hyung instead and work past my feelings for you, Kookie?
JK: well
JK: it's still good for me in myself to find out if I can date and try monogamy isn't it
Taecup: i hope you really believ that an arent just sayin it
Taecup: becoz its a good attitude to hav
Taecup: dont do anythin for another person
Taecup: do it for YOU Kookie
Taecup: and u can be pissed at me for the decision if it happens

PunmasterJin: just so he'll confess that Yoongi is his boyfriend
Jin's Joon: Yeah, it's okay, Hobi-hyung. You're managing it in a controlled setting. Between Taehyung and Jungkook, Jin and I we can keep an eye on any resulting happenings between Jimin and Yoongi-hyung.
Taecup: ...my Chimchim is conflicted?

Suga: He's got enough to worry about without our game to keep a secret too
Suga: shit
Suga: Don't tell anyone I showed concern for a person I've never met
Mochiminie: baby
Mochiminie: i hate to tell u this
Mochiminie: but if i can see how u (badly) try to hide that u care about the ppl u love
Mochiminie: i assure u that all your other friends know it too

Jimin isn't sure he's ready to mess with Hoseok face-to-face yet, but given that they share a dance class he has no choice but to stuff his worries down deep in his belly and just go with it. Yoongi has promised to be nearby as invisible moral support, which helps more than he will ever really know. Jimin is only able to swagger confidently about this situation because he has Yoongi, the king of false swagger, beside him always.
He tries not to flinch too much when he feels Hoseok's hand come down on his shoulder, fingers digging in a little like claws.
"Jimin," he says, "are you alright? I've been worrying and I just had to come check."
"Hyung, you're so extra," Jimin mumbles playfully. "It's a good thing I know you only get accidentally rough because you care so much."
Hoseok's eyes widen as he realises how hard he must be gripping Jimin, even though Jimin isn't showing any signs of discomfort, not even a little grimace.
"Sorry, I get carried away-"
"It's alright," Jimin says smoothly.
"-I am genuinely concerned though. After what you said, about you and your boyfriend. If things aren't healthy between you I care a lot, but if things aren't good between you and you're personally upset I care even more!"
"Mmm," Jimin doesn't know what to say anymore so he just hums instead. Time to make a break for it. As he picks up his bag to leave Jimin says softly, "nobody cares about me quite like you do, Hobi-hyung..."
It's not a lie; all of Jimin's friends care for him in different ways because they're all individuals with unique perspectives on life and different views on how best to support others. But he knows the way it sounds, how much of a romantic slant there is to his words, and that's exactly what he's going for.

HopeAngel: of course! I'm your friend first and foremost forever
HopeAngel: what's up Jiminie?
Mochiminie: well
Mochiminie: its a friend of mine
Mochiminie: havin relationship issues
Mochiminie: and i want to give advice but idk what to say
HopeAngel: okay, what is the issue?
Mochiminie: well
Mochiminie: i think it's that he's worried they're just too different?
Mochiminie: he hasn't said it outright
Mochiminie: but i think he's worryin because he's upbeat and his
Mochiminie: girlfriend
Mochiminie: is more negative and he's always acepted her as she is
Mochiminie: but the longer the relationship goes on
Mochiminie: i think the pessimism might be draining him and draggin him down

"Hey," Yoongi says, nuzzling his face into the crook of Jimin's neck from behind before reaching to nip at his ear. Jimin wriggles happily on his lap as he watches his phone for a reply from Hoseok. "I'd be offended if you really thought I was like that. I'm kind of offended you think this is feasible enough that Hobi will buy it-"
Yoongi is the first one of the two of them to receive a message from Hoseok, however.

Suga: what the fuck
Suga: we were fine earlier?
HopeAngel: Oh I know
HopeAngel: I just mean in general
HopeAngel: you know?
Suga: don't tell me how to live my life
HopeAngel: Min Yoongi you just better not be pushing people who are really good for you out of your life on purpose okay! No self destructive nonsense.
Suga: I'm not. I don't know where you got this numbskull idea from. I know full well I'm stuck with you now.
HopeAngel: Don't just think of it in regards to me, hyung.

"Urgh," Yoongi thrusts the phone into Jimin's eye line. "You were messing with him and it was getting me all hot for you until he went and did that."
Jimin turns just enough that Yoongi can see his nose crinkling as he smiles a fond smile.
"See?" He says. "Hobi-hyung is too sweet! ...He's just been really silly trying to mess with us too." Jimin leans in and a kiss is pressed to the tip of Yoongi's nose before he can register it coming. He blinks. "I'm glad that if you ever did try to push me away your best friend would be there telling you what an idiot you are."
Yoongi tightens his hold around Jimin's waist, sighing into his soft sweater. "I'm not going to," he insists. "And don't act like your track record for relationships was any better before me either."
"Yes hyung~" Jimin sing-songs obediently.
"Also, he's not being very subtle considering he knows we're together," Yoongi snorts. "Confessing to you but then yelling at me to ensure he 'saves' our relationship? We do talk to one another, he seems to have forgotten that. He's so damn flustered he's thinking even less than usual."

HopeAngel: oh Jimin that sounds tough for your friend
HopeAngel: i think it's important for him to talk to his
HopeAngel: girlfriend
HopeAngel: about it though

"Hyung, look!" Jimin giggles, tugging at Yoongi's sleeve. "Hobi-hyung put the same fake-belated message for 'girlfriend'. It's like he wants me to know he knows the hypothetical friend is really me and the girlfriend is a boyfriend really!"
"Of course," Yoongi smiles wryly. "You're both about as subtle as a brick to the small of the back."

[private chat: jung.h, park.j ]
HopeAngel: maybe she just doesn't realise how negative she's being?
HopeAngel: i mean
HopeAngel: i have a friend like that, a little
HopeAngel: sometimes he gets carried away with his destructive thoughts
HopeAngel: and he doesn't realise how deep he's gotten in or how dark he's gotten
HopeAngel: not until I or one of his other friends point it out to him
HopeAngel: some people need a little reality check
HopeAngel: especially from their sig. other
-
"He's talking about Joon," Yoongi says when Jimin shoots him a pointed look. "Joon-ah gets all philosophical and it turns dark pretty damn quick if he's not careful. Lucky he's got Jin-hyung to snap him out of it. That's my ex-roomie and the boyfriend he moved in with."
"Okay," Jimin says after a pause. Then he exhales and his body looses all its tension again as he snuggles bonelessly against Yoongi's chest. "I like hearing about your friends, even a little. I have a friend called Jin-hyung too! Maybe they can meet sometime."
"Yeah," Yoongi agrees easily. "Sure, babe."

"Was that a genuine typo or on purpose?"
"On purpose of course, hyung! Seriously, don't you trust my scheming yet?"
"Urgh, Jimin, you're too much sometimes."
"Mmm, I can feel your growing approval right under my ass."
-
[private chat: jung.h, park.j ]
HopeAngel: just be supportive and tell your friend not to give up too easily
HopeAngel: but at the same time
HopeAngel: if after a few tries he can't get through to her
HopeAngel: and she's not willing to try or compromise
HopeAngel: he has to remember communication is key to a relationship
HopeAngel: and so is give and take
Mochiminie: hm
Mochiminie: thanks u Hobi-hyung
Mochiminie: youve given me a lot to think about!
Mochiminie: for what to say to my friend i mean
Mochiminie: communication and compromising and giv n take
Mochiminie: thats a good way of puttin it
HopeAngel: Jiminie, i want you to think about if you have all that stuff in YOUR relationship too okay
Mochiminie: okay hyung sure
Mochiminie: can u cool it tho? this chasing of me is kinda relentless
-
"Was that message really meant for him or was it a hint to me?"
Jimin drops his phone down onto the couch beside the two of them and lets his head fall back against Yoongi's shoulder. The hands that had made their way up his sweater continue to stroke lazily at his abs. Yoongi has this languid, cat-like way of rubbing up against and pawing at everything he wants to lay claim to. Jimin lets his eyes fall shut and hums contentedly.
"I would never tell you not to be relentless, hyung," he assures Yoongi. "You've got to keep up with my stamina."
"Cheeky little shit," Yoongi mutters, but he can't disagree considering Jimin's ridiculously short, almost unreal refractory period. And anyway, he isn't going to stop touching Jimin wherever he wants just because of one smartass comment.

Jin's Joon: It's not?
PunmasterJin: But Jimin said!
Jin's Joon: Jimin said, "one of his best friends" likes Hobi, right, Jinnie?
Jin's Joon: It was us who jumped to the wrong conclusion, apparently.
PunmasterJin: Now now, we did think of Taehyung first! But then JK did this celibacy thing.
JK: why am I feeling shocked that you guys gossip about us
PunmasterJin: Jungshook x2!
JK: yes I like someone, but I'm doing the celibacy thing for MYSELF too. I can't confess to someone without knowing first if I can lay off sex with random people. And I need to know myself as a person.
PunmasterJin: mmhmmm mmmmhmmm yeah okay
PunmasterJin: SO TAEHYUNG LIKES HOBI?
JK: how would I know
JK: Look hyung, if he wanted people knowing he would've told them. Jimin is his bestfriendsoulmate so of course he told him.
JK: And Jimin doesn't know you know Taehyung so he didn't realise you'd figure it out.
JK: It sucks that it came out that way but you need to keep it a secret.

PunmasterJin: Do we think Hobi likes Taehyung BACK?
PunmasterJin: They've always been very flirty in the gc!
PunmasterJin: Although, maybe not so much recently.
Jin's Joon: Well, that might be because Taehyung is harbouring actual romantic feelings now.
Jin's Joon: So expressing them playfully as a joke has no allure anymore.
PunmasterJin: You're so smart.
Jin's Joon: Oh come on, not that smart.
Jin's Joon: Most of the time I can't even walk through doorways properly. Without hurting myself.

Mochiminie: ...are we sexting right now? r we actually sextin?
Taecup: are u getting off on this?
Mochiminie: noo
Taecup: then is not sexting!
-
"Yoongi?"
"Ngh, what?"
"If I text Taetae very detailed descriptions of our sex life for him to get off to, is that sexting?"
"...What."
"Never mind~"
"Jimin, is that a thing you do? Jimin? Park Jimin!"
"I didn't realise you didn't know I did it! My phone is an open book for you."
"That doesn't mean I go reading all of your private chats with your friends. I'm not controlling."
"Well, just read these few to Taetae..."
-
"Okay, I've decided that I'm okay with this. You were very complimentary about me."
"Well of course, hyung! I wouldn't be fucking you multiple times a week if you weren't amazing at it."
"I can't believe you told your friends I have a massive dick."
"Well if you're not going to brag about it somebody has to."
"Doesn't mean a thing if you don't know how to use it, babe."
"But you do. And maybe I'm a bit of a size queen. So sue me."
"Just so you know though, you and Tae have a platonic-bestfriend relationship that's somehow vaguely incestuous."
-
Taehyung doesn't actually get off imagining Jimin and his boyfriend have sex, even though he does technically know what Yoongi looks like and therefore could. But Jimin doesn't know that, so Jimin can't suspect that Taehyung would be able to picture their faces in his mind as his bestfriendsoulmate tells Taehyung his dirty sex stories. Those stories are just a bit of spice to get Taehyung in the right mood. Words and thoughts aren't really enough otherwise; he turns to porn after that and has himself a happy little time with his Taetae Junior.
Is it any wonder then that it takes him quite a while post-orgasm to string together a few key things his brain had collected earlier in all of its quirky cleverness? "Some guy" messing with Jimin. Jimin and Yoongi working together to mess with him back. Hobi-hyung yelling once in the group chat that Yoongi was his best friend. This guy they're messing with being Yoongi's best friend. Hobi-hyung telling everyone Jimin was legit flustered by his confession, and worried he was actually creating an issue in Jimin and Yoongi's relationship.
Jimin not telling him that he's conflicted about his relationship with Yoongi is because he isn't. Not telling him that Hoseok had confessed to him and that he's, "so sorry Taehyung, it's not fair that he's interested in me! I have a boyfriend, and it's you who likes him, not me! This sucks, I'm so sorry muffin, lets get so, so drunk-"
-because he knows it's a fake confession!

Taecup: and now ur playing along with it

Chapter 19
Summary:
Did someone ask for YoonVMin bonding times?
Notes:
Guys, I didn't mean to keep you hanging but I had to give a lot of thought to making Tae's revelation to Jimin (hopefully) emotionally satisfying for you all. It's hard from an insider perspective to imagine what would be rewarding for readers to read with new eyes! I have people who tell me they can't stop reading this over, meanwhile I'm reading it over and over and over to look for relationship dynamics that need fleshing out, pieces of plot that need moving along and I'm like PLEASE CAN I NOT HAVE TO READ THIS AGAIN OHMYGOD. LOL. It's hella awkward when it's your own writing, just ewwwww XDDDD
And I had a thought! If anyone wants to do an Ask The Author and ask me anything about aspects of this story, my ideas, what I'm working on, my writing process or headcanons please do! I'll answer them gladly :D
That being said... Here it is XD Enjoy!

When the knock sounds on Yoongi's dorm room door Jimin actually freezes whilst stepping halfway into his jeans.
"He found us," he says in a hushed tone, eyes wide with fear. Yoongi snorts. Yeah, it is Kim Taehyung on the other side of the door, but Jimin doesn't know that while he was in the bathroom his boyfriend liberated Taehyung's phone number from his phone and messaged him the address. Jimin's acting like Taehyung actually has ESP or something and discovered their whereabouts using mystic, galactic forces.
Jimin is not impressed by Yoongi's snort. "Hyung!" He whispers harshly. "I've been dating you for like eight months and in that time nobody has ever once knocked on your door, not even your RA. What else am I supposed to think?!"
"That people know better than to disturb me," he replies shortly. Even Jin and Namjoon - even Hoseok - know better than to come barging into Yoongi's space rather than wait for him to come to them.
Well, more like his and Jimin's space now; it's a dorm room for two to share after all, and they share it more often than not lately.
"Chimchim!" Taehyung chirps through the door, thankfully with the presence of mind to be just quiet enough not to wake anyone (fortunate enough to still be) sleeping at this super dumb early morning hour.
Jimin goes to the door on autopilot, opening it with a jerky hand and blinking owlishly at Taehyung. Taehyung dives in for a hug, all long flailing arms and squeezing, and Jimin throws a glance back behind him to Yoongi, watching suspiciously from the bed, totally obviously hiding his fond smile beneath the bedsheet that's now drawn up to his nose.
Jimin's entire face softens when he connects the dots. He knows how Taehyung came to be here within minutes of Yoongi emphatically saying 'no way, no how'. Yoongi can see the gratitude in his eyes even though he doesn't verbalise it.
"Yoongi-hyung!" Taehyung yells, slicing through the tender moment almost literally, bouncing into the room like he's performing a karate move, making a chopping motion with his forearm. He bounces onto the bed, setting off a chain reaction that makes Yoongi bob up and down in place. "I'm Kim Taehyung! Jimin's bestest best friend and souliest soulmate! No threat to you though, I promise! We don't touch dangly bits."
"You're too loud is what you are," Yoongi mumbles. "What did I say before about not making me regret this?"
"Come on, Taetae," Jimin says, intervening between the two of them by slipping back into the bed. He presses himself tightly alongside Yoongi and pats the empty space still left beside him. "Sit down."
"There's a couch over there," Yoongi mutters, but he already knows that piece of sensible advice is going to go completely ignored.
"Wow!" Taehyung yells in response, pointing across the room. "There are so many awards and trophies! HYUNG IS SO COOL."
"Yes, he is," Yoongi replies immediately. "And still tired." He clutches the covers tighter to himself, rolling around trying to create a cocoon. "Jiminie, get hyung his noise-cancelling headphones."
"I'm sorry," Jimin whispers, reaching over Yoongi to the bedside table and groping about for the headphones. In the end he has to roll on top of Yoongi to rummage through the top drawer one-handed, giving Yoongi a quick kiss to the end of his nose to apologise for the boisterousness. He turns to look at Taehyung. "Hyung isn't always this grumpy, he's just not a morning person."
"I'm not offended," Taehyung says easily, grinning. "Yoongi-hyung already proved to me that he's a massive big softie for my Chimchim by telling me his dorm room number this morning just to make you happy! I know he doesn't mean any of it."
"Yes I do." Yoongi smiles bleary gratitude at Jimin as he brandishes the headphones he's just found. It only lasts a moment. "You are too loud, and I am still tired." As Jimin climbs off him again Yoongi turns away from them both in the bed, showing his back very deliberately before slipping the headphones on.
"Yes, but see, hyung hasn't said anything mean to me, or that he doesn't like me!"
Jimin has to admit Taehyung has a very valid point there.
It isn't long before Taehyung forgets to whisper when he talks though, and Jimin starts to fret that the noise cancelling headphones won't be enough to help Yoongi sleep, so he throws on a shirt to go with his jeans and takes Taehyung out for a breakfast of pancakes and waffles. (Because why choose between them when you can have both?) They both love sweet foods at any time of the day.
While Taehyung is grabbing them both napkins for the mess they're inevitably going to make with syrup and sauces Jimin starts idly looking back over the wall of texts that Taehyung had shot him in the middle of the night, and smiling to himself over how chill Taehyung is being about the whole thing. He isn't worried that Jimin is going to be angry with him for deceiving him once he found out Yoongi's identity, and he isn't angry about Jimin messing with Hobi-hyung (who, to be fair, started messing with him first!). At least, Jimin doesn't think he is.
"We're okay, aren't we?" Jimin asks, worrying at his lip as Taehyung comes back to the table.
"What? Of course! He's small, isn't he?" Taehyung says, sitting back down and making the seat cushion beneath him sigh. Jimin gives him the, 'you changed topic so suddenly, give me some context' look. Taehyung clarifies: "Yoongi-hyung."
"He's the perfect size," Jimin retorts. Height is such a sore spot for he and Yoongi both. Taehyung can tell from his tone of voice how he's taken it, and shakes his head immediately.
"No!" He says. "I mean, I already knew he was your height from pictures, I wasn't talking about that. What I meant is that he's really skinny, isn't he!"
"Oh!" Jimin chuckles. "Yeah, well, he forgets to eat. And then because he's so hungry he stuffs himself silly and it puts him off food all over again for ages. He's got terrible eating habits."
"We should've made him come out with us for breakfast."
"Oh no, Tae, he wouldn't have eaten anyway-"

"Tae, what are you doing?" Jimin shakes his head at the new group chat notifications blowing up his phone. "Hyung is asleep with noise cancelling headphones on! He won't hear no matter how many messages you send."
"It's important!" Taehyung insists, waving around his drink. A little of it sloshes out of the glass and onto his hoodie. Jimin cringes, but a laugh bubbles up out of him. "Maybe he won't answer right away but I can't wait on asking!"
"But seriously," Jimin says, "you're not mad at me for keeping Yoongi-hyung a secret from you? And you aren't worried that I'm angry you knew and then didn't tell me?"
"That'd be hypocritical of you," Taehyung points out. "Why would I be mad? You only kept his name a secret! I saw his face, and heard stories about him, and knew my Chimchim fell in love with him-"
"Well, that. Aren't you mad you didn't meet him before I fell properly in love with him?"
Taehyung cocks his head. "Are you trying to make me mad at you?"
Jimin feels himself giggling again. He's been wanting for so long for Yoongi and Taehyung to meet and now he gets to have them both together whenever he wants! It's so surreal, like walking on clouds. He definitely feels like he's up high and a little off-kilter, but not in a bad way. It's new, and logically it should be scary, but mostly it's just awe-inspiring and wondrous. He knows why he didn't do this sooner, but at the same time, why didn't he want them to meet sooner?!
And, funniest of all, Yoongi's still in bed and he and Taehyung have actually barely even interacted. It's not about the words exchanged. It's about openly knowing one another and existing in the same place at the same time, Jimin's Venn diagram of best friend and boyfriend finally overlapping.
"Waffles," Yoongi murmurs suddenly, sliding into the seat next to Jimin and pulling his baseball cap lower over his eyes. Jimin reaches up to brush a stray hair from the shoulder of Yoongi's t-shirt.
"Really?" Jimin replies once he's had a moment to process the blasphemy that has just left Yoongi's mouth. "I like both, but if you had to choose or die... Really?!"
"Team waffles!" Taehyung holds his hand up for a high five.
Jimin is both completely shocked and yet not surprised at all when a wicked smile graces Yoongi's face and he slaps the outstretched palm readily.
"How can my boyfriend and my best friend both betray me this way?" He groans.
At least it justifies him stealing the entire stack of leftover pancakes for himself. Ingrates, the both of them.

PunmasterJin: I have a game!
PunmasterJin: Joon, Hobi - no relationship repurcussions for us, Joonie - and I'll play too.
PunmasterJin: If you were to date one of the maknaes, who would it be? 
Jin's Joon: I literally haven't even met Jimin.
Jin's Joon: Not that I would've picked him anyway, even hypothetically, because Yoongi-hyung.
Jin's Joon: I just wanted to point out how my hypothetical options in this scenario are more narrow than both of yours.
JK: hey, Tae-hyung and I both go here
JK: please don't do this
PunmasterJin: JK! It's hypothetical!
JK: yeah, you've both said that quite a few times now
JK: hyungs
PunmasterJin: I will go first as a show of faith.
PunmasterJin: I'll pick JK, even though he's a little shit.
PunmasterJin: Because he's the most adorable bunny-smile manwhore ever.
PunmasterJin: And with all that experience,
JK: DON'T FINISH THAT SENTENCE HYUNG
Jin's Joon: Seriously! Please, Jinnie. I know where it's going but I'd like to have plausible deniability.
PunmasterJin: LOLOLOL you're both so easy to get riled up.
PunmasterJin: Where is everyone else?
Taecup: Sorry hyung! i'm breakfasting w my JimChims~
Taecup: talk l8r!

PunmasterJin: Hoseokkie?
HopeAngel: I'm here!
HopeAngel: lol just spectating a bit
HopeAngel: I should say Jiminie, shouldn't I? 
PunmasterJin: Well, you can?
PunmasterJin: That's not as fun though, if you're just saying it because of the plan. 
Jin's Joon: Okay, I've given it some consideration.
Jin's Joon: And I think I'll have to say I would hypothetically date Taehyung.
Jin's Joon: I think we could have interesting conversations; I enjoy the way his mind works. 
PunmasterJin: Oh wow Joonie you really did think it through. Not that that surprises me!
PunmasterJin: You're so cute.

PunmasterJin: Wow you are such a drama queen, JK
JK: you're trying to scope out if Hobi-hyung likes Tae-hyung back!
JK: you're being slightly more subtle about it than i would've given you credit for
JK: but still
JK: omg. hyung.
JK: you're so embarrassing
JK: stop it. 
Jin's Joon: To be fair, a hypothetical and game-like scenario isn't the situation in which someone would confess genuine feelings, or come to realise them, probably.
PunmasterJin: Oh really? That's a far cry from, "that's a good idea, Jinnie! Try it in the group chat later!"
PunmasterJin: Care to explain?
Jin's Joon: ...

"Do you feel like I've been neglecting you?"
"What?" Taehyung looks at Jimin like he's just been asked to calculate the time it would take to get to Neptune in a New York taxi. "You saying this 'coz you sleep over at Yoongi-hyung's a lot more now?" Jimin nods. "Yeah well, I get it! With hyung you get to be the big spoon-"
Yoongi makes a warning noise; he's not ashamed, it's just a personal preference and therefore should be kept personal. Not broadcast to the entire restaurant.
"-and when we're asleep I wouldn't be having Chim-time anyway! Of course you haven't been neglecting me. Who has been there for me through all my..." for the first time that day Taehyung pulls a face that isn't bright or bubbly, mouth twisting as he searches out his words, before finally deciding on the vague, "feelings stuff?"
"Taetae," Jimin reaches across the table to place a hand over Taehyung's, even though Taehyung's fingers are longer and his palm broader, his hand swamping Jimin's even though his is the one beneath, "Yoongi-hyung knows about your feelings for Hobi-hyung."
"I take issue with your taste," Yoongi deadpans, but he's grinning.
"He's really great for advice, if you ever want to talk to him about... stuff," Jimin finishes.
"Hey! Don't offer me out as a therapist."

[Mochiminie's status is set to BUSY]
HopeAngel: Hey Jimin, I know you're busy,
HopeAngel: This is actually ideal for me right now, I want to just get this out and say it without interruption.
HopeAngel: First of all, I thought over what you said yesterday about me chasing after you relentlessly, and you're right.
HopeAngel: I've let myself behave in too pushy a way because you already know me so well that I knew you'd see past that, you'd know that wasn't really the real me.
HopeAngel: But I'm giving you the worst impression of what I'd be like as a romantic interest instead of a friend.
HopeAngel: And as your friend and only your friend I am so sorry for freaking you out.
HopeAngel: You told me you have a boyfriend and I do totally respect that.
HopeAngel: But,
HopeAngel: You also told me you were confused and mixed up after my confession, which makes me think a part of you could like me too.
HopeAngel: so can you blame me for keeping my hope alive? Hope is in my blood.
-
"Holy shit," Yoongi whistles quietly after reading the messages on Jimin's phone. He chuckles breathily. "Hobi's really bringing out the big guns. Are we sure he doesn't know that we know? He seems pretty fucking intent on breaking us up considering this is meant to be a big ploy. Does he even remember his end-game plan anymore, I wonder."
"Taetae?" Jimin looks over at Taehyung with wide eyes. It's unfair how he can look so innocent and easy to hurt considering his 100% success rate with his seductive bedroom eyes, and the endless amount of rock-hard muscles lurking beneath his clothes.
"I honestly don't know anything!" Taehyung protests, hands up in the air. "Bestfriendsoulmatesforlife promise, cross my heart! If Hobi-hyung knows you guys know about him messing with you it wasn't through me, and I don't know if he even does!"
"Hmm," Yoongi considers the messages again with a critical eye. "Babe, you've gotta go harder with this. Go try and kiss him or something."
"Yoongi!" Jimin laughs as he smacks Yoongi in the arm. "You would be furious if we got anywhere near close enough to kiss! Are you really this competitive?"
"No, but Hobi is."
"Anyway, Taetae is right here! Tae, we can't ask you to keep all of this a secret. I mean, I could, but I won't."
"Nah, it's fine," Taehyung shrugs. "I kept it from you that Hobi-hyung was friends with both of you, and pretended I didn't find out Yoongi-hyung's name that one time before. If I can hide stuff from you then I know now it'll be way easier to keep things from everyone else ever! I have no guilt over it. Messing with you was Hobi-hyung's plan anyway. I never said to him that it was a bad idea, but I never outright said it was a good one, either."

Chapter 20
Notes:
Hey guys, I feel like this update is going up so I can basically just say my mental health has been at a low for weeks now, and my self-confidence is terrible, so I haven't been writing. Basically all of this chapter was all written a while back and I've just decided to post what there is so that you all get SOME kind of content and development for now.
I'm not good at a lot of things XD Titles, plot, development, description. I'm not a reliable writer. My mental health keeps me from doing things I enjoy, like writing fic. I'm always concerned as I move toward ending my fics that they'll go to pieces and let everyone down. That's my own worry, not anything anyone has said or done, but it grows into feeling useless and worthless when my brain is playing up on me. I just don't feel like I'm worth anyone's time even though I've had a lot of love and support and sweet comments, and again that's my brain warping things. I DO appreciate every nice word and every compliment. My brain just refuses to translate that into me being valued.
ANYWAY, I hope that having something to read makes up somewhat for the wait! I'll keep my chin up and battle my jerkbrain. I should come out on top, I'm just not sure how long it'll take XD;; Love to you guys <333 Thank you.

[private chat: min.y, kim.n]
Joon: Yoongi-hyung, I need to talk.
Joon: Last night I had a sex dream.
Suga: Okay look, 
Suga: I lived with Jin-hyung, he's like an actual brother to me. 
Suga: I acknowledge that you guys have sex, and I've even listened to your tmi stories about it, 
Suga: but I regret ever giving either of you the impression that I want to hear all about my hyung's naked-in-bed time because I really, really don't. 
Joon: ...The dream wasn't about Jin.
Suga: you'd better not be telling me because it was about ME, Kim Namjoon.
Suga: I know how to remove testicles with a variety of instruments, including bare hands.
Joon: No! It wasn't anyone you know! At least, I don't think you know them. Anyway, that's not at all important. 
Joon: Just someone I used to... You know. 
Joon: The point being, I feel so guilty even though I haven't done anything wrong! I can't control my dreams, hyung! I can't police my unconscious thoughts.
Suga: of course you can't.
Joon: My concern is that my subconscious is, well, bored? It seems to be playing out the scenario of me sleeping with someone else because I've been monogomous for so long now.
Suga: yes. three years. so long, Joon. you're practically about to smash the world record for longest relationship ever.
Joon: You're always so sarcastic with me when I'm panicking! Hyung, please, help me properly?
Suga: just tell Jin-hyung.
Joon: Uhm, no?
Suga: You want my advice, that's my advice. 
Suga: And then,
Joon: Then?
Suga: ...Then roleplay hyung being a bored, unappreciated house-husband who you swoop in and seduce from under his husband's nose. Spice it up a bit, jeeze.
Joon: That was a very specific scenario you devised very quickly there, hyung.
Suga: what can I say? My boyfriend gets a kick out of browsing online for lists of roleplay scenarios. We laugh together at most of them, and then we find a good one and just talking about it gets him hot, which works for me because I don't have to actually dress up or act anything out. My laziness loves that.

[private chat: min.y, kim.s]
Jin: Yoongiiiiiiiiiiiiii
Suga: oh jeeze
Jin: what?!
Suga: you only get like that when you have a Namjoon issue.
Jin: Not true! No I don't... Okay yes I do.
Jin: Only this time, though! 
Suga: Spit it out, I'm on the edge of my seat.
Jin: Joonie had a sex dream about someone else last night. 
Jin: I heard him moaning someone else's name in his sleep. 
Suga: Wow.
Suga: I had no idea.
Suga: Namjoon did not freak out about this to me this morning at all. 
Jin: Well, I'm not surprised that he did.
Jin: It's just that I'm trying to be cool about this, Yoongi!!!
Jin: He was asleep, he didn't know he was going to dream it! He slept around plenty before we got together, and his past is his past and that's fine! He's with me now, he's never shown the slightest desire to stray from me, 
Jin: never seemed in the least unsatisfied by me.
Jin: I am trying not to feel like I'm suddenly undesirable. It goes against every bit of self-love that I stand for, and all of my rational experiences with him. 
Suga: oh hyung
Suga: Joon loves you more than life itself. 
Suga: I know me saying that isn't just going to help
Suga: You're allowed to freak out, you can't help that. But if you wanna reassure yourself you're still desirable to him
Jin: Yeah? 
Jin: Yoongi?
Suga: Sorry, I just hate myself a little for getting so involved in your lovelife
Suga: Trying not to throw up in my own mouth
Jin: Drama queen.
Suga: Like
Suga: Dress up for him or something, I don't know. Whatever he's into. Uniform or a maid outfit or being a fucking furry.
Suga: I. Don't. Want. To. Know. 
Jin: Hey Yoongi
Jin: Thanks for listening
Jin: Even if you complain about it every two seconds
Jin: I get advice in the end, so I guess it's worth it.
Suga: You guess?

Yoongi's a fucking genius. Obviously this isn't news to him, but every so often he just has to acknowledge it to himself anew because he's just had such a goddamn good epiphany.
Jimin's been the one fucking with Hoseok so far, but now is Yoongi's time to shine. Very subtly. More like a tiny glow. A little glowbug. But a genius one. One that doesn't have to be bright and loud and proud to know it's a genius, one that doesn't need credit except within his own mind.
He's always kind of quiet. He usually just has very little that's worth sharing, and when he does he goes on until his friends roll their eyes, but there's a different kind of quiet that hangs in the air when you're brooding. Or fake-brooding.
"You alright?"
"Fine."
"Yeah, sure," Hoseok snorts. He's been dealing with this moping for like a whole hour now. "You're clearly not, but whatever, fine. If you want to play hard to get and not tell me and just sit and suffer and stew in your own teenage angst-"
"Can't be teenage angst if I'm not a teenager, dumbass."
Hoseok knows that Yoongi knows what he meant. He rolls his eyes. Yoongi gives him a flat look.
Then nothing.
"I dunno." Yoongi is silent for a good two minutes but Hoseok sits and waits patiently. Yoongi's begun, he'll finish. His hyung just takes a long time to consider his words before he says them sometimes. "I guess lately, I just. I don't feel like I have my boyfriend's full attention. I think he's getting tired of me. Everyone does eventually, right? I'm hard work to be around, let alone be in a relationship with. The poor kid is probably suffering all the time."
"Hyung!" Hoseok immediately pushes himself into Yoongi's personal space but doesn't extend his hands or arms, waits for Yoongi to reach for him. "No! Don't get down on yourself like this, please! I'm sure you're just reading into it too much, you should ask him what's on his mind instead of listening to your anxiety and assuming the worst, most negative things!"
"Anxiety doesn't just go away-"
"No," Hoseok agrees, cutting Yoongi off swiftly. He does understand that, he really does. "But hearing his explanation straight from his mouth will be more reassuring than listening to your brain come up with all the worst possible scenarios like it is now. It's probably schoolwork or something getting him down, nothing to do with you at all! You trust him to tell you the truth, don't you?"
"Of course," Yoongi says immediately, then realises he should probably hedge on that. "I mean, I did. I'm not so sure now. If he's drifting from me he's not going to want to be honest about it, is he?"
"Yes he is," Hoseok promises. "He wouldn't keep himself somewhere he didn't want to be just to save your feelings if he'd stopped caring about them as much. Or about you. So I think he does. I bet he loves you a whole lot. It's not what you think at all, I know it."

Mochiminie: so wot is the actual explanation as to how this doesnt change ur mind abt TaeTae?
Mochiminie: coz ur literally wantin to see someone else
JK: hyung, it's like this
JK: how can I date anyone for the first time ever and not have it be like they're a guinea pig?
JK: I've been thinking about it, what you said
JK: But everyone has to have a first time, a first date
JK: Just to try it and see what it's like
JK: but I don't want my test run to be Taehyung
JK: I don't want to ask anyone else for help with this, even though askin YOU is awkward for us both
JK: you're still one of my best friends
JK: If I try and ask anyone out myself they'll think I just want a hookup
JK: please hyung?
JK: you must know someone I can take out just to, like, hang out
JK: but who i would be attracted to in theory
Mochiminie: alright, for Tae's sake
Mochiminie: so u can be sure he's who u want 
Mochiminie: and not just a fad coz he's someone who likes u for more than ur dick, but doesnt just like u platonically either

Suga: Anyway, what were you going to tell me?
Mochiminie: OH
Mochiminie: okay so
Mochiminie: my fuckboi friend wants to be set up on a date and try that instead of wild fucking
Mochiminie: so I was rackin my brains trying to think who i could set him up with
Mochiminie: and i realised
Mochiminie: my top choice would've been this one particular sophomore, he's tall and v cute faced
Mochiminie: except
Mochiminie: i guess i thought of him becoz they already fucked around and were well matched
Mochiminie: til the guy caught feelings and my friend ran for the hills
Mochiminie: so setting that back up would lead to even worse heartbreak
Mochiminie: like damn, why cant people be simple and not fuckbois?

Mochiminie: oh i know, thats what hes trying to do
Mochiminie: i just cant involve someone elses heart too

Taehyung almost walks right past Yoongi, not even realising that there was someone sitting shadowed on the bench, clad all in black right down to his beanie and face mask. He jumps almost out of his skin when bony fingers grab him and yank him backwards though.
"Ah! The cold, clammy hand of death!" Taehyung yelps, limbs flailing as he lands on the bench a lttle more heavily than he would've liked. Not enough to wake up tomorrow with a bruise on his ass worth sharing though, unfortunately. It'd be a great story.
"My hands aren't clammy!" Yoongi does snatch it back and pat it to his temple (about the only exposed skin he has to test it on) though. He grunts to himself as though assured that he's right, and then, "what were you planning on doing walking right on into the studio?"
"I didn't see you! I wasn't expecting you to be dressed like a burglar, hyung-nim!"
Yoongi gives Taehyung a once-over, eyes narrowed.
"Yeah, I can see that you made no effort to be inconspicuous at all." He sighs. "At least there's no light next to this bench so nobody will see that monstrosity of a shirt."
"Monstrosity?" Taehyung can't believe it! The make of his shirt was named one of the top brands to wear when you can't afford Gucci! Just because most shirts aren't splash printed in purple and gold doesn't make it bad or wrong.
"Anyway, keep it down. There might be windows between us and them but if we're-" Yoongi's tone makes it clear he means you're, "-too loud then they'll notice us even over the music and Hobi will realise something's up."
Taehyung nods silently in response, miming zipping his lips shut, locking them up tight and throwing away the key. Then he realises he wants to ask what he's missed so far, if anything, but he can't because his lips are sealed shut! He drops onto the grass, feeling around for the imaginary key.
"What are you..." Yoongi blinks as Taehyung gestures frantically to his closed mouth and then the grass, exaggerating a shrug to indicate to his hyung that he doesn't know where the key is! Yoongi visibly grimaces.
Then he reaches into his pocket and holds something out to Taehyung.
"You're lucky you have a hyung who always travels with a spare key," he mutters. Taehyung can't believe his hyung is playing along. His heart wants to literally soar out of his chest. He reaches out, eyes shining. Yoongi snatches his hand back at the last moment.
"Turn the volume down first, okay?" He reminds Taehyung softly but firmly. Taehyung nods. He mimics twisting a volume dial at the side of his head just for good measure. It seems to be good enough for Yoongi, who nods before holding his hand out again and opening his palm flat. And with that Taehyung can unlock!
"So," Taehyung whispers, leaning right into Yoongi's ear, "what's been happening?"
"Jimin's just been practicing earnestly so far," Yoongi informs him. "He did genuinely want to get some steps down. He said he'll shoot me a message when he's about to put the plan into action."
-
Jimin feels like he's been under a waterfall. A hot, sticky waterfall. In reality it's a layer of sweat, which might make his hair attractively damp and his skin glisten, but isn't the most comfortable thing. He turns off the track he's been practicing to and reaches for his towel. Hoseok claps from his seat on the floor, bouncing up immediately with a water bottle for Jimin to swig from.
"Yaaaaaay Jiminie!" He cheers. "Ah, our Jiminie is so talented! So clever! He can do magical things when he dances!"
Jimin allows himself to crack a smile; Hobi-hyung has always acted like his own personal cheering squad.
"Like you're not even better at that, hyung," he murmurs. Sometimes it seems like Hoseok doesn't have joints, the way he can swing his limbs so loosely and rotate his body parts. "I admire you a lot."
It's the way he says it; quietly, but not hushed with awe or embarrassment. Layered with meaning. Just thick and rich with that hinted attraction. Hoseok's eyes widen. Jimin steps further into his personal space.
"Thanks, Jiminie," he says after a brief cough. He seems to have recovered quickly. He's readily more affectionate than this usually, after all. In a physical manner. Jimin heaves a sigh.
"That's worn me out," he says, "I should rest, sit down." He grabs hold of Hoseok's shoulder, leaning his weight heavily as if he really does need the support in order to regain his breath. He draws close until their sides are pressed together.
Jimin allows himself to think of Yoongi watching somewhere nearby, unable to resist after Jimin had messaged him. Why would he want to be absent for the finale after all?
"Jimin," Hoseok says. He's been leaning for a long, silent moment.
"Mmmm?" Jimin asks, pretending he doesn't know the contact has gone beyond what was required. "I'm so hot from all that dancing, hyung." He sways into Hoseok a little, letting his breath puff out near Hoseok's face. "I'm hot. Ha. You think I'm hot, don't you hyung?"
Hoseok sniffs before answering.
"You've been drinking?" He asks. Jimin waves him off.
"Only a little!" He insists. And hey, that's not truly a lie is it. He did swallow a mouthful. That can be described as a 'little'. Not the little that someone tipsy would try to deny though. Jimin prods Hoseok's arm gently. "You didn't answer my question hyung. I said, you think I'm hot. Don't you?"
"Yeah, we need to cool you down."
"That's not what I meant," Jimin leans his weight into Hoseok again until they're against the wall, "and you know it!" He giggles. It's never been difficult for him to find things to laugh about, and this situation is no exception. It gives him the air of being happily intoxicated.
Hoseok is looking increasingly trapped. His eyes dart around the room as though sighting for a way to escape. Jimin goes for the kill.
"You want to kiss me, hyung?" He asks. He has to close his eyes as he leans in; he genuinely can't keep his cool if he has to look! All Hoseok can do is lift his chin out of the way with Jimin leaning too much of his body weight on Hoseok to allow him to slip free.
"You have a boyfriend, Jimin!"
"Mmmm, I guess?" Jimin replies. "You want me to call him? I'll break up with him for you, hyung."
-
"God damn," Yoongi says with an admiring whistle as he peers into the window. Once Jimin started crowding Hoseok up against the wall he'd convinced Taehyung to move closer, huddled up against the wall and cheeks to the window frame to look through the glass. "This is better than any of the shit they're putting on TV lately!" He glances round when there's no reply forthcoming from Taehyung, elbowing him gently in the stomach. "Hmm?"
"Ah," Taehyung gasps. "Sorry, hyung. I was just thinking."
Yoongi looks at him properly. Taehyung doesn't look anywhere near as gleeful about this as he is.
"You know it's all an act, right?" He reminds Taehyung. "Jimin doesn't like Hobi. Hobi doesn't like Jimin."
"Oh, I know," Taehyung nods. "It's not this. I mean, it's a little bit this, even though it doesn't mean anything, and a little bit Kookie being out on a stupid date-"
"Kookie?" Yoongi is utterly mystified now.
"Sorry," Taehyung mumbles, reaching for his phone, "don't worry. I'm gonna... I'm gonna do something. I've got to say something."

"My phone-!" Hoseok gasps, never more thankful for anything in his entire life when it begins to buzz with the telltale sound of a message.
"Ignore it," Jimin replies. He widens his eyes beseechingly. Nobody can resist those big, innocent eyes. Full of hope and dreams and Park Jimin sweetness and kindness.
Hoseok obviously knows that because he shuts his eyes! He's known Jimin for too long.
Although, when the phone keeps buzzing it kind of puts Jimin off too. It must've been at least ten times in a row. He leans back. Hoseok takes advantage and slips away, scrambling to check his phone.
There's silence. And silence. Jimin blinks.
"Hyung?" He ventures carefully. Hoseok is staring at his phone and not moving a muscle. It's like he might not even be breathing. "Hyung, what-?"
It's the act of reaching out towards him that has Hoseok jolting back to life and clutching his phone to his chest protectively.
"I have to go!" He announces. How the tables turn. Except something about this doesn't make Jimin feel victorious. He never got Hoseok to admit what he knows.
"What is it?"
"I don't know," Hoseok replies. "I mean. I know what it is, I just. I don't know what I'm gonna. Do about it."

Chapter 22
Notes:
MAD PROPTS TO THOSE FIC WRITERS WHO CAN UPDATE TO A SCHEDULE. I got a second job and did not have a single day off for two weeks until yesterday. lolsob. It'll calm down from now on~
For now though... this is it! The end! The final chapter! There will be a sequel, and there will probably be some (SMUTTY) spin off one-shot fics based on sexy encounters hinted at throughout this fic: please feel free to make requests for specific scenes you'd like to see!
I still can't believe I made so many words come out, that so many people have read, kudosed, commented, been so overall sweet and lovely and supportive and enjoyed this so much! I'VE FINISHED A LENGTHY (FOR ME) THING; this is a bigbig accomplishment for me! I owe it to all of you for encouraging me so much. I really hope that you're satisfied by the twists and turns, and the fun and drama, and that this wraps up in a way that makes it feel complete as an arc but leaves the door open to more from this universe. I love you guys <3
Chapter Text
-
When Jimin makes his way around the side of the building, (rushes, really; kind of sprints) he finds Yoongi and Taehyung both crouched on the ground - Yoongi balancing on the balls of his feet with Taehyung's hand clasped in his, and Taehyung leaning heavily against the brick wall, quiet sobs escaping him.
"Taetae!" Jimin flings himself at Taehyung instantly, wrapping arms around him and holding him tight. Taehyung is drawn taut and tense, so Jimin just squeezes until his solid presence allows Taehyung to go limp in his arms, sagging into his hold and accepting his support.
"Hey, come on, it's okay, confessing is a good thing!" Jimin coos gently. "Hobi-hyung was shocked, but I don't think he's going to be mad at you, like at all. I think he ran out of here to go find you." Shame that he went in the exact opposite direction to where they all are now. Or maybe it's a good thing considering the state Taehyung is in.
"I'm sorry!" Taehyung gasps out between shuddering breaths, "I ruined your plan! I just couldn't take it anymore; Jungkookie knowing how I feel, but us not ready to move forward, Hobi-hyung not knowing how I feel, and the imbalance of it all! And now I've messed up yours and Yoongi-hyung's plan-"
"Taetae, it doesn't even matter!" Jimin replies instantly. Yoongi nods his agreement, cupping Taehyung's hand into both of his instead of just one. "We were just getting petty revenge, I don't care and neither does Yoongi! We care about you being okay."
"I'm okay," Taehyung says with a sniffle. "I'm sor-"
"Nope!" Jimin says, shushing him with a finger pressed firmly to his lips. "Apologies are from now on banned!" He gives Taehyung a firm pat on the back. "Come on, up you get. We're going back to Yoongi's dorm. If we go to ours Hobi-hyung might turn up, and I don't think you're actually ready for that right now."
"You gotta look hot when you next see him," Yoongi murmurs, gently enough that Taehyung could ignore it if he wasn't in a laughing mood. He does manage a valiant smile though, allowing Jimin and Yoongi to help him to his feet.
-
"I know it sucks," Jimin says, handing Taehyung a mug of hot green tea and tucking a blanket tightly around him like a cocoon where he sits on the far left side of Yoongi's bed. "You've got all these feelings balled up inside and you've had no real way to express them, and now you've kind of bubbled over, all Volcano Taehyung!"
Taehyung sniffs hard and nods. He's determined not to cry again! Jimin and Yoongi-hyung had helped him back to the dorms and then Jimin had washed his face and stripped him down to his t-shirt and boxers, made him eat a snack and now he's somehow all ready for bed. He does feel completely exhausted if he's honest.
"I hope getting it out helped," Jimin says finally, softly. "We want you to rest, so I'm gonna leave you alone. But Yoongi and I are gonna be right there on the couch if you need anything, okay?"
"Okay," Taehyung agrees with an emphatic nod. Jimin kisses him on the forehead and offers one last, lingering look that says, 'I'm just scrutinising your face to make sure what you said is okay really is okay,' before petting Taehyung's hair and going to curl up with Yoongi.
They don't look his way, probably to give the illusion of privacy, but Taehyung knows they're his lifeline if he needs anything, he only needs to say one word.
-
"Babe," Yoongi says during a lengthy and silent cuddle session on the sofa while they waited to see if Taehyung really had eased himself into sleep, "that Jungkook Tae mentioned, he's the kid Tae likes as well as Hobi, yeah?"
"Mmm," Jimin stretches, nodding against Yoongi's shirt before coming up for air from within the junction of his shoulder and neck. "He's our good friend."
"The fuckboy."
Jimin giggles. "Yeah," he agrees, "the fuckboy."
"Jeon Jungkook."
"Mmmhmmm," Jimin agrees again. "Oh hey wait, nobody mentioned his surname! Yoongi, do yo-"
Yoongi shushes Jimin and takes a long, hard look over at the bed for signs of alertness. Taehyung appears to be dead to the world for now, but Yoongi lowers his voice anyway just to be extra careful.
"This is something we might wanna keep on the quiet side for now. Though not a secret," Yoongi hastens to add quickly. "But, uh. Jungkook is the kid who was hitting on me from before."
"Oh?" Jimin doesn't really consider the full scope of that information at first. "Oh!" Gleefully he whispers, "you thought he was hot! Oh my god, Yoongi."
"Shut up!"
"No it's fine! Kookie wouldn't get so much game on campus if he wasn't hot! I can see that he's hot, too."
"Kookie," Yoongi mutters. "He's a total muscle pig and you guys call him after a baked good."
"You call yourself 'Suga'," Jimin points out like any dutifully annoying boyfriend would.
"There's something else you're not thinking about, Min."
"What?"
Yoongi takes a deep breath. "The day you told me your fuckboy friend had been turned down, that must have been me. Because that day Jungkook propositioned me and I told him I had a boyfriend. And you said he never gets turned down, so I really doubt it was anyone else. And then he ran into Tae's arms and got his dick sucked and now-" Yoongi jerks his head towards Taehyung's sleeping form. "Now this."
"Yoongi, it's not your fault!"
"I know," Yoongi says. "Taehyung and Jungkook made their own decisions. It just seems like it was all pretty tightly related."
Well, Jimin can't argue with that. He just nods solemnly.
"...Oh, for real?!" He mumbles suddenly. "Jungkook totally knew who you were before he started hitting on you too! I bet Hobi-hyung is behind that one too."
-
Of course, after falling asleep at somewhere before 9pm, Taehyung finds himself pinging wide awake in the early hours of the morning, Jimin alongside him, body turned away and spooning Yoongi's tightly balled up form.
He immediately reaches for his phone, allowing his fingers to empty the word vomit he can't say out loud right now onto the screen.

Yoongi holds his phone up a little so that Jimin can read the chat over his shoulder. Jimin offers a little nod of acknowledgement and turns over to press a kiss to Taehyung's temple.
"Taetae," he says gently into Taehyung's ear. "What are you planning to do today?"
Taehyung mumbles into his pillow and then yawns.
"Stay in bed and ignore the world?" He offers.
Well, they can't blame him for that. He dropped a bomb on Hoseok last night and he wants to let the dust settle before doing anything else that might set off a chain reaction.
"Okay," Jimin says. "But Yoongi-hyung and I have to get going. You call if you need me for anything though, okay?"
Taehyung's head is already buried back into the pilllow as they ease out of the bed. "Thanks, Minnie, love you."
"Love you too, take care of yourself."
-
Jimin knocks on Hoseok's dorm room door and waits, with Yoongi leant against the wall alongside the frame where he won't be noticed immediately, if at all. When Hoseok opens the door he looks just as shellshocked as Jimin had imagined he would.
"Hi?" Hoseok questions, as though not entirely sure that's how to greet somebody anymore. He wasn't expecting Jimin of all people after all; he sent the SOS message out to his group of mostly-hyung friends, not his dongsaeng ones. Jimin almost feels bad for him, being caught so unawares by Taehyung's feelings (though jeeze, Jimin had figured it out ages ago... but then he is Taehyung's bestfriendsoulmate and not everybody can be as in tune with Taehyung as he is), considering how much Hoseok and Taehyung have fake-flirted with one another over the years, but then he recalls that not only has Hoseok been pretending to have feelings for him in order to get Jimin to confess about Yoongi, he also set Jungkook on Yoongi to try and wear his hyung down too!
He has deserved all the taunting. To give up the chance to have one last little nudge is practically illegal.
"Hobi-hyung," Jimin says, stepping forward into the doorway and into Hoseok's personal space. He does notice Hoseok shuffling back ever so slightly. "About that breaking up with my boyfriend thing-"
"Oh shit," Hoseok says, clearly before he can stop his own lips moving, if the way he covers his mouth with his hand is any indication. "Jimin, I can't with this right now! Taehyung, and there's Jungkook, and Yoongi-hyung is-"
"AHA!" Yoongi yells, jumping with joy as he springs into the doorway, accidentally knocking into Jimin and making him chuckle as he shakes his head. So competitive!
"-About that," Jimin continues smoothly. "I wasn't ever going to. As if!"
"You lose, you lose, you goddamn lose!" Yoongi crows triumphantly. "You said my name to Jimin! You admitted it!"
Hoseok's eyes are so wide his eyeballs might actually fall out of his sockets. It takes him a moment, but he recovers fairly well.
"Y-you came here together!" He stammers. "You were about to reveal all to me anyway!"
"Nah, we were going to make you 'fess up first before I appeared," Yoongi insists.
"We took advantage of your delicate state," Jimin admits. "We're really sorry, hyung."
"Yeah," Yoongi is suddenly solemn as he gives one tiny nod of agreement. "You're a little shit and a real piece of work, but I'm here for you, Hobi."
At Hoseok's questioning look Jimin just shrugs. "I'm Taehyung's best friend, of course I know all about it."
Something that sounds suspiciously like a whimper sounds in the back of Hoseok's throat. He falls back to allow them both into his dorm room.
-
[group chat: min.y, kim.s, kim.n, jung.h ]
Suga: I'm with Hobi
Suga: Leave it to me for now.
NamTune: Okay hyung.
SeokDin: Thanks, Yoongi~
-
"So, you mentioned Jungkook," Jimin says as casually as he can manage once they've all sat down together. Yoongi has a box of tissues held out under Hoseok's nose; he gets emotional very easily, and already looks on the verge of tears. Whether those are stress-based, exhaustion-based, or just from being overwhelmed nobody can really be sure, even Hoseok himself. "Tae told me he confessed to you; what's it to do with Jungkook?"
"Tae also told me he has feelings for Jungkook, the same as he has for me," Hoseok says, plucking a tissue from the box and sniffing hard, eyes dry for now. "It doesn't surprise me that he likes Jungkook; it surprises me more that he has feelings for me! But-"
"Seriously?" Jimin asks. He shuts his mouth again after a look from Yoongi. "I mean, carry on." Hoseok hasn't been in a long-term relationship for quite a while now. Maybe he is finding it hard to believe someone could want to be with him permanently like that. Poor Hoseok-hyung, Jimin thinks, having such a low opinion of himself as that. Jimin pats his hand gently.
"But I also know Jungkook has been trying to change his ways lately, to see if he could be in a real relationship. And he's trying really hard! He wouldn't tell me who it was he liked, but I hope it's Tae now. It wouldn't be fair otherwise."
"Life isn't always fair," Yoongi says. "I'm the one who told Jungkook to make a change and see how he got on."
"Yeah," Hoseok manages a brave little smile, "I heard that from him directly. I'm not the favourite dongsaeng anymore."
"You're too disrespectful to be considered a dongsaeng," Yoongi snorts. "...But you are my best friend."
Of course those are the words that start Hoseok's waterworks off for real. Yoongi looks a little reluctant to have snot smeared anywhere near his skin but he does let Hoseok cling to him and make tear stains all over his t-shirt. Jimin wriggles himself closer until he can throw himself into the cuddlepile too.
"Hyung it's okay to cry!" He insists.
"Jimin, you're Tae's best friend. And we're both so close to Jungkook too. You would know; what do you think I should do?"
It's Jimin's turn to have eyes as wide as saucers. He opens and closes his mouth, at a loss for what to say. It's not up to him to decide!
Yoongi saves him.
"Hobi. Stop thinking about what would make everyone else happy and tell us what you want. How you feel."

[private chat: kim.t, jeon.j ]
Tae: So how was ur date last night?
JK: Oh it was pretty okay?
JK: Like, good
JK: Not with him especially, like no offense meant
JK: But I can kinda see the appeal of hanging out with someone in a friendlike way but also wanting to bang them
Tae: cool cool
Tae: cool cool cool
Tae: so last night I told Hobi-hyung I like him
Tae: and that I like you
JK: you what?
JK: wow
JK: what did hyung say?
Tae: nothing at first
Tae: then that he was really shocked by it all and needed to think
JK: nothing since?
Tae: nothing since
JK: uh
JK: it'll be okay
JK: it feels hella weird reassuring you about the other guy you like
JK: but ur both two of my best friends so
JK: i want u both to be super happy always
Tae: i won't be happy without u too
JK: well fuck
Tae: can we hang out? i just wanna see you
Tae: no hidden agenda i just need comfort and Jiminie has done so much for me since last night already i dont wanna ask him for even more right now
JK: yeah sure, of course, always
-
Hoseok hasn't said much since he was prompted to think about what would make him happy. Jimin understands, because they're both the type to put others first and please other people at the risk of hurting themselves emotionally. He doesn't push Hoseok to speak his thoughts out loud, and Yoongi never would anyway, because he's the type to think hard about what he wants to say before he opens his mouth.
"Come on," Yoongi says gruffly, pulling Hoseok to his feet when he and Jimin hear the faint rumbling from his stomach for the third time. "We're going to the canteen. Food."
"You can talk," Jimin murmurs in amusement, because neither he nor Yoongi have eaten yet this morning either. That just makes the trip more urgent and necessary! As they pile up their trays (as Jimin and Yoongi pile up Hoseok's tray and their own and Hoseok just plays out the motions of queuing) they hear voices behind them, something to be expected in a busy campus canteen. Until Jimin recognises Taehyung's voice.
Neither of them are ready for this, but fate doesn't care about things like that. Jimin elbows Yoongi hard, making him bitch under his breath until he sees where Jimin is staring. Taehyung is with Jungkook; they look hesitant to get too close to one another, dancing around like leaves caught in the wind, but there's a contentment to the two of them just being together again. Taehyung and Jungkook are PC game buddies, cuddlepile buddies, and goofy antic buddies, and they've both dealt with far more seriousness and angst lately than is good for them. Just being in the same place at the same time makes everything feel softer and cosier.
Hoseok probably doesn't miss that fact either. His eyes are soft when he looks at the maknaes together. He really loves them both so much, it's evident in his eyes. Enough to stand back and let them be together without protest.
Jimin wants to say something. Yoongi wants to say something. But what, and to who, and would it even change a thing?
"Hoseokie-hyung?" Taehyung asks tentatively into the dead silence. Hoseok lets out a shuddering breath.
"Tae," he breathes back. "Please don't ever be scared around me like this."
He opens his arms wide and Taehyung rushes into them, burying his face in the crook of Hoseok's neck as Hoseok shakes his head fondly and squeezes him.
"Jungkookie," he says, lifting one hand from Taehyung's back to beckon him over. "Don't be left out, get in here."
"They're going to be alright, aren't they?" Jimin asks Yoongi, slipping his hand into Yoongi's larger one until their fingers entwine gently.
"Yeah," Yoongi agrees. "However things work out they'll all survive."
It kind of reminds him of back when he and Jimin were in that awkward place between flirtatious friendship and paranoia that the other wouldn't want anything deeper or more, that they were both just messing around because it was fun to push one another's buttons. They made it and so will their friends.
They'll even be there to help them through it, because that's a thing they can do now.
-
"Hey!" Jin shouts across the canteen, waving a hand wildly in the air in Yoongi and Jimin's direction. He and Namjoon are sat at a mostly empty table together.
"Jin-hyung!" Jimin greets happily. Yoongi says the exact same words at the exact same time. They stare at one another.
"The same Jin-hyung," Yoongi mutters. "Where does this stop?"
"With me!" Namjoon squeaks hurriedly. "I never met Jimin in person before now!"
(And yeah, that part's true, and the anonymous texting Jimin thing is going with Kim Namjoon silently to his grave. He will live with the secret guilt forever and accept it as his due).
"You all knew though," Yoongi points out irritably, widening his unimpressed stare to include Hoseok, Taehyung and Jungkook as they all make their way over to the table easily too, just proving Yoongi's words true. "You're all jerks."
"You love us," Jin replies easily. "And now we will all be one massive group of jerks who all adore one another. Isn't that great?"
"Yeah, it is." Yoongi's voice is barely above a whisper. He can feel Jimin's fond gaze on him even though he refuses to lift his eyes at the moment. He pulls Jimin closer. "...And yeah, we do."
-
-
("Hyung, are we just going to forget getting revenge on Hobi-hyung for messing with us?"
"Of course not, babe. Just wait until all this stuff with Tae gets settled. We'll be ready. This just gives us more time to plot.")
