His lips taste like sugar. Hoseok doesn’t quite remember how he ended up here, the alcohol making his memory hazy. All Hoseok can recall in Yoongi’s cat like eyes peering daggers into his skin from across the club, and he couldn’t resist them. He couldn’t just say no. Now he’s here, in the stairwell of his own club, kissing Yoongi who tastes like sugar, with hands roaming each other’s bodies.
“This..”, Hoseok breathes tugging at the thick black choker around Yoongi’s neck, “I want it off.”“Oh really..?”Yoongi questions with a smirk.“Yes,”Hoseok replies peppering kissing across Yoongi’s jaw, Yoongi lifts his head to give him more access, “want to… want to mark you.”Yoongi swiftly pulls the choker from his neck, leaving exposed beautiful pale skin. He doesn’t know how he’s going to explain the marks to his friends tomorrow, and quite frankly he doesn’t care. The only thing Yoongi cares about is the way Hoseok's lips graze against the exposed skin and the way his hot breath makes him tremble. Hoseok kisses Yoongi’s neck once, then stops.Yoongi pouts, “What did you stop for?”Hoseok looks up to meet those irresistible cat eyes, “I don’t want to do this here” he says motioning around them. They were in a dark stairwell, Yoongi’s sweaty body pressed against a wall, Hoseok would rather lay Yoongi down and do this properly in order to elicit the best response.
He takes Yoongi by the wrist and leads him through the back way to the club’s private rooms. Being the owner of the club, Hoseok likes to keep a route for himself where he doesn’t have to push through sweaty dancing bodies to reach the rooms.Once they get into the room, Hoseok immediately closes the door and pushes Yoongi lightly onto the bed that’s there. Hoseok climbs on top of him, straddling his hips and starting to fumble with the buttons on Yoongi’s button up.“What are you doing now?”Yoongi asks with that same smirk from the stairwell.This time, Hoseok doesn’t respond. He just leans down and attaches his lips to Yoongi’s neck while unbuttoning Yoongi’s shirt.Once Hoseok was sure he left a mark on Yoongi’s neck, he started to kiss lower and lower, leaving a trail of kisses down Yoongi’s body. He wanted to kiss everywhere, mark every part of it. He revels in the pretty moans falling out of Yoongi’s mouth.
“Hoseok...ah Hoseok”
His name sounded beautiful rolling off of the elders tongue. Hoseok has never felt so possessive doing this before.
Just what has he gotten himself into?

----- CHAPTER BREAK -----

Hoseok doesn’t do relationships. He’s a young millionaire who owns the best night clubs across Seoul, Tokyo, various other cities across Asia and even a few in the United States. He just wants to have fun, like his best friend Namjoon always says ‘ you’re here for a good time, not a long time’. So when Hoseok finds himself settling down to cuddle Yoongi to sleep after giving him the best blowjob he’s sure Yoongi’s ever had, he questions himself. Hoseok doesn't normally stay the night in these rooms, but the security guard knows not to bother him if for some reason he did. Hoseok’s mind is too hazy from the wild orgasm and alcohol to even think about getting up, so he lets himself pass out with Yoongi in his arms.                        ______ Hoseok wakes up before Yoongi, and for a moment he’s disoriented and confused, but when he sees the sleeping boy next to him memories from the night before come flashing back. He wants to make sure the boy at least gets out of the club okay, so he doesn’t get up and leave, instead he stays tracing small circles on the small of the sleeping boys back.  Yoongi is awake, he feels the soft touch of Hoseok tracing circles on his back. He doesn’t want it to end quite yet, so he pretends to be sleeping. He isn’t able to stop a semi annoyed groan escaping his lips when Hoseok’s phone rings and he pulls his from Yoongi’s back. Hoseok smiles, “Looks like someone was awake this whole time hm?” he says before answering the phone. Yoongi’s face heats up, so he doesn’t turn to look at Hoseok. “Namjoon!” Hoseok says answering the phone. “Where are you Hobi?”Namjoon asks, “You didn’t come home last night.” Namjoon and Hoseok live together with Namjoon’s boyfriend Jin. Hoseok might not be a relationship guy, but he has way too big of a place to live alone. “Oh...I...uh…”Hoseok stutters stealing a glance at Yoongi next to him, “I got caught up with something..” “By something do you mean someone?” Hoseok can practically feel Namjoon wiggling his eyebrows suggestively. “Must’ve been pretty good for you to stay.” “Oh shut up Joon!”Hoseok replies, “I’ll be home soon okay, I have to go.” Namjoon laughs, “Okay, we’ll have breakfast waiting.”And that’s the end of their conversation. Hoseok sighs and sets his phone down, pulling a cigarette from the pocket of his discarded pants and lighting it. “That’ll kill you, you know”Yoongi says turning to face Hoseok who is now sitting up. Hoseok ignores him, “We should get you home, should I call a cab or did you drive?” “I uh I drove, I can get home myself..”Yoongi says pulling himself up and getting dressed. Hoseok just stays put and takes another drag of his cigarette as Yoongi walks towards the door. He steals one last glance at Hoseok who busys himself on his phone, not bothering to say a word and Yoongi’s gone.

----- CHAPTER BREAK -----

Must’ve been pretty good for you to stay.

Yoongi thinks about this one sentence he overheard. He doesn’t know why he’s surprised, or why he feels hurt, but he is and he does. Hoseok didn’t say a word to him as he left. Not one. Contrary to last night when he was saying lots of words to Yoongi...lots. Just thinking about it makes him shiver.
 
Yoongi likes cuddles. He likes soft good morning kisses, hand holding, cute text messages and everything in between. Yoongi doesn’t do one night stands. He can tell Hoseok is the complete opposite, seeing as he didn’t even bother to ask for Yoongi’s number despite the fact that he was sucking his dick and saying dirty little things to him not even 24 hours ago.
 
Yoongi wants to see Hoseok again. He wants to feel his skin against his. He wants to kiss him. Wants to get to know him. Yoongi wants to see Hoseok again.
 
______
 
Hoseok wants to see Yoongi again. He doesn’t know why, but he does. He wants to hear Yoongi say his name again, he wants to feel Yoongi’s hands again. Hoseok wants to see Yoongi again.
 
Hoseok likes fun. He like quickies in the stairwell, dirty dancing with boys he’ll never see again, and one night stands across the globe. He can tell Yoongi is the complete opposite, seeing as he seemed hurt when all Hoseok didn’t even bother to say anything when Yoongi went to leave.
 
“Hoseok...earth to Hoseok!!”he hears Jin call from across the table, snapping him out of his thoughts.
 
“Huh?”
 
“You’re not eating Hobi,”Namjoon says.
 
“No, I was thinking.”
 
“About the guy you were with last night? Does Hoseok,

the Hoseok

have a crush?”Seokjin teases.
 
“He seems needy, I don’t do needy. Needy leads to relationships, I don’t do those either.”Hoseok replies bluntly.
 
“But you’re thinking about him?”Namjoon pries.
 
“Aish what is this, an interrogation?”
 
“All were saying Hoseok,”Seokjin starts, “is maybe it’s time you start letting yourself feel again.”
 
Hoseok just shrugs and goes back to distracting himself with the food in front of him. He knows Seokjin and Namjoon are right, he just doesn’t want them to be.

----- CHAPTER BREAK -----

Yoongi doesn’t know how, but that night he finds himself back at the club he met Hoseok at. He watches as his best friend Jimin dances with some random stranger on the dance floor, he admires the blonde boy’s confidence and wish he had it.

He sat there, toying with his drink, when suddenly he felt a pair of eyes on him. He doesn’t know how he knows, but he just does. Yoongi looks to his left and is met with Hoseok’s dark chocolate eyes, they looked hungry and intimidating.
 
Hoseok held contact with Yoongi cat eyes and beckoned him over. Yoongi listened, taking a seat on the stool next to Hoseok. He could smell Hoseok’s cologne, and it was way more intoxicating than the alcohol sitting in front of him. Hoseok places his hand on Yoongi’s though and starts to slowly inch it upwards, Yoongi stops him.
 
“No,”he says, “I want to get to know you first.”
 
Hoseok snorts, “What?”
 
“You heard me.”
 
Hoseok gets up, and Yoongi thinks he’s about to leave, but instead he brings himself around the counter and starts to mix a drink.
 
“What do you want to know?”Hoseok asks, keeping his eyes trained on the drink he’s currently making.
 
“Well first, why are you back there making your own drink like you own the place?”
 
Hoseok shrugs,“Because I do.”
 
Yoongi has to stop his jaw from dropping, “What?”
 
“Yeah, I own this one and a bunch of others all over the place.” Hoseok says that like it’s nothing.
 
Yoongi has gotten himself involved with a

rich

kid. He had no doubt that Hoseok was a multimillionaire with a beautiful skyline penthouse which seemed intimidating to Yoongi who was still in university.
 
“You know what, let’s make this interesting,”Hoseok says jolting Yoongi from his thoughts.
 
“Hm? How?”
 
Hoseok sits back down next to him with two shot glasses and a full bottle of tequila. “Everytime we answer a question, we take a shot.”
 
Yoongi did nothing but raise an eyebrow at him.
 
“Come on, it’ll be fun,”Hoseok pouts, “here I’ll start, ask me something.”
 
Yoongi caved, “Okay um, what do you love? What are you passionate about?”
 
“Easy, dancing.”He answers and takes a shot. “Your turn Yoongi.”
 
This probably wasn’t the best idea, but who was Yoongi to care.
 
                   _______

Yoongi was is close that Hoseok can feel his hot breath against his skin. He wants to take him home, Namjoon and Seokjin we’re out tonight and he wanted to take

Yoongi home and make him lose his mind.

They were both properly intoxicated. Drunk, but not to the point where they couldn’t make conscious decisions.
 
Hoseok let his lips tease Yoongi, but instead of kissing him he moved to whisper in his ear.
 
“I want to take you home,”Hoseok whispers. Yoongi shudders, and Hoseok lightly brushes his hand down Yoongi’s arm with a feather light touch, “I want to do things with you Yoongi, lots of things.”
 
Yoongi lets a quiet moan slip from his mouth when Hoseok brushes the soft spot under his jaw with his lips.
 
“Please Hoseok,”he almost whines, “

please

just get me fuckingout of here.”
 
And Hoseok did as he was told.

----- CHAPTER BREAK -----

“Should we say something?”Namjoon asks quietly. Him and Seokjin sat on the couch in the spacious living room looking at Hoseok practically devouring some stranger against their front door. His back was turned to them. “He must have thought we’d be out tonight,”Seokjin muses, “hm let’s not say anything. He never brings anyone home.” Hoseok must’ve hit a sweet spot on the stranger because the pretty boy let out a soft moan. Hoseok was being careful with him, which Namjoon knew was a bit out of character. “ w - want you,” the boy stumbles out, which Seokjin and Namjoon decided was their cue to slip back to their room undetected. “He better not be a screamer.”Namjoon mumbles as they slide out of sight. “You mean like you baby?”Seokjin replies earning him a smack to the arm. “Shut up!” “Make me.” Namjoon just rolls his eyes. ——— Yoongi has never been that loud during sex. With Hoseok, it was different and Hoseok liked that very much. He likes to hear the effect he has on other people, and he likes to watch too, which Yoongi is happy to oblige to. It starts out quiet, Hoseok sucking and nipping at the sweet stop under Yoongi’s jaw and by his earlobe while feeling around with his hands and earning low breathy moans. As things escalate, and they become more desperate, Yoongi gets louder. It’s only them, so Yoongi doesn’t bother to hide the pleasure he’s experiences, especially after he learns Hoseok loves it. He also loves to talk, he loves to whisper sweet things and it’s so fucking hot. Yoongi swears he could get off just by listening to him speak.  “H-hoseok…” Yoongi is hopelessly yelling now. Hoseok loves it, he loves how he’s watching Yoongi fall apart right in front of him. He loves how he can make Yoongi feel this way. …. “You’re beautiful, you know that?” Hoseok whispers as he draws tiny circles into Yoongi’s chest after they’ve cleaned themselves up. “You are too,”Yoongi replies, “definitely a dancer.” “Hm?” “You have a dancer’s body, lean yet muscular and flexible. My type, I love it.” Hoseok feels his cheeks get hot but Yoongi can’t tell in the dark. He decides to play it cool. “Your type huh..” “That’s what I said,”Yoongi replies nuzzling in closer to Hoseok, “what’s yours?” Hoseok doesn’t even take time to think before kissing the top of Yoongi’s head and replying, “You.” He doesn’t know what compels him to say it. He doesn’t even know why he’s being so sentimental with Yoongi. This boy was really doing something to him, and Hoseok didn’t know how to feel about it. Yoongi giggles against Hoseok’s chest, “Cute.” Hoseok doesn’t know how long they stay awake together, him softly tracing lines on Yoongi’s chest, but eventually they fall asleep soaking in each other’s warmth. _____ The next morning, when Hoseok walks into the kitchen and is greeted by Seokjin and Namjoon, he feels his face go completely pale. They weren’t supposed to be here. Why are they here ? Hoseok doesn’t know what to do, so he decides to play it cool, even though his lips are still a little red and swollen from a heated makeout session that took place not even 5 minutes ago. Hoseok poured himself a cup of coffee and seated himself at the island. “I was right,”Namjoon says to Seokjin, “he was a screamer.” Hoseok almost chokes on his coffee, “W-What are you talking about?” Smooth Hoseok , he thinks to himself, smooth.  “Oh come on Hobi, this is a beautiful place but the walls aren’t exactly thick.”Namjoon answers.Hoseok put his head in his hands, “Oh god.” “Who is he?”Seokjin asks. “Just some guy I met at one of the clubs I opened recently,”Hoseok replies, “no big deal.” “Actually, it is a big deal,”Namjoon interjects, “you brought him home, you never bring anyone home.” Hoseok shrugs, “Yeah because I don’t do the whole morning after and cuddle through the night thing.” “But you do with him,”Jin points out. Hoseok goes to protest but is interrupted by the sound of Yoongi’s voice. “Hoseok,”he calls, “Seok-ah do you know where I put my- oh”  Yoongi freezes at the sight of Seokjin and Namjoon. He’s wearing the hoodie Hoseok left out for him and his tight black jeans from before. He drowns in Hoseok’s hoodie, it’s...cute. Yoongi’s face flushes as he remembers the night before. Were they there...the whole time? “Yoongi, these are my roommates, Seokjin and Namjoon.” Hoseok says introducing them, “I didn’t realize they’d be here.” “Nice to uh meet you guys,”Yoongi says throwing a smile their way, “but Hoseok I’m going to be late for my first class and I can’t find my phone.” Hoseok takes the phone out of the pocket of his satin robe, “Right here.” “What were you doing with it?” “You’ll see.” Yoongi eyes him, “hmm okay, anyway I really have to leave for classes, ah Jimin is probably freaking right now.” Hoseok wanted to ask who Jimin was, but that was a question for another time. Instead, he leans down to place a sweet kiss on Yoongi’s lips, not too long and not too short. “Go baby, don’t want you to be late.”Hoseok says quietly. Yoongi turns red at the pet name, “Goodbye Seok-ah” Hoseok watches Yoongi leave a with a small smile on his face. Namjoon and Seokjin watch Hoseok in disbelief. This was not Hoseok. This was not Hoseok at all. Hoseok likes fun. He like quickies in the stairwell, dirty dancing with boys he’ll never see again, and one night stands across the globe. But Yoongi makes him feel different, makes him bubbly and warm inside. It’s scary. Yoongi, well the idea of Yoongi, is scary and Hoseok has no idea what to do about it.

----- CHAPTER BREAK -----

Yoongi barely made it to his first lecture on time. He was sliding into his seat between Jimin and Jungkook just as his professor started talking. Neither Jungkook or Jimin said anything to him until they were walking out of class. “So,”Jimin starts, “what happened to you last night?” “Oh he definitely got laid”Jungkook says before Yoongi can answer. “Kookie!”Yoongi yells while playfully hitting him on the arm. “Am I wrong?” Whose hoodie is that?” Yoongi stays silent. Just like that he’s flooded with all kinds of question from the two boys, it isn’t until they walk into their next lecture that he gets them to quiet down so he can get a word in. “He’s a guy I met at the club, turns out he owns it. He’s definitely rich because we went back to his place and it was absolutely beautiful and huge. His roommates probably heard me yelling his name last night which makes me never want to step foot near that place again. He’s really beautiful and sweet but I can tell he’s not the ‘relationship type’ so it’ll probably never go anywhere.”Yoongi explains. “You don’t know that Yoongi,”Jungkook says putting a reassuring hand on his shoulder. Yoongi just shrugs, and the conversation is over.                            ____ Yoongi finds Hoseok’s number in his phone about half way through the day. He can’t bring himself to text it though, no matter how much he wants to. He’s been thinking about Hoseok all day, but Yoongi doubted Hoseok was thinking about him. He didn’t want to be alone, so after classes he decided to accompany Jimin to the university dance studios, he always did that when he wanted company. Yoongi found it relaxing to do his work while watching Jimin dance. Jimin had his own studio, shared only with some mystery boy that used it during the day and was always cleared out before Jimin got there in the late afternoon. They didn’t know his face or his name, and it never concerned them. Today is different. When Jimin and Yoongi approach the studio, music can still be heard. “Hm I guess he’s finishing late today?”Jimin mumbles to himself. They open the door and enter just as the mystery boy is clicking off the music. Yoongi looks at the reflection in the mirror and the sudden realization of who it is makes his heart drop. There was a sweaty Hoseok drinking from a plastic water bottle, and Yoongi couldn’t help but think how hot he looked. Jimin clears his throat to make his presence known and Hoseok almost chokes on his water. “Oh my god, I’m so so sorry,”He starts scrambling to pick up his things, “I had a lot on my mind, I must’ve lost track of time!” “Don’t worry, it’s cool”Jimin replies setting his stuff down in the corner. Yoongi can’t move, he’s frozen. Hoseok finally looks up and makes eye contact and Yoongi almost melts into the floor. His dark eyes were intimidating, his soft heart shaped lips looked inviting. Yoongi wanted nothing more than to kiss him right then and there. “Yoongi…”Hoseok whispers, barely audible but enough so that Jimin and Yoongi both here. “H-hoseok” Jimin looks at them, and then it clicks. “Ah so you’re the Hoseok I heard quite a bit about this morning.”Yoongi turns red and shoots him a look. Hoseok shrugs nonchalantly, “I suppose.” Jimin looks at Yoongi, “He’s pretty, you did well Yoons.” Hoseok just laughs, it’s airy but there’s a sense of darkness to it. “Well um…” “Jimin.” “Right, well Jimin I’ll leave the studio to you. Sorry I ran late.” “No problem Hoseok, maybe I’ll be seeing you around.” Jimin wiggles his eyebrows suggestively. Hoseok chuckles, but doesn’t say anything. On his way out, he brushes against Yoongi who’s stills frozen in his spot. The sensation sends thousands of tingles up and down Yoongi’s spine. He wants Hoseok, god he wants him so bad. Hoseok stops next to him. “Someone’s excited to see me”He whispers, his hot breath fanning against Yoongi’s neck causing an involuntary shiver. Yoongi looks down, oh..oh. He’s half hard, just by seeing Hoseok sweaty in that see through white T-shirt. Hoseok twirls a strand of Yoongi’s hair and grazes his lips on Yoongi’s jaw. “Jung Hoseok, you are such a fucking tease.” Yoongi whispers through gritted teeth. “Oh? Am I?” He whispers, nipping at Yoongi’s earlobe and then placing small kisses down his neck. He involuntarily moves his neck to give Hoseok more access. Yoongi doesn’t know how Jimin isn’t seeing this, or maybe he is and he’s just ignoring them. Hoseok is latched onto Yoongi’s neck now, starting to create a mark, and Yoongi has to stifle a moan. “Hoseok…”Yoongi warns. “Hm?” Hoseok hums against his neck. “S-Seokah s-stop” Yoongi whines quietly. He spots Jimin, he’s stretching with his back turned to them. Hoseok pulls away, and looks at Yoongi who looks almost wrecked. “I drive you crazy, don’t I?” Yoongi snorts, “Yeah you wish.” Hoseok smiles, a devilish smile, “Maybe we’ll test that theory later.” Yoongi almost chokes, he can’t say anything before Hoseok is out the door.                        _____ Usually doing his work while Jimin was practicing his dance helped Yoongi focus. Today, no matter how hard he tried to write his paper on theories of personality for his psych 200 class, he couldn’t focus. There was too much pent up sexual frustration. Hoseok got under his skin, and the worst part is that he knows he gets under Yoongi’s skin. And Hoseok loves it. Yoongi rubbed at his neck, he could still feel Hoseok’s lips there. He stares at his phone, contemplating whether or not to text Hoseok. No. No he wouldn’t do that, he wasn’t going to look so weak. He throws his head back with an exasperated sigh and shuts his laptop, unable to try and concentrate any longer. Jimin comes over and sits himself down, “Everything okay?” Yoongi sighs, “I can’t concentrate on this stupid paper.” “How about you take a break and we go get something to eat, yeah?” Yoongi nods, “Yeah, that sounds good.” Jimin was Yoongi’s, platonic, soulmate and he always knew what he needed. Right now, Yoongi needed a distraction. Anything to get his mind of Hoseok and his stupid pretty face.

----- CHAPTER BREAK -----

Hoseok wants to spoil the boy. He wants to shower Yoongi in Chanel, Gucci, Versace, whatever he wants Hoseok wants to give. He had a lot of money and it was boring not having anyone to spend it on. It was as he was thinking of this that he got a text from Yoongi.
 
It read: I want to see you.
 
Hoseok looked at his bedside clock, it read 12:30am.
 
Hoseok: why are you awake?
 
Yoongi: got a stupid psych paper due soon
 
Hoseok thinks carefully before typing his next reply, he’s feeling hot and bothered so he decides to play with Yoongi a bit.
 
Hoseok: maybe you should take a break…
 
Yoongi: i don’t know about that
 
Hoseok: what about now? [image sent]
 
Yoongi: oh my god Hoseok
 
Hoseok: are you touching yourself?
 
Yoongi: yes
 
Hoseok thinks carefully again, his thumb hovering over the FaceTime button. It takes him a moment before Hoseok finally decides to call him.
 
“Show me”he says as soon as Yoongi picks up.  Yoongi doesn’t question it, just points the camera to his hand in his boxers and brings it back to his face.
 
“I t-told you,”Yoongi stumbled out. His face is red, his hair a little damp against his forehead, he looked beautiful in the dim light.
 
“Keep going,”Hoseok says, “stroke yourself and think of me.”
 
Yoongi does as he’s told, sweet moans stumbling out of his mouth. His eyes are squeezed shut, and Hoseok can tell his in a state of immense pleasure.
 
“S-Seok” Yoongi breathes and Hoseok can tell he’s on the edge.
 
“Now stop.”Hoseok says.
 
“What?”
 
“You heard me. And show me.”
 
Yoongi panned the camera down once again to show that he no longer had his hand anywhere near his dick.
 
“Are you going to let me come?”Yoongi huffs.
 
Hoseok smiles, a devilish smile, “Nope.”
 
“You fucking sadist.”
 
“Hmm goodnight baby boy, dream of me.”
 
Before Yoongi can reply, Hoseok hangs up and goes to take care of his own problem in his pants.
 
___
 
Hoseok: come over
 
Yoongi:  i have a lot of work to do hobi
 
Hoseok: bring your laptop, do it here
 
Yoongi: you’ll distract me
 
Hoseok: i won't, i promise baby
 
Yoongi: fine. And that’s how Yoongi ended up on Hoseok’s couch that afternoon. He’s in a plain white T-shirt, black joggers and glasses. Hoseok sits, watching Yoongi concentrating on whatever he’s writing, his fingers flying across the keyboard.
 
“You’re staring,”Yoongi says not letting his eyes leave the screen.
 
Hoseok scoffs, “I’m not.”
 
“Aish Hoseok,” Yoongi says looking at him, “let go of your pride and just admit it.
 
He shrugs, “Fine, I was,”Hoseok admits, “it’s not my fault you look really hot when you focus.”
 
Yoongi rolls his eyes and goes back to his paper.
 
“What are you studying baby?”Hoseok asks not wanting to sit in silence.
 
Yoongi’s eyes stay fixed back on his screen and he keeps typing. “Okay first, don't call me baby when I’m trying to work, it turns me on. Two, I’m studying psychology and right now I’m trying to write a paper on stages of development.”
 
“Baby turns you on huh?” Hoseok moves closer and softly traces his index finger across Yoongi’s collar bone, and then wraps a piece of Yoongi’s hair around his finger, slightly tugging. “What about babyboy hm?”he asks a places a kiss on his jaw.
 
“Hobiii”Yoongi whines, “you promised you wouldn’t distract me! Now go get me coffee or something and stop trying to get in my pants.”
 
“If that is what Min Yoongi requests,”Hoseok replies, “I can go make a good and coffee run. What do you drink?”
 
“Iced Americano, with extra espresso please.”
 
“Done, I’ll be back soon.”
 
“You sure you don’t need me to come with you?”
 
“No no, you need to focus on your work remember? I’ll be fine, try not to miss me too much.” And with that, Hoseok is out the door.
 
Yoongi is left to work alone in the giant penthouse. Namjoon and Seokjin were out somewhere, so it was dead silent and Yoongi could hear the sound of him typing echo off the walls.
 
Yoongi takes a moment to look around him, he was sitting in the spacious living room on one of the leather couches with his feet propped up on the glass coffee table. If he looked straight ahead, there was a flat screen tv mounted to the wall and entertainment system, to either side of that were floor to ceiling windows overlooking the Seoul city. Behind him was the luxury kitchen with a marble top island with barstools and to the right was the dining area. The ceiling sported gorgeous chandelier lighting. This was the place of a wealthy man, a really really wealthy man.He started to wonder why Hoseok was bothering with him. Why didn’t he just screw him and leave? What could a man like Hoseok want with a struggling psychology major like Yoongi.  
 
Yoongi quickly pushes those thoughts out of his head and focused back on his paper. He was halfway through and he wants to finish relatively soon so he could focus more of his attention on Hoseok.
 
____
 
The caffeine and snacks are a lifesaver and Yoongi finishes his paper within the next hour. Hoseok finds himself relieved when Yoongi finally shuts the laptop and places it on the coffee table in front of them. Before Hoseok can say anything, Yoongi is straddling him and connecting their lips. Hoseok takes in the sugary taste of Yoongi’s lips.
 
“mm baby boy has some energy now”Hoseok whispers when they pull apart.
 
“It’s the espresso,”Yoongi smiles, kissing Hoseok once more. He goes to take his glasses off but is stopped.
 
“Leave them on,”Hoseok says, “they’re hot.”
 
Yoongi obeys and starts sucking a mark on Hoseok’s neck. He palms Hoseok’s growing erection through his jeans and Hoseok let’s put a stifled moan.
 
“Let’s take care of that, yeah?”Yoongi whispers into Hoseok’s ear.
 
“Feeling bossy hm?”
 
“Baby wants show you how good he can make you feel.”Yoongi doesn’t have to say anymore. Yoongi is in the middle of sucking Hoseok off, about to make him reach his orgasm when the door opens. “We’re home!”Namjoon sings loudly and Hoseok mumbles some profanities while quickly pulling his jeans up.
 
“Oh you have company,”Seokjin observes, “hope we weren’t interrupting anything.”
 
Yoongi runs a hand through his hair to tame it, “No not at all.”
 
“Yoongi hyung you should stay for dinner!”Namjoon suggests.
 
Yoongi smiles, “Sounds wonderful.”
 
With that Namjoon and Jin head into the kitchen and leave Hoseok and Yoongi alone.
 
Yoongi turns to Hoseok, “I guess now we’re even hm seokkie?”

----- CHAPTER BREAK -----

All throughout dinner, Hoseok seems jittery. Yoongi notices as Seokjin tries to keep a conversation going, Hoseok just gives short answers. He also keeps trying to touch Yoongi. A hand on the thigh, a nudge of the foot, a brush on the arm. Hoseok seems absolutely

starved

for contact and Yoongi thinks it’s kind of funny.
 
When Seokjin gives up trying to keep steady conversation, Yoongi ends up discussing university with Namjoon. They talk about his major, his classes and everything in between. Yoongi quickly learns how intelligent Namjoon is, and learns that he is a lawyer which Yoongi thinks totally fits him. Yoongi also learns that Seokjin and Namjoon have been in a long time committed relationship for three years, and they live with Hoseok because Hoseok doesn’t like to be alone. When Seokjin mentions that, he earns a glare from Hoseok and Yoongi has to stifle a laugh.
 
Yoongi enjoys getting to know Seokjin and Namjoon, they get along well, and they find that it’s easy to have a good flow of conversation. After dinner, Namjoon and Seokjin retreat to their bedroom and leave Hoseok to clean up because according to them it’s his turn.
 
Yoongi starts to collect plates and load them into the dishwasher when Hoseok stops him. “You don’t have to do that.” he says.
 
Yoongi shrugs, “I don’t mind.”
 
So Hoseok lets Yoongi help clean up, and maybe pays a little too much attention to the curve of Yoongi’s body and how he delicately bends down.
 
When they finish cleaning, Yoongi turns to him. “Hoseok you’ve been staring this

whole

time, I think you’re burning holes into my ass.”
 
“Well I can’t help that you’re beautiful babes,”he says, swiftly pulling Yoongi into his arms and kissing his lips.
 
Yoongi pulls away, “Nope, no no we are not doing this.”
 
Hoseok pouts, “Why?”
 
“Because I want to get to know you better,” Yoongi admits, “you’re not just a casual fuck for me. I don’t do that.”
 
“Um yeah..right of course,”Hoseok says shifting uncomfortably and putting some space between himself and Yoongi.
 
Yoongi sighs looking at the time, “It’s late, I should go anyway.”
 
“No, stay.”Hoseok says, “You can take the guest room.”
 
Yoongi shakes his head. He knows better. Hoseok won't be able to resist, and honestly either will he. So he makes up an excuse. “I have classes tomorrow and I have things I need from home.”
 
He doesn’t let himself kiss Hoseok before he leaves. If he did that, he definitely wouldn’t make it out the front door.
 
                             ____
 
“I’m telling you,”Yoongi argues, “he just wants to fuck me.” He’s with Jungkook and Jimin walking into their favorite café after classes and discussing the previous day’s events.
 
They take a seat in their usual booth, “Maybe you shouldn’t think so highly of yourself Yoongi.”Jungkook says bluntly.
 
“Yah! Don’t you think I actually

have

evidence Kook! He tried to get in my pants three times last night.”
 
The conversation takes a pause as the order drinks.
 
“Well you did let him edge you on facetime and you sucked his dick so..”Jimin points out.
 
“I- yeah- well when I told him that he wasn’t just a casual fuck for me he got all weird and uncomfy.”
 
Jungkook raises and eyebrow, “Uncomfy?”he questions.
 
Yoongi goes to answer but is cut off by someone walking in. That someone being Hoseok. Next to him is Namjoon and some blonde boy that was probably around Jungkook’s age.
 
“Oh

fuck

”Yoongi says under his breath and busying himself with the textbooks in from of him. Jimin and Jungkook look at each other confused , but before they can interject, Hoseok is in front of their table.
 
“Yoongi!”Hoseok says making Yoongi jump. God when did he become so jittery.
 
“Hoseok.”
 
“You going to introduce me to your friends?” Hoseok is wearing a cocky confident smile, Yoongi can’t tell if he hates it or if he thinks it’s hot. Maybe a little bit of both.
 
“R-right,” Yoongi mentally slaps himself for stuttering and letting down his guard. “This is Jimin and Jungkook.”
 
“Nice to meet you Hoseok.” Jimin says with a smile that looks strained.
 
“Yeah nice to meet you Hoseok,”Jungkook chimes in, “but I’m much more interested in your blonde friend over there.”
 
“Ah Taehyung, here”  he grabs a stray napkin a pulls a pen from his pocket, scribbling a number on it. “this is his number. Feel free to use it, he would like you i'm sure.”
 
Jungkook raises an eyebrow, “What makes you so sure?”
 
“Well I like to consider myself a pretty good judge of character, for example, I picked out Yoongi hyung here…”
 
Yoongi chokes on his drink, which apparently is the exact reaction Hoseok was hoping for because he smirks.
 
Placing a hand on Yoongi’s shoulder and lightly tracing circles into his collarbone he says, “Well I should get back to my friends, it was nice meeting you Jimin, Jungkook I hope you out that number to good use.” Then he whispers a “

Goodbye baby boy”

into Yoongi’s ear and just saunters away.
 
Yoongi just about

loses

it. Who does Hoseok think he is? Doing that to Yoongi in public and for what? Just fun?
 
“Y-Yoongi?”Jungkook asks, “hyung, you alright?”
 
Yoongi takes a breath and fakes a smile, “I’m just fine, anyway shouldn’t we get back to studying.”
 
Hoseok has the upper hand now. Perhaps he always did. The one thing Yoongi knows for sure is that Hoseok has him wrapped around his finger. Hoseok is trouble, and Yoongi is thriving for it.

----- CHAPTER BREAK -----

Hoseok may have had the upper hand a week ago, but now he’s not so sure. They’ve only texted occasionally. Besides that, Hoseok hasn’t seen Yoongi since their encounter at the café, where Hoseok

thought

he had established his dominance, his upper hand. Now one week later and Hoseok is left frustrated, more sexually frustrated than anything. He doesn’t want to make the first move, that will make him look weak, and well maybe he is, but no one has to know that. Yoongi

definitely

doesn’t have to know that.

What is Hoseok supposed to do though? Seriously, this is why he never sleeps with the same person twice. Yoongi is different, for whatever reason, and Hoseok hates it.
 
“Hobi! Just the man I wanted to speak to!”A piercing voice says ripping Hoseok from his thoughts. The voice belongs to Taehyung, he doesn’t live with Hoseok like Seokjin and Namjoon, but he knew he was allowed to walk in whenever he wanted. In fact, he has his own set of keys. Hoseok is starting to think maybe it was a mistake, but that’s probably just his frustration speaking.
 
Hoseok strains a smile, “And what about, Tae?”
 
“Funniest thing actually,” Taehyung starts, sitting next to Hoseok on the couch, ”last week, I get a text from a guy named Jungkook and he starts chatting me up. Happen to know anything about that?”
 
“Ah yes, Jungkook, one of Yoongi’s cute friends. He seemed like someone you would hit it off with, and he was particularly interested in you that day.”
 
“You know me so well hyung. He’s really sweet, we’ve already gone put a couple times.”
 
That’s when Hoseok gets the idea. Jungkook is close with Yoongi, which means he knows where Yoongi lives. Taehyung is getting close with Jungkook...and he felt creepy. Yet he can’t help it. Hoseok needs to get Yoongi’s attention back, he needs to get his little toy back. “So..Taehyung..my best friend who has keys to my place…”
 
“Oh god, what do you want?”
 
“Find out where Yoongi lives for me? Please?” Hoseok sounds like he’s begging and he inwardly cringes at that.
 
“Aish Hoseok fine, no need to beg.”
 
Hoseok smiles, he has a plan.
 
                          _____
 
It has taken

every single inch

of Yoongi’s being not to text Hoseok. Yoongi is needy by nature, he likes to have the attention of his partners (or potential partners). Hoseok hates that, even a blind man can see the type of person he is. So despite the fact that all Yoongi wants to do is desperately cling to Hoseok and never let go, he leaves it alone. It’s the hardest thing Yoongi has ever done. He wants to cuddle Hoseok, talk to Hoseok, be with Hoseok,

feel

Hoseok. But he can’t, not until Hoseok breaks and makes the first move which Yoongi was starting to think might never happen.
 
Yoongi’s been distracting himself with school and work at the studio. One day, exactly a week since the café,  Yoongi drags himself into his small apartment after a particularly long day mixing at the studio. He places his keys on the kitchen counter and notices something. It’s a gift bag, and shiny silver letters spell out “Chanel”. There’s a tag on the handle that reads

for my baby boy

. He pulls out several items that are probably worth more than his entire existence. There’s no doubt this is from Hoseok, and it’s the final straw. Yoongi finally gives in.
 
Despite the long day of work Yoongi had, he still somehow finds himself in his car on the way to Hoseok’s place. As soon as he found the gifts, he grabbed his keys and walked straight out the door with one thought in mind he

had

to see Hoseok again. It’s been too damn long, and so what if it shows his clingy side, Yoongi just doesn’t care anymore.
 
                      _____
 
Hoseok stares at his phone, a message typed out to Yoongi just waiting to be sent. He takes a drag of the cigarette in his hand, he thinks of what Yoongi told him that first morning

‘that’ll kill you, you know’.

He’s interrupted from his thoughts when he hears hurried knocking at his door. Hoseok gets up, annoyed, with cigarette still in hand.
 
“Yoongi?”Hoseok says shocked when he opens the door and is met by Yoongi’s catlike gaze.
 
“Seok, I..uh I” Yoongi is cut off by Hoseok pulling him inside, shutting the door and kissing his lips. Yoongi didn’t come here for this, but he can’t help but meet Hoseok’s desperation. He tastes like cigarette smoke and mint, and Yoongi found it absolutely

intoxicating.

He wants Hoseok, so badly, and as far as he can tell Hoseok wants him too.

So maybe, doing this, just

one

more time, wouldn’t hurt.

----- CHAPTER BREAK -----

It’s not that Yoongi regrets it, he doesn’t, but as he lays next to Hoseok who is smoking yet another cigarette, something feels off. Yoongi can’t exactly place it. This is entirely new territory for him and he doesn’t know what to do.

“You’re thinking.” Hoseok observes, not looking at him and choosing to take another drag of his cigarette instead.

Yoongi sighs, “It doesn’t matter.”

He stares at the ceiling, waiting for Hoseok to reply. The silence is heavy, and Yoongi just wants it to break. When Hoseok finally finishes and discards of the cigarette, he speaks. “Maybe it does matter,” he says.

Yoongi meets his eyes, “I meant it when I said you weren’t just sex and hooking up to me,”he pauses for a moment “but I can tell that’s not true for you.”

The words break Hoseok’s heart. He doesn't know what he feels for Yoongi, but he definitely feels

something

. “Yoongi I...I don’t do relationships.”

He has his reasons. He tells himself that they’re good reasons. There was a time when Hoseok was vulnerable, and did do relationships, but after what happened with his last long term commitment, he stopped. He changed, and it was for the better, that’s what Hoseok

told

himself anyway. But now Hoseok feels vulnerable again with Yoongi, and it was scary.

Yoongi turns on his side so he’s completely facing Hoseok now, “No one mentioned relationships seokkie. I barely know you.”

“Then what are you saying baby?”Hoseok asks, tracing his finger down his collarbone.

“I’m saying,”Yoongi starts, shrugging out of the touch, “I

want

to get to know you, and no more sex or hooking up or kissing. None of it.”

Hoseok pouts, “That’s not fair, we got to know each other at the bar. Remember our fun little tequila shot game?”

Yoongi rolls his eyes, “Hoseok we barely said anything before I was letting you feel me up.”

Hoseok sighs, “Fine. We’ll do this your way.”

“Oh and you’re taking the Chanel back. I don’t know how you found my place, but I’m not keeping it.”

Hoseok shakes his head, “Nope you’re keeping it and i'm not giving in on this one.”

Yoongi rolls his eyes. Hoseok was going to be difficult, really

really

difficult.

____

“We should do a double date!”Taehyung says clapping his hands together excitedly, like a child. Yoongi, Hoseok, Taehyung and Jungkook were all sat down at Hoseok’s dining table for dinner. Namjoon was having a late night at the office and Seokjin left to keep him company.

Hoseok groans, obviously not pleased by the idea of a double date.

“I don’t think Jungkook would be into that sort of thing,”Yoongi comments looking at Jungkook.

Jungkook shrugs, “If Tae wants to, then I don’t care.”

“We’re not dating.”Hoseok states bluntly while picking at his food. Yoongi’s heart hurts a little, but he’s right.

“You don’t have to be dating to go on a date,”Taehyung pouts, “besides how else are you guys going to get to know each other?”

“Oh I know Yoongi pretty well. For example, I know how he likes t-” Yoongi hits Hoseok on the arm and shoots him a look before he’s able to finish. Jungkook and Taehyung stifle laughs while Hoseok just gives an evil smirk.

“We’re in, double date it is!”Yoongi says and Hoseok’s smirk disappears, replaced by a frown and he returns to picking at the food in front of him. Yoongi considers this a victory.

___________

If you googled the definition of a tease, Jung Hoseok would be the first thing to come up. The double date activity of choice, much to Hoseok’s dismay, was dinner and cosmic bowling. Dinner was almost insufferable. Hoseok did everything in his power to rile Yoongi up, and the worst part was that it was

working

. Everytime Hoseok did something as little as brush up against him, Yoongi felt shivers threatening to travel through his spine. He wanted nothing more than to kiss Hoseok hard and feel him up right there in the middle of that restaurant. Yoongi didn’t let any of that show though, he refused to let Hoseok know he was getting to him.

Bowling was Yoongi’s chance to turn the tables. He recalled the night when he was helping Hoseok clean up and he couldn’t keep his eyes off Yoongi’s body as he did something so simple as bending down, and he used that to his advantage. He could feel Hoseok staring as he would go to bowl or retie his shoe, and he wasn’t exactly subtle about it.

“What the hell are you doing?” Hoseok asks making Yoongi jump. He’d excused himself to the bathroom, and didn’t notice Hoseok had followed him.

“What do you mean Hoseokkie?” Yoongi asks, deciding to play oblivious while fixing his hair that didn’t really need to be fixed.

Hoseok snakes his arms around Yoongi’s waist and puts his chin on his shoulder, “Don’t play dumb Yoongi,”he says with his breath fanning against Yoongi’s skin which almost earns a response from Yoongi.

Almost.

“You’re trying to get a reaction out of me.”

Yoongi smirks, “And it’s working isn’t it.”

“You wish.”

“Then why else would you corner me in the bathroom hm?”

“Touché.”

Hoseok then places his lips on Yoongi’s neck and it takes everything in his power to not instinctively adjust his position to give Hoseok more room to keep going. Instead, he wriggles free from Hoseok’s grasp.

“No no, we are not doing this, you remember what I said.”

Hoseok pouts, and Yoongi doesn’t give him time to say anything before he walks out of the door. This is a power game, and right now Yoongi is on top.

____

After the night had ended, Hoseok was left lying alone in the dark thinking. He can’t sleep, instead he’s focusing on how much he wanted to kiss Yoongi goodbye, but of course he wasn’t allowed.

He focused on the butterflies in his stomach, it’s an odd feeling, a feeling that hasn’t been present since Jaehyun.

Jaehyun was the one, or at least that’s what Hoseok had thought. Everything about him was perfect, and maybe that’s where he went wrong. Nonetheless, Jaehyun was Hoseok’s first and only long time committing relationships. From the moment they met, they were inseparable. Hoseok trusted Jaehyun, with everything, he saw Hoseok’s deepest darkest secrets. Jaehyun was a lot of Hoseok’s firsts too. Hoseok was hopelessly in love with him, so when Jaehyun got bored and decided to leave Hoseok was devastated. He thought Jaehyun loved him, but he laughed at Hoseok for even thinking he was in it for more than the sex. That’s when Hoseok decided he was done. It seemed that he was only good for being used, so from then on he let himself be used and he used other people.

Yoongi was supposed to be no different. He was just supposed to be another alcohol influenced hookup. Yet now, here Hoseok is thinking about the boy late at night. They’re stuck in some power struggle game because Hoseok doesn’t want to let his guard down, he wants to keep his fuckboy rich kid act up because that’s what he knows best.

He can pretend all he wants, but the truth is that Yoongi makes him feel how Jaehyun used to make him feel: giddy, happy, and those damn butterflies. And Hoseok is

terrified.

----- CHAPTER BREAK -----

“You’re hard.”
 
“W-what?”Hoseok says almost choking on the drink in his hand. Yoongi and Hoseok are sat on Hoseok’s couch, Yoongi working on school work and Hoseok dealing with some business stuff, but mostly watching Yoongi.
 
“You’re hard.” Yoongi repeats, keeping his eyes trained on the laptop screen in front of him.
 
“How do you even know that, you’re not looking at me.”
 
Keeping his eyes on the work in front of him, Yoongi takes one hand and nudges Hoseok’s laptop and then lightly grabs the bulge in his pants. Hoseok’s breath hitches and he has to stop a small sound from escaping his lips. Yoongi smirks and finally lets his eyes meet Hoseok’s, “You were saying…”
 
They have been playing this game with each other for a month now, there was so much sexual tension between them you could cut it with a knife. Yoongi decided he isn’t going to cave first, instead he’s going to drive Hoseok to beg for it. He thought it might be difficult, but judging by Hoseok’s terrible ability to hide his needy expression, it might be easier than he thought.
 
Hoseok leans in to kiss Yoongi, but he turns his head and moves back leaving Hoseok to almost fall. He whines quietly.
 
“Hm needy are we?”
 
Hoseok scoffs, “Me? Needy? Never.” Yoongi palms Hoseok’s bulge a little rougher this time, watching as his eyes close and he lets out a sigh.
 
“Yoongi…”Hoseok says quietly, sounding desperate.
 
“Tell me what you want Seok.”
 
Seok. That was it, that was enough to drive Hoseok over the edge. He only hears that nickname when they’re getting intimate, and he hasn’t heard it in a while so it drove him wild.
 
“You. I want you.”
 
Yoongi moves both of their laptops onto the coffee table and pulls himself into Hoseok’s lap, “Beg for it.”
 
Hoseok chuckles, not looking into Yoongi’s eyes, “I don’t beg.”
 
Yoongi guides Hoseok’s face up to look at him, Hoseok notes the dark lustful look in Yoongi’s eyes, it makes him gulp. Yoongi ghosts his lips over where he remembers Hoseok’s sensitive spot is on his neck, making his breath slightly heavier.
 
“God Yoongi who knew you were such a tease.” He tries to kiss Yoongi again, but is met with disappointment when Yoongi moves out of the way.
 
“

Yoongiiii”

Hoseok whines, almost sounding like a child.
 
“Beg for it.”he repeats.
 
Yoongi decides to be nice and give him some motivation by sucking and nipping at the sweet spot on Hoseok’s neck.
 
Sure enough, it’s what finally gets Hoseok to concede. “Y-Yoongi baby please. I want to feel your lips elsewhere.”
 
Yoongi finally gives in and gives Hoseok a wet rough kiss full of want and need, “Where?” he asks when they part. He gives Hoseok an evil smile, earning him an eye roll.
 
“On my dick Yoongi. My god, blow me or something

please.

Is that enough? Is that what you wanted to hear?”
 
“As you wish Seok, as you wish.”
 
Yoongi takes his time undressing Hoseok and kissing and feeling everywhere, letting his need grow stronger and more prominent. Yoongi loves seeing Hoseok helpless and desperate under him as they lay on the couch. Hoseok loves this new dominant side of Yoongi, it riles him up.

When Yoongi finally made it down to dragging his tongue across Hoseok’s length, it sent shivers through his body. He was almost sure he could come right then and there. Hoseok wrapped his hands in Yoongi’s hair and whispered sweet praises as he knew Yoongi liked. As the older took him in, it was getting harder and harder for Hoseok to keep himself together. He kept his eyes trained on Yoongi, and knowing the younger likes to watch, Yoongi put on quite a good show.
 
“Y-Yoongi…”Hoseok warned when he was on the edge, but Yoongi just kept going and swallowed every last bit while Hoseok rode out his orgasm.
 
Yoongi doesn’t exactly know where this puts his relationship with Hoseok now, but he tells himself they’ll talk about it once his own little problem in his pants is taken care of.
 
                         _____
 
Yoongi doesn’t know why he lets Hoseok carry him back to the bedroom, but he does. He also doesn’t know why he lets Hoseok undress him while leaving marks all over his neck, but he does. And now here he is, letting Hoseok give him the best handjob he’s pretty sure he’s ever had, while his lips explore Yoongi’s body. It’s hot, so damn hot, and Yoongi has his head thrown back while letting loud moans leave his lips because he knows Hoseok likes to hear just as much as he likes to watch.
 
“Fuck Seok-

ahh

im

so

close” Yoongi warns breathlessly.
 
Hoseok quickens his pace a little, “let it go babyboy.” His voice is dark and lustful and it’s enough to make Yoongi go over the edge, spilling into Hoseok’s hand.
 
He slips a finger into Yoongi’s mouth, and the two hold eye contact as he sucks on it before Hoseok comes down for a kiss. “mm I like the way you taste baby” he mumbles against Yoongi’s lips and Yoongi can’t help but deepen the kiss more. This wasn’t sex, but they

really

needed to talk after this.
                   ______ 
“Hoseokkie…”Yoongi says, propping himself up to the side on his elbow to look at Hoseok properly.

Hoseok only hums in response, it had been silent for a while and at some point during the silence Hoseok had taken out a cigarette and slowly started smoking it. Yoongi noticed it’s an anxious habit of his.

“We need to talk,”Yoongi says tracing small patterns on Hoseok’s bare chest.
 
“Why talk when we can do this instead?” Hoseok asks, leaning down and placing his lips on Yoongi’s. Yoongi almost give into the kiss, but his senses get the better of him and he pushes Hoseok away.
 
“I’m serious Hoseok.”  Hoseok sighs, laying back down to stare at the ceiling and taking another drag of his cigarette instead of saying anything.
 
“I want more…”Yoongi starts quietly, Hoseok doesn’t make eye contact or say anything at all. “I want a relationship with you.” By now Yoongi feels like he knows Hoseok enough. He knows all his little habits, like how he smokes when he’s anxious, taps his pen when he does work because he has a hard time sitting still, or how he loves dance more than anything in the world. At this point, Yoongi feels like he’s known Hoseok his whole life.
 
“You know how I feel about relationships Yoongi.” Hoseok says with yet another drag of his cigarette and no eye contact.
 
“I know, but...but don’t you think you could at least try. For me?” Yoongi knows how desperate he sounds, but he can’t bring himself to care.
 
Hoseok puts out his cigarette on the ashtray next to him on the nightstand and turns to face Yoongi. “Why do we need to put a label on things hm?”
 
Yoongi sighs, “Hoseok I know how you are without labels, it gives you the freedom to do what you want with other people and technically not be in the wrong and you take advantage of that. Don’t think I never saw the hickeys you’d try to cover up every now and then.” His voice sounds sad and Hoseok tries to search his eyes for some sort of expression, but their guarded.
 
Silence.
 
By now Hoseok knows all the small things about Yoongi. He knows that Yoongi likes his iced americanos black, he knows how how Yoongi always plays with the ends of his glasses when he tries to concentrate or how he can type a mile a minute, he knows Yoongi is excellent at sensing things without having to even look and see them. He knows his side passion for music. He feels like he’s known Yoongi his whole life.
 
“I’m scared.” Hoseok finally admits.
 
Yoongi smiles a bit, “You don’t have to be, because I’m right here and i'm not going anywhere.”
 
“I don’t deserve you.”
 
“You don’t get to make that decision Hoseokkie.”
 
“Okay then…”Hoseok says quietly, “I want to try. I want to try with you.”
 
Yoongi smiles and pulls Hoseok closer to kiss him softly. Hoseok is his, all his now and he couldn’t be happier.

----- CHAPTER BREAK -----

“Well looks like someone finally locked down infamous fuckboy Jung Hoseok!”Namjoon says after seeing Yoongi leaving.
 
“Oh shut up.” Hoseok feels off, he doesn’t know what it is, but something just feels odd.
 
“Hey, what’s wrong?”Namjoon asks when he notices his best friend’s off feeling.
 
Hoseok sits down on one of the barstools at the kitchen island while Namjoon starts to make tea, “I don’t know,” he answers, “something just doesn’t feel right.”
 
“You’re scared.” Hoseok just looks at him in disbelief, how did he know him better than Hoseok knew himself?
 
“I’m scared I’m going to mess up,”Hoseok admits after a long silence, “and I’m scared he’ll be just like Jaehyun.”
 
Namjoon hums and acknowledgement while pouring two cups of tea and sliding one over to Hoseok. “Yoongi isn’t like Jaehyun.” Namjoon states.
 
“You don’t know that.”
 
“Maybe not for sure, but I have a pretty good feeling.”
 
Hoseok sighs and plays with the tea bag in his drink, “Okay, so day he’s not like Jaehyun-“
 
“He’s not.” Namjoon interrupts.
 
“Right. So Yoongi isn’t like Jaehyun. Why do I deserve him anyway? I’m only going to hurt him. I’m going to fuck up.”
 
“Don’t think that way Hoseok. You’ll just have to try. Commitment is work, things weren’t easy with Seokjin and I at first but we worked through it.”
 
“You’re right.”
 
And maybe Namjoon is right, maybe Hoseok will have to work a little harder than most, but he can still do it. He knows he feels something for Yoongi, so that should be enough to work through the difficulties right?
 
                      _____
 
“I don’t trust him.” Jimin says bluntly, swirling around the ice in his soft drink. Yoongi, Jungkook, and Jimin are all day down at their normal corner booth at their favorite diner for dinner, and Yoongi just finished explaining today’s events. Taehyung is also there because him and Jungkook are practically inseparable now.
 
Yoongi frowns, “Why not?”
 
Jimin shrugs, “I don’t know, something doesn’t seem right. I know his type, and he settled down with you so quickly. Like how does one go from fucking around with random people every other night to being tied down by one person so quickly?” He casts Taehyung a sympathetic look, knowing his friendship with Hoseok, “Sorry Taehyungie, nothing against you.”
 
“No I get where you're coming from,”Taehyung answers thoughtfully, “but I think he’s being genuine. There’s things you don’t know about his past, things that...that caused his wild behavior, but Yoongi sparked something in Hoseok, something I haven’t seen in a long time.”
 
“If Tae trusts him, so do I.” Jungkook adds while rubbing subtle small circles on Taehyung's lower back. Yoongi admires the two, he hopes him and Hoseok can be that way one day.
 
“What happened?”Yoongi asks, “In the past I mean.”
 
“Ah that’s not for me to talk about, he’ll tell you though. It may take some time, but he will.”
 
Jimin sighs, “I just don’t want you getting hurt Yoongi.”
 
Yoongi takes Jimin’s hand in his across the table, “I know Jiminie, but you have to trust that I know what I’m doing.”
 
Jimin nods, “I trust you. Not him, but you.”
 
Yoongi smiles, it’s enough. Jimin is his soulmate, in the most platonic way possible, and he cares a lot about his thoughts and opinions. Yoongi himself is still a little guarded with Hoseok, unsure of how well this will work out, and Jimin only confirmed his belief that he should be careful. Still, Yoongi trusts Hoseok and he has faith that they will work out.
                          ____ 
“A business trip?” Yoongi asks. He’s sat in a coffee shop on campus with Hoseok between classes because Hoseok said he had something he needed to talk about.
 
Hoseok nods, “Yeah, there’s a couple problems with regarding the reopening of one of my clubs in Tokyo that I have to take care of.”
 
“Don’t you have people for that?”
 
“I do, but unfortunately they’re too incompetent to handle it themselves.” Hoseok says with a roll of his eyes.
 
Yoongi pouts and takes a sip of his americano, he hates that Hoseok has to leave when he just got him to himself. This might be Yoongi’s clingy nature showing through, he’s not completely sure, but he hopes Hoseok will ask him to come with.
 
“Hey don’t worry,”Hoseok says holding Yoongi’s hand, “it’ll only be three days, and then I’m all yours again.”
 
Yoongi nods, three days. Three days isn’t that much, he can handle three days. He can trust Hoseok to be gone for three days and not mess up. Yoongi will be okay without Hoseok for three days. Three. Days. That’s okay.

----- CHAPTER BREAK -----

Day 1

Tokyo is Hoseok’s favorite city, and the nightclub (The Dionysus) he has there is, in his opinion, the best one he owns. Being in this area usually always put Hoseok into a good mood, but as soon as he walks into the building he can tell it’s going to be a headache. The club was nowhere near ready to be reopened, half the tables weren’t installed, the private rooms were a mess, the bar was bare, the whole scene was a mess and it makes Hoseok’s blood boil. If there’s one thing he hates most, it’s messy business and delays.
 
Hoseok looks around, there’s no one to be seen.  “Hello? Who the fuck is running this shithole!?” He calls out. Everyone that knows him knows he gets short tempered when it comes to his business, and this is just the way to piss him off

fast.

“Ah well, that would be me.” A smooth voice Hoseok couldn’t forget anywhere says and makes Hoseok snap his head up from his phone where he was typing an angry email. His eyes go wide when he’s met with the tall, silver haired and dark eyed man with a sharp jaw and soft skin.
 
“Jaehyun.” Hoseok says like a statement rather than a question.  He hasn’t seen Jaehyun since he walked out of Hoseok’s life. Now with Jaehyun standing in front of him, dressed in a black mesh shirt with a fitted white T-shirt underneath, black denim jacket with black skinnies and a studded belt, Hoseok was feeling something. He doesn’t know what, but it’s there and he has to remind himself of Yoongi. Soft, adorable Yoongi who he had made a promise to.
 
“Hoseok baby! Nice to see you, it’s been awhile hm?”Jaehyun replies with the most annoying smile Hoseok has ever seen.
 
He sees red, “And what exactly are

you

doing

here

?”
 
“I’m managing the place when it opens! Isn’t that cool!”
 
At this point he’s just being condescending and cocky and Hoseok doesn’t like it one bit. “Well then, mind explaining why this place is a complete mess, and why I had to unexpectedly fly from Seoul to fix it before the opening that’s scheduled in three damn days?”
 
Jaehyun’s smile never falters, “Hobi honey, calm down you shouldn’t get yourself so worked up. How about we talk about it over a drink yeah?”
 
Before him brain can catch up and process everything that’s happening, Hoseok finds himself agreeing. He tells himself it’s because it’s the only way he’ll actually get any business conversation out of Jaehyun, there’s no other reason behind it.
 
“Perfect,”Jaehyun says with that annoying smile, “I know just the place.”
 
                      ____
 
“So, you have your drink, now care to tell me why my club looks like an absolute mess?” Hoseok asks once they’re seated in a back booth at the bar Jaehyun chose. He has to ignore the fact that Jaehyun chose the bar where they first met, and

their

booth to sit in. They used to come here all the time when they were in Tokyo, maybe Jaehyun didn’t even remember, but Hoseok did.
 
“Simple, no one was hired to do the work.” Jaehyun answers with a shrug.
 
Hoseok’s eyes go wide at that, “What? No one?”
 
“Mm-hm,” Jaehyun hums, “no dancers, no bartenders, no alcohol suppliers, no janitorial crew, no security. Just me.”
 
“You’re kidding.”
 
Jaehyun just shakes his head, “The hiring team must’ve skipped right over The Dionysus.” Hoseok goes to get up from the booth but a hand around his wrist stops him, “Where are you going?”
 
“To make a few very angry phone calls.”
 
“Now Hoseok, you never get anywhere when you’re pissed. If there’s one thing I remember about you, it’s that you’re never effective when you’re mad.” Hoseok just stands there and stares at Jaehyun, who is

he

to talk about how he

knows

Hoseok? “Come, sit please. Let’s talk about something else and get you another drink to calm you down. You can deal with business tomorrow.”
 
Again, Hoseok doesn’t think before agreeing. This might be a

really

bad idea.
 
                        ____
 
Why Jaehyun chose to reminisce in their past when he had been the one to leave Hoseok is something Hoseok couldn’t understand. However, after having one too many drinks due to the stress around The Dionysus, he couldn’t bring himself to care. Maybe that’s also how he found himself pressed up against the bathroom wall he was oh so familiar with, due to the fact that he had found himself in this same situation quite a few times during his relationship with Jaehyun. That particular situation being Hoseok pressed against the cold tile of the bathroom wall, with Jaehyun on his knees sucking him off. Hoseok was experiencing a whirlwind of emotions, all overpowered by the immense pleasure he was feeling while Jaehyun’s lips were wrapped around his dick. This was wrong,

so damn wrong

, but Hoseok couldn’t focus on that with all the alcohol in his system. He’ll regret this in the morning.
 
                       _____

“He hasn’t called.” Yoongi says staring at his phone.
 
“Maybe he just got busy.” Jimin tried to reason.
 
“He promised to call…” Yoongi’s voice is just above a whisper. His clingy nature was showing through again, but Yoongi couldn’t help it. He needs to be assured and reassured that people care about him, that’s just how he is. Hoseok had promised to call when he landed, to let Yoongi know that he had arrived in Tokyo safely. Yet he hadn’t called, not even texted to say he gotten busy right away. Their relationship wasn’t new, the

label

was new, but they’ve been rather close for a little over a month now so Yoongi was allowed to be this way, right? He was allowed to be sad Hoseok hadn’t called?

The sudden possibility crossed Yoongi’s mind that Hoseok was out getting drunk and screwing some random guy at a club, letting him leave marks all over his neck like Yoongi had seen before. No, he wouldn’t do that though. Not when he had seemed so sincere about trying to pursue a relationship with Yoongi, not after saying he wanted Yoongi. These thoughts were too exhausting for him, he just wanted to sleep and forget it all. But he couldn’t stop thinking. Hoseok wouldn’t do that, wouldn’t go screw with random guys after everything. Hoseok

wouldn’t do that,

right?
 
                  _________

Day 2

Hoseok woke up the next morning in an unfamiliar environment. It took a moment to remember he was in his hotel suite, in Tokyo, for business. Along with that, came the memories from last night and Jaehyun. Oh god Jaehyun. He then let his thoughts drift to Yoongi and his heart drops. His hands absentmindedly go to his neck, remembering Yoongi’s touch.

Hoseok and Yoongi laid on Hoseok’s couch, cuddling and watching some drama Hoseok had just randomly put on. At some point Yoongi thought Hoseok must’ve fallen asleep because the soft feeling of him combing his fingers through Yoongi’s hair disappeared. Yoongi looked up, seeing Hoseok’s eyes closed, his expression peaceful. He let his eyes trail down Hoseok’s face, to his neck where he saw a couple fading hickeys, and one still quite prominent one. He lifted his hand carefully to trace over the marks, his touch careful not to wake Hoseok.

Yoongi thought Hoseok was asleep then, but the younger boy was only drifting, awake enough to realize what Yoongi was doing. Yet he didn’t let him know, still acting like he was asleep. Hoseok didn’t really think of it much then, but now he realizes how hurt the poor boy must’ve been. How hurt would he be if he found out about this? Hopefully he’d never have to find out because he has no plan of telling Yoongi anything about it. After all, it would only hurt him so what was the point right?
 
                      _____
 
Hoseok spent the rest of that morning making phone calls to every part of the company, desperate to get The Dionysus stocked, cleaned and staffed. After all, the club was supposed to open tomorrow night but that couldn’t happen without any staff. Around early afternoon, Hoseok had finished all the necessary calls he had to make to get everything in check for the club opening. So that meant he had the rest of the day to himself, tomorrow he would go in and make the final checks for the opening and then fly back to Seoul, but today he had nothing left to do. Sighing, he picks up his phone and opens Yoongi’s contact deciding to text him.

Hey babyboy -Hoseok

_____

Hey babyboy - Hoseok

Excitement flutters in Yoongi’s heart when he sees the message. It’s not like he’s spent the whole day waiting to hear from Hoseok...well maybe he has but that's not the point. The point is, Hoseok finally contacted him and that made Yoongi really happy. He sat and stared at the message, not exactly sure what to say. Does he go straight for asking why Hoseok hasn’t called? After mulling it over in his mind for a couple minutes, he opts for a simple reply.

Hey seokkie -Yoongi

A reply follows almost instantly.

Sorry I didn’t call yesterday, I’ve been working almost nonstop since I landed -Hoseok

It’s okay I understand -Yoongi

Did you sleep okay, Have you eaten? -Yoongi

Yes baby, I have. Have you? -Hoseok

Yoongi smiles slightly, his chest feels warm at the thought of the younger boy caring about him.

Yes, don’t worry about me. -Yoongi

I’ll always worry about you -Hoseok

Hoseok cares, truly cares about Yoongi. Suddenly all the doubts he was having about Hoseok last night faded. Suddenly, Yoongi’s phone goes off indicating he has another text.

And don’t worry, I’ll make up for not calling when I get back. -Hoseok

Oh? How so, hm? -Yoongi

You’ll see baby -HoseokThank

----- CHAPTER BREAK -----

Day 3

Yoongi isn’t dense, he realized right after Hoseok’s last text yesterday that by “making up for not calling” he was referring to sex. He didn’t mind, but Yoongi has different plans for Hoseok, he wanted to be the one in control, not Hoseok. Yoongi wants to find all the little things that make Hoseok tick, and he planned on doing just that when Hoseok comes home tonight. He had been given permission to hang around at Hoseok’s place, so while Yoongi waited for him to return he got some university work out of the way. It was around nine at night when he finally hear the door opening.
 
“Hoseokkie?” Yoongi called out.
 
“Ah Yoongi! You’re still here!” Hoseok answers while walking into the kitchen where Yoongi was sat at the center island. He gets up and places himself in front of Hoseok, and instead of replying, he presses his lips against Hoseok.
 
The kiss turns eager quick until they both pull away for air, “Hm eager are we?” Hoseok asks with a smirk.
 
“You said you’d make up for not calling, and we both know what you meant by that so let’s skip the small talk.” Yoongi answers while starting to lead Hoseok back to the bedroom.
 
“You’re hot when you’re horny, you know that baby boy?”
 
“Mmm is that right” Yoongi replies between kisses.
 
Hoseok just nods and tries to lightly push Yoongi on to the bed but he stops Hoseok by grabbing onto his wrist.
 
“Tonight, I’m in control.” Yoongi says with a smirk when Hoseok gives him a questioning look.
 
“That’s cute”
 
“You said you wanted to make it up to me, so let me do what I want, that’s only fair hm?”
 
Hoseok lays himself down on the bed and leans himself on the headboard, “I’m all yours baby boy.”
 
Yoongi straddles Hoseok’s lap and places a soft kiss on his lips. He then takes Hoseok’s wrists in his hands and looks at them, “Can I tie you up?” He asks, making eye contact with Hoseok.
 
“Y-yes please.”
 
Yoongi smiles to himself, it’s not often he can get Hoseok to stumble over his words. “I want to test you tonight,” Yoongi starts while he ties Hoseok’s hands to the headboard, “do you have safe words?”
 
Hoseok raises an eyebrow, “No, I've never needed them.”
 
“Hm okay well how about this, we’ll use the traffic system: red for stop, yellow for pause and green for okay. If your mouth is occupied and you don’t like a way I touch you or something snap your fingers three times. Does that sound okay?”
 
Hoseok nods in agreement, and then pulls on the restraints to test them. Sure enough, he can’t move. “Min Yoongi what exactly are you planning to do to me?”
 
“I‘m going to fuck you senseless, until the only thing you can remember is my name.”
 
“Shit baby.” Hoseok breathes, but he can’t say anything else because Yoongi’s lips connect with his in a hungry kiss.
 
“I want to hear your pretty sounds,” Yoongi starts while kissing down Hoseok’s neck and unbuttoning his shirt, “and keep your eyes on me unless I tell you otherwise.”
 
“Someone has a little exhibitionism kink in the bedroom hm?”
 
Yoongi stops what he’s doing immediately and looks up at Hoseok, he caresses his jawline “Seok this cockiness isn’t going to work for me. You look at me when I tell you to, understood?” Truth be told though, Yoongi liked being watched by the person he was pleasuring and he didn’t

hate

the idea that Namjoon or Seokjin could walk in on them at any second, it’s exciting to him.
 
Hoseok couldn’t deny that he finds this dominant side of Yoongi hot as fuck and he’s ready to submit to his requests.
 
“Understood baby.”
 
Yoongi smirks devilishly, “Good.”
 
____
 
“Seokkie are you with me?”

When Yoongi said he was going to fuck Hoseok until he couldn’t remember his own name, Yoongi wasn’t kidding. In fact, he had managed to make Hoseok come

hard

three times, and right now Hoseok couldn't remember anything but Yoongi’s name. He was so blissed out, head in the clouds that he couldn’t even bring himself to reply.
 
“Seokkie, we have to clean you up.”
 
Hoseok groans, “I don’t want to move.”
 
“It’s better if we shower Hoseok, then we can cuddle all you want.”
 
“Whatever, let's make it quick.”
 
_____
 
Yoongi wakes up before Hoseok the next morning. He swears when he looks at his phone and realizes that if he doesn’t leave soon, he’ll be late for classes. Figuring Hoseok won’t mind, Yoongi pulls a hoodie from his closet and throws it over his head while collecting his phone and socks. He drowns in Hoseok’s hoodie, but Yoongi loves it.
 
When he walks out to the kitchen to grab his keys and laptop, he’s greeted by Namjoon and Seokjin.
 
“Ah Yoongi, leaving so soon?” Seokjin asks.
 
Yoongi nods, picking up his belongings “My classes start really soon.”
 
“Is Hoseok still sleeping?”Namjoon asks.
 
“Yes, I’ll leave him text to see when he wakes up.”
 
“Well it was nice seeing you Yoongi, i'm sure we’ll meet again soon.”  Seokjin says as Yoongi waves and leaves.
 
____
 
Hoseok wakes up the next morning cold. He slowly opens his eyes and sees that Yoongi is no longer beside him. Pouting, he brings himself to sit up and check for a text from Yoongi, sure enough there is one.

I had to leave early for university. Join me for lunch? -Yoongi

Hoseok smiles to himself,

Let me know when to meet you and I’ll be there -Hoseok

Actually, Hoseok hoped to get some dancing in at the studio today so he’d already be heading to campus it was perfect.

“Someone had fun last night.” Seokjin observes as Hoseok groggily walks into the kitchen.
 
“I don’t know what you’re talking about.”Hoseok replies, opening the fridge to search for food.
 
“

Ahh fuck babyboy, ah shit you’re so hot, yes hyung just like that!

” Namjoon mocks and Hoseok freezes. He feels his face heating up in embarrassment while he pulls fruit out of the fridge to eat and turns back to the two.
 
“I’m assuming he said he wanted to hear you and you definitely let him...and us...hear you” Seokjin replies with a giggle.
 
“Oh my

god

.” Hoseok groans.
 
“Hm did he feed into your bondage kink too, did you let him tie you up tight just the way you like it? Your wrists are all red.” Namjoon add with a smirk.
 
“Shut up my sex like is none of your business!”
 
“You sure make it our business.”
 
“Oh please like I haven’t heard you and Joon going at it a couple of times.”
 
Seokjin turns red at that and Hoseok just smiles.
 
“Plus,” Hoseok adds with a surge of confidence, “he wanted me loud because I’m almost positive he just

loves

the fact that one of you could come barging in at any moment to catch us in whatever obscene act we’re practicing at the moment.”
 
Both Namjoon and Seokjin choke over their words and Hoseok saunters out of the kitchen with a smirk, knowing he won this round.
 
____
 
“He’s

what

?” Jimin asks, annoyance laced through his voice which he tries to suppress but Yoongi still catches it.
 
“Joining us for lunch.”Yoongi shrugs.
 
“

Why

?”
 
Yoongi sighs and lifts his eyes from his laptop screen to meet Jimin’s, “Because I wanted to see him, he’d be on his way to campus anyways to use the practice room. Please be nice Jiminie, for me.”
 
“Fine, but only for you.”Jimin grumbles and Yoongi smiles.
 
It’s quiet for a while, Yoongi and Jimin both focusing on the work they need to get done while they have the time. They converse occasionally, asking each other questions from time to time but otherwise it’s quiet. Yoongi is in the middle of highlighting something in his textbook when he feels a hand on his shoulder and he practically jumps out of his seat.
 
“Hobi you scared me!”Yoongi pouts when he’s met with Hoseok’s eyes.
 
Hoseok pushes Yoongi’s hair out of his face, “m’sorry angel, didn’t mean to scare you.”
 
Yoongi smiles and for a moment, he just gets lost in Hoseok’s eyes and his touch on his cheek. That is until Jimin clears his throat to bring the two back into this world.
 
“Hello Jimin nice to see you”Hoseok says with a smile while he sits down.
 
Jimin offers a smile back but doesn’t say anything before going back to his books.
 
“Jungkook-ah usually joins us, but he’s out with Tae today.” Yoongi comments, trying to keep an awkward silence from settling over the three.
 
Hoseok hums, “Yeah, I caught them coming to my place on my way out.”
 
“Your place?”
 
“Mhm, Taehyung’s apartment is small and not in the best area of town. I let him keep a key to my place and he has a room there. Namjoon and I keep trying to convince him to ditch that place and stay with us but he refuses. He just hangs with his guys or us there occasionally.” Hoseok explains.
 
Jimin lets out a scoff at that, and Yoongi shoots a warning glance. Before Yoongi can say anything, Jimin is jumping in to join the conversation.
 
“What do you mean ‘his guys’?” Jimin asks setting his highlighter down and looking up from his textbook, “Because I don’t want players messing with my boy’s heart, i‘m sure you know the type.”
 
“

Jimin

” Yoongi warns.
 
Hoseok puts a comforting hand on Yoongi’s thigh and gives it a squeeze to let him know it’s alright. “That’s not what I meant. Tae’s not like that, he’s only been in a couple committed relationships because he’s always searching for someone whose right. You don’t have to worry about him Jimin-ah.”
 
“Do I have to worry about you?” Jimin asks, narrowing his eyes.
 
Hoseok clears his throat, “I like Yoongi a lot so...so no you don’t have to worry about me.” He answers, looking down at his lap.
 
_____
 
“Jimin

hates

me.” Hoseok says as he walks with Yoongi to the dance studio.
 
“No he doesn’t.”
 
Hoseok rolls his eyes, “Did you see what happened in there? The way he

looks

at me?”
 
“He’s just protective, he doesn’t want to see me get hurt.”
 
“I’m not going to hurt you, baby.” Hoseok says as they stop in front of the doors to the studio.
 
“And I know that, but he doesn’t. He’s wary, but Jimin will warm up to you I promise.”  Yoongi presses a chaste kiss to Hoseok’s lips, it’s quick but reassuring. “Give him time please Hobi, he’s really important to me.”
 
“Of course baby, anything for you” Hoseok replies, chasing Yoongi’s lips for another longer, softer kiss.
 
Yoongi pulls away with a sigh, “You're going to make me late for my next class.”
 
“You could skip,” Hoseok proposes, “stay with me.”
 
“Hmm I don't know Hobi…”
 
“Come on, Ive bet you’ve never skipped a class before, it’ll be fine just this once.”
 
“I guess I could just get the notes from Jimin” Yoongi says giving in.
 
“Good!” Hoseok says clapping his hands excitedly, “Come on then.”

Yoongi tries to focus on his Literature assignment as Hoseok dances in front of him, but he can’t. It’s not because of the loud music that echoes through the room, it’s Hoseok. The way his body moves is mesmerizing, and Yoongi can’t help himself from staring. At some point, Hoseok catches Yoongi’s eye in the mirror and keeps them locked on Yoongi as he finishes his

dreadfully

seductive routine. Hoseok doesn’t say anything as he wipes the sweat from his forehead with his shirt, exposing his toned stomach and beautiful honey skin. Then, he sits himself down to stretch, at this point Yoongi can’t take his eyes off him. Hoseok knows, of course he knows, he’s doing this to fuck with Yoongi. And it’s working, oh it is

so

working.
 
“You’re staring baby.” Hoseok observes as he finishes and turns to Yoongi.
 
Yoongi feels his cheeks heat up and he’s sure they’re turning bright red, “I-I no I’m not,” he lies.

Very convincing Yoongi, very convincing.

“Are you sure about that?”
 
“Yes, very sure.” Yoongi answers, pretending to busy himself with the forgotten assignment on his laptop.
 
Suddenly, his laptop is being removed from his lap and replaced by Hoseok. Hoseok is straddling him, caressing his face and Yoongi can feel his heart beat speed up 10x faster.
 
“So what did you think?”Hoseok asks, “Of the routine?”
 
Yoongi swallows a lump in his throat, “It was- it was good, you’re t-talented Hobi.”
 
Hoseok hums, but instead of replying, he just connects his lips with Yoongi’s. Yoongi sighs into the kiss, allowing Hoseok entrance to deepen the kiss and Yoongi just sits there, not being able to do much but take it. Hoseok rolls his hips in Yoongi’s lap, creating friction and Yoongi lets out an embarrassing whine. Hoseok’s hands travel underneath Yoongi’s shirt and explore his skin, causing him to get lost completely in Hoseok’s touch.
 
“Holy fuck guys, get a room.”, a voice says causing Yoongi to jump and push Hoseok off him.

Yoongi looks to see Jungkook and Jimin staring back at them, Taehyung is trailing in the back snickering, and Yoongi feels his cheeks turn a bright red.
 
“ ‘m sorry Jimin-ah, it seems like I’ve run over my time again.” Hoseok says with a smug smile. He gathers his stuff and places a kiss on Yoongi’s cheek before leaving. “I’m sure we’ll meet again, Jungkook-ah, Jimin-ah.”
 
_____
 
“You weren’t in class.” Jimin says as he begins to stretch.
 
“I skipped.” Yoongi replies bluntly.
 
“Skipped? You don’t skip.” Jungkook chimes in.
 
“Well I did, just this once. Besides, I can get the notes from one of you right?”
 
“You can get it from Jungkook, I’m not supporting you skipping class.” Jimin says.
 
Before Yoongi can protest, music is being turned on and Jimin and Jungkook start to dance. Yoongi sighs, letting his head rest against the wall. He was sure that Jimin would come around and warm up to Hoseok, but now he’s not so sure.

----- CHAPTER BREAK -----

“Why are you moping?” Namjoon asks when he walks into the apartment and sees Hoseok sitting at the dining table and furiously typing on his laptop.
 
Hoseok huffs, “Jimin hates me.” He answers, not looking up from his screen.
 
“Well last time I checked you’re dating Yoongi not Jimin.”
 
“Yes but it’d be nice for his soulmate to approve of me,” Hoseok responds, “besides, everyone likes me. So why not Jimin?”
 
Namjoon just laughs, causing Hoseok to finally look up from his laptop and throw a glare Namjoon’s way. “I’m serious joonie, what’s his problem with me?”
 
“Maybe you slept with him once during your playboy phase but you just don’t remember.”
 
Hoseok scoffs, “No way.”
 
“It was only a joke,” Namjoon replies with a shrug, “anyways, you should be more concerned about Yoongi and keeping a healthy relationship with him.
 
Hoseok hums in response, “Hm yeah I guess you’re right.” There’s  silence between the two for a few minutes, Namjoon setting his keys down and starting to make some dinner, and Hoseok back to busying himself by furiously typing away at his laptop again. However, Hoseok isn’t really focusing on his work, instead his mind drifts back to that night with Jaehyun in Japan….no

no he needs to forget

but for some reason he can’t. Guilt is something he has never felt after hooking up with someone, but this time was different. Hoseok’s mind couldn’t stop drifting to Yoongi, picturing his hurt face if he ever found out. 
 
“Now what is it?” Namjoon asks, suddenly ripping Hoseok out of his thoughts. 
 
“I…” Hoseok trails, contemplating whether or not he should tell him, well he needed to tell someone before he went absolutely insane, “Remember I went on that business trip to Japan recently.”
 
Namjoon quirks a brow in questioning, “Yeah…”
 
“Well when I got to the club, it was a mess and I was fuming. The only person there was Jaehyun....”
 
“

Jaehyun

...as in…” 
 
Hoseok hums and nods before Namjoon can finish, “Yes that Jaehyun. Anyways, I was fuming and I started yelling and he told me to calm down, that nothing ever gets solved when I’m upset and well he isn't wrong. So he invited me for drinks and for some reason I agreed, and then things...escalated from there.” He finished, practically whispering by the end.
 
“Hobi you...does Yoongi know?” Namjoon asks, looking in disbelief. 
 
“No, and I want to keep it that way. God I feel so guilty, I don’t ever want to hurt him.” 
 
Namjoon hums, “Hm well you shouldn’t slip up again at least.”

Hoseok just nods in return, he

definitely

wasn’t going to mess up again. 
 
                                                                                                                         *******
 
      It’s been a week since Yoongi has seen Hoseok, both of them being incredibly busy with their own lives, Yoongi with school and Hoseok with business. It was no secret that Hoseok worked almost 24/7, and Yoongi didn’t know how he felt about it. Yoongi missed Hoseok,

a lot,

and maybe it was his clingy side coming out but he couldn’t bring himself to care. Yoongi stared at his phone, contemplating whether or not to text the younger, certainly Hoseok would have texted if he wanted to see Yoongi right? Yoongi shook his head, maybe one day he’d stop being so insecure, but today was not that day. He continued to stare at his phone,

He’s probably busy, maybe he just doesn’t want to see you, mayb-

his thoughts were interrupted by the sound of his phone going off, signaling he had a text message. As if the universe was reading his mind, Yoongi checked and saw it was Hoseok.

Hey baby- Hoseok

Hey seokkie- Yoongi

What are you doing?- Hoseok

I just got home from classes

Yoongi pauses and then adds,

I miss you- Yoongi

I miss you too baby, Come over?- Hoseok.

Yoongi beams at the message, sure he had an essay to write but he wanted nothing more than to be engulfed in Hoseok’s warm embrace. After a few minutes of going back and forth, he tells Hoseok he’s on his way, shoves his laptop in his back and leaves his apartment. 
 
*******
 
    Hoseok is excited to see Yoongi, he has been swamped with work for the past week, which is nothing new but he was still tired and longing to see Yoongi. Odd, he thought, he’s never longed to see anyone but Yoongi seems to have that effect on him. Yoongi seems to have been making him feel a lot of things he’s never heard before, Hoseok couldn’t tell how he felt about it.  Before he can think about it anymore, his thoughts are interrupted by the sound of Yoongi’s voice by the door.

“Hobi?” Yoongi called out, and Hoseok immediately showed up in front of him. Wrapping his hands around Yoongi’s waist, he pulls Yoongi closer planting a soft, but slightly needy, kiss on the older’s lips. Yoongi sighs into the kiss, wanting nothing more than for Hoseok to continue, maybe even take him up against the wall right there...no

no

he could

not

let that happen. First of all, Hoseok had roommates, and second of all Yoongi had work to do. 
 
“Seok-ah '' Yoongi whines as Hoseok’s hands start to travel around Yoongi’s body, he comes off more needy than he wanted. “Seok-ah please” Yoongi breathes, “please not...not now”. 
 
With that Hoseok pauses, “Why not baby?” 
 
Yoongi gives an apologetic smile, “As much as I’d love to...to continue” he starts shyly, “I have a bit of schoolwork to do.”

Hoseok stares as Yoongi attentively types away at his laptop, his glasses cutely resting on the bridge of his nose. He wanted nothing more than to touch Yoongi, maybe tease him a bit, but he knew the older wouldn’t appreciate it. He couldn’t help but stare because of how adorable Yoongi looks in his oversized hoodie and glasses,

he can’t help but think how much he would love to fuc-

“You’re staring,” Yoongi states, his eyes never leaving his laptop screen, interrupting Hoseok’s thoughts. 
 
“Couldn’t help it baby, you look so adorable and I couldn’t stop thinking about all the thi-”
 
“Stop,” Yoongi interrupts, “stop right there or I swear I won’t ever get this done.” A rose tint paints Yonngi’s cheeks as he speaks, embarrassed by the confession. 
 
Hoseok just chuckles, opting to busy himself on his phone instead of continuing the conversation further, after all the quicker Yoongi finished the quicker Hoseok would be able to touch him.

It took one more hour until Yoongi was done. He took a breath, shut his laptop and placed it on the coffee table in front of him. He raises his eyes to look at Hoseok, unsurprised when he notices the younger is already staring. Yoongi doesn’t say anything, choosing to place himself on Hoseok’s lap instead, straddling him. 
 
“Done baby?” Hoseok asks, licking his lips. Yoongi follows the movement.

‘Y-yes”Yoongi responds quietly. 
 
  Nothing else is said, instead Hoseok connects his lips with Yoongi’s. The kiss gets heated quickly, Yoongi rolling his hips down and whining at the friction. He plays with the hem of Hoseok’s shirt, “Off please” he whines quietly. Hoseok complies, and Yoongi reaches to undo his trousers, but Hoseok grabs his hand to still the motion. 
 
“Not here,” Hoseok says with amusement in his eyes at how needy Yoongi was quickly becoming, “Namjoon and Jin will walk through that door at any time.” 
 
Yoongi says nothing, just blushes. Hoseok smirks, “You would love that though wouldn’t you angel? Look at you squirming in my lap, the thought of those two walking in and seeing you bounce on my dick turns you on doesn’t it

kitten

?” 
 
Yoongi just whines, and hides his face in the crook of Hoseok’s neck, too turned on to even process the new nickname Hoseok had just given him. “Seok-ah

please

” Yoongi begs, not quite sure what he’s begging for. However, Hoseok seems to get it because soon enough he’s carrying a

very hard

Yoongi to his bedroom. 
 
                                                                                                              *****
 
  “Will you stay?” Hoseok wonders as he cuddles Yoongi, both have washed up and Yoongi is exhausted after a very mind blowing orgasm. 
 
“Do you want me to?” Yoongi asks, lifting his head to look Hoseok in the eyes. 
 
“You're tired, I wouldn’t want you to drive tired.” Hoseok simply says avoiding the question. 
 
Yoongi hums, “Then I’ll stay”. He didn’t really need to be convinced to stay. He is tired, and Hoseok arms around him make him feel warm and safe, he wants to fall asleep this way. 
 
Hoseok places a kiss on Yoongi’s forehead, “Okay baby.”
 
“I'm tired” Yoongi mumbles, eyes fluttering shut.
 
“Then sleep baby, I’m here.”
 
And with that, Yoongi falls fast asleep safe in Hoseok’s arms. Hoseok watched the sleeping boy a bit, wondering for the thousandth time how he had ended up in the situation, if you would’ve told Hoseok a year ago this is where he’d be he would’ve laughed. There’s something about Yoongi...something that makes him feel alive again. The last thought that lingers in Hoseok’s mind before he drifts to sleep is that he wouldn't mind spending the rest of his life like this.

----- CHAPTER BREAK -----

Yoongi’s eyes flutter open as he feels the warm rays of sun peek through the curtains on Hoseok’s floor to ceiling windows. He brings his hands up to rub his eyes awake, and eventually he notices the coldness next to him that contrasts the warmth of the sun. Turning his head, he realizes Hoseok is no longer beside him and the realization makes Yoongi pout. 
 
“Hobi?” He calls out, but gets no answer.  He looks around and sees Hoseok hasn’t left a note, and picks up his phone with no messages. It’s then that he notices Hoseok’s phone lights up on the nightstand on the other side of the bed, but before curiosity can get the best of him, Hoseok appears in the room. His hair is wet, and he is only wrapped in a towel at the waist signaling he had just gotten out of the shower. Yoongi must’ve been too tired from waking up to notice the shower running in the bathroom across the room. 
 
“Good morning baby,” Hoseok says with a smile as he opens his dresser to pull out some clothes. Yoongi gulps, too mesmerized by Hoseok's beautiful body to process he should probably formulate some sort of reply. “Baby?” Hoseok questions, which snaps Yoongi out of his thoughts. 
 
“Yes h-hi, I mean good morning” Yoongi stumbles and Hoseok lets out a light laugh. Yoongi can’t help but notice how smooth and melodic his laugh really is. 
 
“Something got you a little distracted?” Hoseok asks as he finishes getting dressed. 
 
Yoongi watches as Hoseok buttons up his silky shirt, his eyes following the motion “No, no why would I be distracted.”
 
“Cute”. Yoongi is a horrible liar, Hoseok knows that already, he is terrible at concealing his emotions but Hoseok found that rather endearing. He leans down to plant a kiss on Yoongi’s lips, making Yoongi long forget about the message that was on Hoseok’s phone before he came in.

“Do you have classes today?” Hoseok asks when he pulls away, a little too soon if you ask Yoongi. 
 
“Yes, not until eleven though. Do you have to work long today?”
 
“I have some meetings to attend at the office this morning, I’ll use the afternoon for my usual practice time and then I have some things to do at home.”

Yoongi just nods in response. Hoseok works a lot, he does most of it from home but Yoongi was still concerned that maybe he worked just a little too much. Yoongi wasn’t going to say anything about it though. 
 
“Can I borrow some clothes?” Yoongi asks, changing the subject from work.
 
“My closet is all yours” Hoseok replies with a smile, “But I do have to get going, or I’ll be late. I’ll see you later yeah?”
 
Yoongi nods, “Mmhm go on Hobi.” and with that, Yoongi is left alone. 
 
******

By the time Yoongi finishes his last class, he is exhausted and wants nothing more than to go home and sleep. He sits in the dance studio with Jimin as he always does after classes, trying to focus on his reading but the tiredness is getting the best of him. With a sigh, he decides he needs a bit of caffeine to wake him up.
 
“Jiminie” Yoogi calls, getting Jimin’s attention.
 
The music pauses, “What’s up Yoongs?”
 
“I’m running out to grab an americano to keep me awake, need anything?”
 
Jimin shakes his head, “No thank you hyung.” Yoongi nods, stating he’ll be right back and leaves Jimin to get back to practicing. It was a Friday, so Yoongi knew they would be there for a few more hours because Jimin liked to practice longer on Fridays, especially now because he had to choreograph his own routine for an upcoming showcase in his department.

He decides to drop into their usual coffee shop because it is conveniently close to the dance studios. Being a regular all the barista has to do is ask if Yoongi will be having his usual iced americano, with a nod he pays and stands off to the side. Yoongi busies himself on his phone while he waits.

“Baby?” he hears from behind him, and jumps when he feels a hand on his lower back. 
 
Looking up, Yoongi is met with pretty brown eyes and heart shaped lips, “Hobi...you scared me. What are you doing here?” He notices Hoseok is still in his dance clothes, and raises a questioning eyebrow because he hadn’t seen Hoseok when he went to the studio with Jimin and they had already been there for quite a while. 
 
“I just got done with practice, I used a different studio today because I wanted a bit more time.” Hoseok answers, “What about you?”
 
“I’m with Jimin right now, he likes to practice later on Fridays and I’m doing work, but I’m tired so I decided to make a coffee run” Yoongi explains. 
 
Hoseok hums, “Well it’s a good thing I caught you here, I was about to text you about something. I have a club opening in Itaewon tomorrow night and I wanted to invite you to come. Namjoon and Seokjin will be there, I’m sure Taehyung will drag Jungkook along, and Jimin can come too.”
 
“Really?” Yoongi asks, he hasn’t been out in so long, “I’ll ask Jimin but I’ll definitely be there.”
 
Hoseok smiles, “Good,” he says and plants a kiss on Yoongi’s lips, “See you tomorrow baby.”
 
******

“I can't believe you talked me into this” Jimin grumbles as he fixes his hair. Yoongi and Jimin were getting ready for Hoseok’s club opening in Itaewon, Jimin making his distaste for Hosek evident.
 
“Oh please, like you weren’t

itching

to go out.” Jimin huffs and Yoongi knows he was right, “Anyways, how do I look?”
 
“Holy fuck Yoongs you look

hot

,” Jimin gasps and then adds, “Hoseok won’t be able to keep his hands off of you.”

Yoongi hits Jimin playfully, but he knows Jimin is probably right. He is dressed in tight back skinny jeans that leave

nothing

to the imagination, a loose silky white dress shirt tucked in, with a black bomber jacket layered over. To top it all off, Yoongi had put a glittery choker on that shined when it hit the light right. Yoongi smiled to himself, he knew how much Hoseok loved to see chokers on him.

When they got to the club it was about an hour before opening, so Yoongi was able to spot Hoseok and the rest of the group at a VIP booth in the back right away. Hoseok was dressed in a black loose and silky short sleeve button up (the top two buttons left undone to expose his chest only slightly) which was tucked into black trousers. His brown hair was styled perfectly messy.

He looks like a God

Yoongi thought as he sat down next to him, Jimin choosing a seat between Taehyung and Jungkook.

“You look good baby,” Hoseok whispered in Yoongi’s ear while playing with the choker slightly, sending chills down his spine. 
 
“T-thank you Seok,” Yoongi replied quietly, “you do too.” It was so unfair how Hoseok had already started to turn Yoongi on from just the close proximity.

The group continued to drink and talk for a long part of the night. Yoongi preferred to just observe the conversation, jumping in a few times when he felt like it. He took special notice of how Jimin, Jungkook and Taehyung seemed to be especially close, occasionally falling into their only little bubble, but Yoongi didn’t question it. 
 
“I’m going to make sure everything is running smoothly behind the scenes,” Hoseok declared a couple hours after the club had actually opened to the public. Jimin, Jungkook, and Taehyung declared they were going to dance which left Yoongi alone with Namjoon and Seokjin.

Yoongi took notice of the phone Hoseok left on the seat next to him as it lit up. The contact name read

Jaehyun

. He doesn’t think anything of it until it lights up two, three,

four

, more times. Something doesn’t sit right with Yoongi,

who is Jaehyun and why does he need Hobi so bad??

Before Yoongi can gather the courage to ask Namjoon and Seokjin, Hoseok is back and swiftly depositing the phone in his pocket before asking Yoongi to dance. He chugs the rest of his drink, hoping the warm liquid will get rid of the weird feeling in his gut before agreeing, and letting Hoseok lead him onto the dance floor. 
 
    On the dance floor Yoongi lets his eyes drift to Jimin, Jungkook, and Taehyung who are entangled with each other. Jimin is in the center, Taehyung is behind Jimin, and Jungkook is in front of Jimin. Taehyung and Jungkook are caressing Jimin like he is their most prized possession. Yoongi has never seen them dance like this, and he doesn’t quite know what it means. It’s not his business though, not right now at least, so he lets his eyes drift back to Hoseok who is guiding Yoongi’s hips to the rhythm of the song. It’s dark, but Yoongi can still see Hoseok’s beautiful features under the flashing lights of the club.

If gods existed they would look exactly like Hoseok,

Yoongi thinks because the way Hoseok is looking at him under the lights of the club makes Yoongi want to melt and let Hoseok do whatever he wants right there he looks like a god. 
 
“Have I told you how

hot

you look today baby?” Hoseok asks as he toys with the choker on Yoongi’s neck for a second time during the night, “You even put a choker on, looks so nice and pretty for me.” His lips are right next to Yoongi’s ear, and his voice is low which makes Yoongi shudder.
 
“T-thank you Seok” Yoongi says, letting out a small giggle. The alcohol was starting to get to him now, making his insides feel warm and fuzzy. 
 
“Fuck I could take you right here right now, make all these people watch how good I make you feel, let them hear all the pretty sounds you make for me.” Hoseok says just loud enough for Yoongi to hear, his grip on Yoongi’s hips get a little tighter as he pulls him closer, “You would love that wouldn’t you, you would love to show everyone how good you are for me,”
 
Yoongi can’t formulate a proper response, he just lets out a whine because he’s getting needy. The alcohol has surely made its way around Yoongi’s system now, and his head is cloudy. He can’t think straight, especially when Hoseok grinds against him, the friction making him let out a breathy moan.
 
“Seok-ah, bathroom

now please

” Yoongi practically begs with people surrounding them in the middle of the dance floor. Who was Hoseok to deny Yoongi, who was almost pliant in his arms, the pleasure he desired?

This particular club didn’t have private rooms like the one he had met Yoongi at, so settling for a bathroom stall would have to do. As soon as they locked themselves inside, Hoseok connected his lips to Yoongi’s. Yoongi immediately responded, whining into the kiss. Hoseok eventually moved down to leave a hickey on Yoongi’s neck which had him quietly moaning as Hoseok undid Yoongi’s tight pants. He then proceeded to give Yoongi the best blowjob he’s confident Yoongi has ever recieved.

“There you guys are!” Jungkook says as Hoseok and Yoongi rejoin their friends back at the booth all their friends sat at. 
 
“Looks like you two had a little fun hm?” Namjoon says, eyes drifting to Yoongi’s hickey. The elder turned red, causing the rest to laugh and Hoseok to smirk.
 
Conversation continued for a while, until the group decided they were properly drunk and should probably head back to their respective apartments.  “This was fun, we should definitely all hang out together again!”  Taehyung says before they all part ways and the rest agree.

That night Yoongi stays with Hoseok, passing out as soon as he hits the bed. All thoughts of whoever Jaehyun are forgotten. 
 
   ****** 
 
      This time when Yoongi wakes up, he is still in Hoseok’s arms. It must be afternoon because the sun shines high and bright, causing Yoongi to groan and shield his eyes. He hears a phone buzz, looking next to him he spots Hoseok’s phone and the contact name reads

Jaehyun.

Memories of the same guy blowing up Hoseok’s phone last night come flowing back.

Who is this Jaehyung guy? Is Hosoek cheating on him? No he would never. Right?

“What are you thinking so hard about?” Hoseok asks, tiredness laced in his voice. Yoongi hadn’t realized Hoseok woke up.
 
“Who is Jaehyun?” Yoongi asks before he gets the chance to properly think about it. 
 
Hoseok’s eyes go wide, seemingly fully awake now and taken aback by the question, “Wh-who I mean why do you ask?”
 
Yoongi frowns, “He’s been blowing up your phone since last night.”
 
Hoseok sighs, “Jaehyun is...Jaehyun is my ex.”
 
This time, Yoongi’s eyes are the ones that go wide.

Hoseok’s ex has been blowing up his phone.  He has to be cheating right?

----- CHAPTER BREAK -----

Yoongi’s mind was running a mile a minute, he tried his best to collect his thoughts and respond to Hoseok but he simply couldn’t. He felt insecure, he felt small.   “Yoongi please say something” Hoseok says, trying to place a comforting hand on Yoongi’s shoulder, but Yoongi pushes him off.  A few moments of silence pass, they feel like hours to Yoongi, “Did you...Are you...Are you sleeping with him?” he finally asks in a whisper.  “W-what no! He’s managing the club in Japan, the one I had to go on that business trip for. We met again, purely coincidental, and our interactions were only business-related. He’s been bothering me to talk again, but I’ve been ignoring him, I swear baby.” Hoseok doesn’t know why his first instinct was to lie, well technically it wasn’t all a lie nonetheless he was omitting some details.  Yoongi doesn’t say anything, instead he gets up from the bed and begins to collect his things to leave.  Hoseok sits up, “What are you doing?”  “Leaving.” Yoongi bluntly replies.  “Why?” “I don’t believe you.”  Yoongi doesn’t know why he doesn’t believe Hoseok, he wants to after all but something just doesn’t seem right. He knows what kind of person Hoseok was when they met, a playboy who couldn’t be tied down. Maybe Jimin had a point when he said it was odd that Hoseok had just agreed to stop his fun for a relationship, maybe Yoongi was naive for thinking he could change him. Hoseok tries to stop Yoongi, but Yoongi just ignores him. Without another word, he leaves the room, Namjoon and Seokjin try to greet him but he ignores them too and is out the door.                       *******     Yoongi ignores everyone for the rest of the day. Hoseok keeps calling and texting, Namjoon and Seokjin try to check up on him, even Jungkook tries but Yoongi isn’t having any of it. Eventually, he turns off his phone and shoves it in his nightstand drawer. There was absolutely no one he wanted to talk to right now, instead he laid in bed all day losing himself in his thoughts. What did Yoongi do wrong? Was he not enough for Hoseok? Was the sex bad? What does Jaehyun have that Yoongi doesn’t?      Suddenly a loud knocking at his door rips Yoongi out of his thoughts. He tries to ignore it, but whoever it is won’t go away so, albeit reluctantly, he goes to answer it.  When he opens the door, he sees Jimin staring back at him. “What the hell Yoongi!?” Jimin yells, letting himself into Yoongi’s apartment, “You look like shit.” “Thanks” Yoongi grumbles sarcastically, “Why are you here?” “You’ve ghosted everyone today, I was worried.”  “Well don’t be.” Yoongi sits himself down on the couch and pulls his knees to his chest. “Yoongs please, just tell me what‘s going on.” Yoongi sighs, reluctantly he recalls the conversation he had with Hoseok that morning.  “Yoongi please stay,” Hoseok had begged, “Come back to bed let’s talk about this.”Yoongi didn't say a word, he knew he should probably stay and let Hoseok explain himself but he didn’t want to hear any of it right now. Yoongi felt so small, and in that moment his insecurities were getting the best of him. He couldn’t bear to look Hoseok in the eyes, he felt like he would cry if he did. Maybe he is too sensitive for his own good. Maybe he just wasn’t good enough for Hoseok. “Do you think he’s telling the truth?” Yoongi asks after he’s done explaining what happened. Jimin sighs, “You know I don’t like Hoseok, but I do think you should hear him out more. If not for him, then for you because if you don’t it’ll only tear you apart inside.” “He probably hates me now.” Yoongi mumbles. “I don’t think so, he asked me about you today. He got worried because you weren’t answering anyone.” “Really?” Maybe Hoseok really does care, Yoongi doesn’t know anymore ”You should talk to him.”  Yoongi nods, “Okay, just not now. Not today.” Jimin gives a soft smile, “Fair enough. Now, how does movies ice cream and cuddles sound?” “Perfect!”                         ******     Yoongi hadn’t answered Hoseok all day and it was tearing him apart. Right after Yoongi left that morning, Hoseok called Jaehyun to cuss him out and tell him to stop contacting him unless it was purely business related. After all, Jaehyun was technically working for him so Hoseok couldn't exactly block his number and move on. By late afternoon, there was still no response from Yoongi. Hoseok ended up doing what he does best: throwing himself into his work. If he was working, he didn’t have time to think or worry about Yoongi.  “Hoseok,”Namjoon says peeking his head in Hoseok’s room, “Are you okay? You haven’t come out all day.” “I’ve just been busy working.” Hoseok replies, not removing his eyes from his screen. “Are you okay?” Namjoon repeats. “I’m fine.” “Bullshit.” “Namjoon please just leave me alone I said I’m fine.” Namjoon sighs, but he respects Hoseok’s wishes and leaves him alone.     After about ten more minutes, Hoseok decides he can’t work anymore. He needs to drink, go to a club, get Yoongi off his mind. He dresses in a simple black turtleneck and some fitted jeans and heads out for his most popular club in Seoul. This one has strippers, it’s his favorite club in Seoul.    That night, Hoseok drinks until he can't think straight. His head is light and fuzzy, and he’s barely aware of his actions. No thoughts of Yoongi to be found.

----- CHAPTER BREAK -----

Hoseok wakes up to the sound of his phone going off, indicating that he had a text. He groans as he rolls over and reaches for the phone. His head is pounding, and the sun shining through the windows on the other side of the room felt way too bright. Hoseok rubs his eyes and then looks down at the phone in his hand, but something isn’t right. This wasn’t his phone, and it definitely wasn’t Yoongi’s. Finally he looks next to him, and that is when he notices someone next to him. It wasn’t just anyone either, it was Jaehyun. What the fuck! Why is Jaehyun here, why is he here in Hoseok’s bed! He starts to panic, he remembers nothing about last night. His first instinct is to shake Jaehyun awake.  “What the hell do you want,” Jaehyun groans, sleepiness still evident in his voice. “Why are you here” Hoseok asks quietly. He can’t bring himself to lock eyes with Jaehyun, but he knows the younger’s piercing eyes are locked on him.  Jaehyun chuckles, “You don’t remember?” Hoseok stays silent, and Jaehyun takes that as a cue to explain further, “We met coincidentally at your club last night, by the time I came over to you, it was clear that you drank way too much. You tried to kiss me, but I pushed you off because even I’m not a big enough asshole to indulge you while you’re drunk off your ass.” “That doesn’t explain why you’re shirtless in my bed,” Hoseok replies quietly. Jaehyun sighs and continues to recall last night, “Well I brought you home, and helped you get into bed. You asked me to stay, so I planned on just laying next to you until you fell asleep. You tried to kiss me again, so I stopped you but you insisted that you sobered up enough to know what you were doing. I decided to stop trying to fight you, and we made out, and got each other off. You passed out right after.” Hoseok’s face turns red, how could he have been that desperate for attention from someone that only ever used him for sex. Jaehyun had never loved Hoseok, but Hoseok had once loved Jaehyun so much it was embarrassing.  Maybe Hoseok was thinking about Yoongi when he was begging for Jaehyun’s attention last night, that had to be the only explanation, right? Hoseok finally brings himself to look Jaehyun in the eyes, “Get out,” he says quietly. “Are you seriously mad at me right now?” Jaehyun asks. “I said get out,” Hoseok repeats but Jaehyun doesn’t move, “Get out! Get out! GET OUT!” Hoseok yells, finally breaking. He tosses the phone at Jaehyun and tries to push him out of his bed. He’s so mad at Jaehyun, at himself. Why was Jaehyun in Seoul in the first place, shouldn’t he be running The Dionysus in Japan? “Jesus fuck, fine I’m leaving. You’re as crazy as always Hobi.” Jaehyun replies, throwing his shirt over his body. “Get out of my fucking apartment,” Hoseok repeats one more time, and Jaehyun is gone but not before laughing in his face.  There’s a moment of silence before Hoseok hears what is actually his own phone going off, he picks it up and sees Yoongi’s name pop up on the screen. Can you come over...I would like to talk-Yoogi   I can come now-HoseokI mean if that’s okay with you-Hoseok Yeah, it’s okay. The door will be unlocked-Yoongi Okay baby I’m on my way- Hoseok. His heart clenches, he has about twenty minutes to decide if he is going to tell Yoongi the whole truth.                     ********    Yoongi sits with his knees pulled against his chest on his couch, anxiously waiting for Hoseok to arrive. Jimin had stayed the night, but he left a while ago to go to the dance studio and assured Yoongi his phone would be on in case he needed anything. Yoongi thinks Jimin might work a little too hard, not that he would say anything though. He quietly observes his surroundings as he waits for Hoseok. Yoongi notices the differences between his living space and Hoseok’s. His apartment was nowhere as near as big as Hoseok’s penthouse with a skyline view, Yoongi’s apartment was a small studio layout and not in the best area of Seoul. Hoseok’s penthouse was always clean and polished, Yoongi’s apartment was scattered with textbooks and music sheets and equipment. Yoongi truly loved writing and producing songs, it was how he could express himself best. As a student in his second to last year of university, most of his classes were related to music production but he still had a few classes outside of his major that he didn’t care for much so he always ended up doing the work last minute, hence the various textbook in literature and psychology scattered around the center coffee table.    Yoongi allows himself to get lost in his thoughts, seemingly thinking about nothing and everything at the same time. Before he knows it, about twenty minutes have passed and he hears his door open, revealing Hoseok who didn’t look as confident as he usually did.  “Uh...hi” Hoseok says, still standing awkwardly by the door. Awkward isn’t a good look for Hoseok as Yoongi observes.  “You can come sit,” Yoongi says quietly, taking his eyes away from Hoseok. This is the first time Hoseok has been in his apartment, aside from when he dropped those gifts off when Yoongi wasn’t home, Yoongi wishes he wasn’t here under these circumstances. There’s silence for a few long moments after Hoseok sits down, and Yoongi finally brings himself to say “Tell me everything, the whole truth.”  “When I went to Japan to check out the mess of the club that was supposed to be opening there in just a few days,” Hoseok starts, “I met Jaehyun. It was the first time I’ve seen him in a long time, I guess he was hired to manage the place. I don’t manage who applies or gets hired so it took me off guard. Anyways, the place was a mess and I was fuming, Jaehyun offered to talk business over drinks to take the edge off a bit and I ended up agreeing because nothing ever gets done when I’m pissed off. We did talk business, but then...I...we ended up making out and he gave me a blowjob in the bathroom. He was blowing up my phone for business, but also because he was trying to see me again, but I did ignore him.”  When Hoseok finished his explanation, Yoongi let out a breath he didn’t know he had been holding in.  “That’s why you didn’t call,” Yoongi mumbles, more to himself but Hoseok still hears and his heart wrenches. “What was your relationship with Jaehyun like?” Yoongi isn’t quite sure why he asks, but he does. Hoseok sighs, “I loved him, he was the only person I’ve ever loved. I was very serious about him, but it turns out he was only using me for sex and pleasure. He never cared about me like I cared about him, and that is what launches me into my reckless phase you met me in, I just wanted to forget how much he hurt me.” “I’m sorry Hobi that-” Hoseok cuts Yoongi off before he can finish, “No I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have done that to you, I broke your trust and that was wrong.” “Yeah,” Yoongi whispers, “it was.” Silence hangs in the air again, it’s heavy and Yoongi wishes it would disappear. He wants everything to go back to normal but he knows it can’t, not just yet. “You’ll have to earn back my trust.” Yoongi says, finally looking into Hoseok’s eyes. “I’ll do anything I can.” Yoongi gives a soft smile, “Good, now come here and cuddle me I missed you.”                      ******** Yoongi sat with Jimin, Jungkook and Taehyung in a corner booth at their usual coffee shop at university. Yoongi was working on an assignment, and the other three kept a flow of conversation going. They seemed close, and Yoongi’s been wanting to ask about it ever since they were at Hoseok’s club opening four days ago. “So...what’s up with you three?” Yoongi heard himself ask before he can think anymore about it. “We...well we don’t know.” Jungkook responds. “You don’t know?” Yoongi quirks a brow. Taehyung smirks, “Well Jimin was looking so beautiful when we all hung out that Jungkook and I couldn’t really help ourselves, we ended up absolutely railing him that night.” Yoongi’s eyes go wide, and Jimin turns the darkest shade of pink Yoongi has ever seen, “Oh my god Tae! You’re so shameless, we’re in public!” Jimin whisper shouts. “What’s wrong hyung?,”Jungkook asks, “You certainly weren’t complaining when we-” “Jeon Jungkook don’t you finish that sentence,” Jimin says with a glare. Yoongi snickers, “So...is this like a thing now? You three?”  They shrug, “We don't know yet,” Taehyung responds.                      ****** “You have feelings for them don’t you?” Yoongi asks when it’s just him and Jimin left at the café, Jungkook had class and Taehyung insisted on walking him. Jimin sighs and runs a hand through his silky hair, “Yeah hyung, I think I do. I always had a little thing for Jungkook, and Taehyung is amazing, the two of them together just feel...god i don’t know, right” “Are you going to tell them?” “I don’t want to ruin anything between us…” Yoongi places a comforting hand on top of Jimin’s, “They look at you like you hold their whole universe in your hands Jiminie.” “You think so?”Jimin asks, sounding hopeful. “I know so.” Yoongi replies. He hopes both of them can get their relationship troubles figured out soon. He just wants Jimin to be happy, and most of all he wants himself to be happy with Hoseok.

----- CHAPTER BREAK -----

Jungkook
          Hoseok really was a good judge of character, at first, Jungkook just thought he was making that comment to be cocky but now he can see maybe there was a bit of truth to that statement. Ever since their first text conversation, Jungkook and Taehyung clicked. Jungkook is a hopeless romantic deep inside, and he believes that he and Taehyung were always meant to meet each other, he feels like Taehyung is his soulmate. Jungkook doesn’t think he can live without Taehyung anymore.     Then there is Jimin. Jungkook met Jimin when they were both still in high school through Yoongi. Yoongi was the only person Jungkook knew when he moved to Seoul all on his own at the young age of fifteen. Jungkook had come out to his parents as gay, and they shoved him out of the house to live all on his own. They didn’t consider him as their son anymore. Jungkook wanted to get out of Busan, so his aunt helped him get a small studio apartment and sent him money every month to live on his own. Yoongi happened to be his neighbor, and he took care of Jungkook when he moved in, he was like the older brother he never had. On his first day of school, Jungkook ended up getting into a bad fight and Yoongi had to come pick him up. Jimin was with Yoongi that day, and he had insisted on aiding to Jungkook’s wounds as Yoongi made the two dinner in his apartment and scolded Jungkook for fighting. The next day, Jimin found Jungkook at school and from then on never left his side.     Jungkook never considered having romantic feelings for Jimin, at least he didn’t think so. He didn’t think Jimin ever thought of him in that way either, and Jungkook was in love with Taehyung. Well, he hadn’t said the words to him yet, but Jungkook was pretty sure it was love. If he was in love with Taehyung, why was he conflicted over Jimin? When the three of them had been in bed that night, and Jungkook kissed Jimin for the first time, it felt like a rush of feelings Jungkook didn’t know he had were set free. However, he was in love with Taehyung...could he have feelings for Jimin too?      Everything was so incredibly confusing for Jungkook, it was all so new.  He soon realized that he didn’t just want to fool around with Jimin and Taehyung, but he also wanted to take them on dates, cuddle with them, kiss them without it necessarily leading to something more. Would Taehyung want that too? Would Jimin want that? It felt wrong to think about these things while in a committed relationship with Taehyung, but at the same time it felt right because it wasn’t like he was any less in love with Taehyung, he just...had the same feelings for Jimin too. He loved both of the older boys...at the same time.      What was Jungkook going to do now? How could he tell Taehyung? What if Taehyung didn’t feel the same way? Everything was going good between the two of them, what if saying he wanted something more ruins what he has with Taehyung. Taehyung and Jimin could see their situation as just sex between really close friends or even worse maybe Taehyung decided he liked Jimin more than Jungkook, and he was planning to leave him for Jimin. No no Taehyung wouldn’t do that.    This is all so ridiculous, he should just talk to Taehyung. He wants to know what the older boy is thinking, and the only way to know is to ask. Jungkook pulls out his phone and decides to text Taehyung and ask to meet up. 
Where are you? -Jungkook

Where are you? -Taehyung 
 The texts are sent almost simultaneously. Maybe Taehyung had been thinking about this too, maybe Jungkook wasn’t the only confused one.  *****
Taehyung
   Taehyung has always said he’d try anything once for his whole life. Never did he think that philosophy would lead him to a threesome with his boyfriend and his boyfriend’s closest friend, but now here he is. He didn’t regret it, in fact he would do it again. The problem is now he’s confused because in the short time he’s known Jimin he is pretty sure he has caught feelings for him. Jimin is absolutely beautiful inside and out, he was seemingly perfect. Jimin was also an amazing kisser, among other things, which certainly didn’t hurt. Don’t get him wrong, Taehyung was very much in love with his amazing, beautiful boyfriend. He wouldn’t give Jungkook up ever, actually, he doesn’t think he can live without Jungkook. He isn’t sure how he lived without Jungkook in the first place. Hoseok is actually a really good judge of character.    Jungkook holds the stars in his eyes, he holds Taehyung’s whole galaxy. Which is exactly why Taehyung feels so confused right now. He feels something for Jimin too, he thinks he’s in love. Taehyung isn’t a hopeless romantic like Jungkook, but now he thinks he believes in love at first sight. He wants to take Jimin on dates and cuddle with him, he wants to do that with Jungkook. He wants to be with both of them.    Taehyung is a simple person, he knows what feels right to him and what doesn’t, and if something feels right to him why shouldn’t he follow that? There’s a lot of uncertainties in life, he knows that, but Jimin and Jungkook feel right to him. Jimin, Jungkook, and himself together feel so right. He has never been more certain of anything in his entire life.     There is one thing he is uncertain about though, he doesn’t know how Jimin and Jungkook feel.  He didn’t want to hurt Jungkook, what if Jungkook didn’t feel the same way Taehyung did? What if Jungkook had changed his mind and discovered he had feelings for Jimin only? Then there was Jimin, what if he just saw it as a one-time thing and didn’t have feelings for Taehyung or Jungkook. What would be the point of risking his already seemingly perfect relationship if Jimin wanted no part of them? Taehyung’s head was a mess to put it simply.      He stares at his phone in front of him. He wants to message Jungkook, figure out what he thinks about all this, but he’s scared. After what feels like hours go by, but was probably only twenty minutes, Taehyung finally decides to pick up his phone and ask Jungkook to come over so they can talk.  
Where are you? -Taehyung

Where are you? -Jungkook
 The messages are sent and received almost instantly, was Jungkook thinking about it too? 
I’m at my apartment. -Jungkook

Can you come over to mine? I have something I want to talk to you about. -Taehyung
 
Yes. I wanted to talk to you too. -Jungkook

I’m leaving now. -Jungkook
 Taehyung’s heart raced as he stared at the messages on his phone. Jungkook was coming over, they were going to talk about this. He felt extremely nervous, but also comforted at the same time. He was going to get the answers he needed from Jungkook, he can only hope this will go well.****
Jimin
    Jimin has always been protective of Jungkook. Ever since Yoongi brought him back from that fight at school so many years ago, when they first met, he has been protective of the younger. Jimin never really thought it was anything more than that though, he never had any romantic feelings for Jungkook...or so he thought. Kissing him, among other things, felt like it was an awakening. Jimin is realizing maybe somewhere, deep in his heart he has loved Jungkook a little more than he ever admitted. If Jimin really thinks about it, had Jungkook ever asked him out through their years together Jimin would’ve probably said yes.     Jimin has never had any serious relationships, and he’s certainly never said “I love you” to anyone that wasn’t his mother. It’s not necessarily that he wasn’t interested in getting serious with anyone, he’s just never found someone that felt right. At some point, Jimin had become so involved with his dance and studies that he just stopped looking for love. It has been a long time since he went out with someone or dated. Jimin had decided that he was in love with his dancing so he didn’t need anyone and that was okay until now.        Jimin hadn’t known Taehyung for that long, and up until the three of them fucked after lots of drinking and dancing, he and Taehyung weren’t that close. It’s not like Jimin wasn’t aware of what he was agreeing to when the idea had been brought up that night, he was tipsy but not unaware of his decisions. In fact, Jimin had been the one to ask for it, he had Jungkook and Taehyung pliant and willing to do whatever he wanted with one simple sultry look and a grind of his hips on the dancefloor. Jimin may bottom, and he may be shy and insecure, but in the bedroom he’s always in control.     After that night, the three of them kept hanging out and Jimin felt a lot closer to Taehyung. He hasn’t ever believed in love at first sight, but he thinks he loves Taehyung. Jimin thinks he loves both Taehyung and Jungkook, together. For a few days, Jimin has been imaging going on dates with them, cuddling them, kissing them without it leading to anything more, and he knows he wants to make his daydreams into reality. Jimin’s biggest problem though is that he is insecure.      What if he spoke to them and Taehyung hated him? What if he spoke to them and Jungkook felt betrayed because he thought he was trying to steal Taehyung away? What if neither of them wanted Jimin? What if they thought Jimin was weird and pushed him away? Jimin’s head was full of nothing but what-ifs. Jimin has also been thinking a lot about what Yoongi told him. “They look at you like you hold their whole universe in your hands Jiminie.” Yoongi is very observant, he always has been. Jimin knows Yoongi's observations are usually not far from inaccurate too. He thinks he needs to talk to them, no he knows he needs to. For his sanity, Jimin decides that he would approach Taehyung and Jungkook to confess to them. It might be selfish, Jimin thinks, to take care of his own needs when he knows it could potentially ruin their friendships; however, Jimin needed this for himself.Sometimes being selfish is okay.****       Jungkook was shaking with nerves by the time he reached Taehyung’s place. Taehyung had moved out of his old apartment and into the room he had in Hoseok’s penthouse while he looked for a new place because the area his old apartment was in had gotten too sketchy. He let himself in, knowing he hade permission from Hoseok and Taehyung not to knock anymore. Taehyung’s room was on the opposite side of Hoseok’s and Namjoon’s but Jungkook still had to pass through the large living room to get to it. Yoongi and Hoseok were sitting on the couch as Jungkook passed by, he thinks one of them said something to him but can’t register what it was, the only thing on his mind is the conversation he’s about to have with Taehyung.    “You’re here,” Taehyung says when Jungkook opens the door, “and you’re shaking.” He observes once Jungkook takes a hesitant seat next to Taehyung on his bed. Jungkook can’t reply, he can’t look Taehyung in the eyes either. “Hey baby, calm down it’s okay. What has you so worked up?” “I…” Jungkook starts, but stops for a moment. He’s scared, so scared, but if he doesn’t say it now he never will. Jungkook clears his throat and meets Taehyung’s gaze, “I think I’m in love with Jimin hyung.”  “Oh,” is all Taehyung says, his expression is unreadable. It’s silent for a moment. Then, “Only Jimin hyung?” Jungkook shakes his head, “N-no! I love you, I love you so much...but Jimin hyung too. Both of you. I’m in love with both of you. I’m sorry, it’s weird isn’t it? It’s weird and you hate me and-”  “Me too,”  Taehyung says quietly, cutting off Jungkook’s rambling. “I love both of you too.” “Do you want to…” Jungkook doesn’t finish his sentence, but Taehyung nods because he knows what he means.  Suddenly Jungkook giggles. “Why are you laughing?” Taehyung asks, cocking his head to the side.  “This is just a lot easier than I expected, I thought you would hate me,” Jungkook admits. Taehyung leans in and places an emotion-filled kiss on Jungkook’s lips, “I could never hate you Kookie,” Taehyung says, “I love you so much.” “I love you too hyung.” Taehyung smiles, “Now should we talk to Jimin? He texted me earlier saying he wanted to meet with us.” Jungkook nods, “Let’s go get him.”****       Jimin is on his way to Taehyung’s room, the younger had asked him to come over because Jungkook was already there. He had been over with Jungkook and Taehyung many times before, but this time felt different. Maybe it was because he knows it will probably be the last time here with them. Jimin is nervous, every passing second feels like hours. He is about to lose his best friends, he just wanted to go to Yoongi and cry in his arms as he passes him and Hoseok in the living room.  “Minnie you’re here,” Taehyung observes as Jimin appears in the room, “come sit.” Jimin sits at the foot of the bed, across from Jungkook and Taehyung. “What did you want to talk about?”  This was it, it’s now or never. “I want a relationship with you both, together!” Jimin blurts, his face immediately turning red. Taehyung smiles and leans a little closer to Jimin, their lips are almost touching. “Let me know if this isn’t okay,” he whispers and then connects his lips to Jimin’s in a slow kiss. Jimin freezes in shock at first but then responds to the kiss. Then, Taehyung is pulling away too soon and before he knows it, Jungkook is kissing Jimin.  “Be ours, Minnie,” Taehyung says when Jungkook pulls away and settles back next to his boyfriend, “be our boyfriend.” Jimin smiles and launches himself back at Taehyung and Jungkook, and hugs them. “Yes,” Jimin whispers, “God yes.”     Then Jimin is kissing Jungkook again, but this time it’s rougher and more passionate. Jimin straddles Jungkook and threads his fingers through the younger’s hair. Taehyung watches his two boyfriends make out for a minute. When Jimin rolls his hips in Jungkook’s lap, Jungkook lets out a whine and Taehyung can’t help but join the two. He starts to mouth at Jimin’s neck, and bites down a little, sucking at the skin to leave a mark. Jimin whines into his kiss with Jungkook and eventually switches so he is straddling and making out with Taehyung and Jungkook leaves hickeys on Jimin’s collar bone.  Things escalate from there, let’s just say the three of them don’t get much sleep that night.

----- CHAPTER BREAK -----

It has been about three months since Yoongi and Hoseok had a bump in their relationship, but since then things have seemed to be going amazing. A lot had happened in the span of three months. Taehyung had finally found a place and moved out and brought Jimin with him, Jungkook was still living in the dorms on campus for the remainder of the semester, but was planning to move in with his two other boyfriends over the summertime. Namjoon and Jin had also finally decided it was time to find their own place, and that left Hoseok with his giant penthouse all to himself. Yoongi had spent most of his time at Hoseok’s place these days, and with it just being the two of there has been room for them to have a lot of fun when their busy schedules allowed it.     Now, the semester has just ended and Yoongi was looking forward to spending more time with Hoseok. It has been half a year since the two met, and they have already gone through so much, but with Yoongi now having more time on his hands he hoped to spend more time with Hoseok working on building their relationship. Things weren’t perfect, he still had a sliver of doubt in Hoseok ever since the Jaehyun situation, but hopefully that would disappear soon. Even so, now Yoongi was curled up against Hoseok watching as he worked on something business-related and he felt content, like none of their problems ever existed in the first place.  “What are you thinking about?” Hoseok asks when he takes a break from his work and looks down at Yonngi who rests his head on his shoulder. “How do you know I’m thinking?” Yoongi asks with a hint of a playful smile.  “Your face gets all scrunched up when you think, it’s adorable.”  A light pink dusts Yoongi’s face, “I was thinking about us, how I want to spend more time with you now that the semester is over. I think we’ve been doing really well, but I know we have a little more trust-building to do.” Hoseok smiles softly, “I know baby, and I’m ready to do anything to work on us.” Yoongi giggles, showing off his gummy smile that Hoseok has fallen in love with, “When did you become such a sap Hobi?” “It’s what you do to me Min Yoongi.”   Then Yoongi leans in for a kiss. The kiss isn’t heated or full of desire, it’s slow and passionate. They stay there for a while, lazily making out with the afternoon sun providing warmth from Hoseok’s floor to ceiling windows. It can’t get better than this Yoongi thinks, he is happy so so happy.  *****
 “I wonder what they called us here for,” Jimin observes as they sit at a large booth in the back of a lowkey bar. Namjoon and Seokjin had called the seven of them to meet here without saying why. So now, Hoseok, Yoongi, Jimin, Jungkook, and Taehyung are seated in the bar waiting on Namjoon and Seokjin to arrive. 
 
“Well I think we’re about to find out,” Hoseok answers as Namjoon and Seokjin approach the table and seat themselves. Hoseok and Jimin have been getting along a lot better recently, which Yoongi is appreciative of. 
 
“So you all are probably wondering why we asked you all to come here today,”

Namjoon starts as soon as everyone has drinks, “Seokjin and I actually had something we want to tell you.”  
 
Seokjin grabs Namjoon’s hand under the table and lifts them up for everyone to see the silver bands on both of their ring fingers, “We’re getting married!” 
 
  The announcement is followed by a round of congratulations and smiles from the group, “To Namjoon and Seokjin, it was about time!” Hoseok toasts and everyone joins with laughter. 
 
“There’s something else too,” Namjoon speaks up after the group calmed down, “Seokjinnie has a family vacation home in Okinawa on the beach. We wanted to take a trip there for a couple of weeks with all of you.” 
 
“Oooo when??” Taehyung asks excitedly. 
 
“Next week,” Namjoon answers. 
 
  Taehyung, Jimin, and Jungkook immediately agree, bouncing up and down in their seats like excited children. Yoongi looks to Hoseok who seems deep in thought.

“What do you think Hobi?” Yoongi asks with a cute expression that Hoseok can’t say no to. He knows that if he stays behind Yoongi will most likely insist on staying behind with him, and he doesn’t take away this opportunity from him. 
 
“I should be able to make it work.” Hoseok agrees. The others cheer, and they spend the rest of the night laughing and talking. Yoongi is excited, this trip could not only be a good opportunity for the seven of them but for Hoseok and Yoongi to spend some time together as well with no work involved. 
 
*****

Two weeks passed by agonizingly slow for Yoongi. Hoseok had been super busy with work, leaving Yoongi lonely

and a bit sexually frustrated if he was honest.

The flight wasn’t long, and before the seven boys knew it, they were at Seokjin’s family vacation home on the beach. It was absolutely beautiful. The house was right on the beach, which happened to be a private beach owned by the Kims. The interior of the home was decorated in beautiful earthy tones, with an open plan. There were giant windows surrounding the living room that let the light filter through and gave a perfect view of the clear water. The kitchen had marble counters and the upstairs provided five bedrooms, each accompanied with gorgeous bathrooms and king-sized beds. Yoongi was amazed by the place.
 
“This is beautiful,” Yoongi comments when he and Hoseok are in their designated bedroom unpacking. 
 
Hoseok hums, “It is isn’t it.”
 
   Yoongi sits on the edge of the bed, watching as Hoseok continues to unpack. Yoongi had finished a little bit before but he insisted on waiting to go join the others downstairs. He watched as Hoseok bent down to pick things up and put them away, following the curve of his back, eyes landing on Hoseok’s ass, and admired how beautiful his boyfriend really is. Hoseok could feel Yoongi’s eyes on him, so he made more of a show as he bent down to pick up the last of his stuff and put it away. Yoongi noticed immediately. 
 
“Stop that,” Yoongi whispers. 
 
Hoseok turns to face Yoongi now, “Stop what?” he asks with a smirk.
 
“You know what.”
 
Hoseok moves to place himself on Yoongi’s lap, and traces his bottom lip with his thumb, “Are you feeling a little needy?” he asks, and goes down to kiss along Yoongi’s jaw. Yoongi sighs at the contact, this small touch already getting him worked up. Then, Hoseok stops, way too soon, “Answer me

kitten.”

Yoongi whimpers at the nickname, “Y-yes” he answers. Hoseok kisses him, it’s rough and full of desire. Hoseok threads his hands in Yoongi’s hair and tugs a little making Yoongi let out a breathy moan. He moves down to leave open mouth kisses down Yoongi’s neck, leaving a mark when he finds a sweet spot. Yoongi is losing himself already and knows the others are waiting for them for dinner downstairs, but he hasn’t had this kind of contact with Hoseok for so long so he can’t bring himself to care. Hoseok brings his hand down to palm at the bulge in Yoongi’s jeans and he absolutely loses it.
 
“Please seok” Yoongi begs, although he’s not quite sure what he’s asking for. All he knows is that he needs

more.

“What do you need kitten?” Hoseok asks, still palming Yoongi. 
 
“I- more I need

more

.” Yoongi is sure he sounds absolutely embarrassing, but again he doesn’t care.
 
“How about my mouth, do you want my mouth on your pretty little dick baby?” Hoseok whispers against his ear and Yoongi about

loses it.

“Yes, yes please

god Seok please”

“The others are waiting for us.” Hoseok points out and Yoongi wants to scream in frustration.
 
“Then be quick,” he grumbles. Hoseok smirks, he loves when Yoongi gets demanding. So without another word, Hoseok is on his knees and pulling down Yoongi’s joggers and boxers in one go. When Hoseok wraps his lips around Yoongi, he thinks he sees stars. Yoongi becomes a whining moaning mess under Hoseok’s mouth. He looks and notices the door is still cracked open, which only increases his arousal. If anyone walked past, they would certainly be able to see or at least hear what was going on. 
 
“Seok,” Yoongi moans, tangling his hand in Hoseok’s hair, “Seok I’m close don’t stop

don’t stop

.” Which only makes Hoseok go faster, and before he knows it, Yoongi is releasing down Hoseok’s throat. Hoseok swallows it down and makes a show of licking his lips clean. 
 
“You’re so fucking sinful.” Yoongi mumbles as Hoseok goes back up to kiss Yoongi. Yoongi can taste himself on Hoseok’s tongue which is really hot to him.
 
“We need to get downstairs before the others start to worry,” Hoseok says against Yoongi’s lips and Yoongi just nods.
 
*****
 
“Wow finally, what took you so long?” Seokjin asks when Yoongi and Hoseok appear downstairs. He notices Yoongi’s flushed face and Hoseok’s tousled hair, “You know what I don’t even want to know.” Yoongi’s face heats up and Hoseok snickers, the two of them sit down at the table.
 
“Couldn’t wait until later when we weren’t all waiting on you hm?” Jimin whispers and Yoongi playfully hits his arm. 
 
  The dinner goes well, it’s nice to sit down together, talk, and just enjoy each other’s presence. Yoongi feels really at peace, he isn’t the type to talk much, he prefers to just sit back and watch his friends have fun. He notices how touchy Namjoon and Seokjin really are with each other. It’s subtle but still really sweet. They’re really perfect for each other, and he admires their relationship. The seven of them make plans to spend the day on the beach tomorrow, and after what feels like minutes despite being hours, they are all retreating to bed.

Yoongi snuggles up to Hoseok when the two of them are in bed, and rests his head on Hoseok’s chest. Sleepiness overcomes him as his eyes flutter shut, but he doesn’t get to stay that way for long. “You didn’t think I’d let you sleep so easily after giving me a little problem all night hm?”  Hoseok whispers in Yoongi’s ear, guiding Yoongi’s hand down to the hardness in Hoseok’s shorts. Yoongi is fully awake now.  He smirks, bringing himself on top of Hoseok to straddle his waist. 
 
“Aw does Hobi have a little problem?” Yoongi asks with a smirk, pushing some of the hair out of  Hoseok’s face. 
 
“You caused it,” Hoseok chokes out as Yoongi gives a teasing roll of his hips. 
 
“Then let me fix it.”

Yoongi is feeling more dominant tonight, and Hoseok isn’t complaining. He doesn’t show his dominant side often, but when he does Hoseok loves it. He let’s go as Yoongi absolutely ruins him that night, pinning his hands against the headboard and whispering dirty things in his ear as he rails him into the mattress. When the two of them are all finished and Hoseok is cuddling Yoongi against his bare chest he feels something tug at his heart. He watches the sleeping boy and realizes that he has totally fallen. It is then that Hoseok comes to the conclusion that he is in love with Yoongi. Hoseok is sure he loves Yoongi more than he has ever loved anyone, including Jaehyun.

How do you do it?,

Hoseok wonders as he drifts into sleep,

how do you make me feel things I didn’t know were possible?

----- CHAPTER BREAK -----

Every day Hoseok finds something that makes Yoongi more endearing. Today, it’s the fact that the group is spending the day on the beach in the hot sun, but Yoongi is still dressed in black from head to toe. No, Hoseok was not being overdramatic, Yoongi was dressed in a black bucket hat, loose-fitting black t-shirt, and a pair of black shorts that stop just above his knees. Hoseok was starting to wonder if the boy had any color to his wardrobe. 
 
“Poor Yoongi,” Taehyung says, startling Hoseok and pulling him out of his thoughts, “it looks like you attacked his neck.” 
 
  Hoseok and Taehyung are walking a bit behind the group as they make their way down the beach. Hoseok had noticed the marks on Yoongi’s neck earlier, there were two of them. One from last night, and one from this morning, both of the hickeys were prominent enough for anyone to notice. Hoseok liked it, he thinks the contrast of the red marks against Yoongi’s pale skin is pretty. 
 
“I like to think of it as art,” Hoseok replies with a smirk, keeping his eyes trained on Yoongi ahead of them, “besides he definitely

doesn’t

complain while I’m leaving them.” 
 
Taehyung’s face twists in an expression of mock disgust, “Ok ew didn’t need to know that.”
 
“Oh please, like you aren’t fucking like rabbits with Jimin and Jungkook.”
 
Taehyung shrugs, “They like to play, who am I to ignore them? Besides if I don’t pay attention to them, they’ll just make a show of getting each other off right next to me until I put them in their place.” 
 
Hoseok fake gags, “Okay now

I

definitely did

not need to know that.

” 
 
Taehyung just laughs, “We got really lucky don’t you think?” he asks. Hoseok doesn’t have to look over to know that Taehyung’s eyes are on Jimin and Jungkook who are messing around, the same way he is looking at Yoongi who is laying down a beach towel and situating himself on it. 
 
“Yeah...I really think we did,” and Hoseok meant it. He could confidently say Yoongi is the best thing that has ever happened to him. He’s felt the happiest he’s ever felt in these past months with Yoongi, and whenever they were apart he found himself wanting to be near the older. It was a miracle that it took Hoseok until the night before to realize that he was hopelessly in love. 
 
****

Yoongi watched as the group messed around in the water. He wasn’t one for beaches, well at least the water part, he much preferred to sit back in the sand and enjoy the sun while reading or, writing lyrics if he was feeling inspired. Today he was feeling inspired. He scribbled thoughts into his battered up lyric book, taking breaks to observe his friends having fun. Taehyung, Jungkook, and Jimin were indulging in a war that involved them splashing water at each other; Namjoon was looking for tiny crabs, showing Hoseok and Seokjin every time he found one, and Hoseok and Seokjin were talking with each other, standing slightly behind Namjoon. Hoseok bends down every once in a while, Yoongi thinks he might be looking at shells but he’s not sure. Yoongi smiles at the scene in front of him,

this is what true happiness must feel like.

Eventually, Hoseok catches his eye and sends Yoongi a warm smile followed by blowing a kiss, Yoongi giggles shaking his head and going back to his writing.
 
  A little while later, the boys decide to settle down and eat the lunch they had packed. Hoseok takes enough food for him and Yoongi and goes over to where Yoongi is sitting cross-legged on his beach towel not really far from the others. He is too busy writing that he doesn’t notice Hoseok approaching him.
 
“Hi angel, hungry?” Hoseok asks, sitting next to Yoongi.
 
Yoongi takes the food offered to him with a smile, “Yeah, thank you.”
 
“What have you been writing with your adorable little concentrated face for the past couple of hours?” Hoseok asks as Yoongi closes the book and shoves some food into his mouth. He hadn’t noticed how hungry he was.
 
Yoongi shrugs, “Just some lyrics, this place is really inspiring.”  Hoseok makes a reach for the book to look inside, “No no, I don’t think so.”
 
Hoseok pouts, “I can’t see?”
 
“Maybe one day when it’s finished, but it’s really just a jumble of thoughts right now.” Yoongi mumbles, taking the book back into his own hands.
 
The two of them eat in silence for a while, Yoongi leaning against Hoseok. Once the two are done, Hoseok remembers what he had picked up earlier by the water.
 
“Hey,” Hoseok says, getting Yoongi’s attention, “I got something for you.”
 
Yoongi sits up straight, taking his head off Hoseok’s shoulder, “Huh? What is it?” He wasn’t sure what it could be, seeing as they had spent the whole day by the water. 
 
Hoseok pulls something out of his pocket, “I found this earlier while I was with Seokjin and Namjoon, it reminded me of you.” 
 
In Hoseok’s outstretched palm sat an iridescent seashell that was a beautiful shade of blue, it was shiny. Yoongi picked the shell out of Hoseok’s hand and inspected it in his own, it was smooth and very pretty. He knows it’s not much, but the gesture from Hoseok made his heart swell. Yoongi knew Hoseok wasn't one for gestures like this, the blush and sheepish smile in Hoseok’s face was only confirmation.
 
“It’s really pretty Hobi,” Yoongi said looking up at Hoseok with a gummy smile, “I love it.”
 
Hoseok smiles back and leans in to play a slow and sweet kiss on Yoongi’s lips. They probably would’ve kissed a little longer if they weren’t interrupted by low whistles from the other boys just a few feet away and Jungkook going, “Save it for the bedroom guys!” Which made Yoongi let out an embarrassed groan and hide his face in Hoseok’s neck.
 
Hoseok chuckles, “You’re embarrassing him Jungkook.” He calls back which only earns a laugh from the others.
 
****

It was a while later, and the group sat around a fire with drinks in their hands. While the sun was setting, Jungkook and Seokjin had gone to get some firewood and the rest hung back to watch the sunset over the water. The seven of them were talking about anything that came to mind, all of them pleasantly buzzed due to the few beers they’ve had. Yoongi had started to loosen up, opting to share some embarrassing stories about Jungkook from his teen years. “

Hyung stopp

” Jungkook had groaned but Yoongi kept going. Jimin and Taehyung especially were getting a kick out of it.

Hoseok thought it was nice to see Yoongi like this, more open and social. The older was usually quieter, choosing to observe rather than partake in conversation so this was nice. Every time he laughed, Hoseok could feel it because Yoongi was leaning up against his chest. It was a nice sight, Hoseok thinks he could stay like this forever.

Yoongi was content and comfortable, Hoseok lightly played with Yoongi’s hair as he leaned his back against Hoseok’s chest. It was nice, interacting with his friends and sitting comfortably against his boyfriend. There was no sexual tension, they were just together enjoying each other’s company. This is what Yoongi has always wanted, throughout his life he had always struggled to find people he belonged with, but now he finally felt like he found his space.
 
“You’re thinking again,” Hoseok whispered against Yoongi’s hair as Jimin told yet another story to embarrass Jungkook. 
 
“ ‘m just happy, happy with you, with all of us,” Yoongi whispers back, earning a kiss against him and Hoseok’s intertwined hands. 
 
“SO!” Jungkook suddenly yells, getting everyone’s attention and forcing Jimin to stop embarrassing him and pulling Yoongi and Hoseok from their own little bubble, “Seokjin hyung and Namjoon hyung have you started planning the wedding?”
 
Namjoon groans, “Oh god don’t remind me, we don’t even have a date, let alone a wedding planner yet.”
 
“Let me do it! Let me do it!” Taehyung begs bouncing excitedly in Jimin’s lap, “I’ve always wanted to plan a wedding!!”
 
Seokjin looks at Namjoon and they both shrug, “Why not.” Namjoon agrees. 
 
Taehyung jumps excitedly and Jungkook has to hold him down, whispering something in his ear probably about how he was hurting Jimin’s lap.

Taehyung begins to excitedly chatter with Namjoon about some details and Seokjin looks at them fondly. Yoongi observes the scene, his heart warm and leans more against Hoseok who wraps his arms around Yoongi’s waist pulling him impossibly closer.

Nothing

Yoongi thought

could ruin this feeling of happiness and content.

----- CHAPTER BREAK -----

At this point in their relationship, Hoseok knew that Yoongi had an exhibitionism kink, but what he didn’t realize was how big that kink actually was. He knew that Yoongi loved it when there was the possibility of people hearing him or possibly walking in on Hoseok pleasuring him, but with the situation Hoseok found himself in now it’s clear how much Yoongi actually

thrives

on the idea of being seen or getting caught. It all started the night before, both of them properly buzzed from drinking at the beach, but neither of them actually drunk enough to not be thinking coherently or not remember anything the next morning.

“Let’s make this trip a little more fun,” Yoongi spoke. He was currently cuddled up against Hoseok, head resting on his bare chest while Hoseok carded his finger lightly through his hair like he knew calmed him.

“What do you mean?” Hoseok asked, shifting his gaze to meet Yoongi’s eyes. There was a glint of something playful in them.

“I want to play a game.”

Hoseok raised a questioning eyebrow,“A game?” he was confused.

Yoongi nods slightly, “Mhm, we have to get each other off, no matter when or where or who’s around.  It could be completely random, but when one of us starts we have to finish. No getting caught though.”

“Are you drunk?” Hoseok asks, widening his eyes. Fuck that really turned him on though, he could get hard at just the thought.

Yoongi giggles like he hadn’t just suggested something so dirty, “No, I’m pretty sober actually.” Silence for a moment. “So what do you think?”

Hoseok took in a sharp breath, “I’m in.” He agreed.

And that’s how Hoseok ended up where he is now. The group had decided to settle down and watch a movie after being out on a boat all day. The day had passed without Yoongi starting their little game they discussed the night before, until now. They were watching some comedy movie, Namjoon and Jin were sitting together on a loveseat, Jimin Jungkook and Taehyung had opted for laying on the floor together, and Hoseok and Yoongi were sprawled out on the long couch in the center. Everyone was cuddled up in blankets, Yoongi was laying with his head resting on Hoseok’s chest which seemed to be his favorite position for cuddling. It wasn’t until the middle of the movie that Yoongi started getting handsy.

After making sure everyone’s eyes were trained on the screen in front of them, Yoongi snaked his hand underneath Hoseok’s t-shirt, stopping to toy with his nipple as he peppered small open mouthed kisses on Hoseok’s neck. That was when it was clear Yoongi’s game had begun.

“Now? Are you sure?” Hoseok whispered, but Yoongi just kept going. He went on to quietly leave a mark on Hoseok’s neck, and then another on his collarbone. Flash forward to the current moment, Yoongi’s hand is wrapped around Hoseok’s hard on, slowly jerking him off.

“

Ah kitten so good”

Hoseok breathes out as Yoongi uses his thumb to toy with his slit.

“Shh,”Yoongi whispered, eyes on the tv in front of them, “you wouldn’t want the others to hear hm?”

Yoongi quickened his pace a little bit, still making sure the movements weren’t loud or obvious under the blanket, and Hoseok opts for hiding his face in Yoongi’s hair to try and make it look like he fell asleep. He lets out quiet, shallow breaths,

god this was so dirty but so so hot.

“Close?” Yoongi asks, almost too quiet for Hoseok to hear. Hoseok chooses to nod slightly instead of speaking because he doesn’t trust his voice right now.

Yoongi gives a few more harsh, but subtle, tugs and looks up to whisper in Hoseok’s ear “Let go for me Seok.” And that does it, Hoseok is releasing into Yoongi’s hand that is helping him ride his high. Once he’s done, Yoongi carefully collects it onto his three fingers and lifts them up to his own lips to clean it off and stares Hoseok right in the eyes the whole time. Their friends took no notice, still concentrating on the movie and

wow shit Hoseok had really just done that. Yoongi had got him off with all of their friends less than feet away and it was so so dirty but so so hot

.

“You’re so fucking dirty kitten,” Hoseok growled quietly and captured Yoongi’s lips in a slightly heated kiss, still dazed from his orgasm.

It was then that Namjoon decided to look their way, probably hearing the sound of their little make out session, “Get a room you two!” He said with a laugh, causing Hoseok to throw a glare his way.

Oh he is

definitely

going to get Yoongi back for this one.
 
                       *****

The next round of their little game happens at another beach campfire. Yoongi is sitting on Hoseok’s lap in a lounge chair, so Hoseok decides he’s going to take advantage of this situation. It’s a little chilly, so there’s a blanket laying across their laps.

“Wanna play?” Hoseok asks with a low, sultry tone against Yoongi’s ear. He starts to play with the waistband of Yoongi’s sweatpants, given the rules of their game Yoongi doesn’t really have a choice to refuse; although, if he truly didn’t want it he knows he could stop it. Yoongi lets out a shaky breath as Hoseok slips his hand under Yoongi’s pants and starts to massage his ass, and he knew where this was going. After a minute or two, Hoseok’s hand finds its way in Yoongi’s underwear and before he knows it a finger is prodding at his rim. Yoongi almost chokes as it slides in with almost no resistance because the two of them had messed around earlier and he was still loose.
 
Jungkook gives Yoongi a questioning look pausing whatever story he was telling, “Everything okay Yoongi?” He asks.

Yoongi just nods, “Yeah, of course, everything i-is fine.” He replies, hoping he didn’t sound affected by Hoseok sliding his finger around inside him. Jungkook seems satisfied and continues talking.
 
“Stay quiet for me baby” Hoseok warns as he slides a second finger in. Yoongi takes a sip of the drink in his hand, trying to do anything to distract him from the fact that Hoseok’s expert fingers were exploring his hole, purposefully avoiding his prostate for now. Before he knows it, Hoseok is sliding a third finger in, teasing his prostate. Yoongi is fully hard, he could feel his dick leaking in his pants and it takes everything in him to hold back a whimper.

“Touch me please,” Yoongi whispers, intertwining his hand with Hoseok’s and guiding them onto his erection over the blanket.

“No baby, you’re going to come from my fingers alone,” Hoseok whispers back, perfectly hitting Yoongi’s prostate now.
 
“Are you sure you’re okay Yoons, your face is flushed. Are you getting sick?” Jimin asks, ripping Yoongi out of his bubble.
 
Yoongi nods, “I’m perfect, promise.” He really doesn’t know how he gets away with that without sounding completely wrecked, but somehow he does. Namjoon starts talking about some recent case he worked on, but Yoongi can't bring himself to register anything that’s being said. The reality of the situation he’s in with Hoseok abusing his prostate agonizingly slow, as to not be obvious, with all their friends so close brings Yoongi right to the edge. He can’t believe what he had gotten himself into by proposing this, honestly he hadn’t thought Hoseok would agree. 
Hoseok seems to notice Yoongi is on the edge and says “Let go for me kitten” right against his ear, repeating what Yoongi has said to him before which has Yoongi spilling and making a mess in his underwear. Holy shit he had just come untouched in front of everyone god that is so hot and one of the most mind blowing orgasms he’s ever had.
Hoseok carefully slides his hand out of Yoongi’s ass and sanitizes it. Then, he goes back to lightly playing with Yoongi’s hair and talking with their friends like nothing ever happened. Yoongi decides he wants the upper hand again, and he knew just how he was going to get it.
 
                   *****
 
   Yoongi is a brat. He had been teasing Hoseok all day in the slightest ways, and Hoseok just wanted to fuck the life out of him. He was so turned on, he’ll explode any second. The seven of them were spending the day enjoying the luxurious pool at the house, and when Seokjin had suggested someone go in and grab some snacks and water Hoseok practically jumped at the chance, dragging Yoongi with him. He was going to quickly teach Yoongi a lesson,

or so he thought

.
 
“You’ve been teasing me all day kitten, what's that about,” Hoseok growled as soon as they were in the kitchen.

“Have I?” Yoongi asks with the most innocent expression. Hoseok wants to fuck it out of him.

“You know you have.”

Yoongi decides to let Hoseok think he’s in control for a little bit, “So what are you going to do about it?” He asks.

Hoseok doesn't reply, instead he crashes his lips against Yoongi’s in a heated lust filled kiss. He leads them over to the couch, only separating from Yoongi to pull his shirt off, Hoseok’s already removed from being in the water. When they reach the loveseat, Yoongi decides to take control. He pushes Hoseok down so he’s sitting on the couch, and climbs into his lap.

“What are you doing?” Hoseok asks when Yoongi pulls to remove his swim shorts.

“I’m going to ride you.” Yoongi says like it’s the most obvious thing in the world.

“Here? Now?” Hoseok questions, the loveseat faces the giant floor to ceiling windows which has a perfect view of the pool and their friends messing around. There was some distance between the house and the pool but if any of them looked in the direction of the house, they might be able to make out what’s going on. “Someone might see.”

“So?”

“They’re waiting for us.”

“Then I better be quick.”

“Fuck okay.”

Before he knows it, Yoongi is bouncing on his dick like his life depends on it and letting out the prettiest whimpers and moans. Hoseok reaches down to wrap a hand around Yoongi’s dick and gives a few tugs before Yoongi takes Hoseok’s hand off and moves it up to his neck, lightly wrapping Hoseok’s fingers around the column of his throat.

“Are you sure?” Hoseok asks. Choking isn’t something they’ve tried yet.

“Yes, god yes

please.”

Yoongi practically begs and who is Hoseok to deny him?

He wraps his fingers around Yoongi’s throat a little tighter and Yoongi speeds up his movements. Soon his hand drops and Hoseok is reduced to a moaning mess.

“You look so fucking pretty like this baby.” Hoseok says breathlessly.

“Yeah? Does Seok like the way I ride his dick? Feels so good inside me, feels so full.”

Hoseok lets out a loud moan as he reaches his orgasm, he loves when Yoongi talks dirty like that and it sends him right over the edge. Yoongi follows right after and is pulling off of Hoseok almost right after, getting dressed and heading to the kitchen to grab what they originally came in for.

“Where are you going?” Hoseok asks, still a mess on the couch.

“Our friends are waiting for us, remember?” Yoongi replies flashing his gummy smile like he wasn’t talking dirty just a few minutes ago.

Fuck this boy was really going to be the death of him and he was so hopelessly in love.

----- CHAPTER BREAK -----

After spending a week at Seokjin’s vacation home, Namjoon decided to propose a change of scenery for the last week of their trip and suggested traveling to Tokyo. All of them agreed, especially Jimin and Taehyung who wanted to go clubbing. So now, the seven of them were on their second night in Tokyo and decided to go out. Hoseok and Yoongi are currently getting ready in their hotel room, Yoongi was dressed in a simple, loose, white button down with black skinny jeans that hugged his legs nicely and was currently styling his hair in the bathroom. “Hey, uh what club are we going to?” Yoongi asked from the bathroom when he realized he didn’t actually know. “The Dionysus, the one I own here,” Hoseok answers from the bedroom. “The one Jaehyun manages…” Yoongi replies, more to himself. Hoseok suddenly appears behind Yoongi in the bathroom and places a comforting hand on his shoulder, “Yeah, is that okay? We can choose a different one if you’re not comfortable with it, but you probably won’t even see him if he’s really doing his job.”Yoongi takes a moment to think, “No no it’s fine we can go.” He decides, he doesn’t want to let himself get in his own head, especially if it was going to ruin his friend’s plans. “Are you sure baby?” Hoseok asks, looking genuinely concerned, “It’s really okay if you want to go somewhere else, there’s tons of other places to go clubbing.” Yoongi nods and flashes Hoseok a smile, “I’m sure Hobi.” “Okay...by the way you look very pretty tonight.” Hoseok tells him and Yoongi feels a slight blush creep into his cheeks. His ears were decorated with three silver dangle earrings in each ear, he had put a slight reddish eyeshadow on, his neck was lined with a thin black choker, and his hair was slightly curled. Hoseok couldn’t get enough of the sight in front of him. “You don't look too bad yourself,” Yoongi answers and turns around to place a kiss on the younger’s lips. “Ok ok we should get going before we don’t leave at all.” Hoseok says against Yoongi’s lips when they part.  Tonight is going to be a good night, Yoongi decides, he won’t let anything or anyone ruin it for him. *****
 The night was going really well, Yoongi had spent most of it dancing with Hoseok on the dance floor. Eventually when he got tired, Yoongi excused himself to go get a drink while Hoseok returned to the booth where all their friends were gathered. 
 
“What can I get you tonight?” The bartender asks when Yoongi approaches the counter.

“One vodka tonic.” Yoongi replies.

“What’s a pretty thing like you doing alone tonight?” The bartender asks as he starts to make Yoonig’s drink, his tone sounds flirtatious and Yoongi doesn’t like it.

“I’m not alone, I’m here with my boyfriend.” Yoongi replies bluntly, trying to sound as uninterested as possible; although he'd be lying if he said the bartender didn’t have a handsome face, he thought the slight blue streaks in his hair were cool.

“Ah I’m sorry if I overstepped,” the bartender says, “I’m Jaehyun.”

“Yoongi,” he answers but then it sinks in who he was talking to.

Jaehyun, Hoseok’s Jaehyun.

“Oh so you’re the infamous Yoongi.” Jaehyun replies with a smirk, sliding the finished drink towards Yoongi, “I guess you forgave Hoseok for sleeping with me when you two were fighting then.”

Woah wait what. Yoongi definitely didn’t know about that. What the fuck.

“I’m sorry

what?”

Yoongi asks sharply. He doesn’t even know why he’s continuing to talk to Jaehyun, but he couldn’t stop himself.

Jaehyun shrugs, “You know, when you found out what he did with me during his visit before the opening of this place, and you got really mad, Hoseok went out and we ran into each other, he practically

begged

me to touch him.”

Yoongi doesn’t say another word, just chugs the drink in front of him, before proceeding to take two more shots of vodka. “Fuck you.” he spats at Jaehyun before stumbling away to go confront Hoseok. 
 
“Baby what took you so long?” Hoseok asks when Yoongi approaches Hoseok and their friends.

“Don’t fucking ‘baby’ me.” He says coldly and Hoseok’s smile quickly drops from his face. The rest of the group looks confused, but Yoongi pays them no mind, he keeps his glare focused on Hoseok.

“What’s-” Hoseok starts but Yoongi cuts him off.

“You know I had a really interesting conversation with the bartender,” Yoongi starts but Hoseok isn’t following, “you want to know his name and what he told me?” Hoseok has a feeling he knows where this might be going, but it’s a stretch seeing as managers shouldn’t be bartending, so he keeps silent. Yoongi takes Hoseok’s silence as a cue to continue, “He told me the two of you fucked while we were fighting three months ago, his name is Jaehyun.

Ring a bell?”

He hears a couple gasps from his friends, and spots Jimin throwing the dirtiest glare he’s ever seen towards Hoseok.

“Yoongi I-”

Yoongi cuts him off again, “No

no

what happened to you telling me the whole truth huh? You just happened to leave out the part where you fucked your ex the night before we talked? That’s fucking sick Hoseok.”

“Listen, I was really hurt and really drunk and I didn’t know what I was doing. I didn’t plan on it, I promise Yoongi, I promise, please just don’t let that dick get into your head.” Hoseok rushes out before Yoongi can cut him off for a third time.

Yoongi scoffs, “You were hurt!?

You?

Do I have to remind you that

you

were the one that cheated on me on that stupid fucking business trip?

I

was hurt, so much, and while you were out drinking and hooking up with Jaehyun, I was at home crying and so fucking torn apart because of

you.”

The words stab at Hoseok’s heart, “I’m so sorry Yoongi please,

I love you.”

“Bull fucking shit,” Yoongi answers rolling his eyes, his words were slurring now due to the alcohol finally hitting him, “

You’re just the same stupid play boy you’ve always been, only looking for a quick fuck.

”

Ouch. “Yoongi that’s not fair, you know-”

“No Hoseok, I don’t know. I’m so done with you and your sob stories, find somewhere else to stay tonight.” Yoongi stumbles away, leaving Hoseok and their friends in disbelief.

“You really fucked up this time Hoseok. I hope you fucking know that.” Jimin says lowly before going to chase after Yoongi. 
 
Hoseok’s eyes drift to the bar and Jaehyun is staring back at him with the biggest smirk on his face. Hoseok was going to make him regret this.

“What the hell did you do!” Hoseok almost yells as he approaches Jaehyun at the bar.

“Just told the truth, unlike you apparently.” Jaehyun replies, smirk still covering his face. Hoseok wants to slap it off.

“Why are you always fucking up my life Jaehyun?”

Jaehyun just shrugs, “This one is on you. You should've been honest.”

“I probably just lost him for good you fucking asshole.”

“Like I said,

all on you.”

Unfortunately Hoseok knows that in this situation Jaehyun is right, and he doesn’t know what he is going to do about it. 
 
******
 
    “Why am I not enough for him?” Yoongi sobs into Jimin’s chest. As soon as Jimin had gotten Yoongi into his hotel room safe, Yoongi started crying and hasn’t stopped since. Right now, Jimin was sitting up against the headboard of the bed while Yoongi cried into his chest, tears soaking into Jimin’s silky shirt. Yoongi felt bad, but he couldn’t bring himself to stop. He didn’t know why Hoseok kept doing this, he thought things were fine, he thought they were fine. Was Yoongi expecting too much from Hoseok? Was he too clingy? Too needy? Yoongi doesn’t know, and his head is all fuzzy from the crying and alcohol.

“Hey, no, it’s not you Yoons,” Jimin says, running comforting fingers through Yoongi’s hair, “Hoseok is just an asshole and he can’t see what a beautiful, amazing, kind, wonderful person he has right in front of him.”

“I just…I don’t understand what Jaehyun has that I don’t.” Yoongi whispers after he’s cried all the tears he has left in his body.

“Don’t think like that, like I said Hoseok clearly doesn’t understand what he has right in front of him.”

“Maybe I really was just a good fuck for him,” Yoongi says, “he’s never even taken me out on a real date.”

Jimin sighs, “At some point you have to ask yourself if all of this hurt is worth it Yoongi. Is Hoseok worth it?”

“I love him,” Yoongi replies so quietly Jimin almost doesn’t catch it, “but I don’t think that’s enough.”

“How about we go back to Seoul tomorrow, you need space to think.”

“What about Taehyung and Jungkook?”

“They’ll understand.” Yoongi just nods in agreement, and Jimin reaches for his phone and immediately books the first flight to Seoul the next morning.

Yoongi doesn’t remember when he eventually passes out from exhaustion and the fact that he was still very drunk, but at some point he falls asleep with Jimin holding him close and his words,

Is Hoseok worth it?,

replaying in Yoongi’s mind.

----- CHAPTER BREAK -----

Week 1

It has been a week since Yoongi walked out on Hoseok in Tokyo, one week of complete radio silence from Yoongi. Hoseok tried calling and sending so many texts to Yoongi that he lost count, but after two days of no response he decided that he should give Yoongi space. Now Hoseok was back in Seoul, and as he sat in his empty apartment nothing felt right. The space was too big for him to be in alone, everything was clean to the point where it looked barely lived in, it was decorated with fancy pieces that meant nothing to him, and the skyline view of Seoul looked no longer beautiful, but dull instead. Hoseok felt completely alone, he lost the one person that made him feel happy, he had lost his world.

Hoseok had meant it when he told Yoongi he loved him that night; although, maybe that wasn’t the right time for a confession. When Yoongi looked at him like he was lying, it tore Hoseok’s heart in half. This was worse than when Jaehyun left him, he had felt like a piece of shit human being, but then again maybe he is. Yoongi’s hurt words kept echoing in his mind “

You’re just the same stupid play boy you’ve always been, only looking for a quick fuck.

” replying over and over. Maybe there is some truth to that statement, maybe Hoseok really is just a stupid play boy that’s incabable of being in a real, healthy relationship. He really doesn’t know anymore, he feels so lost. Suddenly his phone rings, ripping through the silence and pulling him out of his thoughts. He sees Jaehyun’s name flashing on the screen and groans. 
 
“What the hell do you want?” Hoseok grumbles when he answers the phone.

“You had me fired!” Jaehyun yells through the speaker.

Hoseok rolls his eyes even though Jaehyun can’t see him, “Not only that, I made sure you won’t be hired anywhere else. You know, like in America when they blackball people in Hollywood.”

“What is wrong with you?” Jaehyun is still yelling, “Do I need to remind you have much you

need

me.”

“I don’t need you Jaehyun.”

“Really? That’s why you come crawling to me everytime your little boyfriend walks out on you.”

“Listen,” Hoseok is speaking calmly, “I don’t need you, I never did. You were the biggest mistake I ever made. I’m done with you asshole. Don’t ever come near me or Yoongi ever again or I swear

you will regret it

.”

“You-” Jaehyun starts to yell, but Hoseok doesn’t give him a chance to continue. Instead, he hangs up the phone and blocks Jaehyun’s number.

He’s done with Jaehyun, the only thing that matters to him now is making things right with Yoongi. 
 
****
 
   For the past week, Yoongi has thrown himself into work. He started a new internship at a starting up music production company, so he found himself busy with no time to think about Hoseok during the day. When it came to night time though, things were a different story. He laid by himself in bed, missing the feeling of Hoseok’s arms wrapped around him, making him feel safe. It has only been a week, but it feels like an eternity. He drowned in his thoughts and insecurities in the dark until he eventually fell asleep due to exhaustion from the day every night almost like a routine.

Yoongi is insecure by nature, he always has been, he thinks that’s where all his neediness and clinginess comes from. He needs to be reassured, at least every once in a while, by his partner that he is enough and they aren’t getting bored with him. Hoseok had done a good job with that, well until now. Yoongi wonders if he was ever enough for Hoseok or if everything Hoseok had ever told him was a lie. Could you blame him? Hoseok had run back to Jaehyun not once, but

twice,

during their relationship and Yoongi couldn’t help but think Hoseok never actually cared about him, why else would he continuously break Yoongi’s heart? That night in Tokyo Hoseok had said that he was in love with Yoongi, but he really couldn’t bring himself to believe that.

Yoongi felt betrayed, and he’s still considering the words Jimin had said to him. Right now though, the pain Hoseok caused didn’t seem worth it, despite how much he wanted it to be.

It all hurt so much, too much.

****

Week 2

Two weeks, it has been two weeks since and Hoeseok had still heard nothing from Yoongi. Three hundred and thirty six hours, twenty thousand one hundred and sixty minutes, and fifty seconds, if he was to be exact. Not that Hoseok was counting or anything...well maybe he was. Some people might call it a borderline obsession, but Hoseok really just missed having Yoongi by his side. Nothing had gotten easier for him in two weeks, he couldn’t bring himself to focus on work at all, and he had probably slept a total of seven hours over the entirety of the two weeks.

Hoseok had only left the house to grab necessary groceries, but he wasn’t really eating that much anyways. Namjoon and Seokjin tried to come over and get him to take a walk outside for fresh air, or at least let them keep him company, but Hoseok had politely sent them away. He wanted to be alone, he felt he deserved to be alone. He fucked up big time, and now he had to pay for it. He was never one for romantics or anything, but when it comes to Yoongi, Hoseok thinks he found the love of his life. His soulmate. The man he was supposed to be with for the rest of his life. Clearly, nothing worked out that way, at least it didn’t seem like it would now.

He was smoking a lot more these days, he had quit for Yoongi but now that he was gone Hoseok felt like nothing mattered and just said fuck it; however, not even the cigarettes seems to be relieving any of the edge. Negative thoughts swarm Hoseok’s head day in and day out, and his guilt haunts him at night. Even though this is his fault, he’s cried more than he’s ever had in his entire life. Over the course of this second week, Hoseok is starting to feel like Yoongi gave up on him. Well, Hoseok couldn’t blame him.

He wonders how Yoongi is doing. Hoseok hopes that Yoongi isn’t alone and torn apart, he knows Yoongi has Jimin so at least he probably wasn’t completely alone. He hopes Yoongi is living his life, pursuing his music passion and not wasting his break from university distraught over Hoseok. Maybe thinking that Yoongi was torn apart over him was being selfish or egotistical, but he only hoped that throughout their time together Yoongi was as happy and in love as Hoseok had been even though now there was really no way to know. He just hoped that Yoongi was happy, or at least getting there, and not as miserable and hopeless and Hoseok felt right now.

Two weeks had passed and Yoongi was starting to feel better. He had established a regular routine of working during the week, and accompanying Jimin to the dance studio with Taehyung and Jungkook on the weekends. Jimin wasn’t practicing for anything in particular right now, he just wanted to make sure he kept up his form. Yoongi still thought about Hoseok every once in a while, but he’s shoved it to the back of his mind and he is learning to live with it. He’s as happy as he can be, and that’s all that he can wish for right now. He finds comfort in the time he spends with his friends, and he’s glad to have people like them in his life. He’s writing a lot more these days too. He’s worked on putting together a mixtape, just for fun, fiddling around with lyrics and beats in his makeshift home studio. Spending time on his music has been a really important outlet for him through this, and he finds himself rediscovering why he fell in love with it in the first place.

At the end of the first week, Yoongi had sat on his couch with Jimin and let out everything he was feeling. All the pent up frustration and hurt he had over Hoseok  was put out into the open, sober this time, and it felt freeing. That night, Yoongi and Jimin had decided this wouldn’t get in the way of him continuing with his life. He was going to make the most of his time he had off of university and he wouldn’t waste it away being heartbroken over Hoseok.

However, Yoongi still wondered how Hoseok was doing. He had left Yoongi dozens of texts and voicemails Yoongi hadn't brought himself to look at or listen to. He wondered if Hoseok was back to his old ways, if he was just out partying. Or maybe he had just thrown himself into work, forgetting about Yoongi. It was no secret that Hoseok worked too much. Maybe Hoseok had gone back to Jaehyun and they were happily fucking again, that was the trend with Hoseok right? He wonders if Hoseok would have ever come clean. Yoongi tries not to think about it too much, all those thoughts were no good for him anyways.

Yoongi doesn’t know if he’ll give Hoseok another chance. He’s put off that decision for now, choosing to focus on himself. He needed to learn that he didn’t have to depend on others to feel important, needed or loved. He had himself, and that should be enough. He doesn’t need Hoseok or anyone else to tell him that he’s special and worth it. Yoongi feels liberated with this kind of confidence. He doesn’t fall in love often, but when he does, it’s fast and deep. That was probably part of the problem, Yoongi thought. Hell he fell in love with a dude he fucked at a club one night. He fell in love with what should have been a one night stand. Nothing about the Hoseok Yoongi had met initially screamed ‘boyfriend material’, but something about him drew Yoongi in.

God what a mistake that had been.

****

One Month

One month passed and Hoseok finally snapped. He spent most of his days and nights drunk. He wasn’t going out, choosing to stay at home and wallow in his self guilt. His apartment was no longer clean, instead it was littered with burned out cigarettes and empty bottles beer and various liquors. It was disgusting actually, but Hoseok couldn’t bring himself to care. He didn’t work anymore, he had convinced his secretary to take care of all his business with the promise of a raise. Nothing was getting better, nothing was feeling right again, his life had just fallen apart in that one night in Tokyo. He ignored everyone now, his phone died a long time ago and he didn’t bother to recharge it again. Yoongi wasn’t coming back anyway, so what did it really matter? Hoseok just left himself to drown in sorrow and self guilt, it’s what he deserved anyways.

At some point after the one month mark, Seokjin and Namjoon decided enough was enough. Amidst the wedding planning and work, the two of them had talked and decided on a night for intervention because there was no way they could let himself live this way anymore. So, on said night, the two of them let themselves into Hoseok’s apartment, knowing that he wouldn’t answer if they knocked. That’s where they found Hoseok sitting on the floor, staring out into the Seoul skyline with a beer in his hand, surrounded by the mess of empty bottles and cigarettes he had created.

“Hobi…” Seokjin called, trying to get his attention. No answer. “Hobi,” he tried again.

“Hoseok damnit look at me!” Namjoon finally said with a slightly raised voice.

Hoseok turns his head to look at his friends, and the two of them can notice the dark circles under his eyes from lack of sleep. “What do you want?” He responds finally, voice sounding rough from crying.

“You can’t live like this..”Seokjin says carefully, as him and Namjoon sit carefully on either side of Hoseok.

“Who says?” Hoseok asks quietly, turning his gaze to the floor, “He isn’t coming back to me...he’s gone.”

“Yoongi wouldn’t want to see you like this.” Namjoon reasons.

Hoseok shrugs, “He doesn’t want to see me at all.”

Namjoon sighs, “ Hoseok, you need to get yourself together, if you ever want a chance of speaking with him and making things right it can’t be like this. You can’t be like this.”

Hoseok is silent.

“Look Hobi,” Seokjin starts placing a comforting hand on Hoseok’s shoulder, “There is nothing in me that believes that Yoongi doesn’t love you as much as you love me. I mean he fucking jerked you off while we were all in the room.

That’s a little excessive for
someone who doesn’t care about you, and the way he looks at you is the same way I look at Joonie and look where we are.”

Hoseok’s head snaps up, “You knew about that!?”

Seokjin chuckles, “I know you, and you’re not as subtle as you think you are,” Hoseok’s face turns red at that, “anyways that’s not the point. The point is, that boy cares for you so deeply, that’s why what you did hurt him so much. Just wait a little longer, I’m sure you two will get a chance to talk soon.”

“You think so?” Hoseok asks with a glimmer of hope in his eyes.

“We know so,” Namjoon replies, “but that can’t happen with you reeking of cigarette smoke and alcohol. Now come on, let’s get you and this place cleaned up.”

That night, the three of them spend the night cleaning up Hoseok’s apartment. After that, Hoseok unloads everything he’s been feeling for the past month while Namjoon and Seokjin quietly listen. The two of them stay until Hoseok is asleep in his bed, comfortable and safe.

For the first time that month, Hoseok feels some content and has a little hope that things could get better.

****

One month in Yoongi breaks. It’s late, he’s sitting up alone in bed and he finally decides to listen to and read everything Hoseok had sent him. Listening to Hoseok sounding so broken and guilty pulls at Yoongi’s heart, before he knows it everything he’s been pushing back in his mind spills out and suddenly he’s crying.

Yoongi decides he can’t take this anymore, he can’t take being apart from Hoseok. He needs to talk this through with him, he needs to work on making things better. Obviously, things wouldn't just be fixed but he wanted to try one more time. He wanted to work on their relationship, he wanted to get to a place where he could

fully

trust and be happy with Hoseok. He meant too much for Yoongi to just let him go. Yoongi had finally found  the answer to Jimin’s question: Hoseok is worth it, he is

so

worth it.

With his newfound revelation, Yoongi shakily types out a text to Hoseok.

Hoseok, I read and listened to everything you sent. I know it’s been so long, but please let’s talk. I understand if you’re done with me, but I just need to talk this out with you. I can’t take this anymore. If you can, please meet me at our diner for dinner at seven. I hope you make it- Yoongi.

It was a start.

----- CHAPTER BREAK -----

Hoseok found himself waking up when the sun was shining high through the curtains. For the first time in the past month, he had finally gotten a full night’s rest, he was so exhausted that when he woke up he noticed it was already three in the afternoon. He turned to look at his now fully charged phone, expecting a ton of missed business calls and emails, but he wasn’t expecting the first message he saw to be Yoongi. 
 
The text read:

Hoseok, I read and listened to everything you sent. I know it’s been so long, but please let’s talk. I understand if you’re done with me, but I just need to talk this out with you. I can’t take this anymore. If you can, please meet me at our diner for dinner at seven. I hope you make it- Yoongi.

Still in a sleepy haze, Hoseok had to rub at his eyes to make sure he wasn’t hallucinating, but sure enough the message was there, and it was real.  It took five minutes of Hoseok writing and rewriting a reply back, but eventually he settles with a simple,

I’ll be there.

****

Hoseok’s reply comes while Yoongi is still at work, it’s a simple message stating he’ll make it but Yoongi still found his heart fluttering. He was nervous, but he knew he needed to do this. This conversation needed to happen for the both of them. Yoongi was happy with Hoseok, he was in love with him and he didn’t want to let him go. Even if Hoseok was only showing up to say that he was done with Yoongi, at least he would know that he tried and that was better than the alternative.

The rest of the day passes by agonizingly slow, but eventually seven rolls around and Yoongi finds himself sitting at their usual spot at the diner. When Hoseok shows up a few minutes later, Yoongi’s heart stops. It was obvious that the younger hadn’t been getting much sleep, and Yoongi thought he could smell the faint scent of cigarettes under Hoseok’s cologne. Even so, Yoongi hadn’t realized how much he missed Hoseok until he was sitting right across from him. There’s an awkward silence following the waitress coming over to take their orders. Yoongi knows he asked Hoseok to come here but he couldn’t find any words to begin, it was like his voice was gone. The silence wasn’t comfortable either, it was heavy and Yoongi wanted one of them to just say something already. 
 
Finally, after a few more minutes, Hoseok decides to break the silence, “What have you been up to these days?” he asks, feeling that a simple ice breaker is safe.

“Um well,” Yoongi starts, not having expected the question, “I got an internship at a new production company, it’s small but I like the work I do there, and from time to time they let me use one of the studios. I’ve also been hanging around Jimin’s dance studio with Taehyung and Jungkook. I guess you can say I’ve been keeping busy.”

“That’s good,” Hoseok replies, then quietly adds, “I’m glad you’ve been happy.”

Yoongi sighs, “I’ve been busy, yes, happy not so much.”

Hoseok doesn’t know how to respond to that, so he stays silent and averts his eyes down to the table. Yoongi decides to take the silence as an opportunity to start their much needed conversation.

It’s now or never.

“Look Hoseok, when I found out what you did I felt so betrayed and hurt, especially because I thought you told me everything and I had just put my full trust back in you. It made me feel so foolish and stupid, I thought I wasn’t enough for you. What is worse is that I had to find out from Jaehyun and not you.”

“I’m so sor-” Hoseok starts to say but Yoongi stops him.

“Please just listen to me,” he says and Hoseok nods, “I realized a lot this past month. As much as I tried to pretend I could move on from you, I realized that I couldn’t. I love you, so much, and that’s why that night in Tokyo hurt as much as it did. I want to try this one more time, I want to really work with you. I want to be with you Hoseok, but we can’t do that if you continue to act the way you have and keep things from me. I don’t know how you do it Hoseok, I don’t know how you keep me so drawn to you. How do you do it?” The last part comes out as more of a question to himself.

“Yoongi I- fuck I don’t know where to start,” Hoseok says, returning his gaze to Yoongi, “this past month has been absolute hell without you. I knew I loved you, I meant it when I said it that night in Tokyo, but when you were gone it hit me just how much I need you in my life. I’m willing to do absolutely whatever it takes to have you back. I can’t lose you again, I absolutely can’t. And I feel like absolute shit and so so guilty about lying and everything I’ve done. I’ve only hurt you, and that’s not right. I’m so sorry, for everything.” The words rush out of Hoseok’s mouth, and it feels good to get out into the open.

“You know you’ve never actually taken me out on a date.” Yoongi says quietly.

Hoseok feels a pang in his heart, “I’m sorry baby.”

“It’s okay.”

“It’s not.”

“It will be.”

And Yoongi really believed that, he believed one day they would be okay.

******

After a vague message from Hoseok telling him to meet him dressed comfortably, Yoongi found himself by the Han river on a comfortably warm summer night. He was looking for the spot Hoseok mentioned, and when he did his eyes went wide. Hoseok was sitting on a blanket spread on the grass with a bottle of wine and a picnic basket.

“What is all this?” Yoongi asked in surprise as he sat down next to Hoseok.

“Welcome to our official first date,” Hoseok answers with a smile, “is it okay?”

“It’s more than okay Hobi, I love it.” Yoongi says placing a quick kiss on Hoseok’s lips.

The two of them sat in comfortable silence for a while, eating some snacks Hoseok had brought, and nursing glasses of wine. It was perfect, Yoongi felt so at ease and comfortable with Hoseok, he had missed this feeling so much. A question still itched at his mind though, he figured now was probably as good as any time to ask it.

“Is there anything else I should know?” Yoongi asks, breaking the silence.

“About what?” Hoseok asks.

Yoongi sighs, swirling the glass around in his hand instead of looking at Hoseok, “You know, just anything in general.”

Oh.

It finally clicked with Hoseok, “No, there isn’t. You know everything. When we were...not talking for that month, I didn’t really leave the house. I didn’t party or hookup with anyone. There’s nothing else I did before than either. You know everything. I promise.”

Yoongi hums, choosing not to say anything else. He could tell Hoseok was being sincere so he didn’t push the topic any further.

The rest of the night was spent with the two of them cuddled together on the blanket, staring up at the stars. They talked about everything and nothing at all, occasional silences filled the air but they weren’t awkward, they were nice. This was the best night Yoongi could ever ask for considering everything they’ve been through.

“By the way,” Hoseok spoke up during one of the breaks of silence, “you are enough for me. Way more than enough, you always have been. I don’t deserve you.”

“I love you Hoseok.”

“I love you too Yoongi.”

*****

“So you two made up?” Jimin asks over lunch the next day.

Yoongi nods, “Yeah, we’re working on things. He’s worth it Jiminie.”

“I only ever want you to be happy Yoons, and if he makes you happy then I’m happy for you.” Jimin replies with a smile, “Now tell me all about this date.”

Yoongi goes on to tell Jimin about the Han river and how he spent the night with Hoseok looking at the stars talking and laughing and just being in each other’s presence. He tells him how he’s never felt more content, and that he can tell Hoseok is really trying already.

“That sounds really nice, you sound really happy.” Jimin says, noticing the way Yoongi’s eyes light up when he talks.

“I really think I am this time.”

Yoongi really means it. He can feel that this is the start of things finally working out. Of course, they have a lot of work to do in terms of building trust, but Yoongi is willing to do it because Hoseok is worth the effort. Yoongi is a firm believer that the good things in life never come without working for them, and Hoseok is no exception. The two of them didn’t meet under ideal circumstances and if you would’ve told Yoongi six months ago where he would be now he would have laughed. Honestly though, Yoongi wouldn’t have had things any other way because despite all the pain he had still found the man he was in love with. Yoongi felt like he was meant to meet Hoseok, he felt like he was meant to spend the rest of his life with him. He knows love never comes easy, maybe that’s what makes Hoseok feel all the more worth fighting for. It wasn’t supposed to be easy, and despite all their bumps in the road, now he could feel that Hoseok really wanted to try and that he was trying.

Right now, that’s all he could ask for.

----- CHAPTER BREAK -----

Yoongi was moving slowly with Hoseok, easing himself back into their relationship. That means as far as intimacy is concerned, the two of them held hands and shared quick kisses but nothing too heated. On one hand, it was really nice because Yoongi felt like him and Hoseok were finally moving at a pace that is good for them, and lust wasn’t clouding their minds, the two of them were just simply learning about each other all over again. Which is great, but to be completely honest Yoongi is starting to feel touch starved. He misses the feeling of Hoseok’s hands and lips exploring his body, and you know...other things. The idea to keep this agonizingly slow pace was Hoseok’s, and while Yoongi appreciated the sentiment, he doesn’t know how much longer he can take it. They didn’t even sleep in the same bed together, Yoongi spent most of his freetime at Hoseok’s apartment, but he always went home in the end. If anything, Yoongi at least just wanted to be cuddled and wake up next to his boyfriend. Maybe it was just Yoongi’s hormones talking because he hasn’t been able to get off for almost two months, but nonetheless he just wanted Hoseok to fuck him already or at least blow him. Could you really blame him?
 
“Baby?” he hears Hoseok ask, pulling him out of his thoughts. He was currently at Hoseok’s place, watching some random k-drama neither of them had been particularly paying attention to.

“Huh?”

“I asked when you were going to head out tonight.” Despite not really wanting the older to leave, Hoseok thought it was probably best.

Yoongi hesitates before deciding to respond, “What if I stayed...it’s okay if you say no, I just miss sleeping next to you Hobi.”

Hoseok smiles softly, unable to resist Yoongi, “Okay, yeah. I miss sleeping next to you too.” 
 
A few hours later, Hoseok had Yoongi pulled tightly against his side, with Yoongi laying his head on Hoseok’s chest while he lightly ran his fingers through Yoongi’s hair. It was comforting, and Yoongi felt safe again. He swears he never wants to lose Hoseok ever again. 
 
“Hobi?” Yoongi calls quietly.

“Yeah?”

“Promise I’ll never lose you again,” Yoongi doesn't know what makes him bring it up.

“You’ll never lose me

ever

again baby, I promise. I can’t live without you.” Hoseok replies, and he means all of it. 
 
They stay silent after that, Hoseok lightly playing with his hair makes Yoongi submit to sleep shortly after, he faintly hears Hoseok whispering an

I love you

before he drifts off.
 
*****

The next morning, Yoongi wakes up before Hoseok. He takes a moment to register his surroundings, and take in the view of the beautiful man sleeping next to him. He admires Hoseok for a few moments until he realizes he has a little problem. Yoongi had woken up hard. It was a weekend, he doesn’t have to work so it’s not like he can make up an excuse to leave and go take care of himself, and he certainly wasn’t going to go take

care of it in Hoseok’s bathroom. He tries to will it away by not thinking about it, but nothing works. Soon enough, Hoseok is stirring awake next to him.

“Good morning love,” Hoseok says when he opens his eyes, his voice is rough from having just woke up and

god that doesn’t help Yoongi at all.

“Good morning.” Yoongi replies, and Hoseok pulls him into a lazy kiss. His thigh brushes against Yoongi’s erection on accident and Yoongi fucking

whimpers.

“I-I’m sorry, I know you wanted to take it slow, and no sex and all that I-” Yoongi starts to rush out when they part, but Hoseok quiets him with another kiss.

“It was a stupid idea anyways,” Hoseok whispers against Yoongi’s lips.

“Really?” Yoongi asks, a little breathless.

“Really.” Hoseok confirms.

That’s all it takes for Yoongi to climb on top of Hoseok, straddling his lap, and connect their lips in a more heated kiss. Hoseok rolls his hips up, giving Yoongi friction where he needs it most, and he lets out a moan that allows Hoseok’s tongue to start exploring Yoongi’s mouth. After a few minutes of making out and Yoongi desperately rolling his hips down, he decides it’s not enough. He needs Hoseok’s mouth elsewhere.

“Seok-ah,” Yoongi whines into the kiss, “need more,

please.”

How could Hoseook deny that? “Shh baby, I got you. I’ll take care of you.”

Hoseok flips the two of them so Yoongi is laying against the mattress, and Hoseok moves his lips to press open mouthed kisses along Yoongi's neck. He stops to suck a mark when he finds that one sensitive spot and it has Yoongi a whining mess already, which should be embarrassing but Yoongi can’t bring himself to care right now. Hoseok pushes Yoongi’s shirt up to trail kisses down his torso until he reaches the waistband of Yoongi’s sweats. He pauses, and Yoongi doesn’t like it.

“Please,” he whispers, sounding wrecked already.

“Tell me what you want kitten,” Hoseok says as he toys with the waistband. Yoongi doesn’t have to look at him to know there’s a smirk on his face.

“Want your mouth Seok.”

“Where?”

God Hoseok was being such a tease.

“On my dick, I want your mouth on my dick. There, is that what you want?” Yoongi was achingly hard at this point, his dick was leaking precome and he was getting impatient.

Hoseok chuckles, “Okay baby, I got you.”

Suddenly, Hoseok is pulling Yoongi’s sweats and underwear down in one go and Yoongi’s erection is exposed. Hoseok kisses and caresses Yoongi’s thighs, leaving marks and getting close to where Yoongi needs him the most painfully slow. When Hoseok finally envelops the tip into his mouth Yoongi lets out a moan, it feels

so good after so long.

He wastes no time taking all of Yoongi into his mouth, and Yoongi’s hips buck up involuntarily which causes Hoseok to push him down. Hoseok bobs his head up and down, setting a quick pace that has Yoongi falling apart under him.  He’s getting close so quickly. 
 
Yoongi threads his hands into Hoseok’s hair and tugs, “Fuck

hyung.

” He moans and

wow that’s new

, but Hoseok can’t deny he loves it. It’s not long before Hoseok is jerking himself off while working on Yoongi and they both are riding out their orgasms. Once Hoseok is sure Yoongi is finished, he swallows and pulls off of Yoongi.
 
“Fuck I missed that so much.” Yoongi says breathless when Hoseok plops himself back next to Yoongi.

“Are we gonna talk about you calling me hyung?” Hoseok asks.

Yoongi’s face goes beat red, “Oh..uh..I’m sorry it just kind of slipped out I don’t know why I did that.”

Hoseok plants a kiss on Yoongi’s forehead, “Relax baby, I thought it was hot and I am certainly not opposed to you doing it again.”

Yoongi is about to reply when he hears his phone go off. He rolls over to pick it up and swears when he sees the reminder on his screen, they were supposed to go taste wedding cakes with Taehyung, Namjoon, Seokjin and the others today but now they were going to be late.

“Shit, Hobi we’re going to be late. We need to get up now.” Yoongi says jumping out of bed.

It takes a moment, but Hoseok finally gets it, “Let’s shower, you can borrow clothes from me.”

Yoongi nods, “Fine, but no messing around in the shower got it.”

Hoseok laughs, “Yes sir!”
 
****
 
“You’re late,” Taehyung whispers to Hoseok as him and Yoongi quickly take seats next to the others.

“I’m sorry, but

someone

got a little needy this morning.” Hoseok replies with a smile.

Taehyung just fakes a gag, “You two are gross.”

Hoseok chuckles, “Funny for you to say when I noticed Jungkook couldn’t even walk straight today.”

Before Taehyung can shoot back a reply, the first cake is being set out for them to try.

It’s a long day of cake tasting but eventually Namjoon and Seokjin settle on a pink champagne cake, which the others think fit them a lot. It’s classy, and a bit sweet, just like the couple. At the end of the afternoon, Namjoon brings up that they hadn’t all hung out in a while and invites the other five boys over for a light dinner. Everyone quickly agrees, and soon enough they are all hanging out around a bonfire in Namjoon and Seokjin’s spacious backyard after eating a light dinner.  They all have a beer in their hand, aside from Hoseok who had decided it would be best to stay away from drinking for a while, and it was nice. Hoseok felt like his life was falling into place again with Yoongi curled at his side, and the rest of his friends surrounding him.

Taehyung was currently talking about how much fun he was having with wedding planning when Seokjin spoke up saying, “We’ve finally decided on a date!”

Yoongi’s eyes went wide with excitement, “What is it!?”

“August 15th,” Namjoon says with a smile.

“That’s so soon! It’s only like two ish months from now!” Jimin says shocked.

Seokjin nods, “We decided we didn’t want to drag this whole process out. We love each other, we want to be with each other for the rest of our lives, why drag out the process of marriage? We don’t want too much of an extravagant wedding either, so it’s the perfect amount of time.”

“I’m really happy for you guys,” Yoongi says with a smile and the rest of the boys follow with words of agreement.

Maybe Yoongi and Hoseok would be like that one day. Maybe not soon, but Yoongi knows he doesn’t want to be with anyone else. He hopes Hoseok feels the same way too.

****

“Hobi can we talk?” Yoongi whispers. The two of them were cuddling after mindblowing sex that had taken place twenty minutes before, after they had gotten back to Hoseok’s place from being with their friends all night.

“What is it baby?” Hoseok asks.

“I just...are we moving too fast for you?”

“No not at all, why would you think that?” Hoseok asks, moving to look down at Yoongi.

“Well you know, you but the whole no sex rule in place, and we broke that and I don’t know I guess I just wanted to make sure we were still on the same page with what we want from each other.” Yoongi explains quietly.

“Hey Yoongi look at me,” Hoseok says, moving Yoongi to look into his eyes, “I want you, all of you. It’s not just sex, I’m serious about you in every way. I could spend the rest of my life with you Yoongi. I love you, every part of you.”

“I love you too Hoseok, every part of you, I feel the same way.”

Hoseok places a kiss on Yoongi’s forehead, “Good, this is progress yeah?”

“Yes, a lot of progress.” Yoongi replies, “I’m happy Hoseok.

“Me too baby,” Hoseok whispers, stroking Yoongi’s back, “me too.”

****

“So what is this about?” Jimin asks. Hoseok had gathered Jimin and Jungkook together on his work break, with Taehyung of course because the three of them were almost never separated, with the promise of buying coffee.

“Why isn’t Yoongi hyung here?” Jungkook asks.

“Well it’s about Yoongi hyung actually,” Hoseok starts, “I uh...I want to ask him to move in with me, but I don’t want to think we’re moving too fast or anything and I wanted to ask your opinions.”

Taehyung shrugs, “He’s basically living at your place at this point anyways.”

Jimin still looks skeptical though, “You’re sure this is what you want, you’re sure Yoongi is what you want?”

“More than anything,” Hoseok replies, “we’ve been doing really well and having a lot of good conversations lately. I just want him near all the time. I’m ready for this, I just don’t know if he will be too.”

“Well you’ve said that you’re communicating well lately right? The worst he could say is no, and you understand and respect his boundaries and then you two move on to this step when you’re both ready.” Jungkook responds thoughtfully, Taehyung hums in agreement.

“Look hyung,” Jimin starts, “I’ve always been wary of you, but I can tell you’re really serious about this. If you want my opinion, I think he’ll be more than happy to move in with you, but just like Jungkookie said, if he isn’t it’s fine. It won't break you two, you’ve been through much worse right?”

Hoseok nods, “Yeah you’re right. How do you think I should ask him?”

“You know he’s a sucker for romantics,” Jimin answers, “plan a nice dinner at your place and ask him then.”

“You’ve got this hyung.” Taehyung encourages.

Hoseok smiles, “Thank you guys. I really appreciate you.”

“Just keep making him happy, hyung.” Jimin responds and Hoseok plans to live up to Jimin’s request.

****

That night, Hoseok had made dinner and laid it out on his dining room table which he rarely ever used. He lit a few candles and placed a vase of white roses, Yoongi’s favorite, in the center. He kept adjusting things out of nervousness until he heard Yoongi letting himself in.

“Hobi what’s all this?” Yoongi says in shock as he greets Hoseok with a quick kiss.

“Just wanted to do something special for you baby, you’ve been working so hard at your internship.” Hoseok responds with a smile.

The two of them sit down, and talk about their days. When there’s a lapse in conversation, Hoseok finally decides to go for it.

“Actually, there’s something I wanted to ask you tonight.” Hoseok says quietly.

Yoongi raises a brow, “What is it?”

“What do you think about moving in with me?” Hoseok asks.

Yoongi’s jaw drops, “Really?

“I totally understand if it’s moving too fast for you or if you’re not comfortable, we can forget I ever said anything. I just thought since you’re here all the time, it would make sense right? I don’t want to spend another night without you baby, plus this apartment is way too big for just me.” Hoseok rushes out in response.

Yoongi smiles, “I would love to move in with you Hobi.”

“Really?!”

“Really.”

Hoseok interlaces his fingers with Yoongi’s across the table, “I am so happy.”

“Me too,” Yoongi replies, “you make me the happiest.”

Despite it being a big step, Yoongi felt like he was ready. The two of them had been through so much, this could be beneficial for them. Plus, as Hoseok had mentioned, he was there almost all the time anyways. This felt like the right step to take, and Yoongi was so excited. Nothing,

nothing,

would tear him away from Hoseok ever again.

----- CHAPTER BREAK -----

“Hyung?” Jimin calls. He was with Yoongi, helping pack his things to move to Hoseok’s apartment, it had been silent mostly, but something was bothering Jimin and couldn’t bear being silent any longer.

“What’s wrong Min?” Yoongi asks, noticing Jimin’s expression.

“I-actually it’s nothing, it’s stupid.”

Yoongi walks away from the box he’s packing and moves to sit next to Jimin on the floor, “It’s not stupid if it’s bothering you Jiminie, tell me what’s up.”

Jimin sighs, “It’s about Tae and Kook,” he starts, “I just...I feel like maybe I intruded on their relationship.”

“Why do you think that?”

“I don’t know...I guess this is all so new and confusing. They were doing just fine without me, sometimes I feel like I’m third wheeling. It’s not anything they did really, just my own insecurities I guess.”

Yoongi gives a comforting smile, “Jimin those two love you more than anything, and like you said this is new, to all three of you. Poly relationships can be hard to navigate sometimes, but it’s important that you communicate with each other. You need to talk to them how you're feeling.”

“What would I do without you hyung?” Jimin asks, returning Yoongi’s smile.

Yoongi shrugs, “You’d be a mess probably.”

“Hey! I would not!” Jimin says, playfully hitting Yoongi’s arm.

Yoongi holds his hands up in mock surrender, “I’m kidding, I’m kidding,” he replies with a laugh, “seriously though, you should talk to them. In fact, go right now. I can finish this up for tonight.”

“Are you sure?”

“Yes Min, go.”

“Thank you hyung.”

****
 
  As per Yoongi’s advice, Jimin went back home right away. He spent the entire car ride thinking about how he was going to bring this up to his boyfriends, but only ended up stressed to the point of wanting to pull his hair out in the end. When he walked into their shared apartment, Jimin was immediately greeted by his boyfriends on the couch, Jungkook straddling Taehyung and the two of them were engaged in a heated make out session. Maybe this was a bad time, Jimin didn’t know what to do so he stood awkwardly in the doorway watching, which was probably a little creepy, but he didn’t want to interrupt. It wasn’t until Taehyung moved to press open mouthed kisses down Jungkook’s neck that he noticed Jimin standing there. 
 
“Looks like we have an audience,” Jimin hears Jungkook whisper in Taehyung’s ear.

Taehyung stops what he’s doing and looks behind him, his lips are slightly swollen from kissing and his hair is messy, probably from Jungkook pulling at it, and he smiles at Jimin, “Jiminie, care to join us?” he says. His voice is raspy and

god Jimin really wants to,

but he doesn’t let out his feelings now, he never will and that will only be worse for them in the long run.

“Um...actually, I wanted to talk to you guys about something,” Jimin says quietly, the younger two almost don’t hear him.

Noticing Jimin’s demeanor, Jungkook pulls himself off of Taehyung and pats the seat next to him, “Okay hyung, come sit let’s talk.”

Hesitantly, Jimin moves to take the seat next to Jungkook, he pulls his knees up to his chest, and sits against the arm rest so he’s facing the other two.

Taehyung reaches over and takes Jimin’s hand in his, “What’s wrong Jiminie, you look upset.”

Jimin sighs,

now or never,

“I...okay uh...I just kind of feel like I intruded in you and Kookie’s relationship.”

Jungkook’s brows furrowed in confusion, “What do you mean hyung, why would you say that?”

Jimin looks down into his lap where his and Taehyung’s hands were intertwined, “I don’t know, I mean you two were just fine before I came into the picture. Sometimes I just feel like I ruined things.”

“Did we do something to make you feel that way?” Jungkook asks.

Jimin shakes his head, “No, I think I’ve just been getting into my own head.” his voice was starting to waver now, and he felt a tear slide down his cheek. He doesn’t even know why he’s crying right now.

“Hey Minnie don’t cry,” Taehyung says and brushes the tear from his cheek, “We love you

so much

and sure Jungkook and I were together before you, but that doesn’t mean anything. You mean the world to Jungkookie and I, we wouldn’t have this any other way.”

Jungkook leans in and places a kiss on Jimin’s cheek, “I love you just as much as I love Taehyungie, you didn’t ‘intrude’ you mean so much to me hyung, you always have and you always will.”

Jimin smiles, finally meeting his two boyfriend’s eyes, “I love you guys too, so much, thank you for this.”

“No need to thank us Minnie, communication is important, especially in relationships like this yeah? We’re still learning.” Taehyung says with a soft smile.

“Yeah, we are.” Jimin agrees and then adds, “Sorry I uh kinda killed your mood when I walked in,” with a small laugh.

“You didn’t hyung, why don’t we show you how much we love you hm?” Jungkook suggests.  Jimin just nods and Jungkook is kissing Jimin, slowly and passionately. When he pulls away, Taehyung leans over and does the same thing. 
 
That night, Jimin comes with Taehyung inside of him, and Jungkook riding him. It’s some of the best sex he’s ever had, with his two boyfriends taking their time on him, making sure to remind Jimin how much they love him and how beautiful and amazing he is. It’s incredibly soft, and just what Jimin needed. This was definitely not where he ever thought he’d end up in his life, but he wouldn’t ever have it any other way.
 
*****

Planning a wedding is stressful, especially for perfectionist Kim Seokjin. As a doctor, Seokjin has to be perfect, his career depends on it, and at some point that perfectionism just spilled into his daily life. So now, even though the wedding wasn’t supposed to be too extravagant, he found himself stressing over flowers and a color scheme. Everything had to be perfect, he didn’t want to disappoint Namjoon by choosing something he didn’t like, even though Namjoon had stated many times that he would love anything Seokjin chose. However, Seokjin was still currently stressing over choosing between a black and gold color scheme, 0r an ocean blue and white color scheme, and consequently which flowers would match.

That’s how he ended up where he is now, sitting across from Taehyung at his kitchen table staring at a short pros and cons list for each color scheme. The list goes as follows, Black and Gold Pros: classy, easy to coordinate outfits; Cons: also the color scheme for every new years eve party ever. Ocean Blue and White Pros: fitting for the season, pretty, easy to match flowers; Cons: we aren’t having a beach wedding, what if Namjoon hates blue. He looks back and forth between each list, not knowing what to do.

“Seokjin come on, Namjoon will love both of them. Personally I think the ocean blue and white blue is really pretty, and with that we can get Camellia and Japanese Anemone flowers.” Taehyung says.

“What if Joonie doesn’t like those flowers.” Seokjin says, worry filling his eyes.

Taehyung sighs, pushing the lists out of the way, “Are you sure this is just about colors and flowers?”

Seokjin hesitates before responding, “I don’t know, I guess I’m just nervous. This is a big step for both of us. It’s a whole new chapter of our lives.”

Taehyung smiles, “I know hyung, but it’s a step you’re both ready for yeah? You love each other so much, aren’t you excited to start a new beginning with Joon hyung?”

Seokjin nods, “Of course, it’s just...I always want to keep him happy. My biggest fear is not being able to make him happy anymore.”

“I know, but you’ll always make him happy okay? He is absolutely enamoured with you, there’s no way you could disappoint him.”

Now it’s Seokjin’s turn to smile, “You’re right Tae. When did you become so wise?”

Taehyung chuckles, “I’m just speaking the truth.”

“Right, okay then, ocean blue and white it is with the camellias and japanese anemones.” Seokjin states.

Taehyung claps his hands together, “Perfect! This wedding is going to be amazing, I promise.”

*****

Today was the day Yoongi was finally moving his things into Hoseok’s apartment. After a dramatic goodbye to his crappy studio apartment, he was finally at Hoseok’s place, unpacking the last of his clothes into the closet in their new shared bedroom.

“Baby,” Hoseok says, catching Yoongi’s attention by sliding his arms around the older’s waist as he hangs up a jacket.

“What is it Hobi?” Yoongi asks, turning around in Hoseok’s grasp to look him in the eyes.

“I wanted to show you something, come follow me.” Hoseok replies, moving to grab onto Yoongi’s hand. Yoongi follows Hoseok who leads him to a room on the other side of the apartment. When Hoseok opens the door, Yoongi sees the room is soundproof, with a desk in the center against the wall, and a computer monitor and speaker set up. There’s a keyboard and a microphone in the room as well.

“What is all this?” Yoongi asks quietly.

“Well, this is Taehyung’s old room, and I had no use for it so I figured that I would set up a little home studio for you since I know you like to write and produce music. It’s not much, but I hope you like it, I even had it soundproofed.” Hoseok explains with a smile.

Yoongi places a kiss on Hoseok’s lips, “I love it, thank you so much Hobi.”

“I want you to know this place is as much yours as it is mine. I’m so happy to have you living here with me baby.”

“Thank you, for everything, really,” Yoongi replies, “I love you so much.”

“I love you too hyung.”

If you would’ve told Yoongi at the beginning of this year that he would be here right now, moving in with a guy he hooked up with at a club, Yoongi would have laughed. None of this was in his plan, but then again Yoongi wasn’t much of a plan out his life kind of guy anyways. Even though their relationship has been rocky, and full of complications and hurt Yoongi was absolutely sure now that he wouldn’t trade it for anything. In fact, if he was given the choice to go back he would do it all over again. He was finally in a spot with Hoseok where he felt happy and loved, and they were communicating well and everything was okay. Yoongi could tell this would last. If Hoseok got down on one knee and proposed to him right here, right now, he would probably say yes. They’ll get there some day, but for now this is more than enough.

----- CHAPTER BREAK -----

Kim Namjoon doesn’t get nervous. He used to, when he first started working as a lawyer but he soon grew out of that. It has been years since Namjoon has felt even close to nervous, he presents his cases flawlessly and with ease, it’s a big reason why he’s such a sought out lawyer. He always wins, and his ability to present a case with no nerves whatsoever is unmatched. Today was different though, today Namjoon is nervous. He isn’t presenting a case, no today is much bigger, today is the day he is getting married. Namjoon always knew he would marry Seokjin, about one year into their relationship he knew he didn’t want anyone else for the rest of his life.

The beginning of their relationship had been rough. With Seokjin being a surgeon and Namjoon working as a lawyer, the two of their schedules were quite busy and that meant they had to learn how to plan time to see each other. This is what had caused most of the problems in the beginning of their relationship, but once they got the hang of it Namjoon fell in love fast and quick. Seokjin was all Namjoon knows he needs in life, no matter what happens if Seokjin is there, life is okay. Now he is getting married, and everything is going to be official,

till death do us part.

Namjon wasn’t having second thoughts, of course not, he was just nervous. He wanted everything about this day to be perfect, he wanted to look perfect. Marriage is a big, significant, life step and Namjoon just wants everything to go smoothly. He’s probably read through his vows more than a hundred times just to make sure he gets them right and doesn’t stumble over his words. It’s funny, Namjoon thinks, it’s funny that he can speak in front of a courtroom full of people flawlessly but when it comes to Seokjin he is a flustered wreck. Maybe that’s just what love does. Either way, today is going to be perfect, it

has

to be perfect. Namjoon may be nervous, but he tries his best to just push it down.

He knows this is right, he knows Seokjin is right. Yes, he is nervous, but he is also excited. Namjoon knows he wants this, he has for a very long time; to quote Hoseok when they announced their engagement to their friends,

it’s about time.

****

Kim Seokjin has never been more content in his life, which is funny because today is one of the biggest days of his entire life. Today is his wedding day, and after three months of stressing over planning, Seokjin felt calm. He was about thirty minutes away from marrying the man he was going to be with for the rest of his life, anyone else would probably be overcome with nerves, but not Seokjin.

Seokjin is a simple person, if something feels right he goes with it and ultimately doesn’t spend much time being dissatisfied with his choices, he doesn’t like to have regrets. He’s a lot like Taehyung in that respect, which is probably one of the reasons the two of them get along so well. Namjoon felt right, so Seokjin went for it, and it didn’t take long before he knew that he wanted to spend the rest of his life with Namjoon. If Seokjin was honest, he didn’t know why it took him so long to propose, but none of that matters now because he is thirty minutes away from marrying the love of his life.

This is a really big life step for both of them, and Seokjin only hopes Namjoon isn’t somewhere stressing himself out. Seokjin has never seen Namjoon nervous, but he knows Namjoon and he knows he’s probably nervous right now. Seokjin can’t wait until the official ceremony is over and he can hold Namjoon and calm him down. In fact, Seokjin just can’t wait in general because he’s wanted this for

so long

and it’s finally happening.

He is excited, he is content. Looking at the clock his heart does a little flip,

fifteen minutes to go.

  “Do I look okay?” Yoongi asks, turning himself to face Hoseok. He was dressed in a black tux with an ocean blue bow tie to match his friend’s wedding colors. His honey blonde hair was styled so that he had a bit of forehead exposed, Hoseok thought he looked beautiful.

“You look great baby, like always” Hoseok replies with a smile.

Yoongi blushes, “Thank you,” he says as he takes Hoseok’s tie in his hands and starts to tie it for him. Hoseok couldn’t help but think about how domestic the whole scene was, but he liked it.

“My turn, how do I look?” Hoseok asks as Yoongi finishes tying his tie and steps back.

Yoongi smiles, “Stunning,” he replies. Hoseok takes a step towards Yoongi and places a kiss on Yoongi’s lips.

“We need to leave or we’re going to be late,” Yoongi says when Hoseok pulls away.

“Are you sure I don’t have time for a quickie?” Hoseok asks with a smirk.

“Jung Hoseok!” Yoongi yells, playfully hitting his boyfriend’s chest, “Let’s go

now.”

His face is embarrassingly red, so Yoongi doesn’t give Hoseok any time to react before he’s walking out of their shared bedroom. Hoseok follows right behind him, and Yoongi can hear him laughing, presumably at Yoongi’s reaction. He just shakes his head, Hoseok is an idiot, nonetheless Hoseok is still

his

idiot.

“Jeon Jungkook I swear to god if you don’t get out here right now I will take away sex for a month! We need to leave now or we’re going to be late!” jimin yells from the living room. Jungkook, Jimin and Taehyung were currently getting ready to leave for Namjoon and Seokjin’s wedding and Jungkook had been in the bathroom for the past hour. If they didn’t leave now, they would certainly be late. Jungkook has always cared way too much about his looks, Jimin noticed it around when they first met. Jungkook always needs to look perfect. In Jimin’s eyes it is simultaneously his most annoying and endearing quality because honestly Jungkook could throw on a pair of sweatpants and a hoodie and he’d still look hot. 
 
Not even a minute later, the sound of the bathroom door being opened and Jungkook rushing out can be heard. “I’m sorry hyung, I’m here. Do I look okay?” Jungkook rushes out when he reaches Jimin and Taehyung who are standing close to the door.

Taehyung chuckles, “Jeez Kookie, try not to come off as too sex crazed.” Jungkook throws a glare his way.

“Yes Kook-ah you look perfect, can we go now?” Jimin replies with a smile, but it’s obvious he’s concerned with being late. Jimin was never one to like being late, in fact he made it a point to be perfectly punctual for everything.

“Yes hyung, I’m sorry, let’s go,” Jungkook says and the three of them head out the door. 
 
****

Yoongi really wants to know Seokjin’s definition of extravagant because it does not seem to be the same as his. Seokjin and Namjoon had said they weren’t having a wedding that was too fancy or extravagant, but everything about this wedding said otherwise. The venue was a beautiful high class hotel in Seoul, the ceremony had music played by a small orchestra and the decorations and general setup looked very expensive. Yoongi thinks this wedding definitely cost more than he would make in five lifetimes. The guests consisted of some close friends and family, so on that side it wasn’t anything too crazy.

The reception was beautiful though, Yoongi had always been one to cry a little bit at weddings and today was no exception. Taehyung had also cried a little bit, so at least Yoongi could find comfort in the fact that he wasn’t the only one. After the ceremony, Namjoon had dragged Seokjin somewhere, probably to make out because the two of them were gone for a good twenty minutes.

Currently, Hoseok was watching Yoongi dance with Jimin. Namjoon and Seokjin are also out there dancing, but his focus wasn’t on them. The song was fast paced, and a little bit sensual, and Yoongi and Jimin definitely weren’t leaving any room between each other. Hoseok knew Yoongi and Jimin were close, platonic soulmates actually, so the act didn’t surprise him. He kept his eyes trained on Yoongi and the way his hips moved and the smile on his face. Hoseok couldn’t get enough of the sight, and he was so focused that he didn’t realize Taehyung and Jungkook coming and sitting on either side of him.

“I think your boyfriend stole ours,” Jungkook mumbles.

Hoseok laughs a bit, “Maybe,” he says, and then adds, “they look good though don’t they.”

Taehyung takes a sip of his drink, his eyes trained on Jimin, “Really good.” he agrees.

The three of them sit and watch their boyfriends dance together, which might look a little creepy but oh well, and it only takes about five minutes for Jimin to look in their direction and catch them staring.

“Hey Yoonie I think we have an audience,” Jimin says over the music against Yoongi’s ear.

Yoongi looks over his shoulder and sees Hoseok, Taehyung and Jungkook watching them and throws a smirk their way, “We should give them a little show, don’t you think Min?” he suggests and Jimin just nods in agreement.

“They caught us,” Jungkook says when he sees Yoongi turn and smirk at them.

Hoseok hums in acknowledgment, “They like it.” he says, noticing the way Jimin pulls Yoongi closer to him. Yoongi throws his head back, he’s smiling like he’s having the best time of his life. The two of them are dirty dancing, it’s borderlining dancing that belongs in a club and not a wedding but everyone else around them was happily buzzing on alcohol so no one seems to care.

Taehyung sucks in a breath, “Should we stop them?”

Hoseok shakes his head, “Let them go for a while longer, let them have their fun.”

Jungkook doesn’t say anything, he just leans back in his chair and finishes the drink in his hand.

“How do they look?” Yoongi asks, leaning his head on Jimin’s shoulder.

“Hoseok looks like he wants to devour you in front of everyone here, Jungkookie looks like he’s about to explode, Taehyung is as mysterious as ever.” Jimin replies, sliding his hands down Yoongi’s body, stopping at his waist and moving back up again.

Jimin is speaking in Yoongi’s ear, which to anyone that would be in their boyfriend’s position must look like he’s placing kisses there, that’s how close the two of them are.

“How long do you want to drag this out?” Jimin asks, looking at the way Jungkook is shifting in his seat.

“A little bit longer, let’s get Taehyung squirming for you yeah?”

Jimin smiles at just how much Yoongi gets him, “Yeah let’s do it.”
 
The two boys switch their positions so Jimin has his back against Yoongi’s chest, and Yoongi puts his hands on Jimin’s waist, guiding his hips to the beat of the song which was currently something with a reggaeton feel. Jimin locks his eyes with Taehyung’s, he wants to see something other than Taehyung’s straight faced expression and he knows he’s going to have to work for it because he likes making Jimin work. 
 
It takes five minutes for Jimin to unravel Taehyung. It’s when Jimin reaches his arm behind him and around Yoongi, tilting his head back, that Taehyung’s expression finally falters and Jimin can see Taehyung biting his lip.

“This is too much,” Taehyung says.

Jungkook nods, “I agree.”

Hoseok hums, “Get them over here.”

Most of the people were starting to clear out of the wedding venue anyways, so Yoongi and Jimin decided to say a goodbye to their new married friends before heading over to their boyfriends once the two of them decided they had enough. 
 
“What was that little show of yours hm?” Hoseok asks Yoongi when he and Jimin approach them.

Yoongi shrugs, “I was just dancing.”

“Right,” Hoseok says, “

just dancing.”

Yoongi gives a cheeky smile, “Is Hobi jealous?”

“No.” Hoseok says, and he’s telling the truth. Yoongi knows this but he decides to play it further.

“Are you sure?” He asks, fiddling with Hoseok’s tie, “You don’t need to remind me who I belong to?”

Hoseok’s eyes widen, “Fuck, let’s get out of here.” he groans. Jimin, Taehyung and Jungkook had already dipped earlier, so Hoseok waved off to the newlyweds and dragged Yoongi out of the venue.

If Yoongi wanted a reminder he was Hoseok’s he was going to get it.

*****

If dancing with Jimin gets Yoongi what he’s currently getting right now he might have to do it more often. Hoseok had dragged Yoongi home, and practically thrown him on the bed. He wasted no time attaching his lips everywhere on Yoongi’s body, whispering

mine

every time he left a mark. Yoongi knows Hoseok isn't actually jealous, it’s common knowledge that Jimin wasn’t a threat, but

god the way Hoseok was fucking him into the mattress said otherwise.

Yoongi loves rough sex, he loves the feeling of being owned. Hoseok was giving Yoongi everything he loved.

Currently, Hoseok has Yoongi on his back almost bent in half while he snapped his hips rough and fast. The room was filled with skin slapping skin and Yoongi’s high pitched moans, and Hoseok growling

mine kitten, mine

every time he slightly tightened his grip around Yoongi’s throat. It’s absolutely obscene, Yoongi

loves it.

It’s not long until Hoseok is filling Yoongi up and Yoongi is releasing at the same time moaning out a

god yes hyung

. Hoseok tops it off by eating out a sensitive Yoongi to clean him up before heading to the shower.

“Baby are you with me?” Hoseok asks when they lay back down on fresh sheets.

“ ‘m here, just tired” Yoongi replies.

Hoseok runs his fingers through Yoongi’s hair, “Was everything we did okay? Are you okay?” It’s not like they’ve never had rough sex like that before, but they didn’t do it often and Hoseok still got concerned from time to time.

“Yes Hobi, I loved it. I would’ve used the safe words if I wanted you to stop.” Yoongi replies, starting to draw small patterns on Hoseok’s bare chest.

“Okay, you know I worry.”

“I know.”

Hoseok sighs, “I love you hyung.”

“I love you more Hobi.”

****

“You’re awake!” Hoseok says with a smile when he sees Yoongi’s eyes flutter open.

“Mmhm, what time is it?” Yoongi asks while stretching himself out. Hoseok can’t help but think he resembles a cat, it’s cute.

“Around ten,” Hoseok answers.

Yoongi notices a laptop sitting on Hoseok’s lap, and Hoseok is sitting up against the headboard. Yoongi scoots up to look at the screen, “What are you looking at?” he asks, resting his head against Hoseok’s arm.

“Houses,” Hoseok answers, “I was going to talk to you about it, but I thought maybe we could find a new place. One that is ours, that we choose together.”

Yoongi’s eyes widen, “Really? I would love that.”

Hoseok smiles, “I’m happy to hear that,” he says, “is there anything you know you want?”

Yoongi takes a moment to think, “A big home studio, and a nice backyard.”

Hoseok hums, “We can make that work.”

Yoongi was never the white picket fence type of person, and he definitely didn’t have the money to be paying for an expensive house right now but if it meant moving forward with Hoseok he would do it right here right now. Yoongi loved the idea of a new place with Hoseok, finding somewhere they both loved and making the place their own. It was all very domestic, but Yoongi loved the idea of it. He wouldn’t have his life any other way.

----- CHAPTER BREAK -----

Today is an exciting day, because today Yoongi and Hoseok are visiting a few properties to see if they can find anything that peaks their interest. A few nights before, the two of them had made a list of potential things they were looking for in a home and it goes as follows: A nice home studio for Yoongi, a nice city view, possibly a room to use for dance for Hoseok, lots of windows, and not too far from Yoongi’s university. The list is maybe a little unrealistic, but it was fun to make. Yoongi had been worrying about money, he brought up the issue to Hoseok quite a few times after they first started thinking about looking for a home, but Hoseok always reassured him it was not a problem. He had always said there would be other ways Yoongi could help, and bills shouldn’t be his problem until he was out of university. Yoongi was still concerned about it, but he tried his best to not think too hard about it and simply just enjoy the day looking at houses with Hoseok. 
 
  
 
   The day was beautiful, the air was crisp and the leaves were just beginning to change slightly. Hoseok and Yoongi had spent the day viewing properties that were all beautiful, but none actually had stricken them as “the one”. Yoongi wondered how they must look, a young successful businessman and a college student looking for homes surely must look odd to others. Nonetheless, Yoongi was having fun. It was early evening when they were looking at their last home and Hoseok and Yoongi both had that magical moment.
 
“Wow”, Yoongi breathed out as they walked around the place, “It’s beautiful.”

Hoseok nodded, “I love it so much.”
 
    The home is already furnished, it is full of neutral earthy tones. Most of the flooring is a light wood. It has four bedrooms and three full bathrooms. The bathrooms have beautiful marble detailing, it has a lot of windows and views of the city, including in the biggest master bedroom Yoongi had ever seen. There is a modern style fireplace in the living room, and it’s a very open plan in general. Despite being considered a luxury apartment, it is two stories and feels like a house. It is also in the perfect location for both Yoongi and Hoseok. It’s all around perfect, and Yoongi is having that ‘it’s the one’ moment, Hoseok seems like he is too. There is just one problem, it’s the most expensive place they’ve looked at, it’s insanely pricy. 
 
“What do you think baby?” Hoseok asks once they're done with the tour.

“It’s like a dream.” Yoongi responds, still amazed.

“Could you see yourself, could you see us, living here?”

Yoongi nods, “Absolutely.” It had everything on their silly little list, plus an extra room if they ever decided to start a family, which was maybe too soon to be thinking about but Yoongi can’t help it.

Hoseok smiles softly, “Me too, I think it’s the one.”

“But it’s so expensive…” Yoongi trails, he can’t help himself from thinking about that either.

“We can make it work.” Hoseok replies, “I want to sign on it, if you do.”

“I do.”
 
   And that's that, before Yoongi knows it they are signing the housing contract and being told they can move in the next week. It’s all so crazy and surreal to Yoongi, but he smiles so widely the whole time. Everything felt right to Yoongi at that moment, and he bubbles with excitement. He can’t wait to start a new chapter of his relationship with Hoseok.

****

“So you really found a place?” Jimin asks, shocked.

Today is a rare day when Yoongi actually gets Jimin to himself, Taehyung and Jungkook both busy with something, Hoseok was out dealing with business matters. The two of them were sitting in the living room of where Yoongi and Hoseok currently lived, drinking a bottle of red wine.

Yoongi hums, “We did, it’s beautiful, like a dream. We can move in next week.”

“That is so exciting hyung!” Jimin says beaming, “Do you have pictures? Can I see?”

Yoongi shakes his head, “Nope you will see when everyone else does.”

Jimin pouts, “But I’m your

soulmate,

I should get special privileges.”

Yoongi laughs, “No Min.”

Jimin pouts some more, “Fine.”

“You know my parents are going to be in town next week, they said they wanted to see the new place,” Yoongi starts, changing the subject, “and then it dawned on me that Hobi has never actually met my parents.”

Jimin’s eyes widen, “Oh wow, yeah I guess that’s true. Have you told him yet?”

Yoongi shakes his head, “No, not yet. I’m nervous, what if he doesn’t want to meet them? What if my parents hate him?”

“Ok first of all, if Hoseok hyung is buying a place with you I see no reason why he wouldn’t want to meet your parents. He has to eventually. And secondly, you can’t dwell on what ifs Yoonie, I’m sure they’ll love him.”

Yoongi shrugs, “I guess you’re right.” There’s silence for a moment before he asks, “How are things going with Taehyung and Jungkook.”

Jimin smiles, “Really well, I love them a lot and I know they love me. I couldn’t be happier.”

Yoongi smiles back, “I’m really happy to hear that Min.”

The two of them continue talking about everything and nothing for a while, while they finish the bottle of wine. Eventually it gets late and Jimin excuses himself to go home, and Hoseok arrives back from work. Yoongi doesn’t say anything about his parents that night, but he will soon. He has to, but he’s nervous.

****

It takes Yoongi until two days before they are supposed to move into their new place to bring up his parents. Him and Hoseok were packing the last of their things when he finally speaks up.

“Hobi..I uh have something to tell you.” Yoongi started. It had been silent for a while, the two of them just enjoying each other’s comfortable presence.

Hoseok stops what he’s doing, “What is it?” he asks, looking concerned.

“My parents are coming into town this week, they um...they want to see the new place,” Yoongi says quietly, “and meet you.”

Hoseok’s eyes go wide, “Really?”

Yoongi nods, “Yeah, I’m sorry I didn’t mention it sooner. I was just nervous.”

“What made you nervous?”

“I don’t know, I guess I was just scared you wouldn’t want to.” Yoongi admits.

Hoseok takes Yoongi’s hands in his, “Of course I want to, hell I just bought a place with you. I’m in this baby, all the way.”

Yoongi smiles, “I think they’ll love you.” He really believed that now. Hoseok is a likeable person, easy to love. It’s part of the reason Yoongi fell in love with him so quickly.

“You think so?” Hoseok asks, hopeful.

“I know so” Yoongi replies and punctuates it with a kiss to Hoseok’s lips.

Later that night, Yoongi makes plans for dinner at the new home the day they move in. It leaves Yoongi feeling all bubbly and happy inside, outweighing his inevitable nervousness. This was it, Hoseok was finally going to meet his parents, yet another big step that felt so right.

----- CHAPTER BREAK -----

Yoongi had fixed the centerpiece on their new dining table ten times, and now he was slightly adjusting it for an eleventh time. He had moved into the new apartment with Hoseok today, and now it was evening and Yoongi’s parents would arrive at any moment. He’s never felt so nervous to see his parents before in his life. 
 
“Hyung, it looks just fine.” Hoseok says, noticing Yoongi shifting the place settings on the table slightly again.

Yoongi sighs, “I know I just want this all to look perfect, to be perfect.”

Hoseok walks over to where Yoongi is and pulls him into a tight hug. Yoongi breathes in Hoseok’s familiar scent, feeling comforted. “It’ll go wonderful baby, I promise.” Hoseok assures him.

Yoongi smiles and stands on his tiptoes to place a kiss on Hoseok’s lips, “Thank you,” he says quietly when they part, and then the doorbell rings, “Oh my god they're here!”
 
Yoongi leaves Hoseok to go answer the door and Hoseok takes a deep breath, he may have just spent the past ten minutes comforting Yoongi, but he is still incredibly nervous himself. 
 
****

“So Hoseok, what do you do for a living? Yoongi mentioned that you aren’t going to  school.” Yoongi’s father asks once they are all sat down to eat.

“I graduated exceptionally early actually. I am currently a nightclub owner. I own many night clubs around the country, Japan, and a couple in the U.S. as well. I oversee everything.”  Hoseok answers.

“A businessman, very respectable!” Yoongi’s mom says, “Although with all that work you must not have that much time for Yoongi no?”

Hoseok hears Yoongi stifle a groan, but Hoseok just smiles politely, “I am able to work mostly from home, and I don’t go on too many business trips. I always make sure I have time for him.”

“What about your parents, what do they do?” Yoongi’s father asks.

“Dad...no” Yoongi intervenes, knowing family is a sensitive subject for Hoseok.

Hoseok places a hand on Yoongi’s thigh under the table and lightly squeezes to let him know it’s okay, and then answers “Both of my parents passed away in a car accident when I was young. My aunt was my only other family so she raised me, but she’s gone now as well.”

Yoongi watches his mother’s expression drop, “I’m so sorry to hear that…”

Hoseok shakes his head, “It’s alright.”
 
  The rest of the night goes smoothly. Yoongi talks about his internship he had over the summer once his parents finally stopped interrogating Hoseok. Hoseok takes his turn to sit back and watch as Yoongi talks about going back to school and other things. His heart stings a little bit when Yoongi mentions the trip they took with their friends in the beginning of the summer. Hoseok thinks Yoongi’s parents like him, well he hopes so at least. The rest of the dinner seems like it flies by, and soon enough Yoongi is starting to clear the plates off the table. 
 
“Where are you guys staying?” Hoseok asks out of curiosity while Yoongi is in the kitchen.

“At a hotel not too far from here.” Yoongi’s mom answers.

“You know, you could just stay here, we have plenty of space and a guest room.” Hoseok suggests.

He looks to Yoongi in the kitchen for confirmation and Yoongi nods, “Yeah, I mean it doesn’t make sense for you guys to pay for a room when we have one.”

“Perfect then!” Yoongi’s mom exclaims.

Yoongi smiles, he doesn’t think this could have gone any  better. 
    
“Are you okay Hobi?” Yoongi asks once the two of them are alone in bed that night, “I know family is a sensitive subject for you.”

Hoseok places a reassuring kiss to the top of Yoongi’s head, “Yeah, I’m fine. It’s fine. I kind of expected it to be honest.”

“They really like you.” Yoongi says.

“Really?”

“Yeah, they couldn’t stop gushing about you while I was taking them over to the guest room.”

Hoseok chuckles, “I’m really glad.” There’s silence for a few moments, Hoseok carding his fingers through Yoongi’s hair calming Yoongi down. After a few minutes, Hoseok breaks the silence again, “My parents would have really loved you.” he says.

Yoongi takes a deep breath, “You think so?”

“I know so.”

Yoongi smiles and looks up to kiss Hoseok. The kiss is slow and passionate, the two of them feeling at home in each other's lips.

“I love you.” Hoseok whispers when they pull apart.

“I love you too.”

**** 
“You’re staring” Yoongi mumbles as he types away at his laptop. He’s currently searching for course materials he’ll need for the semester that’s starting in a few days. The two of them had some drama playing on the television, but Hoseok was too busy staring at Yoongi to pay attention.

“I still don’t get how the hell you do that,” Hoseok says in disbelief, “it is one thing I have never figured out throughout the whole time I’ve known you.”

Yoongi smirks, “And it’ll remain a mystery.”

Hoseok huffs, but doesn’t reply. Instead he leans in to press small open mouthed kisses to Yoongi’s neck.

“What are you doing?” Yoongi asks.

“I’m horny, and you look hot in those glasses and grey sweatpants.” Hoseok admits shamelessly.

“My parents are here.”

“Not right now they're not.” Hoseok answers, nibbling on Yoongi’s earlobe. 
 
  That is enough for Yoongi to push his laptop aside and place himself in Hoseok’s lap. He connects their lips, the kiss turns heated and before Yoongi knows it Hoseok is changing their position so he is hovering over Yoongi who is now laying on the couch. He finds Yoongi’s sensitive spot on the dip of his collarbone and starts to leave a mark as his hands roam Yoongi’s body, stopping to palm him through his sweats. It doesn’t take long for Yoongi to turn into a whining mess under Hoseok. He rolls his hips up, desperately trying to get friction while he and Hoseok make out. He starts to tug at Hoseok’s t-shirt and just as Hoseok is about to sit up to pull it off they hear the sound of someone clearing their throat. The two of them freeze and Hoseok sits up only to find himself staring face to face with Yoongi’s parents. 
 
“Mrs. and Mr. Min, ah g-good afternoon,” Hoseok says while trying to hide the fact that his lips are swollen from kissing Yoongi and his hair is probably tousled from Yoongi tugging at it.

Yoongi audibly groads from underneath Hoseok, he flings an arm over his eyes trying to avoid the current situation, “Oh my

god.”

He may be a little bit of an exhabitionist sometimes, but that didn’t mean he wanted his

parents

of all people walking in on him whining desperately under his boyfriend.

Yoongi’s mom just laughs, “Good afternoon boys, we are just heading down to the Han River for the day, do you need anything while we are out?”

“No thank you eomma, we’re okay. Have fun today.” Yoongi says, not bothering to try to look his parents in the eyes. 
 
“Oh my god I can’t believe that just happened,” Yoongi whines when he’s sure his parents are really gone this time, “the mood is ruined.”

Hoseok smirks, “Who says?” he asks, giving a roll of his hip to show he’s still hard and horny. 
 
That’s all the convincing Yoongi needs to blow him, and Hoseok returns the favor
 
***

That weekend, Hoseok and Yoongi decide to invite their friends over for a little housewarming hangout. Yoongi’s parents had left earlier that morning to go back to Daegu, so Yoongi thought it would be the perfect night.

Jimin, Taehyung, and Jungkook arrive first. Their jaws are dropped to the floor as Hoseok and Yoongi guide them to the living room. “This place is so beautiful, and huge, and

expensive

looking,” Jungkook gasps.

“It really is amazing,” Jimin says and Taehyung hums in agreement.

Namjoon and Seokjin don’t follow too far behind, having the same reactions as Jimin, Taehyung and Jungkook.

“So what made you two want to get a new place together?” Seokjin asks once they are all seated, spread out across the living room.

“We wanted to find a place to make our own. Somewhere we picked out together. This apartment did come with all the furniture, but we do plan on adding our accents to the place.” Yoongi answers.

“I never thought I’d see you settled down like this Hoseokkie,” Taehyung says with a light laugh. Jimin shoots him a warning glare, knowing it’s a sensitive  subject.

Hoseok shrugs, “We just bought a place together, it’s not like I’m completely settled or anything, I needed to move out of my old apartment anyways.”

Yoongi shifts in his seat uncomfortably, he doesn’t like that comment at all. It’s like Hoseok considers Yoongi as some sort of temporary object in his life, like Yoongi would be out of his life by the end of the year. It’s like it undid all the progress they had made, maybe Yoongi is being overdramatic but he really felt small right now. Instead of saying something right then and there, he decides to suggest watching a movie. Everyone agrees, and Yoongi is glad to have a distraction.

“Why did you say that comment earlier?” Yoongi asks quietly once everyone is gone and the two of them are in bed, “Do you see me as a temporary thing in your life?”

“No of course not baby,” Hoseok answers.

“Then why did you say it?”

Hoseok sighs, “I don’t know...I guess it just scared me. They were acting as if we were married and settled and having kids and all that...and that scares me.”

Yoongi hums in acknowledgement, “I understand.” Silence for a moment. “Can you see us getting married?”

“Can you?” Hoseok asks in return.

“Yeah, I can.”

Hoseok takes a deep breath, “One day I think…”

----- CHAPTER BREAK -----

[Time Skip : a few months]

Hoseok has never really cared for Christmas. When he was younger, he always got excited about it, but as he grew older and started living on his own he lost interest. Namjoon and Seokjin were almost always too busy with their careers, and Taehyung was always gone visiting his family, so this time of year Hoseok was used to being alone. This year is different though, because this year he has Yoongi with him.

Unlike Hoseok, Yoongi really loves Christmas. When Hoseok had proposed that they don’t do gifts Yoongi was visibly displeased. It’s not because he was expecting something from Hoseok, he just really enjoys giving gifts, and this is their first Christmas together so he wanted to give Hoseok something really special. He thought about disregarding his promise not to get anything and buy Hoseok a present anyways, but he assumed Hoseok wouldn’t necessarily be pleased with that. Nonetheless, he is happy to be spending Christmas with Hoseok. It would just be the two of them, Seokjin and Namjoon went to go visit their families, Taehyung, Jimin, and Jungkook had decided to spend the holiday on a vacation. Yoongi usually visited his parents every other year for Christmas, and this year was a year where he wasn’t supposed to go home. So, it is just him and Hoseok, and Yoongi decides he will be taking full advantage of that. He decorated their new home in all the decorations he could think of, the only thing missing is a tree, which they will be decorating tonight.

“I’m home!” Yoongi hears Hoseok call.

Yoongi skips to greet him at the door, “Hoseokkie!” he says excitedly, placing a kiss on Hoseok’s lips, “You brought the tree with you!”

Hoseok smiles looking at the tall box next to him, “I did, you want to put it up tonight?”

“Yes please!” Yoongi replies, flashing a gummy smile. Those smiles are Hoseok’s favorite, he would decorate a thousand Christmas trees if it means he can see that smile.
  
 It takes about ten minutes for the two of them to get the tree up, and by the two of them it’s mostly Yoongi watching Hoseok struggle and Yoongi giggling. Hoseok can’t complain though because Yoongi’s giggle is the most endearing thing in the world.

Yoongi lays out all of the ornaments he bought recently and Hoseok watches as Yoongi pokes his tongue against the inside of his cheeks as he decides what to put up first. Hoseok thinks he looks incredibly adorable thinking like that. Finally, he chooses silver sparkly globes and decides to put them up.

He hands one over to Hoseok, “Want to do the honors and put the first one up?”

Hoseok smiles, “How about we do it together, yeah?”

Yoongi nods in response. Hoseok moves behind him, leaning his chin on Yoongi’s shoulder, placing a hand on his hip and the other on top of Yoongi’s hand as Yoongi moves to place the glittery sphere onto the tree.

They continue like that for a while, both of them placing ornaments on the tree as soft Christmas music plays in the background. At some point, Hoseok decides to sit on the couch as Yoongi finishes putting the last of the decorations on the tree. He watches as Yoongi occasionally has to stand on his tiptoes to reach a spot that’s too high up.

Has he mentioned that he finds Yoongi so incredibly endearing?

It doesn’t take long for Yoongi to finish up, and when he does he turns to look at Hoseok, “What do you think?”

Hoseok pretends to think for a moment and says, “It looks beautiful baby, you did a great job.”

Yoongi settles himself down next to Hoseok on the couch, “

We

did a great job.” he replies as he curls himself in Hoseok’s side.

Hoseok doesn’t know how long they sit there with him carding his fingers through Yoongi’s hair while humming along to the soft music playing in the background. Hoseok thinks he wouldn’t mind spending every Christmas this way, and that’s when he realizes it. It’s a small moment to have this kind of realization, but here in this moment Hoseok knows he wants to spend the rest of his life with Yoongi, he doesn’t want to be with anyone else. He decides that he’ll take back his decision for no presents,

sorry Yoongi,

and propose on Christmas day. It might seem like a little too soon since they’ve been together for just shy of a year, but Hoseok has never been so sure of anything in his entire life.

Yoongi is the one for him. The

only

one for him. Hoseok only hopes that Yoongi feels the same way.

****

Hoseok is up to something, Yoongi is sure of it. He’s been on the phone a lot, and has been spending all day out on the weekends. Whenever Yoongi asks, Hoseok just brushes it off or makes up some excuse about having to work overtime. Yoongi sees right through it, but he doesn’t say anything. He trusts Hosseok enough at this point to know he can’t be up to anything bad. He’s still curious though, especially when he overhears a conversation where it seems like he’s talking to Jimin.

Yoongi had just gotten out of the shower, the bathroom door was slightly cracked and now with the water no longer running, he could hear Hoseok speaking in their bedroom.

“Jimin you have to help me,” he hears Hoseok say, “I need your advice.” Hoseok is speaking in a hushed tone, and he seems to have heard Yoongi finish in the shower right then because he moves to the hallway to finish his conversation.

Yoongi tries to ask Jimin what the conversation was about the next day, but no matter how persistent he was Jimin wouldn’t budge. Yoongi gives up, figuring that whatever Hoseok is sneaking around doing will be revealed soon. Maybe he really was getting Yoongi a Christmas present despite his suggestion not to. In that case, Yoongi really should get Hoseok something right? He decides to stop stressing about it, and focus on enjoying the holiday season instead.

Whatever Hoseok is planning would come to light soon.

****

Today is the day. It’s Christmas morning, and everything that Hoseok has been running around planning for the past week would finally be put into action. Hoseok had bought a simple silver engagement ring that had small diamonds encrusted across the entirety of it. When he saw the ring, he knew it would suit Yoongi right away. He tied a red bow around the black velvet box, and tucked it in his pocket.

He prepared a beautiful breakfast spread, and lit three vanilla candles (Yoongi’s favorite), and turned on some of that Christmas music Yoongi loved so much softly in the background. Yoongi wasn’t awake yet, and he didn’t want to wake him so he sat downstairs adjusting the display until Yoongi woke up. It isn’t long until he hears the sound of Yoongi coming down the stairs.

Christmas morning, Yoongi wakes up alone. The first thing he notices is the coldness he feels when he wakes up that morning. He turns to the side and sees that Hoseok’s side of the bed is empty. Frowning, Yoongi sits up and stretches. He runs his finger through his hair a few times to tame his bedhead and decides to go downstairs to find Hoseok. When he reaches the bottom of the steps, he hears soft music coming from the kitchen area. He finds Hoseok lighting up a vanilla scented candle and a breakfast spread across the table. 
 
“Hoseokkie what is all this?” Yoongi asks, getting Hoseok’s attention.

Hoseok turns around, “I wanted you to wake up to something nice this morning,” he answers and places a kiss on Yoongi’s forehead.

Yoongi smiles, “It looks wonderful.”

“Let’s eat then.” 
 
The two of them eat in mostly silence, the soft Christmas music filling the silence and making it comfortable. Hoseok starts to feel nervous, he knows he wants this but he hopes it doesn’t freak Yoongi out. Nonetheless, when the two of them are done eating, Hoseok reaches for his pocket. 
 
“So I know we said no gifts,” Hoseok starts and Yoongi furrows his brows, “but I have this.” He sets the black velvet box in front of Yoongi.

Yoongi picks it up and inspects the box with the red bow wrapped around it. A few moments later, he unties the bow and opens the box. He sees a ring with diamonds encrusted in it and his eyes widen. When Yoongi lifts his head, he sees Hoseok kneeling down on one knee next to him. He didn’t know when he had done that. 
 
“Min Yoongi,” Hoseok starts, “I know we’ve only been together for almost a year now, and we’ve been through a lot of ups and downs, but I know there is no one else I want to spend the rest of my life with. Will you marry me.”

Yoongi’s jaw drops, he looks at the ring and then back to Hoseok a few times, and with tears welling up in his eyes he nods furiously, “Yes, oh my god Hoseok yes!”

Hoseok smiles the widest he’s ever smiled in his whole life. He carefully took the velvet box out of Yoongi’s hand and slid the ring onto Yoongi’s ring finger. Hoseok stands up, and yoongi wastes no time jumping into Hoseok’s arms and kissing him. The kiss is sweet and full of excitement. 
 
“I love you Hoseok,” Yoongi whispers against Hoseok’s lips.

“I love you too baby,” Hoseok replies placing another sweet kiss on Yoongi’s lips, “so fucking much.”

----- CHAPTER BREAK -----

At this point in their relationship, Hoseok feels like he knows everything about Yoongi. They’ve been with each other for a while now, after all it is the day before their one year anniversary. Hoseok knows all of Yoongi’s habits, how he fiddles with his glasses when he’s trying to concentrate on an assignment, how he calms down when Hoseok cards his finger through Yoongi’s hair, and how his coffee order is always a black iced americano etc. etc. He also knows what turns Yoongi on, like his little exhibitionism kink, and everything else the older enjoys during sex. Well, at least he thought he did. Now, he’s not so sure.

It is a Friday where Hoseok has off work, his assistant had known it was his anniversary weekend and assured him that she would be fine taking care of his work for the day. Yoongi had decided to accompany Jimin to the dance studio after classes so Hoseok had the apartment to himself. He decided to take care of household cleaning, figuring Yoongi has been working hard enough with school so he shouldn’t have to be bothered with chores for the weekend.

Hoseok is currently putting away Yoongi’s laundry and that’s when he finds it. Black lace panties. He stares at them in shock, his first thought was

are these someone else's,

but obviously they aren’t. His next thought is,

holy shit Yoongi owns black lace panties and I didn’t know.

He wonders why the older never told him, Yoongi had always felt comfortable expressing his preferences and what he likes and dislikes with Hoseok so why was this different? As Hoseok runs his thumb over the pretty black lace he can’t help but think how this isn’t necessarily shocking when he thinks about it. You see, despite Yoongi’s wardrobe consisting of only a black, grey, and white color palette, he knows Yoongi likes to feel pretty and

fuck Yoongi probably looks so pretty in this lace,

he probably feels pretty in it too. He also wonders when Yoongi had ever worn them, knowing he has never seen Yoongi in them before. The longer Hoseok looks at the panties though, the more he starts to feel like he’s looking at something he shouldn’t be looking at. Despite the two of them being engaged, this is obviously something that is private to Yoongi and Hoseok had just accidentally found out. So, he puts them back where he found them, and continues on his day. 
  
 It’s later that day, Yoongi had come home and the two of them had a relaxing night together. Now Yoongi lays curled against Hoseok’s side sleeping because he had a long day, but Hoseok can’t sleep. He’s still thinking about the black lace he found in Yoongi’s drawer. He couldn’t help but think about how Yoongi must look in them,

he must look so sexy,

and the thought turns him on so much. So, he makes a decision that may or may not be a really dumb one. He decides to buy Yoongi a last minute anniversary gift, a delicate set of black lace panties, a black garter belt, and lacy black stockings. He’s not sure why he’s doing this, he doesn’t know how Yoongi will react; he’ll either be very embarrassed or he’ll love it. Hoseok hopes it’ll be the latter of the two options. Before he can overthink it, he adds the items to his cart and presses next day delivery.

Hopefully this isn’t a big mistake.

****
 
The next day, Hoseok had planned everything out. The package had arrived while Yoongi was still sleeping which was surprising, but Hoseok was grateful. He planned to take Yoongi out to one of his favorite restaurants in Seoul, he knew the owner so he scored a private corner of the rooftop seating that looked over the skyline of the city. Then Hoseok will take Yoongi home and give him the gift, and

hopefully

everything will go well.

The day passes by agonizingly slow for Hoseok, probably because he’s anxious about his little gift for Yoongi, but eventually the time comes and they're getting ready for dinner.

“How do I look?” Yoongi asks, giving a cute little spin to show Hoseok his full outfit. The older had dressed himself in a patterned dior bomber jacket Hoseok had bought for him a while back, with a simple black t-shirt underneath and a pair of black jeans. He looks absolutely stunning.

“Absolutely beautiful as always baby” Hoseok replies.

Hoseok had put himself in a dress shirt tucked into a pair of black slacks and a black blazer. Yoongi gives a shy smile, “I could say the same for you.”

Hoseok places a kiss on Yoongi’s lips, “Should we head out?” he asks, and Yoongi nods.

---

“Wow this is so amazing,” Yoongi breathes as the two of them sit down at their reserved table for dinner.

“I thought you would appreciate the view from up here,” Hoseok says.

He watches as Yoongi looks across the skyline, his eyes eventually landing back on Hoseok, “It’s beautiful,” he says, “but I can think of a better view.”

Hoseok just chuckles at that. The waiter comes over and takes their drink orders, Hoseok asks for their best bottle of
rosé and he leaves the two of them alone again.

The night goes really well. Hoseok can’t get enough of Yoongi’s cute satisfied expression when he tries a new food he really likes. The two of them talk and talk for ages, there’s no silent pauses. It’s funny how they’ve been together for a year now, but whenever they sit down like this Hoseok feels like he’s getting to know Yoongi all over again. It’s a good feeling, Hoseok is so hopelessly in love with Yoongi. He was never like this with Jaehyun, so it’s refreshing. Soon enough though, the two of them finish, and after Hoseok convinces Yoongi to let him take the bill on his own, the two of them are on their way back home.

Hoseok’s nervousness bubbles up again, and he finds himself begging the universe for the thousandth time for this to go well.

****

“So I got you something,” Hoseok says when he and Yoongi are changed into comfortable clothing and sitting up in bed together.

“You said we weren’t doing gifts again,” Yoongi pouts.

“I know, this was more of a last minute thing,” Hoseok replies, taking the box out from where he hid it under the bed, “now please don’t take this the wrong way or anything, I don’t know if I overstepped. If you don’t like it you can throw it away, no hard feelings and we can forget this ever happened.”

Yoongi tilts his head to the side in question, “You’re making me nervous Hobi. What is it?”

Hoseok lets out a shaky breath, “Here, open it.”

Yoongi inspects the white box wrapped in a red bow, much like he inspected the ring box on Christmas morning, before pulling the bow apart and lifting the lid of the box. He stares wide eyed at the contents of the box, and runs his fingers over the delicate lace, “How did you know?” he asks quietly.

“Well yesterday, when I was putting away the clothes I washed for you, I um..I found the panties in your drawer. It was an accident, I wasn’t snooping or anything I just...if you hate it we can toss it and pretend this never happened.” Hoseok rambles, looking down to his lap, “I’m sorry.” He doesn’t really know why he’s apologizing, but he feels like he needs to.

“Don’t be,” Yoongi replies shyly, “They’re really pretty.”

“Why did you never tell me?”

Yoongi just shrugs, “I don’t know, I guess I felt a little embarrassed.”

“You never have to be embarrassed with me baby, you know that right?”

“I know.”

“I feel pretty when I wear them,” Yoongi explains.

“Do you want to try these on?” Hoseok asks, looking back at Yoongi who nods. “Go ahead then baby.”

Yoongi takes the box to the bathroom that is connected to their bedroom and carefully dresses himself in the set. He leaves his oversized fuzzy white sweater on, and stares at himself in the mirror. Everything fits him so perfectly, and he feels so

so pretty.

He blushes as he looks at himself, wondering if Hoseok would think the same. Slowly, he opens the door and pads over to the bed, standing at the side of it. He clears his throat to get Hoseok’s attention and when Hoseok looks up, his jaw drops slightly.

“Holy shit,” he whispers.

“Do you like it?” Yoongi asks shyly, playing with the hem of his sweater.

Hoseok’s eyes darken with lust, “You look so fucking sexy kitten, come here.”

Yoongi places himself on Hoseok’s lap and immediately Hoseok’s lips are on his. The kiss starts slow, but turns quick fast. Yoongi’s fingers thread through Hoseok’s hair as the kiss gets more heated and he lets out a whimper as he rolls his hips down, the lace providing delicious friction to his growing hard on.

“Seok-ah,” Yoongi breathes out as Hoseok moves to suck a mark on his favorite spot on Yoongi’s collarbone.

“Tell hyung what you want kitten,” Hoseok replies, his tone low.

Yoongi tugs at Hoseok’s hair a little bit as Hoseok moves to palm Yoongi through the lace, “Fuck me Seok-ah,” he

whines,

“fuck me with the lace on.”

So Hoseok does, because who is he to deny Yoongi?  He starts slowly, teasing Yoongi and feeling him everywhere until he’s full on

begging

for Hoseok to be inside him. He gives it to Yoongi rough, just like Yoongi loves, but never fails to whisper compliments and tell Yoongi how pretty he looks all dressed up for Hoseok like this, feeding into Yoongi’s praise kink just how he likes. It’s all so incredibly hot, Hoseok feels like he’s in a dream.

This is the man he’s going to spend the rest of his life with.

And he wouldn’t have it any other way.

----- CHAPTER BREAK -----

“Another business trip? Now?” Yoongi asks. He was currently sitting at the usual campus cafe he went to in between classes with Hoseok. When Hoseok had asked to meet him for lunch, this is not what Yoongi was expecting. It all feels like a strange sense of deja vu back to the first time Hoseok had told Yoongi he was leaving for a business trip in the beginning of their relationship. “I know it’s not ideal, with being in the middle of wedding planning and all, but The Dionysus in Tokyo is having issues again and I have to go and deal with them.” Hoseok answers, an apologetic expression painting his features. “Nobody else can do it?” Yoongi asks, much like he did back then, and Hoseok just shakes his head. “Will...will Jaehyun be there?” “No, he definitely won’t. He no longer works there, in fact he doesn’t work for me at all.”“How long will you be gone?” “Only three days, I’ll have to leave on the next plane today.” Yoongi sighs, “I’ll miss you.”Hoseok smiles, “I’ll miss you too baby, I wish you could come with but I’ll be back before you know it.”    Yoongi knows this will be nothing like the last time when Hoseok went on a business trip to Tokyo, but he’s still bummed about it nonetheless. Their wedding is fast approaching, and aside from that he just didn’t like being away from Hoseok. Hoseok promised Yoongi before leaving from their lunch break that he’d let him know when he arrived in Tokyo and he’d call the night after, so Yoongi tried to find comfort in that. He trusts Hoseok, they are engaged after all, so nothing is going to happen. Yoongi knows that.  **** The house feels too big without Hoseok. So, not wanting to be alone, Yoongi invites Jimin over to spend the night. Taehyung and Jungkook end up tagging along, because the three of them are inseparable, which Yoongi doesn’t mind. He’s sitting on the couch in his living room when he hears two knocks on the door and then the sound of Jimin, Taehyung and Jungkook entering.  “Oh my god Minnie are you providing for a frat!?” Yoongi asks when the three of them appear in front of him, Jimin carrying a copious amount of alcohol. Jimin giggles, “We couldn’t decide what we were in the mood for so we brought options, you choose.”Yoongi surveys the choices in front of him which are soju, a rosé, vodka, and whiskey. He takes a moment before replying, “Let’s go for the soju.” Jimin passes Yoongi a bottle of soju and takes one for himself, Taehyung and Jungkook decide to go for the rosé.  “So how is everything with you three?” Yoongi asks when they are all situated. Whatever was playing on the tv when they arrived was long forgotten. Taehyung flashes a boxy smile, “Absolutely amazing, the sex never gets boring.”“Tae!” Jimin gasps. Jungkook just laughs, an embarrassed blush painting his cheeks. “But for real, these two are so good to me. I feel like the luckiest person alive, I’ve never been happier,” Taehyung adds. “That’s really good to hear,” Yoongi says with an adoring smile. “How about you hyung? How are things with Hoseok?” Jungkook asks. “He still works too much for his own good,” Yoongi answers, “but I’m the happiest I’ve been in a long time. I love him a lot, and I never thought I’d be saying this but I can’t wait to be married to him.” Now it’s Taehyung’s turn to give a fond smile, “You’ve changed him alot hyung, for the better. You make him really happy.” Jimin just hums in acknowledgement, listening to the conversation. Yoongi can’t pinpoint the expression on Jimin’s face, but it doesn’t look like a good one. “What are you thinking about Minnie?”“I don’t know…” Jimin starts, taking a drink from his soju bottle, “I just can’t help but be a little wary of him still.” Yoongi furrows his brows, “What do you mean?” Jimin shrugs, “Don’t you ever think you might be moving a little fast? I mean you haven’t even graduated college yet, you two have only been together for a year, and that year has been rough. Shouldn’t you be working a bit more on your relationship first?” he pauses for a moment before adding, “You know I trust you Yoongs, and I’ll always support you, I’m only saying this because I want the best for you.” Taehyung and Jungkook stay silent, figuring it isn’t their place to put any input on this conversation, and just wait to see how Yoongi will respond. Yoongi sighs, “I’ve thought a lot about that since I said yes to the proposal actually…” he drifts, seemingly lost in thought. Eventually he speaks up again, “I can’t say that there isn’t a small part of me somewhere deep inside that isn’t a little worried. I mean a year isn’t really that long right? Especially with all the trouble we’ve been through.” “He’s a different person than he was when he made all those mistakes hyung,” Taehyung says quietly. Yoongi almost doesn’t hear him. Yoongi hums, “I know, I can tell. That’s why I think we’ll be okay. We communicate a lot more than we used to, and I find myself trusting him now more than I really ever have. I mean for example, this time when he left for Tokyo, he actually let me know when he arrived like he said he would.” “If you trust him, then I do too. I just want you to be happy,” Jimin says. “I am happy, so so happy. I really do think this is where I’m meant to be, with Hoseok. As stupidly cheesy as it sounds, I don’t think I can live without him.” Yoongi replies, smiling to himself at the thought of spending the rest of his life with Hoseok. “Then, I’m happy for you, and I support you.” Jimin answers with a smile. Jungkook claps his hands together, “Okay then! Enough of this, let’s get wasted!” Yoongi just laughs, finding the younger endearing.     The rest of the night goes by with no more conversation of Yoongi and Hoseok. The four of them laugh and drink well into the night. Yoongi finds comfort in spending time with them, it’s been a while since he had the time to hang out with his friends like this. For the majority of the night Yoongi doesn’t give any more thought to the conversation he had about Hoseok with Jimin, but when they decide to turn in for the night, Yoongi lays awake and the thoughts come back. The bed's too big without Hoseok, and Yoongi’s drunk mind starts to feel sad being alone. He finds himself not being able to sleep, despite the alcohol in his system begging him to just fall asleep. Memories from Hoseok’s last business trip to Tokyo come back, the time where he had cheated on Yoongi with Jaehyun. With that, comes all the memories of the rocky parts of their relationship the previous year. It’s not that Yoongi doesn’t trust Hoseok, he does, but Jimin’s words just keep replying in his mind. “Don’t you ever think you might be moving a little fast?” Of course Yoongi had thought of that, in fact he thought about it so much when the engagement that he had brought it up with Hoseok in the beginning of the new year.

“Hey Hobi?” Yoongi asked as they were laying in bed.

“What is it baby?” Hoseok asks, looking down at Yoongi who was curled against his side with his head resting on Hoseok’s chest.

“Do you think we might be moving too fast?” Yoongi asks, “You know, with the engagement and everything.”

“Is that what you think?”

“I don’t know… maybe.”

“We don’t have to do this if you don’t want to, you know I completely understand. I haven’t exactly been the best boyfriend to you for most of our time together, and I get if you need a little more time for you to fully trust me.” Hoseok replies, running his fingers through Yoongi’s hair.

“I trust you, I just...I don’t know. This is a big change.” Yoongi says quietly, “You promise you’ll never leave me.” Yoongi doesn’t know what has got him feeling so insecure, but for some reason it had been nagging at him for some time.

“Hey, look at me,” Hoseok starts, and Yoongi meets Hoseok’s eyes, “I promise baby, I love you. You are the only one I want to be with now, and the only one I want to spend my life with. I swear I have never been happier in my entire life, you’re the best thing that has ever happened to me.”

“I love you, I’m sorry for being insecure.”

Hoseok plants a reassuring kiss to Yoongi’s lips, “You never have to apologize for your feelings. I love you too, so much.”
  And that was the end of the conversation that night. Since then, Yoongi hasn’t really given it much more thought. He felt that he got the reassurance he needed from Hoseok when they had that conversation, and he threw himself into wedding planning and got himself excited for the big day. Despite still being in university, albeit his last year, he knows he is ready for this. Jimin had only been worried for him, and that is understandable, so Yoongi decides to shake off these insecure thoughts and reminds himself once again that this is what he wants. Hoseok loves him, Hoseok will never leave him, and he loves Hoseok just as much. This is right, he tells himself. Eventually, he gives in and lets sleep overtake him with this thought in his mind.  ****   When Hoseok lays down to sleep for the first night in Tokyo, the bed feels too big being alone. He has never been one to have trouble sleeping in Hotel rooms, or get lonely. That was before Yoongi though, and it seems like Yoongi has awakened a lot of things in Hoseok he didn’t know were possible, hence the reason he is laying in bed awake at four in the morning unable to sleep because Yoongi is not by his side. Hoseok realizes it’s been a long time since he’s been separated from Yoongi. Despite the older most likely being asleep by now, Hoseok decides to call him. It’s only been barely 24 hours, but he already misses the sound of Yoongi’s voice. Surprisingly, after two rings, Yoongi picks up. “Hoseokkie?” he says, his voice still laced with sleep. “Hey baby, I’m sorry for waking you up.” Hoseok replies. Yoongi clears his throat, “No it’s fine,” he sounds more awake now, “Is everything okay? It’s four in the morning.”Hoseok hums, “Mm-hm everything is fine, just missed your voice.”Yoongi giggles and the sound is like music to Hoseok’s ears, “It hasn’t even been a whole day yet.”Hoseok smiles, even though Yoongi can’t see him, “I know I know,” he says, “I just can’t stand being separated from you.”“Couldn’t sleep huh? I was having trouble too.”“How was your night?” Hoseok decides to ask, thinking of any way to keep Yoongi on the phone as long as possible.“Jimin came over with Taehyung and Jungkook and we had some drinks. It was nice, they are staying in the guest room right now.”“That does sound nice, I’m glad you had fun.”“It would have been more fun with you here.” There’s a silent pause, the two of them just enjoying being with each other, even if only over the phone. Yoongi finally speaks up again and says, “Well it’s really late and I’m sure you have a busy day, you should get some sleep Hobi.”“Mhm I’ll try.”“And don’t skip your meals,” Yoongi reminds.Hoseok chuckles, “I won’t.”“I love you.”“I love you too baby.” The line goes dead after that. Hoseok falls asleep soon after with a smile on his face.  
Yeah, they’ll be alright.

----- CHAPTER BREAK -----

“Con Calma? You want that to be the song that plays for your first dance?” Jimin asks, not judging, but not quite approving either. Much like Taehyung had taken over the planning for Namjoon and Seokjin’s wedding, Jimin insisted that since he is Yoongi’s platonic soulmate, he had no choice but to take on the role as wedding planner. It is the day after their little sleepover, Jungkook and Taehyung had left but Jimin stayed behind to discuss music choices for the wedding. It’s not like Yoongi wasn’t expecting this reaction when he had suggested Con Calma to Jimin for his and Hoseok’s first dance, but it’s not like he didn’t have a reason for it either. “It was the song that was playing when we danced together for the first time ever,” Yoongi explains, “I think it would be a nice full circle moment.”Jimin giggles, “You’ve really become the biggest sap ever Yoongs.” Yoongi shrugs, “Maybe, but anyways I’m sure. I want that to be our first dance.” That night they first met had been one of the best nights of Yoongi’s life, and he found himself wanting to relive it in some way.  **** 
Con Calma- Daddy Yankee & Snow
 
{flashback to the night Yoongi and Hoseok first met}
  The nightclub is stuffy and hot. There’s flashing lights, the dance floor is packed full of sweaty bodies dancing against each other, and Yoongi observes the scene from his stool at the bar. He had come here to relieve some stress from school, he doesn’t go clubbing often, but he did every once in a while when he wanted to relieve stress. Usually he went with Jimin and Jungkook, but both of them were busy tonight and couldn’t come; so Yoongi dressed up in a loose black button up tucked into a pair of ripped black jeans, he fluffed up his jet black hair and topped the whole outfit with a thick black choker and three dangly silver earrings in each of his ears. Now he was here, sipping on a fruity alcoholic drink, he always preferred the fruity ones, hoping for some cute boy he could dance the night away with to approach him.   Soon enough, his wish comes true, and he spots a boy who looks slightly younger than him giving him suggestive eyes from the edge of the dance floor. The other boy is wearing a simple white v neck with a designer looking bomber jacket layered over it, and hair styled to expose his forehead, Yoongi thinks he looks absolutely stunning. He keeps his eyes locked on the other boy across the club, wraps his lips around the straw in his drink, and finishes it. Filled with liquid courage, he decides to finally approach the mysterious stranger. “Are you going to keep staring or ask me to dance?” Yoongi asks with a flirty smile. The other boy chuckles lightly, “What’s your name pretty boy?”“Yoongi, and yours?”“Hoseok,” the other responds holding out his hand, “well Yoongi will you dance with me?”Yoongi takes Hoseok’s hand, “Lead the way.”    The first thing Yoongi notices about Hoseok when they begin to dance is that Hoseok really knows how to move. Hoseok grips Yoongi’s waist and guides his movements, there's a reggaeton song blasting through the club, and Hoseok hits every beat with his movements. Yoongi is immediately entranced by this boy and quickly lets loose, letting Hoseok turn him around and hold him tight against his chest. Yoongi grinds his hips against Hoseok as Hoseok’ hands travel up and down his body. They sway back and forth to the beat of the music. Yoongi doesn’t think he’s ever had a better dancing partner. The reggaeton fits Hoseok really well, he thinks, Hoseok knows how to move just right to fit the music and helps Yoongi along by keeping his grip on Yoongi’s waist to guide him along. It’s like Hoseok was made for this, made to dance and made to dance with Yoongi.   They continue to dance, switching their position so Yoongi’s arms are hooked around Hoseok’s neck and they hold eye contact. Yoongi is usually shy, cowering under intense eye contact, but he finds himself never wanting to look away from Hoseok. He doesn’t know how or when, but soon enough Hoseok is close enough to the point that Yoongi can feel his hot breath against his lips. The alcohol makes everything a little hazy, but one of them ends up closing the gap and their lips are moving smoothly against each other. Hoseok tastes like cigarettes and something sweet that Yoongi can’t quite place and it’s absolutely intoxicating. He thinks he could probably kiss Hoseok forever and never get tired of it.     Eventually Hoseok ends up pulling away and moves down to leave open mouthed kisses down Yoongi’s neck. “You look so pretty tonight Yoongi,” Hoseok compliments, “so so pretty.” His tone is low, absolutely sexy. Yoongi basks in the praise, to be blatantly honest he has a praise kink and Hoseok is feeding right into it. Hoseok gives a roll of his hips that makes Yoongi slip out a breathy moan, he wasn’t planning on sleeping with anyone that night but if Hoseok keeps going like this he just might. “Oh you like that hm?” Hoseok asks with that same low tone and punctuates the question with another grind of his hips.“Hoseok please,” Yoongi breathes against the other boy’s lips. Hoseok grabs at Yoongi’s ass, “Tell me what you want.”“Let’s get out of here,” Yoongi was feeling needy and he needed to be taken care of now before Hoseok drove him crazy.    That’s how he ended up in that stairwell, getting lost in the taste of sweetness and cigarettes on Hoseok’s lips, Hoseok eventually tugging Yoongi’s choker off and leaving a hickey in its place, and Yoongi being reduced to a whining mess desperate to get off in any way possible and Hoseok giving him just what he wanted.  
{end of flashback}
 ****
 So yes, Yoongi wants Con Calma to be his first dance with Hoseok. It’s not the most traditional choice for a wedding, well it’s not traditional at all, but it’s a special memory for Yoongi and he wants to add a second part to that memory. Jimin leaves a little while later after they sort out some more details for the wedding and finally decide to call it a day. It’s almost immediately after Jimin leaves that Hoseok calls Yoongi, almost like he somehow knew Yoongi had been busy up until now. 
 
“Hoseokkie!” Yoongi greets as he answers the phone, much more lively than when he had done it at four in the morning when Hoseok had called.

“Hi baby, how was your day?” Hoseok asks, Yoongi can tell Hoseok is smiling on the other end of the line.

“It was really good, I did some more planning for the wedding with Jimin today,” Yoongi answers, “I chose the song for our first dance, but you can absolutely disagree and we will decide on something else.”

“What did you choose?”

“Con Calma.”

Hoseok hums, “Hmm that’s the very first song we ever danced to together when we first met.”

Yoongi nods despite Hoseok not being able to see him, “I know it’s not the most normal song for a first dance, but I figured it’d be a nice full circle moment.”

Hoseok laughs a little on the other end of the line, “I think it’s perfect. We aren’t the most normal couple, it’s fitting isn't it?”

“Yeah,” Yoongi responds thoughtfully, “I really think it is.” There’s some silence for a moment before Yoongi changes the topic and asks, “How was your day Hobi?”

“It was very frustrating,” Hoseok says matter of factly, “I never seem to have a good time when I have to come fix the problems with this club.”

“I’m sorry to hear that, I wish I could be there with you.” Yoongi says a little sadly.

“It’s okay baby, we’ll be together tomorrow.”

“I know, I still miss you though,” Yoongi admits.

“I miss you too,” Hoseok replies, “How about I make it up to you tomorrow night.”

Yoongi giggles, he’s not oblivious, much like when Hoseok said it during his first business trip, he is referring to sex. Yoongi doesn’t mind though, it’s only been two days but he finds that he already misses the younger’s touch. “How will you make it up to me?” Yoongi still asks, deciding to play innocent.

“I guess you’ll have to wait and see.”

Yoongi can just picture the devilish grin on Hoseok’s face right now. “You’re such a tease.”

Hoseok chuckles, “Am I?”

“Yes. Yes you are.” 
 
   The two of them continue to talk and laugh like that for so long that Yoongi loses track of time. He feels like Hoseok is there with him, even if they are just talking through the phone, and that is one of his favorite things about talking to Hoseok. Yoongi doesn’t know how he does it, but he makes Yoongi forget the world around him. That’s one of the questions Yoongi will always ask himself about Hoseok:

How do you do it?

----- CHAPTER BREAK -----

Hoseok has done a lot of crazy things in life, but settling down and getting married at twenty six years old has to be the craziest one. To any average person this wouldn’t seem that crazy really, he is four years away from his thirties after all and anyone else would probably be settling down. Hoseok isn’t like everyone else though, just over a year ago he was a young attractive party boy who only did one night stands and had lots of money and loved to spend it.  Not to stay that he isn’t still young and attractive, he is, but a lot of things have changed. He hasn’t picked up a single cigarette since that horrid month where Yoongi had left him, he didn’t need them anymore. He only ever smoked them to take stress off, but Yoongi is enough to take away any overwhelmed and stressed out feelings he might have now.    Hoseok realizes now how much of a mess he had been before Yoongi, and he’s really appreciative of the older for coming into his life and changing it for the better. When he had ended his brief relationship with Jaehyun, everything went downhill and life didn’t look like it would ever look up again. He felt that he was only good for sex, and that’s how he acted, using his feigned confidence as a mask. That was before Yoongi though. It was before Yoongi came and showed him that life is more than expensive gifts, partying, and hooking up with people simply for pleasure. Now, Hoseok doesn’t have to fake confidence, he knows he is enough just the way he is and he’s worth way more than what he previously let himself believe.     He really does owe everything to that one fateful night at that nightclub where he had spotted Yoongi sitting alone, looking pretty as ever, at the bar counter. Originally Hoseok had thought Yoongi would be just another hookup, another one night stand where he didn’t bother to spend the night. Maybe he didn’t realize it then, but if he really thinks about it now, it should have been clear when Yoongi first opened his mouth to ask “Are you going to keep staring or ask me to dance?” that Yoongi was going to be different. It should have been evident in the way the two of them instantly connected on the dancefloor and moved together as one that night. If not then, it most definitely should have been clear the second night they met in the very same club and Yoongi said “I want to get to know you first”  and the little flip Hoseok’s heart did after hearing that. It’s all very clear to Hoseok now that it was inevitable for the two of them to get to know each other more, leading him to quickly fall in love.     Hoseok doesn’t necessarily believe in fate or signs from the universe or destiny and things like that, but he really does believe that meeting Yoongi was always in his life plan. Yoongi had come when he was hitting his worst, and made everything better, gave his life a new meaning and a new light he didn’t know was possible. If you had asked him a year ago where he thought he would be now, he wouldn’t have had a clear answer; he would have just shrugged it off and said “who knows, I’m just having fun living in the moment”. He’s still living in the moment, enjoying every new day with Yoongi, but now he is beginning to think of his future, his future with Yoongi.     When Hoseok had told Yoongi “I’m in this baby, all the way.” , he hadn’t really thought about how much he meant it, but now it’s all clear to him. He’s in it all the way, with Yoongi all the way, he’s ready to spend the rest of his life by Yoongi’s side.Hoseok has never been this certain about anything in life, he always stuck with the philosophy that life is full of uncertainties and it’s best to go with the flow. Yoongi however, is a certainty in his life and always will be. Today is his wedding day, and as he sits there in his makeshift room at the wedding destination, he knows he’s ready. He’s ready for this. He’s certain. Yoongi is his, and always will be.  **** Yoongi’s life has always been full of unexpectancies. It was unexpected when he met Jungkook who had moved in next door all alone at the young age of fifteen all those years ago. It was unexpected when he took on the role of taking care of that young Jungkook as if he was the younger brother he never had. It was unexpected when he had decided to pursue music in school full time. Most of all though, it was unexpected when he had met Hoseok that night and found himself wanting to see the younger again afterwards. Yoongi has never minded the unexpected, he wasn’t scared of it, in fact he thought it made life more fun.     If Yoongi really thinks about it, and he has quite a few times within the past year, he and Hoseok are really an unexpected match. When they met, Yoongi had been an incredibly needy and clingy person. He constantly craved the touch, attention, and reassurance from his partners in order to feel secure and wanted in his relationships. Initially, Hoseok had not been one to really provide that, in the beginning their relationship was very lust driven. Hoseok had never really been one to reassure Yoongi that he wanted him for more than his body in the beginning and that usually would have been a big red flag for Yoongi, but something about Hoseok that Yoongi still can’t quite place made him want to stay. Now, Yoongi is glad he stayed and endured all those times of uncertainty.   Over the course of his time with Hoseok, Yoongi has learned that he doesn’t need someone to constantly remind him he’s good enough and he only needed that in the past because he didn’t believe himself that he was good enough. Hoseok has shown him, their problems aside, that Yoongi is more than good enough for himself and for others. Without Hoseok, he doesn’t know how long it would have taken for him to realize it. He’s learned a lot by being with Hoseok, his self worth aside, he’s learned that life is full of hardships. Relationships are not easy, and if you really want them to work, you have to fight for them. He’s learned communication is of utmost importance, and nothing can progress without trust.      If you would have asked Yoongi a year ago where he planned to be in two years he would’ve said “Graduated college, working to become a successful songwriter/producer”, nowhere in his response would he have even considered being married or even in a long term relationship. This was just another unexpected factor life has given Yoongi to work with. Despite that, he can’t say he regrets any of it. Yoongi doesn’t like having regrets, he believes they only take a toll on mental health in his experience. So Hoseok, he knows, will never be a regret in his life. Even if they hadn’t worked out, if they had never made up after that night in Tokyo, he still wouldn’t regret any of it. Sure if he had the chance he would go back and do things a little differently, he’d learn that they need to communicate better, but other than that he would do everything all over again to get to be with Hoseok.    Hoseok is Yoongi’s soulmate, this is something Yoongi knows for certain. He’s a believer in soulmates, destiny, and Hoseok is most definitely part of his destiny. They were destined to meet, and if it hadn’t been that night at the nightclub, then Yoongi is certain they would’ve met at some point somewhere else.    Hoseok is Yoongi’s best unexpected event in his life. Today is his wedding day, and as he sits in his makeshift room at the location they had chosen together, he is certain that this is something he will never regret. If he is certain about anything in life it is Hoseok, and Yoongi knows he was meant to spend the rest of his life with him. All in. No regrets. ****
 Yoongi didn’t necessarily want a lavish and expensive wedding, and while Hoseok respected Yoongi’s wishes, the wedding had turned out lavish. It’s a crisp mid July day, and the wedding was set on Muchangpo Beach. They had been blessed with beautiful weather and as Yoongi stood across from Hoseok everything seemed perfect. Yoongi can’t stop himself from smiling incredibly big as he looks at his soulmate across from him. The ceremony goes by seemingly fast and before he knows it, the minister is beginning the ‘I dos’.
 
“Min Yoongi, do you take Jung Hoseok as your lawfully wedded husband, in sickness and in health for as long as you may live.” 
 
Yoongi smiles impossibly wider, “I do.”
 
“Jung Hoseok, do you take Min Yoongi as your lawfully wedded husband, in sickness and in health for as long as you may live.” 
 
Hoseok smiles back, “I do.” 
 
And then they’re kissing, both of them meet in the middle and share a soft sweet kiss full of so many different emotions as their friends and close family clap in the background. It was official now, Hoseok is his and he’s never going to lose him. Yoongi doesn’t think he’s ever been happier in his entire life.

The song choice for the first dance shocks everyone who didn’t know, but Hoseok doesn’t pay attention to that. As the reggaeton song plays, his only focus is on Yoongi. Everything is different from the first time they ever danced to this song. This time, he’s dancing with his

husband

Yoongi, this time they aren’t dirty dancing fueled by alcohol. Despite the upbeat song the two of them move fluidly together, Hoseok’s hands are placed softly on Yoongi’s waist and they sway their hips as one. It’s so much better than the first time they ever danced together, Hoseok thinks, and they steal soft kisses through the whole thing which makes it all the more sweet. After their dance, the sun starts to set and the two of them escape to go watch the sunset on their own. They had had the wedding just in time to witness what is called ‘the moses phenomenon’ where the sea bed looks like it’s cutting the sea in two separate sections. It’s truly a breathtaking sight.
 
“It’s beautiful isn’t it?” Yoongi asks softly, resting his head on Hoseok’s shoulder with Hoseok rubbing small circles on Yoongi’s lower back as they look at the sun painting orange, pink, and red hues over the water.

Hoseok hums, “Mm-hm it is,” he says and then adds, “not as beautiful as you though.”

Yoongi giggles, it’s music to Hoseok’s ears.  “You’re cheesy.”

“You love it,” Hoseok replies, turning to look at Yoongi. Yoongi’s soft hair gently ruffles in the light breeze, the warm light from the sunset makes his honey skin glow and his eyes sparkle, and his light blush looks like it could blend with the sky. Hoseok really does think Yoongi is prettier than any sunset in the entire world.

“I do,” Yoongi says, “I love you.”

“I love you too baby, more than anything.”

There’s silence for a while, the two of them feeling safe and comfortable in each other’s presence. Yoongi watches the sunset, Hoseok watches Yoongi. Everything feels right. “Are you happy?” Yoongi asks quietly after a while.

Hoseok answers right away, “I am, more than I’ve ever been in my entire world.” He really means it. “Are you?”

Yoongi finally meets Hoseok’s soft gaze, “I am. We’ve had a lot of ups and downs but I would do it all again to be in this moment here with you.”

Hoseok chuckles softly, “Now who's the cheesy one?”

“Shut up,” Yoongi mumbles before deciding to kiss Hoseok. The two of them stay like that, lazily making out as the sun goes down. It doesn’t get heated or rushed, just slow and comfortable. Yoongi feels at home at Hoseok’s lips, he feels at home with Hoseok. This is certainly an unexpected turn of events in his life, but he wouldn’t change it for the world because he’s finally home. With Hoseok, and nothing is ever going to change that.

****

“Look who finally decided to join us!” Jimin chirps when Yoongi and Hoseok finally find their friends after watching the sunset and doing rounds to speak with Yoongi’s family members.

“Welcome to the married club,” Seokjin says with a smile, “how does it feel?”

“I couldn’t be happier.” Yoongi answers and Hoseok nods in agreement.

“You two are certainly an unexpected pair, but it’s so clear you were meant for each other,” Namjoon observes and the rest of the group hums in agreement.

“You three are next,” Hoseok says to the three youngest of their group, clearly without thinking much.

Taehyung laughs, “I’m not quite sure how that would work,” he says, “but in spirit sure!” Jimin’s blush does not go unnoticed by Yoongi.

“SO when and where is the honeymoon?” Jungkook asks excitedly.

“We aren’t really doing one,” Yoongi answers with a shrug, “I’m busy with school, Seok has work, we’re fine just being with each other. This wedding is more than enough.”

“That’s so sappy,” Taehyung comments with a smile, “but it’s sweet, I’m really happy for you two.”

“You know Hoseok hyung I never liked you,” Jimin starts and Yoongi frowns, but Jimin continues, “

but

I can see how happy you make Yoongs and I couldn’t ask for anything more. So please, just continue to make him happy.”

Hoseok tightens his grip on Yoongi’s waist and the older blushes, “I plan on it. I never want to see him upset.”

Jimin gives a soft smile, “Good.”

Seokjin clears his throat and raises his champagne glass slightly, “A toast,” he says, “to the newlyweds. May they live happily ever after.”

The group giggles and raises their glasses as well, and they all drink to Seokjin’s toast.

The rest of the night goes by all too quickly for Hoseok, but he tries his best to save each and every moment for his memory. This has to be the best night of his life, and he doesn’t want to ever forget it. This is it, this is everything he realizes he’s ever wanted.

This is his happy ending.

----- CHAPTER BREAK -----

{three years later}

Jimin

Whoever came up with the expression ‘two is a party, three is a crowd’ was incredibly wrong if you ask Jimin. In his opinion, three is a perfect number. Him, Taehyung and Jungkook are three, and they are perfect. Their relationship is a bit different from what’s considered the “norm” but then again it really isn’t. The three of them love each other just like any other couple does, the three of them go on dates like any other couple, and they live together like any other long term couple does. So in Jimin’s eyes, they are just like any other ‘normal’ couple.

It’s been three years since they had realized their feelings for each other and decided to give this relationship a try, and it’s been the best three years of Jimin’s life. Of course, there have been rough patches, it’s to be expected when learning how to navigate a polyamorus relationship. There have been times where things looked like they might not work out, but in the end they always did. The most important thing Jimin has learned is that communication is absolutely essential for everyone to feel comfortable and loved. That had been something the three of them had to work on a lot, but by now they’ve worked out all those communication issues and insecurities and in Jimin’s eyes things couldn’t be going any better.

Over the past three years, the three of them had graduated college and were starting to work in their respective fields. Jimin had gotten a job as a choreographer for a well known dance company, Jungkook was working as an editorial photographer, and Taehyung ended up being signed on as a songwriter for a big entertainment company. The three of them had moved into a bigger home, and they are all just

so happy

. Everyone always talks about the ‘honeymoon phase’ of a relationship and if that is a real thing, Jimin doesn’t think they’ve ever left it.

By now Jimin had come clean about his two boyfriends to his parents, and at first it had been very hard for them to grasp; however, they quickly realized that these two boys made their son very happy and accepted Taehyung and Jungkook as part of the family with warm open arms. Taehyung’s parents had taken a little longer to come around, but eventually they had ended up the same as Jimin’s parents. Unfortunately Jungkook’s parents still never wanted to see the boy again, and Jimin did his best with Taehyung to make the youngest feel loved and a part of their families. Jungkook had insisted he was fine all the time, but Jimin was smart enough to know it still bothered the younger from time to time. They could only do their best to make Jungkook feel better with endless cuddles, kisses and kind words to coax him back to happiness whenever this happened.

Three years later and Jimin really can say he’s the happiest and most in love he’s ever been. He never thought he’d end up with two loving boyfriends in his life, but he’s so happy he did. Taehyung and Jungkook are his soulmates, he’s sure of it. He thinks he’ll probably spend the rest of his life with these two boys if they wanted that as well, but for now he’s just happy being with them. He’s perfectly happy and content living one day at a time, and falling in love with Taehyung and Jungkook over and over again.

They are his home.

****

Taehyung

When Taehyung received his very first text from Jungkook all those years ago he just chuckled to himself and rolled his eyes. He figured Jungkook was just another one of Hoseok’s asshole acquaintances that he was trying to set up with him. He indulged the younger just for fun at first, but as the days went on he found himself actually enjoying it a lot. Never did he think it would lead him to where he is now, four years after him and Jungkook had met. Never did he think it would lead him to Jimin, to both of them being his soulmates.

Jimin is different. Jimin sneaks up on you. When Taehyung had first met Jimin, he thought Jimin was a fun person to be around. Romantic feelings had never crossed his mind, at least not until after that night the three of them had sex for the first time. It was only after that he realized that Jimin was someone he didn’t think he could live without. He started noticing all the little things about Jimin that made his heart do little flips in his chest and just like that his feelings for Jimin were all of a sudden so prominent. Jimin had snuck up on him and wedged his way into being a permanent piece in Taehyung’s life without even noticing it.

Over the course of their relationship, Taehyung has changed quite a bit. For starters, he has never been a hopeless romantic, at all, but Jungkook and Jimin had turned him into the biggest hopeless romantic there is. In the beginning, he wrote so many sappy love songs about finding the two loves of his life and all that. Some of them were good, some of them weren’t when he looked back at them, but he still keeps the now tattered journal he had written them in as a reminder of the start of their love. Jimin and Jungkook had never seen them to this day, and he plans to keep it that way. Maybe one day he’ll let them read them, but for now it is his own little secret memento.

These days Taehyung really does feel like he’s walking on cloud nine. After the first rocky months of their relationship, Taehyung had started feeling that feeling of walking on cloud nine and never stopped. He loves that every single day he can come home and have his two boyfriend’s shower him with kisses and ask him how his day was. He loves that he has two warm bodies to hold him when he’s feeling down or stressed or overworked. When he had made that comment about the three of them being married in spirit at Yoongi’s and Hoseok’s wedding it was more of a joke, but now he really thinks it’s true. He doesn’t think he can ever be without Jimin and Jungkook, he wants to live the rest of his life with the two of them.

With Jimin and Jungkook he felt safe. He felt loved, and supported. He loved giving all of his love and support to his two boyfriends as well. Jimin and Jungkook are everything Taehyung will ever need in life, and more.

They are his everything.

****

Jungkook

Jungkook’s life has been full of uncertainties from the moment he moved out to Seoul all on his own at fifteen. They had all been the type of uncertainties that scared him, until Taehyung and Jimin happened. Jimin has been in his life since high school, he had always felt the older was very important to him, but it was only after their first night together with Taehyung that he really realized what kind of importance that was. Jimin seems to sneak up like that. Jungkook thinks Jimin is the type of person that has you captivated with him before you even realize it. He had discussed that with Taehyung quite a few times, it’s something they both love about him.

Taehyung grabbed Jungkook’s attention immediately from the first time he saw him at that cafe with Hoseok. He had been really nervous to text him at first, feeling a little creepy because Taehyung had no idea who he was; however, when Taehyung had kept responding to him he felt extremely happy. He quickly fell for the older, even before they met in person officially for the first time. After that first meeting they were inseparable.

Now they had Jimin, and the three of them are inseparable and Jungkook wouldn’t have it any other way. There were a lot of times over the course of three years that Jungkook fell into negative mental states, whether it be in self confidence or about his parents or anything else in between. Now each and every one of those times Jimin and Taehyung stick by his side, listening to him talk, lifting him up with encouraging words, or just cuddling him and holding him close to remind him that they were there and were never going to leave.  Jungkook couldn’t ask for anything more in life. They spoil him a lot too, and Jungkook definitely didn’t complain about that.

Jungkook is still young, he’s only just now reaching his mid twenties and he has a lot to figure out about life. There’s one thing he knows for certain though, he never wants Taehyung and Jimin to leave his side. He wants to spend the rest of his life with the two of them, he doesn’t think he can live without them anymore. He never thought he would be at this place so early in his life, but here he is and he wouldn’t change it for the world. Jimin and Taehyung are his entire world. He would take out all the stars in the sky for them. They make him feel safe and loved and he can’t ask for anything more.
 
Jimin and Taehyung are his safe space.

----- CHAPTER BREAK -----

{three years later}

Namjoon and Seokjin both have very busy schedules, their professions never let them be in the same place at the same time so finding time for each other is very difficult for the two of them. It’s something the pair had struggled with in the beginning of their relationship, and again in the beginning of their marriage. It had almost driven them to separate on one occasion. After this, they had both decided a conversation was much needed between the two of them. So one day, Namjoon finally brought it up while they when Seokjin had finally come home to bed with him…

“Hyung you’re home.” Namjoon says with a smile, cuddling up to Seokjin as the older got himself comfortable in bed.

“Mm-hm, it was a long day.” Seokjin hums.

“I never get to see you much anymore…” Namjoon drifts quietly, “do you have to work so much?”

“Do you?” Seokjin challenges.

Namjoon lets out a sigh, “We can’t continue like this Jinnie.”

“What do you mean?” Seokjin asks, he keeps his eyes closed, most likely exhausted from the long day he undoubtedly had.

“We never see each other,” Namjoon points out sadly, “it’s going to start putting a strain on us, it already has. And what happens if...if we decide we want to start a family one day?”

Seokjin opens his eyes now and looks down at Namjoon, nothing but love in his dark eyes, “What are we going to do though? We can’t just stop working.”

“I know, but we have more than enough money to be comfortable right? I can start taking a lighter caseload so I don’t spend so much time in the office or at court.” Namjoon suggests.

“But you love being a lawyer, why would I take that away from you?”

“I do love being in court, but not as much as I love you. It’s not like I’m stopping completely, just taking on a bit less work.”

Seokjin nods in understanding, “I suppose I could spend less time on call, and maybe stick to my usual patients more often.”

“I just want to make sure we can stay together and maintain a healthy relationship.”

Seokjin smiles, “I know Joon, and we will. We can figure this out.”

Namjoon tilts his head up and places a kiss on Seokjin’s lips, “I love you Jinnie. Now get some sleep, you sound exhausted.”

The two of them had ended up figuring it out, not wanting to lose each other. In fact, about two and a half years into their marriage they had made the decision to start a family. They adopted two adorable twins, Jihoon and Sanghoon, who were three years old. When Namjoon first saw the twins he immediately fell in love with them, Seokjin did too and by the way he observed Namjoon lovingly interact with them, he knew he couldn’t say no. It was meant to be.

Parenthood has to be the biggest challenge Seokjin thinks he’s ever faced. He had read countless parenting books before officially bringing the twins home, but really nothing could compare to how it actually was trying to reign in the two adorable little boys full of energy. There have been a lot of times where he questioned whether or not he was actually giving his two little boys a good home, but everytime he felt that way Namjoon was always there to comfort him and reassure him he is an amazing father. His favorite things to do with Jihoon and Sanghoon were take them to the park and just watch them while they enjoyed playing on the playground or occasionally petting a dog and Jihoon going

“Daddy look, it’s so fluffy and cute! Can we take it home?”

Seokjin would have to explain that the dog wasn’t theirs so they couldn’t and Jihoon would get this adorable little pout on his face. Jihoon loves dogs, he’s been begging Namjoon and Seokjin to get one for a while now, but Seokjin is still figuring out kids there is no way he’d have time to take care of a dog. Sometimes Namjoon chimes in with the kids on asking for a dog and he silently curses his husband. This is the life Seokjin thinks he’s always wanted, he couldn’t be any happier. He has Namjoon, he has Jihoon and Sanghoon, and they are all he needs in life.

They are his home.

Namjoon loves being a dad. When he first found out they would be able to take Jihoon and Sanghoon home, he immediately dragged Seokjin on a shopping trip and bought a ton of toddler clothes and shoes, probably more than they needed. He had also had an absolute field day decorating the little boys’ shared bedroom, filling it with earthy toned furniture and nature wall decals. Seokjin had pretty much let Namjon do whatever he wanted. When they took Sanghoon and Jihoon home, Namjoon led the boys to their new room, each of them holding one of his hands, and excitedly showed them all their new clothes and then gave them a house tour. They were only three years old, but Sanghoon and Jihoon were incredibly excited about it all. Namjoon loves spending time with his boys, he loves taking them on picnics by the Han River and taking them on walks through the park. He feels like he was always meant to be a father and he loves these two little boys with his whole entire being.

Namjoon and Seokjin had introduced the kids to their friends about a month after taking them home, not wanting to overwhelm the boys too much as they were still adjusting to the new environment. Sanghoon seemed to have taken a liking to Yoongi the most. Maybe it is because they both share a rather quiet and observant personality, but whenever they bring the kids around him Sanghoon clings to Yoongi. He climbs in Yoongi’s lap and plays with Yoongi’s hair, and Yoongi seems to like it a lot. He flashes a gummy smile at the toddler and speaks with him, or just lets him sit there and observe the rest of the group. Sanghoon and Yoongi are scarily alike. Jihoon on the other hand, loved Jungkook. He would cling to Jungkook and make him play games, but Jungkook never minded it at all. Watching their kids take a liking to their friends so much was comforting to Namjoon and Seokjin. The both of them had talked about it on multiple occasions, and it made them feel all the more content and happy with the life they had built for themselves.
 
   The pair had been through quite a bit of bumps throughout their long relationship; however, now everything seemed perfect. They are just as in love as they were when they first met, and now they have two beautiful children to add to their family and give their love to. Nothing is ever perfect in life, but Namjoon and Seokjin both firmly believe that they had built a life that is as close to perfect as it gets. They have found a home in each other, and in Sanghoon and Jihoon.

This is their happy ending and Namjoon and Seokjin could not possibly be happier.

----- CHAPTER BREAK -----

{three years later}

Hoseok is the happiest he’s ever been, Yoongi truly is like a gift from the universe. They’ve been married for three years now, and every day he falls in love with the older all over again. Also whoever said that sex gets dull after marriage was very wrong, or maybe they just didn’t have someone like Yoongi. Everything they do in bed feels new and very

very

pleasurable. Honestly Hoseok has no idea what he did to deserve Yoongi, but he decided a long time ago not to question it.

Sex aside, his life with Yoongi is better than he could have ever imagined it to be. Yoongi graduated college and was working with a small up and coming music production company and Hoseok was still thriving in his business. The two of them still live in the apartment they bought together, but one thing is different. The guest room is now turned into a little girl’s room. The moment Hoseok saw Yoongi interact with Sanghoon, Hoseok knew he wanted a child of his own. He knew Yoongi would make a perfect dad, and after several long thought out conversations the two of them decided they were ready. Hoseok and Yoongi have made a lot of decisions on the whim in their relationship, but both of them knew that a child should not be one of these decisions. They thought about it long and hard, and when it came down to it both Yoongi and Hoseok were absolutely positive this is what they wanted. This was about two years into their marriage.

Now they have just welcomed Haneul, an adorable little five year old girl into their home. Yoongi may not outwardly show it all the time, but Hoseok knows that he absolutely adores the little girl. Yoongi tends to be more reserved, but with Haneul he becomes more animated and energetic. He speaks to the little girl with so much love and affection and his adorable gummy smile is always on display. Hoseok didn’t think he could be any more in love with Yoongi than he was when he married him, but watching Yoongi with their daughter made Hoseok fall even deeper.

Years ago, Hoseok never really saw a future for himself. He never saw himself being happy or moving past his playboy activities. Hoseok stuck himself in a cycle of drinking, partying, hooking up and repeating, and there was a point in time where he was stuck. He was stuck, and felt like he would never be able to find his way out. Yoongi turned out to be his light in the dark. Yoongi painted the world in new colors Hoseok had never seen before. Yoongi is like a dream you never want to wake up from, except Yoongi is real and belongs to Hoseok. Hoseok is so

so

lucky to be able to call Yoongi his, his lover, his husband, his soulmate.

Yoongi is his safe place. Yoongi, and now Haneul, is his home. 
   
   Yoongi has always pictured many scenarios for how his life would turn out, and married with a kid was never one of them. Someone like Hoseok was never in them. Despite that, Yoongi is sure Hoseok is the best thing that has ever happened to him. Before Hoseok, Yoongi was very closed off. He never let himself fall too hard or get too comfortable because of his insecurities and fear of rejection. It was a very toxic mindset, Yoongi knows that now. All of that seems like so far away now because now Yoongi knows he’s good enough, that he’s a loved and a valued person. Yoongi is still on the reserved side, much rather choosing to observe groups than take part in them, but now he feels more comfortable with himself. Yoongi really is happy, for lack of better terms, words cannot describe how pleased he is with his current life.

Yoongi falls in love with Hoseok all over again every single day. The only difference now is that it’s the small things that touch Yoongi’s heart. It’s when Hoseok places a comforting hand on Yoongi’s thigh of lower back, it’s when Hoseok takes care of Yoongi when he’s under the weather, or it’s when Hoseok just holds Yoongi when he’s feeling down and doesn’t force him to talk and so much more. Yoongi thinks he’s truly struck gold with Hoseok. He’s never felt more comfortable with anyone else in his life.

Now there is Haneul. Haneul is the most precious little girl on this planet and Yoongi absolutely adores her. Before they had brought her home, Yoongi was so nervous. He briefly reverted back to his idea that he wouldn’t be good enough, that he would fail the little girl. Hoseok had done everything to make sure Yoongi felt comfortable, and to convince Yoongi that he would make the best dad. Yoongi had a few lingering doubts he couldn’t shake, but when he finally held Haneul in his arms in their home he knew this was everything he was meant to be in life. He absolutely adores Haneul, he loves dressing her up and doing artsy things with her like painting or letting her watch while he messed around with beats and wrote songs. Haneul always got the biggest smile on his face when she heard Yoongi play a song he made and Yoongi’s heart fluttered in his chest everytime.

Yoongi loves watching Hoseok with Haneul, he loves drifting in the back when they go on walks to observe Hoseok interact with their daughter. It’s a sight that reminds him he has everything he needs in life now. The world could crash down now, but as long as he had Hoseok and Haneul by his side, Yoongi would feel safe. Hoseok and Haneul are his family now, everything will be okay as long as they stay with him. Yoongi feels happy in the truest and purest meaning of the word.

Hoseok and Yoongi have been through a lot. They have been to hell and back if you ask Hoseok, but that all seems like ancient history now. It may have hurt at the time, but Hoseok thinks all those troubling times with Yoongi were necessary for them to come to the level of comfort and understanding  they are at now with each other. Back then, Hoseok didn’t know what he had until he lost it. He didn’t realize what a significant presence Yoongi had in his life until he had lost Yoongi and he vowed he would never lose the older ever again. He wouldn’t trade his years with Yoongi for the world.

Hoseok goes on living day by day, knowing he will wake up to his soulmate next to them and their beautiful daughter in the next room. He has everything he needs right there in that apartment. Hoseok has never really had family, but now he does. Now he has a family that loves him and cares for him and hopefully will for the rest of his life. This is it. This really is a happy ending.
