..............."Hey, do you want to go watch the sunset at the beach?"
Yoongi looks up from his book, his warm chocolate eyes showing up a deep hazel under the beam of sunlight casting across his face. His attention is stole away from his book and towards Hoseok who watches him with a small smile.
"Will there be tons of people?" He questions and he has to clear his throat to strengthen his voice that he hadn't used in a while.
"Just us, my girlfriend, Seokjin, Jimin, Taehyung, and Jungkook. Seokjin hyung is making snacks so it'll be like a nighttime picnic." Hoseok explains, counting off on his fingers. Yoongi sighs internally at the thought of Hoseok's girlfriend but he doesn't say anything as he nods, confirming that he wants to go.
"Okay. What are you reading?"
Yoongi runs his finger along the page of the book, staring at the big words. "It's a children's book about a cat. I stole it from Jimin. It used to be my favorite."
"Oh," Hoseok mumbles as he leans over to get a better look. "Is it about the kitten that thinks the moon is a bowl of milk?"
Yoongi nods once more and bends the corner of a page to bookmark where he left off. He then looks back up at Hoseok and they make eye contact. Hoseok has a grin on his face that makes Yoongi's lip part into a small smile. He reaches down and pat Yoongi's head, this time Yoongi doesn't flinch.
"Let's get ready."
At the beach, they arrived two hours before sunset so that the littles could play in the water. Somehow along the way, Seokjin spotted Namjoon walking nearby and invited him to come as well. He had made more than enough snacks for everyone and Namjoon kind of missed having a group of people to hang out with so he joined. Now, there were eight people but it wasn't so bad since the other people were starting to leave the beach anyway.
Once the blankets, towels, and food was set up, everyone began making their way to the water except for Yoongi and Seokjin. Yoongi wore a long sleeved shirt and some shorts because he was insecure about his small build. Seokjin sat on the blanket enjoying his cocktail drink he had made with his shirt off and muscle thighs on display. Yoongi had heard him say earlier that he was dating now and that he was trying to find a potential partner at the beach.
"How have you been lately?" Seokjin asks him after a sip of his fruitfully alcoholic drink.
"I've been okay." He says honestly. He watches as Taehyung picks Jimin up and slams him down in the water. The boy pops out of the water, giggling.
"And why's that?"
Yoongi shifts so that he can pull his legs to his chest and rests his head on them. "I've been meeting with my therapist so I guess I just feel a bit better than usual. I don't have a ton of stuff bottled up anymore."
Seokjin nods and hands him a juice box. Yoongi scoffs at it but takes it anyway. It had Iron Man on it and he can only assume that Jungkook chose them. He pops the tiny straw through the top and takes a sip, glad that it's cold.
"That's nice, Yoongi. I'm glad you're doing okay. I care about you, y'know?" Jin shoots him a pointed look that makes him roll his eyes playfully.
"I know. Thank you Seokjin."
"Call me hyung."

"Hoseok, stop it!" A high pitched voice squeals over the sound of the waves crashing against the shore. She gasps happily when he feet finally touch the sand from being extended in the air by her boyfriend.
