DISCOVERING LIFE(NAMJIKOOK,TAEGI,HOPEJIN)

CHAPTER 17

Namjoon wakes up to something warm and wet over his face with a heavy breathing sound near his ear. He rubs his eyes out to see Min Holly hovering above him patiently waiting for Namjoon to wake up and get petted by his favorite human other than his 2 owners. Realizing that he is in his hyung's house he gets up to finish his bathroom routine and hurries over to the kitchen to do some help. He watched as Yoongi cooked and Hobi cleaned the kitchen, looking like a complete domestic pair and wondering why instead of marrying each other they are trying to break it off. "Good morning nyammie."Hoseok greeted him followed by Yoongi. Namjoon helped them to set the table for breakfast and gave food for Holly too. They sat down, having breakfast and having silly talks. While clearing the table, "Hey Joonie, do you want to say why you were out in the park yesterday? It might take things out of your shoulder." Yoongi asked as he placed the Kimchi container into the fridge. "Only if you feel comfortable and want to." Yoongi patted Joon's shoulder when saw the hesitancy and stopped questioning it further. After another 30 mins of lazing on the couch and playing video games, Joon made a deal. "If I win, You have to do as I ask you to do, likewise If you win I'll do what you ask me to." Grinning at the chance all three boys push, laugh, and fall while playing the game. "I won, so..." Yoongi dragged out his words, "You have to convince Seokjin and Taehyung to yes to our agreement. " Joon remembered that his friends had actually met Yoongi and HoSeok. "What agreement?" Joon's questioning confused Hoseok as well as Yoongi. "You don't know?" Namjoon nodded.

"Can we talk about what business you want to do with me?" Tae asked the couple.

" We are forced to marry each other by our parents. We want to stop this marriage by showing them that we are in a relationship with others." Yoongi looked at Hoseok before continuing, " We came up with the idea of a fake boyfriend and I thought you would be a suitable candidate for me. We are still looking for a candidate for Hoseok though." Tae was bewildered. " Hold on, so what if I fall for you? I don't want to sign up for some shit swearing I won't fall for you then end up heartbroken." Tae voiced his concern. "There is no such condition like that. If something involving emotions and feelings occurs during the period we can talk it out." Tae nodded. "For Mr. Jung you said is looking for a candidate right? My friend Seokjin has an interest in you, will you consider him?" Hoseok looked at Yoongi wanting some reassurance for the turn of events. Yoongi silently squeezed Hoseok's hand making Hoseok nod.

"Jin hyung, can you come here for a minute?" When Jin came to the table he had changed to a light pink Tee with ripped jeans showing his thighs. A speck of pink dust formed on Hoseok's cheeks. The couple explained the situation to the elder again as he seated himself comfortably. But before Jin could reply to anything, his phone's alarm rang. The elder checked his phone and noticed that the younger in the house hadn't replied to anything for the past 45 mins making Jin worry " Excuse us." Jin signaled Tae and walked to the staff-only room. "Joon hasn't been replying before you comfort me I have some gut feeling telling something is wrong. These two can wait. Anyhow, we need time to think it out and can't take the decision in the spur of the moment. Do you also feel the same?" Tae thought for a few seconds and agreed with Jin. They hurried out and told them an emergency arose at home where their presence is needed and they would give their answer as soon as possible with their sets of conditions if they end up saying ok to the arrangement. Seeing how they hurried out, the couple offered them a ride. They dropped off a very worried Jin and a painstakingly silent Tae.

"Oh." was all Namjoon could reply, again falling into the pit of self-criticism, scolding himself that if he hadn't pulled up the tantrum all his friends might have gotten together now. Yoongi pulled Joon out of his thoughts by asking for a pinky promise, making Joon chuckle. Joon realized that no matter how many hours he spend here he needs to return to his home, his angels making Joon sigh. "If you had won, what did you plan to ask?" Hoseok asked. Joon sheepishly looked on the floor. Honestly, he knew his friends' crushes on the couple but hadn't taken any actions cause he wasn't sure whether his old friends would recognize him. Now that they recognized him he wanted to set up a trip with all 4 of them and know each other. "Come on." Hobi nudged. " I wanted to ask you guys out for a trip along with my friends. We were planning to go this weekend." The couple grinned thinking this as an opportunity to know the boys they might end up fake dating. "You need not win a game to ask us this. We would happily come with you."Joon squealed and hugged Holly, "Will you bring him too?" Joon asked with pleading eyes. How could they say no? So chuckled as they ruffled Holly fur. "Shouldn't you ask your friends too?" Joon's eyes looked like a deer caught in headlights. "Sorry hyungs, I gotta run back to my house before Jin hyung personally whoops my ass for worrying him to death." Joon panicked as he gathered his things. "Wait, I'll drop you." Hoseok took the car keys. "I'll come too, anyhow we gotta meet them. Why not now?" Hoseok agreed. Within a few minutes, the trio reached Joon's house and rang the house bell. "I hope this is Joonie." Jin's worried voice could be heard. As soon as the door opened, Jin's leg gave out, and ended up crying with his body crouched down to the floor. When Tae didn't see Jin after going to open the door he got worried and reached out the door to see Jin on the floor crying and Joon trying to console him. Tae, being mad at Joon for walking out on them when even they weren't at fault, ignored Joon's presence as he scooped up the older and walked over to the sofa. Tae went into the kitchen to grab some water when he heard angry Jin's rap. A smile made its way to his lips. When Tae reached the sofa, Joon was on his knees apologizing. Tae twisted Joon's ear, " If you ever walk out on us, remember this pain." He smirked. Joon glared at him, "Fine, now can I get a hug?" Joon asked with a pout. Using Joon's cute charms he finally made his angels forgive him.

"I have got a surprise for you." Joon ran to the door. "Come in hyungs."

Tae and Jin were slightly shocked.

"Mr. Min and Mr. Jung? Welcome." The men welcomed the couple with a red face.
