"Hoba Hoba!" Tae called, running up to Hobi as he was getting in the car, "look! a flower! I picked it just for you, hyung, because it looks like the sun, and you're army's sun!"
Hobi stared at Taehyung, and then at the flower - an almost golden-pet...

Hobi was at the grocery store with Namjoon, Jimin, and Taehyung.
He was comparing two brands of the same product when Jimin flounced up to him, batting his eyelashes and speaking with his light, sweet voice, "hyung! Could you please buy me this?"
He held up a box of caramel candies, pouting at Hobi.
Hobi sighed, but smiled, "sure, Chim. Put them in the basket."
Hobi sometimes felt like a dad to the younger members, and even sometimes his Jin and Yoongi Hyung.
But he was always happy to make them happy.
Jimin cheered, and put the candies in the basket the older was holding.
"Thank you, hyung!" He said, before he wondered off.
Next, Namjoon came up to him a bit later, a little bashful and definitely not as dignified and sure as Jimin had been.
"Um, hyung," he called, drawing Hobi's attention from the soaps to his leader.
"What's up, Namu?" He smiled.
"Could you please buy me this?" He grinned, wiggling a packaged sleeping mask.
"Of course, Namjoon-ah. Put it in the basket," Hobi said, motioning to the basket.
Namjoon smiled, placing the item in the, almost full, basket, "thanks, hyung."
Tae had been by Hobi's side the whole time, even though Namjoon and Jimin had sort of been wondering around the store and away from the other two.
But Taehyung stayed with Hobi, even when he was known to wonder away from the group.
A sense of pride filled Hobi, that Taehyung wanted to stay with his Hobi Hyung instead of going off with the others.
It also intoxicated Hobi, the younger's warm vanilla smell rushing into his nose, making him feel a bit drowsy.
He turned to the younger, who looked up at him, startled.
Though he had stayed by his side this whole grocery store visit, Taehyung had also stayed completely silent, and the two acted as if he wasn't even there.
Of course, Hobi wasn't trying to be rude by ignoring Tae's presence, it's just that the younger boy was so warm next to him, and he smelled like warm vanilla and candy, and Hobi felt so nice right now, so calm, standing with him in silence, knowing he was there. He didn't feel the need to talk. He just basked in the younger's comforting presence.
