"Woohoo! I won, yes!" Yoongi hears Jeongguk boast as he does a victory lap around the ring. "My grand prize is a date with Yoongi-hyung! Sorry Ji...Jimin-ssi?" He tones it down once he sees the crowd, show staff directing the other contestants to give space.
Yoongi is in the middle of it, covering his eyes because it's too much to bear. He remembers the thump, how it was so heavy against the hard dirt, dust flying up. He slowly uncovers his eyes to see Jimin being hauled away on a stretcher of sorts, black hair fanning out messily. He can hear Jimin tell the dispersing crowd with a waving hand that it's not that bad, but when he looks at Yoongi, his face distorts in pain at a certain shift in his right shoulder.
Guess we'll have matching shoulder injuries. Wait that's a terrible thought.
Speaking of shoulders, he feels a hand on his. It's Jeongguk looking guiltily in Jimin's direction. Then Jeongguk shifts focus and puts a hand to his ear for a split second, though Yoongi barely notices because Jeongguk is bowing? He's actually on one knee, cowboy hat off and held over his chest.
"W-What are you doing?" Yoongi asks panicked.
"Min Yoongi-ssi, although the battle was brutal, your winner has returned."
"My winner?" Yoongi is astonished at this wild turn of events, but he takes the ease in mood that Jeongguk is humorously offering. He puts his hands on his hips and looks up with a deep breath. "Yeah, sure alright."

Yoongi was given a whole tuxedo outfit for his date later tonight with Jeongguk. He assumes Jeongguk was given one as well. He's excited to get to know him one-on-one, or so he tells himself. In the back of his mind, he's definitely still thinking about Jimin, but he's not going to let that ruin a date with the bunny boy. He's still looking forward to it however. It's been a while since he's been on a real date, even though it's on a set of reality TV and there are cameras on him the whole time.
The date is simple, a small table set out in the middle of the grassy backyard, heat lamps and fairy lights setting the romantic mood. A cart of food stands beside the table, which has maybe too many utensils set. It's cute and cozy, reminding him of the first restaurant he worked at.
