"If so then I have a request—"

Namjoon had never seen the look the crown prince had in his eyes. Taehyung grabbed Jimin's wrist as he pulled his hand away.

"Don't touch him"

Jimin smirked as he watched Taehyung push Namjoon behind him.

"Why? The king gave him to both of us"

"You've always have to have what I have! Why can't you just leave him alone?! He's mine!"

"Hahahaha! Because I don't want to see you happy!"

Taehyung was about to punch Jimin when Namjoon stopped his punch. Jimin and Taehyung looked over at Namjoon who looked upset.

"Crown prince Jimin, I suggest you leave the garden before I let the king know that you are causing a disturbance with prince Taehyung's classes"

Taehyung smiled as Jimin was upset.

"Also I am not an item that was gifted to prince's. I am a person and prince's should never address/view others as such. I will not allow you both to become used to that mindset"

"...forget it" said Jimin as he left.

Taehyung smiled happily as he "won" till he noticed Namjoon was not smiling.

"Prince Taehyung, a future ruler does not raise his hand to anyone for anything. You should learn to hold your tongue before rebutting in front of your elders. You have lots to learn"

Taehyung pouted as he hated being yelled/disciplined. Namjoon noticed as he ruffled Taehyung's hair.

""Thank you prince for trying to protect me. I good ruler does everything to protect others"

Taehyung blushed as Namjoon smiled at him. Taehyung then grabbed Namjoon's hand. Namjoon confused at the action.

"What about love? Would you say it's wrong what I did if it was for love?"

Namjoon was quiet as he didn't know how to respond. Taehyung chuckled as he let go and went back to his painting. Namjoon barely knew about love so how could he respond to Taehyung.

Namjoon walked in the palace court yard on his way to teach the prince's when he bumped into Jungkook. Jungkook happily greeted Namjoon.

"Namjoon-hyung!"

"Jungkook-ah...you look good"

"Thanks hyung, I'm getting used to the uniform"

"How has your assignment been going?"

"I've been learning a lot to protect the royal family"

"I'm glad to hear Jungkook-ah"

"...You know I haven't seen you in a long time hyung. Are you avoiding me?"

"No...I've just been busy Jungkook-ah. You know I would never avoid you"

"Okay, I'm glad you aren'y avoiding me. It would hurt if I knew that I pushed you away. You know that you are my favorite person in the entire world"

"Don't say things like that Jungkook-ah"

"It's the truth!"

"Okay, I believe you...just don't be loud about it"

"...Hyung, I want to apologize for that night-"

"-Jungkook-ah, why don't we talk somewhere else another time?"

"Oh okay hyung"

Jungkook watched as Namjoon hurried off to his assignment.
