A few months later, in which they are now best friends.
(4 Months after the 'Coffee-Cup invitation')

As Hoseok lazily rolled on his bed, his phone went of for the fourth time. At this point, he could care less who it was; he wanted them to shut up. He picked up his phone, looking at the messages being sent. Hoseok groaned, reading the culprits contact name.
'Mean Man.'
He rattled off a reply, rubbing his eyes. He knew that Jungkook was only trying to annoy him, but really? At 7 in the morning?
Message Received 7:48 AM
Mean Man: Hey
Mean Man: Hey Hoseok
Mean Man: Hoooooseok
Mean Man: U should come to the coffee shop
You: I hope you know I am still older than you and if I come down there with you speaking like that I WILL be hitting you
Mean Man: o rip
Mean Man: nah
You: Petty.
Mean Man: Oh look, Tae just came in
Mean Man: I guess I don't need u anymore
You: I'll be there in 10
Hoseok threw the covers off, quickly shuffling to his closet to put on a proper set of clothes. He wasn't jealous, he just didn't like Jungkook saying he didn't need Hoseok. That's what he wanted to believe, at least.
He headed out after getting ready, eventually making it to the small bakery. He dramatically opened the door, loudly announcing his arrival as the customers (and employees) all turned to glare at him. Jungkook quickly ran to Hoseok's proud form, enveloping him in a hug. The elder ordered as per usual, sitting at the open table by the window. Kim Taehyung, who was surprisingly actually there, sat across from him, flashing a distant smile as Jungkook pulled off his brown apron to join them. He took a seat next to Taehyung, handing Hoseok his coffee and Tae a small Cake Roll. Both of their faces lit up, quickly smiling at Jungkook, practically blessing him for the treats he provided. Hoseok got to work sipping on his drink, conversing with the two men in front of him. The whole time Taehyung was giving Hoseok a sad look, but he paid no mind to it as he and Jungkook joked with eachother. They chatted for awhile before Taehyung left, saying he had to go shopping with a friend named 'Seokjin.' Jungkook stayed, despite the countless pleas from Tae. Once he was gone, though, Jungkook quickly pulled out his phone, texting the man sitting directly across from him.

Mean Man: Hoseok
Mean Man: Hoseok look at your phone
Mean Man: I KNOW YOU CAN SEE THESE I JUST SAW YOU PULL OUT YOUR CELLULAR DEVICE
You: Why are you texting me
You: You're literally sitting right in front of me
Mean Man: Because it's super awkward now and I can't deal with subtle confrontation
Mean Man: Deal with it
You: I mean, if I could handle your bullshit for almost five months, I can get over something like this.
>>Right?
Mean Man: I'd hope
You: Mm
Mean Man: Was that a sexual text?
You: What
Mean Man: 'Mm.' Are you sexting a minor?
Mean Man: Cause it looks like sexting to meeee
You: It was a non-verbal response, you idiot
Dummy: That's what they all say, u perv. Tsk, Tsk.
Dummy: Are you sure u aren't an 80 year old man who is undercover and potentially going to rape me for the sole purpose of stealing my absolute purity??
You: The world may never know
Dummy: 🌚
You: 🌝
Dummy: Anyways,,
Dummy: Would this be considered a date
You: Um?
Dummy: Cause
Dummy: I consider it one
You: Oh
You: Oh.
Dummy: Is it awkward now
You: No
You: Well, kinda.
You: But it's not a bad awkward? It's more of an 'ok awkward' that I can deal with
Hoseok looked up, seeing Jungkook smiling at his phone. He was blushing slightly, the illuminated electronic making it that much more obvious. He chuckled, locking his phone. As he set it on the table, Jungkook looked up, quickly smiling at Hoseok.
"Are you sure this isn't awkward?"
He shyly asked.
