Swings and Stars (BoyxBoy: BTS Fanfiction) [Completed]

You Couldn't Have Been More Obvious

"...I like someone." Seokjin burst out in one breath.

Namjoon sighed, lifting the drink up to his mouth, earning a discreet elbow in the ribs from Yoongi. Namjoon flickered his eyes up at Yoongi, acknowledging his actions and coughing to cover it up. Yoongi struggled to hold back a giggle threatening to escape his lips.

Seokjin sighed before continuing. "...It's just that... I don't know know how to tell him, and now, it's gotten to the point where I can't hold it back anymore."

"Hmm, 'him.'" Yoongi quoted. "I'm assuming that it's a boy, yes?" He inquired, smirking. "Jimin owes me 30,000 won." He chuckled under his breath.

"Who's Jimin?" Seokjin asked, narrowing his eyes.

"E-Err... No one, haha." Yoongi laughed nervously, scratching at his nape awkwardly as a slight shade of pink dusted his cheeks. Namjoon and Seokjin exchanged a shifty yet suspicious glance followed by a long pause. Seokjin eventually broke the silence.

"Yoongi, you're useless." He shook his head, stirring his cold latté, flickering his eyes up to Namjoon. "What do you think I should do, Namjoon?" Namjoon was leant on his hand, in a daydream as he stared at Jin. Seokjin waved a hand in front of his face. "Namjoon?"

Yoongi couldn't hold back the giggle this time, nudging him.

"Yea-Yes? Wh-what- err... Yeah?" He flinched, blinking back into reality. "I mean, if you really like him, you could tell him." Seokjin bit the inside of his cheek, nodding slowly as he took in Namjoon's words. "...but you don't have to." Namjoon quickly recoiled. "You can just accept that maybe he's not for you and look for someone else. Maybe someone who's more your type; pretty tall, maybe whitish-blonde, a rapper-"

Yoongi spluttered, cutting Namjoon off quickly.

"Yeah Namjoon's right, just tell him how you really feel about him. You can't hide it forever, and if you guys are already close, he should understand."

"If not, you could always look for a rebound to bounce back on, such as-" Namjoon began once again, his words getting drowned out by an enthusiastic Seokjin.

"Really?" He blurted. "You think I should tell him?"

"Yeah, why not?" Yoongi boomed, leaning over the table to land a supportive punch on his shoulder. Seokjin beamed back, excitedly. Namjoon mumbled under breath a few words, before finally giving some supportive encouragement. Seokjin took a deep breath, biting his bottom lip.

He's going to do it. After so long, finally, he's ready to confess.

He threw on his coat that was resting on the chair next to him, tugging at the collar as he stood up.

"See you, guys." Seokjin waved, an excited yet anxious smile spread across his face.

"Go Romeo, go!" Yoongi called after him as he made his way out of the café. Yoongi's smile quickly faded however, turning back to face Namjoon. "Seriously? You couldn't have been more obvious if you tried." Yoongi sighed. Namjoon huffed out a long breath, flopping onto the table face first with a loud 'thud.'

"He likes someone." Namjoon muttered sadly under his breath. "It's too late now... Urgh, why didn't I tell him before?" He groaned into his arms.

"I did say that you should have told him you liked him when we went out together last time." Yoongi informed, leaning back in his chair as he listened the other weakly grumble in defeat into the table. "That was a fancy-ass restaurant, and you were right next to each other and you were both dressed up all nice..."

"Urgh..." Namjoon whined. "He looked so cute in that suit." He almost wailed into the table. Yoongi bit the inside of his cheek, placing a comforting hand on Namjoon's back.

"Hey, there's other guys isn't there?" Yoongi crooned consolingly, gently soothing patterns over his back. "I mean, how about I introduce you to one of Jimin's friends, he's pretty popular...?" Namjoon looked up from under his arms, staring up at Yoongi with one eyebrow raised questionably. Yoongi quickly cut himself off with a cough, his arm retracting from Namjoon's back, embarrassed.

"Jimin, huh?" Namjoon smirked. "You mentioned him earlier, didn't you?" Yoongi blushed, opening his mouth to speak before Namjoon spoke up once more. "You never tell me anything about anyone, and then all of a sudden, some 'Jimin' gets mentioned... twice. It's almost as if-"

"Hey, we're not talking about Jimin, we're talking about Seokjin, okay?" Yoongi barked, his eyes shifting nervously and fingers strumming against the coffee cup nervously. Namjoon hummed with a slight smirk, not used to seeing Yoongi act like how he is. "Look, I'm trying to comfort you!" He bit out, observing how Namjoon's mouth was turned upward smugly, only to turn into a sigh at Yoongi's words.

"I don't think I'll be able to get over him that easily." He winced, taking a sip of his sharp lukewarm coffee. "He... He's amazing; he's funny, he's caring. Literally, Jin is just the cutest little shit, and on top of that - he's gorgeous. He's so good that no-one would think about ever turning him down..." Namjoon boasted. "...so..." He sighed, taking another sip of his drink before slamming the cup back into the table. "...now he's taken."
