Seokjin yawned flopped down onto his bed. Taehyung wasn't home yet, and it was getting pretty late. Anxiously, he stared at the clock on his wall beside the Mario toys he'd bought. He stared at the green Level Up Mushroom that he had bought a couple of years ago: one for him and one for Taehyung. The day that Seokjin gave that to Taehyung was the first gift he'd ever bought him. Although he wasn't sure if Taehyung would even like it, Taehyung's face definitely said otherwise to all of his doubts; his grin spreading so widely, teeth showing. He plunged forward almost knocking Seokjin out, plunging him into a tight hug. Seokjin blushed, hesitantly hugging back.

His eyes winced at the digital clock.

23:02.

Maybe he should ring him.

Seokjin reached into his pocket, surprised to see that his phone had been switched off. He quickly clicked the button on, the screen lighting up. He quickly went to swipe across and unlock, until he started to feel the phone vibrate like crazy in his hand. He startled, nearly dropping the phone in shock at the text messages all piling in at speed. He unlocked the phone, checking the texts.

Yoongi 😎🔥, Sent at 13:40: HAVENT U CONFESSED YET? TAHTS WHY U DID THE WHOLE CHEEK-LICK-CAKE THING AT LUNCH, RIGHT? WTFFFFFF
Yoongi 😎🔥, Sent at 13:41: he said yes. WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON.

Seokjin shot up from his bed and stood up straight, pacing his room quickly, staring at his phone wide eyed.

Taehyung hadn't even told him that he was going over Hoseok's place. Anything could have happened to him, and Taehyung knows how worried Seokjin can get. But does that mean Taehyung has to tell him everything he does? It's not like he owns Taehyung. But he can't stand the thought of Hoseok all over Taehyung. He doesn't deserve Taehyung.

Seokjin called Taehyung, tapping at his arm anxiously. The phone cut dead, sending him straight to voicemail. Seokjin groaned in frustration.

You, Sent at 23:11: YOONGI. HIS PHONE IS OFF AND I CANT GET THROUGH TO HIM. WHAT THE FUCK DO I DO? WHAT IF HOSEOKS BEATING HIM UP OR MAKING OUT WITH HIM OR SOMETHING?!!!

Yoongi 😎🔥, Sent at 23:13: I wouldn't worry about the beating up thing. I've been watching him closely the past few months. If anything he'd been avoiding any kind of touching, until today of course

The words stung through reading them.

Yoongi 😎🔥, Sent at 23:13: But still, it wasn't in an aggressive way.

Yoongi 😎🔥, Sent at 23:15: Take my advice: heres Namjoon's number, he's been through this shit before. - 09784 774066.

Seokjin didn't even think before calling the number. Each passing second, Seokjin grew more and more anxious, therefore he was thankful that Namjoon picked up pretty quick.

"Hello?" Came a voice from the other end of the phone.

"E-erm, hi, it's Seokjin. You know, Yoongi's friend." Seokjin tampered, hoping that Namjoon hadn't forgotten who he was. They'd met a few times before, even gone out together to that incredibly expensive restaurant with Yoongi and a couple of their friends, but he's trying to stay careful.

"Oh, um, hi." The voice down the phone coughed, their voice suddenly quite shaky been retaining its level tone. "Are you okay?"

"Yeah, well, umm... Not really." Seokjin sighed down the phone. "Yoongi gave me your number and told me that you know about this stuff, so I'm just, yeah." Seokjin babbled, rubbing at his forehead in embarrassment.

"That's fine, what's the problem?"

"Well, you remember a couple weeks back, we were in that café, and I needed help because I had a crush... Issue?" Namjoon hummed in reply. "Well, he... The guy I like..."

Seokjin paused mid-sentence, startling as his phone then vibrated; another text from Yoongi.

"Hold on, Yoongi's just texted me."

"Okay."

Yoongi 😎🔥, Sent at 23:19: one of my texts didn't send.
Yoongi 😎🔥, Sent at 23:21: At the time I didn't really acknowledge what I was saying. I'm sorry.

Seokjin gulped.

Yoongi 😎🔥, Sent at 23:21: SERIOUSLY JIN. HAVE U ACTUALLY CONFESSED?? TAEHYUNGS BEEN ACTING ALL GIGGLY AND SHY WITH HOSEOK --- O M G

Seokjin's breath hitched, trying to swallow a lump in his throat that had suddenly risen. He let out a small high pitched bellow beneath his breath reading over the words over and over.

'Taehyung's been acting all giggly and shy with Hoseok.'

That can't mean... No, it can't...

"Umm, Seokjin?" Namjoon's voice sounded over the phone. "Are... Are you alright?" He crooned, sounding pained just listening to Seokjin who sounded as if he were at the brink of tears.

"He's getting hit on by another guy and..." Seokjin said, pausing as his voice broke. "I don't know what to do."

"Bastard." Namjoon bit out. Seokjin spluttered, eyes widening. "Erm, I mean. Wow, that's pretty shallow."

"What?"

"You confessed and then he's just out there flirting with other guys..." Namjoon paused "Wait, you have confessed, right?"

"...no." Seokjin muttered, quietly.

"Jin," Namjoon sighed. "How's he meant to know if you don't tell him?" Seokjin bit at his cheek, listening to Namjoon. "You've got to confess Seokjin. You don't want to lose them because you're too much of a coward to tell them how you really feel, not like I did."

Seokjin took a deep breath.

"Thank you so much, Namjoon. Seriously." Seokjin smiled, although he didn't knew that Namjoon couldn't see it.

"It's fine. Good luck." Namjoon finished, hanging up.

Seokjin took a deep breath, going back to text Yoongi, only to hear that he was mid-concert, and left Seokjin to have to count the seconds go by.
