chapter 2 | seokjin

"he's cute but a little too clueless." seokjin starts blowing air over his spicy tofu stew accompanied by delicious beef.
yoongi sighs slurping on a mouthful of his own and swallows before looking up at his hyung, "jin hyung, he seems pretty cool why aren't you taking it as a compliment that he comes here almost every day?"
"i am i am! it's just a little difficult when he's constantly staring and always stumbles over his words, i feel like he never listens to me and only wants me for my face."
sighing lightly, yoongi placed his chopsticks at the side of his bowl and laced his fingers together to support his head, "look, i know it's one thing to cockblock someone, but to cockblock yourself? damn seokjin, even i didn't think you were that sad."
seokjin just chokes before pointing a chopstick at yoongi, "hey! respect that your elder is getting fragile." this statement earns a snort from the other.
"but in all seriousness, there's bluntness and then there's- well namjoon, it's like he doesn't think at all around me, it's strange."
"blown away by good looks," yoongi begins, "it's common."
seokjin just sighs, he always spoke about his good looks, but maybe this was a sign for him to stop being so narcissistic all of the time.
"just take it as a compliment and stop joining him at the table if it annoys you so much hyung. there's that problem, gone." pointing out the obvious, the younger takes another mouthful of food.
seokjin just huffs, puffing out his cheeks as he leans on his hands, "it's not that easy yoongi, what if i actually want to get to know him, i ask him the simplest things- like what's your favourite colour? and he'll answer with- the colour of your lips. i laughed it off at first thinking he was being flirty but then it's gotten out of hand."
"just be glad you're getting some, i've been drier than the sahara desert for the past 6 months." yoongi jokes but once his eyes lay upon a stressed looking seokjin, his jokey mood faltered.
"stop being so serious." yoongi narrows his eyes at his hyung.
"i'm sorry, i want to get to know him for some odd reason, it's like i'm drawn to him."
The younger scoffs, "you're so hooked it's worrying."
seokjin doesn't reply.

namjoon

leaving his home, namjoon's feet instantly take him to the bus stop to the city. it was a saturday and thankfully, he didn't have work today therefore that meant some time for himself and for some fresh air.
boarding the train into the city, he held his ticket in his mouth, fiddling with his coat and scoured the bus for a seat, he ended up giving it up for an elderly lady though.
once the train screeched to a halt, he made his way to the exit and inhaled, filling his lungs with the fresh air and smells of street food all around.
his feet knew exactly where they were going as he had, had his fair share of trips to this place.
arriving at his destination, stepped through the door and strode up to the counter and placed a hand over his wallet to check it was still there.
"hello, how may i help you Sir?" the boy behind the counter wasn't recognisable, he was probably a new worker due to the fact that namjoon wasn't familiar with him.
the boy looked rather young, probably a college student, he wore a smile and tilted his head to the side once he realised that namjoon still hadn't answered.
"o-oh, uh is jin hyung here?"
the brunette just shook his head softly, "no, i took his shift today, do you still want a table perhaps?II can tell him you wanted to see him?"
"no, it's okay, have a good day." and with that namjoon left tossing a smile over his shoulder to the boy.
namjoon was disappointed, it was stupid to say but he was rather looking forward to seeing seokjin.
he was like a stress reliever after a rough couple of days, one of seokjin's smiles could relieve namjoon in seconds.
yet he still needed to get his head in order, these stupid blunt answers were not helping him befriend jin in any way, shape or form and it was very embarrassing for the younger of the two.
