Taehyung and Namjoon came back to their room from their long day study session with the most annoying student council; loud sighing, dropping their bag on the floor and watching Jimin preparing three cups of extra large ramen that's being placed on the low table.

"I see Jimin in a good mood today?" Namjoon snorted, forcing himself to drags his legs to move.
"No shit hyung, what a good dick Yoongi have right there," Taehyung added, slumping next to Jimin and throwing his arms around his hyung.

"No, stop touching me," Jimin whines, pushing away Taehyung. Taehyung has this offended looks on his face before he pouts and took one of the ramen cup.

"Joon hyung, we can't even touch Jimin anymore!"

"No, it's because you smells like sweat! I just finished taking bath, I don't want your bacteria on me." Jimin also took one cup of ramen as Namjoon joined them sitting around the low table. The older looks like he has been hit with a slipper severa times, Jimin started laughing when Taehyung pointed it out.

"The student council told us that last year he had a student named Kim Seokjin and how he used to have a little crush on the Kim Seokjin. Namjoon couldn't stop coughing because apparently the Kim Seokjin is a flirty person– except toward Namjoon himself!" Taehyung opened up, ignoring Namjoon who has started wheezing and flailing his arms around for the younger to stop talking.

"I don't even care Tae, I don't like him!" Namjoon protested, whining when Jimin get in-between him and Taehyung.

"But your face shows the disappointment you're feeling inside. Ah hyung, stop telling us that cheap lie again and again~" Jimin chuckles when Namjoon shove an unhealthy amount of ramen into his mouth.

"So, what about you?" Taehyung turned to Jimin, his smile now sly and provoking. Jimin might want to throw one or two punches at the younger.
"Me? What's wrong with me?" Jimin asked, playing dumb.

"Ah come on, after you sit on Yoongi's dick at the cafeteria, what happened next? I want to know~" Taehyung wriggles his eyebrows while his fingers dancing annoyingly in front of Jimin's face.

"Nothing, we just chill at his room after that," Jimin said, half lying.

"Oof, netflix and chill." Namjoon added when Taehyung pulls a thumb up at Jimin.

"We didn't fuck oh-my-God, I'm still a virgin!" Jimin put down his ramen cup, turning his head to Taehyung before looking back at Namjoon who's now snickering.

"Fine, he said he want me to be his and his only. Said nobody can touch me and he promise to take me on movie date next sunday."

Taehyung is inches away from flipping the table before he shakes Jimin's body vigorously with the help of Namjoon who's eyes now widen.

"You guys become a real couple?!" Taehyung shouted, excited.

"N- No?" Jimin's brows furrowed, his lips parted in confusion as his two best friends lost all the happiness they just had a moment ago. Namjoon threw his whole body to the back, drowning himself with his sling bag and tons of books meanwhile Taehyung abruptly stop eating. His face sour.

"So why did he say that? What are you two doing you mega idiot?" Taehyung smacked his temple, glaring at Jimin through his lashes.

Jimin blinks once, " We're still in our game. What's wrong?" he asked, even more confused.

"What the fuck?" Namjoon asked, staring on the ceiling with his two hands up in the air. Taehyung nodded at that.

"Listen you idiot, you fool, you scumbag– if any of you two didn't end the game already, I will." Taehyung leaned closer, pointing on Jimin's button nose.
"Why would we want to end the game? No!" Jimin pushes the younger, his breathe now hitching as Taehyung slammed the table with his palm.

"Have you ever like someone before Jimin?" Taehyung asked, stern and Jimin quickly nodded.
"That was long ago, right? Back in our high school day?" Jimin nodded again.

"If the game didn't end now, one of you gonna catch feeling and fall in love while the other mindset are strictly doing it solely because of the game. I don't know how mutually beneficial you two are doing, I don't like it Jimin. I hate this."

"Taehyung, you know when I said it's a game, it's gonna be a game. I'm maybe an idiot but I don't fall in love that fast."

"Yoongi, this is no longer a game."

Yoongi's head remain lowered, staring on his new bedsheet as Seokjin and Hoseok sit still in front of him.

"Yoongi, tell me the truth."

"It's a game."

"Tell me the fucking truth!" Seokjin yelled causing both Hoseok and Yoongi jumped in shock. Yoongi's hands start to shakes while he tries to make eye contact with his hyung.

"I- I think I like him?" Yoongi shuts his eyes tight after saying that, but he heard nothing. A quite murmur and Hoseok's sigh. Yoongi want to run away.

"If you really like him, you would want to stop this game immediately and tell him the truth instead. Min Yoongi I thought you're a genius?" Seokjin's eyes widen, his neck and the tip of his ears are mad red.

"H-hyung, Seokjin hyung," Hoseok called, his voice strained as if afraid making a louder noise. Seokjin turn his head fast to look at Hoseok, a brow raised.

"C-can we let Yoongi fix his problems privately? L-like like, maybe he have his own solution?" Hoseok explained and quickly looked at Yoongi for approval.

"We- we only know each other for– for a week and so? That's too early to tell someone we liked them. R-right?"

Seokjin seems to be agree at Yoongi's statement, his face is now soften and no longer guarded up. His shoulders relaxed and a quite sigh left his mouth.

"Still, every actions has it own consequences Yoongi. I don't want to see you taking another year off from your study. I've seen you broken enough, I've seen you cried enough. I've seen blood of yours. I don't want that anymore." Seokjin's voice is soft, as if its carry feather.

Hoseok's hands trembles at the memory of seeing broken Yoongi, he lowered his head before taking Yoongi's shoulders and hugs him hard.

"Please this time, make sure you do it right hyung," Hoseok whispered.

"I- I want to do it right too."

The room is now suffocating as the three of them sits in awkward silence for some time, glancing to one another from time to time.

"Hyung is sorry if hyung is being overprotective toward you," Seokjin said, a hand on the back of his neck.

Yoongi smiles at that, nodding and smiling again, more comfortably now.

But he can't end the game between him and Jimin.

If the game end, Jimin will stop meeting him and he will go back to his boring, lonely life. He doesn't want that.

He want to open his heart again and Jimin seems like the perfect reason to do so.

Jimin, his sunshine. His little mess. His dose of happiness.
