The next morning as Yoongi jumped in the car, surprisingly, he was met with a bubbly, happy Hoseok playing with the younger members.
"Morning Yoongi!" The boy exclaimed beaming his heart shaped smile at the older while wrestling with Jimin. "Morning..." The older answered with a mixture of relief and confusion. He was...fine? Did last night even happen?!
Yoongi took a seat next to Jungkook, who was also trying to tackle Jimin and Hoseok. As Namjoon began explaining their schedule for the day, Yoongi couldn't help his thoughts from drifting to Hoseok. The boy looked like he was fine but Yoongi couldn't help but feel that he wasn't.
The day carried on like usual, they filmed some Run episodes, had an interview, went to a meeting to plan their next comeback. Nothing different other then the fact that Yoongi practically followed Hoseok around like a lost puppy the whole day. By the time dinner rolled around Hoseok seemed to have gotten the message.
Since nobody could agree on where to eat the seven boys ended up deciding on street food, just a block away from their dorm. Taehyung, Jimin, and Jungkook went racing for dakkochi, while Namjoon and Jin found a small Jajangmyeon place. Yoongi and Hoseok were leisurely walking in search of some odeng.
Yoongi found himself smiling under his face mask, he wasn't much of a social person, but the busy street and mess of lights didn't seem to bad when the actual sun was walking beside him. He was happy to see that Hoseok was back to his normal self again.
"Yoongi...I know Jajangmyeon is your favorite." Hoseok spoke in a quiet voice, breaking the older from his thoughts as he turned to face the younger, then moved his eyes to the ground. "Oh..." the older spoke as he realized he'd been caught.
Of course, the boy had seen right through the older rapper. They stopped in front of a small jajangmyeon vender, "Two bowls please." Hoseok spoke getting out his wallet to pay. Yoongi grabbed his arm, "Wait Hoseok, at least let me pay I'm your hyung." But the younger just smiled as he handed the money to the man, "I'll pay. I have to repay you for taking care of me last night." Yoongi let out a sigh as he let the younger pay, with a warmth he couldn't explain filling his chest.
The two of them found a secluded place away from wondering eyes, under a tree behind the street full of people, food and lights. They ate in silence, a comfortable silence that they often found in each others presence.
But Yoongi couldn't help the question eating at his mind, in a casual voice he asked, "Seok, why were you crying last night?"
The younger tensed, "I just fell and didn't know I was crying..." he trailed off "But really though, you don't have to worry. I'm good." Then in a silent voice he whispered to himself, "It has to be."
Before Yoongi could say anything Hoseok changed the subject, "Anyway Yoongi, have the others heard your song yet? I know I've said this already but it's incredible...you really are amazing with that stuff hyung." Averting his gaze from the youngers the black haired boy scratched the back of his head, unable to hide the smile that threatened his lips, "Aish seok it's not that good, the others haven't heard it yet. It's just...really personal you know?" The other nodded in agreement, "When you're ready, I'm sure they'd love to hear it." He spoke as his Hoseok smile beamed at Yoongi.
The older felt his face grow red as he looked into the youngers brown eyes, he'd never noticed just how deep and unexplored they were. After a moment the older, feeling the heat rush to his cheeks, broke the contact between them. "Seok I should have said this sooner but," he took a deep breath, ignoring his pink cheeks and facing the younger, "Thank you. I can't believe you kept looking after me the past couple weeks even though I was an utter mess. Those frustrating nights didn't seem all to bad when you were there."
The younger smiled sweetly, "Anytime hyung, I mean you work so hard it's the least I can do. I'm just glad to see that your able to sleep now." Looking down he continued, "and I like that."
"Like what?" The black haired boy asked.
"Seok, It's cute." The boy replied shyly. If Yoongi's cheeks were hot before they were burning now, he hadn't even noticed that he'd picked up the pet name and started calling the younger that.
"Yoongi! Hoseok! We're heading back now!" Taehyung yelled standing on the street with the rest of the group. The two boys quickly got up putting on their face masks and joining the others. As soon as they started their short walk to the dorm, Jimin had thrown himself on Yoongi, complaining about how Jungkook won't notice him. Jin, Namjoon and Junkook were playing word games with each other, and Taehyung was telling Hoseok about his ideas for the next cypher.
Everything seemed to be back to normal again, Yoongi still didn't know what exactly was wrong with Hoseok, but it seemed like the younger wasn't going to open up anytime soon. He could be patient, Yoongi decided. The black haired boy couldn't stop the smile that pulled at his lips when he thought back to the conversation Hoseok and he had.
"Yah! Hyung are you even listening to me? Why are you smiling so much?" Jimin asked as they walked into the dorm. Yoongi was caught off guard, "Huh? O-oh yeah..." he trailed off rubbing the back of his neck, looking around the room for the cause of his happy state. "Wait where'd Hoseok go? Wasn't he just with us?"
"He's probably at the studio. Tae! Did hyung go to dance again?" Jimin asked casually, earning a "Yep!" From the boy before being dragged away by both Taehyung and Jungkook to play Overwatch probably.
Yoongi let out a heavy sigh, he knew he shouldn't do this he knew he should give the boy his space but no matter how hard he tried his thoughts went to the previous night's events. He couldn't let that happen again.
"Jin Hyung! I'm going to buy some snacks I'll be back."
"Oh good buy some tofu while you're out then!" Jin yelled back causing Yoongi to sigh, now he had to actually go to the store.
Shaking off the thought, he left the dorm and practically sprinted towards the dance studio, which thankfully was just down the street.
When Yoongi arrived he was met with a vacant, pitch black studio.
Worried, the boy was about to call the youngers phone when a voice called from behind him,
"Yoongi?"
