"Yoongi?" Taehyung called, running throughout the broken down building. The wood floor creaked under his bare feet as he checked each room for the raven haired boy.

Where could he be?

He ran past the door to the backyard, but then stepped back when he saw Yoongi's slim figure sitting in the flowers.

"Yoongi-hyung." Taehyung exhaled, pushing past the broken door to reach him. "What are you doing here?"

Yoongi sighed as he reached out to pick a flower, but the fuschia color withered to a dirt brown as his finger neared.

Taehyung approached his hyung in the flowers, sitting down next to him.

"Hyung? Are you okay?"

"I was going to get a gift for someone," Yoongi referred to the withering flower as he tried to touch it again. "I can't touch it without it dying."

"It's alright," Taehyung placed a hand on Yoongi's shoulder. "See," he said as he scooped a flower out of the dirt and it withered. "Even though it's withered and could crumble any second, it's still beautiful."

"It's just like us, dead, but still full of life." Taehyung took Yoongi by the wrist and led him to the little zen fountain in the garden. He cupped his hands and dipped them into the pool at the bottom, then slowly poured the water from his hand over the flower.

"But if you give it a little boost," Taehyung said as he picked up the now vibrant in color flower. "It'll be alright."

"Can you do that again?" Yoongi said, gesturing to the garden. "I want to make a bouquet."

"Of course."

After Yoongi had collected about 20 flowers of different shapes, colors and sizes from daisies to roses, Taehyung poured the water over the bouquet. They bloomed and Yoongi had a little smile on his face from awe and excitement.

"T-Taehyung?" Yoongi felt his face burning from embarrassment already. "Can I tell you something?"

"Of course." He smiled his signature box smile.

Yoongi took a deep breath, and began.

"Roses are red, violets are blue, flowers are pretty, and these are for you." Yoongi shyly held out the bouquet to Tae, then as he took it, immediately covered his rosy cheeks with his hands.

Tae giggled as he took a little daisy out of the bouquet and tucked it behind Yoongi's ear, and Yoongi slowly removed his hands.

"I-I wanted to say something else too."

"Go ahead."

"I really like you, you've made me feel something in a long time. A longing for someone to love grew in me after Jimin, and I never thought I could find someone until I found you." Yoongi looked down, shuffling his feet a bit. "Please don't hate me."

"Yoongi-hyung, I'd never hate you." Tae said as he placed the bouquet down on a nearby surface. He stepped closer and continued, "I like you too. You're sweet, even though you don't look like it at first."

Tae stepped closer and closer, and took Yoongi's fidgety and shaky hands in his.

"T-Tae."

"Hm?"

"Will you be my boyfriend?"

"Gladly."

Tae cupped Yoongi's face, looking him in the eye.

"You don't have to act shy around me anymore." He eye smiled. "Just be yourself."

He closed the gap between them and pulled him into a kiss.
