"He's your brother?!" The three guys in front of Taehyung exclaimed in unison. He nodded. "Yeah. Please don't ever do that again, it's creepy. But it's him. I'm sure of it."
They were back in Taehyung's apartment sitting around on the couches. The idol had a few more days to pack and rest before tour but he knew he'd be busier than a bee.
"How do you know?" asked Namjoon.
"I have the same nightmare almost every night. I remember his face so well. Sure, he's gotten older and he's changed a little but he's still the same. He even still has that crooked little tooth; I guess he never got it fixed. Park Jimin...where have you been all this time..." he wondered aloud.
"Didn't you say his older brother asked for your number?" Hoseok spoke up.
"I don't think that's his real older brother unless our mom remarried but yeah, I gave it to him. I hope he uses it."
"What about that other kid he was with? Jangchuk?" Yoongi questioned.
"Jungkook. I think he's Jimin's other friend. He was cute but way too excitable. I felt bad not being able to take pictures with him after Jimin ran off," Taehyung said, picking at a loose string on his sweater. "He seemed like a genuine fan."
"I hope something happens soon, Taehyung~ah. You leave for the rest of the tour soon. Really, really soon." Namjoon everyone, the realist.
Tae lowered his eyes. "I know." His phone went off on the coffee table in front of the couch. He recognized it as a text notification but he ignored it and continued fiddling with the string.
"I think you should get that. What if it's him?" Hoseok said.
Taehyung sighed and grabbed the phone, looking at it.
******1234: Hi! Um, is this V? I'm Jin, Jimin's best friend.

V: I never meant for things to happen like this. Jimin and I were separated 12 years ago. Our dad cheated on our mom and she filed for divorce. A month later, she took Jimin and moved out. I remember him. I've had the same dream of him leaving for those 12 years. I know it's him.

Jin: ...I'll give him your number. It's up to him whether he wishes to continue this or not. You're a complete stranger to me but I feel compelled to believe you. But I'm warning you: don't you dare hurt him. You won't like the consequences.

Taehyung looked up from his phone and wondered where the guys all went. He sighed and put his phone down on his lap before feeling a breath on his neck. He swirled around in his chair and found all three of them looking over his shoulder.
"So I guess you read it then," he said to no one in particular.
"Yeah. I can't believe I might get my childhood best friend back!" squealed Hoseok.
"Yah! He's my best friend first. I'm his brother," Tae said snobbishly.
"Can you two please shut up. I'm trying to sleep." All eyes were on Yoongi, who was spread out like a starfish on the couch in Taehyung's living room.
"How'd he get over there so fast..." Namjoon said under his breath.
"I heard that!" Yoongi snapped.
"Go to sleep!" Namjoon snapped back. "Actually nevermind! Get up! You need to get home anyways. Your family still exists, you know."
Yoongi sighed. "You're right." He stood up and went over to Namjoon by the door. "Bye Tae, later Hobi. Make sure you get some rest. Don't forget to tell me when you leave for the rest of your tour, shithead."
Tae laughed. "I won't. Night guys."
"Bye bye!" Hoseok yelled right before the door closed.
"You did good today," Taehyung's best friend comforted. "I hope everything goes well. I really want to see Jiminie again. I can't believe it's been 12 years since I've seen him last. I bet he's REALLY cute!"
"Stop babbling...but he was cute though, I won't lie. But he's my brother so I can't really say that. You didn't hear anything. Oh! His friends were super adorable. Jin's kinda like a mom, almost. Jungkook was sexy though...even while fanboying over me." Taehyung smirked.
Hoseok moved into the bathroom from where he was. "Arasseo, superstar. It's getting late so we should hit the hay. Goodnight."
Taehyung nodded. "Night, Hobi."
