Ice Cream (hiatus)

7. Blue Lemonade

As it got darker, Hoseok finally ended dance practice, but was a bit worried because Yoongi hadn't gotten back. Even Namjoon had no idea where he was.

Immediately after practice Hoseok grabbed his phone to try to call him for the fifth time, but even more quickly he noticed a text. "Hey! I got a text from Yoongi! He says he's not feeling well and apologizes. He went to the hotel early." Hoseok exclaimed.

"Oh? Really?" Namjoon said approaching him concerned. "Did he say what he's sick with?"

"No. I'll ask." Hoseok said as he typed up a reply.

Namjoon turned to the group, "They ordered food for us, so let's go, the room is just down the hall."

"Yes, leader!" Jimin exclaimed as he grabbed his phone as well. He opened up Yoongi's chat too as they all got ready to go.

They all ran behind Namjoon, and Hoseok was still texting as he followed.

Once they got into the room they greeted everyone with tired cheers, glad that the day was finally accomplished.

Luckily dinner went normally, and no one had asked too many questions. Thankfully so, because Hoseok was already nervous about later. For the most part it seemed that Jimin wasn't nervous at all, or maybe it was because he was trying to keep himself busy by practicing the dances. Jungkook was busy playing some musical game on his phone after he had finished eating his share of noodles.

Sighing, he turned to his food. Was he really the only one visibly nervous? He just couldn't stop thinking about it. He ate his food slower than normal, distracted by thinking of what to do. Then it hit him—he could just look it up. But what if it gets leaked that he searched it up? God, was he overthinking or? He bit his lip as he felt his shoulders sting for a second out of nowhere. It turned out to be Namjoon's hand that provoked it.

Hoseok tried to prevent himself from hissing at the sudden pain.

"Are you okay?" Namjoon asked.

Hoseok smiled, "Oh, yeah! Just scared me a bit!"

Hoseok took another sip of his soup, and noticed Namjoon had a serious look on face. "So, what happened back there? You guys seem okay now, so I'm guessing everything's alright?"

"Yeah we are fine now. I just need to be careful next time."

"You really weren't feeling well, huh?" Namjoon asked. Hoseok felt him wanting to say something.

"No, but I'm better now I think." Hoseok said finishing up his food. Then a ping went off from his phone. He pulled it from his pocket, and it was a text from Taehyung. "Ah it's Taehyung."

"Oh?"

Hoseok read the text. 'Are you done eating yet, hyung?'

He immediately texted back, 'Almost, why, what's up?'

Namjoon watched as Hoseok threw out the plates and tucked in the chair under the table, "I'm gunna go see what Taehyung needs."

"Okay, just a head's up: our ride is almost here, so we are going to leave soon."

"Okay!" Hoseok nodded and smiled. Time was flying by way too quickly.

As he walked out of the room he took his phone out to call Taehyung. In the meantime he browsed the rooms to see where he was. "Taehyung~" Hoseok called out. No answer or any sign of him. He returned to the previous room where he ate, and Namjoon, Jimin and Jungkook were still in their same spots. "Any of you see where Taehyung went?"

They all simultaneously nodded. Jimin, though, stopped what he was doing and walked towards him, "I'll help you find him!"

Hoseok nodded 'okay' and immediately they headed off.
