"Well I know that there's a limit to everything"

The last person to arrive was Jimin. He said that he was bringing a friend with him. What friend? No one knew until they got there. Twenty minutes after everyone else had made it, Jimin came with his friend. Everyone was surprised when they saw who it was.

"This is my new friend Seokjin. I brought him along so that we could third wheel together" Jimin said, introducing his new friend to everyone. Seokjin bowed. "Hello everyone. I'm Kim Seokjin. Please treat me well" He greeted. Namjoon and Hoseok were shocked. "Oh, Jin. I didn't know that you were friends with Jimin" Namjoon said, giving him a friendly hug.

Seokjin hugged him back tightly due to how much of a hugger he was. "Namjoon! How have you been? You never called me back" Seokjin said as he pulled away. Namjoon awkwardly scratched his head. "Sorry about that. I've been taking care of my friend and he needed my full attention so yeah. I don't really have time for much since he..." he leaned into Seokjin's ear. "Is a bit needy."

Yoongi didn't hear him but he knew exactly what Namjoon said. He clung onto Hoseok and pulled him outside. "I don't think I want to go. I'm only going to be a burden to Namjoon. I told him about my feelings but I'm pretty sure that the only reason he still puts up with me is because he knows how bad I get at times." Hoseok put a hand on Yoongi's shoulder.

"I want you to come with us. I won't let Namjoon ruin your fun. You can just stay with Taehyung and I, okay?"

Yoongi quickly shook his head. "No way. I know that you and Taehyung will want to be alone. It will be better if I just go home.  I promise that I won't do anything stupid. I'll just-"

"No. You're coming with us. End of story. Now let's get ready to go" Hoseok said, pulling Yoongi towards the car. The elder sighed. "I don't have a say in this, do I?" "Nope." Hoseok unlocked the car and opened the door for Yoongi. "I wish that I could sit next to you but Taehyung is always getting jealous" he explained. Yoongi chuckled. "No worries. I'm just thankful to have a friend like you."

Hoseok couldn't suppress his smile. "Aw hyung, you're making me soft. I'm happy to have a friend like you too. You're an amazing person." Yoongi showed him his gummy smile and poked his cheek. In that moment, everyone else came running out of the house.

"Hoseokie, you left me to get all of your stuff and mine" Taehyung complained. Hoseok looked at Taehyung and saw that he was holding a lot of stuff. "Oh dear." He quickly rushed over to him and helped him put everything in the trunk. The others put their things in the trunk as well. Once all of their belongings were inside of the car, they got in their seats.

Taehyung was in the drivers seat and Hoseok was in the passenger seat. In the second row, Yoongi sat by the window near Hoseok, Miran sat in the middle, and Jungkook sat at the end near Taehyung. In the third row, Namjoon sat behind Yoongi, Seokjin sat behind Miran, and Jimin sat behind Jungkook.

Taehyung invited Jo to come but she declined. She didn't give an explanation as to why but he didn't want to further question her. He was a bit concerned though. She seemed very passionate about getting him and Hoseok together but was that really what she wanted? He just hoped that she wouldn't later regret her decision.

"Drive already!" Hoseok ordered. Taehyung snapped out of his thoughts and stepped on the gas.
