''I'm worried.''

The short sentence made Jin look up from his phone and focus his attention on the long haired boy with washed out red bangs, that were so long they covered up his eyes. Taehyung was biting on his nail as he stared out the window of the small coffee shop the pair was currently sitting in. He didn't continue his thought making Jin speak up.

''Worried about what?'' He asked the anxious boy who bit into his nail again while shaking his leg.

''Hobi.'' Taehyung answered quietly.

''Everything okay with him?'' A small sigh escaped Taehyung's lips as he finally looked the older in the eye.

''I don't know... He's been... Off lately.''

''What do you mean 'off'?''

''I don't know how to explain it, something just doesn't feel right.'' Two weeks have passed since Jin's party and ever since Hoseok hasn't been himself. Taehyung didn't know if it was just the blonde hair or something else but Hoseok wasn't acting like himself.

''Care to explain a bit more?''

''I don't know... He's been distant lately.''

''I doubt that's something to worry about, couples get like that after a while. It just means the honey moon has passed and now you're more mature. Not as touchy and lovey dovey and all that. But it shouldn't be something to worry about, he still loves you.''

''I didn't mean distant as in he doesn't show affection, I meant as in he's hiding something from me, not telling me what's on his mind.''

''Hiding something? Like what?'' Jin asked with an arched eyebrow and a confused look in his eyes.

''You don't wanna hear my theories...''

''If it's something along the lines of Hobi being unfaithful I'm gonna go and stop you right there. You know Hoseok wouldn't do something like that, he's head over heels for you.''

''Then why is there this guilty look in his eyes every time he's with me. Even if he smiles or laughs or just looks at me, it's always there.''

''Have you tried asking him what's up?'' Jin suggested making the younger bite his lower lip.

''Things don't go well when I try addressing subjects Hobi doesn't want to talk about.''

''What do you mean?''

''Well last time I tried addressing something that was bothering me, I ended up kicking him out because I was mad at his answer, now I'm kind of scared that if I bring up something like this and it ends up being something bad, I'll ruin our relationship because of my anger.''

''I don't think Hoseok would be too hurt to forgive you.''

''Then why has he been like this ever since our last fight...''

''Like what?''

''Weird...'' Taehyung replied with a small pout on his lips. ''At first I just thought he was being cautious with me because he was scared of making me mad again, but then he grew distant, started keeping even more things from me. It was the worst during hell month, I barely saw him at all unless he came to my house at night to fuck. And now... Something is just completely off about him.''

''Well scared or not you guys definitely have to have a talk. You can't expect your relationship to work if you guys don't communicate.''

''I know...'' Another sigh escaped the younger's lips.
