(Play the song at Yoongi's pov)

Namjoon pov

"I'm sorry I crashed your date."

"It's okay...it wasn't much of a date anyways..." Yoongi says as he takes a sip from his glass of Malibu Orange. I called him an hour ago to get advice about Jin, but didn't realize he was on a date. Well, an outing as it seems since Jimin and him went to a Bar in Seoul named Thursday Party.

"Yeah, I can tell." Looking at Jimin dancing with a group of military guys that came to blow off steam. "This doesn't seem like a place you would take Jimin."

"I didn't pick this place. He did." Yoongi has a tense look in his eyes as he watches Jimin before he focuses back on me. "So what can I help you with?"

"Well, I was trying to figure things out on my own but it's just not possible. Jin kind of confessed all his feelings to me on Wednesday. He said he thinks he loves me."

"Oh that's big." I exhale while putting my elbow on the round table and shifting on my stool. "What did you say?"

"What could I say? I panicked and left faster than Jin could stuff the words back into his mouth." Yoongi shakes his head and laughs under his breath.

"Damn."

"What do I do?" I down my toxic shot of fireball before washing it down with a sweet shot of baley's. "I can't keep ignoring him."

"Yeah, you can't. First, I'm going to ask one important question. Do you love him back?" I want to blame the shots for making my stomach swirl around like mini typhoons are nesting inside, but that's not the case at all. My body is hot and sticky from the open entrance letting the heat in. My tongue is dry and stiff. The thought of love paralyzing me.

"Come on Namjoon. He's more than a one night stand. The way you chase him around even though he's a walking ball of chaos and confusion."

"Wait. How do you know..."

"You two aren't discrete when you run around campus or cause a scene. Plus, it's all over his face." Yoongi points out, making me avert my eyes and nervously pick at my eyebrow. He's always been the perceptive one, figuring things out one by one.

"I know he means more to me than a one night stand. It's just relationsh-"

"Look, you need to move passed your ex. He will just hold you back. It's time to open up again." He gives me a toothless smile and I shake my head.

"A relationship was not my end goal with Jin. I just wanted to figure him out and sleep with him, but now-" I let out a frustrated sigh. "I still haven't figured him out and I don't want to leave his side. But, the more I think about it, the more my feelings just get so- I can't explain it. It's like something is pressing on my heart and I can't tell if it's a good thing or time to call 911."

"Namjoon, do me a favor and talk to Jin again. I think you'll know what you want when you see him. Don't let the past define your future." Yoongi advises before his eyes flicker to Jimin again. I angle my body more to get a better look and almost choke on my spit. Jimin is exchanging numbers with a muscular military guy that kisses him on the cheek before walking away.

"Yoo-"

He's already up and walking towards Jimin and I take that as my cue to leave before the fire starts. I have some soul searching to do...

Yoongi pov

My entire body is practically shaking as I grab Jimin out of the crowd and drag him to the men's restroom. The party music is dulled when the door closes and I'm grateful the restroom is empty. I'm more than fuming as Jimin stares at me with large scared eyes. "Is this why you brought me here? To flirt with other guys and get their numbers right in front of me? Do you think I'm stupid? What's your deal?"

"What's my deal?" Jimin repeats and I fold my arms. "Just dump me already. I know you want too."

"Where the hell did you get that idea from?" Jimin's face turns cherry red as it crumbles.

"You basically said it in the car that night." He chokes out. "And if not then...when you didn't text me for almost a week after. I waited and felt it. You don't want to be with me."

"If I didn't want to be with you, I wouldn't be angry right now. I told you I would contact you when I was ready. I just needed space." Jimin clutches his chest as he steps closer.

"Do you know what it feels like to be told you're annoying and then left in the dark by your boyfriend for a whole week? Yoongi, you don't have to say it. I know you're done with me. Getting jealous isn't the same as love." He gives a sad shrug of the shoulder. "I smothered you and I'm sorry but...I don't want to be in a relationship with you if I'm constantly worried about being too much. Besides, I didn't come here to talk about my feelings."

"Is that why you picked this place? So we wouldn't have to talk? So I couldn't catch on to your strange behavior?" Jimin wipes his eyes. "I've known you for over a year and you're crazy. Like actually crazy when it comes to the person you're dating." Jimin's head falls as he listens. "I've never had someone this crazy about me ever. Not in a relationship or my family. Yes, sometimes I felt overwhelmed by all of it, but..."

"But what?" He mumbles.

"I don't want you being that close to anyone else, but me. I want you Jimin. That's why I contacted you and that's why I agreed to go on this date." 

"Stop." He pleads, putting his guards up and locking me out. 

"No." I pull Jimin close by his arm until our faces are inches a part. "Delete his number because you're mine." The only sounds heard are our breathes mixing together. The smell of liquor on both our tongues. All I get is a small nod of the head from Jimin and I smirk at his surrender. 

"Now...let's try this again."
