Taehyung slammed the van door shut, biting his tongue so he wouldn't lash out. Yoongi had pissed him off. Badly.

"We can get some good photographs, and we can take group photos too!" Seokjin clicked the button on his key pad to lock the van. "And no one else is here to bother us!" He added, starting to walk across the sand into the dunes.

"Can the rest of us split off, hyung?!" Taehyung called out, raising his head up a bit while doing so.

"OK!" Seokjin yelled back a reply, taking his camera out and beginning to snap some photos of the breath taking dunes.

"Good." Taehyung grabbed Jungkook's hand, plus Jennie's since she came too along with her friend Rosé. "Hoseok come with us too." Taehyung said, motioning the older boy with his head and seeing Hoseok nod.

"Where are we going?" Hoseok walked along beside Jennie, glancing to Taehyung.

"Away from Yoongi."

"Come on, Taehyung...let's talk this out..?" Jennie asked, her smile fading while talking. Her concern was raised, she wanted to have fun but..everyone else seemed to be upset. More specifically, Taehyung.

"Gladly." Taehyung retorted, going off to a quiet part of the dunes with Jennie, Jungkook, and Hoseok and then sitting down on the sand. The three others sat in a circle around Taehyung.

"What's wrong...?" Jennie asked, directing it towards Taehyung.

"A lot. I just- a fucking suicide joke? Are you kidding me now? What Hoseok and I joked about wasn't even as bad. Yoongi took it too far. Plus, have you seen the way he's been acting towards Jungkook? I don't know what his problem is but I'm so done with it. Everything was fine until he just /had/ to show up." Taehyung ranted.

"I mean, he's right... I've been wondering ever since why he's been treating Jungkook like shit. You swear you haven't done anything to Yoongi, right Jungkook?" Hoseok gently nudged Jungkook's knee.

"I swear, hyung..." Jungkook mumbled, his head tilted down.

"See. He hasn't done a thing so I want to know why Yoongi despises his guts. Really though, if he does something to Jungkook again I'll fucking kill him." Taehyung was the over-protective type. Somehow he was even more protective over Jungkook. Probably because he was the youngest, and Taehyung was the closest to Jungkook.

"No- no. Don't do that. It won't solve anything." Jennie quickly silenced Taehyung. "Maybe....," She thought for a moment. "Maybe ask him why he's like that?"

"Ha! Like that's going to do any good. Remember Seokjin-hyung talked to Yoongi. He said Yoongi's response was the same every time." Taehyung rubbed his temples, sighing in frustration.

"Maybe it would be different if it was someone else asking why.. instead of Seokjin-oppa, you know?" Jennie shrugged. She didn't really know any answers for this.

"Does Yoongi seem like the type to open up easily though?" Hoseok glanced at Yoongi from far away, seeing him talking with Jimin and Rosé.

"No.." Jungkook finally said something else, making his friends immediately look to him. "Kookie, tell us something if you need to okay..?" Taehyung scooted closer to his friend, seeing the warm breeze that suddenly conjured up ruffle Jungkook's hair softly.

Jungkook hardly nodded.

"You can, Jungkookie-oppa. We're all here to listen.." Jennie covered her mouth quickly. "Sorry, I know you hate being called oppa." She apologized.

"It's okay...." He replied meekly, nervously playing with his hands.

"Do you have something to say though..?" Hoseok looked at Jungkook, and then to Jennie and Taehyung.
