Yoongi's POV

"Yoongi, when are you coming home?"

"I really have to finish this today, EXO has a pretty tight schedule and I'm doing like hundred projects at the same time", Y/N was silent for a moment. I was searching for the right words when I heard her sigh at the other side of the phone

"Okay... I know it'll be successful like everything you do. Looking forward to it"

"Thank you Y/N...", I love you

"In case I'm not awake when you return, dinner is in the fridge so heat it up, okay?"

"Thank you, you're truly an angel"

"Shut up"

"I really...", come on, say it

"Yeah?"

"I... I just, I'm grateful to have you"

"You don't have to say that every single day softie, ya know?"

"I'll hang up now"

"Bye cutie", how did she end up being the main tease in our relationship? Wasn't that my role? I want to hit my head against this desk so freaking hard. Why am I having a hard time telling Y/N that I love her? She's obviously expecting it at times, it's coming from both sides, so, what's the problem Min Yoongi? Why are you so incompetent at times? Well, I shouldn't make them wait any longer, I wouldn't be surprised if they got tired of waiting and left

...

Leaving after waiting for too long, huh...

"Sorry, I'm here now, it's fine if we continue?", I asked the cheerful group in the studio and took my seat. They confirmed in unison, checked their mics and lyrics before I started playing

Picking up my old guitar

The confession that I couldn't make

Sang the first one, I showed thumbs up and he smiled proudly before the tallest one continued

Pretending I made one song, I'm about to tell

Just listen, I'll sing for you

Y/N, it's not me singing but I know you'll understand

He turned off the mic due to the long break between his lines and everyone focused on the next member

I love you a lot but I don't say the words

It's awkward that pride doesn't allow me


Today I will take courage and tell you, but just

Listen to it carelessly, I'll sing for you

Everything is flawless for now. My heartbeats fastened in euphoria, knowing that it sounds so good and Y/N will hear it soon

It's a bit funny to me, although you're everything to me

Sometimes I am no better than a stranger

Of course I'm affected by my own genius lyrics, but hearing them pour their hearts into it and in one piece it made me realize how easily scared I actually get. We made a short break when my hands got too shaky to play. In the meantime I replayed what we have for now and edited it just a tiny bit for album version, it's gonna sound amazing live. I unlocked my phone to check the time and admire my background picture of Y/N kissing Holly... gosh, I miss them so much. 

We're finally done for today, tomorrow is also filled with work but I'm determined to finish everything as soon as possible and run home to see my girls. I thanked each member individually, complimented their dedication, beautiful voices and personalities, discussed future collaboration and with that I locked the studio and rushed through empty streets.
