"So," Taehyung starts as he slowly prances around the pool, "what's going on with you and Hoseok?"
Yoongi sinks lower into the water to hide his heating cheeks. He watches as Taehyung swims closer, "Come on, don't be shy," Taehyung smirks.
"I'm not shy," Yoongi says after popping his head neck up, "i just don't wanna talk about him."
"You like him?" Taehyung questions, even though he already knew the answer.
Yoongi sighs and looks away. Taehyung notices and swims over until he right next to him. He touches his shoulder, "Yoongi? It's obvious. Just talk to me."
Yoongi looks over and takes Taehyung's hands, holding them as he speaks, "Okay, but you can't tell anyone!"
Taehyung nods enthusiastically.
"I may like the guy," Yoongi says, making Taehyung smile, "and I think he likes me."
"He does," Taehyung says not missing a beat, "it's so obvious. I mean, he kissed you!"
Yoongi shyly looks away and smiles a little. Taehyung giggles and brings Yoongi closer until he's halfway hugging his neck, "This is so cute! I've never seen you like someone before!"
Yoongi rolls his eyes, "I liked you."
"But it wasn't real," Taehyung waves it off, "besides, I have a feeling you don't like guys like me," Taehyung says, hinting at the idea of top and bottom.
Yoongi widens his eyes and he quickly gets out of Taehyung's hold, "No! Don't say it!" Yoongi yells, "That's what I'm scared of!"
Taehyung furrows his eyebrows, "Why?"
Yoongi sighs and puts his face in his hands before removing them, "Kid, I've never been a bottom. Im scared to be one. I can't be one! Not after what happened."
Taehyung's eyes sadden. He knows how it feels to be scared of sex. He knows that feeling of not wanting to ever feel that burning pain ever again. He understood where Yoongi was coming from. He swims over to Yoongi, "It's okay," he comforts him, rubbing the back of Yoongi's neck like Jungkook did to him since it calms him down, "You don't have to do anything you don't want to. Hoseok will understand."
"I'm not going to tell him," Yoongi looks up, "I won't."
"Why not? If...if you guys get together I feel like he needs to know so he won't do anything that triggers you," Taehyung says, massaging the area.
Yoongi looks in Taehyung's eyes, "The only way I will be triggered is being a bottom."
Taehyung frowns as Yoongi sadly sighs, "It's sucks, you know? I know Hoseok would never bottom for me. I know this is fucking stupid to think about since we aren't together, but that's what's holding me back," he says, looking down at the water.
