I think the reason I have a hard time writing characters interacting is because I'm not the most social or affectionate or funny person (◎ー◎)

Indoor picnic!

"Peanut butter sandwiches? Really?"

Yoongi turned around from his place before the stove. He looked especially odd with BamBams pink 'kiss the cook' apron over his black pullover and jeans. In one hand he held a spatula for flipping the frying sandwiches. Honest, Taehyung had never heard of anyone frying peanut butter sandwiches before, but who was he to argue. He couldn't cook to save his life.

"Why are you frying them?" He asked.

Yoongi pursed his lips "you fry the side a little bit with the peanut butter so its warm against the jelly. Its good trust me, Jihoon loves them"

Jihoon. Yoongis little brother. "What's it like taking care of your little brother?" Taehyung wondered aloud. He had JB and Youngjae, but he wasn't their actual blood big brother or their legal guardian.

"Its nothing special." Yoongi flipped the last of the sandwiches before turning off the stove." Feed 'um, make sure they brush their teeth and get to school on time. Make sure nobody bullies 'um "

He made it sound so easy. BamBam and Yugyeom were always going on and on about how much work it was taking care of he , namjoon and Jin. They always felt the need to drop into every converstaion all the times they had to pay for a kids medical bills when Namjoon beat the up, or all the times Jin got a cavity because he loved sweets so much , or when Taehyung was in his emo phase and everything he owned needed to be black just like his soul.

"Tae eomma why didn't you tell us your boyfriend was coming over?" Jae asked bouncing into the kitchen with JB in tow. They sat to the table and faced the elder male.

"Yoongi isn't my boyfriend!" Taehyung scolded them for making such accusations.

JB rolled his eyes "I could eat a can of alphabet soup and shit out a more true statement" he mumbled.

Youngjae smacked him on the arm "Table language!"

Yoongi moved to the table with the rest of their lunch. Peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. Arnold Palmers and chocolate milk for Jae. A few packs of oreos for desert. Who could ask for a better meal?
"What's table language?"

"The adults in our family cuss a lot" Tae began.

"So to prevent the kids from picking it up, or at least not using it in formal situations we created table language." Youngjae finished. His little button nose was scrunched up in distaste. "As punishment, no kisses for you today."

JB choked on his drink. "Choi Youngjae! That was a secret. " he squealed, face beet red.

"Why?"

"Because we're brothers!"

"Namjoon hyung and Jin hyung are brothers."

"That's not the point!"

"I'm just showing my affection for you~"

"You can't just say things like that in public!"

Youngjae was pouting now. He slumped down in his chair and pulled his light blue hood down over his head "you don't have to shout, I understand" He whispered.

JB's eyes shifted back and forth from the sniffling Jae to Taehyung screaming 'help me out!' Taehyung raised his hands innocently. He couldn't get in between that. What went on between 2j stayed in 2j.

Yoongi was the one to step in. If it was one thing he hated was the sound of a kid crying. Not because he cared, no he would never admit that. But Because the sound was plain annoying.

"Do you think Taehyung and I would make a good couple Jae?"

The child stopped sniffling and looked up with wide eyes. "Yes." He nodded.

"Oil and water don't mix" JB whispered under his breathe.

"I think so too, I would love it if Taehyung would show me as much affection as you do Jaebum, but alas his heart belong to another." He glanced at Taehyung and smirked. "I'll tell you a secret though. Can you keep it?"

Youngjae nodded frantically, fully emsersed in the show.

Taehyung sat watching , silently chewing on an Oreo. He had to admit Yoongi was a good actor to go to such lengths to make his cousin feel better. Under all that hard bullshit he was quite soft.

Yoongi stood and leaned across the table and cupped his hand around his mouth "this is all part of my plan!" He whisper shouted.

Youngjae pulled back with a gasp. He glared at both JB and Taehyung before giving Yoongi a thumbs up. He took the fake key and locked his mouth shut. That secret would be safe with him. At least it would have been if Yoongi hadn't said that right across the table, quiet, but still loud enough for all to hear.

"Youngjae, are you planning to sell me off?" Taehyung asked, pretending to be hurt.

Youngjae smiled brightly. He took and Oreo from Taehyungs pack and broke it in two sides. Giving the side without the cream to JB he dipped the other in his milk.

"If he names the right price sure." JB said accepting his cookie.

Yoongi winked at the brunette. "Don't worry. I won't be too strict of a boyfriend."

"You guys have nothing better to talk about do you?" Taehyung whined, his face feeling a bit hot.

"We could talk about our second date if you want, since this one was crashed after all."

"Selling me off it is"
