It's finally time, they've decided. The next time they're together in the dorm as a whole group, Jimin, Yoongi, and Taehyung are going to come out to the rest of the group.

They've been wanting to for awhile, but the group chat conversation that Jin instigated really set everything into motion for them. The rest of the group obviously noticed that Taehyung was spending more time with Jimin and Yoongi, both from that text and Namjoon's interference several weeks ago. Plus...they're all feeling a little guilty that they've kept it hidden for so long.

As Jin had described in their group chat, though, it's incredibly easy to fall into a rut of behavior and not even really notice it. The three of them got so used to sneaking around in the middle of the night, holing up in Yoongi's studio, having secret chat conversations when they had to be apart. It was so easy to keep doing that, to not risk change.

But there's not much of a risk when the Bangtan boys are involved. They have no doubt that Jin, Namjoon, and Hoseok will be just as accepting as Jeonggukie was when Taehyung confessed to him. But...knowing that doesn't make doing it any easier.

A night finally comes and Yoongi had already asked the others to meet them in the living room for a group chat. The trio are in their room, and Taehyung is nearly having a panic attack. He's sitting on the edge of the bed, head buried in his hands as he takes quick, ragged breaths. Jimin is beside him, rubbing soothing circles across his back and Yoongi is on his knees in front of him, talking softly in an attempt to urge the Omega to calm down.

"Deep breaths, Taehyungie," Yoongi is saying, bracing his hands on Taehyung's knees. "It's going to be okay, I just need you to breathe."

"What if they just think I'm intruding?" Taehyung asks hysterically, fisting his hands into his hair. "What if they think I'm j-just some kind of whore, w-what if they don't understand?"

"Taehyungie," Jimin murmurs, pressing his forehead to Taehyung's temple. "It's all going to be okay. Just remember Jeonggukie, yeah? He didn't bat an eye when you told him, right? What did he tell you?"

Taehyung sniffles a little. "He said the he was happy for us and that- that we would be good for each other."

"Exactly," Jimin coos, kissing Tae's cheek before pulling back a little. "And if our little, socially inept maknae thinks that, don't you think the others will feel the same?"

Taehyung barks out a helpless laugh, finally letting go of his hair and raising up a little. "I g-guess so. It's just...it's really scary."

"It is," Yoongi agrees, rubbing circles into the sides of Taehyung's knees with his thumbs. "But they are our family, and they deserve to know the truth."

Taehyung nods, but it seems to be more for himself than to show agreement. "Okay. Okay, just- just give me a minute, and I'll be ready."

"Of course, baby." Jimin says and presses another light kiss to Taehyung's cheekbone.

Yoongi rises from where he had been kneeling, leaning over to press a kiss to Taehung's, and then Jimin's, forehead along the way. "I'll go out and get everyone settled. Lord knows Jin is probably having a heart attack."

The Omegas giggle as their Alpha leaves. They give him a few minutes to make sure everyone is round up before Jimin finally stands, tugging lightly on Taehyung's arm. Tae takes a deep, settling breath and gets up as well. They leave the room arm in arm, Taehyung trying to wipe the terrified look off his face.

They had already told Jeongguk what was going to happen, so the youngest Omega wouldn't be too shocked. He had beamed at Jimin and Taehung, who had cornered him after dance practice that morning while everyone else was headed back to the van. He then threw his arms around them both, practically hollering, "It's about time!"
