Taehyung view

Its been days since yoongi had visited taehyung, those said days which had gotten colder, the city of seoul was even expecting snow to arrive in two days time, taehyung didnt know if he should be happy about this however.

He loved the snow, it was one of his favourite things to admire, but at times he detested it as it stopped him from selling his work on the streets, leaving him to stay home at his small apartment. It wasnt much, but his parents were paying for it and he's thankful for the roof over his head.

Currently, the male was sat on his own stool, a worn out one as he basically sits on it all day, painting his sketch he was working on the day that mint haired male visited him.

He paused, tilting his head back as he raked his eyes over the canvas in front of him. Satisfied, he nodded, continuing to paint the piece of fine work, whilst humming to the current pop song blasting through his earphones(that had paint all over them, it was a bad thing they were white) he bopped his head to the beat, not caring about the weird stares he got from people passing by.

An hour later taehyungs piece was completed. The male stood up from his stool, stretching his arms as he sighed at the feeling of his bones cracking, clearly indicating he worked hard. He picked up the canvas, placing it neatly behind him amongst the others, so it was visible to the public eye.

With a sigh, the male fished out his phone from the back pocket of his overalls, finding a certain name to call. He tapped on the contact, ringing the person, the words ' HOSEOKIE HYUNG ' appearing on the screen causing a smile to break out on taehyungs face.

"hello?"

"hyung! I'm done with my painting, can you come now?" taehyung cheerfully said, taking his hat - that revealed his long ( a mullet you could say) chocolate brown hair - and his glasses off in the process.

"of course tae, i'll be right there"

"thanks hyung, i wont be long today" taehyung replied, his hand reaching up to his hair, his long fingers ruffling his fringe in an attempt to Make it look good.

"take as long as you want, i dont mind, i'll go now yeah?"

"bye hyung" taehyung sighed in relief as he hung up, putting his phone back safely into his pocket, whilst making his way to the cafe right opposite the street.

The reason he called hoseok is because he works in the cafe across the street. Everytime taehyung took a break from his work he'd call hoseok, his friend of ten years now (taehyung was twenty three, he met hoseok when he was thirteen when he was new to highschool and they've been Friends ever since) to look after his area so no one would steal anything. You couldnt trust the other artists on the street, they'd most likely steal art supplies or art work at any chance they get.

Taehyung entered the cafe, looking for a certain brunette, smiling brightly once he found him. "hoseokie hyung" taehyung said happily as he made his way over to the male who was equally happy to see his bestfriend.

"tae, hi, i'm making my way over now, enjoy your break, we have christmas specials in now!" hoseok exclaimed to taehyung, showing him the special menu, taehyung giggling quietly as he took note of the different servings.

"thanks again hyung, i appreciate it" taehyung muttered as he looked up at hoseok with a genuine smile, who told him it was okay and they're bestfriends after all.

Once hoseok left, taehyung ordered a mug of hot chocolate along with little gingerbread men to get into the christmas spirit. He took the table in the corner as he liked the idea of privacy. Taehyung wasnt really sociable, he was very quiet and only talked when he needed to, however hoseok would be an exception.
