Taehyung looked at Jimin, dreading the sentence that had just come out of his mouth.
"Sorry what?" Taehyung asked, thinking he maybe didn't hear Jimin right.
"You heard me" Jimin stayed and crossed his arms. His grin rested and stayed planted on his face, watching Taehyung groan and beg him not to make him do it. Giving up hope that he would change his mind, Taehyung sighed, accepting his fate. He would ask out the next person to walk through the doors of the restaurant or he would have to come in on Saturday and clean the fryer.
"One more, truth or dare?" Taehyung asked Jimin. Jimin thought for a second and then said;
"Just because I feel bad for you, I'm going to say dare." Taehyung smiled and scratched his previous idea of what he would do.
"If I have to ask someone out, you have to propose to the person who comes in after that." Taehyung grinned, pleased with himself, as Jimin facepalmed. Taehyung could already feel the secondhand embarrassment that was radiating from the moment which would occur soon.
"Honestly, I'd rather clean the fryer." Jimin said through his hands. Taehyung raised his eyebrows. Had he won?
"Oh really?" He asked, leaning forward. Jimin nodded. "So you're coming in on Saturday?" Taehyung pestered Jimin, who sighed obnoxiously.
"Fine!" He said, turning and signing his name on a clipboard for Saturday cleaning duty. Taehyung chuckled to himself and spun in his sling chair, pumping his fist in the air. He had never won a game of truth or dare before so excitement filled him to the brim. Until it was replaced by dread when the bell to enter the restaurant rang.

Hoseok walked into the quiet restaurant slowly, looking down at his phone at the next text his father sent.
Father
When you finish getting the sandwiches, drop b Office Depot and get cardstock double thick paper. We're out.
Hoseok sighed and walked up to the front counter, not making eye contact with the cashier as he asked him quietly what he'd like to order. Hoseok continued typing on his phone and answered the voice;
"Just give me two breakfast hardee specials."
____________
From the moment Hoseok wandered through the doors, Taehyungs face flushed bright red. He really doubted agreeing to do go through with the dare. Jimin eyed Taehyung out of the corner of his eye. He covered his chuckling mouth with his hand. Jimin pulled out his phone, pretending to bust himself so that Hoseok would go to Taehyung to order. Hoseok slowly approached the blushing Taehyung and giggling Jimin. Taehyung noticed that he wasn't looking up from his phone and hoped he didn't the entire time so he had an excuse not to carry out the dare. Still, Taehyung looked at the ethereal Hoseok and stumbled across his scripted words.
"H-hello welcome to Hardee's w-what can I do for you today s-sir?" Taehyung faked a smile as he hid his shaking hands beneath the countertop as Hoseok, still avoiding Taehyungs gaze, stayed his order. Taehyung zones out and didn't understand a word he said. He found himself staring at the texting Hoseok and not looking away, or not wanting to. He stayed like this, getting lost in Hoseoks distracted visual, until he felt Jimins hand slap him, snapping him out of his trance.
"Uhm! Coming right up s-sir!" Taehyung said as Hoseok began slowly looking up. Taehyungs eyes darted down as to seem distracted by the cash register. Immediately, Hoseoks eyes light with recognition.
"Taehyung!" He beams brightly at the blushing boy. Taehyung looks up to meet eyes with the glowing Hoseok. He put his boxy smile on his face and heard Jimin's squeaky laugh from beside him. He tried his best to shove the red from his face to his ears but mostly in vain.
"How's your hand?" Hoseok asked sincerely. Taehyung looked down at his shaking hand, wrapped in bandage and held it up above the counter.
"It's better, thanks by the way." Taehyung said shyly. Hoseok smiled brightly and shrugged.
"It's no problem!" He returned, almost turning to leave before another blow landed on Taehyungs shoulder. Jimin raised his eyebrows and crossed his arms in front of him. Taehyungs stomach stifled with butterflies as he instinctively turned and grabbed Hoseoks wrist. He took a deep breath in, his heart pounding in his chest. Hoseok turned to look at Taehyung, confused and meet eyes with an anxious boy. Steadying his trembling hand, Taehyung stuttered our the words;
"So uhm, listen I was just wondering," he started. Jimin broke out in a terrible fit of squeaky laught beside Taehyung, causing his face to flush redder than before. Hoseok tilted his head in confusion, smiling at Taehyungs shy face. Taehyung took a deep breath in, calming his tingling stomach, and stumbled across his words.
"Would you go on a date with me?"
