Yoongi

  As I stand in the back of the coffee shop alone, my boss walks up to me and hands me twenty bucks, then starts to walk away. I look at the money with confusion and then call out to him. "Sir!" I said, making the tall man turn around and look at me.

  "What?" He says with a cold stare. He's very unfriendly to be owning a coffee shop that's supposed to be greeted with happiness, but he never even greets his customers.

  "What's this for?" I ask him as I raise up the money in my hands.

  He sighs and walks up to me. "I was told to give this to you as a tip. The person said to save it- and something about not spending it yet."

  "Who was it? Do you know?" I ask.

  "What's with the questions? Just take the damn money and work, or else you won't get your check!" He stormed off angrily.

  I smiled down at the twenty dollars and stuffed it in my apron. I guess I'll save it then. Maybe I'll use it when I need food again.

  I finally finish my shift and grab my money and phone out of my apron, not wanting to leave anything behind again. I walk home in the dark night as street lamps glow above me. I can hear walking behind me, but I merely think it's just someone innocently walking until I feel a hand on my shoulder.

I turn around in fear of being robbed or killed, but my fear turns to confusion as I see an old friend in front of me. "Jin?" I say as I get a closer look. "Seokjin? Is that you?" I question and the taller person smiles at me.

"Yoongi," Jin says to me and pulls me into a warm hug. "It's been forever since I've seen you." I hug him back and memories flood my brain. Me and Jin used to be really good friends until he moved away.

We were friends in high school, and his parents forced him to move with them because his dad had gotten a job offer in a completely different country. After that, we just lost all connections and went our separate ways.

"When did you get here?" I ask him as I pull out of the hug. We were standing near my apartment building under a lamp as we reunited with one another, and I couldn't stop myself from smiling.

"I'm back," He said with a smile. "I moved into a house that my dad bought me. It's somewhere around here, but I'm not sure where." Jin said as he looked around.

"Why don't you just come to my apartment and I'll help you find it tomorrow." I said, grabbing his hand and pulling him towards the direction of my apartment. "It's too late to be walking these streets, Jin."

"Call me Jinnie like you used to~" Jin whined as he let me drag him. I laughed as I opened the door to the building. He looked around at the entrance and realized that we were in my apartment building.

"Okay Jinnie," I said as the elevator door opened. Wow, It couldn't have done that earlier? "This is my apartment." I said as I pointed my keys to my door." Jin looked at me weirdly and suddenly came closer to my ear.

"Who's the guy staring at me?" He whispered. I turned around and saw Jungkook standing at his mailbox while staring Jin down.

"This is Jungkook," I said as I pointed at the boy with brown hair. "He's my neighbor." Jin and Jungkook stared at me like I was crazy before Jin cleared his throat and walked up to Jungkook.

"Hi," He said to Jungkook. "I'm Seokjin."

"Hello, Seokjin." Jungkook spit out his name. "I'm Jungkook, as Yoon said." He said as he shook Jin's hand with much power.

"Yoon?" Jin repeated and began to laugh. "You call him Yoon? And he lets you?"

"Shut up," I said as I opened my door and pushed Jin inside. "I told him not to." I shot a glare at Jungkook, who was already looking at me with no emotion. I closed my door and sighed as Jin kept laughing.

"Yoongi, man.." Jin chuckled as I showed him into my living room. "You've got him hooked."

"What?" I said blankly as I sat next to Jin. I threw my feet over the edge of the couch and stared at him with a raised eyebrow.

"Yoon?" He said for the tenth time. "You literally have him wrapped around your finger, how long have you known him?"

"I haven't even known him for a month," I said as I looked at him confused. "The only finger he's wrapped around is his own."

Jin shook his head and smirked at me. "Yoongi, did you not see the jealousy from him just because I was coming home with you?" He started laughing lightly again "I wouldn't be surprised if he had a secret shrine of you or something." He laughed even more, earning a little hit on the shoulder from me.

"No," I said as I rolled my eyes. "He's straight and I've made it clear that I don't like him as a human at all."

"Why not?" Jin asked me as he sat up.

"He's annoying." I said and crossed my arms with a loud huff. "Plus, he only thinks about himself, so I don't want him anyways."

"All boyfriends are annoying, trust me on that one." Jin said with a smile.

Jin has a boyfriend? That's actually pretty great. He's the one who made me realize that it's okay to be gay, so I'm happy for him.

"I'm sure your boyfriend is lucky to have you." I said with a smile in return. Jin cheerfully screeched into my ear and bounced up happily.

"Actually, you know him." He said, earning a look of confusion from me. "It's kind of a long story, but me and our old friend Namjoon kind of started liking each other in high school, we just didn't do anything because.. I left."

I smiled at the memories of high school. I remember Seokjin, Hoseok, Namjoon, Tae.. and Jimin.. Park Jimin to be exact; I remember him. I remember the way his angelic smile could cheer anyone up. I remember how he was smart and always bright. I remember how little he was and I can still see him dancing away with Hoseok in my old room.

I also remember the day he.. nevermind. I shouldn't be thinking about those things. Not right now, not while I should be reuniting with Seokjin.

"That's great, Jinnie." I said with a small smile. Jin moved closer to me and rubbed my back slowly up and down. He could obviously tell that I started thinking too much.

"High school days are over, Yooni." He smiled at me and then started to play with my hair.

As I felt myself starting to fall asleep, I stood up and left the room to find blankets, then I came back and covered both me and Jin up on the couch. He began to play with my hair again as I snuggled into the couch with my hand between my legs, ready for sleep to come take me away from this hell of a life.
