"Do you have any idea as to what is going on?"

Taehyung asked Jimin, chin propped up on his hand. Jimin sighed and fed Taehyung another spoon of ice cream. The two soulmates were thinking about the current problem in the dorm. Seokjin had missed two days of dance practice along with Yoongi and even though Namjoon had told the trainer that their eldest hyung was ill, the actual reason of their disappearance was still a mystery.

"Do you think... that hyung..." Jimin trailed off, putting a spoonful of ice cream in his mouth but chewing slowly.

"What?" the younger asked, confused at the sad face of his friend.

"Do you think... Seokjin hyung... is in depression?"

It wasn't unlikely, both of them knew that. Seokjin had been the target of hateful and mean comments for years and some people just couldn't let him live. But he was also a realistic person who believed in sharing his problems if they were too much to handle.

Taehyung frowned at the thought of his brother going through such a painful time. He had seen closely how much Jimin had been destroyed by the constant criticism on his weight and it had taken the boy years to finally not hate himself.

Their Jimin was not the same boy he had met in high school, a lot of sparkle in his eyes and carefree smile had disappeared along with his chubby cheeks.

"We should do something" Taehyung suggested, closing the box of frozen chocolate treat.

"But we don't know what is actually going on with Seokjin hyung."

"What is going on with Seokjin hyung?" the two singers looked up at the voice of the maknae. Jungkook had stayed behind to practice for a longer time and now he was drenched with sweat. "And where is Hobi hyung?"

"I saw him go into Jin hyung's room along with Yoongi hyung, they looked worried" Jimin answered.

"We should take hyung to the hospital if he's that sick."

Jimin and Taehyung shared a look at the comment. Jungkook was told that Seokjin is just ill, nothing major was wrong with him, so as to not make him worry. The maknae loved all his hyung but Seokjin was like his home, his safe place, and if he knew that something has happened to his hyung, only God knows how much the boy will worry.

"Uh yeah, they might be talking about that" Taehyung quickly said, getting up. "I think I should go ask them."

And with that he rushed away.

"What the hell is going on?" Jungkook asked, thoroughly confused.

Jimin sighed and ran his fingers through his hair, "I wish I knew."

When Hoseok opened the door, he was surprised to see Taehyung in front of him. The boy looked shocked and kind of scared when the elder came out of the room. He had wanted to peek in, to see how his hyung was but the door was closed way too soon.

"Do you need anything, Tae?" the question was not said in a mean way but Hoseok sounded a little bit strict.

"We were worried for hyung..." and that was enough to ease the slight tension from Hobi's face. The elder gave a small smile and patted Taehyung's shoulder, "Hyung will be okay, he has us taking care of him."

"But we are not taking care of him! Only you two are!"

He knew he was being unreasonable but honestly, the thought of his hyung going through depression was scary. He had always taken care of Taehyung, even when they had fights, Seokjin was the first to approach the timid boy. He cannot just sit quietly and wait.
