bruises (yoongi)

part 13

-That morning, you wake up on the wrong side of the..sofa. You didn't necessarily have the best night sleep after fretting about your friendship with Yoongi and your face was all swollen and rough when you woke.

-As you grabbed breakfast you heard Yoongi ask, "I assume you didn't sleep great then."

-"Not today Yoongi," You groaned back as you poured a glass of orange juice.

-"I won't be in the studio today, I'm scheduled for dance practice all day," he explained.

-"Ah yes! Studio to myself," you joked and he forcefully chuckled.

-"You sounds devastated," he exaggerated.

-"Oh I'm sorry, Oh no! Whatever will I do?!" You fake cried to wind him up.

-He chuckled and for a little you forgot why you had been in a bad mood that day. But as you gazed at him over the breakfast table, you were reminded why.

-You sighed and put your spoon back in your bowl, "I'm going to get dressed."

-"Alright grumpy, we're leaving in half an hour." He replied, not taking his eyes away from his phone.

-You groaned in response, but actually you were smiling.

-That morning at work, you email Band PD with the track you and Yoongi had prepared for TXT, then you got to work on the tracks for the boys' comeback.

-Everything had sort of been put on hold while you worked on the new group, but now you could hone in on the finalising of a few tracks.

-If you were being honest, it felt lonely in the studio and you couldn't help but second guess every modification you made to the tracks, but you tried to ignore it, working hard.

-You overheard in the coffee room that Tai had handed in his resignation and Lina was taking over the main role of doing choreography for the boys.

-You couldn't help but feel jealous as you knew she would be working in close proximity with Yoongi.

-You had lunch with Yoongi and he could tell you were down. "What's up? You've been frowning since you got up this morning," he asked, focused on eating his ramen.

-You shook your head, "Ah I'm just tired."

-For the rest of the afternoon you work as hard as your brain will allow, but you found yourself held back by the fog in your own head. What were you going to do about Yoongi? Concealing your feelings was an option, but how hard would that be.

-You allowed yourself to imagine what would happen if you told Yoongi how you felt and if you dated. You loved the idea, but it felt...like he was too good. Like he would be settling when he could actually achieve so much more.

-He would have to put up with you while you'd be counting your lucky stars with him.

-You felt so deflated but at the moment you had this thought, his bright face popped into the studio, "ready for home time?"

-You nod. "You look sweaty," you comment honestly as you packed your things up.

-"Thanks?" He chuckled. "It's all the dancing."
You just nodded as you were reminded of the time he was spending with Lina.

-For the whole car ride home, you just listened to Yoongi talk about the new choreography and added the occasional "yeah"

-"How about your day?" He asked, eventually noticing your passive nature.

-"It was a Monday, so what do you expect," you tried to joke, but your flat tone made it less funny.

-For the rest of the journey you listen to the radio in agreed silence.
