The weeks passed. Yoongi and Hoseok had worked on and off since their date a few Saturdays ago. They had gone out a couple times after that, but it would always get cut short by someone or something.

There would be times when Yoongi needed to run to his studio for work or Hoseok would need to go to the studio early for his dance class. They were both exhausted from the running around and not seeing each other.

Yoongi walked into the coffee shop with laptop in hand and slumped into his seat in the back. He sighed and closed his eyes that drooped from exhaustion.

"Black Americano for Suga." He heard a familiar voice call.

He opened his eyes to see Hoseok with his usual order and a smile on his face. Yoongi's exhaustion dissipated as he looked at Hoseok.

"I told you how much I don't like you calling me that." Yoongi said as he grabbed his hand after putting the drink on the table.

"Well, I have to maintain some professional atmosphere while I'm at work." Hoseok said in a whisper as to not disturb the other customers.

"Hey, I came up with an idea." He said with a grin.
"Why don't you come over to my place for our date tonight. It's close to the studio and your office so if one of us gets called, we can go right back after. What do you think?" He said expectantly.

Yoongi frowned and his brows furrowed.

"I don't know..." Yoongi said as his voice trailed off.

"Pleeeeeeaaaaase!" Hoseok complained while squeezing Yoongi's hand.

"Okay, okay! Text me your address and I'll be there at 6:10." Yoongi said with a worried expression to see if they'd disrupted anyone in the store.

"Come by at 6:30. I have to set things up before you get there." Hoseok said as he looked around to see if anyone was watching them. He quickly pecked Yoongi in the cheek and whispered into his ear.

"Bye kitty."

As Hoseok walked away, Yoongi flushed with embarrassment. He had no idea when Hoseok had decided to call him that but he kinda liked it. No one he'd dated had ever used a pet name for him, except....

He shoved the thought away and decided to focus on his work and his date later that night.

Hoseok POV:
Hoseok raced out of the shop and fumbled his keys to his car. It was currently 6:15 PM. His shift had gone over time and he only had fifteen minutes to make everything perfect at home. He finally unlocked his car and rushed home.

When he unlocked his apartment door, he rushed in and got everything ready. He got blankets, pillows, and snacks put in front of the TV and turned the lights off. He plugged in his fairy lights, which were a gift from his sister, and grabbed a few drinks. As he rushed around, he finally stopped in his room. He walked up to his bedside table and opened the top drawer. He stared at the contents. Inside there was a small box that held something that he needed to give to Yoongi tonight no matter what. He also had the necessary items for-

'GAAAAAAAH! Stop it! We are not doing it until I have his permission and we have been dating for a while!
But that's not what you want! Follow your native instincts! Just do it you wimp!
NO!'

He grabbed the box and shut the top drawer violently, angry at himself for even thinking that. A few minutes passed when Hoseok heard a knock on the door. He made his way over and took a deep breath.

He opened the door to see Yoongi standing with a bag slung over his shoulder and a sweatshirt covering his thin frame. He wore black jeans with white sneakers and his hair was messy as always.

"Hi." Yoongi said with a slight smile.

"Hi." Hoseok replied.
"Come on in."

Yoongi's POV:
"Wow! Hoseok this is amazing!"

Yoongi walked into the main room that was dimly lit with fairy lights strung across the ceiling. There was a small fort of pillows and blankets that sat in front of the TV. Snacks were scattered around and the temperature in the room made perfect snuggle weather.

"Hoseok, did you do all of this?" Yoongi asked in shock.

"I wanted to make tonight really special. We haven't had a real date in ages so I wanted to make sure that everything was perfect for you." Hoseok said as a smile ran across his face.

"Hoseok..." Yoongi said with a happy smile.
"Thank you. I really needed this."

"Hey, I've been meaning to ask you. What's in the bag?" Hoseok questioned.

"W-well..." Yoongi stuttered.
"I was h-hoping that since today is Friday...I could...I mean, I don't want to be a nuisance, b-but-"

Yoongi felt Hoseok pull him closer into a hug.

"Of course you can stay over." He said as Yoongi felt his cold lips on his forehead.

"T-Thanks."

"Now, let's get you rapped up. You're freezing."

They had been watching movies for a while. Hoseok and Yoongi snuggled into each other and talked in between scenes. They talked about their work and schedules for the coming weeks. Both took a sigh of relief when they discovered that both of their off days matched up. As time went on, Hoseok couldn't help but feel nervous. He couldn't keep his heart rate down enough so that Yoongi wouldn't notice. Yoongi looked up at him as the movie ended.

"Hoseok, are you okay? You're heart is beating really fast. Are you...nervous about something?" Yoongi said, looking up at him.

'Fuck. Well I guess I'm doing it now.'

He shuffled him and Yoongi around until they both sat on their knees facing each other.

"Yoongi, I have something I need to tell you...or rather, ask you." Hoseok started.

Yoongi looked at him with a concerned expression.

"What's wrong? Did something happen?! Are you leaving the city?!"

"What? No! Nonononono! It's nothing like that, it's just..." His words trailed off. He look a deep breath and stared into Yoongi's dark eyes.

"We've been going out on dates for a while now. Heck, I even told you that I liked you a lot." He said, rubbing the back of his neck in embarrassment.
"I really want to see where this goes. I don't know how much time we'll get to spend together or how often I'll be able to hold you like I am, but, I do know that I really like you, and I want to spend more time with you. Not just as a friend or crush, but as your b-boyf-f-friend."

He stuttered on the last words as he took the small box out of his pocket and blushed. He opened the box to reveal a necklace with a coffee cup charm. On the cup were the engraved initials "Y + H."

"S-S-So, what do you say?" Hoseok trembled.
"Will you be my boyfriend?"
