Hoseok and Yoongi go downstairs into the breakfast hall.

They are looking around for Taehyung and Jungkook, when they see Jungkook waving a hand, sitting on one of the tables with Taehyung and Namjoon.

Yoongi and Hoseok walk over to their table.

"Woah! You guys look nice." Taehyung compliments with a smirk.

Jungkook's eyes are wide open and his mouth is slightly parted. (A/N: golden maknae be jungshooketh all the time.)

"Hey! Why don't you ever look at me like that?" Taehyung asks, smacking Jungkook's shoulder playfully.

Jungkook rolls his eyes.

"You guys better get changed before the competition. It's gonna get rough." Namjoon says, clasping his hands together and resting his elbows on the table.

Yoongi and Hoseok sit down.

"What do you mean, rough?" Yoongi asks.

"I'll explain while eating." Namjoon states, smiling at the waitress who comes to their table with a platter of breakfast.

"Wow, Namjoon. This food looks great!" Hoseok says.

"Compliments to the chef, hyung." Namjoon smiles.

There are five plates of pancakes. Each with blueberries, maple syrup and some fruits on the side.

The waitress walks back over with five glasses of apple juice. She sets them on the table.

"Kamsahamnida." Namjoon smiles at the waitress, who bows and leaves.

They dig in.

"Okay, so.. I'm not supposed to be telling you this, but.. the competition is a survival competition." Namjoon is almost at the end of his sentence when Yoongu spits out his apple juice.

"Ew, hyung." Jungkook scrunches his nose and backs away.

"A survival competition?!" Yoongi asks.

"Shhhhhh.." Namjoon shushes him, looking around to see if anyone heard them.

"But I suck at outdoor shit." Yoongi complains, reducing his voice to a whisper.

"That's why there's a team, hyung. I will help you. I have a lot of experience." Hoseok says, patting Yoongi's shoulder.

"Nice." Taehyung says.

"Yes, it's a team-based survival competition, in the jungle." Namjoon continues. "You have to survive for four days, using the starter tools we give you. Basically, a knife, a water bottle, and a first-aid kit. The rest of the needed materials, you will gather by yourself."

"I'm scared, hyung." Jungkook says, hugging Taehyung.

"Don't worry. We're gonna get through the competition, Kook-ssi." Taehyung says comfortingly, patting the younger's head.

"You better help me or else I'm gonna die." Yoongi tells Hoseok.

"Don't worry, hyung. Like I said, I'm experienced." Hoseok smiles.

Yoongi smiles back.

"What's going on between you two?" Taehyung asks.

"Yeah, you aren't acting like you're gonna kill each other." Jungkook adds.

"We are friends, now." Yoongi says, threateningly.

This warns Jungkook and Taehyung, both not to question them again.

"Yeah, 'just friends' my ass, when you're gonna be fucking the life out of each other." Taehyung mumbles so only Jungkook can hear him.

"Wanna bet?" Jungkook whispers back.

"Later." Taehyung whispers.

"So, I suggest changing into some warm clothes and comfortable shoes. Meet me back here at 1:00pm sharp." Namjoon claps his hands.

"Alright hyung." Jungkook says.

"Last goodbye?" Taehyung says, hugging each person, whispering a good luck in their ears.

To Hoseok he whispers, "Tell me how big he is, 'kay?"

Hoseok chokes on his spit and pushes Taehyung.

"I'm kidding." Taehyung laughs.

They all hug each other, mumbling 'goodbyes' , 'see you laters' and 'good lucks".

Yoongi and Hoseok make their way back to their room.

"Holy shit, please help me Hoseok." Yoongi says.

His breathing is getting faster and faster.

"Calm down, hyung. It's okay." Hoseok tries to comfort Yoongi.

"No- it really- i-isn't." Yoongi gasps out.

His breathing is getting uncontrollably fast.

"Yoongi, hold my hand." Hoseok tells him.

Yoongi obeys, still trying to breathe.

Hoseok picks him up bridal style, and lays him on the bed.

"Yoongi, it's okay. Breathe with me, okay?" Hoseok helps Yoongi. He has his hand.

"Now, breathe in." Hoseok tells.

Yoongi tries breathing in.

"Breathe out with your mouth." Hoseok tells.

Yoongi exhales.

"In."

"Out."

"In."

"Out."

Now, Yoongi's breathing has slowed down.

"Good." Hoseok says. "It's alright, I'm here hyung."

Yoongi exhales once more. He has stopped shaking.

"Thanks, Hobi." Yoongi smiles. "You will stay by my side, right?"

"Of course, hyung." Hoseok smiles.

Yoongi reaches his arms out to Hoseok and grabs him in a hug.

Hoseok hugs him back.

"Okay." Hoseok says, after pulling away from the hug. "We have about four hours left until the competition. What do you wanna do?"

"Hmmm, sleep." Yoongi says.

"Yeah, we'll need it." Hoseok agrees.

"Turn around, I need to change." Yoongi orders.

"Why? Can't you go in the bathroom?" Hoseok asks.

"Because it's cold and I don't want to." Yoongi says.

"Fine." Hoseok says.

Hoseok has some interesting thoughts, as Yoongi is shuffling around behind him.

I wanna turn around, but I also don't. Should I?

Just as Hoseok Hoseok is about to make a decision, Yoongi interrupts.

"Done. You can go change." He says.

Yoongi is in his black kukamon pajamas. Hoseok finds it adorable.

He goes into the bathroom and changes into his pajamas.

Hoseok exits the bathroom and finds Yoongi already in bed with the quilt.

"Walk faster, I'm cold." Yoongi whines.

Hoseok chuckles and lies next to him.

Yoongi wraps his arms around him and puts one leg over him.

Hoseok's arms find their way around the older, as Yoongi snuggles into Hoseok.

"Sleep tight." Hoseok whispers.
