During the past few weeks, Yoongi visited Taehyung almost every day, trying his best to get to know him. Sometimes Seokjin and Jungkook joined him, and they got fond of Taehyung pretty quickly. Yoongi found it especially endearing how Jungkook and Taehyung got along so well, having similar interests. He's so glad that Taehyung saw them as his new friends.

Since then, Yoongi slept much better than before, and he woke up earlier than he'd used to - Seokjin even teased him with it, but he mostly ignored it, which was also an improvement.

He walked Taehyung home more than once too, enjoying each other's company, Yoongi listening to Taehyung talking about his day at work.

The only thing Yoongi was still struggling with was his emotions towards Jungkook - sometimes he still noticed that he was looking at Jungkook a bit longer than he normally should, or that he felt a small ache in his chest at the sight of him and Seokjin sharing a small peck on the lips or holding each other's hands. It's not that he was in love with Jungkook, but he was attracted to him, and it had been so long since he'd felt like this towards anyone that it was harder for him to take his emotions under control. He was happy for them, for Seokjin that after so long he finally had someone, and he didn't want to intervene.

That's why Yoongi felt guilty whenever he felt that tingling feeling while he was around Taehyung, when he saw his huge smile, or his flushed cheeks - he was attracted to Taehyung as well, but he didn't want to use him as Jungkook's replacement. He wanted to make sure that what he was feeling towards Taehyung was permanent, that it would transform into something more, and that Taehyung had similar feelings towards him.

He knew he could just use his powers, but he didn't want that, even if his curiosity was killing him. Taehyung had not told him too much about himself which was completely understandable, considering he was not an ordinary human. That's why he was so glad for all of the small bits of information Taehyung had told him, like how he'd moved into this city a short while ago - he'd been living with his grandparents before that, helping them out around the house and garden. Taehyung wanted to go into a university, planning to major in photography, so he decided to move here and get a job to save money for the course.

Yoongi accepted the fact that Taehyung was probably not going to talk about his powers, but he still hoped that one day he's going to open up to him. He also noticed how Tae hid his pain from time to time, Yoongi assumed that it probably had something to do with his wings, but he wasn't sure about it. But, until then, he still was going to do his best to get to know Taehyung.

As Yoongi had been for the past few weeks, he woke up pretty early, his inner nerves tingling - which was not new either. He'd talked with Taehyung the previous day and decided to visit him at the coffee shop. He quickly got ready and made his way to the kitchen. The delicious smell of the meal Seokjin was making hit his nose, making him close his eyes for a moment as he stepped into the kitchen. It was so tempting to eat, but he wanted to have breakfast at the coffee shop.

"Good morning, hyung!" Jungkook greeted him, he was sitting at the table, a heart warming smile crossing his face. Seokjin was sitting right next to him, mumbling a good morning with a mouthful of his breakfast.

"Good morning! Enjoy your meal." Yoongi greeted him back as he made his way towards the front door. He was showing his back to them so they couldn't see his blush - he felt how his cheeks started burning at the sight of Jungkook's sweet bunny smile. It was still hard for him to not get flustered around Jungkook when he was complimenting him or smiling at him so sweetly.

"You're heading to the coffee shop?" Yoongi heard Seokjin's question.

"Not right away - I have to go somewhere else first." He replied as he put his coat on. He felt someone's presence next to him so he looked there, seeing that Seokjin was standing next to him. "What is it?" Yoongi asked him with a raised eyebrow.
