FIND A WAY TO
BE TOGETHER

What's it like? What's it like to be able to openly date someone without the idea of losing your only source of income. Taehyung is devastated- oh so- hurt, he's hurt. He wants this he wants this relationship with Jungkook but the world was spiraling. Maybe he's being too drastic, but Jin has no idea what the situation was between Jungkook and him.

One of the rules within facility is:

"One may not date a client as shown as favoritism. If heard or seen you will be resigned or worst consequences."

The only way for him was to tell Jin and see if he'd allow it but it's not as simple as you may think.

His pen taps lightly on the clipboard as he puts together simple notes on ways to tell the older about his relationship. It wasn't helping that Jimin was in the same room discussing his issues with Yoongi.

"Taehyung are you even listening?" He was annoyed.

"Jimin you do realize that I don't talk to Yoongi we aren't on best terms." He sighs. He sighs because he still knows that Yoongi was Jungkook's past lover.

It still hurts him when he sees them hanging out but it was only natural - jealousy I presume - he was being lenient.

"I don't care Tae." He pouts as he frustratedly puts his head down on the opposite end of the younger's desk.

"I tried to kiss him the other day.."

The tapping stopped and the room fell silent. The only thing being heard was the sound of a wheelchair being rolled down the hallway followed by a pair of footsteps.

The sound of soft sniffles coming from the older. He was rejected once again, although this time he wasn't going to push Yoongi into something he didn't want to do.

"I-I'm guessing it went bad." Taehyung says quickly taking his attention away from the piece of paper to Jimin. He walks over sitting next to Jimin in the vacant chair that was right next to him.

"I k-know I shouldn't have asked but I couldn't help it I-" he cries. Tears on his soft cheeks as he wipes a new stream with the small part of his sleeve.

"Maybe I was rushing it?" He questioned.

Taehyung shakes his head;

"Jimin you're perfectly fine - we're both are kinda, well- in the same situation." He says softly.

Jimin lifts his head looking at Taehyung with soft expression. "H-how?" He says wiping his tears with his hand this time listening to Taehyung.

"Well Yoongi can't really afford to lose his job. He's a professional therapist such as myself."

The crying stops. It stops and Jimin could say that Taehyung was quite good at comforting him. More than he could himself.

"You're saying." He sniffs softly.

"What I'm saying is that Yoongi is trying to protect you and his career at the same time." The pink haired male says rubbing the older's back softly.

"So don't cry okay! It's going to be fine we'll both get past it together, don't worry."

"Jungkook," Hoseok goes to sit right next to him on the cushioned chairs that sat in his office.

"Yes," he says slowly looking up from his phone.

The device screen showing athlete news about the two. Jungkook turns his phone off out of annoyance and places his water bottle onto the floor;

"You know that if the press finds out that you've been dating Taehyung things could get-"

"I know. I know. Okay."

"I'm just saying I don't want you to go through the same thing that had happened." Hoseok says softly. This wasn't a coach and student situation, this was a friend bonding with a friend. Jungkook knows that if things escalate that Taehyung could lose his job.

"I just want to see if his boss would accept us dating."

"Jungkook-" Hoseok eyes were full of sorrow as he watched the younger struggle day by day.

"Hoseok why is it so difficult. Why can't we just be happy. What does a stupid rule have to do with love."

He sighs. The water bottle that had been heavily tacked with stickers had been knocked down softly. With one flick of his finger the bottle fell.

A loud thump;

"It's not fair, I've been through this, but I don't want Taehyung to lose his job." He puts his hands in his hair tugging softly at his dark locks.

"Then find a way Jungkook."

He stares with his doe eyes - stares longingly; eyebrows furrowed.

"Huh?"

"Find a way Jungkook."

'Find a way.'

Something Jungkook has yet to have done. he needs find a way for the two to be together. He might have a plan. Either way it could go good or it could go bad. There's a 50/50 chance that it would succeed and Jungkook was ready. Oh so ready was he.

"T-thanks Hoseok." His lips forming a soft smile.

He smiles with his bunny teeth as he walks straight to the showers. He has a plan and he was excited, yet

terrified.

It's simple, finding a way to be together was the next step. The small stepping stool to something to flourish.
