A/N : This chapter will be in the perspective of Yoongi!! And Hoseok isn't psychic. Keep that in mind.
Fucking Kim Seokjin. Fuck him. Fuck everyone. Yoongi didn't need to listen to Mr. Perfect give him relationship advice like Seokjin himself wasn't the most emotionally constipated person alive. Seokjin had apparently had enough of Yoongi bottling up his feelings for Hoseok and Hoseok -supposedly- doing the same for heaven knows how long now. But heaven forbid Yoongi would believe anyone could fall in love with him. Seokjin guessed he was partially to blame.
Their little scream match the perfect cover to blanket the sound of Hoseok entering the apartment.
"You should give Hoseok a chance. He really likes you and it's eating him up. I know you can see it!"
Seokjin yelled no longer bothering to be reasonable since they've been going back and forth over this for nearly an hour. Yoongi is honestly pissed off that the first time they got to hang out properly in weeks was just so Seokjin could lecture him. He always hated when Jin played hyung. Did his best to make sure the older never had to like back when Yoongi first moved to Seoul and was the picture of rebellious teen fuck up. He wasn't some punk kid anymore and he didn't need Jin policing him any longer.
"And you're basing this off?"
Yoongi replied with an eye roll. Sure he saw how Hoseok was with him. Treated him so delicately most days and doted on him like a mother. He acted like the hyung in their relationship more often than not. And who would blame him when Yoongi was an emotionally unstable mess of a person. Easily prone to self destructive behavior both consciously and unconsciously wasn't exactly the type of trait people fell for. It was a trait good people like Hoseok see and do everything in their power to help.
But guess everyone had a limit because suddenly Hoseok wasn't around in the morning to swipe his fourth cup of coffee out his hands because..
"Too much coffee is bad for you hyung."
Nor was he reminding him to take his pills or eat dinner or anything. Hoseok was avoiding him all hours of the day and he knew it was his fault.
"A lot of things Yoongi. How he looks at you is enough of a dead giveaway. How he cares for you.."
"So what? I can start another relationship based totally off of pity?"
He sneered bitterly with enough bite that Seokjin flinched with shock.
It was a barely known secret that for a short while. Way before Hoseok moved. Only Jeongguk really knew since Seokjin told him everything.
Seokjin had seen a little broken Queer kid who didn't look like he fit into the hustle and bustle of Seoul and took him under his wing. But Yoongi was a prickly little thing. A sad little boy who got tired of crying for help and instead screamed bloody murder at a world that failed him. So Seokjin gave him something no one else had. Love. He loved Yoongi like no one else had bothered to and Yoongi was greedy for it. So Seokjin just gave him more and more of himself even if it stopped being the genuine platonic love he felt for Yoongi and a false romance because Yoongi needed it. Needed him. Jin was some spoilt Chabeol kid who never had to worry about anything the way Yoongi did and he'd used the younger to feel better about himself. He wasn't a selfish rich kid if he so selflessly gave himself to someone society considered below him. Then Yoongi had found him out and realizing the first person he thought loved someone as broken as himself was just lying. Doing it all out of pity and to feed an ego was beyond heartbreaking.
How they managed to remain friends was a mystery and not at the same time. Seokjin is a stubborn bastard when he needed to be. Didn't back down when Yoongi returned to his metaphorical prickly shell and instead fought to better not only Yoongi but himself. And then Seokjin found Jeongguk and Yoongi feared the worst but Seokjin had grown so much and didn't help the kid just to feel better about himself. In a way seeing how much Seokjin had changed through Jeongguk had been the final catalyst in mending their relationship.
