Surprised wasn't a word for Seokjin since he got to know Taehyung. He wasn't surprised when he locked his eyes with Taehyung. He wasn't surprised when blood rushed fast in his veins and pumped his heart bad. He wasn't surprised when Taehyung asked for strawberry cake. He wasn't surprised when Taehyung jumped in his arms crying. He wasn't surprised when he showed up and they danced for so long. So, he wasn't surprised at all when they cuddled on the couch watching some dramas. Taehyung's back was facing Seokjin's chest. His head pillowed on Seokjin's forearm and Seokjin's other hand was resting on Taehyung's side. He didn't know when they got this close to watch drama in this position. Really, why Taehyung was entering in Seokjin's life so slowly, so sneakily? Why Taehyung was turning to be Seokjin's whole world? Was it okay? Was it not? Was it good that Seokjin danced with Taehyung? Will it be okay if he danced in front of Taehyung?
Seokjin checked his watch. Taehyung never came over earlier than 10. It was just Taehyung came and stole the nights Seokjin spent to dance. They danced together too, but it wasn't professional. It was simple dances everyone knew. Seokjin secretly loved this. Loved to spend his time with Taehyung. The strawberry boy reached out to places Seokjin never let anyone approach.

"You sure, you had dinner?" Seokjin asked softly. Taehyung turned his body completely to face him, turning his back to his favourite drama.

"Yes, I had Hyung" Taehyung mumbled. His hand caressed Seokjin's forearm maybe too intimate that it made Seokjin goosebump.

"You always say that," Seokjin said. Enjoying Taehyung's warmth.

"You want to eat dinner with me?" Taehyung winked, he had a smirk on his lips that Seokjin forgot his name by staring at it.

"Maybe" he didn't lose his cool but deep down it was burning.

"Jinnie Hyung" Taehyung called him, ignoring the subject completely.

"Do you know Hobi Hyung is in love?" Taehyung whispered it as a secret.

"In love with who?" Seokjin whispered like gossip girls that made Taehyung laugh.

"Isn't it obvious?... I noticed it but I thought you already know it" Taehyung said.

"Why you think I should know such a personal thing?" Seokjin asked, curious about Hoseok.

"Well you are the observant brain here, that's why," Taehyung answered.

"So he is someone from your group?" Seokjin asked. Taehyung nodded.

"See, you are smart that you guessed without a clue " Taehyung answered. Seokjin chuckled and held Taehyung tighter.

"Who is this lucky person?" Seokjin asked.

"Don't say to anyone... But he is in love with Jungkook" Taehyung whispered. Seokjin was a bit surprised when he recalled all those moments he catches Hoseok's eyes on Jungkook. But, wasn't his eyes sad a bit?

"Jungkook..." Seokjin repeated.

"I know he is oblivious..." Taehyung said. His eyes soft and a bit sad.

"Why Hoseok is not making a move?" Seokjin asked. He recalled the conversation he had in the library. How he talked about the boys with proud and how they all worked hard.

"He thinks Jungkook is young and also... He thinks Jungkook doesn't love him that way" Taehyung answered. Seokjin knitted his brows.

"He thinks? So Jungkook has feelings too?" Seokjin stated. Taehyung nodded.

"I don't know the depth of his feelings but he loves Hoseok so much," Taehyung said.

"Why he is not making move then? " Seokjin asked. Thinking about the twist.

"He thinks Hoseok likes Jimin... The two spend so much time together so they are close..."

"And Jungkook misunderstands this as romantic closeness?" Seokjin said.

"Exactly... As I said you are so smart" Taehyung grinned.

"I'm not smart.. This is more attractive than the drama we are watching" Seokjin teased. He saw Taehyung widening his grin.

"Would you be my mate?" Taehyung asked suddenly. Seokjin's mouth fell down, what did Taehyung mean. Mate? Could they be? He gulped before answering.

"Mate?" His voice almost cracked.

"Yeah! Teammate to push Hobi Hyung and Jungkook closer bit" Taehyung exclaimed and Seokjin gulped again. Somewhat he wanted mate to mean something else.

"I don't think it's okay to involve in others love life, Tae" Seokjin said.

"I know. It's not involving, it's just a move to make them understand they should do something" Taehyung said. Actually, Taehyung was right. If they both loved each other but both were cowards to make a move then the third person must push them together. Seokjin deeply hoped for this third person to push him toward Taehyung too.

"Okay, but small moves. It's their decision after all" Seokjin said. Taehyung nodded with his puppy face and a big grin.

"Thank you Hyung, I know you are the best mate in the world," Taehyung said. Seokjin couldn't respond when Taehyung wrapped his arms tightly around Seokjin and hid his face in Seokjin's neck. His lips touching the sensitive skin.

"I was jealous of Jungkook" Taehyung whispered.

"Why?" Seokjin asked he was aware of the jealousy but why it was?

"He goofed with you easily while I was so shy to approach," Taehyung said. Seokjin closed his eyes and smiled.

"You were shy? You never seemed like that" Seokjin whispered. Warmth and firmness forcing Seokjin to sleep even with television's sound.

"I tried a lot to seem cool and mature, " Taehyung whispered.

"You didn't have to, you are my strawberry boy in any condition, " Seokjin whispered without thinking, so sleepy and in haze.

"Mon Avenir but maybe le mien tout le temps" Taehyung whispered. Seokjin smiled.

"Since when you know French?" Seokjin asked.

"Since you gave me two words I didn't know what it meant. Can I stay?" Taehyung asked.

"I wouldn't let you go anyway," Seokjin said. Taehyung giggled sleepily.

"Good night Hyung" Taehyung whispered.

"Good night," Seokjin said. He didn't sleep though, he was in a haze like dreaming pinky fluff clouds. Seokjin didn't want to sleep the way he enjoyed this ticklish feeling in his heart. Like a long sip of old wine. A light drunkness. Maybe a heavy one.

"Je suis à toi pour toujours" was the last thing slipped out of Seokjin's lips before drifting to sleep.
