Chapter 1

Rest Your Love

How long must I wait for the last train to be here
And the last chance to know
Get to think that I was born too soon
How long honey, when the lovin' don't come
I was there when you left me
Just didn't know how to begin

"Are you really gonna keep staring at that picture like that?" Hoseok said as he walked out of the kitchen to his younger brother plopped on the couch wrapped in blankets "it's been 10 minutes now. If you're not gonna make a move, just do the dishes"

"Hobieee!!" Jimin whined "Just look at how beautiful he is" he turned his phone to the elder, showing him the picture of him and another guy.

"Yes I know he's beautiful and you're in love with him" Hoseok rolled his eyes "what's new?"

"Why are you being like that?"Jimin looked down to his small feet and muttered as his lips formed a pout. "I'm sorry that it annoys you"

Hoseok sighed. "Look Jimin, I-" he sat beside his brother and rested his hand on the younger's thigh "I didn't mean to it like that. You can never annoy me smurf" he smiled "unless you drink all the sprite"

Jimin let out a chuckle and turned to his brother "it's been long since you called me that"

"Called you what? Smurf?"

"Mh hmm" Jimin nodded.

"You want me to always call you that?" Hoseok tilted his head and rested his finger on his chin "but I feel like when you overuse terms of affection, they lose meaning"

"You literally never call me smurf now. When we were young you always called me that. I just hope you use it more often" Jimin adjusted the blanket so it covered Hoseok's legs as well "and stop thinking like that. You look stupid"

"You would know a lot about being stupid, won't you?" Hoseok raised an eyebrow.

"Of course" Jimin nodded his head in agreement "my brother is one"

"And my brother is one big lover boy who won't confess"

"You know I'm scared to lose him" Jimin bit his lip "What if I lose the friendship as well? It's not like we're not gonna see us ever after that. It'll be difficult to face him after the rejection and I can't even avoid interaction with him because you and Yumin are gonna be engaged soon"

"Yeah you're righ-wait" Hoseok realised and looked at Jimin who sat very opposite to him, holding a pout as he played with the loose ends of the blanket, pulling tiny threads "HOW DO YOU KNOW ABOUT THE ENGAGEMENT?!"

"Geez" Jimin covered his ears "Chill, will ya?"

"Ah sorry" Hoseok shifted back into the sofa "I just got paranoid. How do you know by the way?"

"You don't even have a good hiding spot, not my fault" Jimin shrugged.

"Excuse me? I hid it in the best place possible"

"In my bookshelf?" Jimin narrowed his eyebrows.

"it was yours?" Hoseok blinked.

"Yes small fries! It was mine" Jimin exclaimed.

"Yaah!!" Hoseok pouted "Don't call me that"

"What? Small fries? Oh I even have your contact saved as that" Jimin pulled up his phone and winked towards his brother "Maybe you should check your beloved girlfrie-oh sorry. Your fiancé's phone as well"

Hoseok's face tinted into a delicate shade of pink as the word fiancé was mentioned. "We are not engaged yet and don't tell me you told her this too"
