Sincerely, Yours

Yoongi watched as Hoseok climbed down the stairs after school to meet Jimin. Ever since their meeting at the park, Hoseok was almost always seen with Jimin. Yoongi's veins boiled with jealousy every time he saw Jimin and Hoseok.  Even though he knew Jimin had helped him reach home after he had fainted, he still couldn't hide the desire to be in Jimin's shoes.

Yoongi had this horrifying thought that Hoseok might think he's weird because of their experiences in the past, but Hoseok always approached him with a bright smile. Hoseok usually gave hugs to Jin whenever he met him, but Yoongi hadn't still reached that point. He scrunched up his face whenever Hoseok hugged Jin and when they pulled back, Jin secretly teased him. Jin played cupid for a long time, but Yoongi still hadn't managed to have a decent conversation. Yoongi tried very hard to talk to Hoseok, but it always ended with an awkward silence and Jin had to rescue him before things escalated downhill. 

Yoongi was amazed by Hoseok's level of patience. He never failed to put up a smile and stay positive even when all hope seemed lost. Yoongi adored Hoseok because of this and he seemed to bring him joy by just...existing. 

Jin noticed Yoongi staring at Hoseok and Jimin. He sat next to him a let out a huge sigh. Yoongi didn't seem to notice. Jin smacked his arm and screamed in his ears, "Are you just gonna watch your mans get stolen or are you gonna do something?"

Yoongi flinched and rubbed his ears. "That hurt, Hyung!"

Jin smacked his arm again. "Do something!"

Yoongi glared at the elder. "You know I've tried!"

"Don't stop trying then!!"  

Yoongi's shoulders slumped as he let out a long sigh. "Why would a guy like Hoseok want to date a guy like me? Hell, I don't even know if he's interested in guys!"

Jin replied, "He's bi." He immediately regretted letting that one out because it was Namjoon who told him that.

Yoongi raised an eyebrow. "And how do you know that?"

Jin flailed around for an answer. "I-uh got it from K-Kai! Besides, I know everybody!"

Yoongi suspiciously looked at him. "Kai, huh? And how did Kai know that?"

Jin started panicking a bit. "Yah, how do I know? We were talking about why Hoseok would want to date you!"

Yoongi obviously noticed the sudden change in the subject but decided to brush it off. "Yeah, tell me."

"Simple. Who wouldn't want to date you? You look like a cat, you rap good, you're scary.. and uh... " Jin trailed off. 

Yoongi laughed. "Thanks for the amazing pep talk. I have a better idea. Why don't you date me?"

Jin pouted. "I'm sorry, I'm already dating someone else. But don't worry, if Namjin fails, Yoonjin is on!"

Yoongi cringed. "Namjin? Yoonjin? I'm sorry, I changed my mind. I want Hoseok."

Jin pouted but then smiled. He got up and struck a pose. "Yay! Mission Yoonseok is back on!"

Yoongi sighed. "You're impossible, Hyung." He got up, stood next to Jin and struck the same pose with his fists pumped in the air. "Yay, Yoonseok." 

Hoseok had thought a lot about Jimin's invitation and after a lot of assurance from Namjoon and Taehyung, he decided to join the academy. Jimin was so excited to finally show him off at the academy. His friends had heard so much about Hoseok that it was like they all had already seen and known Hoseok their whole lives. So when Hoseok set foot into the academy for the first time, he was warmly welcomed by everyone. Hoseok was shocked by the wholehearted welcome by people whom he had never seen before in his life. One by one, they all introduced themselves.
