Hey guys! This is from Yoongi's POV again and we get a little insight on his friendships. Enjoy!

Question of the day: Do you have a favourite actor?

Yoongi cursed the day alarms were invented. He was forced to wake up at seven in the morning if he wanted any chance of reaching Big Hit early enough for his meeting with Bang PD. It took him a few tries to get out of bed but soon, he was getting ready for work. By the time he arrived, he had just enough time to go to his studio and put down his things before going to his meeting. It was only a simple one to discuss upcoming projects and where he was in his current progress. He had been glad to report that he had finished up the album he had been working on and Bang PD seemed pleased by it too.

Yoongi made it back to his studio feeling a little more ready for human interaction, his conversation with his boss doing enough to lighten his morning struggles. Just as he was settling back into his chair, his phone dinged and he pulled it out of his pocket to look. It was an Instagram post from Jin.

Fanficismyjam ^^ I wanna know too

dyingevryday ^^^ I bet it's a new drama

Yoongi shook his head as he read through the comments. He and Namjoon were some of the few people who knew about Jin's upcoming role in a new drama. Aside from the people involved in the making of the show and Jin's staff, they were probably the only ones. It made sense. Namjoon was Jin's boyfriend. They had been together for so long they were practically married. Yoongi expected one of them to actually pop the question soon.

As for Yoongi, Jin was his other best friend. He had been the first real friend Yoongi had made in Seoul after they had bumped into each other. It was the typical affair, but only at first.

Yoongi had decided to check out a café near to his apartment and after stumbling over the prices for long enough to get the cashier irritated, he had ordered an iced Americano. It was simple enough and he couldn't deal with too many choices at that moment. He had been caught up in his own grief, too busy wallowing over his breakup that had occurred only a week ago to notice someone stepping into his path.

When Yoongi had turned, he found himself spilling his overpriced coffee on someone's overpriced sweater. He had been tired and upset and that event hadn't helped his mood. So, when the person had said something witty, Yoongi couldn't stop himself from snapping back.

"Wow and this was Chanel," the broad shouldered man said, looking up. Distantly, Yoongi noted that he was actually quite attractive. "Is this how you pick up people? Must not work for you a latte."

Yoongi's eyebrow twitched, "Excuse me?"

The man smiled, his lips parting to let out laughter that reminded Yoongi of a windshield wiper.

"Get it? Latte? From the English phrase 'a lot'? That would've worked on my boyfriend. Never mind. It was a cheap shot anyway."

The man laughed again and Yoongi got the distinct feeling that he was supposed to find that funny.

He didn't.

"Look, I'm sorry about your sweater, but I need to go."

He made to push past the man but was blocked.

"Wait, that's it? You don't want an autograph?" At Yoongi's blank look, he pouted. "Don't you know who I am?"

"A dumbass who tells terrible jokes to people who clearly don't have time? Cause I think that might be it. Find me when you have better social awareness. Or better yet, don't. I'd like that much better. Now, move."

Later, Yoongi would apologize for saying that but at that moment, he couldn't care less. He pushed past the gaping man and trudged off down the street. It would only be good luck if he didn't see him again. Of course, that meant the man chased after him.

He heard someone calling after him soon after he had stormed off.

"Hey! Hey, you! I know you can hear me, so stop speeding up!"

Yoongi let out a frustrated sigh and turned around, ready to snap again but stopped short at the man's apologetic look.

"Hey, I didn't mean to make you upset. You looked like you were having a rough day, so I thought some humour might cheer you up. If you want, I can buy you another coffee as an apology."

Yoongi paused. He took in the man's handsome face, twisted into a guilty frown, his stained sweater and awkward countenance. It was obvious he didn't apologize to many people. Yet, here he was, coming back to Yoongi after all the rude things the younger man had said. He could have very well just let him go.

Yoongi felt the tension bleed out of his shoulders and he pushed down the guilt that was building up in his chest.

"Yeah. Yeah, okay."

They had exchanged numbers afterwards and despite Yoongi's initial wariness, they became friends. He found out that Jin was actually an actor and model and that his boyfriend, Namjoon, was a producer and rapper at a small company. He met Namjoon shortly afterwards and got an interview with Bang PD the next week after the other rapper had heard his mixtape. And the rest was history.

Seeing the post, Yoongi suddenly remembered his conversation with Jimin and an idea came to mind. He wasn't quite sure how he felt with his ex-boyfriend back around, but it certainly wasn't a bad feeling. He hoped they could find a way to at least be civil and before he could stop himself, he sent another DM to Jimin.

Hey
Sorry about cutting our conversation short last night
Could I maybe take you out for coffee later?
Just to talk. I promise

After a few tense minutes of waiting, Yoongi got back a reply. In the privacy of his own studio, he visibly sagged with relief upon seeing it.

PJimin
Sure. I'd love to
