Eunkyung and Namil had immediately jumped to action, researching about self harm and seeing in what ways they could help him. Yoongi had stuck around for a while, showering Hoseok with hugs and kisses before having to leave for his own therapy.

Now he just sat on his bed, staring at the pictures of his friends he had hung on the wall. Too caught up in his thoughts he had not heard the knock on his door, only noticing someone's arrival when the door opened. Hoseok's eyes met Seokjin's, before he could do anything he was already engulfed in Seokjin's arms. "I'm so sorry for walking out."

"It's fine-"

"No it's not fine! I've known you since we were 8 and I never noticed a change. I'm... sorry for failing as a friend." Hoseok put his shaking hands on Seokjin. "You didn't fail... You made my life easier..." Seokjin hugged Hoseok tighter, resting his head on his shoulder. "Hobi, from now on I will help you."

"Y-you don't h-have to..." Seokjin pulled back from the hug, smiling at him. "Nonsense. That's what brothers are for!"

"Brother?" Hoseok looked at Seokjin with puppy dog eyes."Yeah. Brother." He smiled, rubbing Hoseok's upperarms. Hoseok looked down at his lap, a small smile tugging on his lips. "Thank you Jin." Hoseok wiped away his tears and cleared his throat. "I'm in the mood for good news and I'm assuming you have some."

"How so?" Seokjin crossed his arms, giving Hoseok a challenging look. "You seem happy. What's the news?"

"Nothing much." Seokjin tried brushing off. "Oh please, why was Jungkook here then?"

"....Well you got me there." Hoseok raised his brow at Seokjin. "Okay okay... Yeah we're back together. Wow on again-off again relationship I know."

"As long as you're happy it doesn't matter." Seokjin looked over at Hoseok who was flashing him a soft smile. "Same goes for you, I want you to be happy." Seokjin squeezed in Hoseok's hand.

"I'll try."

Yoongi sat in the waiting room, nervously tapping his foot on the ground. Hoseok was having his first therapy session with the woman that had approached him a while ago.

Yoongi didn't know what to expect, maybe this would give Hoseok more clarity but maybe this woman isn't the right one and just makes everything more blurry for him. Yoongi let out a small gasp. What if that woman would advice Hoseok to break up with him? What if Yoongi is actually toxic? Yoongi had a determined expression on his face, if that would make Hoseok feel better he'd accept it. Everything to make Hoseok feel better.

"Yoongi." Yoongi snapped out of his thoughts, Hoseok was standing in front of him, his arm extended towards him. Yoongi sheepishly smiled before grabbing Hoseok's arm and standing up. "How was it?"

Hoseok shrugged. "Odd."

"Do you think it will help tho?" Yoongi clutched onto Hoseok's arm but the boy just shrugged again. "I don't know... Maybe?" Yoongi sighed but put up a smile nonetheless. "One who doesn't take risks will not win."

The two stepped inside the elevator, a silence filling the small room. "Thank you for waiting for me." Hoseok muttered, rubbing his thumb over the back of Yoongi's hand. "I would be a terrible boyfriend if I didn't."

"You could never be a terrible boyfriend though." Yoongi's heart melted on the spot, looking up at Hoseok and smiling. "Neither can you."
