Taehyung (V) and Yoongi (Suga) have been friends for years, bonded through their love for music and quiet understanding of each other's complexities. Despite their deep friendship, both have secretly harbored feelings for each other but never acted on them, fearing it might disrupt their connection. Taehyung is known for his vibrant, carefree personality, while Yoongi keeps his emotions guarded, showing his care through small gestures rather than words.
One rainy night, during a private rehearsal for an upcoming concert, tensions finally come to a head. Both of them have been struggling with internal battles-Taehyung's loneliness and fear of abandonment, and Yoongi's inability to express his emotions clearly. The rain outside mirrors their suppressed emotions, and during an intense argument over a trivial matter, the truth slips out.
