Cory and Kisu had gotten along well with Yoongi despite their bad first impression. Daehyun hung out with Jimin while they were staying around. Kihyun just hung out with Cory when Kisu was busy with Youngjae and Jooheon.

Yoongi was out shopping with Kihyun and Cory, just hanging out at the shopping center for a little bit. The others were busy with their own things so Cory, Kihyun and Yoongi went to the shopping center to hang out. They were sure that the others would meet them there eventually.

"So what brought you two out here?" Asked Kihyun as they walked around. "Came along to be in my thoughts a bit," said Cory. "Same," said Yoongi.

"I didn't realize you and Jimin were mates though," he said as he turned to Cory. "He's still as oblivious as ever it seems," he said, sighing. Cory chuckled some. "I don't even know when I'll break it to him," he said, sighing. "How'd you tell him?" He asked Kihyun. Kihyun shrugs. "I just went with it," he said. "Jimin eventually came around and agreed with it," he said. "He needed space to figure this out and be absolutely sure but," he said, shrugging. "He already lets you sleep in the room with us, try talking with him later," he said. "Again, all I wanted for him was for him to be happy," he said. "So I guess that's my blessing," he said. Cory nodded. "I'll figure something out," he said.

Kisu arrived with Youngjae and Jooheon as Cory stood outside of a store that Yoongi and Kihyun had gone into. "Left alone hyung?" Asked Kisu. "I didn't want to be dragged into a store with those two, flashbacks to when Hui would drag us out shopping," Cory said with a shiver.

Kisu snickered. "Hyung is scared of shopping? Wow," he said in Korean. "Ya! You weren't dragged along when Jeonguk and I were dragged along by Hui!" Cory said in Korean, slapping Kisu over the back of his head. "Next time Hui invites us to go shopping I'm shoving you to him you punk," he said. "Ow!" Whined Kisu as he rubbed the back of his head. "Oh shut it you," grumbled Cory as he turned to look back at the store. Youngjae and Jooheon were both confused, but from the way Cory had reacted they figured it had something to do with Hui and shopping.

"Whatever he said, I think you deserved that one," Youngjae said with a chuckle. "I forget you don't speak Korean," Kisu grumbled in English as he rubbed the back of his head. "We haven't been in an English speaking country in a while, we're so used to communicating in Korean," he said, sighing. "I mean I still know some French but," Youngjae said as he shrugs. "You know French? That's cool," said Kisu. "Haven't spoken it in a while," Youngjae said with a shrug. "But yeah," he said.

Kihyun and Yoongi came out of the store, spotting a moody Cory standing with Kisu, Youngjae and Jooheon. "Did Kisu piss you off again?" Asked Kihyun. Cory hummed in response as he shrugs. Kisu grumbled something in Korean, causing Cory to look at him. "I am not moody you punk," Cory said with a growl, causing Kisu to flinch at the sudden burst of Cory's alpha aura. "Calm down Cory," said Kihyun as he put a hand on Cory's shoulder. Cory took a deep breath, before walking away.

"Alright, what the hell did you say to piss him off this time?" Kihyun said as he turned to Kisu. "I was joking," Kisu said, sighing. "Cory hasn't talked to Jimin yet, there's a lot on his mind right now," said Kihyun. "Still?" Asked Youngjae. "He's hesitant," said Kisu as he sighed. "Experience with what happened with Jeonguk is keeping him from doing so," he said. Yoongi's expression hardened as he turned away. "Everyone doesn't want what happened to Jeonguk and I to happen to them," he said. Kihyun kept his expression blank as he turned to where Cory had wandered off to. "I'll talk to him," he said before following after Cory's scent to look for him.

"Cory," called Kihyun when he found him. Cory turned around, looking at Kihyun. "Don't mind Kisu, you know he didn't mean it," said Kihyun. "I know," Cory said as he sighed. "You'll be fine," said Kihyun as he put his hands in his pockets. "I know you have a lot on your mind right now,but you'll be fine," he said. "Just talk to him when we get home, if worse comes to worse I'm here for you," he said. Cory nodded. "Hopefully it turns out okay," he said. "I know it will," said Kihyun.

The others caught up to them after a few minutes, Kisu looking concerned. "I'm fine Kisu," said Cory as he turned to Kisu. "Sorry for that," he said, rubbing the back of his neck. "It's alright," said Kisu. "I shouldn't have pushed you like that," he muttered in Korean. Cory walked over and put a hand on Kisu's shoulder. "We'll be fine," he said in Korean. "Things will work out in the end," he said. Kisu nodded.

"I'm going to guess that things are okay now?" Asked Youngjae. Cory turned to Youngjae and nodded. "Things are alright now," he said in English. "I think we should head home then," said Kihyun. "We've been here the whole day," he said. "Doubt anyone else would come out," he said. Everyone nodded and headed home.

"Good luck Cory," said Kihyun when they got out of the jeep after arriving home. Cory nodded and headed off to find Jimin.

"Jimin," said Cory when he found Jimin by the lake. "Can we talk?" He asked. Jimin turned to Cory. "What's up?" He asked. "I wanted to talk to you about us," he said. Jimin tilted his head to the side. "We are mates aren't we?" Asked Jimin. Cory blinked. "That's what I wanted to talk to you about," he said. "How'd you figure that out?" He asked. Jimin smiled slightly. "Daehyun kind of told me," he said. "I spent the day out here again it seems," he said, sighing as he turned back to the water.

"Are you okay with this?" Asked Cory as he went to stand beside Jimin. Jimin nodded. "I know there's something there," he said. "I want to give it a shot eventually, but I want some time to figure this out," he said. "Don't take this as a rejection," said Jimin. "I won't," said Cory, as he looked relieved. Jimin turned to Cory, putting a hand on his shoulder. "If it bothers you that much, the couch is always open," he said with a chuckle. Cory laughs. "I'll be fine," he said. "Let's go home," he said before walking back. "Also!" Said Jimin as he walked after Cory. "You are teaching me Korean once I have all this figured out!" He said.
