It was already so late when Jin suddenly woke up that night. He was hugging Jungkook close to his chest and the younger had his legs wrapped around his waist. Jin chuckled as he tried to push the latter’s legs away and Jungkook just ended up facing the other side, still sleeping so soundly despite the fact that Jin pushed him so harshly.

He got up and stretched himself a bit before settled himself at the edge of the bed, his hands reaching for a bottle of mineral water on the night stand. He drank almost half of it in just two gulps and his lips formed a satisfied smile as he put the bottle back on the stand.

His eyes traveled all the way towards Jungkook who was still shirtless from their last night’s make out session. He almost thought he had gone crazy for suddenly smiling so wide just at the thought of what happened after they kissed on the rooftop.

They were both in a cuddly mood when they arrived at their room. Jungkook just instinctively spread out his arms as they were lying on the bed, asking for Jin to rest his head there. It was still to awkward for Jin to be so close to the maknae though they were actually that close before. However, it didn’t take long for him to end up in Jungkook’s warm embrace when the latter just showed his dominant side and pulled him closer.

They were talking all night about stuffs and Jungkook apologized for his childish behavior before but Jin just shook his head and said that they’re both childish actually. Now that they think about it, every fight that they had was just childish and they often fought needlessly. Jin felt warm all over now that they were both laughing it off and even quoting each other’s embarrassing lines with Jungkook shouting ‘quote me again and I’ll kill you’ and also ‘I hate you meanie’ repeatedly.

They also talked about their concept for tomorrow’s photoshoot. Jungkook threw in lots of creative ideas, well actually the ideas that he got from watching animes and reading comics. Jin said he was still considering which concept to go with and that was when they looked into each other eyes and ended up kissing each other like there’s no tomorrow.

Jin was snapped back to reality when he heard Jungkook mumbling something incoherent with his eyes still closed and his hands reaching out for something. The older raised an eyebrow questioningly before he caught his name coming out of Jungkook’s slightly parted lips.

“Geez maknae did you miss me that much already?” He muttered with a smile before he placed his pillow in Jungkook’s arms jokingly, not expecting him to kiss the pillow in such an aggressive manner. He victoriously made the younger sleep again but his legs were spread so widely that it took all the space left on the king sized bed.

“Damn this Mr. Spreading Legs now where do I sleep?” Jin complained and flailed his arms as he tried pushing Jungkook’s legs away but the kid was so persistent in trying to protect his territory. He gave up in exactly just 3 minutes battling with the younger—who was surprisingly still deep asleep—before he ended up changing his clothes, grudgingly kicked the bed (and ended up ‘ouching’ instead) then went out of the room.

“Woah seriously, why did I like that kid again? He’s so troublesome man, that kid is just—savage!” He made faces as he was talking and even exaggerated hand gestures as he imitated Jungkook. He really didn’t know where to head to since his head was still thinking of possible places he could go this late at night when the elevator stopped right in front of him.

“Jin hyung?”

“Namjoon!”

“Why the excited tone?” Namjoon chuckled as Jin rushed inside and the younger pushed a button on the elevator, his heart almost jumping out of his ribcage out of excitement. Who knows he would actually meet Jin this late anyway? Isn’t this a situation where people would point out something like—destiny?

It wasn’t that Namjoon didn’t realize the tension between Jin and Jungkook this whole day; it was just that he choose to ignore everything regarding the two. He didn’t want to be the one who cares so much and then ended up hurting himself. He concluded that he was already wounded badly and he doesn’t need to hurt himself anymore further.

However, seeing Jin by his side who was leaning against the side of the elevator just sparked something in his heart—which wasn’t exactly something new since he learnt that he fell for him. He couldn’t help himself but to realize that sulky expression on the elder’s face and his mouth blurted out a question though his head said ‘I don’t care about him anymore’.

“Where are you heading to hyung?”

“Anywhere.”

“You looked frustrated.”

“I blame Jeon Jungkook for that.”

“J-Jungkookie?”

“He sleeps like a wild animal seriously! He’s not even George of the Jungle—geez that kid. I just woke up to drink some water then he already took over the bed!” Jin complained about his boyfriend absent-mindedly while Namjoon was standing still and stared at him without any distinct expression on his face—well actually, he was taken aback.

There was just too much information that he had to sink in just with that short statement. First of all, as far as he knows, Suga and Jin shared a room while Jungkook picked Jimin as his roommate but from the way he talked—it seemed like they changed their partner after the date?

Second, he expected Jin to complain about the maknae’s rude behavior towards him at the car earlier when they just arrived. Yes, Namjoon saw the way Jungkook just went past Jin to join the others as if their oldest hyung is just one of the staffs holding the door for him. He didn’t expect Jin to actually let it slide so easily like that.

What is happening, really? It wasn’t even a few hours passed since he last met each other and he already missed so many information?

“Yo Namjoon!”

“Huh?”

“We’re at the rooftop.”

“Oh…”

“Aren’t you getting off?”

“Uh—“ He wrinkled his nose slightly as he was considering whether it would really be a good decision to be alone with Jin at such a romantic place this late at night. However, as soon as he saw Jin’s puzzled expression he just immediately got off the elevator and walked towards the edge of the building.

“Is something bothering you?” Jin asked as they both were staring off the night scenery of Jeju that was seen from the building. Namjoon closed his eyes as the night breeze gushed towards his figure, ignoring Jin that was still staring at him from the side.

“Namjoon…” Jin’s dragged voice was heard and the latter understood immediately that he was demanding for an answer. He just shook his head as a response, his lips curving up into a smile—a forced one.

“It’s nothing hyung, really.”

“You’re bluffing.”

“Bingo.”

“I get it, you don’t want to talk it out with me right?” He said, bringing his head down and before Namjoon could even say another word, Jin continued, “It’s okay I wasn’t supposed to be here anyway. I’ll let you have your space—“

“Can’t you stay?” Namjoon’s voice came out slow and deep as he held Jin by the wrist. The elder blinked a few times at that unexpected action.

“I—“

“I really don’t want to be alone, actually.” The younger who realized how Jin tensed up just by his touch released his grip on Jin’s wrist. He bit his lips, unsure of how the elder would respond to his request. It was already so late and he probably would love to return to his room and have a good rest before tomorrow’s photoshoot instead of hanging outside in the cold like this.

“Sure, if you want me to.” Jin grinned as he crossed his arms against his chest, hugging his own figure as it really started to feel so cold up there. He drowned in his thoughts for what felt like a thousand years about what happened with Jungkook up here a while ago before Namjoon suddenly called out.

“Hyung?”

“Yeah?”

“If I tell you everything this night, will you forget it all when tomorrow comes?”

“What do you mean?“ Jin quirked a brow in question as he stared at Namjoon’s side profile next to him, while the younger was still staring off the beautiful lights down the building.

“Promise me.” His voice sounded demanding and somehow it made Jin scared thinking about what he possibly had to say.

“No—Namjoon wait. At least tell me what I’m getting myself into.”

“If you can’t promise me then I won’t tell you.” Namjoon stared back at the elder who seemed confused with everything he just said. He just silently waited for Jin to say something and after a while, he decided that he was way too curious to just let this slide so easily so he agreed.

“Fine, I promise.”

“You can’t even say a word about what I’m going to say. And when you go back to your room, you’ll straightly go to sleep and you’ll immediately forget about whatever the hell I told you tonight.” Namjoon said with his eyes looking straight into Jin’s, making it felt like he was being hypnotized. He would be really amazed if he really followed those instructions after this, really.

“You already casted your spell on me. Now spill it out.” Jin’s serious tone came out as he stared at the younger next to him. Namjoon looked up only to lock eyes with Jin’s kinda-scary ones, making him gulped visibly before he poked Jin’s cheeks and pushed it away lightly.

“Don’t look at me.”

“Geez, it wasn’t as if you’re going to confess to me or anything—“

“I like you.”

“What did you just—“

“You promised me you’ll forget this all when tomorrow comes. Hold on to that.”

“But Namjoon—“

“Let me say that again. I liked you.” He stressed the word ‘liked’ to emphasize what he was going to say, “It’s not that now I don’t like you anymore it’s just that—I found out the truth about you and your feelings. You’re in love with Jungkook, in which you never admitted it before.”

“I know what you had in your head hyung. I’m aware enough about the way your brain works.” Namjoon shook his head with a subtle smile before he continued, “You’re the type to think about others ahead of yourself. You ended up hurting yourself—and also him in the process of you trying to protect him. I just hope that you stop doing that and stop thinking that you know the best when you actually don’t even know your own feelings.”

“So what I’m trying to say is—“ I’m still madly in love with you but you’re already head over heels for Jungkook and I don’t even stand a chance so I guess I’ll be the one left with broken heart, is what Namjoon originally wanted to say but seeing Jin’s worried expression as he stared at him, he just gave up effortlessly.

“I hope he’ll make you happy.”

“Namjoon what makes you say these to me all of the sudden?”

“I’m getting over you, hyung!” His tone suddenly turned into a cheeky one in his attempt to make Jin feel better but he was wrong. He ended up making Jin much more worried about him.

“Hey…”

“I’m doing a good job at it right? I sound cool like a main character in a drama right?” He flashed a proud expression, trying his best to convince Jin that nothing will change even after all these. He already accepted the fact that he was the third person in between Jin and Jungkook and also the fact that he lost his timing from the moment Jungkook first confessed to their oldest hyung.

“I’m really sorry Namjoon I—“ Jin’s voice came out extra slow and Namjoon could already guess his next words so he shushed the elder instead. It’ll hurt more if he heard those coming directly from Jin’s mouth so he decided that he should do his best to protect his already bruised heart.

“It’s late, you need to wake up early for tomorrow’s photoshoot.” He flashed his dimpled smile at Jin as he patted the elder by the head, ignoring their for a while before he coolly turned his back on the frozen Jin.

“See you tomorrow hyung.”

***

“Hyung—“

“Yeah?”

“I swear this is ridiculous.”

“Don’t worry Kookie pie I know you’ll look great!”

“I look like someone’s sick aunt just puked on me.”

Jin chuckled charmingly before he took a step closer towards the door. “You’re exaggerating,” he said as he leaned by the doorframe, waiting for Jungkook to come out from the bathroom.

“No way,” Jungkook mumbled as he shook his head furiously, “I’m not wearing this no uh.”  

He stared at the bathroom mirror in front of him in horror. His own reflection made himself feel so shy and he couldn’t even imagine himself wearing this thing for a photo shoot. Why the heck did he agree with Jin’s suggestion again?

“Ah right he promised a tub of chocolate ice creams—“ he mumbled before he let out a deep sigh.

“Hey, just come out and let me at least see you hmm?” Jin knocked the door a few times and Jungkook immediately freaked out. He stomped his feet childishly before he shouted from inside the bathroom.

“I’d rather come out !!”

“Oh… well if you did that means you, me and the bed—“ Jungkook gasped way too dramatically before Jin could even finish his sentence properly.

“Holy fishcake— Jin hyung did you just ?”

Jin’s jaw dropped slightly before he immediately replied, “I’m implying we go back to sleep you little freak! What were you thinking?”

Jungkook blinked a few times, his own cheeks felt hot as if it was grilled under the scorching sun as he heard his hyung. It took him a while to calm down his own heart and also, his head that was starting to think of dirty stuffs before he finally stepped outside, almost tripping himself on the white gown he was wearing.

“I’m out now, happy?” the younger quirked an eyebrow before he clicked out his tongue as he stared down at the dress that somehow fit his height just fine. He continued talking as he moved himself a bit, he himself fascinated at how the dress twirled along prettily.

Jin scanned the maknae in front of him in a not-so-innocent way from head to toe a few times and he didn’t even realize that he wasn’t breathing. He finally let out the breath he had been unconsciously keeping in before he looked up again and searched for Jungkook’s eyes, only to find them already fixed on him.

“Sheesh I told you this is a bad idea. Forget about the concept for heaven’s sake why can’t there be two guys wearing tuxedos?” Jungkook grumbled, his own ears started to feel like it was burning as his hand started struggling with the zipper along his spine. Right at that moment, Jin finally snapped out of his trance and he leaned in to place a brief kiss on the younger’s lips.

“You’re beautiful,” Jin whispered ever so softly but enough for Jungkook’s ears to caught on them. He squeezed his eyes shut as he felt Jin’s hands making it’s way around his waist, pulling him closer.

“Don’t…”

“What?“

“DON’T SAY THINGS THAT’LL MAKE ME BLUSH THAT’S NOT COOL!!” the younger’s voice came out three octaves higher before he turned his back on his hyung who was laughing so hard at his cuteness. It didn’t help that the zipper was out of his reach and Jin was squealing ‘kawaii’ repeatedly right behind him.

“Aw come on Kookie it is not that bad anyway. Our fans are gonna love it I swear!” the older said before he sat at the edge of the bed, not even intending to help Jungkook with the zipper that was r
