hobi sighed as he waited for yoongi to finish putting his stuff in his locker. "remind me why i need to do this anyway?"

yoongi closed his locker and put an arm over hobi as they started walking to the cafeteria. "dont make me repeat it again. just go be your clingy self and it'll be fine."

yoongi was frustrated because he wasnt able to do a cherry knot yesterday, so now he asked hoseok to help him out. he doesnt want to lose against taehyung that easily, so he got some advice from namjoon and so the other told him this.

"if none works, im 100% sure jealousy will..."

they both entered the cafeteria and lined up for the food. hobi got in line first so he could get trays for the both of them. he was about to hand yoongi's tray when the older's phone rung. he quickly fished it out of his pocket and answered.

"ne, yeoboseyo?"

yoongi rolled his eyes and covered his mouth slightly with his hand. hobi knew then what to do so he carried both of their trays and moved forward into the line, with yoongi in tow.

meanwhile, tae's sitting with jin and jimin, completely oblivious of the two by the counter. he was munching on his french fries while listening to jin rant about his parcel that hasnt arrived yet. jimin excused himself that he'll get some drink and left the two still chatting.

"cant you call them and ask why? maybe it was sent to the wrong address or got caught up in something..." tae said as he picked up another fry and popped it in his mouth.

jin stuffed his mouth with sliced tomatoes and grunted. "i hope not, or im suing them. i need a new powerbank as soon as possible since our class outing is just around the corner!"

jimin returned with the most sour expression on his face, his brows raised and his mouth in a semi-frown. he sat down and drank his juicebox in one go.

"what's up with you?" jin asked as he saw jimin crumple the juicebox in his hand like it's paper. jimin glanced at his hyung and pouted his lips towards the counter.

"they're being so lovey dovey, it makes me sick. i know that theyre just bestfriends, but look!" jimin said in a way as if he cant believe it.

tae looked up and saw yoongi talking to someone over the phone. just when he thought he's alone, hobi nudges yoongi and raises up two bottles (strawberry and banana milk), as if asking yoongi which of the two does he prefer. yoongi picks the banana milk and gives hobi a smile as a thank you and the other grins back before he picks up both their trays and walks to their usual table.

just when taehyung thought that that was it, hobi sets down the trays on the table and—pulls out the chair for yoongi and even takes out both of their food from the tray.

jin looks at where tae is looking and sees the two. he nudged the boy and frowns. "yah, you okay? dont stare if you don't like what you're seeing."

taehyung nods. he sighs but ends up looking at the two again, but now, it was on a whole new level.

hobi scooped some rice and says "ahh" before feeding yoongi. yoongi laughs at his bestfriend and grins before taking a bite on the barbecue that hoseok's holding out for him. he got some sauce on his cheek and of course, being the neat freak he is, hobi puts down the spoon and reaches over the table to wipe the smudge on yoongi's lips.

"whoa whoa what the actual fuck are they doing?!" jimin exclaimed as he saw what had just happened. he chokes on his drink and asks jin for a tissue.

taehyung tried ignoring the pang of hurt inside him and tried finishing his food. jin ended up finishing it for him because he lost his appetite.

he suddenly stands up and grabs his bag. "i-im gonna go to the bathroom. dont wait for me anymore, i'll see you guys in class." he said and didnt wait for the two to respond and just walked off to his destination.

he barges inside the bathroom, not giving a fuck if someone's in there but fortunately, there's no one. he braces his hands on the sink and looks up to his reflection. he sighs before opening the faucet and scooping up some water to rinse his face.

the door swung open, but taehyung didnt look because he thought it's just someone. turns out, it was yoongi and hoseok. yoongi grabbed his phone from his pocket and handed it to hobi.

"are you sure you're not gonna use the toilet?"

tae immediately tensed up when he recognized the voice. he swallowed nervously, his adam's apple bobbing up. he takes a deep breath and continues to wash.

hobi smiled and nodded. "yeah, i'll just wait for you."

yoongi smiled back before he went inside a cubicle. taehyung took that as a chance to stop and grab some tissue to dry his face. hoseok immediately recognizes him but doesnt say anything.

the younger turns to leave and looks up, only to meet eyes with hoseok. he politely bows as a way of greeting and hobi does the same. tae grabbed his bag from the floor and was about to leave when his phone started vibrating.

"yeoboseyo?"

"yah, where are you? the class is about to start!" jin nagged from the other line, worried that tae would be late for class. tae just rolled his eyes.

"im still in the bathroom, but im finished so im on my way there. save me a seat, okay?" he said before hanging up. with one last look in the mirror, he stepped out of the bathroom, just in time as yoongi went out of the cubicle.

he turned to hobi. "w-was that...?"

hobi nodded. "yeah. let me guess, that's him, right? the one who's been crushing on you since last year?"

yoongi didnt respond and just washed his hands, but his face gave away hid answer, making hobi laugh. "so it is him! i saw how you looked at him earlier, btw."

the older rolled his eyes and waved his wet hands at hoseok's face. "shut up."
