As the members entered the restaurant, discreetly with masks, almost every chair and table was full of people, talking loudly. "Woah, I hope we can find somewhere to sit..." Hoseok chimed in, as the door closed behind Jin.

Taehyung found a waitress and there was one table in the corner that would hold all seven, with space. It was originally for eight, so there was an empty chair next to Namjoon on the right.

"So, what are we going to eat?" Jin asked, overlooking the menu. "Everything." Jungkook giggled, searching for the drink menu. Soon they all ordered something to drink, Jin and Hoseok ordering small glasses of alcohol. "I was wanting some noodles, but I'm not sure which ones." Jungkook thought out loud, reading carefully. "I know what I'm getting, Yoongi hyung...?" Jimin turned to Yoongi, who was beside him. "Hm?" Yoongi asked, zoning back in to the world. "Do you know what you're going to eat?" Jimin asked again.

"Um, not yet." Yoongi opened up the menu, and that's when Hoseok noticed it was the first time he had looked at it. Earlier, it had been in the same spot as when the waitress handed it to them. He ordered water to drink, which wasn't too unusual for him, but Hoseok was catching onto something.

"Tomorrow is dance practice, right?" Jungkook asked Namjoon, who nodded, still searching the menu. Half of it was sea food. The table turned quiet, but the restaurant was still just as busy.

Suddenly, from the kitchen, there was a loud crash of glass plates that caused Jungkook and Yoongi to flinch and cover their ears. "Woah, it's okay, baby." Namjoon rubbed Jungkook's back, and Jungkook slowly opened his eyes. "Yoongi-ya, are you okay?" Jin asked Yoongi, also rubbing his back. Yoongi nodded quickly, his eyes tightly closed. Jimin noticed he was holding his breath. "Hyungie, breathe." He said softly, laying a hand on Yoongi's knee. "I'm fine," Yoongi removed Jin and Jimin's hands, opening his eyes and letting out the breath he was holding.

"What was that about?" Hoseok asked, looking down to the doors of the kitchen. The restaurant had quieted significantly for a few moments, then slowly rose back in volume. "I hope they're okay." Taehyung spoke, taking a few sips on his drink. Jungkook and Yoongi quietly averted back to the menu, clearly embarrassed.

"I'm going to go up there and tell them to be quiet." Hoseok grumbled a few moments later, motioning to the people beside them. It was someone's birthday and while he was happy for them, they were being overly loud and overwhelming two of his boyfriends. They were four teenagers, a few years younger than Jungkook.

"Do we know what we're getting?" The waitress returned, with a smile and a small notebook. Jin went first, then around the table. After they had all ordered, Jimin called the waitress back, making a few of his members perk up.

"Can you make all of that to go?" He asked, and the waitress nodded with a smile before disappearing into the sea of people. "Why?" Taehyung asked. "Because it's too loud here, I...wanna go home." Jimin shrugged, looking down at his lap. Eventually he got his phone out, and saw there were two texts; one from Jungkook, and one from Yoongi. They both thanked him for making the order to go.

Jimin smiled, sent back a smiley face, then put his phone back.

A few moments later, Hoseok noticed that Jungkook was bouncing his leg a bit. He wasn't trying to do so, but Hoseok could tell it was hard not to. Looking over at Yoongi, his cheeks were pink and his eyes darted over the table, unable to stay still either. Jimin looked relaxed, then it clicked to Hoseok: he asked to go for Yoongi and Jungkook.

"I'm gonna go to the bathroom, I'll be back." Yoongi suddenly stood up and left quickly, and as the members exchanged glances, they all knew he was overwhelmed. "I hope they hurry up with that food, so we can leave..." Namjoon looked around the corner to the doors of the kitchen, as if expecting their food to immediately arrive. "We'll leave when the food comes, alright?" Hoseok told Jungkook. "I know, its fine. Just loud." Jungkook smiled over at him, going back to his phone in an attempt to distract himself.

The people next to them eventually left, which helped relax all of them a bit. When Yoongi returned, another group of people took the spot next to them. A couple, and a crying infant.

Luckily the mother was able to calm them down soon, so Yoongi crossed his arms and put his head down on the table. "Yoongi-ya..." Jin nudged him, wondering why Yoongi was acting so carelessly. It was disrespectful, especially as an adult. Younger kids under ten weren't as bad, but it was an unspoken rule not to do so in a busy restaurant.

"What?" Yoongi asked, turning to Jin. "Bring your head up, please." Jin told him, and Yoongi hesitated before following his request. "I'd expect it from Kookie in little space, but-" "Hyung, I'm seriously going to cry if I don't leave soon. Look, I'm sorry that I'm a pain in the ass, but this- this isn't doing it for me." Yoongi accidentally interrupted, and the infant started crying right as he finished. "I'm sorry, but it's not fair to leave just because they're busy." Jin told him, trying not to be mean. Yoongi pushed his hair back, then suddenly stood up. "Then you stay, because I can't." Yoongi pushed his chair in before turning and leaving towards the exit. "Hyung..." Hoseok watched him walk out, and saw him wipe tears from his eyes as soon as he was outside. He then disappeared around the corner, most likely on his way to the van.

"Aish...I can't make them bring it out faster, what else am I supposed to do?" Jin asked frustrated, looking over at Namjoon. "Just give him his space. He'll come back eventually." Namjoon told him, trying to relax his members. "I guess..." Jin shrugged his shoulders, looking down the table to Jungkook. He appeared better than a few minutes ago, now having his phone to distract himself.

About ten minutes later, the waitress and another waiter arrived with their food. Everything was already boxed and bagged, and the waiter handed Jimin a bag of food, giving him a wide smile. They searched through the bags to make sure everything was there. "Do any of you guys have the receipt?" Namjoon asked, looking up from his bag. Jimin found a slip of paper stuck underneath of his food. "I think I do," Jimin took the box out and removed the paper.

"Is that it?" Taehyung asked, peeking over Jimin's shoulder. "N-no, it's..." Jimin flipped the paper the other way, holding it sideways. "It's a phone number." He looked up, confused. "Was the waitress hitting on you?" Hoseok laughed a little, turning back. "No, it was the guy. The waitress had a ring on her left hand." Jimin looked back down at the number, then up again.

"Yeah, because that's not creepy at all. Let's find the receipt and get out of here." Jin told them, and the receipt was in Namjoon's food. As they exited the restaurant, they found Yoongi sitting by himself at a table outside. "I'll talk to him." Taehyung handed Jimin his bags and Jimin got a good grip. The others went to the van, situating food and seats.

"Hyung, we've got the food, we're ready to go." Taehyung told Yoongi, standing to the side of him, not too close. "Okay..." Yoongi took a deep breath and stood up, then followed Taehyung to the van.

Yoongi sat in the passenger and Jin drove, not wanting any sympathy. He had only had a little alcohol, so he was clear to drive. The restaurant didn't have the best quality, so Jin didn't even finish a glass.

When they arrived back at the dorm, it was starting to get dark. "Do you guys want to watch a movie with dinner?" Jimin asked, his hands full of food in brown bags. They all agreed, and carried their food inside. While Namjoon, Hoseok and Jimin tore down the fort and made room again, Yoongi disappread and Jungkook went to change into softer clothes. By the time Jin was picking a movie, Jungkook was back and laying in the corner of the couch with Jimin in his lap.

"I'll go get Yoongi hyung." Namjoon said after placing a folded blanket next to Jungkook. Jimin took it and unfolded it, then covered the two up. "He just folded that!" Hoseok laughed, while Namjoon didn't see it because he had already left.

He saw the bathroom light was on, so he knocked on the door. "Yoongi hyung? Are you okay? It's been a bit." Namjoon asked, looking down at the door. There was a dark spot in the middle, like Yoongi was standing right on the other side. There was no response.

"Yoongi hyung-" "Huh, what?" Yoongi asked suddenly. "I was wondering if you're alright, you've been in there since we got back, and we're ready to eat." Namjoon repeated, growing concerned. "I'll be out in a minute." Yoongi told him from the other side, then the shadow under the door disappeared, and the sink started running water.

Namjoon wasn't sure what to think, but he left Yoongi to his business and joined Hoseok on the floor, their backs against the couch. A moment later, Yoongi returned from the bathroom and sat on the opposite end of the couch, from Jungkook and Jimin. "Are you okay?" Jimin asked, pouting a little at Yoongi. "Yeah, I'm fine." Yoongi nodded to him, and rested his arm on the couch edge. They began eating, focused on the movie. After most of them were done eating, Yoongi and Jin started to clean up, seeing everyone wanting a nap now.

The movie was over and Jungkook and Jimin fell asleep in each other's arms. Hoseok and Yoongi went back to their room to sleep, and Jin curled up on the opposite side of the couch, of Jungkook and Jimin. Taehyung went back to his room.

"Yoongi hyung~ Can I come over and sleep with you?" Hoseok asked from across the room. Yoongi groaned stifly as a response, which was a yes in his language. Hoseok quietly celebrated and rushed to spoon Yoongi, both of them facing the wall on their sides. "Thank you~ I love you." Hoseok wrapped his arm around Yoongi's chest and squeezed him for a second, then Yoongi grunted after he let go. "No squeezing, it hurts." Yoongi grumbled, shifting his lower half so Hoseok wasn't so pressed against him. "Sorry." Hoseok smiled and laid his head down, not moving closer to respect Yoongi's terms and conditions, stated by the older.

Some time later, Hoseok's hand found itself under Yoongi's shirt on his side, just barely above his pants. Hoseok was almost to sleep and Yoongi the same, then Hoseok moved his hand back to Yoongi's stomach, adoring his soft skin and smooth features. Yoongi tensed and jerked awake, grunting while Hoseok's heart leaped in his chest. His mouth opened to speak but no words could come out. His hand froze on the many scars on Yoongi's stomach, unable to move a thing.

"Don't touch my stomach." Yoongi grabbed Hoseok's hand and removed it from under his shirt, and he laid it down back on his waist. "H-hyung, d-did you do this today?" Hoseok finally spat out words. "It doesn't matter, forget it. Just go to sleep." Yoongi told him, silencing him again. Hoseok wondered if he was still thinking clearly, Yoongi couldn't have possibly cut his stomach, right? That was too dangerous, and way too scary to think about. He said he was doing better, so why would he hurt himself in such a sensitive place?

"Yoongi hyung, you-" "Go to sleep, Hoseok." Yoongi cut him off again, his tone normal. "But-" "Hoseok, you're going to be sleeping alone in your own bed here soon. Go to sleep." The elder repeated, making Hoseok pout. He laid his head down, staring blankly at Yoongi's back, and messy hair.

Hoseok didn't want to sleep alone, but he couldn't let this go without more of a conversation. He wanted to have it now, but Yoongi did not. Hoseok had to be patient with him, and wait until he was ready. Maybe tomorrow he would be alright...maybe he would be okay with talking about it then.
