Jungkook found his mouth opening and closing as he failed to form a sentence. Heat was rising to his cheeks and ears as his eyes went wide, "Oh fuck..." he breathed, clutching his hair in his hands as he crouched down to the floor in a flustered state, "What the fuck did I just do!?"

Taehyung couldn't help but let out a chuckle, crouching down right in front of the younger. He waited until Jungkook's gaze was on his own, the both of them staring into each other's eyes. Taehyung smiled warmly, "You kissed someone Kook." 

"But I've never-"

"You've never kissed someone?" Taehyung laughed softly, taking Jungkook's hands into his own as they both rose up to their feet, "I find that very hard to believe."

Raising a brow, Jungkook cocked his head to the side, "How?"

"Because you were darn good at it." He snickered, earning a playful slap on the shoulder from the flustered male in front of him. 

The two of them took a step back from one another as they slipped into a moment of silence, the both of them regaining themselves as they calmed their emotions. Jungkook couldn't help but fold his arms over his bare chest, frowning before his eyes flickered up to meet with Taehyung's once again, "Since when?"

"What-"

"Since when?" Jungkook repeated, twisting his lips, "I didn't think you felt the same way."

Taehyung ruffled his hair sheepishly, "Yeah... well, there's still a lot you don't know about me."

"How do you mean-" Jungkook's sentence was cut short by the sound of the door of the bathroom opening up. Following the creaking noise both of the male's attention shot over to the girl now standing in the doorway, her mousy hair falling messily over her face as she adjusted her pencil skirt. 

Taehyung furrowed his brows, "Bea?"

The girl tucked her hair behind her ears as she gave a small smile, "I see you've recognised me." Bea said, cursing at herself on the inside for not noticing her tattoo was showing during her entire shift. 

Jungkook was next to speak, eyes flickering from the girl to the door and back, "Isn't this the male's bathroom-" 

"Here" She spoke, cutting off Jungkook's sentence as she threw him a t-shirt. Jungkook caught it with ease, pausing before he examined it. The black shirt was an extra large, a small logo on the upper left to let him know that it was a staff work shirt from the cafe. Bea watched as Jungkook threw the shirt over his head, the fabric hanging loosely from his form. She rubbed the back of her neck, "Sorry about the mess." 

Jungkook adjusted the shirt, "It's fine really." 

She then paused, eyes moving between the two males as they stood closely together. She didn't fail to notice the thick tension between the pair, and the way Taehyung was trying to hide his fluster. She smirked, "Was I interrupting something?~" 

"Nope!" Jungkook blurted out, reaching down as he grabbed his hoodie off the bathroom floor. He gave Taehyung a light push against the back, causing the male to stumble forwards as they headed for the door, "We were just leaving."

With his arms folded over his chest, Hoseok tapped one foot impatiently against the tiled floor of the shopping mall. The light shone down from the glass roof overhead, bathing him in the warm glow of the afternoon sun as he grew more and more impatient by the second. It had been quite some time since the group had finished up with their shopping, so where in the world was Taehyung and Jungkook?

As if his prayers had been answered, Hoseok let out a drastic sigh of relief as from afar a familiar pair came into view. From beside him, Daisy couldn't help but frown at Jungkook's attire, her eyes scanning the male up and down as she recognised the cafe shirt that hung from his form. She pursed her lips, brushing her hair over her shoulders as the two males finally approached them, "What's up with the shirt?" Daisy uttered, looking slightly troubled. 

Taehyung and Jungkook exchanged reluctant glances before the younger decided to speak up, "There was an accident and I needed a new shirt..." he chuckled sheepishly, avoiding eye contact with the girl, "We ended up running into Bea and she gave us a hand." 

Daisy let out a breath, "That worked out well then."

"It sure did." Jungkook spoke awkwardly, drawing in a sharp breath as he began to shiver. He had managed to suppress it before, but now that the sun was beginning to set and the temperature began to drop the icy chill of winter was crawling up Jungkook's arms and into his spine as he shook, quickly wrapping his arms around his form. 

Daisy couldn't help but let a small giggle escape her lips, bringing a hand up to cover her mouth as she then suppressed her laughter, "You're freezing!"

Jungkook's expression fell flat, "No shit."

From behind Daisy, Jimin stepped forwards, quickly removing his oversized winter coat before handing it over to the younger, "I've got a jumper on underneath, so I should be fine." He smiled, watching as Jungkook hesitated. Jimin rolled his eyes, shoving the coat into Jungkook's chest before taking a step back, "Just return it later."

Jungkook's eyes moved from Jimin to the coat and back, "Thanks... I guess." He uttered, slipping his tattooed arms through the sleeves of the coat with ease. Unlike the way it would drape on Jimin, it was more fitted on the younger, but it worked at keeping him warm none-the-less. 

Moving in front of the group, Yoongi slightly lifted his hat, making his sharp eyes visible, "It's too late to continue shopping, we should head back." he suggested, earning a nod from Jimin who moved back to his side. 

"I agree." Jimin spoke, casually throwing his arm around Yoongi's shoulders, "We'll head back to the tattoo parlour." He said, and standing beside him Yoongi weirdly enough didn't mind Jimin leaning into him. 

Hoseok smiled, gesturing towards the two girls by his side, "I guess we'll head back off to the base then." 

Daisy grinned, "Fine by me."

Taehyung was last to speak up, 

"I guess we're parting ways again."

{Author Note}

I've always wondered why I haven't given Hoseok a major action roll in any of my books, he's always doing the technical stuff instead of the violent stuff... and then I remember how soft he is and that me putting him in that situation just doesn't sit right with me ahahahahah 

Love you Hobi aha xox
