In good moods, a writer may paint words that are fine wine and soft music; words that contain more healing medicine than all the drugs created by man. They are clear water over rocks, a shelter in any storm. They are food for the soul of every flower of the light.

You beamed looking up at the clear sky. There were no gloomy clouds today, the temperature moderate. Cool breeze whizzed past once in a while but not much to make one shiver. You felt at ease. The comfort and warmth from the hug you recieved a while back was essential.

The moment was disrupted by the booming noise coming out of Jungkook's phone. It was a call from his manager of the Formula 1 department. Unwillingly, you both had to break the heartwarming hug in order for him to receive the call.

You felt your heart race as usual and cheeks tint pink remembering the way you had nuzzled into him. You buried your face in your hands, the embarrassment settling in. You really needed to get a hold of yourself, you thought.

Just then, you felt your phone vibrate. Sighing, you withdrew your phone from the back pocket of your jeans and unlocked it to witness a text from Taehyung.

-'Taelien<3: Rara, where you at? I've come along with everyone else to meet hyung.

You: on my way. come near his room.

Taelien<3: okay.'-

Locking your phone, you jogged to Yoongi's room and immediately spotted six familiar heads gossiping in a circle. "Guys." You breathed as you neared them. All of them crooked their heads to gaze your way before walking towards you and engulfing you in quick hugs.

Azalea was the last one as she pulled back and held your hands. "Hey, how you doing?" She pressed your hands, a fond look etched onto her features. You nodded your head, a soft smile on your lips as you gazed at everyone. "I feel better now. Yoongs is awake, let's meet him?" They all nodded their heads before you proceeded to go in first.

Twisting open the door, you were greeted with your brother comfortably sitting on the bed reading a book. Upon hearing the rustling, he looked up from his spot and met your eyes. "Hey. What's up?" He removed the glasses that were perched atop his nose and placed them on his lap along with the book. You gave him a warm smile before moving aside to let your friends in.

All the five dudes tackled him in a bone crushing hug while Azalea quietly stood beside you. You both looked towards them and giggled at Jin and Hoseok's slightly overdramatic cries while your brother struggled to get them off. After a moment, Namjoon pried his crying boyfriend off while Jimin and Taehyung held Hoseok.

"I think I was gonna fucking die." Yoongi exasperated mockingly.

"How are you feeling now, bud?" Namjoon asked after Jin and Hoseok had calmed down. Taehyung and Jimin sat down on the floor since all the seats in the room were occupied.

"I feel somewhat good now. Just can't move my legs around." He pointed towards the obvious plaster wrapped around his legs. There was a moment of silence before Hoseok spoke. "Yoongi, I'm-I'm sorry for leaving you alone. I-If only I-"

"Hobi, no. You haven't done anything wrong. I'm not a kid who needs someone to protect me. No one saw this coming. So you better stop blaming yourselves." Yoongi stated sternly, looking at both Hoseok and the couple since he was with them before the incident took place.
The said three nodded.

Yoongi's gaze wandered in the room to look at everyone before it landed on Azalea staring at him. She quickly looked away and cleared her throat. You noticed the exchange and bit back a smile. Just when you were going to open your mouth, the door to the room opened and entered Jungkook.

He stopped in his tracks taking in the crowd. "Oh, hi." He uttered walking in and closing the door behind him. "Yo, where have you been?" Taehyung questioned him. The latter waved his phone in the air before leaning against the door and looking at Yoongi. "You're out of the tournament. They wished you a rapid recovery and are hoping you will be able to participate next year."

Yoongi sighed before nodding. Jimin's brows furrowed as he spoke. "What tournament?" Jungkook looked at him and Taehyung. "The Formula 1 tournament," He then looked at the other three boys. "The races for the final round have begun but unfortunately, hyung cannot participate due to his condition." You bit your lip looking at your brother's upset face.

Walking towards him, you placed a hand on his shoulder. "Hey, it's alright. You can participate next year. Don't be sad, hm." He nodded while biting his lip.

"Wait, you knew?" Namjoon questioned worridly gazing at Yoongi and Jungkook.

"Yeah. I said her." Yoongi stated and the rest sighed in relief. You saw Azalea sighing too making you furrow your brows. "You knew too?" You narrowed your eyes as she tensed.

"I requested her not to tell you." You whipped your head towards your brother, feeling a sense of falsity consume you. He saw your expression and instantly clasped your hand. "No it's not what you think. She saw me during the match you both attended. I was um talking to my manager about the next race and she heard it." He gulped.

You looked at them surprised. "Oh, funny. That's how I found out about Kook being a racer too." The aforementioned smiled a little remembering the events of that day. He was honestly terrified for his secret to come out and ruin his career. But the deal made to refrain that from happening was maybe not a bad thing afterall, he thought.

"You knew about it too?" Azalea questioned you.

"I only knew about Jungkook. Not Yoongs." She nodded at that.

Jin clapped his hands grabbing everyone's attention. "Well now that all the secrets are revealed and our buddy here is awake, let's party!" Yoongi made a face at him while you all chuckled.

Everyone felt the tension in the room decreasing. Yoongi and Jungkook felt a weight being lifted off of their shoulders. They smiled when their eyes met; a silent message of acknowledgement being passed.

"Okay then, let's head out to eat something. I'm really hungry!" Taehyung whined and everyone nodded to that. Jimin ruffled his hair while they walked out, the couple and Hoseok following behind. You turned towards your brother. "Do you need me to get you anything?"

He shook his head smiling gently. "No. You go enjoy and stop worrying hm?" You nodded and smiled back as you stood up. Putting a hand on your best friend's shoulder, you both started walking towards Jungkook who was waiting for you. But before you could leave, your brother's voice boomed from behind. "Wait!"

You three instantly turned towards him. "Yes?" You questioned.

"I just uh want to talk to Azalea um privately..." He trailed off and you noticed a subtle blush forming on his cheeks. You raised a brow and looked at your best friend who looked equally baffled. "Okay, cool." You shrugged and pushed her towards his bed before turning around to leave. You narrowed your eyes at Jungkook who had his lips pursed. He looked at your glare and immediately turned his head to walk out. You glanced one last time at the two behind before leaving as well.

After making sure everyone indeed left, Yoongi turned towards Azalea who stood there awkwardly. "Hey."

"Hey um, are you alright?" She bit her lip in nervousness, the atmosphere in the room morphing yet again into a tense one.

"Yes. Could be better though." She nodded. The room was stilled with quietness for a minute before Azalea spoke. "So uh what did you want to talk about?"

"Oh yeah. Do you mind sitting here?" He patted the seat on his bed where you previously resided in. Azalea gingerly walked towards him before carefully sitting down.

"Okay so I know this gonna sound stupid but-" He was instanly cut off my Azalea's voice.

"Hey um no it's fine. Y-You can tell me anything. I'm sure i-it won't be stupid." She mumbled, mindlessly fiddling with her fingers.
"Oh um thanks." He shyly scratched the back oh his neck before clearing his throat, a sense of determination overtaking his features.

"So basically, last night I had talked with Hoseok about this and he said he-he doesn't mind it." He gulped.

"Doesn't mind what?" Azalea tilted her head in confusion and he felt the sudden urge to throw himself out of the window.

"The idea about us." Yoongi doesn't know how and where he got the confidence from but he mentally thanked the heavens he didn't stutter this time. Azalea's eyes visibly widened as she opened and closed her mouth like a fish. "U-Us wh-what?"

He sighed, licking his lips as he whispered a soft 'fuck it' and gently grabbed her hands, looking at her straight in the eyes. " I like you, Lea."

Silence.

There was an ear splitting silence as his confession lingered in the air. Yoongi grimaced, suddenly rethinking his decisions and concluding that this was undeniably a bad idea; a very horrible idea. While Azalea sat there frozen as if someone had switched off her operating buttons but the bright scarlet on her cheeks spoke otherwise.

Yoongi couldn't bare the quietness anymore. "Gosh I'm so sorry, I just wanted to get this out of my chest. I-It's okay if you don't like me back. It's completely fine-"

"I like you too." Now it was Yoongi's turn to turn into a statue as his brain slowly processed  the words. Was Azalea really returning his feelings back? He felt like he was dreaming.

"W-What?" He gaped at her.

Azalea shyly tucked her hair behind her ear before briefly peeking up at him through her lashes. "I said I l-like you t-too." She mumbled suddenly finding the bedsheets more interesting to look at.

"Are you serious?" She nodded, a shy smile adorning her lips.

Yoongi couldn't help but break out in that huge infamous gummy smile of his as her words finally sinked into his brain and was assured that this in fact wasn't a dream.

"Um since when did you l-like me?" He asked.

Azalea squinted her eyes as she racked through her brain to remember the certain information. "I think for a year or two now?" She looked at him. "What about you?"

"Since the first time I laid my eyes on you." Yoongi was sure that if you were present there you would've gagged hearing this and later tease him about it. He was glad you weren't nearby or else he wouldn't hear the end of it until the day he died.

"Oh." Azalea felt like squealing from the giddiness she felt. He liked her from the first time they met which was almost four years ago. She felt overwhelmed but ecstatic at the same time. And the way Yoongi was so fondly looking at her wasn't helping at all.

"So um what now? She trailed off, not knowing what to say next.

Yoongi cleared his throat."S-Sorry for the sudden confession though. I know this was not the right time nor place to confess but I wanted to get it off my chest. I had planned to tell you about my feelings today anyway but then this happened." He gestured towards his legs, huffing after.

Azalea squeezed his hand, which was surprisingly still in his hold, in assurance. "No, it's fine. You don't have to worry about it. I'm glad you did it because keeping this inside my chest was kinda hard for me too. So thankyou for saying me as well as l-liking me back." She timidly mumbled the last sentence.

"Thankyou to you too then." They both smiled at each other, the tension from earlier dissipating and a more comfortable environment surrounding them.

"Uh um I think I should get going then, everyone else must be waiting for me." She pointed her finger towards the door.

Yoongi nodded. "Oh yes, I'm sure you must be hungry." Azalea stood up, cutely waving at him before walking out and closing the door.

The next thing heard were cute little squealing noises; one behind the closed door and one in the lobby outside.
