Hoseok fixed his sleeve one more time nervously. His only sleeve while his left hand was merely covered with a long black glove. It already was the day of the dance. The two days flew by a lot faster than he had hoped and nothing but nervousness filled his tummy. He presented himself in the mirror, his eyes looking at his outfit. The end of his only sleeve was white and puffy with a feather stitching hugging the sleeve. He then fixed his v neck low collar that showed a lot more than what prince usually wears.

"Hoseok! Does it fit?" He heard Seonghwa yell from behind the curtain. Hoseok perked his head a little while giving a nervous chuckle. Pink was peppering his cheeks before speaking.

"Yup. Like a glove."

"Oh! Let us see! I wanna see!" Jungkook whined. He heard Seokjin sigh, he could almost imagine him shaking his head which caused him to smile.

"Let him take his time, the dance doesn't start for another five hours Jungkook. You'll have plenty of time to hang out with him before that." Seokjin scolded.

"But I want to see it! Seonghwa didn't even tell us what is it nor Hoseok showed us until today! The excitement is killing me!"

"I agree with Jungkook, I want to see it too." He heard Jimin said casually.

"Ugh not you too Jimin." Yoongi's voice caught Hoseok's attention. He blinked at himself while staring at the mirror.

'Yoongi's here?'

"Hey but Yoongi Hyung yours looks cool. I've never actually ever seen you wear white." Jungkook said while clapping his hands in excitement.

"None of us ever wear white Jungkook." Yoongi retorted while Hoseok could only imagine him rolling his eyes.

"Has anyone seen Taehyung? Or Namjoon? They are both late and I want to see their outfits as well." Jimin asked.

Hoseok took one more look at himself through the mirror. He nodded to himself and walked out of the curtain. It was at that moment precisely, Namjoon had walked in. They had locked eyes and that alone made Hoseok freeze. The room grew quiet because just like everyone knew about Hoseok's infatuation with Y/n, everyone knew about Namjoon's as well, and the burning rivalry he had with the prince. They all aware of both of their feelings.

Hoseok snapped out whatever daze he was in and greeted Namjoon with a smile. Despite knowing how much Namjoon hated him, he was still a prince after all and being polite was always his strong suit. Even if that person tried to kill him for a woman.

"Morning Namjoon. Ah Seonghwa can I have my shoes please?" Hoseok's polite greeting broke the silence but not the tension. The tension was still in the air like some poison gnawing at their skin. Namjoon's glare was glued onto Hoseok's head even as he turn his head to face the designer. Seonghwa blinked but quickly nodded. The tension was even getting the designer who just simply worked on the clothes and nothing more.

"Right of course. Here." He handed him his boots.

"Thank you. Oh and the harness?"

"Right. Here. You might need help with it, it's a bit difficult. Jungkook would you please help him?" Seonghwa urged with an awkward smile. He could feel Namjoon's stare which caused him to grow uneasy. Even Yoongi had an uneasy look. Jungkook quietly walked over to Hoseok while he felt the stares of everyone. Hoseok flashed Jungkook to ease his nerves. Jungkook gave his own bunny grin back at him. He helped him tighten the harness while Hoseok stood still.

"Seonghwa is my outfit ready?" Namjoon's deep voice cause Seonghwa to flinch slightly.

"Yeah. It's in the second dressing room. Where's Taehyung?"

"Busy helping Y/n finish last minute things." Namjoon said as his eyes flicker to Hoseok. He knew how much affect just her name had on Hoseok despite him trying to play it cool at the moment. The prince flinch slightly while Jungkook rose his head to glare at Namjoon.

"Also Jungkook I need to talk you after your done." Namjoon said, walking over to the dressing room. Jungkook thinned his lips before he finishing buckling the last strap and stepping back to lay down any wrinkles on his shirt. Namjoon had bumped his shoulder against Hoseok, causing him to stumble backwards.

"Hey! Watch where your going!" Jungkook barked. Namjoon whirled his head to face Jungkook with narrowed eyes.

"It's Hyung, Jungkook, don't be rude."

"Your being rude! Your being a bi-"

"Okay! Calm down! Look it's fine, don't worry about it Jungkook." Hoseok quickly calmed the two while throwing Jungkook a half smile.

"It's alright. Don't sweat it. Come on, let's just finish getting dress so I can go finish preparing the dance and hang out with you for a bit." Hoseok urged, trying to soothe out whatever tensions in the air but it felt like his words couldn't get through Namjoon. Namjoon scoffed at his words.

"Yeah I wonder how that would turn out. Just because we are letting you dress like us and dance with us doesn't mean you can order us around." Namjoon said with a scoff. Hoseok looked over towards the tall male with furrowed eyebrows.

"I'm aware. I'm not ordering anyone around." Hoseok explained with a slight frown.

"Then don't order Jungkook like he's your maid."

"I'm not ordering Jungkook around like some maid. He's my friend, I would never do that." Hoseok quickly defended himself.

"Then why the hell is he following you around like some puppy? Can't you do stuff by yourself? Why do you need others to do your work?" Namjoon harshly withdrawn the curtain while glaring at the prince.

"What are you talking about? I don't order anyone around here. Nor do I let people do stuff for me. I've learned to do things my own way." Hoseok explained not exactly liking where this was heading. Namjoon chuckled darkly with an eye roll.

"Oh you do stuff your way alright, like forcing yourself upon Y/n, right?"

Hoseok felt his eyes widen then he narrowed his dark eyes at Namjoon with a deep frown.

"I don't force myself upon her. I respect her wishes unlike some people." Hoseok snared, venom dropping from his lips a lot faster than he would like. His polite composure had completely crumbled down within seconds. Namjoon walked over towards him and pulled on the collar of his shirt. Everyone tensed, watching with wide eyes.

"What?"

"Well if we're taking about who's forcing who, I think you should know when to quit. Accept your defeat and don't try to force yourself upon a woman who didn't even want you in the first place. Accept the fact she doesn't and won't ever like you like that. Respect the fact she doesn't kill people or want that heavy responsibility on her hands. So maybe you should stop forcing yourself on a taken woman." Hoseok harshly shoved him back with a burning glare. It was the first time Hoseok had ever responded or even talked to Namjoon in such a way. Usually fear or insecurities would eat him alive from saying anything towards the tall male. But today something had snapped at such an accusation that Namjoon made about him. It made his blood boil and clench his fingers to a fist. The urge to punch him square in the face was real but he resisted.

"So you think your all that because you got her, huh? I hope you know you were never her first choice." Namjoon snared, shoving him back. Jungkook immediately stood in the middle when he saw Hoseok step forwards with a dark grin. An evil glint shined in his dark eyes.

"Sure but I'll be her last."

"You son of a-"

Namjoon lunged forward, ignoring Jungkook and pouncing on Hoseok. Jungkook let out a scream catching everyone's attention. Namjoon had started punching Hoseok's face while Hoseok squirmed and tried to block his attacks with his arms. His breath was heavy from the air being knocked out of his chest. The others ran in panic the moment Namjoon pounced on Hoseok like an animal.

"Namjoon! Let go!" Yoongi yelled, trying to push the male off the prince. Seokjin grabbed Namjoon's waist and tried jerking him back but Namjoon was too strong and only shoved the two back before continuing. When the punches weren't going through like he hoped, Namjoon used his big hands to wrap around Hoseok's throat. Hoseok had now panicked. His face became pale while he suddenly got deja vu.

A memory flashed between his eyes. Namjoon's face flickered between the king's and his. Hoseok's breathing intensified quickly. He had blood coming from the corner of his lips with a purple busted lip. His body couldn't move, it felt struck with fear. For the first time being here, Hoseok struck with fear by Namjoon. He didn't move even as Namjoon's hands gripped tighter around his neck. Instead his eyes held pure fear and his body felt limp.

"F*cking Namjoon! OFF HIM!" Jungkook screamed while tugging his arms. Jimin was tugging the other but nothing prevailed. Namjoon didn't even move as they tugged him. Seokjin glanced at Hoseok worriedly, noticing the dim look in his eyes.

"Hoseok! He's losing conscious!" Seokjin yelled. Yoongi had stand up with ragged breathes, he didn't know what to do. Namjoon was physically the strongest and could beat any of them. He was going to kill Hoseok.

"Seonghwa! Go get Y/n! Now!" Yoongi yelled. Seonghwa nodded and scrambled out of the tent.

"Hoseok! Move! Squirm! Punch him! Anything! Why isn't he moving!?" Jungkook yelled, panting heavily as Namjoon didn't even move an inch from all that pulling and tugging. Namjoon was blinded by pure anger and no words was going through his ears, nothing but the prince who was frozen in fear was his only vision.

"I don't know! I think he's in shock or something! Namjoon get off him!" Seokjin yelled, trying to pull him from his waist.

"Nothings working Hyung!" Jimin yelled with worry.

"Pull his hair then!" Yoongi shouted as he was trying to grab a pipe that held the tent to hit Namjoon with. Jimin's eyes widen with his lips parting in shock.

"But that hurts!"

"Who the f*ck cares?! He's gonna kill Hoseok!" Yoongi growled out. Jimin glanced at Namjoon then flickered his gaze to Hoseok who was slowly growing more limp as the seconds went by. Jimin bit his lip nervously.

"Sorry Hyung." Jimin apologized before placing his hand on his dirty blonde locks. He then tugged his hair harshly causing Namjoon to yelp and throw his head back. His eyes narrowed and halted whatever he was doing to stare at the silver male.

"Park Jimin!"

"Let Hoseok go then!"

"No! Park Jimin let go of my hair!"

"No!! Get off him now!"

"What the f*ck is going on!?"

Y/n's loud scream made everyone freeze. They turned to face her with wide eyes besides Namjoon who only glared at her. Y/n stomped towards him as Jimin quickly let go of Namjoon's hair and stepped back. Her face had said it all. She was more than pissed and her deep burning glare had said it all. No one wanted to intervene whatever she had plans for Namjoon, otherwise they too would be caught in her wrath. She placed her hand on Namjoon's chest and harshly shoved him back. He stumbled off the prince and fell on his butt. She did what everyone was struggling to do for the pass couple of minutes and with just a swift of her hand. Perhaps because Namjoon would never go against her word nor lay a hand on her.

"Hold him down." Y/n growled out. Without any further questions or even giving Namjoon a chance to think, Jungkook and Yoongi had held Namjoon down. Namjoon groaned a bit from the pain but his eyes never left Y/n who had walked over to Hoseok. He had a red mark around his throat, his hair messy and ruffled. His skin pale while his pupils shook, only looking at the ceiling. A couple of tears escaped his eyes while his hand had rubbed the sore spot on his throat. Y/n kneeled down with a crease of her eyebrows.

"Hoseok? You alright?" Y/n had spoken softly, helping him sit up. Hoseok had quickly shut his eyes while his breathing was shallow. Y/n rubbed his back gently. Hoseok leaned his forehead against the crook of her neck while rubbing his sore neck. He shuddered a bit which Y/n wanted to question but decided against it. She didn't mind his head laying near her neck and continued to rub his back.

"Seokjin? Can you come here?"

"R-right." Seokjin hastily walked over to Hoseok. He examined his neck for a bit before lightly patting his back.

"He's alright. If anything, he should be gasping for air, but other than a couple of bruises; he's alright." Seokjin explained. Y/n breathed out in relief, letting her chin rest against his head.

"However, I think he's in some form of shock. His pupils are shaking and his breathing has increased. I don't think that's from fear." Seokjin whispered, his eyes glancing at the prince. Y/n thinned her lips with a short nod.

"I figured. Okay, let him rest for a bit until his breathing becomes steady. Make sure he's completely okay before letting him do any activities. After that, let's continued to get the dance ready and keep in eye on him." Y/n spoke gently moving his head away from her neck. He panicked slightly, gripping his hold on her.

"It's okay. You just need to rest for a little. I have stuff to deal with." Y/n flashed him a half smile before leaning near his ear with a whisper.

"Don't worry love, everything's fine. Relax." She pulled back and stood up. Hoseok stared at her, while Seokjin and Jimin helped him stand up. His legs felt like jelly and his brain was still hazy from the lack of air. They had slowly helped him out of the tent. Hoseok couldn't get his eyes off her but the moment he had left the tent, Y/n harden her stare and whirled her head to face Namjoon. Namjoon had remained quiet and didn't utter a sound. His head was low while the two males held him down. His bangs shadowed his eyes. He could feel her burning stare but choose to ignore it and keep looking at the ground.

"Kim Namjoon. I have warned not once, not twice, but three times about this conflict you have with Hoseok. You have threatened, injured and nearly killed Hoseok three times now. I have given you less severe punishments for such treacheries. You have disrespected me and mocked me by disobeying my orders and going behind my back to try to kill him. It seems none of the punishments are working for you to redeem yourself." Y/n had placed her hands behind her back while looking down at him. Her voice was authoritative and cold. It was a tone Y/n had rarely ever used on her men, even more so on Namjoon. Yoongi and Jungkook shuddered at her cold tone. She was speaking to him like a superior which is something she does not enjoy. She wants to treat everyone like equals in her camp, but Namjoon pushed the line too far.

"So henceforth, you are officially banned from my merrymen. You are no longer my second in command nor my right hand."

"What?! But-!"

"Do not speak unless asked too!" Y/n barked. Namjoon flinched, gritting through his teeth as he glared at the ground once more. Y/n stood straight with a cold expression. But deep down, she was hurting and didn't want to be this kind of person.

"It's clear to me this punishment would be consider mercy. As you know, betraying in the camp means banishment. That means you and your family would be left in the outskirts of the mountains. " Y/n walked closer to him with narrowed eyes. Namjoon stiffen and glanced up at her with slight wide eyes. It look like he wanted to speak but Y/n had beaten him to it.

"But I shall spare your mother and brother for they have nothing to do with your actions. You, on the other hand can not be unpunished. You've treated me like an object to be won over Namjoon, you didn't even treated me like a human being the moment Hoseok step forth on this camp." Y/n's voice wavered at the end of her sentence before she quickly snapped out of it. Namjoon stared at the floor once more in shame. His heart felt heavy with guilt.

"You are forbidden to enter any contests or parties as long as the prince is here. Even then, I will be the judge on rather you can join back or not. That is until you have proven to me and that I am not an object and am my own person with my own personal feelings." Y/n stepped back and raise her hand for Yoongi and Jungkook to release Namjoon. Namjoon was kneeling on the ground his head still hang with shame. Y/n turned her heel and waved her hand for the two males to follow. She suddenly stopped before taking another step forward.

"Also, for clarity, the prince is my lover. Hurting him, is like hurting me. As of right now, we are in the same status." Y/n then continued to walk away while Namjoon's eyes flickered to her back. Yoongi and Jungkook following close behind her, not daring to say a word for she has spoken. No words would change her decision.

⚔️⚔️⚔️⚔️

Two hours had passed since the accident that occurred earlier. Hoseok was put into the medical tent to rest but by 30 minutes, he had somehow convinced Seokjin that he was alright with just minor bruises. So Hoseok had head back to the tent where Seonghwa was fixing whatever mess Namjoon caused earlier. Hoseok helped him while apologizing repeatedly to the designer. Seonghwa merely waved it off and said it was mostly Namjoon's fault for instigating it. After he had finally finish getting dress, he had to go get his hair done but decided last minute he'll do that later.

His heart had desperately wanted to search for Y/n on multiple occasions but told himself no. She was most likely trying to get last things ready while trying to keep quiet about what happened earlier. At least, that's what Jungkook was telling him as they walked side to side of each other. Jungkook was strangely quiet and only spoke shortly. It was off seeing Jungkook so down when he's usually so bright and playful. But Hoseok could only assume his dampened mood was from Namjoon.

"You know Jungkook, that corset looks really nice on you." Hoseok has nudged his arm with his elbow and giving off a grin. Jungkook glanced at him, his eyes more focused on the purple bruises that covered Hoseok's neck. That alone made the heavy feeling return. Jungkook's outfit was all white, with white sleeveless shirt and white trousers. His shoes and corset were the only things that were black. He had gloves that touched his elbow. His bangs were parted and pushed to the right, and waved on the tips. He had a matching feather necklace that Hoseok also wore. He had black feathers on the buttons that danced to his neck. His hands were in his pockets as he walked.

"Yeah." Was all Jungkook said. Hoseok felt his grin flatter. No, he shouldn't give up. Jungkook was always around whenever Hoseok was down. It's only fair he does the same for him.

"Yeah but I think Jimin has a smaller waist than you." Hoseok replaced his flattered grin into a teasing smile. That seem to do the trick quick, as Jungkook gaped at his proclamation.

"I mean you would be first if it wasn't the fact that Seonghwa gave him a corset." Hoseok casually shrugged.

"What are you talking about Hyung!? I have the smallest waist! Look!" Jungkook had stopped walking and pointed to his waist. Hoseok threw his head back in laughter while Jungkook rambled on about having the smallest waist.

"The only thing Park Jimin has that's smaller than mine are his hands!! He has literal baby hands!" Jungkook shouted, showing his hands making Hoseok laugh even harder. He laughed so hard that his knees buckled and nearly tripped him over if it wasn't for the fact he was holding onto Jungkook's arm. His eyes nearly disappeared from how much he was smiling and laughing. Jungkook looked over to Hoseok, blinking at how hard he was laughing. Jungkook couldn't help but chuckle, smiling so wide his natural bunny grin appeared.

Hoseok was gasping for air at this point before standing straight with a long sigh afterwards. He chuckled a little more before clearing his throat.

"Sorry just I could actually imagine Jimin's small baby hands like you put." Hoseok chuckled, wiping a fake tear away from his eye.

"And the fact out of all the things I talked about today, that alone seem to get such a heavy reaction from you." Hoseok smiled.

"Yeah. Well thanks Hyung that actually made me feel a lot better." Jungkook said with a smile of his own.

"I understand if you don't want to talk about whatever happen with Mister 'I'm trying to kill you', but at least know I'm here okay? Just like your there for me, I'm here for you." Hoseok had patted his shoulder before continuing to walk. Jungkook started to walk by him with thin lips.

"Actually there is something I would like to ask you."

Hosoek couldn't help but chuckle feeling a wave of deja vu washed over him. He didn't stop his big smile and hummed in response. Jungkook ran his fingers through his nicely combed hair. He was starting to fidget with his feather necklace.

"So I don't know if this is true or not, not saying I don't believe Y/n. She could tell me watermelons are fruits and I'll believe her." Jungkook cleared his throat.

"Watermelons are fruits." Hoseok chuckled. Jungkook blinked before nodding his head rapidly.

"Right okay but you know what I'm talking about. Y/n could tell me anything! And I'll believe her! She could tell me she hates meat o-or that pigs fly! And I'll believe her! Because I owe her my life! S-so when she tells me she has a lover—" Jungkook glanced at Hoseok who flinched slightly at his words. Jungkook cleared his throat once again.

"—I believe her. Of course I want to hear it from both sides. You know since it seems like her lover is my best friend."  Jungkook coughed out with a glance at Hoseok. Hoseok's slowly grew more red the longer he felt Jungkook's stare on him.

"Best friend? Your my best friend?" Hoseok laughed nervously. Jungkook threw him a blank look.

"Don't change the subject Hyung."

Hoseok laughed nervously, scratching behind his neck with a hard swallow.

"Yes."

"You are!?! You didn't tell me!! Come on bro! You need to at least credit me! I helped you out and you didn't even tell me!" Jungkook yelled with a whine afterwards. Hoseok laughed nervously with rosy cheeks.

"My bad? Look she wanted to keep it quiet until she was ready to say something about it to the others." Hoseok quickly said.

"And of course Prince Charming would keep his lips closed all because she kissed him." Jungkook teased. Hoseok inhaled sharply before covering his face with his palms.

"Yes." He squeaked out.

"I was joking, you seriously kissed her?! And I wasn't there!?" Junglook whined.

"What are you talking about? I would've been more embarrassed if you were there! And don't say it any louder! I don't know if Y/n had told anyone yet." Hoseok quickly hushed with a dark blush.

"Ah your probably right, I don't know if I am supposed to know. You know she kinda of said in a spur of moment kind of thing while yelling at Namjoon Hyung." Jungkook lowered his voice with a causal shrug. Hoseok stiffen, his eyes growing wide at his words.

"What?"

"Yeah basically Y/n had warned Namjoon about hurting you again and mentioned to him and Yoongi that you were her lover. It just happened." Jungkook placed his hands behind his head.

"So Namjoon knows?!"

"Basically. But don't sweat it, let's just say I know for sure Y/n's threat would work this time. He won't harm you in anyway now." Jungkook quickly said. He threw Hoseok a casual smile.

"Don't worry, only me and Yoongi Hyung know. I really doubt Hyung is a blabber mouth about it anyway. And I won't say a thing until Y/n tells everyone." Jungkook patted his shoulder. Hoseok glanced at the male and gave a weak smile.

"Okay." Hoseok started to walk along with Jungkook. Jungkook placed his hands behind his head once more while whistling to a random tune. Hoseok remained silent, shoving his hands in his pockets. His head was filled with a million thoughts at the moment. But only one had actually been bothering him since the moment it had happened.

Y/n loved him.

Hoseok still was overwhelmed at the sudden confession. It seem too good to be true. There was just no way she fell that fast. But Hoseok couldn't really complain, he fell just as fast. Still, he didn't think Y/n would actually return his feelings. After she confessed it seem like she backtracked and quickly left him. Like she had immediately regretted her choice. She left him standing there in the dark, alone. Like she always does whenever she's unsure. Since then, she's avoided him, again. It's a game she seems to enjoy. One minute she's hopelessly in love then next she doesn't want a thing to do with him. Hoseok should've guessed that would happen. She loves doing that to him, making his heart pound one second then the next reject him the next.

Hoseok held in a sigh as he flickered his gaze to ground. That was why Hoseok wanted to speak with her. Now she's claiming him as hers but runs away the moment she says she loves him.

What a complicated woman she was.

An overly attractive complicated woman that he was foolishly in love with.

'You know, your only making it harder on yourself. You chose her, so deal with it.'

Hoseok groaned at his inner dialogue. Well his voice was right, he did chose her. Well, more or less his heart did. Most importantly he tried to deny her three times but failed miserably and now here he is, confused as ever with her actions. When will he ever understand that woman?

'Never, just accept it at this point.' 

Hoseok nodded to himself while raising his hand to run his fingers through his hair. Might as well accept it.

"Hey, do you want to talk with Y/n?" Jungkook's voice suddenly brought the prince back into reality. Hoseok perked his head and looked at Jungkook.

"Huh?"

"I'm asking if you want to talk with Y/n about it. You know, the whole relationship thing?"

Hoseok cleared his throat, rubbing behind his neck.

"N-no that's fine, I'm sure she's busy with last minute things. You know she's a very busy woman running the camp and all." Hoseok gave a crooked smile while Jungkook gave him a blank look. He wasn't falling for that act. Also Hoseok's ears had started to turn red. That only meant one thing.

He was lying.

"Did you guys already fight? Is that why you've been avoiding her?"

Hoseok choked on air as his eyes widen in horror. Was he that easy to read? Was Jungkook secretly a mind reader?

"Pft—what?! No! I would never—it's not like that!" Hoseok fumbled on his words as his face slowly started turning red. Jungkook rolled his eyes.

"Hyung, your a terrible lair. Also your ears just keep getting redder, that means your lying." Jungkook pointed out. Hoseok immediately covered his ears with a gasp.

"They do!?"

"Yeah. Why do you think anyone could tell your lying? Your ears get red as tomato's." Jungkook glanced at his ears again even though Hoseok was doing a poor job hiding them.

"Anyways, what really happened? Why are you avoiding her?" Jungkook asked. Hoseok released a heavy sigh, placing his hands on his side.

"I wasn't trying to, if anything, I'm sure she was. Do you ever realize when Y/n is confused or embarrassed she runs away? Like she literally runs away from the person that caused it and let them stand there. Then their left with unanswered questions and more confused as ever because she struggles with expressing her feelings." Hoseok ruffled his hair in frustration. Jungkook furrowed his eyebrows in through, placing his finger on his chin.

"She does that? Usually when she's expressing any emotion she makes it known she's feeling that emotion. When she admitted she cared for me, she didn't run away or anything, she just told me straight up and threaten me that I better not die on her. Typically Y/n has no struggle telling her men how she feels. She's a bit tough skin yes, but she mostly shows her men what she feels." Jungkook explained while Hoseok stared at him stun. She's that comfortable expressing her feelings? So much so she even shows it? Perhaps she wasn't comfortable expressing those feelings to him. Perhaps he still needed a long way to go before he could even get remotely close like that. Hoseok blinked himself back to reality before the thoughts nipped at his skin. He scratched behind his neck while nodding.

"Ah. So it's just me then?" Hoseok said quietly. Feeling the mood shift, Jungkook flickered his eyes back to Hoseok.

"Well maybe, but your different. See, Y/n doesn't see us in a romantic light, we are her brothers, her family. She sees us platonically. Nothing more or nothing less. You, on the other hand, are causing different emotions Y/n is unfamiliar with. Which is understandable. She's never felt such emotions before. Maybe that's why she can't express them as freely as she normally does. I'm sure this is new to her, especially strange to her when you are the prince. Y/n tends to overthink when it comes to new situations, perhaps she's thinking about the pros and cons of liking you. But don't take that like an insult, that's how she thinks. She needs to always be on the edge, she is Robin Hood after all and she still needs to protect her people." Jungkook patted Hoseok's shoulder while the older stared at him. He pursue his lips then releasing a sigh.

"Right. I tend to forget she's not even a normal person to begin with. Well whatever the case is, I still love her. I hope she's aware of that. I hope she knows she doesn't even need to be alert around me." Hoseok said with a smile ghosting his features. Jungkook gave a half smile, placing his hands behind his head.

"Then let her know that. Sometimes that's all Y/n needs, reassurance. If you want a tip Hyung, Namjoon always did that. Reassured her. So do the same, and maybe she would actually believe you. Because let me tell you, she did not ever believe Namjoon whenever he tried reassuring her." Jungkook grinned. Hoseok chuckled while shaking his head.

"Okay. You are really something else Jungkook."

"Thanks, I'll take that as a compliment. Oh! You should probably tell her that when you guys dance." Jungkook whispered with a wink. Hoseok playfully rolled his eyes with a chuckle.

"Right, because that would set up the mood?"

"Exactly!"

"You are ridiculous Jungkook."

Look I know I updated but I felt so guilty that I haven't updated that I wrote like two more chapters after this one. Now I'm not officially back I feel like I would need that month and half break, I still feel like utter crap about myself and just utterly disgusted with myself. Like I don't like who I am and it's annoying me as hell because it keeps me from doing ANYTHING and I can't afford miss anymore school because graduation is just right around the corner ugh but my mental health is just crumbling right in front of my eyes and I don't know what to do. Anyways, on a happy note I suppose, I drew both what Hoseok's outfit and Y/n's looks like so if you guys want to see it I'll post it when the next chapter comes out. Just tell me in the comments. I hope you all are doing well and doing much better than me :)
