"No.",Seokjin's firm voice rumbled inside the silent library room.

Jisoo whined.

"Please~"

"I said no and its not going to change.",Seokjin stated before slowly running his fingers upon the spines of books stacked inside the bookshelves.

"But you often sneak out of the palace Oraboni. Why are you forbidding me then?!",Jisoo complained and made her brother turn around to face her fully.

Seokjin let out a frustrated sigh as he looked at his sister.

"Because you don't have any experience in doing such things. And besides.... You've never been interested in exploring the town before.Its absolutely clear that somebody is planting these ideas in your mind.",he said sternly before glancing at the person standing behind Jisoo.

Taehyung suppressed an obvious smirk on his face and brought his hands up in a surrendering way.

"Taehyung is not "planting any ideas"! He is just....supporting my adventurous nature,that's all.",the younger omega mumbled;her lips creating a cute pout.

Seokjin rolled his eyes.

"Adventurous nature ! Soo! Just say it that you want to spend some time with lady Jennie at the fair."

And with that one comment,Seokjin was able to shut Jisoo's mouth.

"If you want to then just go with her.Why do you need to visit the fair secretly?Why all this planning of sneaking out?I don't think Eomonie would stop you if Ta-.... Uh...Duke Taehyung-nim requests her.",the elder stated and the younger was quick to give a reply.

"Because I can't bring Rosé and Lisa with me! They'd be teasing me all the time.I would...I would feel..awkward.",she mumbled as a blush appeared on her cheeks.

"Then why do you want me to go if you want to spend some quality time with her ?!",Seokjin asked with his wide eyes flickering between Taehyung and Jisoo.

"Because as you mentioned earlier,I don't have much experience in these things and...neither Jennie has.So....we concluded that it'd be better if both of you come with us too.",Jisoo reasoned;earning a slight bent on her brother's eyebrows.

" What do you mean by "we concluded" ?"

Taehyung cleared his throat.

"I'll take care of this,Noona.You should go and start getting ready now.",he said with a warm smile.

Jisoo looked at Taehyung before glancing back at her brother. She sighed and muttered "I'm trusting you." to Taehyung as she exited the library.

Seokjin stood there;dumbfounded by Taehyung's confidence.And the way these two behave with each other now.They act as if they've already become siblings-in-law.

As soon as Taehyung opened his mouth, he snapped.

"I'm not going to say yes."

Taehyung chuckled in his deep voice but Seokjin ignored him.

He turned around and engaged himself in finding the book he was looking for.

"I couldn't say no to them.They were so excited...",the deep voice mumbled behind him.

"You gave them the idea to drag me along,didn't you?!And who gave you this assurance that you're able to take care of this ?",Seokjin mocked the younger;his back still facing the other.

Taehyung looked at Seokjin's left hand when he lifted it above his head;his long and crooked fingers that were brushing their tips upon the book covers with such delicateness and elegance.

His eyes gradually went down through his slender arm,wide shoulder and finally upon his pearl white neck that was stretched beautifully as Seokjin had his head tilted at the right.

Taehyung gulped and immediately looked away.

Seokjin frowned at the lack of response from the alpha.Huffing, he turned back to face the younger and muttered,-

"Fine! I'm going...now stop being so gloomy."

Taehyung's head snapped up and he amusedly looked at the elder.

"But I've a condition. I'll bring some more guests with me.",Seokjin said as if he was making some kind of deal.

"Bring anybody you want,as long as it remains hidden from my Queen.",Taehyung said with a victorious smirk as he leaned against a bookshelf.

-------------------------

Jeongguk's doe eyes got wider.

"Fair?!"

Seokjin nodded and it followed with another question from the younger.

"Without informing Eomonie?!"

The omega silently nodded once again.

"Why does Noona want to do such a thing all of a sudden?!",Jeongguk asked confusedly.

"Love,my baby brother. Love makes people do a lot of things that make absolutely no sense at all ! Whom am I even preaching anyways?!",Seokjin made a cringed expression.

Jeongguk laughed heartily.

"I'll hear you when you will fall for someone.I better keep quiet until then.",he smirked and Seokjin scoffed at him as an answer.

"Anyways.... Yoongi and Namjoon is coming. Now tell me if you want to come or not.Jimin and Hoseok can join us too then."

The young alpha prince hesitated. He shifted on his bed a little and kept fidgeting with his fingers.

"Umm...actually... Jimin....Jimin hyung's heat...",he stammered out of coyness.

Seokjin sighed.

"Its okay....I got it.I should....get ready now."

"Be safe hm?",Jeongguk reminded as Seokjin walked up to the door.

The elder nodded with a smile before turning around.

He feels so proud and happy that his brother is such a kind and considerate alpha.He is so caring towards his mate;it melts Seokjin's heart.

Yes;everything has been resolved between Jimin and Jeongguk. The younger prince apologized to the omega for his uncertain behavior and confessed about his feelings infront of them all.

Jimin was quick to forgive his love.Too quick;in Seokjin's point of view. He himself would never be such an easy mate ever!

A lot more things has happened in the last three months.Hoseok and Jeongguk has become the best of brothers once again, just the way they were before.All thanks to Yoongi.

Speaking of Yoongi,Seokjin just can not deny the fact that he has been noticing some subtle changes in his bestfriend lately.

Which reminds him of....himself?

A smile unconsciously crept up on the omega's lips.

His and Taehyung's relation has changed a lot in the course of these three months.

They have become more comfortable with each other.He doesn't feel that awkwardness with the younger anymore.Although Seokjin can not ignore those occasional intense gazes of the alpha;he can't really claim that he doesn't relish them secretly.

He flinched as a hand tapped on one of his shoulders all of a sudden.

He stopped abruptly and turned around.

"Taehyung!"

"Why do you always get so scared whenever I come infront of you?!",Taehyung wondered; tilting his head a little.

The way Taehyung looks at his eyes and tilts his head to get a better view of them when Seokjin keeps his eyes averted; that gesture...that single gesture makes Seokjin feel like his thoughts and feelings are being exposed infront of the younger.

"Because you always come out of nowhere!",he quickly brushed off the thought from his own mind that he had been thinking about Taehyung until he himself came infront of the elder.

Taehyung huffed.

"Are you going or not?, We're getting late."

"I am ! I won't take much time,I promise.",Seokjin pouted a little.

Taehyung smiled genuinely.Seokjin isn't even conscious about the fact that he is pouting right now.And that makes Taehyung look at the elder with even more fondness.

Oh how he wishes to just devour those......

He let out a forced chuckle;trying to get rid of his own.....unlikely thoughts.

"Its alright. Take your time.I'll wait,my prince.",he muttered.

-#---#----#---#---#---#---#---#---#---#---#--#-

Anneyong-haseo!

How are y'all?

I know nobody's gonna answer me.

So yeah.....moving on.

Is this getting boring? It is right? I swear even I am becoming impatient for Taejin to happen.

I mean if I was in your place I would've just yelled "WTF Authornim DON'T JUDGE MY PATIENCE!"

BUT....Anyways....

Please bear with me.... :')

Love y'all ❤

Purple Ya! ^_^💜
