a few days had passed and taehyung and jeongguk still hadn't talked.

it almost seemed like one was waiting for the other to approach them first but no one was doing it.

despite this, the group of seven were all going out today.

they hadn't gone out as a group in a while and tensions were pretty high so they decided it was about time.

they planned on going out to the arcade "just like old times".

as of right now, everyone was in their dorms "getting ready".

by that i mean: namjoon was singing loudly in the shower, jimin was putting on makeup, seokjin was admiring himself in the mirror, hoseok was struggling to find his favourite sweatpants, taehyung was attempting to straighten his black curly hair, jeongguk was deciding what obnoxiously thick boots to wear and yoongi was still asleep.

even with all the weird tension, the group hadn't changed one bit.

in 2seok's dorm,

"jin could you quit being a narcissist for like thirty seconds and just help me look for them!" hoseok begged, still looking for a particular pair of sweatpants.

jin replied, not looking away from the mirror, "hoseok, i don't see the big deal. every single pair is grey so just wear a random one, idiot."

"but those ones are a different shade of grey and it throws off the whole outfit!" hoseok insisted.

jin groaned and stood up, "fine i'll help."

~twenty minutes later~

"oh my fucking god hoseok, i'm gonna kill you." jin said.

"what? why?"

"they're right here, dumbass." jin revealed, holding up the hoseok's sweatpants.

"oh sick! where were they?" hoseok asked, taking them.

"they were on the bathroom counter with the rest of your outfit. you must've layed it out last night, stupid. i could've spent these past twenty minutes looking at myself but instead i spent them looking for missing pants that weren't even missing." seokjin complained.

hoseok scratched the back of his neck, "sorry hyungie~"

once they were finally done getting ready, they looked like this...

seokjin:

hoseok:

"do you really have to wear those sweatpants?" seokjin asked, looking hoseok up and down with a disapointed but not suprised stare.

"yes. yes i do." hoseok answered with a smile, looking proud of himself.

"ugh, whatever, let's go." jin said, before unlocking the door.

meanwhile at the minimoni dorm,

jimin was dusting his cheeks and nose in pink blush while namjoon was in the shower, belting out notes he didn't even know exsisted.

jimin wasn't even bothered by his roomate's obnoxious singing anymore.

as if a send from heaven, the water stopped eventually and so did the older boy's singing.

he walked out in a towel and acted as if the whole building didn't hear him singing half of the hamilton musical soundtrack without a single mistake.

jimin chuckled to himself at the thought and just carried on with his makeup, being done with blush and now putting on lipgloss instead.

around ten minutes later, namjoon had gotten dressed and went over to jimin.

"you ready mini?" namjoon said, watching jimin as he gently swiped clear mascara over his eyelashes.

"yep, just one second moni." jimin assured, putting the wand back into the container and picking up his phone.

the two boys looked over their outfits in the mirror...

namjoon:

jimin:

they both nodded in approval and left the dorm, locking the door behind them.

and as for the vkook dorm,

taehyung was trying to straighten his hair but failing miserably so eventually gave up and left it curly as it always was.

as he looked in the mirror, he was thinking. thinking of a way to talk to jeongguk.

he knew he had to at some point, he was just stalling.

god, i'm such a pussy. he's literally nextdoor, i could talk to him right now if i really wanted. he thought.

little did he know, jeongguk was thinking the exact same thing.

taehyung knew that walking over with jeongguk would be ten whole minutes of silent torture so he decided to meet the other guys on his own.

he knocked on the door that jeongguk was behind and told him he was leaving and walked out without waiting for a reply.

he looked at himself in the mirror before leaving...

taehyung:

jeongguk heard him leave and sighed, fixing up his hair before pulling on his shoes.

he looked in the mirror...

jeongguk:

he decided he looked good and then left the dorm.

whereas in the yoonson dorm,

yoongi was being agressively shaken by his roomate, jackson, who he had told to wake him up on time the day before.

"ugh, why do you ever tell me to wake you up when you never do?" jackson groaned, still shaking the boy.

"nng~ five more minutes~" yoongi whined.

jackson stopped, getting an idea, "well i guess you'll just have to keep your precious jiminie waiting. such a shame. he's probably waiting for you."

yoongi shot up, "oh shit, i'm late!"

the shorter male jumped out of bed and into the shower at the speed of light.

"i don't think i've ever seen him move that fast before." jackson mumbled to himself, chuckling at how whipped his roomate was for this "jiminie" boy he'd always talk about.

yoongi showered in two minutes before jumping out and drying off quickly. he pulled on his boxers and rummaged through his drawers for an outfit.

he found something decent and put it on before rubbing a towel on his mint green hair to dry it. he ran his tattooed hands through it, attempting to somewhat style it but only making it fluffy and messy. that was how he liked it anyway.

that's how jimin liked it but he wasn't gonna admit that he was thinking about that.

he looked over himself in the mirror...

yoongi:

he collected his stuff and then walked towards the door.

"thanks for not waking me up jackson!" he said before rushing out.

jackson sighed with a laugh, "aish, this hyung..."

~time skip~

they had all met outside the school, seokjin growing impatient with yoongi.

"oh look, there he is." hoseok said, pointing at the boy's bright coloured hair in the distance.

"the only good thing about his hair colour is that we can never lose him." jeongguk mentioned, making the other's chuckle.

once the boy reached them, he was immediately scolded by seokjin.

"you're literally never on time, jesus! i spent twenty minutes looking for a pair of sweatpants and i still managed to get here earlier than you."

"i'm sorry~ my alarm didn't wake me up!"

"whatever, let's go already."

and so the group began their walk to the local arcade which was quite close by.

after about twenty minutes, they'd made it. they all had their money and their favourite games in mind.

they walked in and stood in a circle.

"okay, same bet as usual?" namjoon asked.

"yep, whoever get's the most tickets gets to choose the food and whoever gets the least has to pay for it." hoseok assured.

"alright, three~" seokjin started.

"two~"

"one~"

"GO!"

and with that they were off, yoongi and jimin were playing the basketball game, taehyung and hoseok were playing a racing game and namjoon, jin and jeongguk were scattered around too.

most of yoonmin's time was spent flirting, most of taeseok's time was spent laughing and screaming and most of jeonjinjoon's time was spent bullying eachother.

taehyung and jeongguk both seemed so carefree and loose, the rest of the group loved to see it.

although jeongguk would admit that he wanted to be hoseok messing around with tae at some times and taehyung would admit that he wanted to be his brother namjoon getting into silly rivalries with jeongguk, they both still managed to enjoy themselves.

everyone completely forgot about yoongi and jimin who were just in their own little world 90% of the time.

seokjin looked over at them and then leaned into namjoon's ear, whispering to him, "look."

namjoon looked at where he pointed and he saw yoongi kiss jimin's forehead before giving him half his tickets.

"since when was yoongles so soft?" namjoon asked with a laugh.

"apparently since he fell head over heels for the other shorty." seokjin answered.

suddenly jeongguk started dragging them away, "stop snooping in on their relationship and play the mariokart game with me instead~"

namjin both giggled at the youngest's childlike actions and followed him to his game of choice.

hoseok and taehyung were playing basketball not too far away.

"so, tae, what's up with you and junglebook?" hoseok asked, in reference to jeongguk.

jeongguk could hear their conversation and wanted to know taehyung's answer so he tuned his ears in and leaned slightly more in their direction.

"i honestly don't know. i know i need to apologise to him and talk things out but i don't know how to do that without fucking it up." taehyung admitted.

jeongguk sighed, realising that he and tae were both in the same state of mind.

"i just want things to go back to the way they were... i really miss him." taehyung sighed.

"awh, it's alright taehyungie. everything'll work out eventually. i mean, you two could never be apart for too long." hoseok comforted.

"yeah, i hope so hobi."

jeongguk internally groaned, knowing that he needed to talk to his bestfriend soon.

~time skip~

two hours later, they all gathered back in their circle to see who had the most and least tickets.

as they went around, they came to the conclusion that jeongguk had the most and taehyung had the least.

"tae, how the hell did you get so little? i was barely playing and i was giving mine away but i still managed to get more than you." yoongi asked, laughing.

taehyung pouted, "i'm bad at arcade games!"

"no, you're only bad at the basketball game but you always insist on playing it because you insist that you're good at it which is why you always end up with the least tickets." namjoon corrected.

"oh shut up, brother." taehyung shot back, earning a stuck out tongue from namjoon.

"hurry up! i'm hungry!" hoseok yelled.

"shut up hobi." yoongi said.

"that's not nice yoonie." jimin said, playing with the rings on the older boy's fingers and tracing over his butterfly tattoo.

"i'm sorry jiminie."

"simp!" hoseok chanted over and over.

yoongi tackled hoseok and they fought on the floor like puppies.

"so, while they kill eachother, jeongguk can decide where we're eating." namjoon said.

jeongguk thought about it for a bit.

he didn't want to pick something expensive because taehyung was paying.

so he went for taehyung's favourite food ever.

"let's just go back to jin's dorm and order pizza." he smiled.

taehyung's eyes lit up and he smiled to himself and everyone agreed on the choice before prying yoonseok away from murdering eachother and leaving the arcade.

once they arrived at 2seok's room, they ordered a ton of pizza and ate every last slice as soon as it arrived.

they played random board games and watched shitty romcoms.

just like old times.
