It had been a week since the death of Mina and Hoseok hadn't left his home.

His mother had allowed him to stay home, as he was still devastated.

Jeongguk and Yoongi had tried to visit him, but he wouldn't allow them to see him. He wouldn't even respond to their text messages or calls.

Yoongi had felt guilty.

Hoseok had called him and he missed it. He had been with Jeongguk at the time and his cell phone was dead.

As soon as his phone had accumulated some charge, he returned Hoseok's phone call, but the boy didn't answer. In fact, Yoongi had called him eight different times and was sent straight to voicemail each time.

After their fifth and final attempt to visit Hoseok, Yoongi texted him, telling him that they were no longer going to try and if Hoseok wanted to see or talk to them, he would have to put forth the effort.

Jeongguk was the one who ya urges him to send the message, as Yoongi feared that it would destroy their friendship.

"Yoongi, if that destroys your friendship with him, then obviously your friendship doesn't mean that much to him," Jeongguk had told him sternly.

Hoseok had read the message, but he still hand replied. It was driving Yoongi crazy with anxiety, but he knew that all he could do was wait.

Due to Hoseok isolating himself, Yoongi spent his time with Jeongguk.

Most of the time they cuddled and napped together, but there were times when the two just went at each other.

Jeongguk's mother had probably caught on to what was happening, as they would always lock the door and blast music, but neither of them really cared.

A week after Yoongi had sent the text to Hoseok, he had finally received a reply.

Hoseok had apologized for the way he had been acting and said that he would be coming back to school on that upcoming Monday.

Yoongi was ecstatic, but Jeongguk seemed more irritated than anything. Sure, Hoseok was his friend and all, but he wasn't one to forgive so easily.

Instead of joining the two older boys for pizza after school that Monday, Jeongguk went straight home. He claimed that he had a lot of homework to do, but Yoongi knew better. He knew that Jeongguk was still mad at Hoseok and he made a note to talk to the younger about it later.

Once he was home, Jeongguk immediately went up to his bedroom and locked the door. He haphazardly threw his backpack on his bed, heading to his computer.

He turned it on and logged into his account, clicking on the icon for the game he played the most.

Getting through the introduction and home screen, a message appeared.

Welcome back, TheSandman.
