Hoseok didn't understand what his friend was mumbling about. So he decided to visit Namjoon's house the next morning. He really wanted Namjoon and Jin to be together.

The next morning, Hoseok went to Namjoon's home.

"Hobi, what are you doing here this early?" Jin asked him, opening the door with sleepy eyes.

"Good morning, Jin. I have something important to ask Namjoon. Did he wake up?"

"I don't know. Maybe he has not. Because he has not come out of his room. You can wait. I'm going to make some tea for us then."

Hoseok sat on the couch and waited for Jin. Jin came with four cups of green tea.

"We're three, Jin. Why are there four cups?"

Jin smiled sweetly and said, "We're not three. I have someone to introduce to you, Hobi... Wait, I'm bringing Joonie and the person here." He went to Namjoon's room. Earlier, he made Namjoon to came to his room and sleep beside Jungkook as Namjoon was sleeping on the couch, which made Jin feel bad. That's how Namjoon and Jungkook ended up sleeping in the same room. (Namjoon's apartment had a single room.)

After like four or five minutes, three people came out of the room. Hobi could not recognize the boy beside Jin.

"Wow, who is this handsome man beside you Jin?"

"Hobi, this is Jungkook, my brother. He came here to find me. We're going back home soon." Jin said.

Hoseok then understood why Namjoon broke down last night. He looked at Namjoon with sad eyes.

"Joon, I have something to tell you. Can we go to your room?" Hoseok asked.

Namjoon was confused but nodded. They went inside the room. Jin went inside the kitchen with Jungook to make breakfast and ready a lanch box for Namjoon.

"Who did Jin's brother find him here?" Hoseok sat on Namjoon's bed beside him.

"I brought him here." Then he told Hoseok how he found Jungkook.

After listening, Hoseok rubbed his hand on Namjoon's back, "So, he is going back, right? But..."

"But what?" Namjoon faced his friend in the dim light of the room. He was trying hard to suppress his tears.

"But tell that you love him. For at least one."

"But, Hobi, if I can't have him here with e, then what's the point to tell him how I feel. He'll be happy with his family. So I want to set him free from my love."

"How did you know that he's not happy with you or he'll not be happier with you? Did he tell you that?"

"No."

"So? I have seen love for you in his eyes. Can you not feel it, the way he takes care of you, always gets worried when you don't pick up your call? Have you not seen the smile he brings when you compliment his cooking?"

"I..."

"You're really dumb at this, Joon. Just tell him and face what comes after it. Suppressing your feelings inside your heart is not a great thing. Try to understand!" Hoseok was trying hard to convince his friend.

"You're right. Now I want him to know about my feeling before he goes."

"That's my boy!" Hoseok hugged Namjoon.

"But what's about Jungkook? He always sticks around with Jin. He's even going to Jin's workplace with him today. I can't tell those things in front of him."

"I can take him away for some time. Like I can take him on a tour of the city. It'll take some hours. So you can get your time."

"That's a good idea. Thanks, Hobi. You're the best." Namjoon showed his dimples.

"I know," Hoseok said.

They were planning the proposal when they heard a light knock on the door, and a sweet voice, "Hyungs, Jinie Hyung has prepared the breakfast. Please come out." It was Jungkook.

"Okay, Jungkook, you go first, we're coming in a min," Namjoon answered.

"No! I can't go without you. Jinie Hyung strictly ordered me to bring you there with me. He'll kill me if I go alone. Please come."

"He's so cute!" Hoseok giggled.

"But he's very muscular though. A tough body with a soft heart. Jin needs a brother like him, who can make him smile and protect him from bad things." Namjoon said.

"He needs you too, dumb! You can protect him too."

"I can?! I don't have that much body strength."

"But you have the strength of your heart and love. Now let's go!"

When they finished their breakfast, Hoseok said, "Jin, I have an idea. As Jungkook is new here, I can show him the city around. You two have lots of things to do. I have some free time tomorrow. So, Jungkook, are you going with me tomorrow? It'll be great fun."

"That's a great idea, Hobi! Thanks a lot. Jungkook will love it too. I want him to know you guys and this place better before we return." Jin's eyes shined.

"But I... I can't go anywhere without you, Hyung." Namjoon mumbled.

"Don't worry, Kookie. You'll love Hobi's company. I'm sure. Trust me!" Jin ruffled his brother's hair.

"Okay, Hyung, if you say so." Jungkook gave an awkward smile. Everyone understood that it was a little hard for Jungkook. But Namjoon and Hoseok had no choice.

Hoseok slightly smiled at Namjoon, who smiled hopefully.

The next day after breakfast, Jungkook got ready with the new T-shirt and jeans that his Hyung brought for him. He was happy, getting so much love and attention from Jin after a long time. Hoseok took him in his car and drove away. Jin and Namjoon went to their duties.

Namjoon was absent-minded the whole time, thinking about how he'll tell Jin his feelings. "Should I buy something for him?... No, he'll not like it. He'll definitely scold me if I do... Then should I take him to a nice restaurant for a dinner?... Nah, it'll cost a lot and he's working at a restaurant. He'll not feel free there... What should I do?" He banged his head on the table. And with that, he got the idea. A simple surprise date for his love. He smiled and his face got red. Everyone around him found him wired, grinning and giggling to himself. But he didn't give a damn to them.

He knew when Jin's shift ended. So he called Jin.

"Joonie?! What's up? You called me?! Did something happen?" Jin answered the call.

"No, Jin... Nothing serious. I just... I just wanted to ask you if you're free to go somewhere with me." Namjoon was nervous.

"With others?"

"No... I mean just me and you. I really want to take you somewhere. Can you please come with me?"

"Ah, Joonie! Why are you talking like this? Of course, I can go. But when?"

"Now. I'm coming. Wait for five minutes. Okay?"

"Okay, Joonie. Then I'm calling Hoseok to let them know that we're going somewhere. We'll be late."

"No!" Namjoon almost shouted, but calm himself so that Jin didn't suspect him... "I mean, I have already informed them. So don't worry. Just wait for me."

"Okay, Joonie!"

Jin was waiting for Namjoon at the nearby bus stop when he saw him coming out of a taxi with a small bouquet. When Namjoon came near Jin, he smiled sweetly.

"Where are we going, Joonie?" Jin asked.

"It's a surprise! Just wait. It'll take 15 minutes of drive."

"Okay. And these flowers?"

"It's for you." Namjoon gave the bouquet to Jin.

"But why?"

"Nothing special. It reminded me of you, so I brought it."

"It's so beautiful! Thank you, Joonie!"

"Not more than you," Namjoon whispered.

"What?" Jin couldn't hear it.

"Nothing, nothing. Let's go!"

They arrived at a small but beautiful river-side park. The lights from the opposite-side city were reflecting on the water. And the silence was giving a calm vine. Namjoon loved that place a lot. So he wanted to open up before Jin here. Jin was mesmerised by the beauty of the place. Namjoon led him to a table. He booked it before.

"This place is so beautiful, Joonie!" Jin was smiling bright, which melted Namjoon's heart.

"Do you like it?" He asked.

"Yes. I like it a lot! Thank you for bringing me here. Bur you didn't have to spend this money for me, Joonie! You earned it with hard work." Jin pouted.

"I can do anything for you."

"What happened to you, Joonie? You're behaving oddly today." Jin was confused.

Namjoon took a sip of his drink and sighed.

"Look, Jin! I'll not talk round and round. Let me straight to the point... I love you. I love you, Jin... Not as a friend, as a lover!" He said almost without a breath because he was hell nervous.

There was complete silence from the other side. Namjoon was preparing himself for the rejection, his eyes were closed. After a moment, he felt warmth in his hand. He opened his eyes and saw Jin with teary eyes and his warm palm was on Namjoon's hand. Namjoon gathered some more courage and said, "Ah... If you don't like or love me, it's okay. I don't want to force you to love me. I just... I just wanted to tell you how I feel for you. That's it. I know that you're not from here. It's difficult for you, to live here. And love... Love is something that... that... Oh... I don't know what I'm saying. Please don't mind me." So many different feelings were flooding inside Namjoon's heart.

He was about to stand up when Jin grabbed his hand and made him sit. Namjoon could see Jin's red face. He was smiling shyly. He was looking so cute.

Namjoon was waiting for Jin's answer with a heavy heart.

"Joonie, I... I like you too... I don't know if it's love or not but I really like you." Jin softly said, which made Namjoon's heart skip.

"Am I hearing it right? You really like me, Jin?! Really? You're not joking, right?" Namjoon almost jumped with a big smile and two cute dimples. Jin giggled watching him so childish. He nodded, "Yes, I do!"

"Then... Then, you can try to love me as much as I love you. Right?" Namjoon asked with puppy eyes.

"I'll try my best, Joonie." Jin couldn't say any further as Namjoon pulled him in a big tight hug. Jin smiled and put his chin on Namjoon's shoulder and hugged him back.
