SOPE chapter. It feels like an unfinished business. If I'm satisfied with it, TaeJin will be back on the next chapter.

A month later ...

"Hi, Joon." Hoseok lifted his head and saw Namjoon entered the building. They were in Taehyung's company and he didn't expected the man to be here. He waved his hands at him excitedly.

"Oh! The bench guy! Hoseok right?" He flashed again that smile that Hoseok saw on the park that day. He really feels warm and cozy when he remembers that smile. His dimples was just an add up bonus to his charms.

Yoongi who was watching the scene unfold before his eyes threw them a sharp look. Well, not both of them but only Namjoon specifically.

"What are you doing here?" Hoseok asked and stood up of his chair to talk to Namjoon.

"I am here for Taehyung and Seokjin. I have something to ask of him."

"Oh, they are not here. They went out for an early lunch and will go to their son to bring him here. They will be back at around 2 or 3pm."

Namjoon looked at his watch and saw that he still has 3 and a half hours more to go.

"I can wait. I have nothing to do today."

Hoseok can't help himself but admire how Namjoon's smile never faded since he got here. He seemed so happy. Hoseok felt envious. He can't even clearly remember the last time he wad genuinely happy.

"Can I ask you now for lunch? I think we have some unfinished business last time." Namjoon said.

Hoseok giggled.

"Of course. Are you gonna tell me some more fun facts?" He teased. He really thinks that Namjoon has a very intelligent mind. But on top of that, he is a nice person with a very charming personality.

"Oh, about that, Octopuses or Octopi has only 3 hearts and there is a type of Octopus that has nine brains whose ink is deadly and it's skin can camouflage. I gave away false information, sorry, my bad!"

Hoseok smiled wider and patted Namjoon's shoulder. "It's okay. We will continue this at lunch. You can tell me everything you know."

"Excuse me, did you forgot about me?" Yoongi spoke.

Hoseok looked at him wide eyed. Yes he did forgot about him. He was so entertained by Namjoon that he forgot that they are at work! He covered his mouth with his hand and bowed his head.

"Oh. I'm sorry, I forgot." He apologetically said and turned to Namjoon, "Joon, I'm sorry maybe next time. Can I have your phone?"

Namjoon handed him his phone and Hoseok typed his number. "Text me when you want us to talk. I'd love to hear more from you!"

Then he looked again at Yoongi. He looks constipated at how his face is contorted and his hold on his pen is so tight it can break. He took a deep breath and spoke.

"Yoongi, can we, please just for once, let Namjoon join us? He is nice. He won't bother you." He said. He got Yoongi's full attention and the other is just looking at him. "It's okay, right? You don't like me talking much when we're together, it's a win-win situation for us."

Yoongi just sighed and nodded his head. He didn't uttered a word and stood up. "Let's go. It's almost 12. I don't want to eat late."

Hoseok clapped his hands and held on Namjoon's hand. The three of them went to the nearest restaurant and ordered their food. All throughout, Namjoon was only talking to Hoseok and vice versa. Yoongi looked like their chaperone.

"Hey, I have something to share you about flatworms."

Namjoon faced sideways to look at Hoseok. They were sitting side by side and Yoongi was in front of them just watching every scene. He hasn't spoke a word since they got here. The only time when he spoke was when they ordered food.

"What is it?" Hoseok asked while eating his pasta.

"Well, it is said that if a tapeworm was decapitated, it regrows it's head and all it's memories come back with it too."

Hoseok gasped in awe but he was stopped when Yoongi spoke.

"Can you shut up? You're both noisy. Stop talking about octopus and tapeworms and stuffs!"

"Sorry, man." Namjoon apologized and went back eating. "Hoseok, can we go home together? I'd like to show you some of my artworks. I think you'll like them."

Hoseok was about to say yes when Yoongi cut him off by speaking.

"Where do you work?" Out of the blue Yoongi asked. He seemed to be interested at Namjoon now.

"I don't have a work." Namjoon said.

Yoongi smiled smugly. "So you're a bummer?" He chewed on his food like those good looking bad guys in those teenage films that Hoseok watched back then.

Namjoon nodded his head. "A bummer? Yeah I can say that. But not literally a bummer."

"You're not a bummer. A bummer with a McLaren? Are you for real?" Hoseok exclaimed.

"Well, I don't technically work so I'm a bummer. But my source of income comes from stocks. I'm a stock holder for different companies so I just wait for money to come in my bank account. Easy peasy."

The grin on Yoongi's face was wiped away. He just continued eating and pretended not to exist.

Lunch time was over and Taehyung and Jin arrived. It was earlier than expected but Yoongi was happy. Hoseok noticed it. His eyes lit up when he saw the couple enter the office and Hoseok caught him smiled.

"I was gonna ask you if you thought about my offer and if you will go to our reunion?" Namjoon asked.

"Well, let's go, Tae. But Namjoon, I don't want to perform. Is that okay?"

Namjoon nodded and smiled again. He stretched his hands and bowed.

"It's okay. I'll just find another performer. Thank you!"

Seokjin said sorry. Namjoon said it's okay and decided to went home he bid one by one goodbye including Yoongi and him.

"So I guess I won't be coming home with you for now. I'll just go and look for a performer to have an act on our reunion."

"Well, if you don't know, I am a dancer and a rapper. Maybe I can be of help. But my talent fee is high. Can you live up to that?" Hoseok said and chuckled.

"Really!? Of course! How much was it? I'll pay great amounts for you."

Hoseok laughed.

"I'm just joking. I'll do it for free. Just make sure it's the weekend so I can come."

Namjoon hurriedly checked his calendar.

"Yes!" He sounded like he won the lottery with the way he reacted. "It's Sunday three weeks from now."

"Count me in!" Hoseok cheered.

Namjoon hugged Hoseok to Hoseok's surprise. Nit after a while later he bid goodbye and left. It was also time for them to go home and both him and Yoongi was on the car. It wad just pure silence until Yoongi broke it.

"I didn't know you dance and rap."

"I do. I always tell you. But it shows that you don't care." Hoseok felt bitter. He thought Yoongi would know but it turns out it's the opposite.

"Can I borrow your phones?"

Hoseok furrowed his brows but still gave his phones right away. He has two phones one for business matters and one for his personal use. He doesn't understand what Yoongi needs on his phone until the car windows were rolled down and his phone was thrown out of the window.

"What the fuck! What are you doing!?"

"It's old. Buy something new." Yoongi shrugged as if it's a normal act to just throw away his iPhone.

They arrived back to their house and Hoseok still can't get over his phone.

"But what about my contacts? It's for your business dumbass!"

"Don't care. I'll buy you later. Just don't go around giving your numbers to strangers." Yoongi told him and went straight to the door.

They were still arguing up until their room.

"I don't give my numbers to strangers! What are you saying? Are you out of your mind?"

"Then explain what you did earlier?"

"What? What did I do?" Hoseok asked Yoongi. He can't clearly remember anything of what he says.

"That Namjoon guy!?"

"What? He's a friend of mine! He's not a stranger!" He raised his voice now.

"But why are you so close?" Yoongi asked.

"I like him." Hoseok said. It's the truth. Even though he knows that he loves Yoongi so much, he likes Namjoon too. He doesn't know what type of 'like' he is feeling with Namjoon but it definitely feels good.

"Say what?"

"I like him." Hoseok repeated.

Yoongi walked towards his direction and Hoseok was continually stepping backwards until he hits the wall.

"You can't."

"Why!?" Hoseok asked.

"You just can't."

"I can! You don't care whom I like or whom I'm gonna date. That's not your business." He looked straight to Yoongi's eyes.

"So you're gonna date that Namjoon?"

Hoseok rolled his eyes.

"Maybe. Maybe yes, maybe no. I can't tell."

"Why?" He inched his face closer to Hoseok's.

"You know the answer." Hoseok said trying to remain calm and brave.

"What about me?" Yoongi said in a low tone.

Hoseok was so triggered. He felt his blood rushing uo to his head.

"You? What about you!?" Hoseok sounded so furious. "Why is everything should be about you!?" He is feeling so mad now at how Yoongi was being selfish.

"When will it be for me? When will Jung Hoseok live as Jung Hoseok and not Min Yoongi's Hobi? Why does my life have to revolve around you?"

"Because it should."

The next thing Hoseok knew, his lips were being devoured by Min Yoongi.
