[Sunday, October 13th]

Yoongi followed Hoseok up to his apartment. Today they'd agreed that he would meet Hoseok's friends: his roommate Taehyung and his friend Jimin. Yoongi was nervous about both, but he was nervous about everything.

It would be weird to see Jimin after all this time. He hoped that he'd found someone to make him happy and that seeing Yoongi again wouldn't bring up terrible memories. Or at least, not only terrible memories. After all, they had been friends before they dated. And he kind of missed that Jimin.

Upon entering the door, he heard the voice of Taehyung, whining in a continuation of what must have been his and Hoseok's current argument.

"But, Hyuuung! I neeeeeed to write 'Eat a dick' on the box. That was the whole point of these cookies. That and the absurd pictures that will come out of it when others eat them."

"Tae, I can't believe I'm having this conversation. Can you just cool it?"

"I'm the coolest." Tae shot back and then his eyes landed on Yoongi. 

"This - this is him?" He tilted his head as his eyes unashamedly dragged over the pale boy. "Those pouty lips... and that milky skin that could do with some decoration... hmmm. Look at his cute little annoyed face."

Hoseok facepalmed. "Tae, you're thinking out loud."

Taehyung continued to stare. "I am? ... I am." his eyes bulged before his entire face scrunched and he shrugged it off.

He walked over to Yoongi, and, as he did so, his demeanor became dark, focused, and serious. "What are your intentions with my Hobi?"

Yoongi didn't even pause to think. "To make him as happy as he makes me."

"Done. You don't have to ditch him, Hobi." Taehyung glanced at Hoseok before lifting his plate of erotic cookies in front of the eldest. "Eat a dick?"

Jimin hated going to Hoseok and Taehyung's place, even though he loved them to death. Their street never had parking, which was why he took public transportation and walked the rest of the way today.

On his birthday.

He shook the complaints from his head.

After all, he suggested they keep his birthday low-key, much to Taehyung's chagrin. Taehyung wanted to take them all out to a male strip club. Of course he did.

Before recent events, Jimin also, truthfully, would have liked to at least go out tonight instead for drinks and dancing. Maybe scoping out some clothed men.

However

There was Yoongi to think about now. He knew that Yoongi would never be up for any of that.

And it was his god-damned birthday -- what he wanted more than anything was to see Yoongi again and hang out with him.

While he was with his boyfriend... minor details.

He walked up the steps to the door of their building and rang the buzzer marked with their names.

"Jiminnnnn." came the deep voice over the intercom. Taehyung could see him through the safety camera feature.

"Hey, Taehyung! Could you come open the door please?"

"I will, but you gotta dance for me first, baby."

Hoseok's voice lashed out in the background, "TAEHYUNG! Go open the fucking door!"

Jimin laughed at his ridiculous friends, stepping back from the intercom. And then, it set in that this was it:

He was going to see Yoongi.
