"Are we actually surprised that they're late?" Asked Yoongi as he sipped on his ice tea.

Jimin turned and looked at him. "Why? Because it's them and they're always doing something to take up other people's time?"

"Um, no . . . I was more thinking because of jet lag but we'll go with what you said." Yoongi said, standing right by Hoseok.

Seokjin pulled out his phone, seeing the time. "Well, we're leaving in ten minutes and if they aren't here or ready by then, we're-"

"We're here, shit, calm down." Jeongguk said, fixing the bucket hat on his head. "Cut us some slack, will you? We are living in a thirteen hour difference right now."

Jungkook fixed his jacket over his shoulders, pulling the mask over his lips and nose. "You guys have a big enough vehicle for the eight of us, right?" He asked.

Yoongi narrowed his brows. "You mean the seven of us, right?"

The younger twin turned, eyes looking a bit widened. "I said that." He claimed, gulping somewhat.

Namjoon hummed, ignoring what happened just now. "Well, we're splitting the group. One group will go with Seokjin and the other will go with Hoseok. Yoongi is going with Hoseok while Jimin and I go with a Seokjin. You both can go with Hoseok or split between you two, we left it up to you guys."

"Seokjin."

"Hoseok."

The Jeon Twins both said different names, Jungkook lowering his head as he sighed quietly. "Guess we're splitting." He muttered, walking over to Seokjin with a bit of disappointment in his vowels.

Jeongguk swung his bag off his back, looking at Hoseok. "Where's your car?" He questioned.

***

     Jeongguk was opted to sit in the back because Hoseok and Yoongi didn't bother asking where he wanted to sit and picked their spots in the front. He didn't mind too much, trying to think of pros on why this was better.

"Do you get to pick what team you play for?" Hoseok asked, looking in his review mirror to see Jeongguk staring out the window.

Yoongi huffed. "Hobi, I already told you he was drafted."

"For the military?"

"No," Jeongguk said, slowly turning his attention to the two. "Every April, there is an NFL draft. Professional teams will pick up college players based on skill. The Carolina Panthers picked me up, needing a backup quarterback. I'm only a backup since I just started but I'm playing right now because the current quarterback is injured. He'll be back in a few months."

"I didn't understand any of that." Hoseok informed.

"Maybe if you went to more of my games, you would get it." Jeongguk retorted. "But . . . Yoongi, when did you start watching and paying attention to football?"

The aforementioned hummed. "I always payed attention to football, I went to all of your home games. When I saw your name pop up on my timeline, I didn't think it could be you until I read it and was like, wow. I only picked up a few things from it when I read the two articles I found about it. Something about you playing in Korea which was a bit different in America and how you're still not fluent in English but-"

"I can have a conversation. I understand more than I speak." Jeongguk frowned, feeling a bit insulted.

"Let me finish, kid," Yoongi chuckled. "But, like I was saying, you try hard and put all your passion in, not letting the language barrier stop you. You're doing extremely well, your throwing really improved."

"Thanks." Jeongguk muttered, looking back out the window.

"Do you get it now, Hoseok?" Asked Yoongi.

Hoseok gave a slight nod. "We'll say I do, Yoonie. I wish I was listening just now." With that comment, Hoseok received a small pinch on the bicep. "Hey!"

"Pay attention next time, I don't speak to hear how nice my voice is."

"Yeah it is," Hoseok smirked. "Nice, deep, breathy voice." Hoseok teased.

"You guys are aware of how gay you sound right now, right?" Jeongguk joined back into the conversation. "It's actually disgusting coming from you two."

Yoongi and Hoseok shared a look, the elder turning back and facing Jeongguk. "Um, Gguk," he began. "You do know me and Hoseok are dating, yeah? I thought we told everyone at the table . . . ?"

"You guys date?! Wait," The Jeon Twin fixed his posture. "When? When did you tell us?"

"If you weren't so upset and butt-hurt yesterday, you would've heard mine and Yoongi's announcement." Hoseok snickered, loving the confusion he heard come from Jeongguk's vowels.

Jeongguk parted his lips. "I knew you fucked when I was in senior year but I didn't know you guys were dating. When did you start?"

"How did you know we had sex, firstly? And . . . What? We're going onto a year in two months." Said Yoongi, trying to stifle his shy smile.

"You would act really fucking weird when you had sex back then, I don't know if you ever caught yourself, but you would make these really ugly faces and be very handsy." Jeongguk informed. "That's how I found out you and Jimin slept together, you would just be all over him and giddy and really gross."

Hoseok laughed. "You makes signs that you had sex?" He inquired.

"I didn't know I did for the record." Yoong sighed. "If it was good sex, it was good sex." He scoffed, turning away to hide his reddening face. He became flustered, not expecting to get exposed like that. His pride and little meow meow.

On the other hand, in the other car, Jungkook was sitting in the passenger seat, hearing Seokjin and Namjoon bust out their vocals to western music, questioning if Jungkook knew every song that came on since he lived in America currently.

He regretted all life choices after deciding to get into Seokjin's car and not Hoseok's. He really wondered if Jeongguk was having as bad of time as he was.

"So . . ." Jimin leaned forward, placing his hand on Jungkook's shoulder to grab his attention just in case he wasn't able to hear him over the horrible duet going on. "How are things in America? Did you guys move there right after high school?"

Jungkook leaned a bit so he could hear Jimin. He shook his head. "It was about seven months after high school when we then moved. Jeongguk expressed how he wanted to play football and we had nothing better going on for us in Korea. We just needed to break away."

"From?"

"Huh?"

"Well, you said 'break away'. Break away from what exactly?" Jimin caught onto what Jungkook was saying but he wanted to dig a bit deeper. The twins might've not missed Taehyung but Jimin did. He wanted to know why Taehyung stopped talking to everyone imaginable.

Jungkook tongued his cheek, sucking his teeth in thought. "Just . . . We needed something new. South Korea doesn't have professional football like America does. Sure some Korean schools have high school football but it's not a career or the real thing. We moved to New York first because we wanted a feel for the city life in America. Then, after that, we travelled down to Pennsylvania and got accepted into college. Jeongguk managed to actually get himself a scholarship to PennState so I applied there so we wouldn't be apart."

Jimin wished he knew where these states were actually located so he understood better but he just nodded anyways.

"Then, just about four years of that, he got drafted to the Carolina Panthers as a backup quarterback so we moved again but this time, we moved down to North Carolina. He gets to be the starting quarterback now because the other one got injured." Jungkook informed. He tried to not answer the original question, wanting to distract Jimin in a sense. "And, with me, I got my bachelor's degree in animating."

"Is that on the West coast?" Jimin asked. "New York and . . . The other two you said?"

"No, it's on the East coast. West is where California is." Jungkook breathily chuckled, thinking it was funny almost. It was just too cute to not be funny. He lived in America for four years and everyone assumed he knew all fifty states and every English song that plays.

"Oh, Hollywood and whatnot, right?" Jimin inquired.

"Yeah, Hollywood is in California. Glad you know something." Jungkook teased.

"I'm not an idiot. I know New York, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington." Jimin retorted.

"Great, you just need forty-five more."
