"Look at us," Seokjin sighs as he leans back on the reclinable chair in Taehyung's dorm. "Who would have thought?"

"Not me." Taehyung sighs as well, taking in the silence of his living room before touching his ear out of habit.

"Being just the four of us again is nice." Namjoon states as he looks over at Yoongi, who is slightly smiling with his eyes closed. "Who knew Yoongi would come up with this spa day idea?"

"I'd make the most sense since all I ever wanna do is relax."

The four are currently laying on the floor. It was cold outside so Yoongi came up with an idea to grab the three small heaters he had stored in the attic and make a circle of heat in which all three would stay inside of. Then, he suggested Taehyung make his famous vegan muffins, (which were actually quite good) while Namjoon made his famous hot chocolate—probably the only thing he could make without setting the house on fire. Seokjin then prepared each seat with extra blankets and pillows for comfortability while Yoongi had taken out his mother's old nail kit and hand cream. He refused to bring out the foot cream; he did not want to deal with his friend's feet.

"Can I get my hand massage now Yoongi hyung?"

Yoongi sighs, taking the last sip of his hot chocolate before standing up. "Alright, but don't complain if I decide to crack your knuckles."

Taehyung laughs, thinking it was a joke as he grabs onto his ear again.

Namjoon bites his lip as he looks at Seokjin, unsure if he should ask Yoongi how he knew all this. It was as if the eldest read his mind when spoke up, "Yoongi-ah... how do you know all this? Doing nails and massages?"

Yoongi shrugged as he squirted a bit of the hand cream on his hand. "Watching my mom do it, having it done to me. Monkey see, monkey can learn other than just do."

"I thought your mom was a lawyer." Namjoon says as he looks at his nails. He didn't want attention so he chose a clear coat.

"Yeah, but she insisted my brother and I took care of ourselves." He started massaging Taehyung's hands as the youngest had a stupid smile on his face. He really liked his peach colored nails. "Every month, we'd sit in the attic while my dad played the piano and she'd do our nails." He chuckles softly, a smile settling on his face. "Guess they sort of knew I'd be a little gay since I always wanted my nails colored."

Taehyung bites the inside of his cheek before speaking up, "Did they know you were bi?"

Yoongi shook his head, "Not from me. Maybe they suspected it, but I never came out to them. I didn't think there was any need for that."

"Do you plan on telling them?" Namjoon asks to which he earns a laugh from Yoongi. "I know they've passed but... don't you ever visit their graves?"

At the silence, Seokjin looks up from his sparkly, pink nails, gasping. "Were you even there for the burial?"

At that, Yoongi cracks one of Taehyung's knuckles. "Of course I was."

"Ow!!" Taehyung takes his hand back. "Hyung~ You know I hate cracking my knuckles."

Yoongi chuckles before Namjoon stands up, hearing the timer of the oven going off. "You should visit them hyung, let yours feelings out like how you've done with us. With Jimin."

Yoongi smiles at the thought of his boyfriend and reminds himself that he needs to call him later tonight as he is off on his trip. "I don't think I'm ready for that just yet."

"I think you are." Taehyung smiles. "Everything that has been happening and how you've handled it, I think you just don't want to take a step forward."

Seokjin nods as Yoongi looks at him, the younger shrugging as he cracks another one of Taehyung's knuckles. "OW!! Why do you keep doing th—"

"Enough about me. What are you hiding from us Taehyung?"

Taehyung immediately takes his hands away from Yoongi as the older goes to the kitchen to help Namjoon with the muffins, grabbing onto his ear again. "I'm not hiding anything."

"Yeah you are. You have a habit of grabbing onto your ear when you have a secret." Yoongi makes sure to keep his blue nails intact as he helps Namjoon.

Seokjin watches as Taehyung stops himself from touching his ear yet again. "Why are you keeping things from us?"

Taehyung looks around at his friends and sighs as he looks down. "I just... wanted to make sure things were serious before I told you guys. You're my only family and I really look up to your approval"

"What are you talking about?" Namjoon asks as he's about to grab a muffin but Yoongi slaps his hand.

"Me and Jungkook are dating."

Seokjin rejoices as he stands up immediately, "Are you serious?! That's great!"

Namjoon smiles but he notices the concerned look on Yoongi's face.

That must be what Jungkook is hiding from Jimin. Should I tell him?
