Suga's POV

*knock* *knock*

"Coming in."

Opening the door softly, I entered Hoseok's music studio. Sitting in front of the computer was Hoseok, typing lyrics crazily on the keyboard. "Take a seat hyung," he said while turning around to welcome me.

Sitting lightly on the sofa, I rested my elbows on my knees and intertwined my fingers. Pretending to look around, I commented, "Hmmm your studio looks quite neat."

"Mwo yah hyung! You're being weird."

"Am I?"

"Ne!! Usually you will be the one ordering me to go to your studio so why today..."

"Aniyo, just feel like finding you today..."

"Get straight to the point hyung," he chuckled.

"Okay, since you insist. You know, you are Bangtan's idea bank and usually you produce lots of ingenious ideas..."

"Uh huh..."

"Do you...by any chance...know how to see if two people are still in love?"

"NE?!?! Me?? The most not experienced guy in Bangtan when it comes to love? Why didn't you asked Jin hyung or Namjoon instead?"

"Well...I would like too, but sadly, they're on a date right now. Anyway, getting back to the topic, so...do you?"

Hoseok instantly became serious, as he stared at me with a expressionless face, "is it...gonna do with Kookie and Jiminie?"

"A-aniyo..." my voice trailed off.

"Don't lie hyung, you suck at that."

"Fine. B-but even...you know about it?" 

"Yea, probably everyone in Bangtan knows it."

"Urghh damn it, I thought I could have it under control."

"Yah...it's not your fault hyung."

"It's not theirs' too. You can't blame them for falling in love with each other."

"But not when he have such awesome boyfriend like you hyung. Anyway, till now, you still think that Jiminie have feelings for Kookie?"

"Err...I don't know too, that's why I need your help to prove it. Any nice ideas?"

"I got one," he smirked and gave me a wink.

Jungkook's POV

"Oh no, I'm late!! Ettokae!!" I rushed out of my room with my hair half-dried.

"Wae yo Kookie? Where are you going?" Mama Jin shouted from the kitchen.

"Erm...I'm gonna meet Suga hyung. He said he is buying me lamb skewers for dinner."

"WHAT?!? He only invited you??"

"Ne!! Anyway, aren't we the only ones who like to eat that?"

"Hey! I eat everything okayyyy!" Jin insisted, but I had ran out of the house first second before.

Ever since the hotel incident, followed by me cutting off ties with Jimin hyung, things had gone pretty awkward between me and Yoongi hyung. We seem okay together in the group but once we are left alone, the awkwardness is stronger than Jin hyung I swear.

I was initially shocked when he asked me on a date on a random day. It was indeed out of the blue but I guess, he too, wanted to break the ice between us...because in the past, we used to be the closest.

Stepping into the restaurant, I immediately spotted Suga hyung. I waved to him to indicate my arrival when I saw someone sitting beside him.

It was Jimin hyung.

Snap! What is he doing here? Didn't hyung said it will be only the two of us? My feet stood rooted to the ground and my heart stopped beating for a moment.

Questions began to pop in my mind, like - should I walk out? should I pretend that I have a stomach ache and skip this dinner? or should I just endure this and eat my long-anticipated lamb skewer?

I took one step backwards, but too late, both hyungs already noticed my presence and running away only makes me look even more suspicious.

Inhaling a deep breath, I fixed my attire before walking to their table. Knowing my manners, I picked the seat in front of Suga hyung.

"You're here Kookie!" Suga hyung welcomed me, with a smile, friendly enough.

"...Ne hyung, I didn't know you invited somebody else too," I stuttered.

"He's not somebody else. He's your hyung too. He said he was bored so I asked him out too. Are you uncomfortable with that?"

"Huh? Err...no...of course not..." my voice trailed off as the waiter came to take our order.

Okay, so to cut the story short, meal time with disastrous, for me only I guess. Yoongi hyung had to pick the best of time to feed Jimin hyung meat, like Jiminie hyung knows how to use a chopstick for goodness sake. He isn't a baby. I am!! (if you wanna argue) Okay...chill...I'm chill.

And Jimin hyung too! He was staring at Yoongi hyung lovingly for the entire period. Not that I'm jealous or what but was that even necessary? Then why am I here for? Am I just a deco? Or maybe a cameraman reporting their every single moves and skinships...

Yes, I felt uncomfortable, and I probably showed it too obviously. I had totally no mood to touch the pieces of meat on my plate. Even my hands are too weak to hold the chopsticks. The most active part of my body is my eyes - which they kept going up to see what is the couple in front of me up to now.

And always...it doesn't look pleasant at all to me...

Feeding...giggling...helping him to wipe his mouth...we're in public for goodness sake and we are idols!! Not tryna be high up or what but we have an image to maintain!!

Okay fine, no point ranting inside my heart. Inhale...exhale...I'm fine...I'm chill...I'm good...

"Kookie ah, why aren't you eating?" Suga hyung said.

"Erm...I...not feeling very well..."

"Huh not feeling well?" Jimin hyung joined in, "where are you feeling unwell? Are you having a fever or something? Do you need to see a doctor?"

Damn, this hyung is seriously not sensitive. That sudden burst of questions shocked me and Suga hyung too, with him blinking his eyes at me in disbelief.

"Aniyo!!" I tried to salvage the situation, "I'm just...I'm just too full."

"Ahhh I see," Suga hyung replied, "oh well, we are pretty much done too. Let me go to the bathroom before settling the bill. Oh yeah, there's a dessert too. Kookie you should try it, it's pudding."

With that, Suga hyung stood up and grabbed his jacket before walking to the back of the restaurant.

And you know it...awkwarddddddd!!!

After staring at my empty plate for few moment, I unknowingly looked up and dang, we made eye contact. It lasted for a few seconds, and trust me, till now, I still have butterflies in my stomach when he stares at me like that.

Okay...that's not the main point.

I wanted to turn my head away when Jimin hyung said, "Kookie...are you really alright?"

I paused for a while. The 'politically correct' answer is "Yes" and he will not bombard me with other questions. But no, today the golden maknae wants to play tantrum, all thanks to the two hyungs who just acted a lovely couple scene in front of me.

"Aniyo," I uttered.

"Where? Where are you feeling unwell?"

"Here," I pointed to my heart, "I feel betrayed."

"Wae?"

"Did you purposely asked hyung to ask me out and you decided to tag along? Didn't I say that we should limit our interactions?"

"I didn't know he invited you Kookie! Yoongi hyung was the one who asked me out for a date- sorry, for dinner just now. I have totally no idea that he invited you too!!"

"So are you saying that he planned all this?"

"I don't know..."

We went silent for a while. I did not dare to look at hyung, neither did he lift his head up to spare me a look. Yoongi hyung...probably set this up...but...for what?

Inhaling a deep breath, I stood up and said, "I got something on, I need to go now."

"Wait Kookie! Aren't you waiting for the dessert?"

"Aniyo, I don't feel comfortable here."

"Is it...is it because of me?"

I rolled my eyes and let out a mouthful of air. As I lowered my body and went nearer to Jimin hyung, I whispered, "Do you really don't know why Suga hyung planned for the three of us out to have dinner?"

"So that we can be less awkward?"

"Aniyo. He is trying to see if I still have feelings for you."

"Impossible. Didn't we got it settled ages ago?"

"But apparently he doesn't really trust you, and me!"

"Are you serious?"

"I can't take it anymore, I'm leaving."

"Wait Kookie!! Don't go..."

"..."

"Maybe...maybe you're thinking too much, Kookie..."

I shook my head in despair, as I sighed, "Can't you see I have been suffering for the past one hour...trying to treat the couple in front of me transparent and trying my very best to not get jealous? He is trying to see my reaction when the both of you does skinships and from there, he would know if I have feelings for you."

"So the answer is...?"

"I refuse to answer."

"So you still do have feelings for me."

"I'm leaving."

"Wait Kookie, wait! Jungkook!! Jeon Jungkook!!!"

A/N: Hiiii!! I was just wondering am I dragging this story a little too long? I actually planned it to be a 20+ chapters short story but guess who got so into this story!! 

Anyways, I've kinda finished writing the ending for this story, and I promiseeeee it would be good (I hope...) I swear I won't do those "I'll let y'all imagine the desired ending"

JIMIN IS GONNA END UP WITH SOMEONE!!!!!
