It was at this moment the students started pouring in the hallway from classrooms and lunch rooms. Hoseok rolled his eyes, pulling Yoongi across the hallway and into the Janitor's Room.

"Why are we here?"  Yoongi turns the light on, squinting at the brightness.

"I need to ask you something, and you're gonna answer."  Hoseok demands.

Yoongi wanted to scream, the fact that Hoseok demanded answers without actually giving any answers himself, pissed him off completely.
Hoseok took Yoongi's silence as a sign to ask the questions.

"Why are you so close to that kid?" He sounds almost mad, his face showing blatant signs of annoyance.

"That kid? Who are you talking abo-"

"That kid that's always around you, in the hallways, on breaks, at lunch... Why are you so close to him?" Hoseok pressures further.

"Taehyung? That's my best friend. Has been for years now... Wait, why do you care?" the elder's brows sink down into a scowl.

"I don't like him."

"I don't care. He's my friend, not yours. You don't need to like him." Yoongi stops himself from stomping his foot, instead stands straight.

"I want you to stop being friends with him," the younger barks out, as if it were the most normal thing ever. Silence fills the room.

"I beg your pardon?" Yoongi dumbfoundedly blurts.

"I want you to stop being friends with him," he repeats.

"You know what? I should stop being friends with you." the shorter one snaps, blood boiling under his skin.

"Don't fuck around, Kitten," Hoseok threatens again, voice intimidating.

"Seriously, what the fuck? Why are you like this? You've never even shown affection towards me, and now, a week later, you come around acting like this big, bad, sadistic man who seems to think he owns me. Where is all of this coming from?"

Hoseok seems confused at himself as well, his eyebrows furrow and lips slightly part as he zones out.

Where was it coming from? Why was he acting like this? Something inside him snapped when Yoongi payed him no mind for a week. The fact that he was so close to Taehyung and not to him. He could manage when he showed attention to him as well, but when he was being ignored and avoided, a switch seemed to be— flipped.

With a sigh, Hoseok sits down next to the many toolboxes on the floor, resting his head on the wall. He waves Yoongi over and he hesitates before joining the taller boy on the cold floor.

"Honestly?" Hoseok speaks timidly. Yoongi hummed in response, urging him to continue.
"I have zero idea, seriously. I don't know why I was so hell bent to get your attention. I don't know why I need you close... I don't know what it is about you that gives me so much comfort and a feeling of safety. I guess it just felt nice... to have someone genuinely pay attention to me because of me."

Yoongi's cheeks are burning up at his words, a small inaudible gasp leaving his lips when Hoseok leans over to lay his head on the smaller boy's shoulder.

But there's still one question unanswered.

"Then why did you say that about Tae?" Yoongi lifts an eyebrow, looking down to meet Hoseok's eyes.

"Oh, that still stands. I still don't like him and I don't want him around you so much, if at all." still dodging to answer the question, Hoseok expected the push from Yoongi.

"Not that that will ever fucking happen, but why?"

"He's too close. Way too close, closer than I am, and I do not like it," his arm drapes across Yoongi's thighs, causing the older to nearly choke on air.

"He's my friend. The one person that never left my side, I went through the absolute worst and best with him, and you think I'd give him up because some guy wants me to?" Yoongi pushes Hoseok's arm away.

"'Some guy' really? That's all I am to you? Just a non important person? Do I mean so little to you?!" Hoseok says, clenching his fists to contain himself.

"Look, I don't know what you are to me, I don't know what to do around you, I don't know what to think about you. Because who the hell do you want?! You talk all this shit about wanting me and needing me, and you make me flustered, but then you go to your girlfriend and kiss her, tell her you love her, how much you want her! Then you proceed to get upset when I say things I mean! I don't know what I want, because what the hell do you want?!" Yoongi's voice raises gradually as he rants on, blood at a quiet simmer. He is ready to explode.

Hoseok stays silent. He doesn't know what to say because, well, Yoongi is right... He did do all of those things, and he isn't sure what he wants either.

Hoseok stands up and tries walking out, but Yoongi quickly catches his arm.

"Oh, fuck no. You're not going anywhere, Hoseok. You either say it now or you shut the fuck up and never talk to me again." 

Hoseok still doesn't answer, not knowing how to. He was sure that he loved his girlfriend, he has loved her for months now... but he never felt with her like he did with Yoongi. Yeah, she was nice, but she never gave Hoseok the genuine affection like Yoongi did. She always cared more about herself than him, in every aspect. Even on his birthday she asked him what he was gonna get her.

The silence stretches for a few more minutes before Yoongi breaks it again.

"Well, there's my answer. Bye."
