"They told me that he's still in pain, although we don't know what he might be feeling after he gets the surgery. I hope he gets better, I'm honestly really worried." Jimin spoke with an anxious tone as he put his glass of water down on the counter. He was alone in the hotel room with Hoseok and was having a more or less lively conversation with him.
"He'll be fine, let's hope for the best and not be too pessimistic." Responded Hoseok, truth be told, in spite of his brave response he was quite worried as well. Guilt, anxiety and uneasiness never seem to've left him, not even whilst he was asleep, these things ate him away. These feelings drove him crazy and made him want to shout at the top of his lungs.
"Did you hear about the gathering at the opera house? Namjoon was going to drag us there. I refused since I'll be staying with Jin and Jungkook'll be too. You should go though." An agitated and also astonished type of look embarked on Hoseok's face as the realisation that he couldn't be with Jin and the others came down upon him.
"What? No way, I'll be staying with you guys, you can't make me g-"
"Jin suggested. He said to Namjoon to make sure to take you, you seem really stressed nowadays so I guess you do need a break. The gathering's in a week." Clenching the end of the couch with his mouth zipped, Hoseok couldn't help but take this into consideration since it was suggested by Jin himself, but still.
He wanted to be there by Jin's side, he wanted to be there to hear his dad jokes and to laugh with him. He wanted to sleep by his bedside and sooth him and hold his hand. He wanted to cheer Jin up and make him happy, but his intentions were going down the drain now.
"It's unfair. I really do want to be with him at the moment."
Moving forward, Jimin went ahead and took hold of Hoseok's hand gently, placing it on his own. This small action seemed to have released the tension inside of him and with each passing second of comfortable silence, Hoseok's apprehension diminished and so did the worried look on his face.
"It'll be fine, just trust me." That contagious smile, that smile that even made his eyes turn into two manifestations of glow and happiness. Jimin's smile was truly beautiful and the other couldn't resist smiling himself when he saw this course of action.
"I do." ---------------------------------------------- "So, why exactly are we here?" Hoseok questioned, almost in an obligated way since he very well knew the reason, his right hand cletching a paper bag with the logo of Charles and Keith.
"Because you have to attend a gathering in about two days and you literally have nothing good to wear. I'm not much of an expert in fashion but I'm sure that I could help you out in some way, we need to get you out of those red t-shirts and loose shorts." Rolling his eyes, Jimin answered him as he searched through the countless suits to find a perfect one.
"What're you guys doing here?" The duo looked forward to see the man in front of them, the younger particularly annoyed. It was Taehyung, in front of them, with several paper bags that mostly were from Gucci.
Honestly, it seemed that Taehyung was almost everywhere Hoseok was, not that it mattered much, but at some points it would seem almost absurd. He always appeared, at the exact correct time. It was suspiciously accurate and perfect.
"Tch. Taehyung, what're you doing here?" Jimin asked in a dull tone, not quite pleased with the random appearance of the man, considering the fact he particulary didn't like the blonde who was almost as old as him.
"Shopping of course, the same as you."
"Touchy." Without paying further attention to him, Jimin continued to scout for the perfect piece of clothing.
"It's nice to see you here."
"Are you going to the gathering too?"
"How'd you know?"
"Kinda guessed, Namjoon told me that he was going so I assumed you'd come too. Is Mr Attitude going as well?" Taehyung slyly pointed toward the frustrated individual who didn't pay much heed to anything else, Hoseok shook his head sideways, upset that he wouldn't have Jimin with him, it'd be a hell lotta better if the two were together.
"Well, anyways. If you're searching for clothes, you've come across the perfect man, my friend." In utter silence, after whispering these few words, Taehyung grabbed Hoseok's hand and quickly walked out of the shop and away from it, much to the confusion of the other. Whilst Jimin was completely lost in his activity and did not even notice the disappearance of the two as he got engaged in a conversation with the shop guy, who was showing him different types of formal shirts.
Shaking his arm off furiously, Hoseok gave Taehyung that 'holy jesus you did not just do that' look. Taehyung, however, smiled widely, and grabbed Hoseok's hand once again and started walking happily, in a way a little kid would walk.
"Taehyung, what do you think you're doing?"
"Well, helping you."
Hoseok raised his left eyebrow, both in confusion and sort of annoyance, he couldn't bear the thought of leaving Jimin by himself.
"In what exactly?"
"I doubt Mr Attitude there has a good taste in clothes. I, good sir, will help you out as much as possible and make sure you look even more magnificent than usual, if that's even possible." Taehyung spoke in a very fake posh accent, to which Hoseok just blurted out some random words and started laughing, a little.
"I'm certain you have a really good taste in clothes but I want to tell you two things. First, he has a name. Jimin. Second, I can't just leave him like that. Why not go with him?"
"I'd rather stick with Mr Attitude, it suits him more." Ignore Hoseok's struggles and mentions of Jimin, Taehyung kept on walking and did not let go of Hoseok's hand for a second, sort of forcing him into staying with him, though eventually he gave in and quietly mumbled out an apology to a certain someone.
"I'm sorry, Jiminie." ---------------------------------------------- "Well, that sure looks very nice."
"Yes, sir, I'm sure this'll look very decent and sophisticated."
"Uh, yes. Those words. Alright then, how about you-"
Jimin turned out, only to be met with the neighbouring wall and complete silence.
"Eh... Hobi?" ---------------------------------------------- This was sort of a filler chapter, because like, all characters need some break from this drama. Let's have some Jihope!
