Yoongi's ears flick towards the sound of a spray paint can being shaken, but he keeps his focus on the street outside of the alleyway.

"I can't believe Jimin ditched us." He spoke quietly.

"He didn't really ditch us." Namjoon responded. "You have to show up to ditch someone, he stood us up."

"Smartass." Yoongi chuckles a bit. "So what's his excuse this time?"

"I don't know, something about a hot date."

"With who?"

"Who else? You live with him, I figured you'd know." Namjoon grins.

Yoongi looks over at him, wide eyed. "Taehyung? Oh god, please tell me your roommate isn't screwing my roommate, I just cleaned the apartment."

"Wish I could say he's not but I've walked in on them." Namjoon deadpans.

Yoongi lashes his tail in annoyance. "Gross. They're cleaning the apartment tomorrow."

"Don't be too hard on them." Namjoon smiles. "They're kinda cute together... ya know, when you don't walk in on them fucking."

The two burst into a fit of laughter. Namjoon goes back to spraying the wall and Yoongi readjusts himself on his perch on the (kind of pointless) half wall that connected to the alley. From this spot, he was able to hear and for the post part see if someone was coming down the road. He was also able to watch Namjoon too, which was definately not what he was supposed to be doing, and yet there he was.

He couldn't help but smile as he looked down at him. The two had been friends for a while now, they met back in university, mostly because of their mutual friend, Seokjin, insisting they all hang out sometime, and then pushing them to find some sort of common ground after realising that the two didn't get along great at first. Yoongi reminded himself to thank him for that later, but at the same time he felt like cursing him because somehow he went from butting heads with Namjoon to having a major crush on him. He kept telling himself it would pass eventually, but it never did really, Yoongi had just managed to hide it very well. But it was moments like this he stole for himself, where he'd sit quietly and admire the younger.

Namjoon pauses and looks up at the cat hybrid, causing Yoongi to panic for a moment as he quickly looked away. "Did you hear that?"

Yoongi flicks his ears towards the road to listen. A car? Maybe. He slowly peaked his head around the corner of the building, sure enough there was a cop car rounding the corner.

"Oh shit, we gotta run." Yoongi hisses and jumps down. He threw a few of the spray paint cans into his bag and took off, Namjoon following quickly behind. "Where?"

Namjoon glanced behind them, no one was following them, but there was no point in going back, it was starting to get late. "I don't know... Home?"

Yoongi nods. "Yeah, but I don't think I wanna go home right now, no telling what I'd walk into."

"We can just go back to my apartment,   wouldn't have to be scarred for life by whatevers going down in yours right?" Namjoon suggests with a laugh.

"Yeah, alright, let's go."

Yoongi drops his bag and shoes at the door before flopping onto the couch with a loud sigh. "Couch, I'll never leave you."

"You'd immediately leave that couch of you knew what I saw on it the other night." Namjoon makes a face and laughs.

Yoongi groans and sits up. "Gross. But I don't feel like moving."

Namjoon plops down next to him and turned the TV on. "Anything in particular you want to watch?"

"Whatever's fine." Yoongi shrugs, draping his tail over his lap and getting comfortable. They settled on a random TV show just for background noise, not really interested in anything on right now. Both of them were on their phones anyways.

They'd been back at the apartment for a few hours now, it was getting very late and very obvious that Yoongi shifted, feeling a pair of eyes on him but when he looked up Namjoon was still busy on his phone and no one else was in the apartment. He put his phone down and turned his attention the the TV, twisting his fingers into the fur of his tail as he once again felt like someone was looking at him. This time he caught Namjoon, who simply smiled at him.

"It's getting late," Suddenly his phone went off and he paused to read the message. "Well I guess Jimin isn't coming back tonight." He says

Yoongi huffs and flops his head back on the arm of the chair. "Lovely."

Namjoon laughs and shakes his head. "Don't worry hyung, you can stay here."

"Okay, yeah thanks." Yoongi smiled a bit, his hands going back to the fur on tail. "Ya know, as much as I like my apartment, it's nice to spend a bit more time here, plus it's rarely ever just us two anymore."

Namjoon smiled at him. "Yeah, guess we got lucky that Jimin ditched us huh?" He laughed. "Are you okay, hyung?"

Yoongi tilted his head, slightly confused.

"You only do that when you get nervous over something or are thinking too hard." He motioned towards Yoongi's tail where his fingers were tangled in his fur

Yoongi quickly swatted his tail away, curling it around one of his legs instead. "No I'm fine." He smiled and went quiet for a moment before adding, "I guess I was a bit lost in thought."

Namjoon shifted around a bit, giving Yoongi his full attention. "Is something wrong?"

"No..? No." The elder shook his head.

Namjoon hummed in response. He couldn't help but smile at Yoongi, looking a little flustered, but why? He chose to ignore it, and rather than push any further they went back to watching TV.

After about an hour Yoongi was dozing off, half hanging off the arm of the couch. Namjoon smiled and poked at one of his ears.

"Hey, let's go to bed, you can't be comfortable like that." He mumbled.

Yoongi made a noise and flicked his ear. "Too tired. 'm fine here."

"Yah, get up come on." Namjoon huffed.

Yoongi rolled over and yawned. "Told you 'm fine."

Namjoon sighed and got up. "Guess we're doing this the hard way." He easily picked the cat hybrid up and carried him down the hall.

"Stubborn." Yoongi grumbled.

"And you aren't?" The younger laughed as he put Yoongi down. The elder didn't respond as he crawls into the opposite side of the bed and yawned again.

"Goodnight hyung." Namjoon mumbled, as he got comfortable.

Yoongi mumbled something that sounded like a response and was out within minutes.
