"Love isn’t proud. Sometimes, you have to put away your pride for the sake of love. But those times, with the right person, are completely worth it."

"Aahhww... I treasure our friendship as well!" Yoongi looked taken aback before he awkwardly smiled and scrunched his nose. "I need some more wine." Yoongi stood up, patting Hoseok's thigh before going inside.

"Wow you're stupid." Hoseok snapped his head to the side. "Do I know you?" Hoseok asked the boy standing in front of him. "No, but what I do know is that you're oblivious."

"Huh?"

"Whoever that was..." The boy pointed to the door. "Likes you, romantically." Hoseok chuckled before leaning back. "Who? Yoongi? Noooo..." The boy gave Hoseok an unamused look. "Test it if you don't believe me." A challenge, Hoseok doesn't like getting challenged. "Fine, I will. To prove that you're wrong." Hoseok smiled. "Have a goodnight!" Hoseok walked inside to find Yoongi. "I'm not oblivious. I know about love. I had a girlfriend for 2 days in middle school." Hoseok mumbled under his breath before stopping in his tracks. "....I don't know shit about love."

Jungkook walked away from the winepong, he played even longer than Namjoon who had left the table a while ago. Jungkook obviously came out victorious so he was just a little tipsy. He lifted the mask from his face and wiped the stray hairs out of his face. He walked into the direction of the bedrooms, before just simply leaning against the wall.

A very familiar face walked out of the bathroom, Willy Wonka. "Oops, if I knew you were waiting for the toilet I would've hurried up with fixing my hat." Seokjin proudly tapped his hat. "No no, I'm just standing here." Seokjin nodded standing in front of Jungkook and touched his arm. "Are you okay?" He reached out and touched Jungkook's forehead. "You're getting a little hot. Well, we're at a party so maybe that's i-"

"Jin." Jungkook cut off Seokjin's rambling. "Yes?" He looked at Jungkook who didn't really look like his usual self... Well that could be his costume but something seemed off about him. "I'm sorry." Seokjin looked puzzled. "Sorry? Sorry about what? Were you the one that broke my hat? Or is it a delayed one? Oh! You must've been the one that broke my art project, I know that sucker didn't explode like that in the oven. You know Kookie, how awful it is- I forgive y-"

Jungkook reached for his hair in frustration, averting his gaze from Seokjin. "Wow! It must be really serious what you broke. As long as you pay for it, it's quite fine by me. I won't hold a grudge, okay maybe a little but-" Jungkook grabbed Seokjin's collar and smashed their lips together and his shaking hands reached for his face. Before Seokjin could do anything Jungkook had pulled away and quickly left the scene. Seokjin stared at Jungkook's back that was slowly getting smaller and smaller.

Seokjin touched his lip, still frozen in place. "You're... sorry?" He spoke to himself before looking around and quickly gathering himself again.

"Jimin!" Jimin turned to look who's calling him before he smiled. "Hey Hobi, what is it?"

"How do you know if someone likes you?" Jimin thought about it before answering. "They flirt with you!"

"But what if they never flirted, what if they just confessed?" Jimin tapped his cheek. "Well if they confessed then yes- Hobi who are we talking about?"

"Hypothetically." Hoseok smiled but Jimin wasn't buying any of it. "Hobi who confessed to you? Do I know him?"

"...No." Jimin sighed, pulling Hoseok along with him. "We know the exact same people, if you say I don't know him that must mean that he is in one of your inner circles of friends."

"No no."

"Hobi do you like him?"

"...I never thought of him that way." Hoseok fumbled with his fingers. "Think about him now. Envision him in front of you." Hoseok did what he was told. "What do you want from him?" Hoseok looked at Jimin weirdly. "How is that supposed to help?"

"Hobi who is it?"

"Not telling."

"Hobi."

"Nuh-uh." Hoseok turned away from Jimin only for him to reappear in his field of vision. "Considering you want to protect his identity that means that you like him too or that he is even closer than I thought." Hoseok glared Jimin down before turning away again. "Oh my god! It's both!"

"I do not!"

"So he is close to us ah-hah!" Hoseok grunted before grabbing Jimin's shoulders. "I don't know what to do! I don't know if I like him Jimin."

"Find out."

"Huh?"

"Yeah! Just, like, hold him close, flirt a little." Hoseok did not seem amused one bit by that advice. "Just try!"

"I don't want to give him false hope!"

"If you don't feel anything just be honest with him! Everyone knows that feelings are strange."

"Amen." Hoseok and Jimin jumped before they spotted Seokjin sitting in the chair right next to them, sipping his wine. "Well now I can exclude Jin from the equation. 4 left. Namjoon is a flirt so he can be removed. Taehyung has been busy cozying up with catsuit lady so he is a goner as well... So it's Jungk-"

"Nope." Seokjin affirmed before taking a sip again. "Then it is... Oh my god it's Yoo-" Hoseok smacked his hand on Jimin's mouth. "Ssshhhh."

Jimin removed Hoseok's hand and made little excited jumps "That's so cute, oh my god. I ship it."
