This one's kinda weird and it has a lot of perspective changes but I like it soooo

(What Am I To You?)

Something weird was going on between Taehyung and Jimin. Hoseok thought they might have fallen out but it seemed unlikely that they would keep it to themselves; it was a given for any disputes to be shared with everyone so it could be sorted out quickly. It was odd, too, because they had seemed closer than ever recently with their constant whispering and playing together the past few weeks. But the '95-line was going through some troubles and Hoseok couldn't figure it out.

He shared his concerns with Namjoon because let's face it, everyone shares everything with Namjoon. He was the best leader in the world. As it turned out, he had noticed something was off as well. Neither could think of anything that could have happened and it was starting to get to them. They told Jungkook as well. His best friends were fighting and he looked alone. He didn't know anything either and the three of them groaned and continued to speculate randomly.

Seokjin made dinner. Namjoon, Jungkook and Hoseok had all agreed just to watch, not to force them to talk to each other, but to see if they'd do it themselves. They didn't. Taehyung sat at one end of the table and Jimin sat a few seats away. They weren't opposite or next to each other and it looked so meticulously planned that Hoseok wondered if it was just a prank. The conversation was normal and weird as usual and, although Taehyung and Jimin chipped in now and again, they never spoke directly to each other.

In all honesty, Hoseok faded out of the conversation. He was worried. He didn't want there to be an argument because arguments stressed him the fuck out. He got so paranoid that everything would be ruined and they would split up and they wouldn't make it to their comeback. It scared him. Then something dragged him back to the conversation. Maybe it was his future self telling him to concentrate because he focused back in at the exact right time. He had skipped the earlier conversation, so he didn't know how it got to Jimin saying,

"Oh my God, yes, I love Girl's Generation!" A strange line to come back in on but a valid statement. Then something strange happened.

"Sorry, what was that, Jimin?" Taehyung asked quietly. Hoseok watched in surprise as they seemed to talk with their eyes; Taehyung's a picture of passive-aggression and Jimin's looking both angry and pleading at the same time. "No, really, I didn't hear you." Jimin looked around the table, realising that he couldn't dodge and he had to answer. More subdued than before, he repeated,

"I said I love Girl's Generation." Taehyung looked down at his food again.

"Thank you, that was all I needed." Everyone was silent, sensing that there was more to come. "It's nice to know that you have the ability to love someone." Jimin threw down his chopsticks, trying to hold back anger. Taehyung looked at him with innocence. "What? I think it's good that you can admit that you love people you don't even know." The other five looked among themselves, silently vowing not to get involved. Jimin smiled fakely at Taehyung.

"I'll have you know that Girl's Generation have done a lot for me, you know. Helping me, supporting me, getting me through tough times. That's why I love them. It's such a lovable thing about them. It makes it so easy to love them," he responded. Taehyung's eyes flared with anger.

"Oh, wow, it's so strange how they could tell that you were struggling since you didn't even tell them or anything. It's so strange because no one has telepathy, Jimin." Jimin slammed the table and stood up.

"That's it, I- "

"Jimin, sit the fuck back down," Yoongi interrupted. All eyes flicked to him. He sounded strangely calm against the wave of anger emanating from the other side of the table. Jimin didn't sit down until Yoongi shot him a glare so fierce that Hoseok thought he might set him alight. Jimin sank reluctantly back to his seat. "Taehyung, you can stop smirking, too. You were nowhere close to winning that. Now either have a civil dinner and shut up or we can go to your room and settle this like adults." Hoseok had no idea what the hell was going on and he was more scared than ever. Taehyung rolled his eyes.

"Unless 'settling things like adults' includes beating someone up, there is no way either of those things is happening." Jimin scoffed.

"Speak for yourself, Tae. I'm all for talking this out but it seems that you need to grow up a bit more."

"Excuse me? How am I the one that needs to grow up here?"

"You just threatened to beat me up!"

"Who said anything about you? You think that you're always at the front of my mind but other people do exist, you know! It's not just you in this world and I'm not entirely sure you knew that!"

"You barely acknowledge my existence, anyway!"

"You barely acknowledge anyone else's!"

"You are the worst! You're so unsupportive and oblivious! I don't know how I ever thought I loved you!"

"YOU NEVER LOVED ME!" Taehyung yelled at full volume. His voice cracked, he kicked his chair backwards and shot to his feet. He was very visibly crying. The others could do nothing but watch, like some horror film that they were being forced to sit through. Hoseok was holding his breath subconsciously. He needed answers but couldn't bring himself to ask. Jimin also stood up and Hoseok saw that he was crying as well. Yoongi objected,

"Whoa, okay, I think we just need to- "

"SHUT UP, YOONGI!" Both arguing boys shouted as one. Jimin swiped a hand across his face in a desperate attempt to clear up his tears.

"Tae, how could you ever say that?! I stayed with you, I needed you but you gave me nothing in return! Nothing!"

"Nothing?! I don't remember the last time I slept in my own bed! I know that I'm nothing to you, I know I'm just a fuck to you! But you really didn't have to tell everyone! Was it so hard just to let me dream that I meant something?"

"Yes! Because you don't mean something, you mean everything to me!"

"Yeah, right. After all of that, I bet you still can't say it." Jimin stayed silent. "See? I mean the world to you and you'd give me everything except three fucking words that don't even have to be true at this point! What are you so afraid of? We just yelled our relationship problems to the entire goddamn world and you still can't tell me you love me!" Jimin choked on his own breath and didn't reply. Yoongi spoke up again.

"For God's sake, Jimin, just do it already. I know it's not time yet but do you really think you have a choice anymore?" Jimin seemed to be the only one who understood and reached into his back pocket. He pulled out a small black box that he handled anxiously. He swallowed hard and took a deep breath.

"A year ago tomorrow, we were walking through town and we walked past a shop. You looked through a window and you saw something. You told me, 'Someday, Jimin, someone will love me enough to come here. Someone will- "

"' Someone will buy that with me in mind. And I will love them back enough to not care about something as stupid as a price tag. I will only care about them,'" Taehyung finished for him. Jimin smiled slightly.

"It started to rain really heavily."

"I gave you my jacket."

"We had to shelter in some random shop."

"They kicked us out for being too wet."

"I realised that I wanted to buy that for you. I wanted to be the one that you loved enough to disregard everything else. I realised that I loved you. I realised that I would love you and only you forever. I love you. I promise. Until the end." He held out the box to Taehyung who looked at it before carefully taking it in his hands. He didn't open it. He just looked at Jimin and the box in shock and anticipation. For ages.

"Oh. My. God. Taehyung. Open the goddamn box," Seokjin demanded, staring at the scene like it was a real-life k-drama. Taehyung and Jimin laughed a little and they were both still crying. Taehyung opened the box and smiled as if he already knew what was inside.

"Until the end," he whispered. He lifted out the most beautiful, delicate bracelet that Hoseok had ever seen. It was a glittering, silver mesh chain that looked like it was encrusted with diamonds. The clasp was the prettiest blue gem, the December birthstone. It looked like it had black writing around the shimmering outline of the clasp. Hoseok couldn't read it, but he assumed it read, Until the end.

Jimin stepped forward and wrapped it around Taehyung's wrist, securing it in place. They looked at each other, eyes filled with tears and love. Taehyung leaned in and kissed Jimin softly and passionately. Jimin wrapped his arms around Taehyung's neck and the other five applauded and whooped enthusiastically, making them laugh and break the kiss. They wiped away their residual tears and everyone took a beat to compose themselves.

"Well," Namjoon sighed, "That was… I'm gonna go with emotional."

"Can we get an explanation up in here?" Jungkook was only crying a little bit but he was still confused. Yoongi sat back.

"I take full responsibility for fixing that," Yoongi stated and everyone else disagreed emphatically, without even knowing what just happened. "Settle down, kids, and let me tell you a story."

Jimin came into my room without knocking and lay face down on my bed. Okay.

"Um… Jiminie, you good?" Jimin rolled over, smiling widely.

"Hyung, I'm in love," he replied, dreamily. So he had chosen me to listen to him fawn over some pretty stranger he had seen on the street. Nothing he hadn't done before. Jimin fell in love a lot.

"Who is it now?" I asked. Jimin sat up and looked at me with a deadly serious gaze.

"No, hyung, I'm really in love. I can't stop thinking about him. I need help." The one time Jimin actually falls in love and he doesn't even want it. Perfect. "I can't sleep, I can't eat, I can't live around him. I love him so much and it hurts."

"Whoa, Jimin, who did this to you?" Jimin had complained about love to me before but never like this. This time was serious. He rolled over again but I had already seen him blush. He mumbled something into the mattress. "What?" He flopped onto his back.

"Taehyung." Well then.

"Our Taehyung? As in Kim Taehyung? The one we live with? And perform with? And see every day? That Taehyung?" Jimin rolled his eyes.

"Don't remind me." I begged him to confess. It would be so much better that way but he wouldn't listen. I knew he was scared and I didn't blame him. It took him half a year. 6 months. And he finally confessed. And it totally worked. He told me that Taehyung didn't really know what to do since they were idols and couldn't date. They stayed secretly crushing on each other for two more months and just took comfort in the fact that they liked each other.

Remember that night we all got drunk? They hooked up for the first time. I won't go into detail like Jimin did, because honestly, dude, too much information. But then they decided to be together. Still in secret, but together at least.

Then they had a fight (Yoongi I'll take it from here). Take it away, Jimin.

We were lying in bed one morning a few weeks ago. It was about 6 am because of secrecy and all that jazz. We were just lying together because it was nice and comfortable and warm.

"I want us to come out," Taehyung said. That was a hard pass from me. I had too much going on to deal with you guys judging us for a relationship that didn't even change us. My sexuality is… confused so I don't even know what the fuck's going on in my head at the moment (You're Taesexual). Shut up, Seokjin. I said no and laughed it off, but he was serious. And he kept bringing it up when he knew I wouldn't go with it. I refused for the hundredth time and he suddenly said,

"But I love you. I love you and I don't want to hide anymore. I love you." I didn't reply. Of course, I loved him. I admitted that to Yoongi months and months ago. But it felt like a big step. It felt so real and I didn't know if I was ready for real. So I didn't say anything. Obviously, not a great move. (No, no it wasn't). Tae, I love you (You'd better). Wow, okay. Anyway, he got mad and stormed out and didn't speak to me for the whole day. He still slept in my bed, but he didn't say anything. I was annoyed at him for it. This was my decision; he couldn't force me to say or do anything I wasn't comfortable with. So we just stayed mad at each other and only Yoongi knew anything.

Then I walked through town and I passed that shop and I remembered that I loved him so, so much (Love you, too). I went in and I bought the bracelet. I was going to wait and give it to you tomorrow so it would be like an anniversary thing. But things… escalated, shall we say? So, that's it. That's the story.

Hoseok genuinely nearly squealed and he could tell that the others felt the same way.

"Oh my God, that's so cute! We were so worried about you since you weren't talking so we guessed something was up," he burst out. Taehyung and Jimin just smiled at him and everyone smiled back.

He was happy that no one was dead or crying or fighting. Everything was happy. As it should be.
