yoongi loved everything about traveling. he loved the joy that it brought him, the new memories it gave him, and the plane ride.
yes, yoongi enjoyed the plane ride.
most people believe the plane ride to be the most dreadful part of traveling but yoongi loved it. loved that he got to escape from the stress that his job gave him, loved that he got to break free from his roommate who nagged him constantly, but yoongi loved waking up on the plane just in time to see the sun paint the sky in various reds and oranges the most.
--
the plane was ready for take off. yoongi had already gotten comfortable in his middle seat and was preparing to rest his eyes when he felt unfamiliar hands tapping him.
“ex-excuse me..”
“...can i get through? the window seat is mine.”
yoongi didn't mean to glare at the stranger so intensely but he also didn't feel bad for it. after all, this asshole was disturbing his peace.
yoongi stepped into the aisle and let the passenger by.
“hi! my name is hoseok, nice to meet you.” the passenger said, his voice coming out louder than yoongi had expected.
“shhh. you don't believe in quiet flights?” yoongi replied.
the blonde had a confused look on his face but he soon got the hint that yoongi didn't really like to be bothered during his flights.
--
the plane ride had only begun a hour ago but to hoseok it felt like 10 years.
he was bored out of his mind and contemplated bothering the stranger next to him, but decided against it when he saw yoongi put in his headphones as soon as he began to open his mouth.
how rude, hoseok thought.
--
yoongi hadn't noticed that he'd fallen asleep. probably would have stayed that way if it wasn't for the unwanted weight leaning against him.
“hey! get off me!” yoongi said, his voice filled with disgust as he tried to push the male off of him.
but the blonde didn't move in the way yoongi wanted him to. instead, he moved closer to yoongi, his arm now wrapped around him.
you've got to be kidding me, yoongi thought.
he was just about to try and remove the male again when he noticed that the man was quite attractive.
he decided to let him stay there and fell back asleep, his head leaning against hoseok's.
--
when yoongi woke up he was surprised to see that the blonde was still wrapped around him.
his breath warm on yoongi's neck, causing him to chuckle softly.
he thought again about moving him but how could he when the man looked so sweet and delicate when he slept.
as yoongi scanned the other male's face he noticed he was even more beautiful than he thought. yoongi noticed the mole placed upon his upper lip and noticed how the blondes' eyelashes layed on his face so gently, they were long and thick and yoongi was kind of jealous that the boy had been blessed with such stunning features.
one other thing that yoongi had noticed was the unforgettable scent that came from the male.
yoongi wasn't a big fan of cologne but this may have just changed his mind.
yoongi was about to continue studying his newly found interest when he felt the blonde shift.
“ah sorry. i didn't mean to fall asleep on you like that.” the blonde continued to apologize to yoongi, even throwing in a small smile, hoping that it'd help yoongi forgive him.
but yoongi didn't mind. any frustration or aggravation that he had towards the male suddenly disappeared when he saw that beautiful smile of his.
hell, if we're being honest, it all disappeared as soon as he had seen how breathtakingly beautiful the man was.
“it's fine, i didn't mind.” yoongi replied.
and that one comment made hoseok smile so bright. the brightest smile yoongi had ever seen.
yoongi thought the morning sun painting the sky in shades of red and orange was the most beautiful thing he'd ever seen but hoseok's smile had replaced that thought.
so yoongi smiled back, all gummy and bright. and he realized that maybe getting up out of his comfy seat was all worth it.
hoseok was worth it.
“hey..you wanna grab something to eat together when we land?” yoongi asked.
he started to regret asking the question when he saw the blank expression on the blonde's face but soon the blankness was exchanged with hoseok's award winning smile.
“of course! i'll even pay since I put you through so much!” hoseok said brightly, giggling when he remembered that he'd fallen asleep on a random stranger.
“no, trust me. you've treated me enough!” yoongi said.
“...now i get to pay you back.” he continued.
and just like that, hoseok and yoongi had began their blossoming friendship.
they traveled everywhere together now, and every time hoseok falls asleep on yoongi the same way he did when they first met.
and yoongi now enjoys plane rides even more than he did before.
