Switch It Up
Pairing: BTS Hoseok x Yoongi x You
Genre: Fluffy fluffiness
Yoongi froze as he entered the living room, pausing for his eyes to adjust and his brain to register the scene before him. You were curled on the couch, slumped forward with tears streaking down your face, while your hands clutched tightly onto crumpled white tissues. Yoongi then looked to the body beside you – the real reason why he stood statuesque – and huffed out an exasperated sigh. Sitting next to you, in the exact same position was none other than Hoseok. He too had tears rapidly falling down his cheeks, and held not one, not two, but three tissues wrinkled in strong fists.
“You two are ridiculous.”
You barely responded to the voice emitting from the entrance of the room, but with a sniffle and extra hiccup, you turned your gaze to Yoongi and broke out in fresh new tears.
“B-but it’s so sad!”
The latest episode of the newest drama was running its course across the screen in front of you and Hoseok. As soon as the two of you watched the premiere episode, it was practically love at first scene. It was a romantic drama, with enough sorrow, regret, love, and tragedy to placate you for the next five years. The script was incredibly written, and the scenes were beautiful; tears were bound to come flowing from your eyes with each passionately acted episode.
“You should sit here and watch it with us.”
“Uh, I’ll pass.”
Hoseok shushed the two of you from the side, not even moving a muscle as you and Yoongi conversed. His eyes stayed glued to the screen before him; he did not want to miss even a millisecond of delirious action. As Yoongi walked away from the room and entered the conjoining kitchen, your gaze returned to the television and you sniffled again, once more focusing on the screen. You snuggled farther into Hoseok’s side, and he wrapped an arm warmly around your body, but before long you were both moving apart from the other, reaching for the tissue box again because those damned emotions were just shooting sky high. Who knew one episode could be so traumatic?
By the end of the drama, the day was beginning to bid farewell to the land, and the darkened sky was making a return appearance. Yoongi shuffled his way back into the room, deeming it acceptable now that the show was over, and the faucets coming from the two pairs of eyes had been shut off.
“Did you want me to make dinner? Seeing as you two probably need to get your bearings together and come back to reality.” Yoongi stood once again in the door way, his favourite spot when he didn’t want to get too far into the room of make believe sorrow and despair. It was kind of him to offer his services, yet Yoongi in the kitchen usually wasn’t a good match.
Clearing your throat, you lifted yourself off from the couch and began walking towards Yoongi. “No, I’ll make dinner. How does pasta sound for tonight?”
By the end of your question, your arms had found their way around Yoongi’s waist, and your head rested gently on his chest. You felt his arms return the favour and a gentle kiss met your hair.
“Pasta sounds good.”
You smiled up at him before you left for the kitchen, preparing what you needed to make the night’s dinner. You figured he finally moved from his rooted position by the entry, and sat slouched against Hoseok just like you were moments before. The three of you had been in a relationship for five months, so finding the right balance between everyone was still fresh.
Yoongi was the more rational and logical of your two boyfriends, using his brain more often than his heart. It explained why he never enjoyed watching these dramas with you, explaining it with “I just can’t connect with their problems,” and other reasons like that. He just couldn’t resonate with the strong feelings or emotional episodes that were often a trademark of these types of romantic shows. Your other boyfriend, Hoseok, was a different story altogether. He wore his heart on his sleeve, and was never afraid to show exactly how he was feeling. Whenever you wanted to watch a drama, cuddled up with one of your loves, he was always the one to volunteer immediately, loving the dramas as much as you did. He understood the intense emotion and the heartfelt confessions; he cried when you cried, and laughed when you laughed. All in all, Hoseok was the boyfriend who understood human emotions the best.
By the time your mind ran through all the reasons why the two men were so different, they were hollering from the living room wondering just when it was the food would be done. Since apparently they were absolutely starving and if they didn’t get any food that second, they were sure their stomachs would eat them from the inside out.
“Yah, yah, yah, it’s all ready. Come and get it you monsters.” A light chuckle and a shake of your head went unnoticed to the two bodies bounding into the room. If you didn’t know any better, you would have assumed the last time they ate was a month ago.
Your pasta was a huge success with the boys, their full mouths giving mumbled praise and thanks. Once everything was clean, you spooned some ice cream into bowls as dessert, and their ravenous appetite seemed to come back to a more human level.
“So what were you two watching that made you so emotional?” Yoongi shoveled a spoonful of ice cream into his mouth and looked dubiously over at the two of you for an answer he wasn’t sure he even wanted.
“You wouldn’t understand. You had to be there.” Hoseok responded lightly in return, taking his own spoon into his mouth and humming at the refreshing and cooling ice cream that landed onto his tongue.
“I wouldn’t understand? Try me.”
“Well for starters, the two main characters are madly in love with each other. But their families don’t know they are together and don’t really like the other person. Then one day they decided to confess to each of their parents that they are dating, but it was only because they were both set up for arranged marriages. Needless to say, their parents were furious and threatened to disown their own children! Now the two lovers decided to run away together and start a life, but of course their families were completely against that too, and sent people out looking for them. It’s just so intense!”
For a minute Yoongi just stared at Hoseok, not moving even the slightest muscle, while Hoseok stared back just as frozen. You looked between the two, waiting for someone to break the impromptu staring contest.
“Yah you’re right. I totally don’t get it.” Yoongi completely dismissed Hoseok’s passionate rambling of the current drama, and went straight back to his bowl of ice cream, scraping at the ceramic to ensure every last drop made it onto his spoon. Hoseok just stared a couple seconds longer, before he too, with a slight huff, went back to his ice cream as well. As for you; well you just lightly chuckled at the two opposing people in your life, but your mind was also whirring away with a well-crafted plan.
“So I have an idea.” You started your proposition just as the boys were setting down their spoons, knowing now that all attention would be on you, rather than divided between the sweet treat.
“Oh no.”
“Please no, anything but your ideas.”
“Hey! I’m offended; my ideas are good…sometimes.” You pouted at the looks you were receiving in front of you. So sometimes your ideas didn’t exactly go as planned, but they always ensured a good laugh! Even though that laugh usually came a week, maybe month, later.
And now Yoongi was prepared to derail your plan before it even began, “If this idea is anything like the time you decided to make a beach in our living room, you can count me out.”
So the sand got everywhere, so the fuse blew because of all the lights, heaters, and iPods plugged in to ensure a real beachy scene, but it was still a fun few minutes where it felt as though, on a rainy day, you were really at the beach.
But once one person started walking down memory lane, others are usually sure to follow. Namely Hoseok, “Or what about that time, the kiddy pool was filled up, left out overnight, and made into a small ice rink.”
Yeah, that definitely wasn’t the best of your moments. It seemed like a good idea at first; your mind thinking of all the fun that would be had with your own personal ice skating rink in the middle of winter. But of course, your mind failed to think of the possibility that the water wouldn’t freeze all the way through, that it would crack, and because of the small space of the kiddy pool, someone would trip on the crack, fall out of the pool, and seriously injure themselves.
“Or what about that time when – “
“Ok, thank you very much. I think we all get the picture here. But seriously, this idea will cause no lights to go out, or bodily harm to come to any of you. It’s harmless, really.”
“I don’t know.”
“I think I’ll still pass on it.”
“Just hear me out will you? Seriously, it’s not that bad. It would be funny!”
“Fine, make it quick. But if I think for a second my life will be on the line, I’m gone.”
You beamed at your two boyfriends, glad they at least accepted to hear out your idea, even though their faces where filled with frown lines.
“Ok, so you know how you two are so different? Like Hoseok will watch dramas and cry with me, while Yoongi is always the stoic one who refuses to sit and watch even a sappy commercial? What if you to switched personalities for a day? Wouldn’t that be funny?” You were giggling at your thoughts, and were about to explain your idea further when you got cut off.
“I’m sorry you want us to do what now?”
“I make it a point to not watch those dramas. Why would I agree to this?”
Yoongi and Hoseok were looking at you with incredulous eyes, not believing you suggested such an idea, but also not understanding why you would in the first place. How was this funny?
“Oh come on, be open minded a bit guys! It would be like in those sci-fi movies where two people switch bodies. But instead of us going on some crazy mission in order to find the machine that can turn you back to your correct body, we’ll just say that you have from morning until dinner tomorrow to be the other person. See how you guys handle it.”
“Pass.”
“I second that.”
You frowned again and let out a sigh, but frankly you really didn’t expect your novel idea to go over that well. Really, what were you thinking? As you lowered your head and began clearing the table of the final dishes, you didn’t notice the mischievous glance that was paced between Hoseok and Yoongi. Nothing else was said that night about your silly idea.
The following day you awoke with the early morning sun, and made your way quietly into the kitchen. As per usual, you began making breakfast for your boys, preparing food you knew they loved to start the day off on the right foot. You were just watching the food sizzle and pop in the pan in front of you when you heard muffled footsteps making their way into the kitchen. A soft smile graced your features, and you figured it was Hoseok coming down the hall. He was always the second one to wake up after yourself, and you waited patiently for his arms to curl around your body as they usually did for his way to say good morning.
“Good morning beautiful! You look refreshing this morning as always. Did you have any plans for today? I hear the latest episode of our favourite drama came out last night, and I’m dying to watch it with you.”
You paused your movements for a second, brows furrowed in utter confusion. The time was right for Hoseok to be awake, and the words certainly sounded like something he would say, and the energy level was definitely high enough for Hoseok this early in the morning. The only problem was that it didn’t sound like him at all. Slowly swiveling around, you began wondering why on earth Yoongi would be acting so strange and – oh. You completely forgot the idea you proposed last night; for them to change their personalities with the other and see what it would be like spending the day as someone else. To be honest, after the failed attempt at convincing them, you didn’t think they would change their minds and play along, but here you were standing in the kitchen, staring bug eyed at Yoongi with a huge grin set precisely on his over joyed face. Oh he was pulling off Hoseok surprisingly well.
“Hey sunshine, what’s for breakfast today?” Yoongi strode over to where you stood frozen against the counter. He placed his arms around your waist and hummed in content as he looked down into the pan of sizzling bacon and toast.
“Can I help you with anything?”
You had yet to speak any words, but quickly shook yourself of the day dream.
“Well you can set the table if you like?”
“Anything for you love.”
As Yoongi skipped away to set the table, you shook you head with a light chuckle. If the day was going to continue like this, then you were in for many amusing hours. You couldn’t wait to see what Hoseok as Yoongi would be like too.
Speak of the devil; just as you were plating the breakfast for everyone, Hoseok shuffled himself into the kitchen. Along the way he smacked his lips, ruffled his rumpled hair, and gave a peck onto yours and Yoongi’s forehead. It was amazing how well he too was being another person. It was as though the two of them really did switch bodies.
“Ok lovers, what are you all doing for the day.”
Hoseok: “I’m going to work on some music for a bit, see where that takes me.”
Yoongi: “You and I, my dear, have a cuddle date with the sofa and our favourite drama. You get the tissues, and I’ll get the tea.”
You burst out laughing within a split second, finding their switched personalities absolutely amusing. You were in awe of the ease that they pulled it off with. If nothing else, it told you just how well each of them knew each other for them to so perfectly switch.
As you laughed, wiping away happy tears that managed trail down your face, you missed the mischievous glance sent silently between the two men. While you were getting ready for bed the night before, Yoongi and Hoseok had talked about your little idea. They weren’t too keen on it, but they figured if it would make you happy, then they would do it. They finished up their little conference as you walked out of the bathroom, watching as you snuggled up with them unaware that anything had transpired.
Now, as they sat watching you cry from laughing so hard, they were glad they went along with this little plan. They always wanted to make you satisfied within the relationship, and to them they knew that this would be yet another silly memory they would always be able to bring up.
For the entire day Yoongi acted perfectly as Hoseok, and Hoseok exquisitely manifested into Yoongi. Dramas streamed loudly from the television set as you curled into Yoongi’s side. From time to time you heard sniffles beside you, and you giggled attempting to figure out if Yoongi was actually a secret drama lover and being genuine with his emotions or it was still an act. Either way you didn’t care, you were enjoying the afternoon spent with one of your boyfriends.
From time to time, Hoseok came into the living room from the music room and joined the two of you on the couch. Slinging his arm naturally around your shoulders, making sure to touch Yoongi’s as well, but he would soon be off, hibernating in the secluded back room. By the time dinner time came, the drama’s credits rolled on screen, and Hoseok stood precisely in the doorway, just like Yoongi usually did.
You finally stood and stretched your limbs high above your head. Wordlessly you walked out of the kitchen to begin making dinner, while Yoongi and Hoseok once again moved closer to each other.
“Dinner’s ready!” You hollered from the kitchen, placing the last dish of home cooked food on the round table. Once everyone seated themselves at the table and began eating, you brought up the events of the day.
“Ok, I think it’s safe to be yourself again. How’d it go? From my perspective, that was the funniest thing to ever happen!” You laughed once again to yourself, quickly reliving the events of the day.
“If anything came out of the day, it was awesome cuddling up with you, and watching how passionately you get absorbed into a drama.”
“And I quite enjoyed writing songs. Who knew that it could be so calm and relaxing? But man, was the entire day tiring.”
“Absolutely exhausting.”
“Let’s never do that again.”
“Agreed.”
Both then turned to face you, wanting your assurance as well from the deal they just formed; this was a day they weren’t particularly keen on repeating again, even if you did enjoy every second of it.
“Ok fine, no more boyfriend switch ups. But what if a brain switching machine was invented one day?”
You couldn’t help your laughter that accompanied your two boyfriends’ groans from your remark. Ok, so maybe coming up with new ideas wasn’t really your forte. But it didn’t matter, seeing as the two men in your life were absolutely perfect already.

Hope you all enjoyed that! I don’t know where that idea came from, but I had a lot of fun writing it. Hopefully you had as much fun reading it.
Please remember to comment and request!
