Yoongi grabbed Hoseok's hand the moment Namjoon had said his name. He almost couldn't believe his own ears as he heard the demon's apology, but he couldn't stomp out the anger that rose up in him. He held Hoseok's hand tighter and released a growl from deep in his throat. How dare he! Does he really think an apology will make everything he did better!?
Calm down, little angel. Yoongi jumped as he heard Hoseok in his head, glanced up to see the demon's red and gold eyes but Yoongi shook his head. He wouldn't calm down- he couldn't! Not this time.
"How dare you." Yoongi said coldly, stepping forward and placing himself between Hoseok and Namjoon. "How dare you think 'I'm sorry' is enough!" Yoongi's eyes turned blue and he caught Namjoon's gaze- looking into his heart and finding his true intention. "You're not even sorry you hurt him. You're only sorry your actions made you a bad person. I've got news for you, asshole- you were a bad person before you cheated on Hoseok."
Hoseok was stunned- stunned his little angel had spoken up and stunned that he was so angry at Namjoon for what he had done. The demon could hardly breathe at the different feelings rolling from his furious little angel. Anger, hurt, sadness, affection. They all hit Hoseok like a truck, making it hard for him to process his own emotions. "Yoongi..." Hoseok pulled the angel back to him, finding more comfort in holding the angel's hand than he wanted to admit. "It's not worth the fight. This happened a long time ago, it's alright now."
"It's not alright!" Yoongi wanted to scream but decided on only raising his voice a bit to get his message to Hoseok across. "And 'not worth the fight'- are you joking!? Hoseok that's like saying you're not worth the fight and fuck yes, you are! Damn you, you frustrating demon!" Yoongi stomped his foot as he yelled at Hoseok, making the demon show a mix of shocked and impressed on his face. "Damn it Hoseok I thought you were smarter than this! Tell him you won't accept his apology because he's not apologizing for the right reasons! You only just barely released your mating bond- I know you're hurting. It's not even my place to be getting this mad but I can't help it!"
Jimin, Jungkook, and Taehyung were watching the angel lose his shit with smiles on their faces. They could smell the strong emotion rising in the angel, an emotion that stemmed from his heart. It was confused, and it was a little angry, but underneath the other ocean of emotions was the warmth of love rising up.
"Yoongi please calm dow-"
"Don't 'Yoongi calm down' me! I won't! Nam-douche broke your fucking heart and you're about to let him get away with it like it didn't destroy you until recently! Damn it Hoseok!" Yoongi shoved the demon's shoulders, clenching his jaw and poking his lips out in an angry pout again. "Tell him it's not ok. Tell him it's not fair. He hurt you and I don't...I don't even know if there's anything I can do to fix it. What if I'm not...enough?" Yoongi's voice got softer until it was just above a whisper. All of the anger he held towards Namjoon turned to sadness as he realized what the greatest fear he held in his heart was- he was afraid he'd never have all of Hoseok's love the way Namjoon had when he threw it all away.
"Joonie, baby, the angel has a point. With what you did to him, there's a chance that demon won't open up. If Hoseok's always afraid Yoongi will leave him like you did, then Yoongi could be the one getting hurt this time. I fell easily for you because I frankly wasn't too attached to Heaven anyways- so if you left me like you did your mate, I wouldn't be out too much. But- Yoongi's got a good life in Heaven. He's not unhappy caring for the humans and the future. If this is a mistake or if Hoseok doesn't fully give his heart to the angel- Yoongi's fucked." Seokjin's brows had drawn together while the angel went off on Hoseok, he realized probably before any of the others what the smaller angel was trying to find the words to say.
Yoongi nodded a bit, making it clear that Seokjin was exactly right in putting the words to the fears in the pit of his stomach. His eyes stung a bit as he blinked tears out of his vision and he threw himself at Hoseok, wrapping his arms around the demon's waist and nuzzling into the demon's chest- opening up his mind because he didn't trust his mouth to speak. Don't hate me
I couldn't hate you, little angel.
I didn't mean to shove you or yell at you.
Hoseok laughed and kissed the top of the angel's head. "Yoongi do you want to know a secret? Do you want to know why you shouldn't be afraid of if I'll give you all my love or not?"
Dark cat-like eyes looked up to a smiling face, and Hoseok nudged his nose against the angel's lightly.
"Hoseok finally broke what was left of the mating bond with Namjoon because he knew he couldn't mate with you until it was cleared from him." Taehyung said with a boxed smile, Jimin and Jungkook nodded and nuzzled into their mate, arms wrapping around one another.
"Damn...that's actually really cute." Seokjin pulled his lips into a little smile and looked to his own mate- hitting him hard on the shoulder when Namjoon just stared blankly at the angel and demon almost-couple. "Namjoon! I swear to fuck if you don't apologize and actually mean it, you're not getting dick for a month!"
"Namjoon bottoms!?" Jungkook screeched, throwing his arms into the air. "Why does everyone bottom but me!?"
"Do you want to bottom?" Taehyung asked with the slight tilt of his head and a smirk on his mouth, making Jungkook blush.
"I-I wouldn't mind trying..."
Namjoon rolled his eyes and smacked his mate on the arm. "See what you did?! Now they think I'm a bottom!"
"Joonie...baby...you are a bottom."
Yoongi blinked with a confused expression on his face and looked up to Hoseok who was laughing loudly. "What's the big deal about being a bottom?"
Hoseok couldn't control his squeal as he grabbed his little angel's face in his hands and squished his cheeks. "You're so fucking cute!" He giggled and hugged his angel tightly. "If you fall I'll teach you~"

The entire group decided to take the party- or rather, start a party- at Taehyung, Jungkook, and Jimin's home. Slowly Namjoon warmed up to being social with the others, realizing that Hoseok really had moved on and didn't hate him nearly as much as he probably deserved. Jimin still watched the much taller demon with a glare- mostly because he was the one who dealt with Hoseok's miserable nights the most- but he made an effort to be nice.
Yoongi watched as Hoseok danced with Jimin, apparently having what they called a 'dance battle'. He was fascinated with the ways Hoseok could move his body, it was as if his muscles each had a mind of their own and weren't truly controlled by him at all. His heart pounded again, and as the music changed to something more sweet and pop sounding and less heavy EDM, Yoongi found the urge to kiss the demon almost uncontrollable. He hurriedly ran over to Taehyung and Seokjin and grabbed their hands, dragging them outside before anyone could distract him.

"Help. I need your help." Yoongi said between gasps, the way his heart was pounding, it made his body shake and his skin shine with sweat. The feelings rising in him scared him and he had no idea how to respond to them- so he panicked.
"Yoongi, what's going on?" Taehyung grabbed his friend's shoulders to steady his shaking body.
"When did you know you wanted to fall? When did you know the time was right to take that jump?"
Seokjin lowered himself to the angel's level and studied his eyes, realizing the angel's pupils were blown wide with what smelled a lot like a cocktail of love, lust, and need. "Do you see yourself going back to Heaven and living without Hoseok?" the smaller demon shook his head. "Can you see your life without that demon in it?" he shook his head again. "Do you understand that the two of you will have to protect each other, talk to each other, and give your hearts and souls to each other in order to have a long and happy mated life?" he nodded this time, an eager, sure kind of nod that made Seokjin stand and glance to Taehyung.
