'Nothing Like Us' taekook

The icy mountain air raised thick clouds of dark dust, whipping through the desert mountains,creaking and groaning. Taehyung's leg jutted out in the void of the steep cliff, ready to put an end to his suffering. His shoulders hunched, feeling heavy. Adrenaline was rushing through his veins, making him jittery to the bone, washing over his skin again and again, cold sweat slithering down his forehead and back.

A simple step forward. Just one more step and everything would end. He'd find redemption and his loved ones justice.

One more step and he'd escape his misery and free the world from another bastard. He wasn't weak, he could do it..A heartless beast like him had the guts to do it..

For the people he had killed. The friends he had lost. The brother he had disappointed. For Jungkook..the love of his life that took forever to realise and admit.

Just one more step and it would be over. He'd meet his maker and obviously go straight to hell as he probably had a space reserved there. His eyes blurry, filled with tears, dripping on his face. His heart skipped beats. 

However, at the last minute, he stepped back and knelt on the dusty hill, covering his face with his palms and poured out a thunderous, blaring cry, roaring on the emptiness of the desert, raising his head to the starless sky.

It would be too easy for V to kill himself and end his ordeal. It would ease his mind to find peace after so much killing and hurting. It was only fair to live and breathe with the pain he had brought to others. He had no right to take his own life and find comfort for his deeds while his loved ones hadn't taken their revenge.

His greatest punishment would be to live and remember. Live without his family and the love of his life. As his way of compensating for what he had done.

His body collapsed on the dusty, rocky ground, weeping like an infant, screaming and yelling. For his wretched life.

His heavy crimes.

The disappointment he gave his family.

The unforgivable pain he gave to Jungkook.

He deserved to remember. He deserved to suffer.

Guy had parked the car a few metres away so as not to be seen. He stepped out and climbed up the rocky path, reaching the top, having a clearer view of his boss and what he witnessed shocked him. 

V was standing too close to the edge of the cliff and it looked like he was ready to..jump? It was impossible. Not V. Not his boss.The moment he saw him lifting his leg and taking another step,he got anxious and was about to shout and run and stop him but the most peculiar thing happened.

V fell on his knees, taking out an ear splitting roar of anguish and pain, collapsed and began crying. Guy's heart was repeatedly punching his chest as he couldn't make any sense out of this. V was tough. Relentless. He had no emotions. He was notorious for his cruelty and incapacity to act as a human and watching him cry was a revelation. They had all sensed a change on him after his return from abroad but he was unprepared for what he was facing at that moment.

The blonde haired man stayed hidden behind a rock waiting and waiting. His phone was vibrating but didn't answer it in fear of V realising he wasn't alone. Guy owed his life to V. He was living on the streets of Vegas, begging for money, stealing to eat and getting his fix. He gave him the chance of a new life away from the streets and the drugs. He didn't care what people thought of his boss. For him he was a hero. His saviour as he was for all of them because they carried their own personal demons.

He had given them a home, a job, a family and they had sworn to protect him at all costs. So seeing so vulnerable burnt his heart. He remained put till V stumbled back to his car and drove off. Then he followed him back to the casino. Back to safety.

______

Taehyung, during his drive back to Stigma, got the chance to calm down and regain part of his self control. He parked the car in the alley behind the casino, keys in the ignition and entered the back door, giving a prim nod of greeting to his men inside.

" Get me Alexander." he instructed one of them and headed straight to his office, ignoring the odd kooks he was given.

" You asked for me?" Alexander walked in rather timidly, standing in a safe distance. Guy had already filled them in about what had happened in the mountain and it only confirmed their suspicions. Something was troubling their boss.

" Yeah..Is Smith alive?"

" No. He's dead.Our men burnt his body in the desert."

Another victim of V's crimes. Another person his hand had killed." He's got a daughter. Find more about her and brief me."

" The girl is eighteen,just got accepted to Harvard but I doubt he'll go. Smith left her with nothing apart from debts and a mortgage in their house." Alexander had done his homework in advance, certain V would ask him and he wanted to be prepared.

Taehyung lit a cigarette,sucking in the smoke and went to the bar to get a drink." I see.."

Alexander didn't move an inch." How should I handle it?" 

" Contact the dean and tell him we'll pay her tuition fees. Buy Smith's business and pay off the mortgage. The money from his company should be enough for her to live well. Who do we trust in Massachusetts?"

Alexander thought for a moment." Gareth. The man whose business you saved five years ago." V was in the habit of saving people apart from killing them. Sometimes he had flashes of humanity.

" Ask him to keep an eye on her. Make sure she's safe. If she needs a job, tell him to offer her one. He'll find a way. You can go now." He turned his back on Alexander, dawdling the people wandering around his casino from the window, pensive, contemplating the complexities of his life's choices.

" Taehyung?"

"Mmmm?" 

" It wasn't your fault. Smith I mean..you know that, don't you?"

Taehyung had neither the intention nor the will to talk further about the subject." Go.. you've got work to do." 

Alexander shook his head in despair and left the same way he had walked in. With more unanswered questions.

______

The next morning Taehyung sneaked out of his house without being noticed, got into one of his cars, a black Cadillac and drove to the city centre, parking it outside an enormous office building and entered it. He went to the twentieth floor and hesitantly knocked on the door. Today was one of those peculiar days he betrayed his usual style and got dressed more casual. Baggy blue jeans, yellow v neck T-shirt, light brown leather jacket and sneakers.

He chuckled thinking of Jungkook's reaction to his clothes and it reminded him of the night they went for a ride in his bike…How badly he wanted those moments back. He would have done things differently.

A short man in his fifties opened the door and was startled to see him." Taehyung?"

"Hi doc.. I think I need help." His eyebrows wrinkled and mouth scrunched.

The man stepped aside, inviting him in." So what can I do for you?" 

Taehyung spent two hours in that office. The first one he kept staring outside the huge window in absolute silence and the doctor waited for him patiently, knowing that he needed time to open up. The next hour words, thoughts and feelings just kept popping out of his mouth and in the end he felt liberated to share them with someone.

Standing at the door, his hands in his pockets he took a good look at the doctor. " Why are you being so nice to me? You know who I am."

" Who do you think you are,Taehyung?"

" A criminal. That's how people see me." 

" The important question is how do you see yourself? People see what we show them, not how we feel." 

" That's utopic doc. I sack at expressing my emotions and the bitterness I carry. I suppose the worst feeling is when you force yourself to be heartless so nothing can hurt you anymore. At some point you become what you despise." 

The man tapped his back, smiling." Accepting is the first step to healing.And perhaps I see something in you, you can't. I'll never forget how you saved my brother's life so perhaps you're not the bastard you think you are. Same time tomorrow?" 

" Yeah.. I'll be here." He nodded and went for the elevator. Once he reached outside, he could actually breathe. He didn't feel like going back and decided to go to a cafe and have breakfast. He entered the first he spotted just around the corner. 

He ordered tea, he couldn't stand coffee,a big American breakfast and a piece of strawberry cake. He loved everything regarding strawberries. His mama used to make cakes and cookies and scolded him badly when he'd eat more than she permitted him.

Good old days that seemed so far away. He chuckled thinking how Jin was giving him 'mama' vibes. Jungkook and Jimin were pretty damn lucky to have Jin as their papa. One more reason for him to stay away. He didn't want to destroy their family. Come between Jungkook and his parents in case he claimed him because they would disapprove of him.Their relationship would cause more problems and make Jungkook unhappy having to choose between his family and him. 

Finishing his breakfast he paid the bill and went for a long drive, listening to jazz. He needed to get out of the hustling and bustling of the city.

Back at the casino, his men were restless with his disappearance. His phone was switched off and nobody knew where the hell he was. 

Alexander was pacing back and forth at the office, occasionally stopping and mumbling to himself.

" Will you stop? You're digging holes on the floor and giving me a headache." Yosef scolded him and despite his cool attitude, he was as anxious and worried as Alexander.

" Where is he? He's been gone for hours.." he glanced at his wristwatch." Five to be exact. It's not like him to disappear without telling me his schedule." 

" A very good question." Yosef lisped between gnashed teeth." Don't worry, I'm sure he's fine." He pretended to be cool but he was scared. After last night's events they were all on pins and needles. 

" He tried to kill himself, Yosef! V tried to kill himself!"he reminded him strictly." So excuse me for worrying!" 

Yosef stood closer and patted his back." Come on Alex! It's V we're talking about! He is as tough as a rock!"

" Rocks crack too! And break! Could you act a little more sympathetic?"

Adrian barged in and seeing them all gloomy, he concluded they didn't have any news of V's whereabouts." Still no news?" 

" No,he's here and we hide him just to mess with you!" Yosef replied sarcastically, huffing.

Adrian passed over his remark and continued."I'm gonna send the boys out to look for him. We just can't sit here doing nothing!" 

" And where will you search Sherlock? All over Vegas? The state? All states? It's like searching for a needle in a haystack! Or perhaps we should go to the police! That would be amazing!"Yosef pointed out, sitting at the edge of the couch, crossing his arms and tapping his foot.

" Yeah, wise guy! If I have to!" 

" Kiss my fucken ass, asshole!" 

" Piss off,dickhead!" Adrian blurted out, giving him the middle finger.

" Right back at you,dumbass!" he threw back at him, rolling his eyes and giving him the middle finger as well.

Alexander facepalmed himself, shaking his head and cupping his cheeks in frustration and despair. They were bickering like kids, neglecting the seriousness of the situation. How the hell would they survive without V? Who would run the business in case he was..Oh dear Lord!They were doomed! 

Unable to handle their whining and nagging, he whistled loudly, gaining their attention." HEY CUT IT OUT! SHUT THE FUCK UP BOTH OF YOU!" 

The two men stopped and stared at Alexander.

"Good.. now that I've got your attention, please let's be mature. Talk and find a solution. There must be something we can do." 

" About what?" An unexpected voice interrupted them and they turned their heads towards the door.

" You're here."

" You're alive." 

" Where the hell have you been?" The three males said all together.

Taehyung walked past them, reached his office desk and sat at the edge." Yeah I am. Why wouldn't I be? And wherever the hell I wanted to. Does that answer your stupid questions?" 

" You left without telling me." Alexander noted, staggering him with his gaze.

" I didn't know we were married and I had to tell you where I went." 

" It's not what I meant." Alexander hectically corrected him." We couldn't find you. Your phone was dead and we got worried. You've got enemies everywhere. We thought something happened to you."

" Alex and Adrian did. I know you are too hard to die." Yosef corrected them, relieved he was finally back. As much as he hated to admit, his mind thought of the worst possible scenario.

" As you can see.." he stretched open his long arms, frowning."I'm still breathing and nobody kidnapped or killed me. Sorry to disappoint you."

Yosef was wreathed in smiles and relieved."Since your black sense of humour is back I guess you're fine." He stood up and approached him." So are you gonna tell us where the fuck you've been?" 

Taehyung grinned and took a seat behind his desk, stretching his legs." None of your fucken business. Now if there's nothing more, beat it." 

Before Alexander gave him a paid answer for making them sick with worry,his phone rang."Yeah..are you fucken kidding me? Stay there and don't let..her.." the whispered the word."out of your sight!" He turned to Taehyung." You'd better come with me. We've got a.. situation." 

The three men dashed to Taehyung's penthouse and found four of his men in the living room,sweating like pigs, trembling and forming a wall with their bodies, hiding something or someone.

" What's going on here?" Taehyung asked,unreasonably calm but certain he'd lose his patience really soon. He was surrounded by idiots.His nostrils were smashed by a familiar yet grimmy smell that seemed to be lingering in the air.

One of the men, the taller,coughed to clear his dry throat,with his head low and hands in fists. His voice trembled the moment he spoke."She.. sneaked in..I don't know how..we found her walking around the house..naked.. sorry boss."

Taehyung recognised the scent. Number 1..whose name escaped him because he never bothered finding out. For him his slaves had numbers not faces. They served a specific purpose and intimacy was out of the question. Perhaps because deep inside he was gay,in spite of his constant denial and that was one of the reasons he couldn't get emotionally attached to a woman. Or because his heart was waiting for the right person to be given to. A man. Jungkook.

" Get out of my way." His order, plain and simple. His men, petrified, didn't move as if their feet weren't complying to the order.

Just stared like a bunch of idiots.

Alexander and Yosef seemed amused, however deep down they were ready to face the boss' wrath.

" I said get out of the way." Taehyung darted, violently pushing them aside and came face to face with a woman, knelt on the marble floor, hands pinned to the side, head staring at the ground, covered in a black raincoat.

" Master..I needed to see you.." her red lips quivering, her eyelashes kicking, in her smutched from mascara,eyes.

Taehyung shut his stormy eyes, taking long, deep breaths through his nose to cool, his raging from anger,heart. " Why are you here?" 

The woman, in the same position, not daring to face him,let out a muffled moan." I need you master. It's been too long." 

" Your contract has been terminated and you were asked not to come here ever again." He answered calmly although his tage was pulling up. 

" But master.." 

" I'm not your fucken master! You have no right invading my private space and barging into my home! You were ordered to stay away." His need to scream and shout at the top of his lungs was making his effort to remain in control harder, almost impossible.

The woman couldn't keep her mouth shut and unfortunately for her , she spoke her mind." Our session room, our toys are there, waiting for us..I love you master.. please,take me back.. I'll do whatever you want.. Please.." 

Taehyung,at the realization that bloody woman stepped foot in his and Jungkook's bedroom, desecrating and defiling it with her presence, blew a gasket. Stooping over, his fingers snatched her jaw, abruptly raising her head, her teary- filled eyes meeting his bloodshot gaze." Did you go inside my bedroom?"His rusty, intimidating tone made everyone gasp.

She made several attempts to form words but all failed, clogged in her throat as fear crossed her face,so she simply gave him a timid nod. Taehyung's mouth set in a hard line, the muscles in his jaw tightened and a loud growl flew out of his quivering lips.

" WHO THE FUCK TOLD YOU TO GO INSIDE? TO TOUCH MY THINGS? TO DEFILE THEM WITH YOUR DIRTY HANDS? FUCKEN BITCH!" He was hot fluid in a container! Shoving her forcefully till she hit the ground, hissing ,running his trembling fingers through his hair, snarling and cursing like he was in the process of exploding! 

" V calm down." Alexander told him not knowing what to do. It was the first time he saw V losing his temper and acting so out of character. He was always serene even when facing the most arduous situation and his violent outburst was a revelation to everyone present.

Taehyung was out of control. The thought of someone encroaching his sanctuary, hands touching the toys he especially had for his love, eyes feasting on Jungkook's space was driving him mad. That place was purified from the evil he once had in his life and now it was snatched from him.

Yosef was quiet as a mouse, observing, scanning,and recording in order to make some sense. What was so important in that room that no one was allowed to see? What caused his outburst in such a violent way? His curiosity grew by the minute. Taehyung was definitely hiding something. Something nobody should discover.

The door of the bedroom was half opened and his eyes searched to find some sort of clue and the only thing he managed to see was the half frame of a photo hanging on the wall, displaying a person but he couldn't tell exactly what it was..

Taehyung noticed the woman was withholding something locked in her left hand, squeezing it tightly. The small, sparkling rock sticking out of her palm so he promptly uncurled her fingers and realised it was Jungkook's diamond collar. He immediately snatched it, growling." THIS DOESN'T BELONG TO YOU! YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE TOUCHED IT WITH YOUR DIRTY HANDS! " Not that.. Kookie's collar..his present to him. The declaration of their union and his undying love and devotion. He hid it inside his jacket pocket but his mind was so foggy and disoriented his wrath didn't subside.

"GET HER OUT OF MY FACE! MAKE HER DISAPPEAR! IF THIS HAPPENS AGAIN I'LL KILL YOU ALL WITH MY BARE HANDS! FUCKEN IDIOTS! NOW SCOOT! GET LOST! GET THE FUCK OUT! ALL OF YOU! LEAVE ME THE FUCK ALONE!"" his wailing was heard all the way to the downstairs floors,shaking the mere foundations of the casino.

The woman was dragged out,pulling up a strong resistance,shouting and crying in despair, kicking her feet.Yosef and Alexander decided to take the stairs, none of them in the mood to discuss what they had witnessed. Their steps were heavy and lethargic.They were deeply plunged in thoughts,each of them reaching their own conclusion. Yosef knew. He understood. His suspicions had turned into proof. 

V's long absence, the termination of his contracts, his bizarre behaviour which made no sense,his outburst in front of everyone,one minute he was indifferent and rude, the next lost in his thoughts, daydreaming. His wrath for the unexpected invasion of his privacy. 

Well,they indicated one thing. Something was different. Something has changed in him. Because of a woman perhaps. A gorgeous woman who made him reconsider his life and his bad choices. And when a man like V happens to fall head over heels, it's intense and forever.

Only Yosef spoke before leaving Alexander outside his office and walking towards the control room, a floor down." He's in love. Mark my words..V is in love." 

Alexander found that inconceivable to even consider the possibility.

_______

Their penthouse reeked of cheap perfume, infected by an unpleasant odour of twisted evil. Taehyung's stomach was filled with a gnawing stirring, making him want to vomit. He locked the penthouse and rushed to open every window inside every room to get rid of the stinking smell. He stormed inside the session room and placed the collar in its spot.

Then he changed clothes,putting on a pair of old,grey sweatpants and a washed out t-shirt and got down to work. This place would shine by the time he would finish. He dusted the furniture, ornaments, mopped the marble floor and scrubbed it with his hands, knelt down till his kneecaps got numbed and his knuckles red and itchy from the bleach.

He moved to the kitchen where he cleaned the cupboards, cooker, fridge inside out not leaving any appliance untouched. Put the utensils in the dishwasher, dried them and then placed them back. His next stop was the bedroom, bathroom and session room.

He changed the bed sheets,cleaned the furniture and Jungkook's pictures on the wall,went to the bathroom and scrubbed every inch determined to get rid of the dirt of that woman's presence in his home .Lastly he scoured tbe session room from soup to nuts.It took him hours and hours to finish until he was satisfied with the result.

He notified Alexander that he wouldn't go to the casino and warned them not to disturb him even If the world was on fire. Later he had a long bath,washing away the disgusted feeling of being touched by that bloody woman. His appetite was gone and his stomach was knotted so he just drank and drank and smoked locked up in his bedroom,huddled in a dark corner,feeling the despair and sadness bleeding from his broken heart.

The night was an endless battle to find peace. His past haunted him and reminded him that his chances of earning happiness were slim no matter how hard he tried to overcome the obstacles he had inflicted on himself. His life's choices were a burden. One he could never escape. 

Tonight was the first night he couldn't feel or see Jungkook and he was in desperate need to sense him. Not even the booze was enough to make him appear. His image seemed a distant memory, fading in the troubled depths of his delusional mind.

" Where are you baby? Why can't you come? I need to see you..hear you..feel you..Why? Why?" He hugged his knees, his body cradling,his tears flowing uncontrollably, trying to focus and discard the raucous bustle of the city, aggravating him more than usual.

His teary eyes shut, a heavy sigh left his quivering lips as he buried his head between his legs. It was that bloody woman's fault. Her intrusion had polluted his home and deprived him of Jungkook 's presence. Taehyung was terrified of losing the scarce hope of seeing the younger,even as a hallucination.

His actions and behaviour seemed obsessive but it was his only connection to reality. A reality he had formed in his mind and his hallucinations were a major part. He knew he was acting like a mad man. He didn't mind though. For him it was his life for months and he was fine with it.

He lifted his head up, resting it on the wall behind it. The tears wouldn't stop. Unexpectedly, the corner of his eye caught a glimpse of a slim, dark figure at the doorway, running and giggling. His attempt to stand up failed as his legs were numbed from being curled up for so long and he had to crawl all the way to the door.

" Jungkook? Baby? Are you here? Love, talk to me. Let me see you." he implored, his eyes scanning the bedroom. He heard light footsteps and cute giggles in the next room and gnashing his teeth, managed to get up, stumbled a bit and reached the living room,hobbling. A faded shadow of Jungkook was hopping and dancing in the darkness. But as Taehyung was moving closer to him, he was becoming more transparent,till seconds later he completely vanished, leaving the man heartbroken.

His knees felt weak, his body panged and he collapsed on the floor,hand raised towards the faded shadow, stretching his arm to reach and touch him.

" Please don't go.. don't leave me..stay with me a little longer..I need you baby.. it's so cold without you.. It kills me to be away from you..I'm scared.. I'm so scared.. I'm so scared Jungkook.. please come back..please.." 

His cries became a consistent, rhythmic song of heartbreak and anguish. Unable to suppress them, his heartfelt screaming and weeping shook the whole penthouse. 

He was alone. 

He had lost Jungkook.

He was left broken once again.

What was the point of living anymore?

_______

Yoongi breatched inside the house, banging the door behind him and throwing his briefcase and hat on the couch. He had left work early, leaving Namjoon alone just because he couldn't take that shit anymore.Knowing Jimin was at the office, he took off his uniform jacket, tie and unbuttoned the first three buttons of his neat,white shirt.

He rushed to the bar,poured himself a glass of bourbon and gorged it all in one go, shrilling at the burning sensation in his throat. He took a packet of cigarettes from his bag and lit one, feeling the smoke taking control of his frustration.

If he spent one more minute in that office he would have snubbed and started punching people. One in particular!

" Don't let Jimin see you smoking. You know how he feels." Jin's voice echoed in his ears,startling him as he thought he was alone.

Still holding the cigarette Yoongi turned around facing Jin's smiley expression." I won't tell, if you won't."

Jin understood something was troubling him the moment he heard him entering the house with a bang." Get me one too." he sighed."From the looks of you, I won't like what I'll hear."

The younger poured his hyung a glass of bourbon, refilling his and passed it over.

Jin had a sip of his drink as he sat on the couch,glass on his right leg, nodding at Yoongi to do the same." So.. what seems to trouble you?" He knew it wasn't job related because he never brought work home. He suspected it had something to do with Jungkook and SeenHe.

" You know hyung, I've always considered myself an excellent judge of characters. I've always been fair and didn't lose my patience even under the most infuriating situations due to my excellent training.But right now.." he raised both hands in the air, scoffing." I'm having a really hard time controlling myself from punching a certain someone in the face. I can't stand him! He makes me so fucken mad!" His fist punched the air, growling.

Jin smiled,shaking his head. " Let me guess..SeenHe? What did he do now?"

" He marches inside Namjoon's office,like a fucken king,like he owns the damn place, behaves as part of the family, openly expressing his opinion about things that don't concern him,giving hyung advice on how to deal with Jungkook and then asks for tips on how to charm Kookie!Kookie! He gave him a nickname! And of course plans his future with his 'soon to be boyfriend '! Because in his mind they're already happily married,expecting their first kid."

Jin burst out laughing at his vivid description and constant movement of his arms." That man has a unique way of infuriating the most serene person. I swear to you there are times I think of different ways to murder him. They all ended in me getting arrested and him buried six feet in the ground." Jin calmly admitted, crossing his legs and resting his left hand on the rolled arm of the modern, leather couch." I don't think I have ever been tempted to kill a person. Not even Taehyung."

" The guy has it coming! Him and his arrogance.!"

"I must admit I'm surprised in a good way. I would have imagined you'd be supporting your colleague." the older divulged." You've got a soft tooth for Kook and you've been the best hyung for him over the years so after learning how Taehyung treated him,I believed you'd want to kill him."

" I sure did!" Yoongi asserted, stretching one leg." I wanted to give him a slow and painful death. But I realised Jungkook loves him and to be honest,I find him less of a jerk than SeenHe. Don't ask me why. I don't justify his behaviour, the way he manipulated Kook and I know he's a fucken bastard and deserves to go to hell for what he's done but my guts tell me he's a better choice for Kook. I can't believe I'm saying this!" Yoongi rubbed his temples." Can you see how mad that jerk makes me to find Taehyung a suitable match for Kook?" 

" He's a troubled soul,Yoongi. He hides his pain by being tough and obscure but I like him..I do. I wish Nam and Jimin could see what I see. But I don't blame them."

" Don't get me started on your husband!" the younger blew a snort.

" Still indecisive and reluctant to send him to hell? I'm not surprised. Anyway If he can't, I'll be happy to do it."

" Get in line! SeenHe has pissed off a lot of people in the department."

" I imagine he has. He seems ambitious enough to become dangerous."

"He's a brainless, cunning old fox. His brain is like the Bermuda Triangle. Information goes in and it's never found again."

" It's remarkable how he has fooled everyone." Jin noted, titling his head to the side and tapping his finger on his jaw." I gotta admit I disliked him from the moment I met him. His eyes were shifty. I hate people with shifty eyes."

" And I can't believe we are the only ones who can see through him. Namjoon and Jimin act like they're afraid of him. Keeping their mouths shut, watching him coming and going, pretending to be a savor for his cute, little Kookie!" Yoongi made a disgusted grimace, puffing the smoke in and out.

"Do you think Jungkook is fond of him?" Jin asked,earning a loud groan from Yoongi.

" Fond of him, my ass!" He retorted with the incident from last week stuck in his head." We forced him. In our own way we pushed him to SeenHe, lecturing him about forgetting and moving on. He's clearly not ready to forget and he's still in love with Taehyung. I can hear him crying in his room every night for him, hyung. And it fills me with guilt. You know, I caught that weasel kissing him one night? Kissing him and Jungkook was standing there. Numbed." He puffed in annoyance,gulping the rest of his drink.

"I hear him too. He pretends to be strong and happy but inside he's hurting. You can't heal a broken heart by ignoring her and forcing her to beat for another one. Jungkook is crazy in love with Taehyung and Yoongi, you might think I'm insane but that man also loves him. He loves him!" 

The younger looked at his father in law baffled with a sceptical expression on his tired face. He sucked in the rest of the smoke and put out the cigarette. Yoongi trusted Jungkook's judgement and instinct because the younger was down to earth and resolute, so he must have seen something in him to choose to love him." Then there's one thing we can do."

" What do you have in mind?" Jin rubbed his hands, wiggling his eyebrows. He always liked a good plan to spice things up. And if it meant getting rid of that wuss,then all the better!

Yoongi was working on one in his mind. Rather risky but worth it and he wasn't the kind of type to interfere with other people's personal lives. His plan could either have a positive outcome or blow on their faces. But it was a risk he was willing to take if it meant to send SeenHe the fuck away and bring a smile on Kook's face.

First he made a call. It wasn't easy persuading that person to agree with his plan but Yoongi was a skillful man, knowing what buttons to push to get what he wanted.

Once it ended, he winked at Jin, gave him a thumbs up and made another one. They waited for a while till he received confirmation. Yoongi took a note of a specific number and titled back to the couch,a satisfied grin on his face.

" Jin hyung, I'm gonna need your jet."

" You got it!"
