Work Text:
The clouds are so peaceful. Moving slowly at their own pace. Forming and breaking up into new shapes.
They say as long as you look up into that peaceful scene you won't have a worry in the world. There's simply nothing to stress about.
Just a beautiful blue sky and floating balls of white fluff.
But sometimes it gets too bright.
Sometimes the sun shines so brightly it becomes too much for the eye to handle.
Sometimes what Jungkook needed was complete darkness.
Complete darkness and silence,
a fuzzy blanket keeping him in a warm pocket of air,
and his soft mattress underneth him.
"WAA WAA WAA, MY SOLE SOURCE OF PLEASURE COMES FROM SEEING YOU SLEEP DEPRIVED WAAAAA" his alarm clock rang.
Jungkook let out a groan, long, deep, and full of hate, into his pillow.
Dispite his alarm clock jungkook didn't move, his heavy body fit perfectly into his bed. His muscles didn't want to move and his tired eye seemed to naturally fell shut and really who was Jungkook to go against nature?
It was then that his phone started ringing.
"RIIINNGG RIINGGG RIINNGG, MUHAHHAHHHAHAHAHHAHHAH WORK DOESN'T CARE IF YOU'RE SLEEPY!!!! RING RING RING RIIIIIIINNNGGG"
Jungkook, who was still lying motionless as his phone and alarm taunted him, with his face still stuffed into his pillow, internally signed in defeat.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Every day for the past three years Jungkook's been walking down the same halls.
At first, he was shy and timid, as one usually is when placed in a new environment. He'd wonder what exactly he was supposed to do, where to go, who to talk to. When he walked down the halls he'd have his ID prominantly around his neck, and his hands in front of him holding random files.
Jungkook and his big doe eyes, would stop and politely greet any higher-up he'd walk by - which was basically everyone.
'prepared, polite, and professional' is what Jungkook aimed to be.
yeah, it's safe to say things have changed.
"Jungkook can I have a moment with you?"
Maybe it was simply a part of growing older,
maybe it was just him settling,
maybe he'd just gotten tired of his coworkers shit.
but whatever the reason, that previous Jungkook was now just a fond memory in his teasing coworker's heads.
Jungkook kicks his chair back from his desk and faced his boss "yea what's up?"
"Take a look at these"
Jungkook kicked his feet up on his own desk, head tilted and eyebrows drawn in while he looked through the papers just handed to him.
His boss - Kim Seokjin, stole another chair and sat by him,
"Kim Namjoon, 26, born and raised in America, Recently made plans to visit Korea for a meeting with SM entertainment regarding international promotions or some jazz like that." Seokjin rattles out.
"you think he's up to something? fraud?"
"oh no?"
" Something darker?" He leans forward "Extortion?"
Jungkook rattles off typical white-collar crimes but he stops himself when he notices the look on his boss's face.
He's got a distant look on his face. A soft smile, unfocused eyes, and he's gently shaking his head to each of Jungkook's guesses, was he even listening?
"umm so what did he do?"
"Hmm? Oh Nothing but don't you think he's hot?"
"I-" Jungkook groans "I'm sick of you're bullshit Hyung" Jungkook slaps the papers down on his desk.
"what?!"
"We are a private detective agency! and we're both supposed to be working right now, not discussing your latest obsessions"
Seokjin, who's now gotten up, places both hands on Jungkooks shoulders "ahh Jungkookie, when will you become a Junggramcracker and finally grow up"
Jungkook physically cringes away but he can't really do much to escape from his bosses heavy hands "such a fine young man wasting away because he's always working."
"you're acting like you're so old" Jungkook rolls his eyes and manages to wiggle out of his bosses hands.
"ya know back in the day they used to call me worldwide handsome?"
While Jungkook groans another coworker from across the room yells "-And I used to be the tallest guy in school!"
They all turn to the speaker who sat at his desk across the room. His coworker bellowed for the room to hear
"They used to call me Park Everest! I was so tall!"
The who room erupts into giggles but none as loud or rowdy as Seokjin or the man himself, Park Jimin.
"ah good one Minnie"
It's at this point Jimin gets off his ass and comes over to Jungkook's desk where apparently they're having a meetup at now.
"Oh-" Jimin stops in his tracks right in front of Jungkook, "oh man you look even worse up close"
Jin nudges him "shh- I was trying not to point it out"
"Thanks, guys"
Jimin-his elder by a whole damn 29 days- asserts his dominance by sitting right on top of Jungkook's desk.
"What're you bothering him with today hyung?"
"His names Kim Namjoon"
"sounds businessy, fraud?"
Jungkook pipes up "that's what I said!"
Jin sighs "his only crime is stealing my heart"
Jimin gives a cheeky smile "you mean ruining your underwear?"
And just like that Jimin's being thrown off the desk and is rolling on the floor laughing while Jin continues to throw things at him.
-important things from Jungkook's desk.
"can you jerks do this somewhere else?" Poor Jungkook tries to speak over Jin yelling and Jimin giggling.
Jungkook knew the answer before neither of them replied.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It was intimidating the first time Jungkook had entered the eating area of his workplace.
There were men and women, in suits, munching on their toast or drinking their coffee as they typed on their tablets or looked over papers.
Now, Jungkook was one of those very people.
He hears another chair being pulled from his table and knows someone has taken a seat beside him. He doesn't looking up until the last few words of his email are typed.
When he looks up from his tablet he's not suprised to see Jimin.
"Someone's stressed, can't even stop working for lunch?"
"Well maybe I would've been done if jin hadn't thrown half my desk at you this morning"
Jimin laughs but Jungkook goes on, "no really, I can't get my favourite pen to start working now and all my papers are crumpled! he does this every time and it's getting ridiculous he thinks I have all this time for him to waste!"
So maybe jungkook went a bit too hard and maybe that sounded a bit more angry than intended but, well he was tired and coffee deprived and buried up to his forehead in work.
"hey kookie," Jimin makes his voice softer " are you actually mad at Seokjin?"
Jungkook sighs and leans back in his chair "mad, no, annoyed, a little"
Jimin lets Jungkook continue
"Just- I've been getting all this boring paperwork and no real fieldwork, and I don't even have a chance at any fieldwork until I get this shit done, I just wish he'd lay off a bit, find someone else to talk about his crushes to? why's he even need to do that at work?"
"well..that Kim Namjoon was pretty handsome"
Jungkook bites his tongue refusing to admit anything.
Suddenly Jimin's close, and looking Jungkook dead in the eye. His eyes are practically sparkling.
"you want a mission jungkook?"
"yea..." he draws says the word slowly, unsure
"well how about this, we hit out two birds with one stone and take on 'Operation get Seokjin a boyfriend'"
there's a pause "...what?"
"I'll do some digging on this Kim Namjoon guy and then you can swoop in and befriend him! once you're close enough you can introduce him to Jin! Jin will have a new person to spend his time bothering, and you get to do some fieldwork!"
"..and Jin won't question me suddenly introducing him to Kim Namjoon?"
"The real question is 'will Jin care?'"
It's a stupid plan. Jimin knows it. In all honesty he was just trying to cheer his friend up.
But it seems the joking tone in Jimin's voice had flown miles over Jungkook's head.
Jungkook, with sparkles in his wide and excited eyes, looks Jimin dead in the eye and says-
"that's a dumb plan hyung" he gets up from his seat "If we're doing this we're going to do this right."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
While walking by the window of another tall shiny building he catches a glimpse of himself. Like Jimin had said earlier, he did look worse up close.
It was mainly the heavy black bags under his eyes that stood out and made him seem so tired, but there was also his dried and chewed up lips, unhealthily pale skin, and long curly hair desperately needing a cut.
Basically, Jungkook looked like the man who first interviewed him for his current job. That man had recently retired. he had a whole goodbye party and Jungkook swears he didn't even know that the old man was capable of smiling so much.
It's not like he was mean or grumpy. Jungkook actually liked him a lot. He just always seemed tired. The day he left he seemed like a new man. Jungkook tried not to think about it too much and give himself a crisis. this job was his passion.
of course, there was that small voice in Jungkook's head
'well, maybe you should find something else along with your job, maybe a lover~?'
unfortunately, Jungkook had had this thought before, and today was not going to be the day he listened to it.
tall shiny buildings. That was the city he lived in. packed roads. bright signs. herds of people everywhere.
Jungkook was dressed up. A full suit and tie with a briefcase in his hand.
He weaved past the crowds of people, sidestepping them with skill.
He barely even has to shove anyone, an impressive feat when you take into account that Jungkook was surrounded by moving people on all four sides.
His goal was inside the very building he was walking beside. A building so big he'd been walking past it for nearly five minutes and still hadn't reached the door.
SM entertainment.
The largest entertainment company in the country and as of a few years, has been growing at a tremendous rate worldwide.
It wasn't through luck, Lee Minhyuk, an employee who has since been promoted to the head of marketing, noticed a small group of international fans interested in one of their particularly popular groups 'DADDIES'
he had presented a marketing plan to make both SM and their artists worldwide renowned.
The man had big ideas and they'd taken him places.
If only those big ideas were his.
"what was the guy's name?"
Jungkooks hears Jimin sigh through his earpiece "Kim Taehyung- but that doesn't matter we're here for Namjoon! not Taehyung!"
"yea but maybe I could like, punch that Lee guy for him"
"Jeez"
Jungkook hears the low hum in his ear fade meaning Jimin had left. 'jerk'
'That guy single-handedly twisted the fate of one of the biggest industries in Korea and gets his fucking work stolen! that's so unfair!'
Jungkook shakes his head, this was just going to give him a headache. 'Kim Namjoon! I have to focus on Kim Namjoon.'
Upon entering the building he immediately walked straight to the front desk. A large crowded room filled with busy people, both employees and customers all caught up in their own business. Jungkook's own mirror shined shoes tapped against the black tiled floor as he made a beeline for his target.
There was a long sleek black desk with several secretaries standing side by side each with, a line of clients formed in front of them.
'Long brown hair, a bright red hat,'
Jungkooks eyes scan across the many brown-haired ladies standing behind the counter
'pink lipstick, diamond stud earrings,'
A blond woman finishes helping one man and calls the next client over.,
'an olive green ribbon around her neck,'
Jungkook casually nears the right end of the counter. The woman there looks away from her computer and so happens to catch Jungkook's eye over her client's shoulder.
'And blue eyes - found you'
he approached the woman who had already returned to help the man in front of her
"Welcome back Mr.Lee" she greets him
"great to be back" he responds cooly.
she discreetly motioned to the door behind her before continuing her work.
Jungkook confidently fixed his collar as he struted into the restricted area.
He went from a hallway to a larger space with desks lined up in rows, with men and women in professional attire scattered around. It was a much quieter and cooler area, had a very professional atmosphere.
'if only our office was more like this' Jungkook thought.
He didn't stay too long, or waste to much time looking around, Jungkook kept moving and soon he found himself walking down another wide hallway, empty and quiet save for the sound of his own footsteps.
White walls, and black floors, a plain and simple look that matched the rest of this building. 'lame'
Suddenly Jungkook turns a corner and sees another man walking his way. He had nice black shoes, a full suit and tie on his tall frame, and a secretary walking beside him.
Jungkook makes sure to smile and nod as they pass each other and the man noded back not giving Jungkook a second thought. This was one of the things Jungkook loved about working with bigger organizations. You'd think they'd be more secure but really all it takes is good posture and a nice suit.
Finally, Jungkook reaches his destination, the elevator.
Infront of the elevator stand two other men, who seem to be in their own discussion. Jungkook doesn't let this slow him down and once again proceeds with confidence.
"Hello gentlemen"
Both men halt their discussion and the shorter of the two turns and greets him politely.
"either of you got the time?" Jungkook asks them.
This leads to the shorter man pulling up his sleeve to check his watch.
Suddenly Jungkook hears static and Jimin's voice pops in his ear "holy shit is that a Rolex?"
"It's almost 5" The man answered in his deep voice.
"Oh my god that voice! Jungkook make him talk more!"
"Right on time for my meeting then," Jungkook says with a playful tone.
Jungkook trys to focus but he ends up distracted by Jimin's rambling in his ear.
He doesn't notice the pause and look of realization that crosses the other mans face.
"ah, you aren't by any chance meeting with Kim Namjoon?"
Jungkook's easy-going smile tightened "oh" he laughs "how'd you guess that"
the other man politely laughs with him "It's a pleasure to meet you....Mr.Gee?"
"Lee actually" Jungkook corrects "Lee Minhyuk"
The man with the rolex nods and introduces himself "Min Yoongi and this is my assistant, Kim Taehyung" he motions to the other man beside him.
Kim Taehyung, a man taller than Yoongi and only a bit shorter than Jungkook, smiled brightly while making direct eye contact.
Jungkook immediately felt threatened. His gaurd was up as he smiled and shook Taehyung's hand.
"It's a pleasure to meet you as well, Mr.Lee"
"Jungkook That's the guy that got his work stolen! he fucking knows Minhyuk your cover is blown! fuck go to the bathroom! get out of there! 'operation get Jin a boyfriend' is not worth a follow up 'get jungkook out of jail for illegal impersonation!"
'Well shit' Jungkook feels his lip twitch.
Taehyung grabs everybodies attention with a loud and dramatic sigh of relief "Finally!" he yells.
The elevator had finally arrived and Taehyung wasted no time rushing in, accidentally shoving Jungkook in with him. Min Yoongi follows suit and before Jungkook could get a word out the elevator doors are shutting right in front of his face.
"THAT RAT! THAT WAS SO ON PURPOSE" Jimin screeched into Jungkook's ear so loudly he was afraid the other men could hear.
"ah sorry about that sir, got a bit excited!" Taehyung apologized sheepishly.
Jungkook returned the smile while discreetly running a hand through his hair and behind his ear so he could temporarily turn off his earpiece.
The small metal box began climbing the building and If there was one thing Jungkook didn't expect, it was for Kim taehyung to be such a chatterbox.
"You Just arrived back from America right! ah how was your trip, I hope the flight was comfortable, I heard you were assisted by Mr.bang"
"a-ah yes that's right" Jungkook wanted to slap himself across the face for the way he let his voice stutter. Luckily Taehyung doesn't seem to care about Jungkook's responses at all.
"I heard he has major flight diarrhea"
"yes, he- excuse me what?"
"like flying just does stuff to his colon or something! I'm not sure, but I think it's a real condition- I mean my aunt can't even stand being in airports without feeling sick to her stomach....well then again her ex did fuck a flight attendant on their flight to their honeymoon destination so there's that- hey you think something like that happened to Mr.Bang?"
'does professionalism not exist on elevators?'
"I'm sorry to hear that-"
"yeah-yeah so really I was worried the whole time for him really I -"
While Taehyung went on speaking way to fast, there was a beeping in Jungkooks ear and he resisted the urge to roll his eyes. 'that was quick.'
"Jungkook! one- don't even think about doing that again you brat! two- be careful he's fucking with you! Minhyuk was accompanied by a lady called Jang Yeeun, who even is Mr.Bang? I think he's just blatantly making stuff up"
'So that's how it's going to be?' Jungkook thought.
Taehyung was still in the middle of his rambling when Jungkook interrupted him
"OH NO!" he speaks a bit to loudly just to catch their attention. "oh my, it seems you've been misinformed!!! I've been travelling with Kim Seokjin."
"I-I beg your pardon?"
Jungkook smiles 'he's been thrown off'
The elevator doors open. He walks out first and doesn't wait for the two other men to follow. Of course, they come rushing behind him anyway.
"Wait sir!" he hears Taehyung call.
Of course, he only walks faster trying to come up with an escape route.
Suddenly a cold hand is gripping his arm and Jungkook is stopped in his tracks. It was Min Yoongi, who had somehow caught him
"What's the rush Mr.Lee? we're both going the same way"
he says those words like they're a threat. With a condesending smile and tilted head.
Jungkooks shivers.
"Hot"
Jungkook almost gags.
"I-I'll be heading straight to my meeting actually"
"Great we'll both go together!"
"To the meeting with Mr.Kim?"
"Yes"
"Mr.Min.... you aren't invited" Why did Jungkook suddenly feel like a kindergartener? he internally cringed at his own words.
"Oh, haven't you heard?"
Mr.Min says with a strangely adorable gummy smile
"There's been some last-minute change of planes, the other executives couldn't make it so I will be accompanying you to the meeting"
Jungkook stared in disbelief "huh"
"-and me too!" Taehyung pipes up.
Jungkook couldn't figure out who he liked to talk to the least.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"look Jungkook, they probably know you're lying, it's your call from here on bro, don't risk anything, I'm going to get ramen," and just like that Jimin was gone.
Jungkook, Yoongi, and Taehyung walked side by side until they reached the thankfully near the conference room.
It was rather average in Jungkook's opinion, there was a large oval table taking up the majority of the room with water bottles placed in front of each black leather seat.
Mr.Min makes it a point to sit right beside Jungkook.
It was all right though, if things went according to plan Jungkook would be moving seats soon enough.
Taehyung stood behind his boss.
and then, silence.
They were the only ones in the room.
A feq seconds pass before Jungkook asks.
"You won't be taking a seat Mr.Kim?" He asks Taehyung
The man snorts "Where? on your lap?"
Jungkooks eyes widen and Taehyung went rigid "I-" he clears his throat "excuse me, that was uncalled for, no I'll be taking a seat after our guest have all been seated" Jungkook nods not bothering to point out how aimless the act was, he coughs and hoped no one had seen him blush.
The room falls silent again.
Taehyung audibly gulps and lets out a low hum.
Jungkook firmly cleared his throat once, hoping to regain his confidence.
Taehyung apparently felt the same and let out a low rumble as he cleared his throat yet again.
unfortunately, all the clearing of throats had actually made Jungkook's throat feel dry, so he grabbed a bottle of water from the table and gulps down half the bottle.
He- of course- clears his throat again while screwing the cap shut.
He places the bottle back on the table with a small thud.
There was a single heartbeat of silence that hung between the three men before Mr.Kim could be heard clearing his throat again for reasons unknown.
Jungkook, being the person he is, suddenly felt challenged and responded by aggressively clearing his throat. very loud and very clear.
Taehyung hadn't picked up on Jungkook's competitiveness and had begun doing his own thing, he started doing vocal exercises to properly prepare his throat for usage.
Jungkook took a deep breath in using his full chest capacity and was ready to clear his throat into the next dimension when the familiar voice made him scramble.
"Target Kim Namjoon just exited the elevator and is making his way toward the conference room, he's joined by only two associates." Jimin says between loud obnoxious chewing noises.
"Uh-huh!" Jungkook accidentally replies out loud. Taehyung and Yoongi give him a weird look.
"Jungkook listen carefully." Jimin quickly slurps in another mouthful of ramen "I don't know what happened but there has been a change in plans! The meeting is just going to be you, and Mr.Min, the others that were supposed to show up aren't showing!"
Jungkook noticed before anyone else, he heard the sound of footsteps approaching the door and the click of the door nob turning. Before Taehyung and Yoongi had properly processed that someone new was entering the room Jungkook was already on his feet.
The door cracked open, It's entrancing like these that truly deserve background music.
A smaller unimportant man opens the door and holds it for the others to get through.
First came in the tallest, Kim Namjoon, his expression cool and neutral, hair perfectly styled and dyed blond. He wore a gorgeous black suit with thin white stripes that fit him perfectly.
Behind him came a slightly shorter man, broad and obviously muscular with a bright blue suit and a buzz cut.
He took off his round sunglasses and hung them from his blue breast pocket.
Lastly entered a woman the same height as the other man. She walked in with a bright red suit, had shoulder-length hair, thinly framed glasses that sat low on her nose and a beauty mark above her lips.
One hand was holding some obviously important files the other she used to push her glasses up the bridge of her nose.
This was Kim Namjoon and his Team. Some of the highest-ranking individuals from one of America's most successful chains.
This was Kim Namjoon, CEO of McDonald's.
Today they were here to discuss the revolutionary cross over between happy meals and kpop.
The industry Kim Namjoon works for is known for its mind-blowing ability to addict people, from all ages and all backgrounds.
Hopefully, with enough persuasion Lee Minhyuk could gain access to this companies secrets.
Too bad he couldn't be here
Also, too bad Kim Namjoon's cool entrance was ruined, because the moment he set foot past the door Jungkook crossed the room and ran into his cheast. "AH NAMJOON-AH GOOD TO SEE SAY"
His two assistants hop away looking at their boss in confusion, Min Yoongi at this point has also gotten up from his seat but was frozen in place.
"How was your flight man? did the plane gas get ya? " Jungkook laughs loudly while smacking Namjoons back as if they were old friends.
Namjoon clears his throat "It was quite all right Mr.Lee, thank you for asking"
"awe you can still can me Hyung," he says to the man much older than him "with the way you drank last time, I think it's quite all right we talk informally!"
"drank?"
"At the cross over the campaign with victoria secret!" Jungkook exclaims because what better way to give exposition than through excessive shouting.
He rests an arm on Namjoon's shoulder
"M'lovin Victoria's Secret" Jungkook laughs "amazing world play as always pal!"
Namjoons face drains of colour. That was the night he'd drank a bit to much and turned his night into a haze of fuzzy memories.
luckily nothing scandal worthy came of it.
Namjoon, bless his poor soul, tries desperately to remember what the man was talking about, but he couldn't and didn't want to be rude..so he just went along with it. Exactly how Jimin and Jungkook had planned.
"Of course Hyung," Namjoon gives a forced smile "let's get straight to it than"
And that's how their meeting starts.
Jungkook sits next to Namjoon. Very close to Namjoon.
He scooted his chair over as close as he could to thean and hadn't for a moment dropped his friendly smile.
Yoongi was sitting opposite to them along with taehyung who had now taken a seat.
The man and woman Namjoon had brought with him had originally tried to sit on opposite ends of their boss but becaue of Jungkook, the male, Jackson wang was sitting beside Namjoon and the female, Kim Hyuna, was uncomfortably sitting next to Jungkook.
and so the meeting began.
The boring meeting where Jungkook just played with his feet and Mr.Min did the absolute worst job ever at convincing Namjoon to sign their contract.
"so wait, you didn't specify the percentage cut? how much-"
"oh cause there are none"
"I- um sorry?"
Mr.Min smiles "we don't like cuts so we'll be keeping all 100%"
Namjoon lets out a slow laugh thinking Yoongi was joking.
Mr.Min keeps staring with a straight face.
"Neither do I, unnecessary loss is never welcomed, so lets talk, how much of the total earning will go to my corporation?"
"...Well I suppose we could lend a few dollars since you're clearly desperate" Yoongi mutters
Jungkook spends the whole 7 hour meeting trying not to laugh.
Jimin, who was listening in, was absolutely having the time of his life, howling loudly into Jungkook's ear.
occasionally Namjoon would ask Jungkook what he thought of the issue. A desperate attempt to escape Mr.Mins madness.
Every time this happened j
Jungkook would simply ask Taehyung what is opinion was.
There was no longer a need for words. The look they gave each other from across the table as Yoongi tourchered Namjoon was enough.
They were allies.
Eventually when the two had strung out the meeting as long as they possibly could,
hours after the point where Namjoon was begging them just to drop the deal and let him go,
everyone got up and shook hands.
"It's a shame we couldn't meet eye to eye. I hope this one event won't stop you from reaching out in the future. "
Namjoon, a smart indivdual could translate that for himself "never come back" is what Min Yoongi probabaly wanted to say.
And so Namjoon nodded his head "you don't need to worry Mr.Min"
It was all good and done, Taehyung had a satisfied smirk on his face and Jungkook was happy he was happy.
Lee Minhyuk would never do business with any brand under Kim Namjoon's name.
Teahyung had obviously gotten his revenge
Now it was Jungkook's turn to put his plan into action.
"well ain't that sad!" he throws his arm around Namjoon who was getting really annoyed
"Mr.Lee"
"uh-uh-uh" Jungkook scolds like a mother
Namjoons sigh "Hyung"
"Jungkook you fucking brat!"
Jimin yelled through his mic while laughing. Oh how sore Jimin's cheecks and stomach were after all that laughter.
Jungkook had a shit-eating grin as he could see it all coming together nicely.
"let's go drinking man! I think we all could use a drink after that" Jungkook loosens his tie and rolls his shoulders as if he had done any real work for the past few hours
"I'm not sure Mr- " Namjoon catches himself "Hyung"
"Come on! this place I know has some serious eye candy too" he elbows Namjoon while winking
"I-" Namjoon groans for a moment losing his professionality "alright" he agrees, probably just really wanting to get drunk at this point. "let's go Minhyuk-hyung"
"wooho! Time to par-tay!" Taehyung yells effectively inviting himself and yoongi.
"Let's get it Mr.Lee!"
"You know it Mr.Kim!"
'This place is cursed' Namjoon cried behind his smile
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Seokjin looks at himself in the full-length mirror. his thick black hair is gelled back making him look like a prince.
His face looking angelic as ever, thick pointed eyebrows shaping his eyes, plump lips tinted red, and his plush cheeks had a natural blush.
"Worldwide handsome strickes again" he winks to his own reflection.
"hurry up would you!"
Jimin, who'd been rushing him for a while was anxiously checking his phone.
"What's the rush mochi" through the mirror Jin sees Jimin standing behind him clearly annoyed.
Jin bit back a smile, he was ready but thought he'd tease his freind just a bit more.
"Hyung~ really how much longer?"
"Let me just~" Seokjin drags out the word as he looks over himself one last time.
He moves a strand of his hair which naturally falls back after seokjin moved it.
"Alright lets go!"
Jimin smiles hoping Jungkook wasn't having too hard of a time holding Namjoon's attention
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
low lights, no loud music but a general loud setting crowded with people everywhere. The businessmen had taken seats on red bar stools and had already lost track of the time.
The first thing that happened when they walked in was Namjoon offering to pay for everyone's drinks.
The second thing that happened was Namjoon asking the bartender to fill a beer glass with hard liquor and let him down it.
The third thing that happened was the bartender, who introduced himself as Jung hoseok, sat down and asked Namjoon if he was alright.
Jungkook thought he'd have to do a lot of work keeping Namjoon engaged till Seokjin arrived but luckily Namjoon had a lot to get off his cheast.
Namjoon and the bartender began a conversation that would last for hours.
And while Namjoon spilled his heart out everyone else took advantage of the open tab and began drinking.
"Poor guy, really went through a lot today," Taehyung says
"That would be your fault" Jungkook gives him a pointed look.
Taehyung smiles devilishly.
"I don't think we've properly said hi, hello! I'm Kim Taehyung, recently worked in marketing for SM entertainment! I like puppies and my best friend is Min Yoongi, I'm fluent in English and recently got revenge on my arch enemy, Lee Minhyuk!"
They both share a grin.
" Alrighy Yoongi you're next-Yoongi?" They look around but Yoongi is nowhere to be seen.
Jungkook, just to be sure, turns around and checks on Namjoon. luckily he was still there with Hoseok at the other side of the bar.
"that low-life introverted cat"
Jungkook clears his throat "I guess that would make me next"
"As if I hadn't had enough of your voice today"
"rude" Jungkook says but they both know it's just joke.
"joking! joking! go on!"
"My name is Jeon Jungkook" Taehyung quietly repeats the name to himself
"I currently work for a private detective agency. I like working out and getting a full nights sleep, I hate paperwork and alarm clocks, and I recently completed one of my missions."
"So you're like a secret agent!" Taehyungs mouth is open and his eyes are wide, he physically bounces in his seat like a kid.
Jungkook- who spends most of his days at his desk and who is definitely not a spy- nods.
He nods and even throws in a cooky smile "basically I mean yeah"
"Oh my god, what were you doing here?"
"Well I was just here to meet Kim Namjoon, to be honest"
"lame, my revenge seems way cooler. Did you see us completely suck his soul! he'll never work with SM again"
"poor Minhyuk"
"Hey by the way what happened to Minhyuk? Me and Yoongi planned to have him there."
Jungkook shrugs "We called his secretary and changed the meeting date"
"Seriously? that fucking idiot"
"yeah, actually I already know your story"
"figured, you're a spy right, guess you already looked into all this"
"y-yep all part of the job" Jungkooks voice comes out higher than intended.
"Well then you know what a dick is."
"Yeah actually, I kind of hate him, you deserved better"
Taehyung nods solemnly before speaking again.
"hey, I know this is a little forward but, I've always wanted to know a spy! let's keep in touch, yeah?"
Taehyung should have had flowers blooming behind bim as he tilted his head just a bit and smiled purely.
"S-sure! we can screw over all your enemies together!"
Taheyung leans forward and places a hand on Jungkooks knee "I'd like that"
Jungkook's face heats up and turns red, and his voice becomes is strained.
"O-okay"
Jungkook's phone goes off "ah excuse me" Jungkook says shyly before checking his phone.
park everest: look behind you
park everest : mission accomplished
"Hey look looks like Mr.Kim's got a date" Yaehyung motions with his head
Jungkook turns around and smiles brightly at the scene infront of him.
The place where Hoseok sat was now taken up by Seokjin.
Jungkook looks at his boss smiling and laughing all with adoration in his eyes and thinks to himself
'I deserve a raise'
