Jennie

"Wait wait wait, I'm sorry, you what?" Jinyoung uttered, massaging his temple slowly, "Please tell me I didn't hear that right Jennie."

The woman sighed, letting her back rest against the door of her car.

It was show time.

They were alone in the streets, all the other policemen had already left, leaving Jennie and Jinyoung behind. It was the brunette's only chance to convince her partner that she had unfortunately lost their most important evidence. Her chance to prove herself to Rosé while not raising suspicions.

"I lost an evidence." She breathed out, making sure that no one was hiding somewhere, listening to them. "The... The hair. I lost it."

As soon as he heard the words once more, Jinyoung angrily kicked the wheel behind Jennie, making the latter almost Jump in surprise.

"Oh for god's sake Kim, what the fuck?!"

The detective had an angry frown darkening his features, making Jennie almost shiver in dread. If he didn't believe her, she was done for.

"How did you even-" He paused mid sentence as his voice started to raise, before taking a deep breath, finally looking into the brunette's eyes again, "How did you loose it?"

Jennie shrugged, her eyes stuck on her feet. She was shaking a bit, from fear of being caught, but hopefully Jinyoung would just think that she genuinely felt terrible.

"I don't know, a second I had it and the next..." She trailed, and her partner released a low sigh.

"Did you look for it?"

"What do you think?!" Jennie exclaimed, "I looked everywhere, I swear! It's like it disappeared!"

"Fucking-" Jinyoung shook his head, "What are we gonna do now? God Jennie, we could've had her DNA! Do you realize that?!"

Jennie's eyebrows furrowed, "Yeah, yeah I do Jinyoung. God- of course I do!" She shook her head, looking up at her partner with a pleading gaze, her eyes sparkling slightly. "Please... please don't tell the captain about it."

Jinyoung seemed surprised by her request as he took a step back, "You can't... you can't ask me that?"

The brunette gulped, finally allowing the tears she had been holding to fall. "I know I'm asking a lot, and I'm so sorry... But you know how much he hates me, right?"

Jinyoung kept on staring at the brunette with his eyebrows furrowed.

"If he finds out I lost it... Hell, he'll immediately suspend me, or worse and- I can't have that, I need this job, I don't have anyone else..."

She noticed his gaze soften as she said the word and mentally gave herself a pat on her back at this.

"I'm begging you... just don't say a thing, we can pretend it just doesn't exist, no one even knows about it beside us. There wasn't any CCTV in the bathroom, no one will know... please Jinyoung."

"I-" He sighed, "F-Fine, okay, I won't say a thing just... calm down."

Her lips curled into a small smile at the words, "Really?"

"Yeah." He sighed, "Yeah really. We'll find another way to find her, it's... okay."

Jennie could tell he was still a big skeptical, but luckily for her Jinyoung was one of the rare person who was still on her side. It was her first time doing such a big mistake, and her partner knew it.

"Thank you so much, god I- I owe you."

"Yeah you do," He scoffed, a ghost of a smile forming on his lips, "Let's just go back there now, they'll get suspicious." Jinyoung said and Jennie nodded.
