Wrong Crowd - Tom Odell



The sky is peaceful tonight.

Not just the sky but the usual hectic urban city. The little amount of people on the streets and cars that would sometimes zoom down in attempt to escape the cops.

For once, the neighborhood is peacefully quiet.

At least where Taemin is.

Usually in Iodine's territory there was always a mess of gang violence and people fearing to walk the streets at night because of the rivalry scattered here. But ever since the alliance with her and Segas, things have been better.

The violence has stopped.

Survival is not so heavily life threatening as before.

Or so.... They all thought.

Taemin wouldn't be here if that was the case.

Quietly and with a hood up, he walks alongside the bridge with the words that Iodine spoke to him over the phone replaying in his head.

Giving him the instructions on what to do.

The sound of her voice didn't convince him, since she sounded too stern and on edge for it to be just a simple delivery that he has to do. But he trusts her, he's her child after all.

This must be urgent.

So with a brain fogged in only focusing on her words, he sees a figure up ahead standing by the bridge. If it wasn't for the silver suitcase in hand, Taemin would've prepared himself to take his pocket knife out in self-defense in case they were to attack - since that typically happens often with Iodine's children.

That didn't mean he wasn't on the defensive side, ready for anything as he stands before the man.

The two didn't say anything and even if Taemin wanted to say something. The man's face is covered with a black mask and a hood, which didn't exactly help in making him appear approachable. The two are probably the same size, perhaps with him a little taller, but holds onto this rigid posture that can easily intimidate anyone with his silhouette alone.

So Taemin just glances at the suitcase and takes out the roll of money from his pocket, holding it out to him.

The man was looking out to the city of Busan, but then he slowly croaks his head to the side and faces him.

Taemin cautiously takes a step back, keeping a steady eye to the plastic mask conceling the features of the man.

It was hard to tell what the man was looking at whether if it was Taemin or the money in hand, but then he takes the money with his leather gloved hand and holds the suitcase out to him.

Taemin wordlessly takes the suitcase and just like that the man turns around and walks away, leaving a heavy feeling in Taemin's chest as he glances from the suitcase and back to the man before also turning around and proceed to walk away.

Time to be delivery boy.

"Nah - What the - BRO!"

"Hell yeah!"

Jungkook cheers cockily as he hits the 14 stripped ball to one of the holes, chuckling to himself as he sweeps through this game with Namjoon obviously annoyed to the way he still has a lot of his solid colors on the table.
