Marcella was glaring daggers at Jimin, tapping her long, black polished fingers on her knee, looking at him through narrowed eyes.
After throwing the one liner at her he had gone back to ignoring her and frantically typing in his phone. She guessed he was giving directions to his spy minions.
Or perhaps playing a very intense fruit ninja game.
Jimin sighted annoyed, he was very aware of her glares and annoyed sighs, yet had chose to ignore her. It was all a part of his game.
The silver haired boy locked his phone and looked up at her with tired eyes. It was a very good chance to corner her now that his hyungs weren't there to mess it up.
"If you bite your tongue any harder you'll bleed," he commented at her attempts to stay silent. "Go ahead, tell me what you want. No reason to start being cautious now that you've already screwed up. Big time."
She scoffed raising a chin stubbornly.
"I did nothing wrong."
"I beg to differ," his tone was harsh.
"Did you really had to point a gun at me?" She questioned irritated.
"Do you really have to be this stubborn?" Jimin retorted.
Marcella simply stared.
"I thought we were past this shit."
"Aww, what's the matter? Did I hurt our Scarlet's feelings?" he teased.
"What's up with that name?" Marcella questioned.
Jimin shrugged. "It suits you."
"I thought we could trust each other. I didn't think we were friends, but I thought we had an understanding of sorts," she sounded sad. "Obviously I was wrong. I'm sorry for misunderstanding."
"You didn't misunderstand," Jimin said pinching the bridge of his nose.
Marcella hid a smile. Guilt trip; accomplished.
"We do have an understanding of sorts," Jimin further explained. "I respect and admire you as a person, but business is business. Bangtan comes first, always."
"I know that, I understand and respect that as yell," she clarified. "But, seriously, is it that easy for you to just kill me?"
"It should be," there was no hesitation in his tone. "One doesn't take away from the other. Make no mistake, Marcella, no matter how close we might get to each other, no matter how much I like you, if I ever suspect that you are plotting against us I will terminate you. This goes for all the Bangtan members."
