eleven.

Jeongguk shuddered in the evening breeze, cringing slightly at the smell of weed filling his nostrils. He side-eyed the source beside him and then glanced at his phone to see that it was five in the afternoon.

"Is the weed bothering you that much?" Yoongi glanced at the man who had been giving him disgusted looks every now and then, he scoffed when Jeongguk nodded, "But you smoke?"

"Like occasionally," Jeongguk rolled his eyes and checked the time once again, "I think my secretary smokes weed," he spoke in a rather disappointed tone which offended Yoongi a tad bit, "But he said it was his friends and he was just holding it for him- pretty sure he's fucking lying,"

"Stop being so rude, he's just a kid," Yoongi shook his head in disbelief at Jeongguk's behaviour. He knew that Jeongguk wasn't that much older than Taehyung, but he believed as an elder Jeongguk should do better.

Jeongguk just ignored him, "Are you done with that weed? I don't wanna be seen with it, I have enough rumours going around," Jeongguk let out a stressed sigh and watched Yoongi take the last drag, "You should be more careful too,"

"Yeah yeah," Yoongi waved his hand about and placed them both in his pockets once they started to walk again. They were previously standing by Yoongi's back gate, the plan was to fix his gate but it ended up with him getting high.

"I have to take Taehyung for a free meal today because I told him I would if he let me do professionalism training,"Jeongguk explained even though he knew Yoongi wasn't listening anymore, "But he's still not here-"

"Fuck what if like the paparazzi comes right now and my dog starts fucking sniffing me which just reveals I'm high as shit," Yoongi fearfully spoke and stood in front of his front door rather reluctant to step inside.

Jeongguk let his shoulders drop on his sides and let a sigh escape, "Just go inside, I'm going back to mine," he patted a goodbye on the man's back and walked back to his black car. One thing he was always proud of was how his car was clean enough to reflect him.

He sat inside and took his phone out to text his secretary about the training.

Jeongguk put his phone down and stressfully rubbed his temples. He exhaled shortly and started up his car. Although he usually didn't go out much without a bodyguard, he decided to this time because he hadn't eaten for a while now and wasn't able to wait for another hour. It wasn't anything big, just a sandwich that was enough to cure his hunger for a bit.

It was sad eating alone, but he was used to the strangeness of it. Jeongguk sat in his car alone, parked in some parking lot and ate his sandwich in silence. He hated moments like this; all alone doing things that he'd much rather enjoy with someone else — but he couldn't. He knew there was no one he could trust enough to have a comfortable chat with whilst eating.

Of course he had his best friends of many years, but he had put on the 'I don't need anyone and I hate everyone' persona for far too long to suddenly get soft. The thought of it made the sandwich in his mouth taste bitter and eventually he placed the half eaten piece down.
