DEFUNCT [vkook/taekook]

2: unusual decor

A day passed and Jungkook had handled most of the things with Yoongi the day before but he and two others gathered at his home for a shared dinner and some brainstorming.

Since an important day was coming up Jungkook had to trade in his free time for work. As much as he prefers to just slump on his couch with a good book, work goes first. If he doesn't he will get a gun to his head.

"so, you really like this place huh?" Yoongi said while hanging his coat.

"I don't need anything else." Jungkook loved it here for a few years already. He bought it on his own with some help from his mafia relations. Doing it himself fully may bring in some... Complications with legal documents....

"alright. I mean, it's a good spot but just. Why so small, you can afford bigger" yoongi continued. They walked to the table , Hoseok holding the takeout bags. Behind them followed Namjoon.

"i live alone this does fine. Besides, i'm too busy with work to even get bored of the house. I rarely see it."

"what's with the flower?" Hoseok asked noticing an oddly placed flower on a random cupboard.

"ah, i bought it"

"but you-"

"I know, I know. I needed an excuse to go somewhere without looking suspicious. So now i'm stuck with this thing" jungkook waved his hand at it with a frown. He doesn't like plants. They always die, he doesn't get what he is doing wrong. Maybe they sense him and start to decay to get away from him...

"an excuse to see who?" hoseok added with a confused frown. He was not following this whole thing

"some guy he asked info about from Yoongi."

"Then why don't we know about it? Is there a problem again? A spy or something?" hoseok was getting alarmed.

"no, you don't have to know and I want you all to stay away from him. Don't approach him"

"Just tell us what's going on. This conversation is not going anywhere like this!" Hoseok said and flopped down on his seat. The table was already set by now.

"I met an interesting guy, I wanted to find out more so I asked Yoongi to just do some basic research on him. He is an innocent person so he can't be involved in our mess."

"So what I'm hearing is... You like this person?"

"He felt different. I have to check it out..."Jungkook befan filling his plate with the food. "Now drop the subject and eat. We have work to talk about."

"right, about Sunwoh..." Namjoon started. "According to one of our men on the north side, they have spotted him dealing with that foreign guy, forgot his name."

"he means, Harold. That american"

"the american, seriously? He's still here. I thought we told him to leave"

"we did. But apparently he came back and is now setting deals with our competitive 'friend'."

"That does not make me happy," Jungkook muttered. But at the same time it kind of didn't matter that much, he was annoyed his plan got ignored and the American came back but it also gave him again something to do. Something to kill his time with. Because time... He had enough of that available.

"So what will we do about that? We just let him do his thing or confront him?"

"let's follow him. See what he is planning. If he leaves short then there is no need to even get in contact. If he seems to be planning trouble we just wipe him off the ground." Jungkook answered. He took a bite of the bland food and suddenly felt a sharp pain in his chest. He dropped the fork and shut his eyes clasping his shirt.

"It still hurts?" Hoseok asked, a little concerned. Jungkook had this for as long as he can remember. It's not healthy.

"Yeah, but it's fine. I told you not to worry." Jungkook frowned, sounding slightly angry all of the sudden. He had these pains when he made a certain movement or when he was pushing himself too far. It will never go away. He'll always feel it.

The raven rubbed his fingertips over the spot feeling the bumps under his fingers. He sighed and continued eating. "continue"

-

After a good dinner the two guests left. What they needed to talk about was done and finally he can have some alone time. Like mentioned before. He really enjoys his me-time. Yet he wouldn't mind spending it with.... Someone else.

He doesn't know why but lately he has begun to feel a little lonely. Yes he has friends but you just don't have the same connection with friends and co-workers as with a special someone. A partner?

He wants a partner?

"no no, that's not good. I cant start on something like that" jungkook shook his head. He just showered and was drying himself off.

"But I already did something..... Ugh why did it go like this, what's the point." he looked at himself in the mirror and lowered the towel in one hand. With the other he touched his chest scar again. A thick scar line was crossed over the left centre of his chest.

It still hurts. It always does. He just doesn't pay much attention to it anymore. But he'll always feel it.

"He'll pay for this eventually" Jungkook turned around and threw the towel over the hanger before leaving the bathroom and getting changed into something to sleep in.

A huge bed waiting for him with the blankets open. A huge bed that he would rather share with someone warm. Someone who can hold him.

He wasnt a bad person he just got an odd job... But he still longs for this unknown love....
