Dude Looks Like A Lady

Chapter 8

Yoongi knew that he had been procrastinating on completing his mission, and chose to spend his hours outside of school trying to find more evidence. Of course, during school hours, he was always with Hoseok and Jimin. Hoseok was very busy with his literature club that week, so Yoongi spent more time with Jimin than the peach haired boy.

"You have to carry the two, Yoonji. It's just a simple mistake,," Jimin said patiently while he was helping Yoongi with his math homework during study hall, "You seem rather distracted this week."

He just shrugged, and a look of worry crossed Jimin's face, "Are you feeling stressed about school?"

"Kinda?" it wasn't a lie, as keeping up with schoolwork while getting information about the gangs was proving to be a hard thing.

"Why don't we go out for ice cream after school? I'm sure it will help you unwind!"

Yoongi couldn't say no to Jimin's adorable smile, and anyways, he was fine with spending more time with the blonde. The two met by the school gate after school and walked to the strip mall nearby. After they got their ice cream, Yoongi getting mint and Jimin getting strawberry, the two sat at a table outside. A comfortable conversation flowed between them, even though Jimin talked a bit more than Yoongi. But Yoongi would admit that he enjoyed the blonde's company.

He spent more and more time after school around the underground club or the junkyard. However, the second time Yoongi got close to the junkyard, one of the Chained members recognized him from the night of the fight and threatened to beat him up if he didn't leave. So to avoid any trouble, Yoongi stayed away from Chained's territory.

One night, the Friday after the fight, Yoongi was approached in the club by a person with sunglasses, a face mask, and a hood covering their hair, "You've been dropping by pretty often, cutie. Yoonji, right? I'm Jay Jay, since you can't really recognize me with my disguise."

"Mhm. I can say that I enjoy this club," Yoongi was glad that the gang leader had taken a liking to him.

"You never drink, dance, or do anything, I don't think that sitting at the bar by yourself counts as enjoying yourself," he replied in a teasing tone.

With a shrug, Yoongi sent the hooded man a smirk, "What counts as enjoyment to you?"

"I could always show you," Jay Jay responding with a flirty tone.

Against his better judgement, Yoongi left the club, following the gang leader out of the club and out into the dark town. The streetlamps gave little light as the two walked towards the outskirts of town, to the closed down part of the railroad where several abandoned boxcars lied. Yoongi was feeling a little wary as the area was pretty sketchy, but knew he would have to get closer to Jay Jay to uncover his secrets.
Before knocking on the door of a blue box car, Jay Jay took of his hood, revealing a head of peach hair. Seeing his hair made Yoongi's stomach drop, as he knew someone else with the same shade. It could just be popular, though, as many other people had peach hair.

The doors of the boxcar opened, revealing a group of masked teenagers wearing either the Sanguine symbol or the Chained symbol somewhere on their bodies, screaming and dancing, with loud music playing. As the two stepped in, Yoongi turned to Jay Jay with an eyebrow raised.

"Why are both Chained and Sanguine members here? Don't you guys hate each other?" he asked in a confused tone.

Jay Jay shook his head, "Nah.We just fight each other to show off and have some squabbles over territory."

"Also, isn't this just like the club, but a little smaller?"

A laugh escaped the oranged haired man's mouth, "I guess, but I swear you're gonna have more fun than at the club."

After the night was over, Yoongi had to agree. There were no words to explain that night, other than fucking awesome. Jay Jay somehow convinced Yoongi to dance and do a bunch of dumb stuff, like a huge-ass pillow fight that ended up with feathers everywhere and spray painting some guy's shirt. The rest of the night was an insane blur of confetti and flying red solo cups.

Jay Jay walked Yoongi back home, and as the adrenaline left the ravenet's system, he felt guilt crawling up his spine at enjoying his time instead of collecting information. But he couldn't say that he completely regretted it.

"You should come back tomorrow evening, we got an even cooler night planned."

Not missing a beat, Yoongi said yes, and, after waving goodbye, Jay Jay turned and walked away. Without a bit of hesitation, Yoongi was back at the boxcar the next evening. A few minutes later, was in a car with a group of teenagers: Jay Jay, a Sanguine member named V (these gang members really liked having letters as their names), Phantom, the leader of Chained, and Eomma, a member of Chained. They were heading to a nearby burger joint. The teens ended up throwing fries and other stuff from the table at each other and being kicked out. The rest of the night was spent spray painting random places around town and running from police, ending with a small bonfire and sparklers. Yoongi could easily say it was one of the most fun nights he ever had.

As the teens were chatting around the bonfire, V and Eomma started to tease Jay Jay about his sudden attachment to Yoongi.

With a teasing tone, Eomma said, "You've never brought a girl here before."

Giggling along with Eomma, V yelled out, "We all know you like her, Hobi!"

The joking atmosphere suddenly changed, V's visible cheeks paling as he realized his slip up. Yoongi stared at Jay Jay with wide eyes, not wanting what he heard to be true.
"Hoseok?"

Slowly, Jay Jay reached up to pull off his mask and sunglasses, revealing the heart shaped lips and bright eyes of Hoseok. Yoongi's heart dropped, as what he thought earlier in the week was true; that Hoseok was the leader of Sanguine.
