Jungkook cracks his knuckles and turns off his computer. The luminescent screen fades from vivid colors into black and white shades and ends with a black screen, signaling it has been turned off completely. He stands up and stretches himself, letting out a huff after dangling his long limbs freely by his sides. He is officially done with the documents after nearly an hour of rigorous working on keyboards. Exhaustion is drowning him and most importantly, hunger is eating him up slowly. A serving of food will be a cure for his hunger and since Namjoon is taking Seokjin out for some food, which he assumed was no other than a date, Jungkook decides to leave the police station to Taehyung for maybe twenty minutes in order to buy donuts and coffee for himself and Tae.

"Kookie~ where are you going?" Taehyung softly says and walks to Jungkook, now grabbing his coat and wearing it on.

"I'm going to Baekhyun's." Jungkook flicks his head towards the door, signaling he is going to leave.

"Can I come too?" Taehyung hugs Jungkook's left arm and rubbing his soft brunette hair on it, which those actions cause Jungkook to lightly blush and smile instantly because Tae resembles much like a tiger cub right now, fierce and cute at the same time. However, he doesn't let his cuteness win over.

"No, Tae," Jungkook untangles himself out of Tae's grip, making him straight up his posture and looks at Jungkook with puppy eyes. His eyes glisten and his irises are similar to a star-filled night sky. His blossom pink bottom lip sticks out cutely and Jungkook ruffles Taehyung's brunette hair.

"C'mon Tae," Jungkook smiles and Tae slightly reaches for his hand, aiming to warm it in his big hands but Jungkook retreats his and reaches to turn the doorknob.

"I'll have some donuts and coffee when I'm back," Jungkook winks before leaving. Taehyung shuts the door inaudibly and slides down on it smiling to himself. A blush creeps on his face, dusting his face with light shades of pink.

The door closed behind Jungkook, forming an inaudible metal click. Jungkook rubs his hands together, creating friction and tugs them into the warm coat pockets. He strolls down the cement sidewalk with his boots clicking, forming beats that go with the tune he's humming. The cold breeze fans against his face when he covers his neck with the collar of the coat. Large pitch-black masses of silhouettes plaster on the roads and sidewalks, forming a dark and gloomy scene. The only source of light in the deserted and silent street was the ethereal sodium gleam from the 24/7 convenience store and the dim yellow luminescence from the street lamps, which didn't help in decreasing the dark wolfing down the area. He continues to walk down the street with his hands snuggle warmly in his pockets until meeting his eyes is a small store, with illuminating pink and orange shades that paint the street beautifully. He smiles to himself and jogs over to the store, pushing the glass door using one hand causing the golden bell hang above the door to rattle. Jungkook breathes out as he suddenly meets the warm air, caressing his cheeks and kiss his nose. He rubs his freezing hands together and shuffles to the counter where a lanky male about his age is standing and smiling towards him.

"Hey Baekhyun," He happily greets and helps himself up the comfy counter stool.

"Hey, Jungkook," The male waves a hand and hands him the menu. "Night shift huh?"

"Yeah," Jungkook hums and his eyes scan over the menu. His appetite increases whenever he scans over something delicious, his mouth waters and he just wants to order every single donut available on the menu. Jungkook is the type of person who has a pitless stomach and he will wolf everything down when his stomach isn't pleased.

"I'll have number 13, number 20 and two cups of coffee with sugar." Jungkook adds and looks up at the male named Baekhyun who gives him an angelic smile after punching numbers on the cashier. He had to resist the urge of ordering everything on the menu due to his limited amount of money.

"That will be six dollars in total."

Jungkook after handing him the money and receiving the change, he leans onto the counter and chats with Baekhyun.

Baekhyun works in the best donut-place on the street and Jungkook has always came here with Tae or Namjoon to have a midnight snack. They talked about why Jungkook had head out alone and not having any company, predictions of Namjoon and Seokjin's date which includes Namjoon breaking his glass or dropping one of his chopsticks and Seokjin scolding the chef due to the food that wasn't fully cooked. They also talked about Chanyeol, who is Baekhyun's crush and Jungkook loves to make Baekhyun blush like a tomato whenever he tells him about Chanyeol. He stays at the shop and enjoy his classic glazed donut, which in his opinion, goes great with coffee. The sweet sugary glaze lingers on his tongue and the bitterness but warm coffee runs down his throat create a mixture of bittersweet feeling, just like everything that he perceives.

After receiving the paper bag containing the donut and the cup of coffee Jungkook ordered for Taehyung, Jungkook bids his goodbye to Baekhyun and leaves the store, not wanting Taehyung to be frightened and worry about him all over again. Just as he thought, his phone vibrates in his pocket. He shuffles uncomfortably, carefully gripping the paper bag and coffee cup on one hand and the other searching for his phone.

[TaeTae is calling you]

[Accept phone call]

"Kookie~ You home yet??" A deep and husky voice greets him when he accepts the phone call. Taehyung is always like this, he won't stop caring for him until he's dead but in this situation, maybe Tae cares more about the donut Jungkook bought. His shoes click on the pavement as he return to the Police Agency. A smile on his lips.

"I've just gotten out of Baek's store. You're hungry already?"

"No, Jungkookie," Jungkook hears Taehyung's chuckle. "I was worrying if something had happened to you."

"I'm fine," Jungkook huffs because Tae doubts his abilities. The coffee and the bag feels tepid in his hands. "I was in the patrol team once."

"Okay okay," Taehyung laughs. Jungkook can hear the sound of Namjoon talking, maybe he's home. Does he want to have a donut? The store isn't far so it won't be a bother if he have to walk back and buy him a donut or a muffin. "Oh and Namjoon returned with Seokjin, he won't stop blabbering about it."

Jungkook's eyes light up and jokes. "Tell me about it."

"Not until you bring the snacks home. Namjoon ate, he won't be able to stuff more food in his round belly now."

"Alright," Jungkook feels as if Tae can read his mind. He hung up with Tae after telling him to wait for him and he hurriedly jogs back to the police station.
