Hidden Veil

Truce? pt2

(Jimin)

I thought back to the night I found half of who Scar was. I couldn't believe I had tried to kiss her. Twice.

Talk about a fatal attraction. I wish I knew who she was.

I think she might feel the same. She is just afraid. She nearly let me kiss her.

"Have an answer yet?" Scar came and sat back down, breaking my thoughts.

"N-no. RM just went to check what the others think. Everything good?"

"You say that like your my friend. What do you think? About the truce?"

"I don't trust you completely but after you willingly revealed your gender. I don't know. But if what you say is true then I don't even know why we hate each other."

(Crystal)

I gave him a funny look.

"You really are willing to trust someone you don't know?"

"Why do you always try and make me doubt myself?"

"To try and stop you from doing anything stupid."

"Why should you care?"

"Because two of them involved me."

"Just don't."

I saw it had hit a sore spot. He was guilty about it. I guess that wasn't a good way of making friends in case of a truce.

"Sorry. I shouldn't have said that."

"Why are being nice to me?"

"Isn't it obvious?"

"You like me?" He flashed me his adorable smile. My face changed from a smirk to a look of shock.

"I-I-I..."

"Don't worry. I'm just messing with you."

I so wanted to punch him.

"I know for a fact that you like me. It might not be so obvious to your friends but it is to me."

Now it was his turn to look shocked. I laughed.

"So the demon does have a sense of humour."

OK. He was only too cute. Time to change the subject.

"So Jimin. What does RM think about the truce?"

"I think that we should be able to know who you are before we can trust you. Now if you've finished flirting I would like to get down to business." RM showed up with everyone else and they sat around the table.

As much as you want punch him don't do anything. Just breath and play it cool.

"So you've finally come to your senses. What do you suggest?"

"What do you mean 'what do I suggest'?"

"Well since this is going to be a truce it has to work both ways. What? You honestly thought I set up the rules you follow them and everyoneis happy? I thought you were smarter than this RM. So I know you want to know who I am but that can wait. Anything else?"

"What's in it for us?"

"An alliance. More very skilled teamates. Less people to keep under your radar and a team that always have your back. We have helped you before. Even if you didn't ask for it but we did."

"And what's in it for you?"

"It won't make any sense unless you know who I am. And I can't say here. Too many people. Now if you will excuse me I need to check on my team."

I got up and left. But being the idiot he is Jimin got up and tried to block me before I got outside the building.

"Where are you going?"

"Sorry I don't have time to chat. Maybe another time." I gave Jimin another wink, running my hand across his chest as I walked around him and outside. He stood dumbfounded for a while before running after me.

He caught my arm.

"What are you doing out here? If this is a trap I swear..."

"Finally come to your senses but for the wrong reasons. It is not a trap. I just need some fresh air."

"Really? How do I know your telling the truth?"

"If your really that doubtful then stay out and babysit me but stay away."

"Scared?"

"Why would I be scared?"

"In case I try something like I have the past two times."

"I know you will. So I'm not scared. I'm just worried about something else."

"Like what?" Jimin asked as he drew nearer.

I walked off, away from sight. I knew he was going to try something and I did not want anyone else to see.

"Like what?" He asked again.

"None of your business. Jimin."

He caught my wrist but I didn't fight. By coming to the party I had made a temporary truce.

His hand moved from my wrist to my waist.

I placed my hands on his strong chest, ready to push him away if I needed to.

His hands met my bare waist and I bit my lip. He smirked.

He now held me, our faces only centimetres away. He leaned forwards.

I leaned back. He stopped. I relaxed and came forward again.

His lips met mine. Gentle and soft. He didn't push me or the kiss any further.

I did. I pressed forward, deepening the kiss. He smiled.

I grabbed his shirt, pulling him into me.

His hands tightened around my waist.

I ran my hands over his shoulders and around his neck, running my fingers through his hair.

We held the kiss. My body leaning against his.

I leaned back slightly. "Jimin." I groaned.

He groaned and pulled me back into his lips.

I broke away first. Panting. His hands slipped into mine.

"Your scar.  How did you get it?" He said examining a scar going across my now exposed neck.

"Dagger. First fight. Gang. Earnt me my name." I said between breaths.

He smiled. "This is what you were afraid of. If I kissed you. You were worried you were going to kiss me back. And enjoy it. I'm right, aren't I?"

I nodded.

"I won't tell anyone about this, OK?"

"Thanks. I really appreciate it. I won't tell anyone myself."

"And if RM does agree to the truce then it will be even better."

"No it won't. Because then you might never leave me alone."

We laughed.

We walked back inside. Together.

RM was waiting for us.

"Sorry about that. You know, your lucky to have friends like Jimin. He followed me to make sure I wasn't going to betray you. I didn't."

"Good." He sighed. "I'm sorry for judging you like that earlier. I will think about your offer. In other words, maybe."

"Oh and did I forget to mention? You can break the truce at any time but you have to let us know first."

"Thank you."

"No problem. Now how about we forget about our hate and have some fun. This is a party after all."
