"Found any clues?" Taehyung asked Jennie. Her head kept on moving around and stopped only to nod back at him and Taehyung saw it in the corner of his eyes.

"Hmmm," she went silent for quite a few seconds. "Not yet." The ride with Jennie was quite distracting. Aside from the fact that she's Jennie, Taehyung has got himself conscious of her every movement. Her scent was everywhere. It brought him to a flash memory of the smell of flowers of his father's garden. Taehyung also noticed Jennie being quiet so he wanted to check on her. He is willing to offer his services but unsure if it's appropriate for Jennie. What's wrong with asking if she's onay though? That's a totally normal thing to do. Maybe he should stop over-evaluating things. Here goes nothing.

"Crap. There's the flag!" he shouted. He was supposed to check on her but his panicked glancing made the flag in the bush much more visible for him.

"Awesome eyesight!" Jennie climbed down the bicycle, all jumpy and excited, grabbing the white flag dug upon the soil. She took the chance to get the attention of the cameraman and posed.

"You did great, Taehyung! I'm gonna treat you the next time we eat." Taehyung was pleased by the suggestion and it showed by the way he grinned towards the girl. A meal is nice, and having it with Jennie Kim's a pleasure.

"Where should we be heading next then?" Taehyung looked out for the girl and waited for her to fully climb back up before he began pedalling.

"We're going nowhere else but the finish line, Taehyung." she snorted. "I mean where else can we go?"

"That's a point."

The time they made their way back took longer than how they spent it on finding the flag. Since the duo were reckless and eager to win, they may have lost their tracks.

Along with the relieving sceneries they have passed through, they've exchanged a few stories, some about their jobs and some regarding their friends, and to be honest, Jennie really finds Taehyung interesting. The way the man can take one word from what she was saying and say so much, much more that what Jennie has to say, he is no doubt a great person to talk to. He's talkative but not too intruding, interactive but never crossing the line. It's easy to be complacent around him because he makes everything just natural, nearly to the point that Jennie almost forgot that they had cameras prying around them.

One thing annoys her though, he's too playful. It's the characteristic that ticks Jennie the most. Taehyung's a great person to talk to but once he finds a weak spot, he will find a way to tease Jennie and Jennie doesn't show her unimpressed remarks because there are cameras around them.

They finally arrived at the base and saw three other people sitting at the winner's bench.

One was Jin, and the other team who obtained the other flag was...
