17 : I'll Pick You Up

Taehyung was still cooped up in his room, he still prefers to be locked up but didn't feel like studying for tomorrow either, he felt a little hungry.

"Didn't Kookie said something about food..?" The time says that studying kids should still be in school for the next hour, there was no banging or sounds on the penthouse so it was ok to assume he's alone.

He approached the cold toast and milk and took a bite out of it. It wasn't hot and crunchy anymore, it was cold and soggy to his tongue, but nothing unusual, the air conditioner has been going strong ever since he came here.

"I missed school.." he looks at the TV remote "I should watch-" No, he didn't feel like TV anymore.

What about Jimin?

His phone rang as he thought about his name, the caller? Jimin.

"Hello?"

"Taehyung, where in the world are you? And why didn't you come to school? two days straight?"

He bit his lips, when Jimin feels bad, he feels bad too, he didn't want the other to worry but he felt uncomfortable to lie to someone he trust the most.

"I'm at home, I don't feel 100% but I can make it tomorrow-"

"You're in Daegu?" Jimin's question made him know and remember that Jimin is a police and has gone for the investigation.

"No... Jungkook took me in.. it was supposed to be a long term sleepover but now I'm a freeloader.. I guess?"

"You don't sound well- wait- WHAT?! Tae! Why are you there?? Get out of there! You could always live with me or anyone, just not him!"

"I feel kinda bad to crash into his place too.. maybe I should ask him one more time.. thanks for the concern."

"I'll pick you up in 30 minutes"

His lips become dry, he hasn't talked this much in a while, it exhausted him to remember he has to study. Knowing that Jimin will come to get him, he prepares himself but in the middle of undressing himself, he thought about something-

"I can't get out without Jungkook.. and how is Jimin going to come?" And does Jimin know where Jungkook's place is in the first place?

Jungkook stood his way at the door of his sports car, he was rushing home and became the first to arrive at the parking ground so his surroundings were cars with absent owners.

Or so he thought.

He didn't miss the small movements behind the shadow of each car. No one but him and the shadowed person were there so he figured that he was being followed.

He gets in the car and starts the engine, driving in a slow pace to see if the other was following.

He's right. Right now, a red car is following from behind slowly.

He's been followed before, stalked till he's at the corner. But at least those were from the media, this one doesn't seem like it and he hates it more than ever.

Though he hates it and prefers not to. They weren't making a good job at making it a bit more secretive. Stepping on the gas, he passed down the street faster.

Nothing will ever be more important than getting home early to get Tae.

It wasn't like the stalker could follow him to his penthouse anyways unless it's a really big opponent that he doubt would be, this was a high school student or maybe teacher on his tail, he could manage, and if he couldn't, he could break who ever's neck.

Eventually after entering the high classed apartment, he stops in front of the elevator, fingers lightly touching the button before he turns around to see a slight figure of the hair color and nose and height.

"The only short people that stalks me could only be you, Jimin"

The mysterious stalker, Jimin, gave in, sighing, he knew that Jungkook was sharp and his cover was already blown long before. He took a light step from behind the column and smiles.

"Why did you led me to your apartment?"

"And Why did you stalk me?"

"Taehyung told me that he's staying with you, I'm taking him back"

"He what?" Jimin quickly notices his sudden change of breathing pace, it became fast and uneven and his eyes were mad wide and angry, but it only lasted a few seconds before he took compose of himself again.

"He's not staying with me."

"That's a fucking lie, Taehyung told me that he's staying with you and we both know he doesn't do lying"

Jungkook bits his bottom lips, great fuckedy fuck.

"So what do you want?"

"Take Taehyung down so he can leave with me."

"For the nth time, he's not with me, you can check the penthouse and there won't be a single of Taehyung's mark there other than cat hairs."

Jimin walks over him and pressed the elevator switch to go up. "Take me then."

"And Jungkook, remember that I also excel in Taekwando and I have a gun with me."

"Relax, I won't kill ya"
