The Lost Prince -kth.jjk (Royal AU) ON HOLD

Chapter 7

Eventually Taekyun returned to the cabin his eyes met with Namjoon's who gave me a sly smile, he sat back down with Yeontan following him, he started to read his book again occasionally stealing glances at Namjoon who continued to go through his papers

"Jungkook's not back yet" he spoke up

"I can see that" Taekyun quietly murmured, he looked back down and back up again

"What are those?" he pointed to the papers the elder was holding

"These?" Namjoon raised an eyebrow looking at the papers and then at Taekyun who nodded in response

"It's information on the royal family, facts, statistics, etc" Taekyuns eyes went wide

"R-Really?" Namjoon smirked at his response

"Want to see?" he asked the boy, who bit his lip unsure, Namjoon shuffled through the papers humming as he decided on one

"Here, have a look at this one" He handed a few pages to Taekyun who looked at them

"Kim Jimin?" He tilted his head looking at Namjoon

"Yup, the third son of the Kims, One of your older brothers if you're really Taehyung"

"Ah... Older?" His eyebrows laced themselves into a knot of wonder

"Yeah, Kim Taehyung is the youngest son, he has three older brothers" Taekyuns mouth fell into an o shape, he pulled his eyes away from Namjoon and began reading through the papers, it had his basic information, name, birthday, blood type etc. and next to it a photo of the young prince

"I think he's about seventeen in that photo" Namjoon began "He'd be about twenty now but it's hard to get photos of them these days so our records aren't exactly... current" he trailed off and Taekyun nodded his head in understanding, he looked at the photo longer, taking in the young man's details and began to chuckle catching Namjoons attention who raised an eyebrow at him

"He has squishy cheeks, it's cute" he gently smiled as he looked at the photo, silence fell over the two once again before a quiet voice broke it

"Um.. Namjoon" Taekyung softly spoke towards the elder

"Do... do you have um.... do you have his records there? y'know, um, Taehyung's" his eyes darted back and forth as he played with his fingers, he was unsure if he should of asked him

"Yeah I do, you sure you want to see them kid" he looked at the boy feeling a little worried, he was biting his lip rather aggressively

"If I'm being honest... I really don't think I do... but I guess, I should probably at least learn about who he is... or was..." he forced a small smile up at Namjoon who sighed and flipped through his papers finding what he was looking for and handing them to Taekyun who nervously accepted them, as he looked down the first thing he noticed is that the photo was that of the portrait they found in the palace, he hadn't thought about the fact there wouldn't be a picture of the boy looking older since he hasn't been seen since he was a child, his eyes darted through the information, never really being able to focus on any of it, he decided he'd read enough and let out a sigh handing all the papers back to Namjoon

"So?" he quirked as he took the papers

"So....?" Taekyung repeated furrowing his eyebrows

"Anything there ring a bell, anything familiar" he pushed on, Taekyun let out a deep annoyed sigh

"I swear you two continuously forget the fact I have no memory of who I was, reading a few lines of ink isn't going to suddenly change that" his remark was cold and sharp taking Namjoon back

"Gee kid, I'm sorry..." he wanted to say more but he was still quite shocked

"No... I'm sorry, I didn't mean to-" he began to apologize as Namjoon cut him off

"Taekyun, I know it's frustrating, but I- We, are only here to help okay, try not to be so cut off about these things and don't stress to much" he gave a warm small towards the younger and Taekyun noticed how his dimples formed when he smiled with sincerity, he gave a small smile back

"yeah... I'm tired, I think I'll sleep" he stood up hoisting himself up onto the bed as Namjoon looked at him confused but only wished him a good sleep realising it would do him no good to keep pushing the subject

A short time past as he heard the deep slow breathing coming from the bed above him and he gathered the boy was deeply asleep, he must of be tired from all the travelling, it was nearing night as Jungkook finally came back into the cart, walking in his eyes went wide as he only saw Namjoon sitting there looking at him

"Where is h-" he asked aloud but was quickly stopped as Namjoon hushed him and pointed to the bed, Jungkook peered over and sure enough there lie the boy fast asleep, his clicked his tongue against his face

"He'll miss the dinner..." he whispered, the elder only chuckled at Jungkook

"The dining cart doesn't close, if he's hungry later you can always take him then" He stood up patting his friends back and left the cart headed to their dinner plans, taking one last glance at Taekyun, Jungkook sighed and left the cart gently closing the door
