          "Talk to me about this later.." Jimin claimed as Jungkook stepped in to take pictures on the inside of the store. Avoiding Jimin as the smile seemed to fade from his face. He heard those mean things and the last thing he wanted was to be treated differently. But he didn't realize that Jimin was only allowing him to take pictures. Not even letting him perform investigations like he would normally do.

          "Don't make me bring this up to Jungkook, Chief. I know you have a heart... He can't tell you if he has an issue, so you need to talk to him." Namjoon lowered his voice and stepped further into the store, far from the boy who was taking pictures of the scene. "Didn't you bond with him?"

          "No. Nothing clicked between us. He's just a happy little guy. He must really worship me." Jimin added and looked back at Jungkook who looked over the pictures he took. "I don't want him to work with me... He gives me the creeps. Too kind, too happy, too weird." Jimin added and gave Namjoon a glare. "I'm calling my father. I'm tired of having to force myself to like someone and become pitiful towards him because he can't speak..." Jimin concluded. Namjoon couldn't believe how serious Jimin could get when he's at work. It's like he didn't even care about Jungkook at all!

             "Stop putting on the act, you need Jungkook and he needs you. Go back to the station. I'll send you anything we find. I'll take it from here." Claimed the older and stuffed his hands into the pockets of his coat as he walked off to order his team around and investigate.

         Namjoon ordered the younger to head back to the station. Knowing that he himself was just a dispatcher, he ordered Jimin, the Chief back to the station. Not even growing scared of losing his job because Jimin would never do such a thing to his dispatch. Jimin tilted his head and watched how Namjoon took action onto the scene. This made Jimin roll his eyes and walk out of the store to leave. Mumbling many things towards what just happened.

             "I'm the Chief... Not some Dispatcher... He's not even supposed to be taking action! Since when did he decided to jump in on this case?" Jimin asked himself as he approached his car, not even bothering to tell the boy he was leaving now. Just as Jimin got into the car and was ready to drive off, Jungkook suddenly ran in front of the car and slammed his hand down onto the hood to get Jimin's attention. "...fuck.." Jimin hissed under hid breath as he stopped and unlocked the door so Jungkook could get in.

              Jungkook opened the door to the back seat as he carried his camera in his hands and got in to sit and close the door.  He was out of breath from running after and chasing Jimin. Just knowing how his Chief left him behind so easily, made him feel unwanted. In his mind, he expected a police officer to bully him and make fun of him for being mute... But, he never expected Jimin wanting to push him off like this. The boy let out gentle huffs he could manage to make as he laid back on the seats to catch his breath.

             "Why did you tag along? I'm going back to the station. If you want to do detective work, go ahead. Namjoon will take you back to the station after. I have a lot of paperwork to do. If you follow me, you won't have anything to do." Jimin stated. In reality, he was going to work alone with the case and receive information from Namjoon. He just didn't want Jungkook to follow.

               Jungkook shook his head out of breath and chose to follow Jimin. This made the Chief uncomfortable on how the boy would follow him everywhere like a satellite. The boy sat up and still didn't bother to look up at Jimin as he looked over the pictures while Jimin sighed and started to drive. "Ugh, since when does a dispatcher thinks he can boss the chief around? I'm the boss here... I should know when something is taking place. I have the power to look into something too!" Jimin added and just gripped onto the steering wheel in frustration as Jungkook flinched at how frustrated the Chief was getting and kept his gaze away from the older. Trying to distract himself by looking at the pictures.
