Taehyung is late.

Well, he is usually late but never to this extent.  He had gotten distracted by a small husky puppy at the cafe today and accidentally bumped into another customer there, the result of his new dress shirt and tie going into the laundry with coffee stains on them.

He's not too worried about the shirt though. It's the new Sailor Moon tie that he is bemoaning about as he sprints into his office building, rushing towards the elevator doors before they can close. 

Inside the small space, it's only him and a beautiful secretary that works on the sixth floor. He smiles his wide boxy rectangle like grin causing the girl to blush. He doesn't even spare the tiniest moment to wonder why, since he is looking down at himself. On the inside he is dying because of his plain black tie, it was quite boring, and that's what he deserves for throwing on whatever was available when he was in a rush this morning.

Taehyung inhales and then exhales a deep breath, gritting his teeth when he hears his ring tone echoing off the elevator's enclosed walls.

Please don't be him, please don't be him, please don't be hi-

He answers the phone pressing the tiny device to his ear, mumbling a nonchalant "Hello?" and gets an outrageous answer.

"Taehyung, where the hell are you?"

He sighs, adjusting his bag on his shoulder before replying.

"I'm on the elevator."

There was a pause and a loud click! audible on the other line.

"Taehyung did you get distracted again?!? I swear to the heaven's above if you did Taefuck imma destroy you."

Taehyung smirked at this.

"Says the man who is short enough to be a dwarf."

He can almost hear Jimin screaming in his ear. Almost.

"You talk a lot of shit for someone who wears the most childish outfits."

Taehyung scoffs in annoyance.

"Unlike you, they have character!"

Nobody really cares for Taehyung's eccentric wardrobe because of how different it was. It's not as if he was going to be surrounded by very important people often, other than his boss which happened to be the CEO of this company. As long as he liked it no one else's opinions mattered.

Taehyung is feeling rather energetic and bold today. It was probably the cup of diabetes he drank earlier that morning.

"Say that again asshole, but to my face this time."

And there it is, folks. Aggravating Jimin caused Taehyung to let out a loud chuckle. He looks over to where the secretary was, hoping he didn't startle the poor girl again but then realizes he passed the sixth floor already. He never noticed her leave.

"I'll deal with your bullshit later....Tae, there's an emergency."

"Hm? What's going on?"

"The boss isn't too happy right now."

Taehyung's mood switches from amused to tense so fast he almost drops the phone out of his clutches. Well shit.

"Also, you only have ten seconds until your ass is grass."

Taehyung immediately ends the call praying to god that he would make it on time. "Elevator you slowpoke, hurry up!!!" he whined.

He looked up at the flashing numbers on the screen willing them to change to the top floor, because if he didn't arrive there quick enough heads were sure to roll, including his along with them.
