After a couple of minutes, the silver head pranced to their table with their warm drinks. Jimin skimmed the boy over before smirking hastily. He dabbed jeongguk's legs underneath the rectangular wooden table, the younger glared at him with warning eyes but instantly shuddered when jimin opened his mouth to speak.

"Hello again, taehyung.", the wicked brown hair voiced, amusement evident through his voice. Taehyung was placing the third drink which is jin's Americano on the table. "Uh...Hi", he greeted back, voice low, husky and seductive. It had jeongguk gulping in anxiety and also fascination.

"Jeongguk right here didn't get an answer for his question last night, did he?" if looks could kill , jimin would have lucidly resembled a hairless, over boiled chicken right now cos' that's what jeongguk fancied doing right at this moment, tossing his best friend into boiling water.

Taehyung glanced at jeongguk who was busy avoiding his gaze, feeling embarrassed and ashamed. He muttered something that sounded like "immature" underneath his breath and sauntered back with all his prestige. Unlike jeongguk who wanted to disappear into thin air. He begged the southern gods to take his soul and let him be reborn again. Is he exaggerating a bit? Yes, yes he is.

Jin raised an eyebrow, "What was that about?"

Jimin smiled and flipped a page from his notebook, "S' nothing, hyung". He glanced up to jeongguk who visaged furious and looked like he could rip off someone's neck any minute. "I hate you!", he told jimin, his pretty doe eyes shooting daggers at him. "You love me."

"Oh please, love and you in the same sentence doesn't quite make sense." Jeongguk purred back.

"Yeah right, Kooks the whole fucking world knows you love me. No need to deny facts."

"Shut up!"

"You, shut up!"

"No, You-"

"Younglings, younglings. Can we please revert back to working on my assignment. We don't have all night." Jin cut them off, as usual. He's accustomed to the two younger boys brick batting once in a while but he's certain that this doesn't mean they care any less about eachother, they just seem to enjoy tormenting one another frequently. But it's mostly jimin who does the tormenting.

They exchanged 'Fuck you's' one last time and proceeded on helping jin with the rest of his assignment.

'''''''''''''''

At exactly nine pm, the boys decided to head home. Jin grinned gladsomely having finished his assignment and all, he was more than ecstatic to leave.

Jeongguk noticed taehyung wasn't behind the counter when he walked out of the vacant cafe. Only a few other employees were gathered in a small circle near the corner. Chitchatting.

"Do you guys want to sleep over at my place?", jin asked, as soon as they stepped outside.

"I can't, my mom comes back from her field trip tonight." Jeongguk declined, a small smile taking up his lips. It's been a week since he saw his mom and it was safe to say he truly missed her.

"Ow, I really missed sujin." Jimin said, he and Jeongguk's mom were on first name bases. She sometimes refers to him as her eldest son, that's pretty much expected since he practically lives there.

"More like you missed the food you get stuffed with." Jin uttered. Jeongguk chuckled in agreement.

Jimin rolled his eyes, "Same thing."

Jeongguk abruptly stopped walking, his hands rummaging through his jean pockets.

He sighed, "Fuck, you guys I think I left my wallet back at bong's"

Jimin snickered, "What stole your attention, someone's balls?"

"Jimin lay off and kookie go get it, we will wait for you here" Jin told him calmly.

"Okay, be right back", jeongguk turned on his heels, jogging back the few meters they walked. He reached bong's coffee shop after a few minutes, he tried opening the door, heavy breaths escaping his lips only to find it locked. He looked up to see the 'closed' sign placed instead of the usual 'open' one.

"Fuck." Today is just not my day.

He stood there waiting for his brain to come up with an idea when he suddenly thought of the back door. He sighed in relief making his way through a small lane which led to the forepart of the coffee shop. What he was expecting was to see the familiar blue metal exit but what he actually saw was taehyung leaning on it, a cigarette placed in between his lips. Oh, fudge.

He remained still watching the silver head (actually sort-of whittish head) exhale cloud of gray gases into the air. The moonlight and the barely lucent bulb hanging from the roof top being the only source of light. The boy looked appealing and bad boyish, his plain black tshirt and ripped jeans complementing that thought.

Jeongguk snapped out of his haze and walked up to him, only now did the latter acknowledge his presence. He furrowed his eyebrows, most presumably wondering what the fuck he was doing here.

"Uh...I forgot my wallet back here", jeongguk answered his un-voiced question. Taehyung didn't say anything nor did he move to let him pass through the door.

"Do you smoke?" he asked, catching jeongguk off guard. He inhaled what was left of the cigarette before briefly tossing it to the ground.

"N-no, I don't" Jeongguk stuttered.

"Thought so, you don't actually seem like the type either."

Jeongguk raised an eyebrow. "Excuse me, what the fuck is that even supposed to mean?" He didn't know why being told he looked like a non-smoker bothered him so much, when it's clearly a good thing.

"What it means."

"Well, you definitely look like a smoker.", jeongguk told him.

The boy whose eyes were focusing on something else immediately looked at jeongguk the moment he said this.

"Didn't you momma ever tell you not to insult strangers? I might as well stab you right here right now." He said, his voice low and threatening.

Jeongguk gulped,stepping back a bit. He panicked. His momma did tell him that. Taehyung's dark eyes stared into his alarmed one's, only did he speak when taehyung moved closer.

"Uh...I'm-I'm S-sorry, I-i was just K-kidding. I S-swear."His voice came out frightened and daunted.

"I don't like kidding around", taehyung snarled, moving even closer.

To say jeongguk was scared shit less was understatement, "S-sorry, I-it wo-won't happen A-again."

"Are you sure?"

"Y-yes S-sir."

And from that taehyung bursted out laughing, his laugh echoing through the night and making jeongguk jump a little. What the fuck?

'''''''''''''''

Awe, kookie is a scary cat.
