Life As The Pet Of An Alien

Chapter 9

Jungkook and Jimin got their fair share of stares on their way through the office. Some people even dropping what they were carrying upon seeing them. Of course Jimin stopped to help pick it up every time it happen. These beings were so much more clumsier than he thought. Jungkook decided to take Jimin up through the stairs rather than the elevator he didn't want to take the chance of freaking the boy out in a closed area.

Thankfully Jungkook's kind didn't get tired easily and with Jimin's life style of constant movement a few twenty flights of stairs were nothing. It was just a really, really, really, slow way to travel. When Jungkook and Jimin finally reached their floor Jungkook wanted to kiss the ground at finally making it. Jungkook started to lead Jimin to his and his friends shared office when a strange and loud yipping sound was heard down the hallway. Jimin and Jungkook looked to see Taehyung wave at them.

Jungkook almost jumped off the ground when Jimin gave and equally loud yip in return before running up to the man and hugging him tightly in greeting. Taehyung going to far as to lift and spin a laughing Jimin a couple times. Jungkook felt a slight ping of jealousy at that. He was starting to not like Jimin's over affectionate ways with everyone. Sure it was great when it was directed towards Jungkook, but with everyone else it kinda got on his nerves.

Jungkook spend walked up to the two and passed them walking towards the door of the office. When he didn't hear Jimin following him he turned back.

"Jimin come." He said sending him a smile and opening his hand for the human to take. Jimin smiled back and took the hand with no hesitation. Almost skipping into the office. Taehyung followed as well surprised at the near perfect accent of Jungkook's words. He almost sounded like a native speaker.

Once they got in Jimin noticed Hoseok who was laying on a near by sofa curled up in pain. He ran over to the man and hugged him rubbing his back soothingly with a look of worry on his face.

"What's wrong brother?" Jimin asked only getting a groan in return as Hoseok buried his face further into the sofa. Taehyung came up behind Jimin with a sympathetic look on his face.

"He got sick on the way here from the weird vehicle thingy." Taehyung explained and Jimin nodded his head in understanding. He kinda expected this. He and Taehyung decided to try and take Hoseok's mind off of it by giving him a massage. Unaware of the eyes of their owners which glanced at them every few seconds trying not to seem obvious. They'd probably go over there if they weren't so busy with work themselves. They tried to focus on the computer screens in front of themselves to avoid the jealousy curling in their guts. Well... Yoongi and Jungkook may have been jealous but Jin and Namjoon were mostly just trying to resist taking pictures of the cute moment. They're little boy was growing up so fast. Granted he was already a grown man when they got him.

Soon from the care of his brothers Hoseok was back on his feet. Literally, he as well as Taehyung and Jimin had taken to chasing each other around the office in a more tame game of tag them they played yesterday. They were sure to play in the large part of the office that was used for breaks rather than were their owners were working. They might not have known exactly what they were doing but it looked important from a distance. 

Jimin was currently it and though he may be the shortest out the trio he was most certainly the fastest. He had both Hoseok and Taehyung tackled to the ground in minutes. They were rolling around laughing all over each other before they laid back in circle to catch their breath. Soon they were just laying down enjoy each others company. Talking about everything and nothing. Mostly about what they liked to do when they were still back with their tribes.

"I used to love to dance and making music." Jimin said quietly making the other to turn their heads to look at him seeing as he was laying in the middle. 

"It was my favorite pass time to do with my siblings. We always made the best music together at night." Jimin said his eyes clouding over as he thought back to that time. Hoseok smiled at him.

"I use to love dancing too.  Though I don't think I was the best at making the music. I'm not to good with instruments." Hoseok said making them all giggle.

"Drawing use to be my favorite thing to do." Taehyung said suddenly making the other two turn to him in surprise. Drawing was a typical hobby. Seeing as paper was really hard to find and things to draw with even more so.

"My tribe's travel route passed by and old department store ruin every year. And every year my siblings would surprise me with the biggest boxes of paper, pencils and colors they could find. I expected the gift every time we passed through but it always warmed my heart to receive it and know that they payed attention to me enough to know I loved it." Taehyung finish a small tear falling out his eye. He wiped it away quickly. He promised himself to not get sucked into depression and to enjoy live and all it's quick changes.

Jimin and Hoseok looked at Taehyung in worry before they moved to hug him in their arms. Comforting Taehyung with the warmest embraces they could give. They laid like that for a second until Jimin got an idea. He stood up quickly catching both Taehyung and Hoseok off guard.

"Jimin?" Tae called watching him walk of to the other side of the large office where their owners were working. Hoseok and Taehyung moved to watch from behind the sofa. Their curiosity peaked.

Jimin walked up behind an oblivious Jungkook. He stared at his computer screen for a second entranced by the words he'd never be able to understand. He must have stood their staring at Jungkook's work for five whole minutes before Namjoon notice and grunted at Jungkook pointing behind him. Jungkook turned confused only to jump slightly in surprise when he saw Jimin. Jungkook gripped his heart for a second with his eyes close trying to calm his pulse. Jimin smiled amused at the reaction. 

When Jungkook felt composed again he turned around to face Jimin raising an eyebrow a silent way of asking what he needed. Jimin pointed to a blank sheet of paper on his desk next to the printer.

"I want." Jimin said using simple words that he knew Jungkook had learned already. Jungkook's friends, who had all looked up from their work to watch the exchange, scrunch their eyebrow's in confusion unable to determine what the human wanted. Jungkook on the other hand was proud to say he knew exactly what Jimin said. He grabbed a couple of pieces of paper and handed it to him with a smile. Jimin smiled back before point at Jungkook's cup of pencils.

"That too." Jimin said even though Jungkook didn't necessarily know what those words meant he could guess. So he stored the knowledge away for later handing Jimin the whole cup of pencils. Jimin's smile widen and his eyes disappeared into little crescents.

"Thank you!" He said cutely.

"Your welcome." Jungkook said back before watching the human wonder off back to his friends waving the paper in the air for an excited Taehyung and Hoseok to see.

Jungkook gave one more amused smile before turning back around in his chair to get back to work. Only to be faced with the stoked faces of his friends.

"What?"

"You speak human?" Yoongi asked like it was they most obvious thing in the world why they were confused.

"Just a little." Jungkook said with a cocky smirk. Yoongi couldn't help and eye roll.

God damned golden maknae.
