Jungkook and Taehyung met at a local coffee shop on the side streets of New York City. Despite the heavy snow on the ground, the day is warmer comparatively. The two friends felt better sitting outside than inside the comfort of the coffee shop booths.

"Kookie, you know how we were in college!" Taehyung laughs, recounting a silly incident between the two back then. Jungkook joins in the memory of the two of them being late once again for class and trying and failing to come up with reasonable excuses.

They were pretty close back then and it's great to have a friendly and familiar face in a city of strangers. But sometimes, even your own can become strangers, as Taehyung has had to recently learn. A hard lesson about life and the people that you thought you could always trust.

The fact that his Seokjin had so blatantly showed him the cold shoulder, had upset Taehyung to no end. He had spent most his life with his best friend yet he had been insulted and ridiculed by him so harshly. It hurt Taehyung's heart to know that his friend had forgotten him.

But he resolved to carry on with his work and be on a professional level with Seokjin. As Jungkook and Taehyung continued to laugh and drink their coffee, unbeknownst to them, someone sat across the street in a dark car with tinted windows, watching them.

The person lowered his sunglasses and jealously looked on at the happy smiles.

Who is this specimen of a person sitting and laughing with his VV? How dare he? He had no patience for this type of outrageous flirtatious behaviour.

Just as he was about to exit the car and go across to give them a piece of his mind, he caught himself. He couldn't just barge in on their date?? Ugh! He had never loathed himself as much in this moment than any other time in his life. His VV was right in front of him and all he could do was sit back and watch impotently.

He took one last jealous look at them smiling at one another, and indicated for his driver to go. One way or another, he would get his VV back. He would find a way even if it cost him his whole life and his entire career, every last cent that he owned. He didn't care.

Later that same day on the set

"Tae-ah, Seokjin wants to see you in his vanity van," his assistant jogged up to him.

Taehyung frowned. Why would he want to see him? He hadn't had the costumes ready as yet. They were just doing rehearsals for now. Nevertheless, he made his way to the van and knocked once.

"Enter!" Seokjin barked.

Taehyung flinched but opened the door anyway, watching Seokjin try on some pants. He was shirtless. Taehyung gulped. Seokjin's milky skin and wide shoulders were stirring feelings in his nether regions. He adjusted his pants and looked away.

"You called for me Mr Kim?"

Seokjin turned around and glared at Taehyung. He appraised him from top to bottom. Taehyung shifted from one foot to another, feeling hotter by the minute. Seokjin's piercing gaze was causing him to sweat profusely. Strange and unknown feelings were beginning to stir in his heart.

"Where are the designs for the dresses? I didn't think you would be this incompetent! I expected to at least see some kind of feedback by now. Maybe I need to speak to the producer again so we can revisit your interest in this project."

Taehyung was at a loss for words. Never had his Jinnie ever spoken to him so harshly. He was beginning to think that he had dreamed those years of their childhood together.

"Are you hard of hearing? Or a mute? Or maybe both?" Seokjin was venomous.

He pulled the shirt off that he was trying on and he heard Taehyung gulp behind him. A satisfied smirk played on his lips.

"I'm sorry Mr Kim, but the designs were ready two days ago. I even sent them with your assistant but you declined to view them, saying that you didn't have time for 'such trivial matters'." Taehyung deadpanned. Two can play at this game, he thought, staring at Seokjin with the same intensity that he was affording him with.

Seokjin removed his pants and was now standing in his Supreme briefs, watching Taehyung's reaction. He was inwardly satisfied when he caught Taehyung gasp and his breath hitching lightly. He knew he was having an effect on Taehyung and he was enjoying every minute of it.

He turned around once again, boring into Taehyung's panicked eyes. He walked closer to him, with Taehyung backing up against the vanity's door.

"I don't deal with incompetence Mr whatever your name is! I want the designs on my desk at my home at 6 tonight. And it had better be you that brings them and not some bitch ass assistant!"

Taehyung gulped again but immediately caught himself realising what Seokjin's intentions were. He looked on him seductively, appraising his body with his eyes. His long beautiful legs with those milky thighs, his tiny waist that he wanted to press his hands against, his firm, wide chest with perky nipples. He bravely ran his finger up his waist to his chest, under Seokjin's chin. He smirked when he heard him inhale sharply.

He lifted his chin up and gazed into those soft doe eyes, closing the gap between them. He saw the panic in those eyes, and smirked again. He brought his lips to Seokjin's pillowy soft ones, almost touching them.

"Just as I remember them," he said, in his gravelly deep voice. "I just wish I had tasted them back then, maybe they wouldn't have tasted like poison as I'm sure they do now."

Seokjin was brought back to his senses. He moved back, away from Taehyung and glared at him again, as he threw a robe over himself.

"See that you're not late! I hate people that don't respect punctuality!"

And with that, Taehyung bowed slightly, hiding a smile that played on his lips, exiting the vanity van.

Oh! He was going to enjoy himself with his Seokjin. He was treading on dangerous waters and Taehyung had no plans to drown.
