‧₊˚✧Detective Partners‧₊˚✧

Namjoon's P.O.V
"I don't think it's appropriate to be drinking on the job, detective Kim" Krystal states

"Well , im off the clock and we're at a bar, what did you expect" i raise an eyebrow at her already annoyed at her even though it's been day 5 working with her. I can't believe Mr.Min paired me up with her after telling him I wanted to work on my own

"I expected better from you, detective Kim. What's the next step? We still haven't found any new information and you're just sitting here like you have everything under control when you clearly don't. You're ruining my reputation"

"What reputation?" I scoffed "Just because you took detective L/n place doesn't mean you're automatically better than her. You need to be humbled whenever you have her name in your mouth, you hear me?"

"No, i don't"

"What was that?" I turn my head to her

"Are you deaf? I said i don't. I'm not the stupid fuck who let their built up anger get to them causing them to do impulsive shit & lose their job"

"What the fuck is your problem!" I shout at her

"It's the truth! She's just a complete fuck over that's why she fucks up everything good in her life! SHE DESERVE ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!" Krystal bursts into tears

"Seriously, what the fuck is your problem?!"

Krystal looks down at her untouched shot in front of her then looks back at me with tears rolling down her cheeks one by one.

"Y/n was always the top student in her class. She was loved by her classmates, staff, teachers, & principal. It was either everyone wanted to be her or wanted to be with her. I was one of the many who wanted to be her & now for the first time, I get to take her place. Korea is depending on me to solve this case" a bright smile grows on her face

"You're fucking delusional"

"Maybe I am. so what? She's nothing but a fuck up"

"Get some fucking help" I say before getting up from my seat & leaving the bar. Seriously? What's up with women envying other women & praying on their down fall. People like Krystal are sick & twisted

Your P.O.V
Nothing much has changed. It's been a daily thing hanging out with Mingyu. He's the absolute sweetest & is so easy to talk to. Nothing compared to that asshole Namjoon.

"It's bad to exercise while you're on your period"

"What do you know" i say rolling my eyes

"I have a younger sister who live with me" Mingyu says handing me some snacks

My eyes glow "How old is she? I love children" I sequel & Mingyu chuckles

"She's turning 15 this month. She's in grade 10th"

"Awe! What do your parents do?" I ask as i open my zebra cake. For a second, he stops what he's doing then continues

"They're dead" his response makes me drop my zebra cake on the floor. Mingyu hands me a new one & throws away the one that was on the floor

"I'm sorry, I didn't know" I look down at my zebra cake. I can't say I know exactly how his parents death makes him feels whenever it's brought up, but I do know what it's like to lose their parents even if it's one. I pull him towards me & hug him tightly

"I'm sure they were great, would you like to tell me about them?"

"They were doctors. They died the night before my graduation & I didn't get the phone call until after they called my name to go up on the stage ever since then I took in my sister so now I'm her parent"

"Im sorry for you loss, Mingie..." I run my fingers through his soft black hair

"What about you, are your parents still alive?"

"No, they're not... my father died from a sickness & my mother died from a stabbing. I'm an only child so I was in my own"

"What about Suran?" I immediately let him go of my grip

"How do you know?"

"Everyone knew after all, she was Namjoon's cousin"

For some reason, that didn't sit right with me. It felt as though he came up with some bullshit lie because he clearly knew something I didn't.

"Were on you on the case" i raise an eyebrow out of suspicion

"I'm friends with the detective"he states

"I see," why am I integrating him? He has no reason to lie to me. Maybe I did need a break after all, maybe I am slowly losing my mind. "I'm sorry"

"What for?" He says laying his head on my lap

"I keep questioning you as if your suspicious of knowing something..." I say as I ran my fingers through his hair

He looks at me & says, "do you want to come over whenever your free? We can watch a movie at my place & then explore the city afterwards"

"Is this your way of asking me out on a date?" I tease

"If you want it to be then sure"

"I'm down" I say smiling then turning the other way due to being shy.

The Next Day

Namjoon's P.O.V
Krystal acts as if nothing happened that night she made those awful comments about Y/n. Either she was embarrassed of how unprofessional she was being or she was all bark, no bite. It was hard tracking the culprit down with no fingerprints being left behind. They must really not want to get caught if they're being very careful.

I rub my temples with both of my index fingers. I was starting to lose hope without Y/n on my side to help me. I was clearly the asshole for making her feel like she was going insane, she wasn't. I know she wasn't. She was just stressed & finding excuses to find anyone to put the blame on just to give Suran justice. I understood where she was coming from because Suran was my cousin. She was the closest thing I found to family.

I look back up to the sight of Krystal holding to mugs of coffee. She holds one of them up close to me

"Take it" she says. I squint & take the mug of coffee from her hand. She sits next to me "I'm sorry about yesterday. It still doesn't make it right, but I am sorry"

"I'm not the one you should be apologizing to anyway so I don't care" I say facing the other way & we sit in silence for what felt like an hour until Krystal speaks up "Let's drop it"

"Drop what?" I ask facing her to look at her in confusion

"The case. We're getting no leads & we're wasting a lot of materials. It's for the best, detective Kim"

I looked back down at my mug of coffee & didn't say anything. She was right but i didn't want to stop now. Not when detective L/n & I got this far.

I didn't want to stop no at least not when we got this far & risked our lives for this.

To be continued...
