Fourteen

Taehyung gripped his phone, his body unable to move as he stared at the ravenette. He saw him roll his eyes in annoyance.

"I said get in or I'll drag you myself."

It took a moment for those remarks to settle in his head before he abruptly opened the door and hopped inside the car with his hand sweating from nervousness.

Taehyung sat silently beside Jungkook as the car finally moved away from the building. He maintained a safe distance between them, hand still gripping his phone as if his life depended on it.

He didn't expect to see Jungkook nor be in the backseat of his car with him. He could feel the tension getting thicker by the minute, suffocating the hell out of him.

Nobody talked.

Everything felt awkward as Taehyung looked outside the window, his whole body fully aware of Jungkook's presence by his side, making it even more uncomfortable.

He doesn't know where they were heading nor why he's been taken away with the ravenette.

It only dawned on him that he went with him without even realizing why and where the hell they are going.

Fuck.

He remembered Jimin's warning not to go near Jungkook. If he'll find out he just blindly hopped inside his car...

He'll kill me, for sure.

Taehyung was contemplating on his actions when he noticed that the car is about to enter a huge gate. He saw reporters swarming near the gate, their cameras quickly focusing on the incoming car.

He almost panicked, but realized that the car was heavily tinted, blocking everyone inside from the reporters' view.

The car entered the huge gate that automatically closes as soon as they got in.

Taehyung almost got his breath knocked off his chest, seeing the huge almost mansion-like house inside.

The car entered an enclosed parking lot where a lot more cars are parked. Taehyung might have counted more than ten cars, but he's not so sure.

Then, they came into a halt.

A valet opened his door for him. He awkwardly went out, seeing Jungkook do the same.

"Follow me."

He heard Jungkook speak, making him turn his heel towards him. He silently trailed behind his back, eyes scanning the aesthetic of the whole place.

The house screams grandeur and elegance. Abstract paintings were hanging on the hallway, adding a sophisticated feel in the whole place.

He was busy appreciating the artworks when he noticed that they're heading to a room upstairs.

Taehyung silently followed, entering the room behind Jungkook. He saw huge bookshelves with tons of books surrounding the whole room. He could smell the distinct fragrance of the books, calming his nerves in an instant.

It's probably his favorite fragrance in the entire world.

His thoughts were cut off by Jungkook's stern voice.

"It seems you have the audacity to ignore me."

Taehyung bit his lower lip, eyes lowering on the floor.

"I-I didn't ignore you. My manager is just out of the country so he hasn't gotten the time to meet you yet." The brunet said under his breath.

Jungkook scoffed at this. "I'm pretty sure I didn't ask for your manager to meet me."
