The next few days passed by quickly and they were now only one day away from their assignment, Jeno felt like he had the upper hand, the day after Jeno had talked to the chief he had quickly asked Renjun to hack into the American Bureau that Jaehyun had worked at and then quickly sent him on his way not telling Renjun what he was doing.

Jeno had found her file quickly and saw that her contract was terminated, because of an incident with her boss where she had fractured one of his ribs and broke his nose, Jeno widened his eyes at how brutal the report was, they wrote what happened down as aggravated assault before terminating her contract and Jeno felt sort of bad for her old captain.

Meanwhile Jaemin had gotten closer to Jaehyun and everyone had noticed it, the two would even train together after everyone had left, Jaehyun thought that Jaemin was only being nice to her out of pity but he made sure to reassure her that he wasn't, even though he wasn't exactly believable, but the new found friendship had Jeno on edge, he didn't like the fact his best friend was now best friends with his enemy.

Jaehyun thought that maybe Jeno was finally warming up to her and that he was slowly coming to terms with the arrangement and that he was making progress but she quickly forgot all about his progression and now he was back to being snappy and annoyed with everything she did, like how long she breathed, how fast she blinked, he was just always on her case about something, but today Jeno had fucked up badly.

"What's your problem Officer?" Jaehyun had yelled from the top of the stairs, Everyone had turned to look at her as she stormed inside the room stomping down the stairs and threw the stacks of papers she had found in the lobby dustbin at him, they were files she had given to Jeno to hand over to the chief yesterday, the papers flew around him while he refused to look at her.

Jaehyun had always wondered why she's always been asked to redo paperwork she had finished days ago, the Chief had told her to give it to Jeno saying that he would know what to do with it but something felt suspicious when every couple of days she'd always get the same stack of papers she had finished sent back to her by one of the senior officers claiming she hadn't done it.

So today she had sent him down to do his job and she made her way to the surveillance room and watched to make sure he was actually doing what he was saying, where she witnessed him throwing the papers out.

"I don't know what you're talking about" Jeno said nonchalantly and Jaehyun could feel her ears burn having had enough of his bullshit, Jeno tried to act innocent and unbothered but his insides grew nervous, he thought she wouldn't find out.

"Why are you acting like such a two year old? What have I done to you?" Jaehyun said tugging at the roots of her hair, Jeno turned to glare at her almost saying 'as if you don't know'.

"So you're still pissed off about the Captain position huh?" Jaehyun let out a bitter laugh causing the room to gulp, Jaehyun tried her best to bite back her remarks about the touchy subject, she didn't want to use the 'im your boss' card against him but looks like she might have too.

"Like I said I don't know what you're talking about, now if you would mind I need to get work done" Jeno said turning back around from his desk, Jaehyun rolled her eyes and scoffed.

Jaehyun took a few steps back and clapped gaining everyones attention, the room became tense watching the burning gaze their captain had shot everyone.

"Since I've been here I've noticed a few things about this team, do you guys want to know what?" Jaehyun smiled at Jeno then averting her eyes to the group of boys still staring at her in complete shock, they hesitated but still nodded.
