Bad Guy? [Jikook + Vmin]

65

after the fun, light-hearted, i-don't-care-about-anything hour of playing board games; it was time to come back to reality when a maid knocked on taehyung's door requesting to come in.

jimin spring into action and immediately went and locked himself in the bathroom as taehyung opened the door. "what're you doing here this early?"

"your highness just wanted me to make sure that you were still in your room. he's coming to talk to you after he talks to—" the maid looked past taehyung and saw jungkook awkwardly standing there; fidgeting with his hands behind his back. "—mr. jeon."

"i was just on my way back there, anyway. thank you for telling me," jungkook bowed and started walking back to his room as taehyung nodded to the maid and closed the door.

"it's ok," taehyung spoke and saw jimin come out of the bathroom and frown at the fact that jungkook left. now it'd just go back to being awkward.

jimin continued out and looked at the abandoned game of life before looking back at taehyung. "where should i go?"

"what do you mean?" taehyung started cleaning up the game so he could avoid eye contact with the older.

jimin started at taehyung intently as he answered, "well, when the king comes to talk to you. what if he needs to go to the bathroom? you can't really deny him of that."

"then you'll hide in my closet," taehyung stretched to put the life game away and closed the walk in closet before facing back to jimin again. "there's no reason for him to go in there."

"guess you're right," jimin looked down and went to sit on the bed. "...you w—"

"maybe you should go in the closet now. we don't know when he's gonna come," taehyung spoke.

"taehyung," jimin growled, but quickly stopped and took a deep breathe. "you didn't let me finish before when i was talking; i-i'm assuming that's why you're acting like this."

"you assumed wrong. i just...didn't get a lot of sleep last night," taehyung signed as he squeezed his hands into fists. "cause i didn't care about it either."

jimin froze. he knew he was lying; he was just saying that because he thought jimin felt like that. he knew that this was just taehyung trying to hide his real emotions.

but why'd it hurt so bad when he said it?

"...ok. i'll go in the closet," jimin muttered and went into the closet; closing the door behind him.

taehyung groaned and roughly raked his hands through his hair. what should i do...what the fuck should i do...

after sitting on the bed and staring at the closet for about 15 minutes; their was a knock on his bedroom door. "come in," he said before pulling his eyes off the closet and to the opening door.

"it's me," jungkook said as he walked in. he didn't look good. "i need to talk to you."

taehyung looked even more worried as his eyebrows furrowed and followed jungkook with his eyes; noticing how he's fidgety and refusing to sit down. "what's wrong?"

"is jimin here?" he whispered; obviously not wanting anyone, even jimin, to hear what he's saying. taehyung nodded as he pointed to his closet. "...i don't think he wants to hear this.

"what do you want me to do? it's not like we can send him outside or anything," taehyung whispered in the same tone jungkook was using. "you want to put him in your room?"

"no...i can just keep whispering," jungkook said; now sitting for the sake of taehyung being able to hear him better.

taehyung turned his body towards jungkook and nodded for him to continue.

"taehyung..." jungkook gulped. "my father is suspicious. he's sending guards to moirae to look for jimin...says if we have him and we don't tell him...tae jimin'll be in more trouble than the both of us combined. he'll be locked up in the cells and put on trial for going to prison or...or..."

the prince shuddered and gulped. "or what?"

jungkook's big doe eyes finally met taehyung's as he said, "or even execution."

"WHAT?!" taehyung yelled as he sprung up; immediately being brought right back down by jungkook who quickly slapped a hand over the older's mouth.

"shut the fuck up, taehyung!" jungkook whisper-yelled. "we have to come up with something! they're gonna see jimin's gone and will stop at nothing to find him here!"

taehyung slowly removed jungkook's hand from his mouth before biting his lip and taking a quick glance at the closet. "m-maybe we can c-convince the guards that h-h-he's just hiding somewhere on moirae. wouldn't th-that be believable?"

"we can't take any chances," jungkook spoke more serious then taehyung had ever heard. "we need to make sure he's not found here; understood? we need to find somewhere no one else knows about to put him."

taehyung shook his head as an idea popped into his mind. "couldn't we just ask jimin to use his invisibility magic?"

"mmm...i didn't wanna alarm him of the situation but...i guess that would be the safest option," jungkook stood up and looked toward the closet; raising his voice just a bit as he said, "jimin!"

after a second or two; jimin creaked open the door just a little to see only jungkook and taehyung staring back at him. feeling relieved; he stepped out and crossed his arms at the two. "i knew i heard muttering in here. what's going on?"

"can you use your invisibility magic for long?" taehyung went straight to the point and stood up alongside jungkook.

jimin gave them a questioning look before he had to think for a second. "i think so; it's been over 10 hours since i last used it...so yeah."

"over 10 hours? what does that mean?" jungkook asked as he quizzically looked at jimin.

"it means if i use it over 10 minutes at one time without changing visible for a minute or two before going back; then i have to wait for my power to recharge. especially here on lonnex since i'm not used to the type of atmosphere here...if that makes sense," jimin said. "and i can use it up to a half hour before things could...malfunction. but i don't want to go into all that."

"ok..." jungkook went deep into thought as jimin still stared at them questioningly.

"aren't you gonna tell me why you're asking these questions?" jimin huffed and looked at the princes expectantly; both had faced that looked a little too scared to tell him anything. "what is it?"

ok sO i added 100 more words because i feel bad for not sticking to my schedule. it wasn't really because of anything other than a bit of writer's block and a lot of nights staying up to 6 am on tiktok or with friends. i'm really sorry i took 5 days to update!

i just finished watching the help and would 10/10 recommend. it was REALLY good.

anyways i'm bored so i'm gonna go watch camp rock (no i'm not 8; i'm 14. i just like reminiscing with old movies i used to watch) so wish me luck.

💜stay safe💜
