It was weeks after the celebration, everyone was on their midway training. All were sweaty, and everyone is clearly enjoying their time in the field.

They were all parted, like the usual, some were training the fake grenades, some in the rifles, into the shotguns, and some were into pistols.

Namjoon was there to guide them, encouraging everyone else as well, Jwungil was at the main tent, some reporters were trying to open up their gates and some were trying to barged in, first thing in the morning.

But to Taehyung? He didn't think much of that all.

His mind was into something else, more like someone else. Namjoon have noticed it too. He had been more awfully quiet these days. He didn't even see Jungkook with him all the time, as if both have something that everyone didn't know.

Taehyung isn't thinking about Jungkook's handsome face, he didn't think about his bulky muscles this time.

But his mind was to Jungkook himself, the Jungkook he know. The Jungkook from the Christmas day one.

Not the Jungkook after the celebration.

"Hey..." He slowly looked at his side smiling sadly as he saw Namjoon. "Brother..." He says and the man sat beside him.

Everyone was doing their works and he just feels like a useless mother fucker, he didn't even know what to do in times of wars and battles. He was just there, looking at every monitors, suffocating once they turned off all for a sudden.

He was useless. he shouldn't be the Captain.
"When can I go home?" To say Namjoon was surprise, it wasn't a lie, he just think that Taehyung want it here, but oh god, he was right.

But today, Taehyung just wanted to go home for awhile. A hiatus maybe will do right?

"I thought you want it here, you've been enjoying.." Namjoon wasn't hesitating to asked, he just wanted to get the right words to say, he doesn't want to hurt his own brother, he knows he was hurt to say the least.

Taehyung was not this blue before, he wasn't this downcast before. The last time was when Namjoon broke his favorite canvas but that was before, more like was when Taehyung was 15, that days he did, ignored Namjoon but he was fine the day after, not like this when it's about a week.

It's maybe a deep reasons to begin with.

"I like it here, especially everyone. They have been good to me." He says mentally saying 'except Jongil.' but even so, Namjoon just nod.

"But, I want to have a rift too you know." he sough.

"Do you want me to send you back home?" He smiled to Namjoon and looked down to where his hands landed to, instantly holding it.

"Im okay, even though I want to go home, i still have works to do in here, I don't wanna be left out." He says trying to excuse himself, Namjoon bob his head up and down.

"Okay, just tell me if you wanted to go home, yeah?" He nod and smile as Namjoon excused himself to call someone from the phone, he was left alone again.

Looking around he saw Jungkook with his rifle in hands, an ear map in his ear sticking into it, as he shoot once again, his body moved backwards a bit because of the impact.

And just like everyone, Jungkook sensed someone looking at him, he looked around promptly meeting Taehyung's eyes, who immediately widen and looked down, trying to hide from his strong gaze.

Jimin looked at the both of them back and forth as he sighed, putting his hands around Jungkook's shoulders. "What happened?" And then for some cue, someone announced for a break, ready for dismissals straightaway.

It's been a minutes when Jungkook concealed Jimin into everything that happened that night and he just did slap the older, complaining on how he should be the guy to have the balls on consult Taehyung.

He should be the one to man up.

Jimin did advise him to have a serious talk with Taehyung, and he did. "Hey.." Taehyung was about to walk away when he hold his hands, instantly feeling the electrifying feeling inside his chest.

"Can we talk?" Taehyung looked at him, his face was blank as he directly looked at him in the eyes.

"Im busy." Oh god, why don't he train himself on how to lie completely without being obvious? That would help right?

"You are clearly just sitting in here, without doing anything, I don't think you are busy." And just like Namjoon, he was trying to search for a good words.

"Im busy now." It was kind of cold but Jungkook doing care, as long as both of them could finally talk because a week of not talking with eachother, clearly avoiding both stares and gazes is enough for each of them to snap.

They should stop this because everyone is suspecting something, and Taehyung would be dead if everyone knows he is jealous of Jungkook kissing someone, which is clearly the only girl from the camp. Dawun. And the fact that they ain't even together will add a fuel on the fire, he could be dead.

"Please let go, I don't want to talk." He said and Jungkook's just hard headed. He doesn't want to, call him a stubborn brat but he. don't. want. to.

"Im ordering you." He said finally, Jungkook stops and slowly let go. Though he was about to go away when his father walk out from the tent, completely taking their attentions, gathering up into the middle of the field, lining up like the usual order.

"A SUDDEN ATTACK FROM A TERRORIST AROUND SEOUL, THEY ARE MORE DIFFERENT THAN BLITZKRIEG. MORE POWERFUL, THEY HAVE BEEN OUR HOSTILE YEARS AGO. WE WILL INVESTIGATE MORE AND MORE FROM THEM BEFORE ATTACKING. TRAIN MORE."

And all listened, Taehyung just have to asked something. "What group is it right now?" His father looked at him before nodding.

"IT IS A GROUP OF TERRORIST FROM BUSAN." Jungkook's head snapped, as if his neck just cackled at the sudden mentioned of a place name, he look at Taehyung who has his eyes into him as well, worriedly looking at for short, but what did shock them more is that, destined really did put him into something he didn't expected.

"THEY ARE THE WIDOWS." and he likes it.

it excite him more than being nervous.
