Chapter 26

October 2020 article  

Society gossip site In The Scoop:

Hello, my thirsty little heathens! Looks like one of our favorite chaebols has finally found his knight in shining armor. Sources told me that ARCADIUM CEO, the elusive Park Jimin, had a bit of a tussle with an ex in the lobby of his 45-storey building. Apparently, the silver-haired stunner was about to get hit right in the kisser (noooo, not the pouty lips motherfucker!) but his gorgeous new boyfriend stepped up and hit the guy hard enough to make him bleed! Be still my fucking heart, that's such a power top move, ain't it? And, as Jimin and the boyfriend made a dramatic exit from the scene, sources said that the two began kissing just before they entered the chaebol's private elevator. Ahhh yes, looks like they're at the honeymoon stage folks, so intense, so fucking hot!

So who's the boyfriend? We have a name, folks. I'm told that the guy is Kim Namjoon, a pilot who works for Air Korea. Well fuck, this is reviving my crush on Top Gun era Tom Cruise all over again. Say it with me bitch-- I.Feel.The.Need! The.Need.For.Speed! Pilots are hella hot, yes? I just wonder if he's letting Jimin pull the stick while he's giving him the ride of his life. My guess is the chaebol's experiencing high-level turbulence on the regular 'cause based on that viral video of the fight that's going around, looks like Mr. Kim has a huge COCKpit! Ugh, he can Crash Land in my neighborhood and plough me into the dirt anytime! Stay tuned for more tea on this gorgeous duo, and drink your water, bitches!

Kim Namjoon makes his way through the crowded Incheon Airport, expertly dodging ajummas with full-to-bursting luggage and weaving through groups of young travelers taking selfies in the chaotic space. 

He's a man on a mission. Right now, his goal is to get on the Air Korea plane ASAP because, for the first time in his entire career, the man is actually running late. But he only has himself to blame for his tardiness. He's the one who insisted on cuddling his very sexy boyfriend for 10 more minutes after they woke up in each other's arms. The cuddle session turned into another 10 minutes of passionate kissing, and of course that turned into slow, passionate, I'm-gonna-miss-you sex. 

Never mind that Namjoon is just flying to Tokyo, is staying there for about an hour or so, and then flying back to Seoul on the same day. Which means that in roughly about six hours, he'll be home again and back in Jimin's arms. Still, that doesn't prevent the slight ache in Namjoon's heart as he presses a soft kiss onto Jimin's lips after the younger dropped him off at the airport. 

Damn Namjoon, you're being utterly ridiculous right now, he thinks to himself as he narrowly avoids colliding with a hyperactive child running around the airport. The tightness in his chest eases a bit when he thinks about the fact that he's going to be back in time for dinner with his boyfriend, so he picks up the pace and makes a beeline towards the waiting plane.

"Morning, hyung!" Namjoon cheerfully greets Jin as he enters the cockpit.

"Morning, Maverick," Jin snickers while scrolling through his phone. 

Namjoon gives his best friend a weird look. "Been watching Top Gun again, hyung?" he absently says as he starts to do preflight checks. Glancing at his best friend, he continues. "You really should start watching other movies. Maybe something from this decade."

"Yaah, you uncultured swine, some of the best movies ever came from the 80s and 90s, don't even get me started on that," Jin scoffs. "And besides, it's been ages since I've watched Top Gun. What I'm watching right now is far more interesting."
