Outlaws (vkook)

TP POV:

"How do you know about my military background?" Jungkook went straight to the point as he stared at the male in front of him closely.

They were in the coffee shop Jin works in, he got them a secluded table away from the usual crowd. No one could hear them from there and vise versa.

"Easy there, Jeon. Talk softly. Walls have ears" the brunette spoke really lowly and looked around.

Jungkook sighed and nodded not having another choice.

"Now answer me" the raven again pressed. His expression was dead serious. And so for the first time since they've met, Taehyung looked at him in the eyes with his real face. Someone who had multiple layers and greater depth than he let people see.

What Jungkook saw wasn't the usual bubbly and smiling Taehyung. This Taehyung was deep, mysterious, and very endearing.

"You do know that your files are completely sealed right? No one can get access to it. The hard copy was destroyed and there's only one digital file in the military's main database which is also heavily sealed." Taehyung said to the latter. Jungkook furrowing his eyebrows in confusion.

"The new ones don't know you and the old soldiers are forbidden to talk about you. So how do you explain that I know you?" The brunette asked after throwing in the hint.

"You were there during my military days?!" The raven whisper shouted shocked. Taehyung nodded and sighed at his dumbfounded expression.

Thought the raven thought of it, he didn't think his theory would come true.

Taehyung was also ex-military.

Now almost everything made sense. His posture, skills, strength, and senses. He was trained the same way Jungkook was.

"Everyone knew who captain Jeon was. Even if I didn't meet you I knew who you were." The brunette said.

Jungkook stared at him for a few minutes, if Taehyung was ex-military then he knew Jungkook's full story.

"Which rank were you? And why did you leave?" The raven asked curiously, now feeling a bit comfortable around him since he finally met someone who shared his past slightly.

Taehyung bit his lip nervously. His eyes, unsure as they searched Jungkook's black orbs. The raven noticed the change in Taehyung's posture. "What's wrong?" The raven asked.

Taehyung just shook his head and sighed. "I- I um, I was a lieutenant. I was going to be promoted to captain, but things didn't end well and now I'm here" Taehyung vaguely explained.

Jungkook nodding and humming. "Who was your commanding officer?" The raven asked and watched the other's every move.

Taehyung shifted uncomfortably and gulped from the nerves. His forehead was sweating from the tension.

"Issac Belrich" Taehyung mumbled but Jungkook heard him loud and clear. The raven went stiff for a moment before anger slowly started to bubble inside of him. He was about to walk away after hurriedly standing up but Taehyung gripped his hand tightly.

Jungkook was yet again surprised by how strong his grip was even for someone from the military. Jungkook couldn't move his hand from the table.

"Please hear me out." Taehyung pleaded and looked up at the tall male. And Jungkook saw the morality in those eyes and the sincerity that was in those chocolate orbs.

So reluctantly he sat back down and waited for the other to say something.

"I am looking for Belrich as well. That bastard has done things to me no one should ever go through. I want him dead" Taehyung said with conviction in his voice. And Jungkook knew the minute he saw the look in his eyes that he wasn't bluffing. Because he knew that look all too well. He's seen that look every time he looked in the mirror.

A look of bloodlust and hatred.

"Why? What did he do to you?" He asked as he stared at the male with narrowed eyes.

Taehyung sighed again. "You won't believe me if I told you. I'll have to show you. But not here. Meet me at the rooftop at GD's this evening. Please." The brunette said. Jungkook just gave him a firm nod that was a clear indication that he'll be there and left immediately after. Leaving Taehyung seated alone at the table.

"So, who's the hunk?" Jin's voice reached Taehyung's ears after some minutes as the male slowly walked over to him.

Taehyung looked up to see the older wiggling his eyebrows at him playfully. The brunette managed a small smile "hyung, I need to talk to you and Jimin when we get back to the apartment. Stay up for me alright?" He requested. Jin nodded and offered him a smile.

"Alright, Taebear! Now tell me about the hunk" Jin was relentless making Taehyung giggle at his antics.

My scars are carved too deep into my soul to ever fade. And the fact that I have a reminder on me every second of the day just makes the situation even worse.
