Stepping out of the bullet train, you turn to wave Jin a final goodbye before the doors slide shut and the train zoomed off. A heavy sigh escaped your lips as you reluctantly pulled the hood of your cropped jumper up. You didn't want to as it was simply too hot to wear it but you didn't want a repeat of what happened before with Jin. With both of you taking the same train line, you both agreed to head there together. Namjoon had been worried about how each team member would be getting home and so you and Jin decided to tag-team to the train station. 

"Isn't that him?"

"Yeah, I think it is." The muttering of two females had caught your attention when making your way down the headquarters corridor. 

"The one who used his family connections to become a Virtue Weidler?" They were definitely talking about Jin. 

"Yes, have you ever seen him on the field? He is actually hopeless, I can't believe he could wield it in the first place."  

You turned to inform Jin of the two but he simply grabbed ahold of your wrist and pulled you into a faster walking pace. 

"Just ignore them."  It was clear the elder didn't want to talk about it so you immediately shut your mouth and tried to think of a way to lighten up the tense atmosphere that had risen. 

"Jin have you always had pink hair?" Random yes but it worked. His tight grip on your wrist evidently loosened and he turned to shine you a sweet smile. He was thankful you got the hint. 

"Nope, had purple hair before this." Pointing to his set of gelled hair, Jin chuckled to himself at the thought. "Though I personally prefer pink, what do you think?"  Even though the two of you had rounded the corner, meaning you where out of view from the two girls, you could still see Jin's lingering gaze on the corridor behind him. 

You wanted to reassure him and let him know he was anything but hopeless. You had just witnessed the said male in a duel with Jungkook and you were sure those two girls would not be able to hold their own against him. Jin was one of the seven for a reason. 

Instead, you decided to pursue your lips together and nod, "yes." If he didn't want to talk about it you shouldn't stick your nose into it. "I like the pink."

Arriving at the backdoor to the headquarters, Jin opened the door and gestured for you to exit. "Ladies first." His kind act causing you to laugh softly to yourself. You had just met the man but he had been the most gentlemen like person you've ever come across. You couldn't really get your head wrapped around the fact that those girls had just bad-mouthed one of the kindest people you had encountered. His gentlemen acts reminded you of the weapon he wielded, it seemed to match him perfectly. A pistol, the weapon for a gentleman. 

You were about to turn around and thank him but was cut short by the flash of a camera. The sheer brightness of the light caused you to stumble back. Jin was quick to catch your fall by wrapping his arm securely around your upper arm, allowing you to steady yourself. After you had recovered from the surprise flash, you whipped your head around in the direction of the said light only to be met with a swarm of reporters and photographers. 

"The hell." A silent curse left your mouth as you quickly pulled your hood up, evidently annoyed by the presses presence. 

"Champion, do you regret joining V.I.R.T.U.E?"

"Does the secret unit really exist?"

"Are you apart of it?" Almost immediately the sea of people began to shuffle closer and closer as many microphones fought their way to catch your responses.

"What else is V.I.R.T.U.E hiding from us?" 

"Please back away and give us some space!"

 With yours and Jungkook's names plastered on every inch of the city, it was near to impossible people would not recognise you. You didn't want to deal with any more questions or hateful stares so you coward away behind the safety of your hood. It had taken you and Jin over half an hour to push through the crowd that had formed. So just the idea of being recognised again caused a shiver to run down your spine. 

The moisture of your skin caused your glasses to gradually descend down the length of your nose. Luckily, the night wind seemed to have cooled down providing a small sense of relief as it softly kissed your hot skin. 

As you slowly approached the park you began to lift your gaze up from the floor to directly in front of you. There didn't seem to be anyone in the park at this hour of night so you were safe to show a bit of your face. You still kept your hood up just in case. 

The heat wasn't helping much with your drained and tired muscles, appeared to only be slowing you down. Your light footsteps from this morning were replaced with heavy weighted ones, identical to your mood. 

Throughout the day, there were countless of times you were reminded of the pressure of the mission the next day and you had though the dread and anxiety had already settled in...but it seems it had only begun. 

You tried to busy your mind with pointless thoughts such as how nice the night sky looked. The stars twinkled brightly along with the low yellow casting light of the moon. You could make out the constellations of Canis Major and Orion. It really was a beautiful night which only leads you to think that it would be a nice day tomorrow as well. You mother and father used to always tell you that if the night sky was clear and you could make out the starts, the next day would be a great day. The thought of your mother instantly brought a small smile to your face, allowing you to momentarily forget about your worries for tomorrow. 

Hopefully, the presumably 'good day' installed meant good news for the agency. 

Now at the outskirt of the park, you crossed the road and took a left into a smaller street. Your mind was so occupied you hadn't noticed a small feline creep it's way over and brush its fluffy black fur against your bare leg. The soft sensation made you yelp in shock and jump, however, your actions didn't seem to affect the creature as it continued to nuzzle its face into your leg. Once you noticed the black fur ball, you clicked your tongue in slight annoyance although it soon melted away into admiration. 

"Hello there." Crouching over, you extended your hand out to caress the cat's soft cheek. The feline immediately purred into your touch and proceeded to curl itself around you. You tilted your head to the side slightly and chuckled. "Are you a stray?" Moving your soft pats to the cat's neck, you rubbed the place where a collar usually sat but found nothing. 

"She is." Voice cutting through the slight night, you turned around to finally realise a second figure. He was crouched over near the white wall, body surrounded in cats. 

"Jimin?" Standing up with the black cat now in your grasp, you took a step closer to take a better look at the said male. How did he beat you and Jin? Both of you left before Jimin did and yet he had beaten you. 

Jimin simply replied with a nod, he must have been too engrossed with whatever he was doing with the cats. Under further inspection, you found him crouched in front of a bowl of tuna.

At the smell of the food, the black cat in your arms began to wriggle its way free. You sensed it struggle and let her go, allowing her to join her other friends who were eating their way through the tuna. 

Jimin grinned at the feline and patted her back, earning a soft purr. "Cute." He mumbled to no one in particular, he seemed to be really fond of them. 

As soon as the black cat finished with the food she immediately made her way back to you, a small whine left her mouth as she waited for more pats. You rolled your eyes playfully at the fluffball and gave in. "Fine." Crouching down next to Jimin, you petted the cats head softly. 

"She seems fond of you," Jimin softly commented before reaching out to join you in patting the feline. His voice was soft and velvet like, completely contrasting with the firm one from headquarters. It was something about the cats that made Jimin seemed to feel at ease. The blondes muscles were visibly less tense and a genuine tender smile dawned his lips when he watched the cats fight over the food. 

"Too bad I can't take you home." You stuck out your bottom lip and ruffled the small cat's fur, the cat meowed in response. "You see these cats often?" Looking up from the cat to Jimin, you watched as he quickly nodded his head. 

"I usually come after training to feed them." Eyes widening in absolute adoration, Jimin's eyes twinkled when the cat laid down onto her back and meowed, demanding more pats. 

"You really like cats huh?" You say after witnessing his interaction. 

"Just animals in general." He said without breaking eye contact with the cat. 

Quickly checking the time on your watch, you cringed slightly at how late it had gotten. You swore you had only been here patting those adorable creatures for five minutes, how had nearly twenty minutes passed?

"Well, I'm off. You live around here?" Giving the feline one last pat, you retracted your hand and pushed yourself up from the floor. 

"Yeah, I'll walk with you." Sensing your movement, Jimin too stood up and began to walk down the street. "Are you okay about tomorrow?" He calmly brought up.

"I mean..." Trailing off, you tried to figure out a way to describe all the emotions you felt about tomorrow. "Let's just say I won't getting much sleep tonight."

"Don't worry, we just need to ensure the broadcast goes smoothly." He was trying his hardest to convince you but why did it feel like it was more directed to himself. 

"You don't sound so sure." You bluntly pointed out, slightly surprising Jimin in the process. 

"We will always have our doubts. We just have to maintain a positive attitude towards it, then we can momentarily rid the doubt." He began before stopping and pivoting around to face you. "Whatever is installed for tomorrow can change but only if you believe it can."

A little bit off fluff with Jimin and a small introduction into Jin our eldest! If there is something you are nervous or anxious for just remember Jimin's advice. 

I hope you all soaked that all in because what I have installed for you all in the next few chapters is anything but fluff.
