Bam-bam placed down two cards, his eyes scanning Jeon as the mafia leader gripped the card on top of the deck. Bam-bam had a smile on his face, he was clearly enjoying the time he spent playing this game.

But, before Jeongguk could even lift his finger, a man walked from the door that Jungkook was looking to get into. It was a slim looking guy who had a frown on his face. His face soon melted in shock as he saw who was in the base.

" Hello.. Jeon.." The guy mumbled, bringing a gentle hand to his forehead to wipe away any arising sweat he felt starting to form.

"Mark!" Bam-bam cheered, clapping his hands together excitedly. He gave his friend a side hug before looking up at him. He really wanted to continue the gambling, but would pause for his friend if need be.

"Well, Baekhyun says he needs to see you right now, and that you guys should stop playing around. He wants Bam-bam to see him after the deal." Mark explains, opening the door and holding it open for the other guys to walk into. It looked similar to other bases, a general room, and Baekhyun's office.

Jeongguk walked into Baekhyun's office with Taehyung. Baekhyun was sitting in his black leather chair, his hair looked freshly washed, his skin was glowing in beauty. He looked very cute and not at all intimidating. It reminded Jungkook of Taehyung.

"Today, I have gathered you both for a compromise. We, our gangs have been arguing for so many years its been hard to count, really. Our war started by the old leaders, the ones who held control of the groups before we had any say in what was to happen to our groups. I think that we should come together. Sure, its very controversial, and you probably still want to lead, but we will be unstoppable with your leading talent and my strong, smart members. If we joined forces, we could take down anything. This is not often that two groups join each other, but you can lead this project completely, and if you hate it, we can break and become enemies once again, but this idea brings so much power forged together between the two of our groups. I really think this could work, if you just trust us, Jeon. We have ordered a team of men to build us a whole new base, a bigger and more advanced one, well hidden, not underground or in a basement. We can make this work, what do you say?"

Jeon looked to his left, there Taehyung sat, his eyes were focused on Baekhyun's office. On the desk, held a picture of Baekhyun and another guy, [a/n: Chanyeol.] the two were hugging. It was a nice sight in the middle of a mafia base. It was a nice office, the room was spacious and well decorated. Was it the best option to join with them? They had been arch enemies for so long, but then again, why were they even so mad at each other all the time? Was it not time to end all war and bring in peace?

If not for him, then maybe the male sitting next to him? Maybe Taehyung being safe was his main priority now, he could care less about all of those idiotic deals, he should care about the one thing that completely, totally; makes him happy.

Taehyung lifted his head and smiled gently at Jungkook, who felt his heart speed up. How could he still make him feel like this? Why did he ask himself so many questions?

So many people are so caught up in the moment to even life their own life. Too scared to express their opinions and they always end up doing what society wants them to do. Say what society thinks they should say. People are too scared to let themselves be free; happy. Jungkook let out a sigh of content; relief. He gave Taehyung a small, gentle smile back.

"Sounds good, Baekhyun."
Jungkook gave the man a smile as he slid his hand over to Taehyung's, linking it with his and giving it a small squeeze.

Baekhyun nodded his head and gave Jungkook's; unoccupied hand a shake.

"You've made a good choice, Jeon. We won't let you down. We promise." Baekhyun gave him a thumbs up.
