Thank you so much for the new cover ToffeeK_ 💜💜😘

Jungkook's pov

Fucking hell why am I always late from everything?! Thank god I got some sleep, but that doesn't mean that I wanted to fucking sleep over the alarm! That has literally never happened to me before.

The library is quiet as always as I step into the building, the people closest to the door sending me weird looks, probably beacuse of my appearance as a panting mess.

I just awkwardly let out a small toothless smile and bow down in embarrasment, soon enough the annoyed looks are being directed back to the old books and magazines leaving me alone with shame.

I know for a fact that V will be at the back of the library again, no doupt. That's the only place where people won't catch us in each other's presence and that's obviously for the best. I'm in the mafia now.

My heart feels to beat faster by every step I take, but I try to keep the tough boy image as well as I can, he's still my boss now I like it or not. I can't act like a little kid in front of him and make a joke of myself that way. Also, we really need to get the presentation done.

The long rows of books start to make me a bit dizzy as I head myself past them and run my eyes over the colorful book covers garnishing the endless range. I have never been one to read as Jimin has done it for me too.

I couldn't understand his passion for reading when we were younger but neverthless let him read the boring fairy tales for me in the tree house. It was out hideout and we spent all of our summer days in there.

"You are late, again", the deep voice I know all too well speaks up, bringing me back from the nostalgic thoughts. My breath hitches like every time I see or hear the man, but try to hold in the reaction and proudfully can say that I believe I did a pretty good job.

"Sorry, I-",

"Whatever, just do the presentation." Wow, this boy just doesn't know the manners.

I watch with an annoyed look as he makes himself comfortable on the very uncomfortable small wooden chair and he takes a black phone from his black denim jacket's pocket. The outfit he's wearing isn't the usual, I see.

The dark hoodie and tight black jeans have changed to a lukewarm black denim jacket and a pair of black ripped jeans. The hair isn't held back by bandana as normally when a hood isn't covering it, the hair is actually in full display and nothing is covering his head.

Jungkook's breath hitches again when it finally hits him. The pitch black hair from before has turned to a beautiful shade of electric blue. "I know I'm hot but no need to stare", the male says with a blank face and Jungkook feels himself blush as he averts his eyes away.

He clears his throat and sits down on the only available chair in front of the small round table. A small scoff leaves his lips and he throws the heavy backpack to the ground after taking the English book out and placing it on the table.

V doesn't even glance at him as he just leans back on his own chair and takes a phone from his pocket and starts scrolling on it. Right, he'll fucking have to do this all by himself, not like he would want the other to help anyway, they would probably just get a failed. Jungkook rolls his eyes one more time before starting to write away.

This continues for twenty minutes, Jungkook writing and writing, V not sparing him a glance and going to the 'toilets' for at least four times now. What the fuck does he even do in there after going so many times?!

Finally Jungkook gets to write the last word on the paper and he's finally done. "You done? Good, I'm leavi-",

"JUNGKOOK!!", both of the boys' shocked eyes turn to look at Jimin who's running towards them on full speed and with a horrified look on his face. Jungkook feels confused and when Jimin finally stops, he glances at an angry looking V and gulps.

"H-how did you know where I am?", he asks in shock and Jimin rolls his eyes like it's obvious. "Yous still haven't learned about the snapchat map have you?", the smaller male asks while panting and now Jungkook can feel V's strong gaze fixated on him.

"Anyway, that's not important now, have you heard the news?" Jungkook shakes his head as an answer and Jimin's face pales again when he seems to remember the news he came to share with the younger.

"M-mr.Jung has been murdered."

Jungkook can feel his heart stop beating and the ground start shaking under his woppling legs. "w-what?", he whispers, the voice barely coming out from his closing throat. Jimin gives him a pitiful look and sighs.

"Your dance and performance teacher Mr.Jung has been murdered last night. He was found in some abandoned building a few miles away this morning. He had been shot three times in the chest", Jimin explanes with small voice, his face covered in sadness.

Jungkook listens to the older's every word closely but he can't remember anything he said after Jimin finishes. His mind is totally blank and all he can think is he's dead he's dead he's dead.

When Jimin gasps rather loudly, Jungkook snaps his head towards his best friend who seems to just have realized that V is standing right behind Jungkook.

"Y-your hair-", "Bye, see you", the blue haired male says hurriedly to Jungkook before sprinting down the hallway and disappearing behind the bookshelves before Jungkook gets the chance to answer. Jimin gasps again after the blue haired male is out of sight and turns back to his best friend.

"See you?! What does he mean by see you?!", the shorter male asks but Jungkook's mind is somewhere else so he doesn't hear the question.

Where did V go in such a rush? What did the confused look on his face mean? When the words left Jimin's mouth, he automaticly thought that V's gang had killed the teacher but now that he thinks about it, why would have they? They don't have any reason to kill him, not unlike he has done something similiar to someone important to them, as what he did to Jungkook.

Jungkook is pretty sure at this point that V knows what went down in the gym class that day but surely that wouldn't be enough for him to kill the man. Jungkook means nothing to him, actually quite the opposite. V seems to hate him for some reason.

The other thing is, V seemed to be as shocked at the news as Jungkook himself, at least judging by his confused face. Maybe he still knew something as he hurried to somewhere so quickly right after hearing the news.

"Kookie, are you alright? I know this is shocking and terrifying but we need to stay strong. Can you do that for me?", Jimin asks worriedly when he notices the pale look on his best friend's face. Jungkook finally snaps away from his thoughts and lets out a shaky breath.

"Yeah, I'm fine Jiminie. How did you hear about this?", Jungkook asks and Jimin's expression seems to soften when he notices Jungkook's calm voice. He takes Jungkook's hand and sits the boy down on the chair where he had previously sat.

"The principal announced it through the central radio to the entire school a few minutes ago. The library's speakers have bee broken for a while now so when I saw you were in here I thought you hadn't heard the news yet."

Suddenly my phone starts ringing and  I'm fast to answer it, holding the cold phone with slightly shaking hands, Jimin's worried expression not going unnoticed by me. The line is quiet for a few seconds as I answer before even checking the caller ID.

"Hello?", I hestitantly question as it starts to feel weird that no one's voice fills the line in five seconds. "Kook, I'm back in Seoul and I heard the news, where are you?", a very familiar voice finally asks and my shoulders relax a bit. Why am I so nervous?

"Ah, hey hyung! I'm in the library, should we meet at the dorm in five?", Jungkook voices out and Jimin's eyebrows scrunch up in confusion. After the call is over and the younger puts the phone back in his pocket, Jimin is quick to raise his eyebrow.

"Who was it?", "Yoongi, I'm sorry I promised to meet him now, is it okay with you?", Jungkook answers and can't help but notice the slight hurt in  Jimin's expression. Jungkook is not sure if it's because Yoongi got mentioned or because Jungkook is leaving him alone again.

"Ah, y-yeah", the older mumbles and Jungkook starts to feel very bad again. Why does he have to be such an awful friend? Nowadays it feels like he's always ditching Jimin for Yoongi or someone else and the older must feel hurt. Jungkook would.

"I'm sorry Jiminie.. I can stay with you okay?", the younger finally states as he feels the overwhelming guiltiness start to eat him alive. The guilt only makes him feel even worse. "No no, it's okay Kookie, go see your friend, I heard he was in Busan for a while", Jimin says, flashing a small smile on his face.

He knew Yoongi was in Busan because he heard it from me, why did he say it like I wasn't the one to confirm him about it? Jungkook just shrugges the meaningless thoughts out of his head and hestitates for a second.

"Are you sure? I really can-", "No Jungkook, go see him, I'm fine", the older says, cutting Jungkook off mid sentence. "O-okay then.. see you around hyung", Jungkook says while giving his best friend a quick hug and starting to run towards the dorms. He said five minutes and three minutes have already passed from the phone call.

The worn out wooden door is slightly ajar when Jungkook stands in front of it only two minutes laiter. He bents down to lean on his knees to catch his breath after he just run from the library to the dorms in just two minutes, that's an achievement.

When his panting has finally quieted down, he stands up properly and is just about to grap the door handle when a sudden yell makes him stop his actions. He feels himself freez at the sudden noice and he can't help but be curious.

"You don't fucking know anything!!" The voice is Yoongi's, no doupt. He sounds very angry and Jungkook can't push the feeling of fear away at the harsh tone of his friend. What's going on and who's there with him? Yoongi knows Jungkook is coming so why is he there with someone else, arguing about who knows what?

"No one! Dad, Namjoon gave it to me, of course I had to come back! No, I'm not fucking coming back there, never!" Suddenly everything got quiet and Jungkook feels his heart start beating again.

It was clearly a phone call after all since he didn't hear any other voice coming from there. Yoongi was in phone with his dad? Who's Namjoon? Why was he so angry at his dad, was he talking about going back to Busan?

After the room has been quiet for a few minutes, Jungkook finally pulls himself back together and takes a deep breath before grapping on the door handle and yanking the door open.

There he is, Yoongi sitting on the couch with a phone in his hand and a scowl on his tired looking face. When he lifts his head up to meet the new comer's face, the younger immediately notices the small scracthes and blue bruises on his face and bare arms that are uncovered by the sleevless t-shirt he's wearing.

Althought his condition looks bad and judging by the previous phone call tell Yoongi is having a bad day, the older's face brightens up when he notices the younger standing in front of him and a smile makes it way to lighten up the atmosphere.

"Kook? You finally came?", the older asks with a bright tone, causing the younger to frown a bit. "Yeah.. why are you.. hurt?", the smaller asks in small voice and his eyes start to scan through the older's face all over again.

A sudden wave of realizion seems to take over the sitting male as his expression turns into a panicked one. "Ahh, no no, I just-", "Leave it be hyung, I won't ask questions if you don't want to answer. Come here and I'll clean the scars so you don't get infected", the younger says calmly, cutting Yoongi off and causing his face to turn into a confused frown.

Never the less, the older just sighs and nods his head slowly as he follows Jungkook to his bedroom.

"Hey Kook, you got a message from someone", he says almost immediately as he arrives in the room and hears the younger look for the first-aid kit in the bathroom. "Yeah, wait a second", the younger shouts back and comes in the room with a bag of bangages and cleaning supplies.

Jungkook places the bag in front of Yoongi who's sitting cross legged on his bed and turns around to look for his phone.

Three new messages from: Taeyong

What? Why would he suddenly message me when we have barely talked to each other these past few days? Ah right, our teacher's death...

Taeyong: Kook, you heard the
news right?

Taeyong: Guess what, I got
the pictures of V back in my phone!

Taeyong: We can show them to the police I'm sure V has something to
do with the murder, he's a fucking mafia leader! The police has promised a reward for anyone who has any information that may help them solve the case.

Jungkook drops the phone. How the hell could he get the photos back?!
