"Let's go out for drinks."
The suggestion hung wearily in the air as the suggester looked happily about his co-workers. Hoseok was pleased with himself for work had gotten done and since it was the weekend, he thought they all deserved some unwinding time. The long day was in much need of time for fun or so he was thinking when he heard groans throughout the day.
"Only if you pay." Taehyung responded.
Hoseok pointed to him. "Sure but get cheap stuff. How about the rest of you?"
The two sitting opposite were quick to deny the offer. Both were awfully tired and quite frankly sick of seeing each other. Jimin felt as though he'd seen all their faces a lot more than he wished and now all he wanted for to not catch sight of any of them. He said he had plans and so did Yoongi.
"Oh you guys have your date do you not?" Jungkook spoke up.
Hoseok's jaw dropped for only point two seconds before he clapped excitedly. He congratulated the two for immersing in a new stage of a relationship. The suppose couple pretended to be thankful for his congratulations be in reality they were both suffering through it. In the end they figured the embarrassment was for nothing for they'd both get to be away from everyone but that was proved very wrong. Minutes later the two partners found themselves in a car driving behind one in which the rest of their co-workers were.
"You couldn't have pretended to past out or something?" Yoongi scoffed annoyed.
Jimin sighed. "I regret not doing so now."
The place of arrival was only half an hour more away yet the driver decided they stopped. Jimin did not question him, just waited as the man stepped out of the car and into the parking lot of a several stores. He stayed put for only about a minute for his door was opened and Yoongi's head dove down to meet eyes with his.
"What?" Jimin asked confused.
"You're going to have to drive."
Jimin groaned loudly but did as so for he could see clearly just how tired his partner was. He did nothing but complain as they got closer for many reason. For one, he was exhausted. Sleep seemed to last mere hours in the past few days that a full night was very much needed. Since that was the case, Yoongi wasn't the only one having trouble keeping his eyes open. Thankfully for them both, they arrived just in time before Jimin completely lost himself to his tiredness. He whined loudly once Taehyung was at his window, urging them both to hurry on out. When they both did make it into what was a bar unlike they expected but were glad to see.
The venue was lighted with a dark yellow dim that settled nicely against the rusty theme it had going on. Men and women gather about chattering with the noise of low music and the sports game displaying on the multiple screens around the place. They five settled into a round booth where they all had just enough space to be on the border of comfortable.
"This is great right!?" Hoseok asked cheerfully. "I thought it was better than some loud nightclub with sweaty drunk people."
They all agreed. No one had the stamina to try that out together on such night, not after the long and tiring day they had all been through. Each order themselves something to munch on as well as drinks, some went heavier than others.
"I sure hope those two aren't for you." Jimin commented upon seeing Yoongi take the two beer glasses from their waiter's hands. The question was answered when he first took a sip from the cup on his right then even longer one from the one in his left hand.
"They sure are sweet cheeks." Yoongi said. "It's better than that mom drink you got there."
The white wine in the glass would have gasped from the insult if it could but it couldn't so Jimin just shook his head before drinking it. A conversation sparked about the table, first about work but then swerved to the learning of the newest member. It was the first time the team was out of the workplace with Jungkook so they took it as the perfect time to get to know him better. The young man was a prodigy, he had been let graduate a whole year before the assigned time. He was seen as perfect for the new rookies in the detectives division instead of the missing's persons department in which he had originally wished to work in.
"Wow!" Taehyung yelped loudly, "So you're like really smart!?"
Jungkook shrugged his shoulders as compliments from all around the table were said about him. It was safe to assume just about everyone was astonished by his path to them. However, the conversation of him came to an end for two at the table left. Hoseok and Taehyung somehow had started a conversation with a group of woman across the room and after much of their begging, they finally headed over to them. The three at the table weren't as talkative as them but still upheld a chat. Jimin was telling Jungkook the story of how he ended up with his kitten Koshi when felt a hand on his thigh, near his knee. Yoongi's move was not ignored, it was rejected with a slap of a hand.
"As I was saying..." Jimin muttered angrily towards the male who was now on what was mostly likely his fifth cup of beer before continuing his story. Yoongi however did not take the heeding of an angry tone for he brought himself closer to Jimin until he ended up resting his head on the male's shoulder. He completely disregarded the conversation of his other two teammates as he leaned up to whispered in Jimin's ear.
"I've got something to tell you." Yoongi whispered in his partner's ear. "We have to get rid of him."
The smell of acohol was strong in Jimin's nostrils, he did not appreciate it very much. He shook off Yoongi for the time he could which he came to learn wasn't long. The older male joined into the other's two chat but it was clear that his interest laid in one more than the other.
"It was alright but...Oh Jungkook I think Tae's calling for you."
The male turned his head in search for his calling just as Yoongi did with his partners. Jimin, taken aback from the two's closeness, looked surprised. There wasn't much else that Jimin could do so he stilled himself in place as Yoongi held out his own secret plan. He placed himself close enough to his partner that his nose touched his cheek and his lips grazed it. Yoongi talked nonsense for a few seconds before he stopped to chuckle at the face made by the youngest.
"Alright, I get it." Jungkook stood from the table with his hands up defensively. "I almost forgot what tonight was suppose to be for you two."
It was waited for a back to be to the two before Jimin pushed away Yoongi with an annoyed face. He called him a drunk before angrily grabbing his cup of wine which was still his first and was barely drunk from. However, another sip did not make it to his lips but a hand did around him.
"Yoongi!" Jimin whined as he partner held the cup of wine to his own lips.
"Sorry sweet cheeks but I need you to listen to me."
Jimin crossed his arms and looked around the bar as he considered leaving Yoongi on his own or actually listening in. It was embarrassing enough what he'd done so Jimin decided to stay to listen to what the male had to say. At first Yoongi's thoughts were all over the place or so the other was thinking for he was not understanding what was really his argument. Eventually he came to realize a common word, among the drunk's words, Jungkook.
"What if he saw me?" Yoongi said. "Jimin what if that's why he wants to go back to search that apartment? Maybe he'll hope to find remains that can prove it like-"
Time slowed down for Jimin so much that even Yoongi's words were becoming disfigured. Who they spoke of in an incriminating sentence of themselves was far closer than either one had seen coming. In a moment of panic, Jimin unhooked his arms from each other. He took hold of one side of his partner's face before bringing together their lips.
Everything unfroze in that moment.
