As you walk towards the next tent, a hand wraps around your left wrist which tingles your reflexes causing you to hit whoever attempted to touch you without your permission. Your right elbow hit the perpetrator's abdomen which made them lean forward in pain allowing you to grapple and push their head on the ground.

As you pin them down, you finally notice their grunts and recognize the perpetrator. You let out a relieved sigh and a tired chuckle as you ask in a low voice, "what do you want, captain?"

You let your guard down when you realized this person wasn't an intruder which gave Hoseok the perfect opportunity to use his training and turn the tables. You don't realize when you switch places with him. You analyze your situation to figure how he extricated himself and come up with many possible ways which make you curse yourself.

"You know exactly what I want," he whispers pointedly, holding your wrists tightly on the ground. Some dust from hoseok's black t-shirt, which is brown now, falls on yours so does that from the right side of his face which was previously in contact with our mother earth. A few dust particles land near your eyes urging you to close them but your eyes prefer to look at the bruise developing on his cheekbone.

"you're supposed to keep your personal life out of your work"

He looks into your eyes and tilts his head, shaking it reproachfully.

"you really don't care, do you?"

"I want you focused, captain. Our operation should be the only thing on your mind right now."

At this point, you had only one option which was to bang his head with yours. So you did. You could feel your skull go numb for some milliseconds but it got you out of his captivation, it made him loosen his grip on your wrists. Then you use your skills to fold his hands behind his back.

You turn your head as much as you can when you hear a rustle behind you.

"I-I didn't see anything," the person, whom you spot standing a few meters behind you, speaks immediately in a hesitant tone.

"lieutenant."

"major!" He responds in a bold but soft voice, concerned about his comrades' sleep, with a salute.

"handcuffs." was all you had to say for Park Jimin to dash to the main tent and get you what you want.

"y/n, what the hell?" Hoseok says indignantly when Jimin goes out of sight.

The lieutenant arrives with handcuffs in an instant and hands them to you. You cuff Hoseok's hands behind his back and push him towards Jimin.

"lieutenant."

"major!"

you look at hoseok's intense eyes. the sounds on your walkie along with crickets chirping everywhere around the camp made the silence pretty uncomfortable as you were being reminded of every second that passed and would never come back.

"take our captain to the cell, please," you command.

you turn around and dust off your cargo pants and t-shirt to carry on with your tasks.

His eyes expressed feelings you didn't want him or anyone to feel.

Guess some things are just inevitable.
