The time stops as their lips meet for a kiss that they have been craving for so long. They remember their last kiss behind their dorm building five years ago. They had held fast to it. This is just unbelievable for them that it's happening again.

When Jungkook feels the other's soft lips on his, he quickly wraps his hands around the painter's slim waist, pulling him closer. Their lips mould together perfectly and they moan in content. This is the best feeling ever. They know that the circumstances are not right for them to be doing this but they have sacrificed a lot so they deserve this, right?

Jungkook grazes his teeth gently over Taehyung's lower lip and pulls at it, making him open his mouth. Taehyung moans again, giving access to the ravenette to put his tongue inside his mouth.

Jungkook runs his hands on Taehyung's sides lovingly as his tongue works on tracing every corner of Taehyung's familiar mouth. Even though its been a long time, he could not forget this perfect feeling of being close to Taehyung. This is just a beautiful moment they are experiencing after ages. This is what they have been missing out on even though they have achieved everything they ever wanted.

When they run out of breath, they break the kiss. Taehyung immediately hugs him, not looking at him because he feels shy. Jungkook chuckles deeply. The painter looks so innocent in this moment, almost like he was five years ago.

"Why are you feeling shy after initiating the kiss yourself, Tae?" Jungkook asks, letting his hands settle on the other's hips. "Shut up. It was just in the heat of the moment." Taehyung punches Jungkook's chest playfully. In this moment, the both of them feel like the can let themselves loose. They can be at ease right now without having to worry about anything. They don't know why they feel like this but sometimes you can just stop running for a few seconds to breathe, right?

"Heat of the moment you say? So this is not the reason why you brought me here?" Jungkook quirks his eyebrows, looking at the other who evidently rolls his eyes.

"You think I would risk getting my brother angry at me by dragging you away just to kiss you?" Taehyung shakes his head while rolling his eyes.

"Why not? This was really hot." The ravenette smirks, taking a few steps forward to kiss the other again but this time he gets pushed away and earns a glare.

"Wow, you just kissed me and now you're giving me a cold shoulder? Kim Taehyung, this is unacceptable." Jungkook almost whines, making the painter chuckle. The ravenette is acting as if everything is normal. As if they did not leave everything they had midway just so they could pursue their dreams.

Silence envelopes them as they stare at each other and take in the other's appearance, trying to find any difference from college years. There are not many besides the fact that the both of them have grown more attractive, making it difficult for the other to resist.

"Did you... Did you break into my house, Jungkook?" Taehyung suddenly asks after minutes of silence. He suddenly got a thought and started wondering how his ex best friend got inside his house.

"Why would I do that?" Jungkook asks, trying to act confident but his heart is thumping in his chest. He did not exactly break into his house but he did not enter the house in the most legal way as well.

"Jungkook... I had locked the door. The fact that the door was still locked when you and the other bastard were inside my house should mean something, right?" Taehyung's heart starts beating fast as well as soon as his brain starts functioning well. He had not paid attention to this detail earlier when they were in his house because there was a lot of commotion happening. In the car too, he was busy drooling over his ex best friend which did not really give him the time to think straight.

"Look, Tae--" the ravenette tries to say something but the brunette cuts him off.

"You were not there to meet me, were you?" Taehyung gasps and looks at Jungkook as if he has seen a ghost. When the other does not react in any way and looks at him with emotionless eyes that soon turn into cold ones, Taehyung knows that he is right. He should not have trusted Jungkook so easily. He shouldn't even trust himself because a mere appearance of his ex best friend has caused his feelings to be all over the place. He is not over Jungkook and he knows that. This is also the moment he realises that he is totally fucked. The decision he made just a while ago was so wrong. He should not have done that.

Taehyung knows he has made a lot of wrong decisions in the past-- like getting involved with Mekong was the dumbest shit he ever did. His parents were furious when they came to know about it. His mom was more disappointed than angry and that's when Taehyung had decided never to disappoint them again. But what he did today was a wrong move again and he is sure his family must have already found out about it. He sighs. Seems like the guard was right. He should've stayed away from this matter.

"Taehyung, I swear-" Jungkook tries to say something again but Taehyung raises his hand to stop him.

"Don't swear, Jungkook. I know you're lying. I'm not the dumb boy from five years ago who you could fool easily." The painter looks at him with stone eyes. He suddenly feels horrible--- horrible for trusting someone like Jungkook. Why did he do that?

"Really? That's great then." The ravenette says sarcastically.

"Huh?"

"Even if you're not dumb like you say, you're not that smart too, Taehyung. But I can't really blame you. I can't blame you because you saved me from your own men. I really didn't know how to get out of the situation, specially when I have a meeting with the Yakuza soon." Jungkook grins making Taehyung want to smack the grin away from his face. He suddenly feels so humiliated.

"You used me." Taehyung whispers, feeling betrayed.

"Oh no no no! That's where you're wrong, baby. I never used you. You offered yourself." Jungkook laughs. The other boy shuts his eyes, cursing himself even more.

"I-I..." Taehyung doesn't know what to say or do. Should he just tell his brother their whereabouts? This could make things go back to normal, right? He could fix what he fucked up partially, even if he cannot do it completely.

He, very slowly, brings his hand to the watch he is wearing. If he presses a small button given in the watch, the headquarters of the Yakuza would be able to track his whereabouts. He does not want to do it but he is left with no other choice. He just realised that Jungkook did not come to his house to meet him but for some other ulterior motive. It's not safe for him. He knows Jungkook is danger. He is a ruthless killer and a very powerful mafia boss. It's stupid of him to still hold on to the fact that there was a time when the other had some feelings for him and was so ready to confess.

"Now, now, my prince. Don't try to act smart in front of me." Jungkook says, quickly wrapping his hand around the painter's wrist to stop him from pressing the emergency button.

Taehyung looks at him with a scared expression but the other just smirks. He moves closer to him and pecks his lips lightly. This further infuriates Taehyung. All he wants to do is just punch Jungkook and run away.

"Leave me, Jungkook!" Taehyung thunders, jerking his hand to free himself but it only makes Jungkook hold him tighter.

"Oh no, baby. You're going with me." Jungkook says and Taehyung's eyes widen.

"W-What?"

"You heard me. You're going with me." Jungkook's voice holds a certain finality. Taehyung's heart starts pounding and he suddenly feels difficult to breathe. Is this the moment he gets kidnapped? By his own ex best friend? Was Jungkook ever even his best friend or not? Taehyung wonders.

"So that you can use me?"

"What would I use you for? I already have good ties with the Yakuza."

"Maybe you don't want that. Who knows?" Taehyung shrugs. The ravenette looks at him with confusion and Taehyung just smiles. "Yeah. Don't give me that look. I know how many gangs you've taken over. I know how you crave for power and more power. I know it all even though I'm not much involved into all this shit. So I wouldn't be surprised if you want to take over the Yakuza as well by using me." Taehyung says confidently even though he knows that he might be assuming it all wrong and it may not even be the case, he says it because he is just too angry at the moment to think straight.

Jungkook, on the other hand, is shocked. Taehyung really has changed a lot. He is stronger and a lot more smarter. He guessed Jungkook's reason correctly.

But what he said about Jungkook wanting to use him is a wrong accusation. He had that plan earlier, yes. But when he found out that Taehyung is Mingyu's brother, he changed the plan. He could come up with some new idea later on but using his ex roommate against his brother would be wrong and unethical. The ravenette does not really care about all this but since it concerns Taehyung, he knows that he cannot do anything to hurt him. He does not have the heart to do so. 

"I don't want to take you with me to use you, Taehyung."

"Why else would you take me with you then?"

"I'll tell you that when the time is right but for now, we have to leave." Jungkook says in a hushed tone before holding Taehyung by his upper arm and dragging him towards his car. Taehyung's protests go unheard by the other as he is too focused on looking around while putting Taehyung in the car.

"What are you doing? Leave me." Taehyung tries to get away, getting angry at what the ravenette is doing. But Jungkook is too far gone to hear him. He is so mad suddenly. He glares at the other, making him feel intimidated. "Just shut the fuck up and come with me if you don't wanna die yet." The mafia boss grits his teeth and something about that tone makes Taehyung nod his head and agree to what Jungkook is telling him to do.
