it was the next day.

the demons had shaken off the shock from taehyung's outburst and decided to let them go. however, not without drilling the deal they'd made into their heads.

they made it very clear that if the angels didn't fullfill their end of the deal that bad things would happen. they never specified what, though.

all that being said, it was now a new day.

however, our two angels still couldn't shake the happenings of the previous night.

the two had extreme bags under their eyes from the lack of sleep they'd gotten as they trudged around the school building like zombies.

it was currently lunch time and they sat alone in the school courtyard.

"so..." jimin trailed off but taehyung knew the words that were dancing on his tongue.

"what the fuck are we gonna do?" taehyung finished.

"i thi- wait, did you just curse?" jimin asked, shocked to here any form of vulgarity leave his best friend's mouth.

taehyung thought for a second.

wait... oh yeah, i did.

jimin picked back up his original thought, "whatever, we'll talk about that later. as i was saying, i honestly think we should go back."

"what?! jimin, jeongguk literally almost killed you with his own two hands last night! he was literally choking you!" taehyung protested in anger, pointing at the bruises on jimin's neck that were once covered with makeup but the concealer had partially worn off.

"yeah but we don't know what they're capable of or what they have access to in their world. other than the very surface of their personalities, we know nothing about them. first there's yoongi. he's so quiet but also smug. we know literally nothing about him other than his name, age and race. then there's jeongguk who could literally kill with his bare hands and feel no remorse. we've already seen the states he's left the people who crossed him in. we've seen him knock people out, we've seen him with blood dripping from his hands. along with that, he said it himself that we haven't even seen the half of what he can do. lastly, hoseok. have you not seen him?! the way he commands kangdae despite being so much younger and smaller than him. did you not hear when he said that his dad owned a ton of clubs? did you not see how huge his mansion is? did you not hear when he said that he's way more important in the underworld than we are here? we have no idea what kind of status he's on but, by the looks of things, it's a very high one. i do not want to get on his bad side and see him angry like that ever again. who knows what the fuck he's capable of. on top of all that, it's not like you could just use your powers on them all the time to keep them at bay because your magic causes too much of a scene and draws hella attention. if we get caught consorting with demons in any way then we're so dead. we easily made it to the underworld, so what's stopping them from making it here to heaven just as simply? it's too risky to not do what they want, tae. the best option us to give them what they're asking for. besides, they didn't say they'd hurt us or anything if we went. they only said they'd get to take slight advantage of us. however, at the same time, it's true that we went to the underworld for adventure in the very first place and they can give us just that. it's not too bad once you think about it. we were perfectly safe with them before, right? the only reason they were a threat to us last night is because we got on their bad side. if we don't cross them, everything will be fine." jimin explained, clearly worried.

the more taehyung thought it over, the more it made sense, though he hated to admit it.

"i guess... when you put it like that, it sounds somewhat logical." taehyung slowly and hesitantly agreed.

"very." jimin added.

"i mean, i guess they did tell us that bad things would happen if we didn't comply with the agreement..." taehyung muttered.

"exactly." jimin nodded.

"okay. we'll go." taehyung said, finally.

"so it's settled... we go back on saturday?" jimin asked for confirmation.

"yeah..." taehyung said.

"we go back."

meanwhile, in the underworld...

our three demons were sitting at the back of their school building, skipping their class so that they could dedicate that time to talking about their final plan of action.

"so... we literally met angels." hoseok states.

"no shit, sherlock hobs." jeongguk rolled his eyes.

"well i'm sorry for being shocked that we met actually forbidden beings on multiple occasions with literally no idea until last night." hoseok replied, the sarcasm clear in his tone.

"guys, stop bickering, this is serious. we met real angels yesterday, this isn't just an everyday occurance. we need to talk about this. what're we gonna do with this information?" yoongi interrupted, posing the real burning question.

"well, we've already ordered them to come back. what more can we do? it's not like we could really force them to stay last night after the stunt the quiet one pulled." jeongguk pointed out.

"that's not what i mean, i-" yoongi was interrupted by hoseok who looked like he was in deep contemplation.

"he means what's our actual plan of action. as in, what are we really planning to do with them? are we just going to have fun with them? are we gonna turn them in? what's the goal here?" hoseok elaborated for yoongi, reading his mind as usual.

"exactly." yoongi confirmed.

"i mean, i don't know about you two, but i don't really wanna turn 'em in. think about it, we just met two real angels and, as long as they show up on saturday, they'll pretty much be in the palm of our hands. why would you pass up the opportunity to mess around with them a bit? and let's be real here, when have we ever done something good? why would we do the right thing by giving them up when they could be so fun for us." jeongguk stated, having a point.

"i get what you mean." hoseok said and yoongi nodded with a hum.

the latter then spoke up, "i say we don't snitch on them and keep them coming back here but just stay weary of them. you saw what taehyung can do and i'm sure jimin has his own magical prowess too. sure, we can play with them but don't push them too far because i'm not about to lose a fight to a little pussy angel."

"agreed." jeongguk nodded.

"are you gonna tell him?" hoseok suddenly spoke up.

"huh?" jeongguk hummed, eyebrow quirking ever so slightly.

"are you gonna tell taehyung that you're like him?" hoseok cleared up.

"i'm not like him and he's not like me either. just because we're both mixed, it doesn't mean we're similar in any other way. taehyung irks me. he confuses me and he makes me... angry. we know nothing about him. way less than we thought. now that we know he was lying about being a demon, it's evident that he could be hiding so much more. the same goes for jimin too but taehyung is just... he's different. i'm gonna keep my eye on him especially. and to answer your question, no, i'm not gonna tell him i'm mixed." jeongguk explained.

"while i do agree that our eyes should be on taehyung a bit more often than jimin, i slightly disagree with the decision you're making. i kinda think you should tell him." yoongi voiced.

"why the fuck would i do that? what's in it for me? in fact, what's in it for either of us? nothing good would come out of it so i might as well leave that door closed like i always have." jeongguk argued.

hoseok jumped in, "think about it. you've never met another demon who's mixed. angels are the only other species out there who are similar to us and you just met one who has that in common with you. i think it'd be good for you to finally meet and talk with someone that you can relate to."

jeongguk sighed, "i'm not fucking telling him. at least, not now. if he grows on me, i will. however, that's highly unlikely."

"alright man." hoseok put his hands up defensively.

"so it's settled, we don't rat them out and we take advantage of the situation?" yoongi asked, waiting for the other two to agree.

they both nodded and jeongguk smirked slightly.

"this should be fun."
