Chapter 7

Namjoon couldn't believe it.

He warned them....

Warned them to not cause any trouble.

To behave.

To try not to get caught.

They did two out of those three things already. Then again, what else is to be expected when Hoseok, Taehyung and Jin left together to buy 'take out' food without any money. Apart from them returning with food, they returned with a stole black truck.

Never has Namjoon felt so annoyed in his life.

"Woah! It's such a beauty!" Jimin squeals with jittery eyes, only adding onto Namjoon's annoyance as he glares at the three musketeers.

"What is this!" He couldn't help but yell the moment they got out the car.

They look at him with wide eyes but Taehyung stetches a smug grin, "I'm the definition of bad, it's what I do," he scoffs and hands over Yoongi the bag of Chinese food, "Now apart from being mischevious, I also got ourselves invited to a club by some local who fell for my beauty, and we are going!"

"No!" Jungkook instantly interjects with stormy eyes, "Absolutely not."

Hoseok groans loudly, "Oh come on! It would be nice to have some fun instead of training the whole time!"

Seokjin stands in front of Namjoon with determined eyes, "We weren't given the right to live a decent life for years. Let us feel how it's like to be normal for once..... We'll behave!"

Namjoon didn't want to risk it. He didn't want them to get taken or for them to get caught, but then again the whole point of this is to make a stand. In order to do just that, they need to see the world how it is now. How it's like and how it's changed.

Hmm..

A broad smirk fills his lips, oh he's going to send a message alright.

"No," He states, causing Jin's face to drop in despair, "We aren't going to behave."

Everyone snaps their gazes to him in confusion that even Taehyung couldn't read what he possibly could mean by that. Namjoon ordered everyone to get ready, including Jungkook who was complaining the whole time. Once they already ate the food, in which Seokjin informs was stolen while the worker called out a number, they took it and ran for their lives before the restaurant could call the cops. They dressed up in decent clubbing clothes and got into the truck with Jin driving, Namjoon and Yoongi beside him in the front while Hoseok and Jungkook sit in the back seat. Meanwhile Jimin and Taehyung sit on the truck, making sure to remain hidden whenever they would spot police cars but they clearly enjoyed being able to annoy passing cars.

They were about to have some fun.

_______

Jimin feels the cool breeze carees his face as he stares at the passing trees at the highway. It's been a while since he's sensed or had a moment of this type of tranquility, a nature connected tranquility. Even though being in the water does bring his mind to ease, being in this environment and feeling..... Free, feels just as amazing to him. Jimin allows his eyes to flutter close, inhaling the air and smiling slightly to the giddiness he's feeling. Even though they're going to a party and the anxiety is killing him, he feels excited to finally do something fun in his life.

Something casual without the fear of being known or caught.

Well, he hopes they won't be caught.

Jimin's laying his head on Taehyung's shoulder with the view of the street in front of them moving. The sky is a twilight color with a few twinkling stars peeking as the sun goes down. It's a beautiful sight for a picture, if only Jimin had a camera to keep this memory forever.

"Jimin," Taehyung's voice brings Jimin back from his daze as he hums back at him, still staring at the passing trees with the sun peeking through.

"Do you ever miss how life use to be back then? You know.... When things wasn't so fucked up?"

Jim slowly rises his head from Taehyung's shoulder and stare at the man that's already staring back at him, "What type of question is that?"

Taehyung shrugs with a small pout on his lips, his gaze falling to his hands, "You just seem very..... Neutral about everything around you, with this whole thing... And I can't really go into your head to know what you're thinking- It's just curiosity."

Jimin blinks at Taehyung, not knowing what to say him in his defense. Of course he misses his old life! Now he's always running and he hates it as much as everyone does. After a few moments of silence and Jimin giving more thought to it, Jimin grew the courage to answer, "Of course I do.... I just don't-.... I don't want to let myself down. I want to be free from all of this and the only way for that is for me to always comply and adapt with the environment I'm in now," He tells him, feeling the other man's burning gaze against his head, "And I know Namjoon will help us retrieve that freedom."

"How are you so sure? How do you know we will be free at the end of the day?" Taehyung's voice drops to a whisper, clearly desperate to know if he will actually have some sort of peace after this whole thing goes down.

Jimin didn't respond, only stares at the frustrated man with pity. He's been through hell, literally. Everyone is always so scared of him and easily jumps to how bad he is without getting to know him. Jimin knows Taehyung would never show this vulnerable side to any of the other boys because he's afraid to be weak, to show care and would rather stick to his role, the role of being bad.

Without thinking about it, Jimin tugs Taehyung's arm towards him and places his head on his chest, running his fingers through the other man's brunette hair. Taehyung was clearly taken back from the sudden embrace but soon melted into Jimin's arms, wrapping his arms around the other man's small waist.

This is all Taehyung needs, comfort.

A comfort only Jimin could provide for him.

"Hang in there Taehyung," Jimin murmurs against his hair, " You are closer to your freedom than you think."

After several minutes of driving, they finally arrived to a building with the big sign Pheonix in gigantic letters. There's a lot of cars but thankfully Jin eventually found a parking lot and they all exit the vehicle and approach the club. Jimin could feel his palms sweet in nerves as he looks around his surroundings to see many humans laughing and drunk already as they all head to the doors of the building. Without a problem they entered inside after flashing their fake ID's and were met with a large crow of people, dancing right to the upbeat music.

"In my mind, in my head, this is where we all came from....."

Jimin didn't recognize this type of music but everyone is dancing like crazy, well mostly jumping around with the attempt to dance.

"Let's get fucked boys!" Hoseok hollers and that's when everyone escaped to different directions meanwhile Jimin remains frozen in his spot, not knowing exactly what the hell to do. So, he followed Jungkook to one of the booths, sensing Jungkook's clear annoyance as he glares at everyone that passes the table.

Jimin felt insanely awkward being in this new environment, not knowing exactly what to do besides sitting and watching. He never drank alcohol his entire life, never broke a dance step or done any type of drugs. He feels like an amateur just sitting there.

"Why don't you go join them?" Jungkook asks him, clearly still irritated he was dragged here in the first place.

Jimin's eyes fall to Hoseok and Taehyung dancing on the dance floor while Namjoon and Jin are at the bar, drinking away their problems. Yoongi is with a group of people huddled to the corner, smoke coming out from the center which can only explain why this place also smells like hookah.

"I could ask you the same thing," He states and turns his head to Jungkook to see the other man is already giving Jimin a hard stare. Jimin could feel himself grow uncomfortable to the way Jungkook's grey eyes darken, making him fight a squirm. A small snicker escapes Jungkook's lips, "I'm an angel, Jimin. Does it make sense for me to get messed up and fall for the temptation of possibly doing bad things."

"Like what?" Jimin could help but snort, "Drink? Dance? Actually have fun for once?"

"I have a job to protect people," His eyes moves from Jimin and to the rest of the people in the place, "I can't falter from the job. I can't have fun knowing there's a fallen angel here too."

To this Jimin grew a hint of irritation to the cold way Jungkook mentioned Taehyung, but he could see why Jungkook would react the way he is now.

That doesn't mean he can't enjoy himself.

Jimin stares at his hands, a wide smirk spreading his lips, "Can you dance?"

Confusion spread Jungkook's features and the siren only remains to smirk as he grabs Jungkook's wrist and drags him off the booth, obviously protesting after the small man. Once they were at the center, crowded around a bunch of people, Jungkook had no way to escape this now.

"I-I can't dance... Jimin please don't make me do this," Jungkook whines while moving his wide eyes around the sweaty people around him.

"I can't dance either, let's just go with the music," He edges on with a wide smile as he slowly began to move his feet with the new song that came up, "You aren't doing anything bad, you're just dancing Jungkook."

Jimin could visibly see Jungkook hesitate to the suggestion but soon enough he moves his feet to the beat, earning an award winning smile from Jimin.

"Can we go back, this is the moment. Tonight is the night, we'll fight till it's over. So we put our hands up like the ceiling can't hold us. Like the ceiling can't hold us..."

Towards the bridge, Jimin and Jungkook lost themselves completely to the music as they dance their hearts away. Their dancing grew attention from people around them that they all stepped back and began to cheer for the duo, staring in awe while they dance in sync to the music. They didn't know how it happened but it did, they were in complete sync with each other as if they practiced a dance routine to this song before when in reality this is their first time dancing.

Suddenly out of no where Hoseok and Taehyung joined the duo, moving their feet to sync with theirs while moving their heads senselessly to the music. The crowd of people screamed to the sudden performance they were getting and cheered once the music ended and in transition to another song. To this song everyone crowded back together and danced to it instantly.

"Everyday I'm shuffling."

The song still didn't stop the four immortals from dancing. Jimin doesn't recall feeling this type of happiness in such a long time. This type of happiness that made him feel bubbly and light, almost like he's flyin-

"Taehyung! Jungkook! What are you doing?!"

Jimin stops his dancing to watch Hoseok glittering eyes and wide smile move to the stage in front of the crowd. Jimin watches in amusement as the duo dances to the music on the stage. A wide smile breaks Jimin's lips as he hollers to them shuffling on the stage. Really well actually. That is until the music began to grow louder with the female's voice echoing.

Right when the dance break came, Taehyung runs to the crowd and flungs himself to them. At first Jimin thought this man was literally going to die if no one actually caught him, but soon fell into a fit of laughter once the crowd actually held Taehyung in the air, with him throwing kisses at random strangers with a broad smile on his face. Jimin could see Jungkook laughing from the stage as he continues to dance. Out of no where, Jin appeared beside him with a beer bottle in hand as he also joins Jungkook, both of them enjoying themselves.

Jimin feels alive.

Far from alive.

He feels content with himself to see the young angel happy and having fun instead of being a bore.

But suddenly a hand on Jimin's shoulder catches his attention and he could feel himself being aggressively yanked backwards. He didn't have time to yell for Hoseok beside him because he was forcefully dragged from the crowd and taken through a door and aggressively pinned against a wall.

A strange, drunken stranger is in front of him, staring at him with a daze smile on his face, "You are a very pretty man," The older man slurs, his tone sending an uncomfortable sensation in Jimin's stomach as he feels the other man's grip tightens around his forearms.

Jimin shoves the mortal back, feeling himself grow panic as the other man continues to look at him with lustful eyes. They're currently in an empty bathroom, the music still blaring loudly in the background.

Even if he screamed for help, no one would listen.

If Jimin does anything out of the ordinary then he's screwed.

He's already screwed.
