Chapter 69
"How did you even manage to find all this equipment? Have you lost your mind?" After some seconds of silence in which you had fallen after his sudden appearance, you managed to speak to him as your arms had now grabbed hold of him, for you could balance yourself better like that.
"I have a tendency to keep props from movies I have played as you know and these are from an action movie. They were expensive but as you can see, totally worth it. As for your second question, I believe you know the answer to that well enough." Jimin smiled a bit as he spoke then tapped you with his hand lightly at the side of your thigh, making you look down on yourself then meet his eyes again.
"Wrap yourself around me well, we need to take off." He explained and you displayed the confusion and momentary fear that took over you, at the realization that just like he came to you, you had to hang on that cable along with him in order to get back, to the other side.
"Hold up, hold up! What if we fall. Together we are heavier." You argued and he just gave you an apology before grabbing your thighs and lifting you up, giving you no other choice but to wrap your legs around his waistline and your arms around his neck.
"This is seriously indecent!" You uttered as you made your hold around his neck tighter, bothered by his actions but also understanding of the fact that this was not the time for you to be starting conversations and complains when in that situation.
"You are my hero. Thank you for saving me. I deeply appreciate it." You heard Jimin saying full-on sarcastic as those were words he was expecting from you to say, then he pressed the button he had on his chest, making your eyes grow slightly wide as his hand unintentionally brushed against your chest.
"Hey! Watch your hands!" You flinched a bit as you yelled at him, only to hold your breath immediately after for he gave himself a push with his legs and you took off in the air, the triangle thing accelerating, pulling you back all the way to the tall wall and past it until his back hit the tree from which he had taken leave from.
The sight sure looked like it had come straight out of a movie, and so thought Jungkook that witnessed it in astonishment from the ground.
"The heck? Did she just got kidnapped before my eyes?!" He murmured to himself before taking off as quickly as he could to reach to the main gate and come around and find you, for there was no other way to pass on the other side of that wall.
Meanwhile, Jimin had managed to drop you on the ground on your two feet and you had literally stepped away from him, only to give him a glare before placing your arms above your chest, for he had pressed that button on his chest again and had brushed passed your chest again.
"Don't look at me like that. It was obviously not done on purpose!" He defended himself for he had no intention of touching you in any inappropriate place, but he needed to press that button for the gear to function.
"You are lucky that this is not the time to fight for I assure you, I am not that certain of your words." You admitted and he almost looked offended by your statement as he was pulling on the cables and pressing on a controller that unstuck the hitch that he had thrown on the other side of the wall, to reach you and then pressed another button to retrieve the whole cable back, leaving no trace behind of his actions.
"You are Jimin, aren't you?" After observing his fast and precise actions, which left you feeling like he was experienced in these actions, you couldn't help but doubt him momentarily and utter those words.
"Yes, miss ungrateful. That instead of saying thank you to an injured person that left the house and sped up to reach and save you from trouble, you accuse them!" He replied with a hint of bitterness in his voice and a sense of pettiness that reassured you that it was indeed him.
"I am sorry okay! I didn't mean to. Plus I never really asked you to come. All I wanted was for you to reach Jungkook." You reasoned, establishing the fact that objectively you didn't owe him anything.
"Oh is that so. Come let me get you back to where you were stuck then and wait for Jungkook to come to save you instead." He signalled towards the building, as he raised his eyebrow, keeping eye contact with you enough to make you realize that he was not joking.
"Thank you. I appreciate the fact that you came to help me." You pressed your lips in a thin line as you let him hear what he most likely wanted to hear and then you witnessed the corner of his lips tagging upwards in satisfaction.
"Now that's a good girl. Come let's get out of here." He proceeded to place all the equipment in a bag that he had left by the tree and then placed it over his shoulders before he started walking away towards the road and the car which you could see at a close distance from where you were.
You tried following close behind him but instead, you found yourself slipping and almost falling flat on your face, if it wasn't for your quick reflexes to grab on his arm and his to instantly take hold of your arm back, bringing your fall to a mid-air halt.
"Just what are you doing?" He questioned you slightly annoyed as he pulled you back in your feet and you slapped his arm lightly before pointing at your feet and at the fact that you had heels on. And sure those shoes weren't the best to be walking around grounds with leaves and vegetation.
"Hold onto me. It wouldn't be stupid if you were to break a led walking while you were hanging from the second floor for more than thirty minutes. If you are to get injured you should at least have a decent story to tell." Jimin joked with a smile on his lips as he gave you his arm to hold and you scoffed at him before taking it and together slowly you made it to the vehicle which you later recognized as Jin's instead of the van he usually uses around.
"Now that I remembered...does your Psychiatrist has any connections with the entertainment world?" The words escaped your lips as soon as he opened the door of the car and place the bag with the equipment inside, recalling that Jin's girlfriend was basically in this party, inside that building
"Jiya? She is famous in her field. Who knows if she has any other celebrity as her patient besides me. She never speaks of her clients. Why are you asking though?" He turned around to meet your eyes with a hint of curiosity and you just waved your hand with a smile on your lips before lying to him.
"Nothing, it was just a random thought. " Jimin kept his eye contact with you as your reply had made him slightly suspicious but you had decided to not mention anything of Jin's girlfriend for his response did make sense and so far it's not that you had caught her doing anything outrageous. All she did was present to an event of someone who was at a rival company that Jimin is but as Jimin mentioned she was someone that had other clients too beside him and as thus someone from the many in there could have invited her for one personal reason or another.
"Y/N!" Jungkook's voice was what brought his suspicious gaze to break, as he hurried to turn around and put his mask on, while you shot your head towards the direction of his voice, only to witness him jogging towards you.
"Oh shit! You better go. It would be better if we are not seen together." You urged him and Jimin told you that he will be waiting down the street.
"No no, you can go home" You argued and he legit cracked up as he opened the door of the passenger's seat and entered the vehicle. "I have no intentions of leaving you alone to get in trouble twice. Just give me a call when you finish or if you need something. I will be on stand by." He reassured you then closed the door and hopped on the driver seat, bringing the car to life and taking off, right as a breathless Jungkook reached near the car.
"What- Just what is happening?- Are you alright?" He questioned as he cut his words frequently to take in some breathes, his eyes following the car that drove off before they returned on you.
"Thankfully I am okay. I am so sorry I troubled you but now we have to hurry back so no one gets suspicious." You told him as you grabbed his arm and turned him around, dragging him down the road from which he had come.
"Wait, wait. Just who was that guy? Did you call the police to save you?" He halted his steps and faced you, utterly confused with what he had witnessed. But if he was to guess such equipment could be available only to someone from the swat team or a high-class thief.
"Police? Oh yes, police. That was..em..my boyfriend. Yes, my boyfriend. He is in the special forces and apparently he was tracking my phone so he came to help. He gets a bit jealous from time to time but it can prove helpful I guess." You uttered a bunch of lies at him before leaving a small giggle to escape your lips, which you cut it off soon for it felt awkward even to you.
"Oh...I never thought to ask if you had a boyfriend. I apologise. I must have caused you trouble. If you want I am willing to talk to him and fix any possible misunderstanding." Jungkook offered, looking sincerely worried of the fact that he could have ruined something for you, unintentionally while involving you in his personal matters just because he was in need of help.
"There will be no need for such, I assure you but thank you for being considerate." You bowed your head to him slightly before taking off again and him following right beside you, in silence, until you reached the main gate again and you took hold of his arm, making him stop in place and turn to face you.
"Before we get back in there...I have to tell you something important." You gazed around before speaking those words, concluding that this place, outside of that property was the right place to let him know that you had obtained the information that could solve his issue.
"I am listening."
"I found out why your Ceo's daughter is so obsessed with you." Your words had him visibly and instantly focused on you, for he had been waiting for so long for someone to give him something and you had apparently managed to do so, in just a night.
"There's a reason? Besides that she likes me?" He questioned for all this time he had logically thought that she was in love with him in a crazy way just because he was good looking, for as far as he recalls he had not done any possibly flattering gesture towards her ever.
"She doesn't like you. I can't tell you much because it wouldn't be right towards her privacy, but please try to keep an open mind with her from now on. Things aren't how they look. She is not really obsessed with you, she is being forced to." You uttered, calculating your words the best you could so you would keep the things that you deemed too private for yourself and let him be aware of what could help him to improve his situation and uncover further on his own, whatever it was that was going down.
"Forced to? By whom? She is literally the daughter of the CEO. Who would dare impose anyth-" Jungkook halted his own tongue as something instantly crossed his thoughts and after his gaze travelled around once more, he took a step closer and leaned forward towards you, before whispering to you the name that he had thought of.
"Don't tell me it's her mother." His words got you by surprise for you weren't expecting him to guess it so simple but you nodded your head positively nonetheless and witnessed him leaving a long sigh escaping his lips as he stepped back again.
"That woman must have done something again and now is using her daughter to cover up. Aish why didn't I think of this sooner." He left his hand pass through his hair, visibly frustrated while you just thought that that woman apparently had a reputation in their company for getting involved with things she shouldn't.
"Oh well, no matter the case, now it's up to you. And since she doesn't really like you, I believe it is solvable. Let's go back inside now and enjoy the rest of our night without worries. I am not leaving without having some of that free food." You decided to make the situation comical as you started walking away again, hiding from him the fact that the reason you wanted to return there, was not the food or any possible fun but it was Jin's girlfriend who despite having the benefit of the doubt, tonight she had become someone you would like to look into further.
