chapter 16
¤Lets talk about our... Experiments¤
A few knocks on the door alerted Tae and Joon. They were previously having a glaring competition because Tae wanted to go out and Namjoon wanted to stay in and sleep.
Namjoon closed his laptop and went to the door thinking Jungkook forgot to tell him something or weird room service his company ordered.
"Long time no see Joonie" the dark haired man said a few inches shorter than Namjoon.
Tae peeled around the taller to see A smaller elegant man smiling as if he had won the lottery.
"Should have been longer" Namjoon remarked.
"Is that anyway to speak to an elder colleague? Joonie let's put the past aside and talk" he said looking around in the dim hotel room at Namjoon's Creature.
Namjoon noticed what he was looking at and used his body to block the door.
"Who is it?" Tae asked feeling the tension making him feel uncomfortable. He wanted Joon to shut the door and then go back to arguing about what they would do this evening.
"I'm Min Yoongi a friend of Joonie's" he grinned at the sweet face of the creature. Not that it had a particularly pretty face, it was rather scarred. But the innocence made it look sweet.
"Oh" Taehyung mumbled remembering that Namjoon had been on a call with Jungkook talking about a Min. Was it him, he asked himself.
"Don't talk to him" Namjoon said "what do you really want?"
"Lets talk about our... Experiments" a wicked grin spread across his face.
"Let's not and yours isn't here" Namjoon sternly said.
"Jimin here, now" Yoongi snapped his fingers and only a few moments later a boy with blonde hair appeared, as predicted slightly shorter.
"Now it would be rude to refuse an old friend"
"You're not my friend" But regardless Namjoon allowed the pair to enter the hotel room.
The 2nd creature seemed perfectly at ease whereas Tae looked like he was about to run, cry, or pass out.
The two sat on one of the double beds facing the one that Namjoon had been using previously with his laptop closed luckily.
He looked at Tae and patted the seat next to him.
Tae eventually was seated with everyone. His hip and thigh pressed against Namjoon's. Even though his creator was scary and mean these people scared him more.
"This is Jimin as you know" Yoongi introduced the boy who nodded "and as you already know I'm Yoongi"
Namjoon crossed his arms not wanting to sound friendly. Taehyung smiled politely "I'm Kim Taehyung" he said proudly.
Yoongi's smirk appeared and grew "you named it after you, kind of desperate are you?"
"His name is Taehyung not 'it'. If you only came here to spit insults get out" Namjoon said trying to keep his cool.
"Just going to point out you suck at sewing. I can fix that sometime if you want" Yoongi said pointing at the scar on Taehyung's forehead.
Tae touched it lightly casting his eyes downward.
"And I see that Jimin can't really be alive without human made parts. Maybe I can fix that sometime if you want" Namjoon returned.
Yoongi held his hands up in mock surrender "he seems very self aware"
"Yeah" Namjoon grumbled wanting this conversation to be over.
"Jimin is as well. I just have him trained better than Tae" Namjoon rolled his eyes at Yoongi's obvious ploy to get him angered. "Isn't that right Jimin"
"Yes, sir" Jimin replied.
"You can talk to them if you want"
Jimin nodded, but didn't seem as if he was going to.
"So Joonie still haven't gotten over it huh?" Yoongi sighed a little disappointed.
"Who would have gotten over it? You're a truly evil person, Min" Namjoon said.
"Geez still acting like a kicked puppy"
"Get the fuck out" Namjoon said keeping an emotionless gaze.
"This wasn't as fun as I wanted it to be" Yoongi pulled Jimin with him to the door and left.
"That was weird" Tae said going back to his chair.
"Let's go to that park you wanted to see"
Namjoon wanted some fresh air without Tae bothering him.
They walked under the arch that was telling them that they were at a city park. It was a lively green with trees and bushes dotting the area.
"I'm going to the swing" Taehyung said walking over to it. At least no one was really here at 7 in the evening. The blue paint of the swing set peeling revealing several colors previous.
He sat on a bench looking across the park over to the small pond. It wasn't very clean, but it wasn't meant for swimming either.
Actually seeing Min brought back all of the feelings of hatred back. Min had been one of his most trusted friends. He knew more about him and his past than his own parents.
And he had traded him and their friendship for a stupid whim and a big paycheck. The transformation didn't happen that fast. Namjoon just picked up several aspects of his personality changing and Yoongi becoming less remorseful. He was using Namjoon for his work to give it away to another company.
He looked back to see Tae giggling as he was going to high that the chain was going slack for a couple seconds.
He stuffed his hands in his pockets as he wondered over to Taehyung.
"Having fun?" he asked to get his mind to show less hate.
"Yeah" Tae said putting his feet down to stop swinging.
"Let's walk across the bridge" Tae said grabbing Namjoon's arm and dragging him away from the park entrance.
As Namjoon caught up in pace Tae linked his arm with Joon's.
They crossed the stone bridge to the other side of the park that was full of various activities.
"Let's go here" Tae said and they started walking towards a picnic table.
Namjoon sat down and Taehyung sat beside him re-linking their arms and leaning in a little towards his creator. Life giver.
"Who was that?" Tae asked sensing Namjoon's tension.
"Min. An old peer"
"And?"
"He is a bad person"
"Okay" Tae said leaving it at that.
"Thank you for taking me here" he piped up smiling at Namjoon thankful that he wasn't trapped in the hotel room on his first day in Europe.
Namjoon tilted his head slightly looking at the younger just leaving it at silence. He liked it better when Tae would just talk and he could just listen. Even though he knew everything Tae would say because he had raised him these past few months.
"Would you like me better if I acted like Jimin?" Tae asked.
"No" Namjoon replied, he didn't want a yes man.
"But you always tell me what to do then get mad when I don't. Jimin is good at listening and Yoongi was happy. Would you be happier if I listened?"
"Jimin can't really think for himself, Yoongi has him brainwashed in a way. I don't think that is right" Namjoon mumbled.
"But would you be happier?" Tae said quietly.
"No. I like you the way I made you"
"Thank you" Tae said resting his head on Namjoon's shoulder. His Creator was good.
