"So have you told him?" Yoongi asked, looking far away.

Jungkook sighed, puffing on a cigarette as he stared at the vast land surrounding his hideout.

The two of them were sitting on a bench made of rattan, situated in front of the ravenette's house.

The weather was good with no signs of possible rain or storm, a perfect day to stay outside and do nothing.

In their case, they were out for a smoke, not really to appreciate the weather and the beauty of the surroundings.

"I did." Jungkook answered, exhaling the smoke through his mouth.

Yoongi nodded his head. "So?" He waited for the continuation.

The ravenette shrugged his shoulders. "He said he would stay."

Yoongi smirked. "Woah. I actually expected that." He shakes his head, puffing his own cigarette.

"Why is that?" Jungkook turned to look at the older with his brow arched up.

"Well you're both dumb, so it's easy to guess." Yoongi said, smirking at the ravenette who rolled his eyes.

"Shut up." Jungkook turned his attention back on the horizon.

There was a calming silence that enveloped them for a while, when Yoongi started to speak once more.

"You're okay with that?" Yoongi asked.

"Okay with what?" Jungkook asked back, not following the older's train of thoughts.

"Are you okay with him staying? Technically, you'll both live in the house until you turn into ashes, or maybe until both of you get tired of each other. Are you okay with that?" Yoongi asked, looking at the ravenette's reaction.

Jungkook gazed at him as if he had grown horns on his head. He dropped his cigarette on the ground, stomping on it to put out the fire.

"I thought you already know the answer for that?" He smirked.

Yoongi smugly stared at him. "Of course, I already know the answer. I was just testing whether you're going to think of another lame excuse... you know, you're usual 'money' kind of excuse." He smirked back, making Jungkook huff.

"You really enjoy being a smart ass, huh?" Jungkook shakes his head.

Yoongi grinned. "I do." He stood, throwing his cigarette on the ground, doing the same like the ravenette to put out the fire. He stretched his arms up, groaning at the feeling of his tensed muscles loosening.

"Well I guess I won't be getting the payment for all my hard work." Yoongi shakes his head, acting to be disappointed.

"You kept on saying all of this is for money, but up until now my bank account is as dry as the Sahara desert." Yoongi added, smugly looking at Jungkook.

"Now that you're going to keep that doctor with you, how will I ever get my payment?" Yoongi kept on blabbering.

Jungkook chuckled, seeing the older goofily wiping the nonexistent tears in his eyes.

"I felt like I was scammed." Yoongi fake cried, making Jungkook grimace.

"Will you cut it out?" Jungkook laughed, suddenly picking a small rock on the ground, mercilessly throwing on the older who barely dodged the attack.

"Ouch! This bitch.." Yoongi ducked to get his own rock and threw it with full force.

Jungkook laughed when the older missed. "Your aim sucks." He commented, making Yoongi roll his eyes.

"Whatever." Yoongi, dusted off his hands, while Jungkook kept on laughing, seeing the older sulking.

"Damn." Jungkook huffed. "I haven't laughed like that for a long time." He uttered, looking at the sky.

"Don't get sentimental on me. I might puke." Yoongi said, making Jungkook smile.

"Seriously, hyung. I'll pay you when the right time comes." He gazed at Yoongi who just stared at him with a dumb look on his face.

"I'm really grateful to have you as my partner... as my only friend." Jungkook sincerely said, making Yoongi stop for a while.

They were silent for a moment when Yoongi murmured something that put a smile on the ravenette's face.

"You don't need to pay me. Just be happy with him. That's more than enough payment for all the troubles you gave me."

Jungkook felt warm, hearing those words. "I can't believe you actually have a heart." He uttered.

Yoongi groaned, shaking his body to show his fake disgust.

"This is grossing me out."

Jungkook laughed, picking another stone and landing it on Yoongi.

They were bickering with one another when the front door opened, revealing Taehyung with a smile on his face.

"Are you seriously playing right now?" Taehyung asked, making the two grown up men stop.

Yoongi cleared his throat, discreetly dropping the stones on the ground while Jungkook smiled sheepishly at the doctor.

"Come inside. Lunch is ready." Taehyung announced.

Jungkook nodded his head. "We'll be there in a bit." He answered.

Taehyung smiled, getting back inside the house.

"I'll be going." Yoongi said, making Jungkook stop.

"No. Have lunch with us. Taehyung prepared food for you." Jungkook informed.

"Me? Why?" Yoongi asked with his brow arched up.

Jungkook scratched the back of his head. "He said he wants to talk to you about something."

Yoongi furrowed his brows. "Oh, so that's why you ask me to come here." He said, slapping Jungkook's back.

"What about?" He questioned.

Jungkook just shrugged his shoulders as the two of them made their way inside the house.

"Is this your way of bribing me?" Yoongi asked, accepting the plate handed by the doctor.

Taehyung stopped, his eyes immediately darted on the ravenette who just shrugged his shoulders.

"I heard you want to talk to me about something?" Yoongi questioned, making Taehyung smile.

"Actually.." He started, clasping his hands together.

"I was thinking if you could.. help me know the situation of my parents abroad?" Taehyung shyly looked at the older.

Yoongi sighed. "I knew the two of you are really making my life miserable." He joked, making Taehyung grin.

"Please... hyung?" He uttered which made Yoongi roll his eyes.

"Don't act cute on me. That won't work. Only Jungkook will fall for that." Yoongi said, earning a glare from the ravenette.

"Come on, hyung. I'll make sure to pay you when the right time comes." Taehyung pleaded.

"Oh God. You're even saying the same things now." He shakes his head, finding the two to be utterly ridiculous.

"Please?" Taehyung batted his eyes cutely.

Yoongi sighed in defeat. "Fine. I'll do what I can."

"Yes! Thank you." Taehyung grinned.

"So, are we good now? Can we finally eat in peace?" Yoongi said, aiming to take a spoonful of rice when Taehyung spoke.

"Actually.. there's one more." He said, making Yoongi groan.

"What again?" Yoongi asked.

Taehyung grinned, whispering his request to the older who just rolled his eyes.

"Fine."
