Chapter 11
"We're here." Taehyung spoke as the white van stopped in front of an expensive looking building. Jungkook's eyes grew wide as soon as he saw the impressive building in front of him and he immediately jerked his head towards the blonde next to him. "This is your fucking house?" The brunette asked, disbelief clearly lacing his voice. The building they were standing in front of was indeed in the same area that Jungkook's own apartment was situated. However the apartments in this building were way more expensive than Jungkook's apartment. There was just no way the brunette would ever be able to afford something as expensive as this.
"This is one of them yes. I haven't been here in almost five years though." Taehyung spoke while quickly looking the other way, doing his absolute best to avoid any eye contact with Jungkook. The brunette raised both his eyebrows but decided not to pay attention as to why Taehyung hadn't been here in forever. It seemed like quite the touchy subject and Jungkook wasn't one to stick his nose were it doesn't belong, unless it got him any money of course.
"One of them? You mean you got more than one of these?" Jungkook then spoke while his mouth hung slightly open, a shocked look visible on his face. Taehyung nodded softly before he turned his head towards Jungkook once more. "Yeah I got three apartments." The male admitted, his eyes filled with an unreadable emotion. Jungkook immediately got captured by the male's mesmerising orbs and the two of them looked at each other as if the others weren't even present. Taehyung's eyes always seemed to hide so much secrets and eventhough none of them were any of Jungkook's concern somehow the male wanted to know every single one of them. He wanted to unravel the mystery that was Kim Taehyung.
It was as clear as crystal to Jungkook that there was way more to Taehyung than the blonde lead on. Ever since he had first met the whole team Jungkook had immediately picked out Taehyung as the mysterious secret keeper of them all. His face hid so many emotions and while his eyes did betray the older sometimes, they still managed to keep every single secret Taehyung possesed hidden. This man was a whole mystery itself and Jungkook would love nothing more than to peel of his layers one by one, revealing everything there was to know about him.
"Let's go. We got no time to lose." Namjoon spoke from the frontseat and before Jungkook realised it Taehyung broke off their eye contact and stepped out of the car before slipping his arms under Jungkook's body once more, carrying the younger out of the car as if he weighted nothing. Jungkook's blush from before immediately returned and began to decorate his cheeks once more. Ohh how he cursed his damn body for being so weak now. He hated that Taehyung had to carry him, it made him look so dependant and weak and that was something the brunette didn't want at all. He wasn't weak and he surely didn't want to look like he was.
"You sure it's safe here Taehyung? Johhny doesn't know about this apartment?" Hoseok then asked as the red haired male quickly got some important stuff out of the van before following Taehyung inside the big expensive looking skyscraper. "Positive. I've never take him here before and it's registered under a different name than my own. No way he can know about this place." The blonde reassured his friend and inmediately Hoseok let go of a breath he had been holding all this time. "Ohh thank the gods." The male spoke, relief clearly lacing his voice. An overall tired look could be spotted on Hoseok's face and it was as clear as crystal that the male wasn't up for another big activity this night. Robbing that damn bank hand been exhausting enough already.
Taehyung smiled slightly upon hearing his friend's response, however as soon as the smile appeared it disappeared again and Jungkook raised both his eyebrows upon noticing the scene in front of him. To Jungkook Taehyung was a closed book full of secret he still needed to unravel. The male knew everything about him yet refuses to tell anything about himself. Apart from his name and appearance Jungkook literally knew nothing about the blonde who was carrying him and while Taehyung would surely like to keep it that way there was no way Jungkook would let that happen. His curious ass would never let this male go until he knew everything that there was to know about him.
It didn't take long before the whole group was standing inside a big and luxurious elevator. "We need to go to the 43th floor." Taehyung announched and Jimin immediately began to press that exact button before repeatingly pressing the close doors button. "Aye aye captain." The pink haired male spoke, a way too happy tone lacing his voice. No one reacted after that. All of them had tired looks on their faces and while it was still too early to let their guard down deep down all of them wanted nothing more than to just lay down and fall into a deep sleep. Sure, the whole team was trained for stuff like this but today had heen an eventfull day and their bodies had grown tired, which was only normal.
"Man I'd love to fall face first into a pillow now." Yoongi spoke as a big yawn left his mouth. The male looked overal tired and his normally messy locks now looked even more tangled up than usual. Jimin was quick to jump towards his boyfriend and wrap both his arms around his torso. "Me too!" The pink haired male chirped happily, not sounding the least bit tired. Yoongi smiled and quickly pressed a kiss against the slighlty shorter male's temple before nuzzeling his face in the crook of his neck. Jungkook looked at the whole exchange between those two with wide eyes. He knew those two had a thing going on but he didn't know it was this serious.
It didn't take long for the elevator to reach its destinated floor and before Jungkook knew it Taehyung was carrying him out of the elevator and into a big apartment. Unlike Jungkook's apartment, where there were 3 people living on the same floor, this building rented out whole damn floors and thus the elevator opened up to reveal only a small hallways which would lead directly to the rest of the floor.
The apartment Taehyung had carried him in could easily be decribed with one word: luxurious. Windows were covering almost all of the outside walls and shining marble floors were making the whole apartment look even more luxurious than it already was. A big brand clean black kitchen could be found on the right side of the apartment and a big livingroom with a huge couch on the left side. "I'll put you down on the couch okay?" Taehyung then softly spoke, his deep voice sending shivers down Jungkook's spine. Immediately the hacker nodded softly while a small smile started to appear on his face. Ohh how Jungkook couldn't wait to finally be released from the older's arms, at least he wouldn't look as hopeless as he did now. Of course he was thankfull for Taehyung actually being kind enough to carry Jungkook even though he probably was tired as well the hacker somehow liked being independant. He had been so for most of his life and it had grown to be a part of who Jungkook was.
Taehyung was quick to make his way towards the left side of the big luxurious aparment and as soon as he was standing in front of the black couch he softly dropped Jungkook down before sitting down next to him. The others were quick to follow as well and before the hacker even realised it all of the members were sitting around the coffeetable, waiting for someone to start talking.
"So I know we are all tired right now but let's hold on a little longer, okay? We really need to come up with a plan to get that chip back." Namjoon decided to speak, his voice deep and serious. Jungkook immediately focussed his gaze at the older male and looked at him with a serious expression crossing his features. It didn't matter that he still wasn't feeling well, he couldn't let his guard down with these guys. He had already heard Taehyung say that they still needed him for something. However Jungkook wasn't going to help them that easily anymore. He had gotten hurt once and he definitely wasn't up for a second round. His face was filled with bruises and wounds and his whole body had become so weak that he couldn't even stand on his own damn legs. This was exactly the reason why the brunette didn't do physical jobs, to prevent shit like this.
"I think right now the best option we have is tracking down Johnny's location and pray for heaven's sake that he still has that chip in his possesion." Jin then spoke, a tired tone lacing his voice. Everyone was completely exhausted after their adventure of today. They had started this afternoon with robbing a bank and after that they also had to move all their shit to a new place because their old hideout wasn't safe anymore.
"The chance that asshole still has it is very small though." Yoongi then spoke while looking at the others with a very serious look displaying itself on his face. "Think about it, if any of us would have betrayed the rest then would you keep that chip or give it to someone else? Cause I certainly would get rid of it as soon as possible." The male continued, a serious tone lacing his voice. Immediately multiple others began to nodd as well and a deep sight left Hoseok's mouth. "So basically we're screwed. That damn chip could be anywhere right now. Maybe it's not even in Seoul anymore." The red head said as he leaned his head to the side and let it rest on his boyfriend's shoulder. Taemin smiled slighty before wrapping one of his arms around the other's torso.
"I think the only logical step is to track down Johnny and try to get him to talk. I don't know about you guys but I would like some kind of explanation from that fucker." Taemin then said while an angry look began to form onto his face. They all had trusted Johnny and he had done nothing but betray their trust. Hell, he even tried to kill Jungkook and no one understood why. Sure the information on that chip was worth a lot of money but Johnny definitely wasn't the type to go through so much just to get his hands on some money. No, something more was behind his betrayal and the whole team was determined to find out what. This all just didn't make the slightest bit sense.
"And how exactly do you expect us to track him down? He knows we still have Jungkook so he's definitely going to be extra cautios and even if we manage to track him down then we still need him to tell us where that chip has gone. No way he'd willingly give us that information." Yoongi then spoke, voicing his worries. Taehyung immediately drew his eyebrows together while leaning his head on one of his hands. His older friend was right and this would be without a doubt one of the hardest tasks of the whole mission.
Unless..
"And what if we track down his boyfriend instead? Knowing Ten I'm pretty sure he isn't as cautious as Johnny is right now. I doubt he even has any clue what's going on." The blonde spoke and immediately Jimin jumped up from his place on the floor while an excited look was visible on his face. "That is a brilliant idea Tae!" The pink haired male exclaimed enthusiastically while a bright smile was visible on his face. Taehyung had known Johnny ever since the two of them were still kids. At one point they'd even be best friends and it was only normal for Taehyung to know the other's lover as well. Ten was without a doubt an amazing human being. The raven haired male was kind and sweet and overal he was really caring. However Taehyung was willing to do anything to get his hands on that chip again, even if that meant that he had to betray one of his old friends....it's not like Johnny hadn't done the same to him.
Namjoon nodded approvingly as well, seeing how using Ten against Johnny could definitely work out. The older male then turned his head towards Jungkook before the oh so familiar smirk began to form onto his face again. "I wanted to ask you how much I needed to pay you to help us but I got a beter deal for you. You help us to get that chip back and I'll make sure you won't get prosecuted." The grey haired male spoke and immediately Jungkook raised both his eyebrows while a disbelieving look began to form onto his face. "And how exactly are you planning to do that?"
Namjoon's smirk grew even wider and he immediately began to grab something from the inside of his jacket before giving it to Jungkook. The brunette hesitately took it from the older and his eyes grew wide upon noticing what Namjoon had in fact given to him. A shiny silver badge with FBI engraved in it was proudly shining above a picture of Namjoon. In bold letters 'officer Kim' was written below the picture and Jungkook's heart immediately began to thump loudly in his chest.
He was so fucked...
"No way..." the brunette softly whispered as the realisation of how deep he had gotten himself in shit began to dawn upon him. He had literally helped the fucking FBI rob a bank and now they had all the evidence they needed in order to get him locked up for the rest of his life. "Yes way." Namjoon spoke, the smirk on his face growing even wider than it had already been. An amused look could easily be spotted on the older's face and Jungkook sighed softly before locking eyes with Namjoon. "You tricked me."
"I certainly did. However would you have willingly worked together with us if you knew we were a team filled with FBI agents? I don't think so." The grey haired male spoke, a challenging look visible on his face. Jungkook shook his head softly, knowing Namjoon was damn right about that statement. If the older had said from the beginning that he was a cop then Jungkook wouldn't have even thought about helping them. Him and the police just weren't on the same wavelength seeing as he could easily be considered a cybercriminal.
"That's what I thought. Now are you willing to help us or not?" Namjoon then spoke, knowing damn well Jungkook didn't have any choice. It was either helping them or ending up behind bars. Jungkook visibly gritted his teeth but then sighed softly. He had nowhere to run and he definitely wasn't planning on going to jail. However just because he had no other choice than working together with these guys didn't mean that he wouldn't be able to demand some things as well. Taehyung himself had said multiple times himself that they needed Jungkook because of his skills and the brunette was pretty sure that they still weren't able to find anyone else who could do what he can.
"I am...however, that means as soon as this mission is over that I get to go free. Every single thing I ever did in the past will not be held against me and my record stays as clean as it is right now." Jungkook spoke, a serious tone lacing his voice. He didn't have a choice but to help these guys so he might as well make the best deal he could possibly get. The hacker scoffed slightly upon realising the irony of this whole damn situation. All these years he had been active as Hersey he always done everything to stay away from the police and now he was sitting in a room filled with them.
Namjoon nodded understandingly while that annoying smirk was still visible on his face. "Noted, anything else?" The older spoke and immediately Jungkook nodded, knowing exactly what else he wanted. "If I have to help then you gotta involve me in everything. I need to know what this whole damn mission is about in order to help you properly." Jungkook spoke in a slightly annoyed tone, not liking the idea of being forced to help this team again. From the very first time the brunette had met Namjoon he had sensed that something was just off about the male. Ohh how he wished he would have trusted his instinct back then. Now he was stuck with them until they finally would allow him to go home again.
"Fair enough, we'll tell you everything as long as you manage to keep your mouth shut and agree to take some self defense lessons. We can't have the situation from last time repeating itself." Namjoon spoke before sticking his hand out for Jungkook to take in order to close the deal between them. The brunette looked hestitately at the older's hand before leaning a bit forward and shaking it. This was without a doubt the best deal possible the brunette could get out of this all and he just hoped that the older would keep his promise. Namjoon immediately smirked upon Jungkook shaking his hand and he looked at the other with a challenging look on his face.
"It's a deal then."
