The moon switched it's kingdom and the sun started to paint its sky with shades of orange & yellow, marking the arrival of another day. But unlike other days,there was no alarm ringing in the simple yet cozy room of a particular male.

The peaceful morning was being celebrated by the butterflies dancing over colorful flowers on the other side of a purple themed bedroom...

Yes,u guessed right!

It's Kim Taehyung's space we're talking about.

The same sleeping beauty that rocked Jeon Jungkook's universe,was now squirming inside his blanket. Few more minutes and taehyung sat up in his bed,trying to open half-closed eyes. He stretched a little before getting out of the blanket and headed to the bathroom.

Taehyung was enjoying the breakfast with tannie when a notification popped up on his screen. He placed the fork on table and was checking through the screen when his eyes grew wide at something.

It was a text_ from his CEO,

𝙸'𝚕𝚕 𝚋𝚎 𝚊𝚝 𝚢𝚘𝚞𝚛 𝚙𝚕𝚊𝚌𝚎 𝚒𝚗 𝚊𝚗 𝚑𝚘𝚞𝚛, 𝚕𝚎𝚝'𝚜 𝚍𝚒𝚜𝚌𝚞𝚜𝚜 𝚊𝚋𝚘𝚞𝚝 𝚝𝚑𝚎 𝚒𝚍𝚎𝚊 𝚢𝚘𝚞 𝚙𝚛𝚘𝚙𝚘𝚜𝚎𝚍 𝚕𝚊𝚜𝚝 𝚝𝚒𝚖𝚎. 𝙻𝚎𝚝 𝚖𝚎 𝚔𝚗𝚘𝚠 𝚒𝚏 𝚢𝚘𝚞'𝚛𝚎 𝚘𝚔𝚊𝚢 𝚠𝚒𝚝𝚑 𝚒𝚝.

11:05𝚊𝚖

"Damn itt! I need to clean the mess now....

Aaaaaaaah!! I just wanted to enjoy the day,now I'm stuck here with the work even on weekends,"tae stated whining before replying to his CEO. This was definitely not what he expected on the weekend.

𝚂𝚞𝚛𝚎 ,𝚜𝚒𝚛.

𝚂𝚎𝚎 𝚢𝚘𝚞 𝚒𝚗 𝚊𝚗 𝚑𝚘𝚞𝚛.

11:13𝚊𝚖

"C'mon tannie, we need to be quick!"and both father and his son got busy in cleaning after their breakfast.

Talking about jungkook,his morning was not so good. He woke up to his alarm and headed somewhere after the morning routine.

When he returned after about two hours,the leftover paperwork was awaiting for him.

The place he went for was not usual, as his clothes smelt like grease that made him to change into other suit.

Finally completing his work when he got hold of time, the clock was reading 12'. He let out a sigh before getting up from the couch and left for the appointed meeting.

He drove through not-so-busy streets of Seoul while thinking about the same question from last night_why he is so much affected by the presence of just one person around him?

He soon parked near the apartment. Keeping his thoughts aside for the time being, he got out of the luxurious black car and stepped towards the entrance door.

The bell notified someone's arrival and taehyung made his way to the door.

Just like any other time, jungkook didn't fail to make him gape mentally at the handsomeness he has....

But boy, he was unaware of the unfaltering stare_holding a flood of emotions_ was directed at him too.

Much to their dismay, tannie interrupted their utopic world and tae was the one brought out of trance.

While jungkook, he was still staring to his heart's content,searching for the nonexistent flaws in Kim Taehyung.

"Good morning,sir,"said the younger while guiding the other to his living room.

Elder followed behind,eyeing each and every detail around and appreciating how cozy and beautiful the interior was.... Walls reflecting not too bright shades of blue,purple and cream_vibing a soothing feel throughout the place.

"So, I'm here to discuss the details of your plan,"said jungkook while making himself comfortable on the couch.

"Sure sir,

Would you like to have something?"

"I'm a bit short on time,let's get straight to the point,"

And it took an hour,when jungkook left the apartment_satisfied by the youngers approach to solve the situation.

______________

The same street came into view as Mr.Jeon took an abrupt turn from the highway,heading to a familiar place. Not-so-busy streets that were once covered with dead brown leaves, were now revealing green old trees along the way.

A street that was much difficult to get noticed in the dark & dense forest,lead the only car towards a worn out place which looks quite familiar.

The said male got out of the car, practically resembling a dark silhouette as he was totally disguised in black clothing.

Soon,he entered a place that was apparently voguish and luxurious, revealing a complete different world inside the four boundaries.

Yes_its the same place where a certain well-built ravenett had meeting with the only biggest damn mafia........place none other than_the dane of DARCO.

Speaking of the evil, Darco was gulping down the red wine while thinking about the next moves for his plan... when he placed the glass on table in front_ being aware of Mr.Jeon standing few steps away from the huge leather couch.

"What an honour to have the great Jeon Jihwan at my cave,huh?"said the mafia while tapping his fingers to the rhythm of jazz music playing in the background_not bothering to look at the male standing in front.

"Stop that bullshit,

Just tell me why you're playing with a life that has nothing to do with your fvcking business ,huh?"

"Oh,just stop this nonsense jihwan! You think you can fool me this easily? I caught your drift this time.

I've every single detail of that damn child you're protecting right now,"he declared while getting on his feet and continued,

"I hope you got my message about handing over him to me,right?"the low tone of his voice depicting curiosity for the answer was testing the patience of jihwan standing there.

"you bastard!"

"I knew the young man will definitely relay my message to you,"an evil laugh escaped the perched dark lips as he turned around, walking towards the bookshelf.

"Why are you dragging that child again in the dark past,when he suffered like hell to reach this day?"

"Do I look like I care?"

"You'll remain the same filthy bastard even after ages,"jihwan shouted desperately and started to take steps away when he was stopped in his tracks by mafias last statement,

"U know what...... I've an ultimate weapon against you, man!"

Mr.jeon turned to see the same devil holding a pendrive,as the dirtiest smirk made its way on his face.

______________

Jungkook and namjoon were waiting as always in the study,talking about random project deals when Mr.jeon entered the room.

He made his way straight to the armchair behind his desk,without uttering a single word or any greetings.

"Dad,did something happen?"jungkook asked with concern.

"I'm coming from Darco's headquarter,"

"What's the matter,dad?"this time it was joon who looked up to him with a worried expression.

"He's determined to get Kim at all costs,it's gonna be much difficult than what we thought earlier,"he explained as the wrinkled forehead and fidgeting fingers of his hands depicted the state of mind he was in.

"Don't worry dad, we'll double the security status around taehyung,"jungkook tried comforting his father,to which joon nodded.

"You both should know that it's gonna be the deadly tragedy if that damn psychopath gets taehyung.

It'll really be the end of his freedom and,

eventually his life."

Both the males were unable to get the reason behind all the events and why that devil mafia is behind an innocent child, that too so desperately.

For jungkook, it was getting harder to hold in his curiosity and to just follow the orders blindly,but he was left with no choice at the moment. He had to trust his father that everything will be disclosed just at the right time.

Till then he needs to protect Kim taehyung, according to the orders

.

.

.

Or maybe as his heart was telling him to do the same.

"I've something to take care of, I'll head out first then,"joon said looking up from his cellphone screen and left the room in another second.

"Jungkookah,"jihwan called for his son who was lost in trance, certainly thinking about Kim.

"You have to trust me, son. You know I won't do anything without reason, right?"

"Of course,I trust you dad.

It's just a bit difficult,not being able to know the truth_that's all."

Jihwan nodded and smiled reassuringly at his son. After another five minutes of brief conversation, jungkook left for his work_leaving his dad alone in the study.

Confirming no one's presence around, Mr.Jeon fished out something from his pocket and held it in his thumb and forefinger... examining it from various angles.

It was the same pendrive.

He then opened the laptop placed in front of him and inserted the device,tapping some buttons to get access through the content inside.

Voices started to resonate through the room,as the video was playing on the screen.

Jihwan couldn't control the tears skipping his eyes as he saw the scene captured probably......twelve years ago?

There was definitely something from the same dark past that Jeons share with Kim Taehyung, as the male sitting on the chair lost his power to hold emotions at for good time while seeing the clip on the screen.

______________

Jungkook went to his room and took the laptop. He started working on the project right away. As always he lost track of time,being too immersed in his work.

It was around the dusk. Clouds reflecting a orange hint up above_as sun started to fade away,leaving beautiful traces to paint the sky.

A knock interrupted the youngest CEO and he finally realized being trapped in his work since last four hours.

Jungkook looked up to the door to his room,as Mr.Jeon entered with a confused expression over his face.

"What's going on, son? Why aren't you picking up my calls?"he asked not wasting another second.

Jungkook knitted his eyebrows together at the question, cz he was sure about not hearing any ringtone at all. He searched all over the room but couldn't find it.

Thinking for a while about his day and events,he got the situation.

"Oh! I left it at taehyung's place. How come I didn't notice so far?"he said more to himself,while letting out a sigh.

"Oh, I was worried as this is so unlikely of you,"the father stated while fishing both his hands into pocket.

"I'll go get it,dad. I must've missed a lot of calls,"and he took the keys and jacket to leave for kim's place, but soon haulted in his tracks.

"You wanted to tell something dad? Why were you calling me by the way?"

"It's nothing special,just go get your phone first."

Jungkook nodded and left the room after smiling at his dad on whom he has the never-faltering trust.

_

____________

Jungkook started to get irritated as this was already his fourth time ringing the doorbell. Yet...no response at all.

He pressed the bell for long seconds when the door to taehyung's place was burst open,revealing a male with annoyed expression,who was unable to stand upstraight in front of him.

"Hobi hyung?"jungkook asked surprisingly as he saw the said male boring holes through him.

"

"Hyung!

Just look at you.... You're totally wasted,"the younger exclaimed while taking hobi into the house.

As soon as he entered the living room,he was met with an unexpected yet too much irresistible sight........

Taehyung sitting on the floor with messy hairs, unbelievably cute pout adorning his handsome features and a mic that he almost lost grip on. The dim lighting with pink & purple shades added much more to his beauty_

"Taetae I'm going to sleep in the guestroom. I'm done for today,"said hobi while waving a 'bye' to younger and left both males in the living room.

"What are u doing here?"the first thing taehyung asked looking at the other while narrowing the eyes to show curiosity_but mann.....That was too much cuteness for jungkook to handle.

"You destroyed my mood jungkooksiiiiiiii........"

"I-I.....I left my cellphone here in t-the morning...Have u found it there at the couch?"

Taehyung stared at the ceiling, pretending to think hardly and a boxy smile lit up his face suddenly as he hurriedly opened the drawer next to him. He took out a mobile phone and showed it to elder,

"Are u talking about this?"

"Yeah! Thank you,"and jungkook stepped forward to take it and was planning to leave the place as quickly as possible. Just then a call caused the mobile screen to light up. Caller ID revealing '.

The smile on youngers face dropped suddenly and few tears started brimming in his eyes,

"I'm missing my mom...I too wanna talk to her for hours, I want her to worry about me when I'm late, I wanna cuddle with her ,laugh with her........

I really miss you mom,jungkooksii!"

Jungkook was surprised by the sudden confession, he felt the urge to hug the younger as tears left younger's eyes. He wanted to wipe away those tears, it was surprisingly detestable sight for him.

Jungkook,taking few steps ahead,knelt down in front of the younger and his hands_without a second thought_found their way to his face and he wiped the tears with the pad of his thumb.

Taehyung looked up to him and handed the cellphone.

"Noooo...Look at the mess here! I need to clean this now,"taehyung started whining as he noticed the state of his living room.

"You should take rest first, I don't tolerate anyone being late at my office,got it?"jungkook declared with a hint of audacity.

Well,he was trying to hide the emotions that were not in his control right now.

"ʸᵒᵘ ᵏⁿᵒʷ ʷʰᵃᵗ?" Taehyung ʷʰⁱˢᵖᵉʳᵉᵈ while leaning closer to the other male, and jungkook_being curious about what younger wants to tell_did the same.

"ᵐʸ ᶜᵉᵒ ⁱˢ ᵠᵘⁱᵉᵗ ˢᵗʳⁱᶜᵗ! ʰᵉ ˡᵒᵒᵏˢ ˢᵒᵒᵒᵒᵒᵒ ʰᵃⁿᵈˢᵒᵐᵉ ᶠʳᵒᵐ ᶜˡᵒˢᵉ,ʲᵘˢᵗ ˡⁱᵏᵉ ʸᵒᵘ! ᵃⁿᵈ....." he giggled in tiny before continuing the blabber,

"ʰᵉ'ˢ ˢᵒ ᶜᵘᵘᵘᵗᵉ ʷʰᵉⁿ ʰᵉ ᵍᵉᵗˢ ᵇᵘˢʸ ʷⁱᵗʰ ᵗʰᵉ ʷᵒʳᵏ...ʰᵉ ᶠⁱʳˢᵗ ᵍᵉᵗˢ ᶜᵒⁿᶠᵘˢᵉᵈ ʷʰᵉⁿ ᵃⁿʸ ᶠⁱˡᵉ ᵒʳ ᵈᵒᶜᵘᵐᵉⁿᵗ ˢᵉᵉᵐˢ ˡᵒˢᵗ, ᵗʰᵉⁿ ᵍᵉᵗˢ ⁱʳʳⁱᵗᵃᵗᵉᵈ ᵃᵐᵈ ᵗʰᵉⁿ ˢⁱᵍʰˢ ʷⁱᵗʰ ᵃ ᵇᵘⁿⁿʸ ˢᵐⁱˡᵉ ᵃᶠᵗᵉʳ ᶠⁱⁿᵈⁱⁿᵍ ⁱᵗ!"

Taehyung started laughing hard as the last sentence left his lips.

God! He didn't know what he's doing right now...

On the other hand jungkook,too laughed at the cuteness... how he went from emotional to sad to funny character within few minutes was just irresistible.

The only thoughts clouding his mind at the moment were,

'Is it really a mere attraction?'
