Ignore the mistakes plz :) boringgggg

Third Person POV

It was for his own good that Jeongguk should get back to his routine right away. What's done is done and he has nothing to do with Taehyung as he has let him go. And he hasn't told Hyunjae about him either.

He can't make it fair but he didn't tell Hyunjae because he was at fault too just like Taehyung was. Taehyung didn't completely betray him so Jeongguk doesn't tell Hyunjae about him. Fair enough in this unfair world.

His problem is Hyunjae and the other problems they've been facing. They're always facing these problems and winning over them. Just failed this time.

Focus, Jeongguk. Forget it now. When Jeon Jeongguk was never a person to forget even little of betrayals. He always took revenge.

He'll make an exception for the boy he loves. He wasn't in a place to take revenge from him either.

Because Taehyung didn't fucking know! He didn't know he broke his heart.

"This guy provides places for runaways and criminals to hide. He must know a lot of people that have ran away from our hands." Namjoon says.

"His name? Address?" Jeongguk asks.

"Nothing yet. Mingyu's men are searching but he's really good at hiding but at the same time he's been seen a lot. This guy must be good at what he does." Namjoon says.

"Then find him. He could be of big help to us." Jeongguk says, staring outside the window, rocking back and forth on his chair.

"What will you do with him?" Namjoon asks.

"Find him first. The rest doesn't matter right now." Jeongguk says.

Namjoon sighs, seeing Jeongguk doesn't really seem interested in talking about it further.

"Okay. Let's have dinner, come on everyone must be waiting." Namjoon says.

"I'm not hungry. You go."

"We're not eating without you, Jeongguk. And please stop sulking! You promised you'll get over it then atleast try." Namjoon says.

Jeongguk looks and him, wants to tell him it's easier said than done because Namjoon has his lover with him, Jeongguk doesn't.

"Okay. Let's go." Jeongguk says because Namjoon is also right, he has to forget about it so atleast he can pretend he's forgetting about it when it's impossible.

There was a chatter on the dining table when Namjoon and Jeongguk make their way to them. It was the first time they were having dinner together after that day.

"Oh thank God you two are here." Seokjin says when he sees the two of them. Namjoon smiles at him and Jeongguk simply sits on the seat.

"I made your favorite." Seokjin tells Jeongguk who nods. Namjoon knew their conversation as Seokjin told him. He couldn't believe it at first but was immensely happy to hear it.

"Do you want anything else? I can make---".

"No, it's all more than enough." Jeongguk says and Seokjin smiles a little and nods.

The little interaction puts a surprise yet also a smile on everyone's lips as they watch. Seokjin even flushes red when all the smiles, gentle and some teasing ones are directed at him.

Jeongguk simply eats dinner, makes no conversion rather than telling Jimin, Yoongi and Namjoon to look for the guy themselves and bring him in front of Jeongguk as soon as possible.
