The Nerds

9: Anxiety Meets

Jungkook's body is shaking. Not just a simple shiver of agitation like one has before a fucking test or upon a first date; but down right trembling to the last bone in this coiling paranoia similar to demons clawing his conscious.

No, not from his adrenaline rush from his recent kill about 30 minutes ago, or the high of cocaine he snorted less than an hour ago to get him pumped up for the said kill; Even though that could've been a great factor as to why his throat is burning and his skin is fucking itching.

No, it's none of those things.

Jungkook is watching the wooden clock move incredibly slow against the wall, nagging his nerves with every second that ticks by- adding a fucking brick of overwhelming anxiety to his already present paranoia.

Nagging his anticipation.

It's only 7:15 p.m. Only 2 hours before he has to get dressed in his disguise and meet with the mysterious man behind the haunting eyes and vibrant red hair. Just remembering about him alone was like a blaring of bells against Jungkook's ears. It would only boost his itching distrust for others, but his curiosity to know the new stranger that entered his class.

Something about this guy really throws Jungkook off, and right now he feels as though he's grown so into his character of being that nerdy kid in school that he has to remind himself of who the fuck he actually is. He's faced so many brutal meetings before, sliced a few heads off without so much of a sweat to it, and already have been to prison and escaped.

Yet somehow meeting with this man completely wiped that all away, just because of how damn unreadable he is.

And so Jungkook is fucking nervous.

He's is rarely nervous, actually.... He's never this nervous. Usually he knows what to expect when things occur in his schedule, and not long before he starts to portray the king of his empire to gain control of the situation..

Now? He doesn't know what to expect, that's what's throwing him off. All he knows is that he wanted to see more of V, there's something odd going on with him and Jungkook needs to feed himself that mind of peace that he's in the clear in order to have more focus on what's next. So he has to see him.

But maybe with more people around.

Where does this itch of Jungkook comes from really? Well you see, he wasn't always like this. Shit, it happened after the many backstabs he's received from this empire, the killing attempts from ridiculous street gangs, and after going to prison at the age of seventeen because he trusted the wrong person.

Now Jungkook lives with this surging glitch in his mind whenever a new person comes out of no where to his familiar areas. This needs to protect and keep his empire stable runs his mind like a stab by knives. He has to know everything, everyone, anyone who is associated anywhere near him and his members of his empire.

That's how he makes sure to keep everyone safe. He's lucky that with this man, V, he's been decent enough to try him out in person before digging into his personal life through Namjoon's hacking skills. However that's something that's bound to come eventually because his paranoia will get the best of him, along with his twitching trust issues to believe a few simple words.

There's rarely going to be anyone in the school's library at this hour, perfect opportunity for a heart to hear conversation, but this also only intriguing Jungkook even more as to why V suggested such hours.
