Rap Monster: "Yeah, I just finished filming."
Jungkook: "So where are you off to now?"
Rap Monster: "Uh... not sure. I am kinda' hungry though."
Jungkook: "Oh, Okay."
Rap Monster: "You're suppose to say 'Namjoon hyung, im kinda' hungry too'."
Hearing the awful imitation of his voice, Jungkook laughs airily on the other end of the phone.
Jungkook: "No~ you were suppose to ask if I was hungry before even mentioning that you were."
Rap Monster: "Aish -- is that boyfriend etiquette?"
Jungkook: "Mmmhmm."
With a smile tattooed across his face, and his phone clutched tightly in his hand, the strings connected to the headphones attached, sway lightly amongst the passing breeze. Surveying the
surroundings just outside of the studio where the program is filmed, his eyes squint slightly.
Rap Monster: "Are you dressed?"
Jungkook: "I can be."
Rap Monster: "Heh, okay. I see a little restaurant near by, I'll text you the address so you can meet me there."
Jungkook: "Should I leave now?"
Rap Monster: "I thought you weren't dressed?"
Jungkook: "I'm getting dressed as we speak."
Rap Monster: "Ah~ good thinking."
Jungkook: "You've rubbed off on me hyung."
RapMon laughs shyly in response.
Jungkook: "I'll leave as soon as you text me the address."
Rap Monster: "Okay -- see you soon."
Jungkook: "Love you."
The words instantly cause for his full cheeks to become pinched with blush as his head raises, shifting his attention unto the clouds above.
Rap Monster: "Love you too..."
The sound of Jungkook's giggle ends when the phone call does. A soft sigh escapes RaPMon as he lowers his shaking head, and proceeds to trudge onward, in the direction of the small diner like restaurant just down the street. The light breeze blows once again, causing the fabric of his black blazer to wave amongst it, as his fingers press swiftly against the keyboard on his screen.
Upon reaching his destination, the exact location is sent to Jungkook via text message. A smile still worn by him as he pushes forth, using the flat palm of his hand to press against the heavy glass door, which motions in the same direction to which he is now moving. The faint sound of music playing amongst the background of the collective of voices gathered within, they surround him as he is then greeted by the host who stands near the entrance.
Removing a single ear bud, it dangles as he and the host engage in a brief conversation where he notifies him that he is expecting someone to join him. Following behind him, RapMon hangs his head low, his eyes shift in every which direction as he passes several tables. Not wanting to be noticed, his hand raises, nearly masking his face as he is lead to a table near the very back of the restaurant, per request.
Removing the other earbud he stuffs both, it, and his phone into his blazer pocket before reaching out and grabbing a hold of the menu which sits on the table top. Raising it so that it conceals his identity, his eyes scroll down the several dishes, shifting every so often above the menu, in order for him to continue observing his surroundings. His eyes proceed to widen, and his menu is gradually lowered as his sight comes in contact with a familiar face being seated in his view.
Completely lowered, a smile reveals itself as he then reaches for his phone once again. Raising it so then it is focused on said person, he allows the view of its camera to adjust before snapping a photo. Gazing at it, his smile strengthens, stretching nearly ear to ear. A soft and airy laugh soon escapes him, his dimples fully exposed. Inserting it into a text, he sends the photo, along with the words "I see you".
Reaching for his menu, he raises it once again, peeking from behind it, he watches as Jin reaches for his phone and then proceeds to look around shyly, armed with a smile laced with nervousness. He soon raises, which prompts RapMon to nearly burst out in laughter, as he remains hidden behind his raises menu. Their eyes meet, and RapMon slinks further, this time only allowing for his blonde slicked back hairdo to be seen.
Slowly, the menu begins to lower, and RapMons eyes raise in order to meet with Jin's once again. A smile forming as he he then proceeds to raise his head. Shaking his own, Jin can't help but laugh while staring down at RapMon from his position standing on the opposite end of the table.
Jin: "I don't know if you meant for that to come across as creepy as it did but -- "
RapMon scoffs, cutting him off. His reaction causing the two to laugh.
Jin: "What're you doing around here?"
Rap Monster: "I just finished filming --"
Jin: "Ah~ 'Problematic Men'."
RapMon nods in response as Jin finishes his sentence.
Jin: "Fitting title for such a problematic man."
He says jokingly, cocking a single eyebrow while doing so.
Rap Monster: "Yah!"
Jin laughs lightly at his reaction.
Rap Monster: "You can sit down you know."
Clutching onto the back of the chair, Jin's lips are held at the side of his face as he contemplates doing so.
Rap Monster: "Its just a seat Hyung. It's not going to hurt you."
Jin: "I'm uh... -- okay, sure."
Pulling it back, RapMon adjusts himself, sitting upright and watching as Jin lowers himself into a proper seated position. The two wear matching smiles as they avoid making direct eye contact with one another.
Jin: "So how did it go?"
Rap Monster: "What?"
Jin: "The filming?"
Rap Monster: "Oh! -- it went well. I was a little nervous, I hope I don't come across as such."
His eyes finally shift toward Jin who is already staring back at him.
Jin: "I'm sure no one even noticed, you always come across very 'cool'."
Rap Monster: "Ah -- thanks hyung."
His hand reaches back, and his fingers run through the hair on the back of his head.
Rap Monster: "What're you doing around here? -- I thought you were going to be at practice with the others."
Jin: "I was, but we're done now."
Rap Monster: "So early?"
Jin leans in slightly, drawing RapMons attention completely and causing him to do the same, though nervously.
Jin: "We take advantage of being leaderless."
He whispers, before pulling back. A smile is worn by him, and a awkward laugh is expelled by RapMon as he too returns to an upright position.
Rap Monster: "Aish! -- you make it sound like you're lead by a tyrant!"
Jin: "Namjoon you are many things, but a tyrant isn't one of them."
He laughs softly.
Rap Monster: "Oh? -- then what are these many things that I am?"
Jin prepares to lean in once again, but halts in his movement as a pair of hands latch onto his shoulders. Turning back hesitantly, both he and RapMon look to Kidoh who now finds himself standing behind Jin.
Kidoh: "Namjoon?"
Jin begins to raise upright from his leaning disposition, while still held on to by him.
Rap Monster: "H-Hyosang hyung?"
Kidoh: "wow! -- it's been a while, eh?"
Rap Monster: "Y-yeah, it has. What're you --"
Kidoh: "I think you're in my seat."
His eyes shift repeatedly, back and forth. Between Jin and Kidoh, before falling on Kidohs hands still holding on to Jin's shoulders.
Rap Monster: "Oh -- I -- I -- "
Kidoh: "No worries -- I can just sit right next to Seokjin."
He reaches out and grabs a chair, pulling it away from the table next to them and sliding it beside Jin before seating himself.
Kidoh: "I didn't know you were going to be joining us, wow! -- I feel like it's been so long since -- "
Rap Monster: "Im sorry -- I didn't know you were meeting with someone -- I'll go -- "
Kidoh: "Don't be silly -- we're all friends here. Stay, join us."
Slightly raised from his seat, RapMon finds himself unsure of what to do, he continues to laugh nervously, as he decides to lower back down and remain seated, watching as Kidoh throws his arm
across Jin's back and while reaching out for the menu with his other hand. RapMon looks to Jin who stares back at him in silence, his blank face, almost stone like as he watches the uneasiness of RapMons demeanor.
Rap Monster: "S-so is this your --"
He begins to speak in an almost silent whisper before being cut off by Jin.
Jin: "Yes -- This is the friend I've been telling you about Namjoon -- My friend..."
RapMons teeth expose themselves as he forces himself to smile while nodding his head in response.
Kidoh: "Oh, by the way, congratulations Namjoon. You guys have come a long way since our trainee days. I'm always rooting you guys on! Your success has been well deserved."
Fidgeting in his seat, he nods in response, while still holding onto his forced smile, a single bead of sweat making its way down the side of his face.
Kidoh: "I'm always telling Seokjin that I wanna pass by the dorm and see you guys, but -- "
Rap Monster: "You're always telling him?"
Kidoh: "Yeah -- whenever we meet up for meals, and stuff."
Rap Monster: "Ah~"
His sweaty palms rub against the fabric of his dress pants, as he attempts to dry them. The single bead of sweat now dangling from his chin before leaping off of it and landing on the back of his hand.
Kidoh: "Man, now I wish the other guys were here. It's been a while since everyone has been together. Everyone has been so busy lately. I can't even tell you the last time I saw any of the guys from our crew."
Rap Monster: "Oh~"
Kidoh: "Yeah -- maybe we should go stop by Marvel J's new place sometime."
Rap Monster: "S-sure~"
Reaching around and grabbing at the back of his neck, he wipes nervously, as he attempts to dry the buildup of sweat which has begun. He removes his blazer, and expels a light breath of air before sitting back in his seat and just observing the two.
Kidoh: "Are -- you okay Namjoon?"
Rap Monster: "Y-Yeah, just got really hot all of a sudden, heh."
Kidoh: "Yeah, it is a little warm in here now that you mention it."
He raises up from his seat abruptly, pulling his arm away from Jin.
Kidoh: "If you boys will excuse me -- I'm going to go find the bathroom."
Both Jin and RapMon nod in response, watching as he steps away from the table, leaving the two to sit in silence as they once again avoid eye contact with one another.
Rap Monster: "You know... I'm seriously starting to question your sanity hyung."
He says snidely, whilst clearing his throat. The accusation causing Jin to jerk back in bewilderment, as he looks to RapMon, who continues to avoid eye contact and instead reads from the menu. His fingers pinching the fabric of his white shirt as he tugs on it repeatedly in an attempt to fam himself.
Jin: "Excuse me?"
Rap Monster: "You're excused."
Jin reaches out and snatches the menu from out of RapMons sight, which finally prompts him to look up at Jin.
Jin: "I said 'Excuse me' -- so that you can explain what the hell you meant by that."
RapMon glares at him from across the table.
Rap Monster: "Lately, you've been acting very strange, and now you're hanging out with this guy."
Jin: "This guy?!"
He snaps back.
Rap Monster: "Yeah -- He's not really a good guy you know, I've never trusted him, he always seemed like... like... a bad person you know."
Jin folds his arms across his chest, a smirk forming as he does so.
Jin: "Isn't he one of your oldest friends?"
Rap Monster: "Y-yeah -- well, not really --"
Jin: "This is news to me."
Rap Monster: "You see, that just goes to show how little you know about him."
Jin: "And apparently you too. I didn't know you hung out with such people."
RapMon stops fanning himself and his teeth.
Rap Monster: "Oh -- yeah -- real bad people -- I'm a -- I'm a bad person too, that's how I know, you see."
Jin nods his head repeatedly.
Jin: "Ah~ then maybe I shouldn't be hanging around with you either."
Rap Monster: "Aish! -- I've changed!"
Jin: "Oh, you have?"
Rap Monster: "Y-yeah."
Jin: "So couldn't he?"
RapMon reaches across the table and snatches the menu from out of his hand.
Rap Monster: "Psh!"
His eyes raise from the menu and look to Jin, who's expression hasn't wavered throughout the entirety of their conversation.
Rap Monster: "What?"
Jin: "Like I'd ever believe you were once a bad guy."
Rap Monster: "What the hell is that suppose to mean? -- are you saying that I couldn't be?"
Jin: "Like I said before... Namjoon, you are many things but --"
RapMon slams the menu down on the table and raises from his seat. With his palms resting flat against the surface of the table, he leans in, in an attempt to intimidate a still smirking Jin.
Jin: "Is this you being a 'bad guy'?"
Rap Monster: "Aish!"
He exclaims before returning to his seat and grabbing a hold of the menu once again.
Jin: "If that's what you mean by bad, then I don't think I have much to worry about in regards to Hyosang."
RapMon his teeth, and raises his menu so that it completely blocks Jin from his sight.
Rap Monster: "As your friend I think you should listen to me when I tell you to stay away from him."
Jin: "And as your friend, I'm
