Summary
Their eyes meet against the rise and fall of the song, a beat of a drum to a thump of a bass, and for the first time, this one doesn't smile back.
It's a rush of a different kind but somehow, that is all that it truly takes.
Or, Jeongguk spots Taehyung in the crowd. He is unable to think of nothing else since.

Summary
Jimin picks his work carefully, spends weeks or even months looking into things himself before even bringing it up to Taehyung. But Taehyung’s other clients probably don’t afford the same sort of… courtesy. They play fast and loose with his safety like the amount of zeroes in the wire transfer compensates for the proportional danger. And Jimin knows Taehyung is just as complicit because he’s the one that accepts the jobs, is the one that was doing this work long before Jimin met him even at twenty-six, but it’s easier to blame someone else that’s faceless and more unscrupulous for the worst sleepless nights he gets.
Jimin knows that at one point he’d hired Taehyung for his discretion. But now that discretion has started to chafe on the best nights, and disappear entirely on the worst.
This one is not off to an excellent start.

Summary
Taehyung has been the sole guardian of his best friend's infant daughter for two months, and he's starting to feel a little on-edge. He lost his best friend and became a parent all in one shocking moment, and now it's all he can do to get Mari to sleep most nights. He never gets to go out, barely sees his friends -- he's not even painting anymore.
He loves Mari more than anything, and he knows she comes first, so when he's offered a fellowship to work on his art, he plans to turn it down. However, when his best friend's obnoxious brother, Mari's Uncle Jungkook, offers to help him out, it's not exactly like he can say no -- even if he might want to.

Summary
Jungkook has never shied away from making his affection known, but Taehyung is good at keeping himself emotionally unavailable. No matter how charming Jungkook is at the office, no matter how he showers Taehyung with praise and presents, Taehyung remains firm in his refusal.
Still, he's only human, and when they have to spend a week together on a business trip, sharing a hotel room, Taehyung's conviction is tested every hour, every minute, every second.
(He makes it to Tuesday.)

The next class, a warm drink is waiting for Yoongi on his desk. It’s an Americano.
“How’d you…” Yoongi says, staring at it.
“A few weeks ago you told me you liked to drink them,” Taehyung says. He looks pleased with himself, until he scowls. “At night. No wonder you always fall asleep in class, hyung."
-
Yoongi keeps falling asleep in class. The alpha that sits in the desk next to him keeps bringing him breakfast.

Jungkook doesn’t know what to call it, this thing that they do together.
An arrangement?
The word arrangement is too clinical. But the word relationship is far too intimate.

Summary
Pressing Taehyung against the wall and keeping him there is easy enough. What’s never easy, and Jungkook should learn this by now, is staying focused when Taehyung’s face is so close to his.
“You,” Jungkook grits out. “—are starting to get on my nerves.”
Taehyung, who has no right to act bold given his current position, lifts his chin up and clicks his tongue. “And you’re as predictable as always.”
“I’m not the one pinned to a grimy wall.”
“No,” Taehyung replies. “But you’re the one who’s about to get cut open.” -

Summary
There’s something bugging Taehyung, like a heavy blot on the corner of his vision. The blot shifts, takes a drink, and Taehyung looks over and realizes with a jolt that it’s Jeon Jungkook. He’s standing there at the end of the swing, looking down, and maybe it’s weird to think of someone as alone at a party like this, but it somehow seems like he is.
“You guys remember Jungkook?” Hoseok asks sweetly. And Taehyung just blinks at him, because that’s like asking if he remembers the moon, or the existence of fireworks, or the Bengal tiger.
“We sure do,” Jimin says, not sweetly. Jungkook nods at them, but he only briefly makes eye contact. Taehyung registers that he looks older, his jawline sharper.
“How’s your summer?” Taehyung asks him uncertainly.
“Fine,” Jungkook says.
~~~
It's summer in the suburbs. Taehyung and Jimin are back in town after graduating, and they run into an old friend.
