Walking past the tall buildings, phone in his hand and staring at his screen where he texted the male he knew since college.
Fast replies, some jokes and Yoongi was ready for his usual morning.
It was such a typical Tuesday.
Texting Hoseok early who was on his way to work as well, getting a coffee and pushing open the entrance door to the big building, the small card hanging around his neck giving view of that he actually worked there and joining multiple other people inside the elevator to get to his floor.
Sitting on the chair on his desk, starting his computer and spinning around in his chair as he waited for a second and took a deep breath in.
Life sucked.
But shit did he wanna pay his bills.
The pay was good after all, and he sometimes did was able to spend his money on different things he wanted.
Nothing too big but living was possible.
A few hours into his work, eyes staring at the screen in front of him, only to look up when someone had to announce something, speaking loud enough for everyone to hear.
A small look around and Yoongis eyes widened, staring at the person who stood a bit behind the guy who announced something.
He didn't even have to listen to know what was said.
In that moment he could only stare, as if completely lost and shocked that this was really happening.
"Mr. Jeon, I'm gonna give you the lead now. Good luck."
"Thanks. Alright, as you all heard I'm gonna take over the lead position of this floor by today as well as of the floor beneath this one. I'm a pretty nice guy, just don't piss me off or try to get around your work somehow because I'll take notice of it and won't hesitate to make something happen. Anyways, let's work well, you can go back to your usual routine."
None other than Jeon Jungkook.
Yoongi wasn't sure what he was staring at right now
Was this jeon Jungkook?
How can someone keep changing so much?
First being a shy baby in high-school, then a heartthrob in college who was a nice idiot and now coming off as so cold heartedly.
His words were taken serious, what was said was basic and quick to understand.
Nothing too sweet or too foolish.
Those big eyes Yoongi stared at so often now seemed so distant and dull.
Still beautiful to look at, but the cute charm they had seemed to have dissappeared, exactly like the smile Yoongi was used to seeing on Jungkooks lips.
It was like a poker face Jungkook had put on.
Not that he looked bad, it simply felt like he had lost something.
Quickly turning back around and trying not to be seen as he saw Jungkook walk around a bit to get familiar on the floor.
Hour after hour, Yoongi sitting on his desk and trying to continue his job like usual.
A small break and he sat down in the small kitchen, head on the table and looking down to his lap where his phone was, Hoseok not yet having answered to some of his messages.
A minute later and Yoongi was hearing the sound of someone walking in, the coffee machine doing its job and the person patiently waiting, leaning against the counter whilst staring around.
Eyes on the smaller male, until someone else walked in, grabbing the attention of Jungkook who now had to answer some questions.
Yoongi widened his eyes as he realized that it was Jungkook, quickly standing up to get out of the kitchen.
Until now he was lucky that Jungkook hadn't recognized him, but for how long would he be able to do that?
He wasn't sure what would happen once Jungkook would recognize him.
Be upset?
Scream at him?
Treat him horrible in this job?
He got through the day without Jungkook.
A day full of mixed feelings.
"..You're for real?" Hoseok asked, Yoongi nodding his head and laying down on his couch.
"I swear to god why now? Why him.. This is horrible Hobi!"
"It's not horrible.. It's awkward" Hoseok corrected, only for Yoongi to sigh out once again.
"What am I gonna do once he recognizes me? Just say Hi? How are you Jungkook after I brutally broke up with you 4 years ago!?"
Hoseok stared at Yoongi not too sure what to say either.
"perhaps.. Well.. You could just say nothing or act like you don't know him?"
".. that's your solution?"
"Yeah that worked for me when I once embarrassed myself in an coffee shop and the next day just acted like I'm someone else." Hoseok shrugged.
"Anyways Yoongs, I have to go again. I'm gonna meet with someone else today as well"
"Alright.. Have fun. I'm gonna text you later to complain some more." Yoongi smiled a bit, Hoseok chuckling as he left the apartment with a simple bye.
Shopping, perhaps that would get him on other thoughts.
Well grocery shopping.
Buying some snacks and some fruit. The usual stuff.
That was until he nearly bumped into someone while taking a right turn, too focused on looking down at his phone.
A small sorry and Yoongi already hurried somewhere else not even looking up or saying anything else.
The next day was a bit stressful.
God did Yoongi try hard not to get close to Jungkook.
Again and again he tried to dodge him like a bullet.
Luckily another day without being noticed.
A midnight snack, a 7 11, just some ramen and a cool drink, as he sat down ignoring some of the other people there.
Very quiet and chill, not saying a word as he listened to some music, not even once taking the hood off even inside the store and probably looking a bit weird, but hell did he feel comfortable like that.
The next day at work, thursday, again not a single sign that Jungkook could've recognized him.
Friday however, near the weekend and walking around in the hoodie he wore a couple days ago, comfortably walking inside the building and again busy looking at his phone as he followed some people in front of him, the hood still up since he had put it on after it started to rain on his way to work and he hadn't had a umbrella.
Walking out on his floor once the door opened and following the guys in front of him, only to suddenly be pushed back inside the elevator, looking absolutely confused until he looked at the person in front of him.
"Are you following me?"
"..huh?" that was everything Yoongi could ask, completely irritated by the question.
Following Jungkook?
"First the grocery store, then this convenience store, then the coffee shop this morning and now even work? Do you even work here!? Are you some kind of stalker!?"
Yoongi blinked a few times, not sure what to say.
So Jungkook still hadn't recognized him because his face was still blocked by the hood, though that didn't make it better, because now the younger thought he was some kind of stalker because of some weird coincidences.
"I work here." Was all Yoongi said, Jungkook letting out a small huff, Yoongi seeing how Jungkook crossed his arms and tapped his foot around a bit pissed.
He didn't believe him.
The elevator eventually stopping and Yoongis arm being grabbed, roughly being pulled towards the doors.
So Jungkook just wanted to throw him out?
"Wait a second! Wait wait! Kook stop it!"
Jungkook actually stopped, staring at the smaller extremely irritated.
Did this stalker know his name?
This stalker did sound very familiar however.
A glance at the hoodie and without a second thought grabbing the hood to pull it down.
Again those cat eyes.
Those sharp cat eyes that kept appearing in Jungkooks dreams and nightmares.
He didn't say a word, just staring at Yoongi absolutely speechless while Yoongi was nervously fiddling with the hem of the hoodie and now tried to explain himself.
"I'm working here.. It-look it was just a coincidence that I showed up at the same locations and.. Yeah.."
However Jungkook still didn't say anything, the grip he had on Yoongi arm only tightening for a few seconds, only to let go and clear his throat.
"I see.. By the way Yoongi.. "
The smaller looked at Jungkook, rubbing his arm and nibbling on his bottom lip a bit nervous.
"It's Mr. Jeon for you. No nicknames."
That was unexpectedly calm and unbothered.
At least Jungkook seemed like that on the outside.
"Of course.. Sorry."
