__________________

Perhaps Jungkook had such agony, passion, and desperation in his wish that even fate decided to sympathize with the mafia male and fulfill what he desires and soothe the older.

Because the next sunrises on its peak and enlightened the world with its luminous burning rays and Taehyung was awoken with nothing in his mind but only the sheer headache pulsing in his forehead.

He didn't remember anything.

The only thing he remembers is to bathe with his lover and sharing sweet gentle kisses and laughs with him.

He does remember the loving touches of his baby on his body that too after he catches sight of the soft pink blotches all over his body which screams the pleasurable euphoria he must have felt last night.

Other than that all the things were foggy, he can still see a few cut-up images in his mind if he put too much thought into it but not all the things, just how Jungkook was gawking at him with sweet loving eyes and how he was kissing him passionately and given him the warmth he's addicted to.

"Kookie..." A whine left the younger's mouth as he nuzzles his whole face into Jungkook's neck and clung to him tightly.

"My head hurts so bad" Jungkook sighs and craned his head to the side to sweetly kisses his forehead.

"I am sorry, my heart. I shouldn't have let you drink it" Jungkook whispered, guilt and worry lacing his tone as he stares down at his pup's curled up figure on his lap and his small fisted hands on his shirt.

His long thick fingers slowly threaded into his petal's soft silky brown hairs and starts to fondle with the smooth locks and massaging his head soothingly with his finger gently rubbing on his scalp and temple.

Taehyung's eyes were neared shut, still too heavy to open them since he woke up fifteen minutes ago and from then his face is buried in his neck, seeking comfort and attention.

Jungkook didn't mind giving his pup whatever he wishes, his chest heavy seeing his petal in pain and he did everything in him to soothe his precious heart and try to do everything to ceases down his headache which was totally expected.

Needless to say, Taehyung slept again in the warmth of his lover providing him the needed comfort and when he woke up again he was showered with Jungkook's butterfly kisses which he kept giving his petal and muttering sweet nothings and love confessions in his ears.

Taehyung was in such a good mood after that where his boxy smile seems to stick on his mouth, his lips didn't dare curve down, his heart was at peace and he was happy receiving affection from his boyfriend.

Well, the smile soon changed into a scowl when Jungkook drives him to his house and decided to walk him towards his door as the older was getting kinda protective over Taehyung's health who assured him that he was very much alright now.

But the mafia didn't listen to his petal just like the mafia's weak heart that didn't listen to his mind and decided to become a brat and made sure his love is safe and getting proper rest and he won't be contented until he can't see it with his own eyes.

And of course, Jungkook and Jimin had to encounter each other and two devils start to bicker once again—the reason was Taehyung—once again.

Jimin after seeing Taehyung a bit down and having a slight headache burst at his bestie's boyfriend, as protective as he is over Taehyung he couldn't help but scold Jungkook for letting Taehyung drink.

"Shut up, shorty! I don't need to take classes from you on how to be a responsible boyfriend! Get yourself one then we will talk"

Jungkook grunted at the frowning Jimin who has his hands on his hips and Taehyung behind him who was trying hard to stop the two males who are ready to strangle each other at any moment.

Jimin huffed and scowl at the male in front of him with arrogance and annoyance written over his face.

"Huh! Bold of you to assume I don't have a boyfriend and let me tell you one thing, Mr. Good for nothing pillar! He's a very much responsible and sweet nature person! Not like you, a brat" Jimin retorted back with proudness and also venom dripping from his tone as his expression was aggravated too.

Jungkook steps forward with a cold and expressionless face, eyes screaming outrage as he looks down at the short male. "What did you just call me?"

"A brat who doesn't know how to accept his mistakes and apologize for it!" Jimin also steps forward and stared at the male with his eyes cold too, both males had scowls on their faces and a hard glare, no one was ready to back away.

"You need to control your stupid mouth or I will make sure to seal it permanently. A teenager like you shouldn't be getting involved with an adult like me, understand?" Jeon mocked with a smirk of victory on his mouth.

Jimin fumes in anger but then he also smirked and stares at the taller male. "You're right. I shouldn't be involved with an old man like you who 24/7 having a scowl on his stupid face"

Jeon scoffed. "Huh! Millions of people are head over heels for this same stupid face shorty but it's fine, whatever makes you sleep at night" Jeon patted his cheek mockingly.

Jimin swatted his hand away angrily and open his mouth to bit back at the arrogantly taller male but was cut off by the exhausted voice.

"Guys! Just shut the fuck up!" Taehyung's voice pulls them both apart from their hard eye contact and they both stare at the tired-looking male.

A frown instantly set upon both of the males as they saw the defeatness on their precious face, Taehyung's shoulder hunged down in fatigue.

Jimin was going to step forward toward his best friend when Jungkook beats him to it and moves forward to cups his petal face with both of his hands.

"Petal, you okay? Is it hurting again?" His voice was filled with concern while his eyes darted all around his face searching for the cause of his discomfort.

"Yes! But not because of the hangover but because of you both! Why do you guys hate each other so much? Your usual argument doesn't even make sense. You both don't know each other that much for god sake!" Taehyung explodes, a frown of bitterness on his face as he glared at his lover.

Jungkook pursed his lips and pouts a bit. "But you saw how he was the one who started it! I was here to drop you. I didn't even say anything before he starts to disrespect me" he defended.

"Disrespect?" Jimin scoffed. "Your first impression wasn't so good for me to respect you, brat!"

"See! Did you see it! He's still acting like that then how should I be silent!" Jungkook told Taehyung as he pointed at Jimin who huffed and roll his eyes.

Taehyung sighs deeply and massages his temple.

How should he make these two overly bratty males who refuse to back down because of their big fat ego and kept fighting verbally to stop coming at each other's the moment they see one another?

"You know what? Just take off your sandals and starts to beat each other until both of you are satisfied!"

"Bitch my Gucci slippers are much expensive and precious for me to touch this brat"

"Fuck off" The mafia retorted.

"Same to you" Jimin smiles fakely at the taller.

Jungkook ignored the short male and turn back to face his on the verge of giving up lover and caressed his cheeks, he leans forward and lovingly kisses his forehead.

"Just go to your room and rest, petal. No need to come to the office today, just rest properly, hm?" Jungkook said, voice turner 360° as it is the softest and gentlest Jimin ever heard him as he now talks to his heart who had a pout on his face.

"But Kookie. I am fine now, I can com-"

"Ssh!" Jungkook places his finger on his lips and now sternly said.

"No excuse. You're resting and that's final. I won't let you work when you're looking like this. I shouldn't have offer you to drink. It's my fault" he whispered, slowly.

Taehyung rolls his eyes at his overprotective lover and smiles. "It's just a headache, baby! No need to get so serious over such a small thing. I can handle it"

Jungkook sighs and moves to engulf the younger into his arms, tightly holding him against his chest and kisses his head.

Jimin unknowingly got a soft smile on his face he sees Taehyung smiling resting his cheek on Jungkook's shoulder and sighs deeply like he was in contentment and utterly happy in the warmth of the brat.

"Fine but call me when you don't feel good. I will be there right away, ok?" He pulls back to stare at his petal.

Taehyung eyes soften as he smiles at Jungkook. "Ok, now drive safely"

The latter hummed. "Take care. I love you"

"I love you too" Taehyung chuckles and pecks his cheek warmly.

The mafia male breathes out and unwillingly lets go of his heart and turns around to leave, rolling his eyes once his eyes land on the short male who reciprocated his actions and mocked him.

Jungkook went away with a last glare.

Taehyung folded his arms over his chest and stare down at Jimin with a raised eyebrows.

Jimin huffed. "What?" He looks away from the glare and shrugged his shoulders. "Jeez, fine. I know he's a good and responsible boyfriend, ok! but there's no doubt that he's also a brat and an arrogant tower"

Taehyung shakes his head defeatedly and turns on his heels to walk upstairs. His head was pounding so hard he's feeling dizzy.

Jimin followed the younger and jumps on his back with a teasing smirk causing the latter to shrieks and lost his balance but quickly balanced himself with the older ones behind his back. "Did you guys do the goody goos, huh?"

Taehyung flushed a deep shade of red and throws the younger on the couch and make a run to his room but Jimin beats him to it and enters the room before he can lock it.

"Why so blushy blushy, huh? Come on, tell me. Don't be shy" Jimin said annoyingly and placed his arm over Taehyung's shoulder and wiggles his eyebrows at him teasingly.

"Chim! Go away!" Taehyung pouts.

"Ok, if you're this shy then I can go first! Now, lemme tell you about mine oof TaeTae! The best fuckity fuck of my life! That too with my Yoongi poongi, my catty, my Papi!" Jimin gushed out with a squeal and now Taehyung was more interested and sits on the bed patting the place in front of him for Jimin to come and sit.

"Now spill the tea, bitch!" Taehyung said and excitedly bounce on the bed.

"On one condition! You will tell me about yours too!"

"I always do, Chim! No need to whine for it! Now spill it! I wanna hear everything!"

And there goes the day of two soulmates who spend telling their stories and moments spent with their men's and squealing in every minute with the mouth having a permanent grin.

_____________________

"Yo! Jimin! Where are you going?" Someone yelled from behind the giddy male walking opposite to where his duty was making him turns around and raise an eyebrow in question.

"To my Papi, any problem?"

"But this is your shift time! Who's going to be at your place then?"

Jimin sighs and rolls his eyes. "Just that? Send Jack instead, that fucker needs to work more rather than flirting and making out with customers"

The male named Haechan smirked at his work friend evilly. "You're really so evil, going so hard on that poor boy"

Jimin huffed. "He's nowhere near poor boy plus he had dared talk inappropriately about my Papi behind his back that too in front of my face, so he deserves it"

Haechan chuckles and nods. "Got it"

Jimin whistles as he walks forward, a bounce in his steps as he happily humming a romantic tone, a smile was wide on his plump lips.

Why he was so happy? It is because today is the one-month anniversary of his and Yoongi's beautiful relationship as boyfriends.

Jimin was so giddy, his belly was filled with butterflies as he thought about the past month which he has spent being a lover of his love of life, his Papi.

All the smiles, kisses, hugs, cuddles-yes cuddles too after the long night of steamy sex which Jimin swear he's addicted to.

They had fucked so much to the point of identifying each curve of their body and can tell about all the sweet spots and kinks of the other with close eyes.

Jimin was already a kinky fucker and Yoongi not minding his wild kinks of fucking in front of a mirror or the kitchen counter or even on his office table and sometimes against the wall too was the cherry on top of his devasting happiness.

Yoongi was more intrigued by it, to say the least, he enjoyed fulfilling Jimin's every wish and kinks, the mafia boss for the first time ever felt like he needs to do whatever Jimin wishes for and gives him everything.

He has lived his life being a selfish and self-love person who always thought of himself only and nothing matters to him but now—now he feels like to give his all to his boyfriend and take care of him as he deserves.

And Yoongi enjoys doing it, he loves every bit of a moment he spent with Jimin and couldn't help but feel like being with him all the time. The mafia won't admit but many times in a day Jimin cross over his mind and he always tends to smile naturally at the thought of him....he couldn't help but miss the younger who's slowly creeping into his heart and making himself a very important person in his life without even trying.

Yoongi was slowly falling for the younger and Jimin had no idea of how he was making Yoongi head over heels for him by just being himself.

Jimin sighs deeply, heart filled with undying love and affection for the older as he smiles lovingly, dodging all the tipsy people with hurried steps inside the club as he wanted to reach the mafia's office as soon as possible before his heart explodes and he will be melting into a puddle by the gummy smile that's creeping into his mind and making him miss his lover more than he was already missing him.

"Oh, Papi. Your smile should be captured and placed in the hospital walls for therapy sessions, it is such a healing smile."

Jimin muttered to himself, gushing out with a sweet smile as he reaches the office and holds the doorknob, opening it a little but stopped in the middle when he heard different voices inside.

"Kim mafia really getting on my nerves now! They keep on interrupting our shipping and ruining our orders before they even reach the seller" Yoongi's voice was laced with annoyance.

Jimin bites his bottom lip when he heard the word mafia and decided to leave and come later because his boyfriend seems to be in an important meeting and he sure Yoongi wouldn't like it if he disturbed him now.

He sighs and pouted, he wanted to be in his lover's embrace and missing his warmth, he was so excited to congratulate him for being so loving and sweet in this one month and now he has to wait until he finishes his mafia works.

He shakes his head and was going to close the door discreetly but a word made him stop it when Yoongi uttered it.

"Jeon, what do you want us to do now because this can't be tolerating anymore. You have to decide about this matter or we will lose our many important sellers who are very angry about the delay"

Jimin gulped, his heart-stopping at the name of someone he doesn't even meet yet the latter had managed to traumatized him just by his name—well, not only him but the whole world.

His hands tighten on the doorknob as he realizes that the world's one of the biggest and scariest mafia is in a room which he was going to enter and Jimin already felt like shitting in his pants.

He swallowed harshly and decided to get the hell away from here before that Jeon leader sees him.

But just as he was about to run the fuck from here to save his life he heard voices from inside which made him halted in his steps.

A discreet sound, a deep whisper yet it seems to be the male's natural tone sending shivers down his spines till his toes.

Now a curious tingles spread into his body when he heard the low tone of the ruthless mafia leader, the scariest mafia whom he wanted to see for once in his life but also with a great distance as he was a little terrified of the unknown male who was at the moment here in this room and Jimin a trouble maker that he is wanted to peek now before he goes.

He felt his heart pounding when he again slowly opens the door, making sure to not make a sound and push his head a bit inside the opening of it to dart his eyes around the room, finding his boyfriend standing against the table, leaning on it with folded arms naked and bare to stare at the blueish veins in the pale skin tone.

...reminding him of the night when Yoongi was choking him with the same bare hands while thrusting hard and deep inside his hole.

Jimin drools at the sexy way his lover was standing, his face was cold and expressionless, eyes burning in annoyance but features still look calm and collected making him look more intimidating and hot and Jimin was a sucker for it.

My Papi~~

He gushed out insides his head and squeal loudly internally, he was seriously whipped for the pale male and it was so obvious.

"Mhm, you're right. This is not tolerable anymore." A deep voice sounded in the room pulling Jimin out of his staring trance. "Send a team to their spots, you know what you had to do to give them the taste of their medicines"

Jimin's breath hitches as his eyes land on the second figure standing near the window—back facing him.

Jimin bites his lips as to not gasp loudly at witnessing the ruthless mafia in front of him just a few feet away in all his glory, a smoke was clouding around him while he can only stare at his broad back and his raven long wavy hairs.

His hairs weren't white as he was expecting rather the latter looked quite young from behind with a strong muscly body clad in tight clothes.

"It's time we know the reason behind their attacks on my team which is putting yourself into my bad list which no one dares to do without a logical motive or just because of their idiocy," Yoongi smirks at his words and hummed.

"Sure, this thing had to be done before they do something else to stand against the Jeon" Yoongi smirked.

Meanwhile, Jimin had a sudden confusing frown on his face as he runs some fuses on his head to think why the hell the voice of the ruthless leader sounds all too familiar like he had heard it somewhere but can't put a finger on it as to where.

"There must be a solid reason for them to think of medling with Jeon because as far as I know, they never dared to do that before and we have nothing to do with them" Jeon inhale a deep intake of fog in his mouth and breathes out before he slowly turns towards Yoongi and smirked.

"Make sure to put some senses into their heads before coming back with good news, understood?" Jeon instructed causing Yoongi's smirk to widens.

"Did I ever disappointed you" he raised an eyebrow.

Jungkook nodded. "Good"

Jimin's felt nervous for some reason as his gut felt weird for some reason, the voice was so familiar that the shorter felt like he had met the other mafia somewhere from seeing his back too which also seems familiar.

Jimin holds his breath, his hands unconsciously tighten more on the handle as he sees Jeon slowly turning around and moving to sit on the couch.

Taking away Jimin's way of breathing as he stood there frozen on his spot.

"N-No..."

Jimin's eyes widen, his heart momentarily stops thumping for a second as his eyes land on the familiar face of the latter who was sitting right in front of his eyes.

"J-Jungkook?" He whispers under his breath.

Not any familiar but the face of someone he often sees with Taehyung.

Not anyone but the boyfriend of his brother like a best friend.

Jimin couldn't believe his eyes, his heart starts pounding inside his chest now that he can clearly see the ruthless mafia's face which was none other than Jungkook himself.

A loud gasp left his mouth in utter shock and surprise as his hold loosens around the doorknob causing it to close on his own and creating a loud sound of it—alerting the males inside the office who stop talking once they heard the noise of the door shutting.

Yoongi and Jungkook frowned as they look at each other.

Jimin stumbles back, hands start trembling and the body starts shaking as his eyes didn't cease to come to their normal state rather they were as large as a big circle, his back hits the wall behind him and he felt like his legs left all the energy and now they felt like jelly.

He couldn't stand, couldn't think straightly as he trembles in seeing something which was so unbelievable to his eyes.

No, it can't happen. This is not true, it can't be true. He's just imagining it, what he's seeing in front of him can't be true.

Jungkook, the lover of his best friend couldn't be sitting in front of his eyes and it's sure as hell couldn't be a mafia that too as a ruthless and merciless Jeon.

No, Jungkook can not betray Taehyung like this! He can't play with Taehyung's feelings like this. He can't fool his Taetae like this. He—He can't.

Jimin head snapped up towards the door when he feels step coming closer to it, instantly on instinct Jimin stumbles forward on his jelly legs and hides behind the pillar, chest heaving up and down and sweats forming on his forehead at the tension seeping in his veins when he heard the door open.

He pressed his palm into his mouth, his lips trembling and throat clogging up on him at the vile stuck on there, paining him greatly yet he didn't dare make a single sound.

"Who's there?"

Jimin closes his eyes tightly at the voice of Yoongi.

Dread filling his whole being as he couldn't believe the leader Yoongi always talked about was none other than Jungkook and Jimin felt anger bubbling into him.

Jungkook had betrayed his baby, he had lied to Taehyung about his identity, and only the thought of how broken Taehyung will be after knowing the truth broke Jimin's heart.

Yoongi looks around but didn't find anyone so he again steps inside and this time he locked the door.

"Who was it?" Jeon asks.

"I think it was the staff member but seeing me busy they left without a word so I can not fire them for breaking the rule of never entering without knocking"

Jeon hummed and nodded in acknowledgment.

Jimin stands there for a minute, trying to gather himself and calm his raging heartbeats, his eyes filling up with instant anger and hatred, he didn't know what to do now.

Jimin sighs deeply, his shoulders shuddering as he steps out and hurriedly runs out of there, he didn't think twice to push whoever comes in his way as only one thought was running in his head.

Taehyung had to know the truth.

He can't hide this big thing from Taehyung and see that bastard breaking his baby bit by bit every day by lying to him on his face about his true identity.

"Hey! Jimin?" Haechan called after the male who was abruptly running like some dog was after him to bite.

Jimin didn't hear and runs out of the club, sitting in his car, and starts the engine, tears rolling down his cheeks as he imagines how Taehyung will be after he tells him this.

He after such a long time manage to hold himself up after his father's death and his hyungie's incident, he had tried so hard to soothe the younger, and now this thing again, he knows it will totally break Taehyung into beyond any repair and Jimin was terrified of just the thought of it as he drives towards their home.

_____________________

Bang

A groan of defeat left the male's lips when the bullet didn't touch the red circle on the target, it has only an inch difference to not touch the red dot—once again causing the male to gets annoyed by it.

He shakes his head and took a deep breath, calming his anger and closing his eyes for a brief moment then again open with new determination.

The male stands straight, eyes sharp and focus behind the yellow-colored glasses tucked behind his ears, curly hairs ticklish to his eyes and making him blink them.

With the gun in his hands, he sharply pulls the trigger, eyes focus on the target, specifically on the red small circle on the center of it, he sighs out.

"Need help?" A deep voice sounded just close to his ears causing a shiver to run down his spine.

Warm breath tickles the sides of his face and neck as he can feel warmth engulfing him from behind.

Samin smirked at noticing the red hue decorating his baby's cheeks and slowly trail his tip of fingers on his arms, goosebumps rising on Hoseok's body as Samin's hand touched his and grabbing it, pushing it upwards in a position to point at the target.

"Close your eyes," He said, a deep and low tone sounds so raspy to Hoseok's ear who was forced to close the eyes and relish at the moment.

Samin's chest pressed to his back as he steps forward, one hand rested on the side of his waist and sliding towards the other side of it, palm rubbing possessively over his stomach to curl it around hoseok.

The younger gasps vocally and sighs shakily, Samin loves the reaction Hoseok's gives to his touches and felt his chest swelling in adoration.

His hand tightly holding Hoseok's who was holding the gun and pointed it at the red circles, Samin closes his one eyes and adjusted the gun.

"Shoot"

He ordered and Hoseok immediately pressed his finger to the holder and a loud booming voice echoed on the silent big practice room.

The shot was right in between the red circle and Sam got a proud smirk decorating his face.

"Open your eyes, baby" Samin breathes out and the younger slowly opens his eyes, a hearty smile forms on his mouth as he sees the bullet hit perfectly on the target.

Hoseok's breath hitches as Samin's other hand which was holding his gun-held hand also sliding down to his arms and reaching his waist, now back hugging the younger in a warm hug.

"Happy?" Samin whispered in his ears, lips touching the shell of his earlobe, hoseok looks down, his heart rate risen to the max as the gun slip and fell on the floor, he placed his hand on top of Samin.

Sam smiles and pressed a gentle kiss on Hoseok's shoulder then pressing his face in his neck, his nose rubbing around the sensitive skin making Hoseok close his eyes and sighing in bliss.

"So much" the younger mutters under his breath.

Samin pulls away to turn around the latter and now curl his arms around him, pulling him flush to his body.

"I knew I will find you here" Samin talks, voice so smooth and velvety.

"Why were you searching for me?"

Sam lifts an obvious eyebrow at the younger. "I don't think I need a reason to search for my boyfriend"

Hoseok's eyes widen momentarily but then a blush brightens his cheeks and he looks away. "Oh"

"I was just missing you, wanted to hold you in my arms, touch you...kiss you...is there any problem if I do that, hm?" Samin asks face tilting to the side with a hint of a smile on his face.

Hoseok's rosiness increases more.

"N-No....of course not!"

"Fine, then come closer," Samin said pushing his chin towards him and leaning down, Hoseok's gasps. "N-Now?!"

"Yes, right now" saying this samin pressed his lips to the younger, gently opening his mouth to suck on his lips making the other close his eyes, and clung to his shirt, fisting it in the feeling of butterflies in his stomach.

Hoseoks bites his lips when samin pulls away, face so close just a few inches away when caressed his cheeks with his thumb, forehead attached together.

"I love you" He whispered.

Hoseok smiles and looks up at him through his lashes, his eyes forming a glint of twinkles and happiness in it.

"I love you too," he said back.

"I still can't believe it you know? It's like we're still in a dream...a beautiful dream" Samin grinned so much Hosoek felt blind by the shine of happiness around him.

He laughs and slides his arms around his shoulder and leans forward to peck his lips softly. "Me too but dreams aren't this real...they don't seem this ticklish when you touch me...it is real... I know it is a dream come true for me" he giggles.

Samin nodded with a chuckle. "For both of us"

He reaches forward to lovingly nuzzled into his neck and bites his cheek in adoration.

"Let's go out tonight" he proposed.

"Where?"

"Anywhere. On a date" he smiles. "But this time on a couple date, a date as boyfriends" Samin caressed his cheeks, thumbs rubbing circle on his waist as he leans forward to kiss his cheek.

"After all, my baby deserves an official proposal on an official date where I ask you to become my official boyfriend"

Hoseok giggles and nods eagerly. "Ok!" He chirped.

"Let's go get ready, I want to spoil my unofficial boyfriend tonight" he winks at the younger who beamed and jumps on him kissing his cheeks, and squealed.

"Gosh! It sounds so amazing, Sami!"

"I know, right?" Samin turns around and bends down, ushering Hoseok to climb on him who happily did like they usually do.

Samin stands straight and Hoseok wraps his limbs around his torso and curls his arms around his neck, chin resting on his shoulder.

"Let's go, my peasant! I want to be spoiled tonight to make up for all those tears I have wasted for you!" Both males giggled and Samin squeezes his thighs in fondness.

"I wanna be loved tonight..." Hoseok mumbled in his neck, eyes shining and mouth having a loving sweet smile.

"I will love you...not just tonight but forever" Samin whispered lovingly, smiling in utter happiness and affection in him towards his baby that he wanted to cry.

Cry loudly at the thought of how now this beauty only belongs to him, finally after patiently waiting for and yearning for this same beauty to love him back without having any idea of the mutual feelings between them.

Well, nothing matters now, all he knows now is that....his—no their wait and tears were worth this contentment and love in their life.

They were happy and that's all that matters to them.

____________________

Jungkook had a deep frown on his face, his forehead wrinkling in distress while lips kept sucking on a killing stick to take a deep breath of the smoke in his system.

He was standing near the window once again in Yoongi's office who was sat on the chair and typing in his laptop to plan an attack and inform his team to get ready for it.

Jeon placed his palm on his chest where his heart was oddly beating fastly, his chest was heavy for some reason, he rubs the place to soothe the pain shooting in his heart but it seems not the physical pain but the internal pain.

Like some kind of an instinct.

Like his six senses telling something is not right and he felt dread filling his body causing him to feel anxious.

Jeon walk towards the couch and hunchs on it, his face facing downwards on the floor while the cigarette slip from his fingers and landing on the floor, Jeon crushed it with his legs in such aggressiveness from the weird sensation going on in his heart.

Something is not right, he can feel it. He knows something is going to happen which will bring great chaos but he doesn't know what it is about.

He groaned, palm still caressing his left side of his chest as his eyes shutting close.

And only the thing he sees under his close eyelids is his petal's beautiful smile which brought the sudden fear inside him that creeps up to his every vein.

Yoongi frowned as he heard the groaning of the latter inside the office and looks at him. "Jeon?" He called out questioningly.

The mentioned male didn't hear, he was too caught up in this sudden terror in his heart that his mind was becoming a mess of outcomes that entering his mind which were not good at all.

"Jeon? Are you okay?" Yoongi asks again, this time louder and with a little tone of concern in his cold deep voice.

This time the leader heard and sighs deeply, eyes still cast down as he now reaches up to his face and rubbed his face with both of his palms, his legs bouncing in nervousness.

"Jeon-"

"H-Hyung..."

Yoongi stopped unexpectedly in his place, his eyes dilate a bit as he heard the latter calling him something he was used to calling him all those years ago.

He didn't hear that name for such a long time that now when Jeon suddenly calls him that, it stunned him greatly.

"Hyung... something—something is not right....I-I can feel it..." Jeon mumbled in his palms, still running his hands all over his face and hairs and tugging in his strands, he was getting so anxious and panicky that it concerns the other male in the room.

Yoongi immediately stands up, sensing this is something serious now, and sits beside the other male, he grabs his shoulder and soothingly squeezing it gently.

"Kook, what's wrong," he asks, voice soft and gentle like a comforting whisper.

Jungkook groaned and hardly tugs on his hairs, he was breathing ragingly. "I...I...my—my chest is...is so heavy...I...My heart says... something is—is going to happen...hyung... something is not okay...I..." He stuttered out, talking in broken words but Yoongi clearly understands what the latter was trying to say.

After all, this wasn't the first time he had seen this side of Jungkook.

"Kook, look at me," Yoongi said and push his head towards him and that's when Yoongi notices the tears that's gathering in Jungkook's round eyes and it made the mafia boss worried.

He was alarmed now.

Jungkook looks up, he gulps, his chest heavening up and down as he opens his mouth. "Hyung...I-I am scared" he voice out his trouble.

"Scared about what?" Yoongi asks calmly, now rubbing his back to calm his friend.

"I don't know..." He replied, voice so weak and shaky that it bought more concern to Yoongi who was trying hard to calm the panic, uneasy male.

Jungkook rubs his eyes, clearing away all the wetness that's brimming inside it, and again rubs his chest. "I...hyung... what's—what's happening to me?"

Something's bugging Jeon but he can't put a finger on it.

He looks up into Yoongi's eyes, desperately looking for answers to his sudden distress but found none making him edgier.

"Kook, try to calm down. Everything's fine" Yoongi said, tried to console the latter but it seems like Jungkook wasn't able to control this feeling inside his heart... it's like a warning...

Warning for something big that's going to happen.

And he wants to figure out the reason behind it to prevent it from happening.

"Nothings alright, hyung! Nothing! I told you I feel this...this annoying burden in my heart! I am telling you something is not right! Believe me!" Jungkook burst out and stood up, his voice going louder by the minute from the fear that's increasing every second.

"Ok ok, I believe you, kook. I believe you, ok. Calm down" Yoongi also stands up.

"I can't calm down, hyung! Try to understand! I...I am scared but I don't know why! It's—it's just so..." Jungkook again tugs on his hairs, tears again gathering from the pain in his heart but he tries hard to didn't let it out.

"So heavy in my chest..."

He mumbled, looking up at Yoongi who felt a pang in his chest at the most vulnerable look on Jungkook's face he has seen after so long.

It brought him back to the past when Jungkook was in the same situation but for a different reason and he knows how hard it was for him to comfort him back to his real self.

"Jungkook, ok..can you tell what it is about, huh? Like any hint...any name or face coming into your mind?" Yoongi asks, holding Jungkook's arms, and comfortingly looked at him.

Jungkook took his time thinking about it again and again but all he sees under his close eyelids is the face of his beloved and it worsens his situation as he uttered heavily, voice trembling and body shaking.

"Petal"

"Petal...I feel like...feel like he's—he's slipping from my hold...like he's—he's going away from me...like I am...I am losing him....hyung...I-I can't lose him hyung! He's my love...I-I can't live without him, hyung! I can't!" Jungkook cried out, lips quivering, and body trembles from the pressure.

Yoongi frowned but then remembers that Jungkook called Taehyung Petal and he sighs, smiling a bit while rubbing his shoulders.

"Ssh! Ssh! Calm down. You won't lose him. Now go call him, talk to him. Maybe this will calm you, hm?" Yoongi suggested, a relief feature taking his features when Jungkook immediately nodded and dig his trembling hands into his pocket to pull out his phone and dial the specific number he called very often.

Yoongi steps aside and lets Jungkook go outside towards the balcony to talk to Taehyung.

He sighs, looking at the back of Jungkook head, his shoulders were still shaking, he was hiccuping without any tears coming out of his eyes, his chest was heavier than anything in this world like someone placed a whole cliff on his chest.

Yoongi sighs deeply, his hands fisted on his sides as he softly stares at Jungkook before he whispers to himself.

"Don't worry, Jungkook-ah. I promise hyung will not let anyone take this happiness away from you, you deserve it and I won't allow anyone to hurt you ever again...I will make sure this happiness is with you forever..." His eyes turn softer as a glint of guilt present in his orbs.

"This time...I am here to protect you and the one who's close to your heart from everyone...hyung is here"

___________________________

Jimin breathes frantically, his heart pounding in his chest, so loud and fast that he can hear it rings in his ears.

His body going numb, palms sweaty from nerves as he was standing outside Taehyung's room.

He came here with great determination and anger in his body, he was adamant to tell Taehyung about the liar that he calls his baby, ready to reveal his agonizing truth he was hiding from Taehyung but now—now that he's here, standing just a door away from telling Taehyung everything.

He feels fear and anxiety entering his senses.

He was cowering away.... cowering away from the heartbroken look on Taehyung's face, seeing him breaking bit by bit when it took him years to pick up his every broken piece and mend them patiently and desperately with his constant comfort.

How will he comfort him again? This thing will break him completely. What will he do? How will he see Taehyung in that situation without breaking down himself?

Somewhere in his heart Jimin feel like it is his fault, his fault for being so careless and not being sterner in letting Taehyung date someone when he wasn't sure about the person's loyalty.

And now when he's too deep into this shit this happens and Jimin has never been angrier on himself ever except when his brother killed himself out of depression and he wasn't able to see through his pain and to save him from doing that.

Jimin sobbing silently outside the room, palms tightly muffling his cries of regret and fury, his chest clogging up to made him difficult to breathing.

But he had to tell Taehyung, had to tell him the truth behind that mask of love, had to let him see through the cloth of love on his eyes blinding him from seeing the brutal truth by Jungkook's foolishness, he had to show his real face to Taehyung.

He can't let Taehyung stand behind the darkness and let Jungkook play with his innocent heart and mind and fooling him by his lies.

Jimin takes a deep intake of breath and harshly wipes his tears, he sniffles and takes away all the traces of him crying stupidly, and nodded his head.

He had to be strong...he had to be strong to address Taehyung. He can't manage to break down when he has to make his heart bigger to comfort his baby brother.

He knocks on the door and pushes the handle down, entering the room after taking a deep breath.

Taehyung was standing in front of the mirror when Jimin enters causing the younger to turns around with a confused frown on his face.

"Chim? Why are you here so early?" Taehyung asks confusion lacing his tone.

Jimin didn't say anything and looks down, dread creeps into him and he shut his eyes tightly.

He was so scared...so so scared.

"Chimmy? Answer me. Your shift doesn't end for another two hours. Why are you here so early?" Taehyung asks, turning back towards the mirror to stare at what he was doing before Jimin came.

"T-Tae...I have to tell you something"

Taehyung hummed. "Yes, what is it? I wanna tell you something too!" He said excitedly, a boxy smile appearing on his face as he turns wholly to Jimin's and walks towards him.

"Let me be the first, I can't hold it in anymore!" He squealed.

Jimin breathes deeply and shakes his head desperately, trying to deny and to speaks first but Taehyung didn't let him.

"Tae no first listen to m—"

"You know how I went on a date tonight?" Taehyung started excitedly, not minding Jimin as he decided to tell first then listen.

"Look what my baby gave me for tonight's date gift!" The younger giddily push his hand forward to show the dangling silver bracelet on his wrist, shiny and glassy with red stones on it in the shape of roses.

"Something is written there too! Take a look at it!" Taehyung squeaked as he pushes his hands in front of his friend's face for him to see.

Jimin unwillingly looked at the bracelet and sighs as he looks what was crafted there in the center with cursive writing.

Baby ♡  Petal

Taehyung giggles. "I swear he always has new ideas about giving gifts to me! Every time something is so unique yet so beautiful! My baby" he gushes out with the widest grin on his face.

He smiles, again running back towards the mirror and admire the necklace on his neck, the first-ever gift Jungkook gave him, and then to the earings dangling on his ears, so pretty and it looks so captivating on him, then down to the bracelet his newest addition to his lover's gifts.

They had gone on numerous dates but not a date goes without Jungkook giving him presents with flowers, he has gotten so many flowers, chocolates, cakes, clothes, shoes, jewelry as gifts that he was now spoiled and always in anticipation of the new gift he will get whenever they go on dates.

Jimin was contemplating, really deep in his thoughts, his eyes stuck to Taehyung's wide genuine smile that looked so good on him that Jimin's confidence wavers a bit and his words stuck in his throat.

"What were you going to say, chim? Say it, I am listening" Taehyung said as he picks up the medium-sized bouquet he got from Jungkook tonight, they were tulips.

He admired the petals and caressed them softly, relishing in the smell that oozes out of him.

Jimin took in a harsh breath and speaks. "I..ah..um...do—do you know J-Jungkook's full name?" He asks instead, throat had a large pile causing him to speaks shakily and breathlessly.

Taehyung frowned and looks back at Jimin. "Huh? What?" He chuckled. "Why so sudden?"

Jimin swallowed harshly. "Just tell me, do you know?"

Taehyung opens his mouth to tell but then pouts as he remembers he doesn't know what Jungkook's surname is.

Taehyung hissed as suddenly his head pounds and few images of the night he spends with Jungkook a week ago, drinking for the first time enters his mind.

He remembers asking him and also Jungkook's lips moving as he was telling him something but he can't hear it as it was all still foggy, he gets a glimpse of that night from time to time.

"I..um don't remember actually" Taehyung rubs his nape sheepishly. "But why you asking?"

Jimin sighs in disappointment and looks down. "Nothing"

Taehyung furrowed his eyebrows but then shrugged and get back to admiring the flowers with a sweet smile on his face.

Jimin looks at Taehyung's innocent smile which was screaming his utter happiness but all Jimin can see is the fakeness of the reason behind it.

Jungkook was betraying this innocent heart and Jimin was losing his mind.

No, he can't let this happen further anymore.

"Tae" he calls and moves forward, standing in front of Taehyung now as he holds his arms. "I...what I am going to say now, listen to it calmly ok? Just—Just remember I am here always and will never leave you ok?"

Taehyung frowns deepens as he now stares at Jimin confusingly. "Chim, what is it? Why are you looking like someone caught you masturbating to Yoongi's picture that he sends you?" He laughs loudly after that, trying to calm his anxious friend who glares at him hard.

"Tae! This is serious!" Jimin said firmly, eyes serious and expressionless.

"Ok ok! Sorry" Taehyung shut up immediately after the glare directed towards him.

"I..what I wanted to say...is...is that..." Jimin couldn't find the words to express.

"I... Jungkook is...is not—not what you—"

Ringing...

Jimin stopped abruptly as the loud sound of a ringtone blasted in the room, although it wasn't that loud it made the anxious panic male flinched harshly.

Taehyung looks back towards the bed where his phone was lit up as he smiles apologetically at him. "Just a minute"

Jimin shakes his head going to stop the younger and tell him the truth right then and there before he cowers away again but Taehyung already slipped from his hold and picks up the phone when he sees who was on the caller.

My baby bun ♥️✨ calling...

"Tae wait!" Jimin tried to stop but Taehyung was too excited to listen to him and turns back to sheepishly smiles at him and gestures him to wait for a few minutes.

"Hey kookie!" He chirped. "Already missing me, huh?" Jimin felt dread and fury bubbling in his body.

"P-Petal?"

Taehyung frowns as he hears the shaky voice of his lover.

"What's wrong, Kookie?" He asks in slight concern.

Jungkook closes his eyes tightly and shakes his head, feeling on edge and fear as he tightly clung to the railing on the balcony and sighs deeply yet the burden that on his chest didn't dare to cease even a bit.

"I—I love you....you know that, right?" Jungkook said, a desperateness in his tone.

"I know, baby. I love you too! Did you just call me to say how much you love me? Jeez, Kookie! You're so dramatic" Taehyung giggles as he fiddles with the necklace.

Jimin looks down and bites his bottom lips, the tears slowly roll down his cheeks, his hands fisted tightly, nails digging into his palms as he realizes what he was going to do.

He was going to take away this happiness from Taehyung, no matter what, Jungkook still loves him sincerely and Jimin saw it, he saw it with his own eyes how the fondness and love drip from the mafia's eyes when he stares at Taehyung.

How—How much he cares for Taehyung, Love Taehyung from his heart, it is obvious in the difference of his way of talking and tone, the way his voice always softens and becomes gentle, how only Taehyung is allowed to make him smile, how only one stare made Jungkook's face lit up into the stars.

Jimin had seen everything, hear every time Taehyung comes home be it from a date or his work, his hands will always be filled with flowers and face will be adorning a wide smile Jimin never saw Taehyung this happy ever.

He was going to snatch it from him, how could he? How can he be so foolish to do that to his Taetae?

Sure he will make sure Jungkook gets his lesson for lying to Taehyung but directly confronting Taehyung will not make anything better.

He has to talk to Jungkook first before he reveals it to Taehyung.

Maybe—Maybe the older had a reason for hiding it.

Jungkook shuddered as he said breathlessly. "No..no no petal...listen to me clearly when I say I really really love you, huh?"

Taehyung smiles and hummed. "I know, Kookie"

"No! You're not understanding! I am telling you I love you...I love you so much... don't—don't doubt on it ever, ok?" Jungkook at this point losing his sanity as this bugging feeling never leaving him even after hearing Taehyung confessing back to him.

"I will never doubt on your love, Kookie. Why are you sounding so terrified all of a sudden? Is everything fine?" Taehyung was starting to worry.

Jimin stumbles back, his stare stuck to Taehyung's back as his eyes widen a bit.

What if they saw me? And Jungkook is scared now that I will tell Taehyung about his identity as a mafia?

Jimin muffled his sobs as he shakes his head, realizing Jungkook is a liar but a genuine lover to Taehyung.

He can't do this to them...

So the only thing Jimin can do is to turn around on his jelly legs and walk out of the room hurriedly without making a sound.

Jimin was devasted, doesn't know if he's doing the right thing or not by not telling Taehyung yet but at this moment this is the only thing he can think of right now.

Jungkook slid down on the floor and rests his back on the railing, he no longer could able to stand this anxiety burning in him, his breathing cutting short as he tries to calm his drumming heartbeats.

"Yes... yes, everything's fine...I just—just miss you...miss you so much" he muttered, eyes closing as he hears a soothing sound of his petal's laughter.

"We were together just, like an hour before and you already missing me this much, hm? What I am gonna do with you"

Jungkook buried his hand on his hairs, tugging them, and sighs loudly. "Just—Just love me... that's all I want"

"That I already do...like so much, baby"

"Will, you able to do it...do it forever?"

"Will do forever" he promised.

Jungkook hate, hate the way he couldn't believe those promises, hate the way it worsened his situation and making him shakes in fear.

Fear of losing his heart which Taehyung owns.

"I love you, pup... believe me...I really love you so much...I won't be... won't be able to live without... without you..." Jungkook just couldn't stop himself from making Taehyung believe he really does love him a lot and what importance he has in his life.

He's desperate to make Taehyung believe that whatever lie he says to him, his love has always been genuine and undying.

"Kookie? You're worrying me. Please tell me what's wrong, huh? You know I am here, right?"

"I know...was just missing you a lot." He sighs deeply. "You know you're really my heart, sometimes I feel like it will stop beating... if you leave me"

"Baby! Don't say that" Taehyung scolds causing Jungkook to chuckle.

"Sorry...I just love you dearly, with all my heart..." Jungkook looks down.

Taehyung blushed, hearing so many I love you's from Jungkook making him flustered and the fact they all sound so sincere and deep makes his heart skips a beat and filled his stomach with tingles.

"Pup?" Taehyung hummed.

"....I am scared"

Taehyung furrowed his eyebrows. "Scared? Why?"

"Scared...Scared to lose you" he throws his head back to the railing, letting the coldness of it touch his stressing head and numbs it so he can be at peace.

Taehyung breathes out loudly. "Kookie, you won't lose me, baby. Don't be scared. I am here, I'll always be there"

Jungkook chuckles and nods. "Ok...I believed it"

"Good" Taehyung smiles.

________________________

It was when more than two hours gone by that Yoongi realize that today Jimin didn't come to greet him yet.

He was still in his office, sitting in his swirling chair with hands rubbing his temples in slight worry for his friend.

Jeon had gone long before saying he wanted to be alone for a while and told him to not disturb him until tomorrow and Yoongi agreed, knowing Jeon liked his space and privacy so convincing him to be with him for a while more for comfort wasn't an option.

Now that the mafia boss was alone and under stress, he needed his lover by his side for his comfort.

Thus he dials in his intercom as he was a bit concern about not seeing Jimin which is odd as the younger would come barging inside his office the minute he gets on his break or sometimes he didn't even wait for his break—such a brat.

"Hello, boss" A polite tone sounded on the other side.

"Haechan, send Min—I mean send park Jimin in my office"

"But Jimin is not here, boss"

Yoongi frowned. "What do you mean? He didn't come to the club tonight?"

"No, he was there and also went towards your office too so I thought you would know?" Haechan was confused.

"He came to my office?" Yoongi's frown deepens.

"Yes, boss but I don't know what happen he came back with tears and ran outside the club. I tried to call him but he didn't hear and ran away, then he never came back."

"And when all this happened?"

"Ahh...I think it's been a maximum of two hours already that he ran away"

Dread filled Yoongi's body as he cut the call instantly with widen eyes and wildly beating heart.

"Shit!"

He stands up abruptly and paces back and forth in his office. "Shit shit shit" he rubbed his face aggressively and throws his chair in anger, eyes raging in fear and tension and hands trembles in worry as he shouted.

"He heard it! He heard everything! He freaking saw Jungkook! Fucking shit!"
