Your eyes were cold and stern as you glared at Namjoon, jaw clenching at his words.

You were containing yourself. You weren't going to give him the satisfaction of showing him how his words effected you.

Yoongi watched your reaction with widened eyes, swallowing hard as the silence around all of you became thick and heavy. He wished he knew what was going on in your mind, he wished that he could understand what you were feeling.

Namjoon raised an eyebrow in amusement as he watched Yoongi begin to unravel silently, desperately waiting to hear your response to the dirty blond's accusations.

"How?"

Yoongi's eyes snapped up at the question that fell from your lips as you looked to Namjoon.

"He has cameras in your apartment. He watched from his laptop...I have connections at the police department. Their hackers broke into Yoongi's system and found years worth of footage. I can show you, if you'd like."

You clenched your fists.

"No." You gritted.

Yoongi frowned at your lack of reaction, his hands moving to touch you.

You jerked away from him wordlessly, taking a deep breath before facing the men that surrounded you, each one wearing an expression of curiosity as they watched you silently fume.

"Whatever Yoongi may or may not have done is irrelevant." You spat out.

Jin's eyes widened as he took a step forward.

"You can't be serious." He said. "He's been spying on you. Invading your privacy and you-"

"And you kidnapped me." You interrupted.

Taehyung frowned, running a hand through his blond hair.

"I can see where you're coming from, baby." He said. "But, if what Namjoon says is true, then Yoongi could be a serious danger to you."

Yoongi glared at him.

"I am not a danger to her." He growled. "I would never hurt her."

"I don't believe that for a second." Namjoon stated calmly. "How do we know that you aren't just using us to find a cure? How do we know you aren't planning to steal Y/n away as soon as she is clean?"

The blue-haired assassin pointed an accusing finger at the man before him.

"Careful, Kim." He spat. "Just because we have history does not mean that I won't slice your throat."

Namjoon smirked evilly, tilting his head upwards as he watched Yoongi's chest heaving in anger.

"I don't think we should allow him to continue helping us." Jin chimed from the side. "If he is capable of hiding something this big, who knows what else he's-"

"I'm not leaving!" Yoongi roared. "I will not leave her alone with any of you. Not even for a second!"

"I don't think that's your decision to make, Yoongi." Jimin spoke calmly from beside Jungkook, his eyes soft. "We are just trying to think about what's best for Y/n right now-"

"I am what's best for her!" He yelled. "I was the one who rescued her from all of you! I kept her safe!"

Jungkook frowned as Louis' eyes began to fill with tears of terror as he watched Yoongi grow angrier by the second.

"Yoongi, you need to calm down." He said.

The blue haired man exhaled heavily through his nose, running a hand through his hair as he nodded slowly, closing his eyes.

"We can't trust him." Jin ground out, glancing at your quiet figure.

You watched the whole ordeal in silence, eyes scanning over each of the men as you listened to them argue.

"He could compromise the entire mission. He needs to leave." He continued.

Yoongi slowly turned to face you, his eyes softening on your form as he took a step forward.

"I need to stay with you." He whispered. "None of these men care about you the way I do. They're all selfish. They want you for themselves. They don't care if you're free or not. I do."

Your eyes bore into his, watching as numerous emotions swirled in his pupils.

Letting emotion rule over common sense was stupid and irresponsible. Yoongi was the only one who would take up for you. He was the only way you were ever going to be free from The Seven. If you asked him to leave, you'd be ridding yourself of you strongest ally, but if you allowed him to stay, you'd be allowing your stalker to be close to you.

Your eyes moved away from his.

"He's staying." You deadpanned.

Namjoon's brows show up in surprise.

"Princess," Jin started. "He's dangerous-"

"No matter what he has done, he is still the only one of you that cares about what happens to me." You glared at him. "I don't know if he's just been pretending to be my friend or if he's genuinely worried. I have no way of knowing his intentions....but I know yours. I know all of yours. I'm not going to ask him to leave."

"Y/n-"

"There are more important things to worry about, Jin." You growled, trying to remain as calm as possible "We can't waste time focusing on this. I won't waste time focusing on this. We have to keep our priorities straight, fighting with one another is stupid and useless."

Yoongi couldn't help the smile that spread across his face as he watched you walk back into his bedroom, leaving no room for argument.

The rest of the men fell silent as they glanced between one another, Seokjin sending hard glares at Yoongi as the blue-haired man followed you into the room, closing the door behind him.

You stood beside the large window, arms crossed at you stared down at the bustling city below, the lights illuminating the room.

Yoongi hesitantly approached you, his hand brushing against yours.

You jerked away from him, eyes snapping to his as you glared at him.

His brows furrowed in confusion at your reaction.

"What's wrong?" He asked.

You shook your head, letting out a sarcastic chuckle as you ran a hand through your hair.

"That is a stupid question." You deadpanned. "How could you even ask me that? You know the answer."

Yoongi frowned at your words, a heavy sigh escaping his lips.

"I was going to tell you." he breathed. "I just...I couldn't find a way to bring it up...It's not exactly something you can just bring up in the middle of the conversation."

You clenched your jaw.

"I don't care." you spat. "You've been watching me for years. How do you expect me to take this information."

He nodded, moving forwards.

"I know." He stated. "I just-I didn't want you to become afraid of me. I didn't want you to run away-"

"You're beginning to sound like them." You said softly.

His eyes widened slightly at your words, head shaking.

"I didn't mean it like that."

You frowned.

"I can understand where you're coming from." You gritted. "My life was in danger and if you had told me when we had first met, I would have run and probably been kidnapped by one of those men in that living room..."

He swallowed, nodding his head.

"But, it's the principle of the whole thing." You stated. "How can I feel safe around a man that has been hiding in the shadows, watching my every move for years?"

He grabbed your hand.

"You said it yourself," He said. "I am the only one who has your interest in mind!"

You pulled your hand away from him.

"That just makes everything worse!" You yelled, loosing your cool. "You were the one that I could depend on if the rest of those men betray me, but it turns out that your intentions aren't as pure as you make them out to be either!"

"Y/n-"

"Don't!" You interrupted, breathing heavily. "I will not hold this against you, Yoongi. I can understand why you didn't tell me...but I cannot understand your actions...I cannot trust you like I used to no matter how badly you think I should."

He clenched his jaw at your words.

"I never meant for you to find out this way."

You shook your head.

"I defended you against the others because I'm not stupid enough to allow this alliance to fall through." You stated. "We need them if we are going to find a cure...but after all of this is over...I don't want to see you again."

His eyebrows jumped in surprise.

"Y/n, no." He breathed. "I only want to help you!"

You nodded.

"I know you do." You stated. "Which is why I took your side...but you cannot expect me to be okay with what you've done."

He gritted his teeth, fists clenching by his side as he nodded slowly.

"I-I understand." He spat. "I know that I screwed up..but-but if I hadn't been watching, I would have never been at Wings that night. I would have never saved you from Namjoon."

"I already told you that I understood!"You countered. "But after all of this is over, I want my life back! I can't hang around an assassin, even if you hadn't been watching me for all those years, even if I had only met you that night...I can't have a normal life when people like you are constantly around me. This was going to happen regardless."

He shook his head, eyes hardening as he took a step forward.

"That's not true and you know it." He spat out.

You frowned.

"What are you talking about?" You asked.

He took a step forward, body brushing against yours.

"That night," He started. "Before Jin took you...something was happening between us. I could feel it and I know you could too. If he hadn't showed up, we would have-"

"Stop." You interrupted. "I don't know what would have happened that night. I only know that it wouldn't have changed anything...even if we had slept together, our relationship would have ended there. We live in different worlds."

"So what?" He asked, wrapping an arm around your waist and pulling your body against his. "There's something between us and you can't deny it. I can tell by the way you kissed me."

You swallowed hard, pushing yourself away from him.

"You kill people for a living Yoongi." You stated. "You wouldn't be able to live a normal life, no matter how hard you tried."

He shook his head, pulling you back into him.

"I can protect you. I have resources. After all of this is over, you can stay here with me-"

"I don't want to stay here with you." You spat, shoving him away. "I want my life back. A few hours days ago you understood that...why are things different now?"

He clenched his jaw, squeezing his eyes shut in frustration.

"I just want you safe."

"And you think that living with an assassin is the safest thing for me?" You asked.

He shook his head.

"I think that being with me is the safest thing for you!"

You let out a sarcastic chuckle at his words, running a hand through your hair.

"You sound just like them, Yoongi...

You sound just like the others."

A/N,

Holy crap. This has just gotten real.

I love you.
