...Mafia"

That word roamed in your head. 

"You...what...?" You asked, confirming if whatever you just heard was right. 

"Yes...I'm sorry" He looked down. "S-So what now..."

"I know you're mad. I won't stop you from b-breaking up with me...if that's what's gonna make you feel better. 

You were tongue tied.

He turned to leave the room to give you space to think about your relationship with him. Once he reached the door frame, he turned to look at your figure. Tears were brimming in your eyes. He looked at you as if this was the last time he saw you. He was savoring you.

"I'm sorry" He walked out.

You looked around. Pictures of you and him-- which you had put up--were staring back at you. A small smile captured your face but soon faded.

You'd been surrounded by mafias all your life. Jin, Namjoon, Yoongi, Hoseok, their teams, business partners, How was Jungkook different?

Were you gonna leave him...What were you gonna do?

Wait... 

You knew exactly what you had to do. You ran out of the room, looking for him. You found him on the terrace, Massaging either side of his forehead with his thumb and index finger.

"Jungkook..." You called out. He snapped his body towards you. He was clearly stressed.

"I love you...I'm astonished after knowing the truth. But I love you...too much to even leave...although I know the truth..."

The wind fanned your hair. Everything was going slo-mo

It felt like you two were the only ones in the world...and it was the best feeling ever.

"I- I love you too" He hugged you...super tight. "I thought we...we were gonna-

"No don't say it."

You placed your lips on his soft ones. His lips moved in sync with yours as you could feel his heartbeat. You wanted to cry but you were too happy to. Your relationship was saved.

It was perfect. The street lights shone brightly on your face. 

The dark purple and blue sky surrounded the full moon. Stars smiled upon you. Children were returning to their homes...Wait.............

Your eyes widened as you pulled away quickly. 

"I-I need to go!" You turned around. "Wait lemme drop you. It's late."

"It's 8 pm......"

"Exactly." 

"But you're stressed already. I really don't want to add up."

"You won't...let's go" 

"No, stay"

"No, I'm coming with"

"No, you're staying home"

"No, I'm dropping you"

"I'm not letting you"

"Well, guess what, I am anyway"

He picked you up and started walking towards the door. You hit his body, begging him to put you down. 

You both reach his car.  

He finally put you down and opened the car door wide open.

A pouting you was lift up...again...and placed on the car seat.

He entered from the other side and started driving.

You both were in comfortable silence. You rested your head on the window.

He took your hand that was resting on your lap and caressed it with his thumb.

"You're tired from all the ruckus today, aren't you?" You sighed, nodding.

 "I'm so sorry...I really am..." His eyes were fixated on the road. He really did seem sorry. And knowing Jungkook, this was huge. 

You smiled warmly.

"I know this was all a mistake...but...who were you looking for?...and most importantly...why...?" That question roamed around in your head...and just dropped on your tongue.

"Now's not the right time Y/n...I promise I will tell you everything once this mess is cleared up...I promise..."

--

You walked a block to reach your house. You rang the bell. 

A maid opened the door...except...something was fishy. Your eyebrows clashed together. "Everything okay? You seem worried?"

She nodded and hurried inside. 

You walked in and were greeted by your brothers, your uncle, Yoongi, Hoseok and your cousin. They didn't seem to notice you...

...Because they were busy talking about something that seemed extremely crucial. All of them sat with frowns on their faces.

"Uncle? Joyu unnie? When did you guys come here?" You smiled, dropping your bag on the couch

All 6 pairs of eyes were gazing at you...2 angry ones, specifically. 

"8:30...is this the time to come home?" Jin gazed right into your soul with burning eyes.

"Y/n, you're literally taking advantage of us, at this point" Namjoon scoffed. Clearly, he was much more calm, patient and understanding than Jin...but that did not mean he never got angry.

"Look kid...3 months back, it was school from home, and home from school for you...You had absolutely no freedom. And until 8th grade, you were homeschooled. I was the one who forced them to change these systems...but now, I kind of regret it..." Your uncle said, confusing you.

"What?" You asked. 

"My point is, your brothers have allowed everything...but they did set some ground rules...and you really need to follow them. Your curfew time is 7...7:30 max. You're 1 and a half hour late. Do you know how worried they were? Your phone was off, they ended up calling us cause they were scared." Your uncle explained.

"But I did text them that I was gonna reach home soon! I was so caught up, I didnt realize the ti-"

"That's the problem...you never do!" Jin raised his voice. "Hyung!"

Yoongi stopped him before he could go further.

"No Yoongi hyung...don't stop him today, he's not wrong" Namjoon butted in. 

"Yes because I'm the only wrong one around here, ya?" You scoffed. "As a matter of fact, yes, you are!" Jin remarked. "Y/n...not always but today, what you did wasn't right..."

"Wha- You too Hobi oppa?!" You looked at him in disbelief.

"He's just supporting what's right, Y/n!" Yoongi retorted. It was a mess. Everyone was bickering. 

But was it your fault? A few apologies for being late would've solved everything...what was this for?

"ENOUGH" A loud yell erupted your uncle's mouth. "Fighting like dogs and Cats" He spat. "Y/n, Room...NOW" You were scared...but tried not to show it.

"Gladly" You turned around and ran, mumbling under your breathe.

Joyu ran behind you, calling your name but you ignored.

You huffed and sat on your bed while Joyu placed herself beside you.

You trust her alot...she knew all your little and big secrets. But not having met her in the longest of time, you couldn't tell her about Jungkook.

But now you were going to.

"Where were you...be honest with me, Y/n-ah..."

"Unnie...dont overreact...but I have a secret that no one knows..."

"What is it, Y/n...?" She sighed.

"I...I have a boyfriend..."
