Angel (Yoongi x Reader)

Chapter 24

Y/N POV:

"Someone... why would... what did I do?" Jungkook's admittance that someone wanted to kill me scared the hell out me. I don't know why I was surprised. It was just one more unlucky event in my sorry life.

Jungkook shrugged but his eyes were worried. "I... I don't know doll. The information we got came from an anonymous source." He ran a hand through his hair. "We don't know who and we don't know why."

I sighed at his words, wondering what was going to happen to me now.

"Don't get caught up in your head. We will protect you. I promise. I will keep you safe. No one is going to hurt you." Jungkook's words were filled with confidence and for some reason it made me feel a little better.

"Is Yoongi's girlfriend going to come after me again?" I know he said she wasn't his girlfriend, but the girl kept insisting that she was, threatening me to try and keep me away from him.

Jungkook scoffed at my question. "Soren? That crazy bitch? She is definitely not Yoongi's girlfriend and as far as coming after you again? I'll be surprised if she makes it through the night."

Jungkook's words surprised me. "What... what do you mean?" Why would something happen to her?

"Let's just say Jimin is furious that she came after you. He's been given free rein to... take care of the problem." Jungkook gave me a reassuring smile. "She won't get near you again. I promise you that."

"Why would Jimin be mad?"

Patting my shoulder, Jungkook grinned at me, his boy next-door smile causing me to relax a little. "You've caught Jimin's attention. Unlike anyone else has ever been able to. He's willing to go to any lengths to keep you protected."

I didn't know what to say, his words completely surprising me. Why would Jimin want to protect me? Why would he care?

Jungkook looked down at his phone then stood. "I've got to get going. Namjoon is going to come and see you in a little bit." Jungkook ran a hand down my hair then bent down and kissed my cheek, making me flush bright red and him grin. "Don't worry doll. You'll be safe from now on."

With a last wave and a wink, Jungkook exited the room, leaving me stunned and off balance. He was one of the ones that scared me the most but for some reason, my fear of him was starting to decrease. I don't know if it was his gentle touches or the fact that he was willing to tell me just what was going on, even though he probably wasn't supposed to. It gave me a sense of security, one that I shouldn't really trust myself to have, but at the same time, I couldn't help it.

Lost in thought, I didn't even notice how much time had passed by. The late afternoon sun had faded, leaving the room filled with a pretty golden glow from the setting sun. Not wanting to lay in the bed any longer, I carefully got to my feet, the pain from the stab wound was painful, but not unbearably so. I made my way over to the window, catching the last rays of the sunset as it slowly dropped below the horizon.

"Y/N? What are you doing out of bed?" A voice had me turning towards the door, a concerned looking Namjoon standing there with a book in his hand. He hurried into the room and, in an instant, had an arm around my waist, gently guiding me to Yoongi's bed. "You shouldn't be moving around by yourself yet. You don't want to rip the stitches Jin had to put in."

I sighed but sat back down. "I can't lay in this bed anymore. The boredom is killing me. I'm not used to not being able to move around, of being idle. Since I've been here, that's all I've been able to do." My last words came out sadder than I intended and I could see the compassion cross Namjoon's face.
