BTS Imagines 3

Jungkook ♡ Bodyguard AU [request]

This is a series requested by @insertnameaquiii

My shoes thumped lightly against the pavement as I made my way home after picking up some food to bring home for my dad and I. I wasn't necessarily in a hurry to get back, especially since the weather was superb; warm with a slight breeze blowing. I really wanted to just enjoy the scenery. This is the first time dad has allowed me out on my own. It's freeing, in a way. He's usually so protective of me and won't let me go anywhere without him, but not today.

I took in a deep breath, letting it out with a long, "Ahhhh." as I strutted leisurely down the sidewalk.
I just so happened to turn my head, noticing someone walking behind me. I didn't think much of it, assuming it was just a pedestrian on their way home or to a nearby business.
As I continued down the street, I couldn't shake off a strange feeling. Glancing behind me, I saw the same man still trailing me.
Am I being followed?
I sped up my pace, panic rising within me.
This is just perfect. The first day I'm allowed out on my own and some creep starts following me.
Does he recognize who I am? Has he been keeping an eye on me and decided to make his move now that I'm alone?
I turned my head, seeing that the darkly dressed man was still on my tail, walking faster to keep up.
It was in that moment that I went into full panic mode, breaking out into a sprint and hightailing it home. I knew I wasn't far, if I could run fast enough, I could make it.

I took a sharp turn, booking it down my street until I arrived at my large home where I started banging on the door. I watched as the masked man hurried down the road, coming my way.
"Dad open the door it's me!" I yelled.
The door was pulled agape within seconds. I didn't even greet my father as I ran inside, nearly knocking him over.
"Dad help! Someone's following me!" I shrieked.
My dad furrowed his brows momentarily and it almost seemed like he wasn't worried at all.
"Ah." He nodded. "Seems you've met Jungkook."
"Who's Jungkook."
"Me."
I jumped, spinning around to see the masked man standing behind me in the open doorway.
"That's him!" I pointed, cowering away.
My father let out a resounding laugh in response.
"Y/n, he's your bodyguard." He informed me as his laughter died down.
"Bodyguard?" I exploded. "I thought you let me out on my own today because you trusted me?"
"I do trust you. What I don't trust is creeps who have sick fantasies about you and want to harm you." He stated. "You need protection."
I glanced at the male I now know as Jungkook, who was taking off his hat, dark hair spilling over his brown eyes. He pulled his mask off revealing the rest of his features. Bringing his hand up, he raked his fingers through his hair, pushing it out of his face a bit.
I blinked a couple times, unable to take my eyes off of him, his looks quite literally leaving me speechless.
"So, you got the food." My dad spoke up.
"Ah. Yes I did." I held the bag up.
"Great. Jungkook will be joining us."
"What?"
"Yes. That's why I got three orders this time instead of two."
"Ah. Now it makes sense." I nodded. "Well, I hope the food isn't shook up too bad. It had a rough ride here."
"Food is food." Jungkook stated as we all made our way to the kitchen.
I set the large bag of takeout on the table and went to the kitchen to get silverware for the three of us.
"What would everyone like to drink?" I asked.
"You don't have to do that, dear." My dad stated. "You two go ahead and start eating. I'll get drinks."
"Alright. I'd like a soda, please. It doesn't matter which one." I told him.
"What about you, Jungkook?"
"Coke, please."
My dad nodded and left the room.
I looked over at Jungkook who was pulling the styrofoam containers from the bag.

I can't say I'm too thrilled about having a bodyguard, but at least my dad doesn't have to be attached to me all the time anymore. I'll be able to have a little more freedom than usual.

Jungkook slid one of the boxes over to me, giving a small friendly smile as he did so.
"Thanks."
He hummed in response.
"So, when did all this happen?" I asked, gesturing to the air.
"About a week ago. Your dad went looking for bodyguards and hand-picked me from a list of possible hires." He explained.
"Ah." I nodded, opening my container of food.
"You're probably wondering why I invited Jungkook to stay for dinner." My dad stated, entering the dining room.
"Sort of." I hummed as he placed a can of soda in front of me.
"I wanted you two to get acquainted, especially since you'll be seeing each other more often."
"That makes sense." I nodded. "So, how did you find Jungkook?"
"Me and a whole team of guys searched for the most highly trained men in Seoul, then we picked only the best of the best and had them put in an application if they were interested in the job; Jungkook was one of them. He was also the most impressive and the most qualified for the job. He's worked for some of the biggest celebrities, not to mention he's jacked. He's wearing long sleeves so you can't see, but this boy has some impressive muscles."
"Dad." I hissed.
"I'm just saying. You're in very good hands."
"Please." I begged, my head dropping from embarrassment.
"It's fine." Jungkook chuckled. "I appreciate your bragging on me, truly. However, I'm just thankful to be able to have this job."
"So humble. I like that." Dad grinned, popping the top on his soda.
I chewed my food, glancing over at Jungkook who seemed preoccupied with the grilled meat in front of him.
"So, you said Jungkook and I would be seeing each other often. What does that mean? How often will he be coming around?" I inquired.
"Every time you go out." Dad answered.
"So, if I wanna go somewhere I have to wait for him to get here?"
"Actually, Jungkook lives close by. He can be here within five minutes." He stated. "That's another reason why I hired him."
"I'm impressed." I nodded, turning to Jungkook who just shrugged.
