a/n: Sorry for the long wait!!

Buckle up bois, it's a wild ride

Yoongi asked Hobi the next morning if he wanted a ride over to Seokjin's place, but when the male hadn't answered any of his texts or calls, he decided to head over to Hoseok's place to check. It was on the way anyways, but Hoseok didn't answer Yoongi's knocks on the door either.

Yoongi frowned, something was off. A pit of dread started to form in his gut. "Hobi?" He called out again, but to no avail. Without sparing another second, he sped over to Seokjin's place, praying that Hoseok was already there. He couldn't be missing, he couldn't.

"Ugh, Hobi hyung thank god you saved me from being third—" Jimin stopped short when he saw it was Yoongi's face at the door. "O—oh Detective Min, hi." Jimin greeted awkwardly.

Yoongi's frown deepened, "Hoseok isn't here yet?" he said as way of greeting. Jimin shook his head, Seokjin and Namjoon's heads poked out from behind him.

"I just went to his place because he wasn't answering my calls, and no one was there." Yoongi explained, the sickening feeling in his gut intensifying. This wasn't like Hoseok.

Seokjin's expression fell, "That's not good at all, we should go check on him." The three of them made to leave, but Yoongi stopped them.

"I just came from there, and no one answered the door. I don't think he's in there."

Seokjin gave the detective a look, "No offense, Detective Min, but maybe he just doesn't want to see you? Jimin and I, we've been friends with him for a long time now, I'm sure if he's there he'll open the door for us."

Yoongi wasn't sure if that helped his worrying at all. "I don't think it's a good idea for you to leave Seokjin-ssi, you're still under our protection, so we can't—"

"While I appreciate it and all," Seokjin started, "I feel like you don't have another choice, officer. If Hoseok's not opening up to you, I'm sure he'll open up for me. And if your job is to protect me, then protect me." His voice left no room for argument. Yoongi, slightly stunned by the man's forwardness, let Seokjin and Jimin walk around him out the door. Namjoon's eyes followed Seokjin in awe. Yoongi could practically see the hearts in his eyes.

"Oh man, you're whipped." Yoongi stated as Namjoon stepped out to lock the door.

He sighed, "You have no idea."

They made it to Hobi's apartment in record time. Seokjin and Jimin knocking loudly on the door, calling Hobi to come out. Five minutes passed, no body answered.

"I told you he isn't here." Yoongi said, voice gruff. Jimin was starting to panic, his knocks turning more into bangs until Seokjin stopped his hand from hitting the door.

"At that rate you're going to punch a hole right through it." Seokjin said, Jimin looked at him worriedly.

"Where is he, hyung?"

Seokjin spun in a little circle, looking at the floor. "Maybe he left a spare key somewhere..."

"You really think Hobi hyung would leave a spare key? The guy won't use a peephole because he's convinced the person outside the door can see him, and you think he'd leave a key to his place just lying around?"

"Well I don't know, Jimin, we're kind of desperate here!" The brothers bickered back and forth but Yoongi's attention was caught by the door opening in front of them.

"Hoseok!" Yoongi called, barreling past the oblivious quarreling brothers. They filed in quickly behind him—only to find there was no one was there.
