Lunch with the new boss

Haeun was devastated when he received a call from Kim Namjoon telling him to transfer Jin to their office. He knew, once in, there is no way out. How could he bring this news to Jin?

"Are you serious?" Jin called out looking at Haeun. Not able to look Jin in the eyes, Haeun nodded fiddling with the envelope in his hands. "That's awesome" Jin exclaimed with a big smile. Surprised Haeun lifted his head giving Jin a questioning look. Jin composed himself, "I mean... I love working with you uncle, you know that. It's just... umm... ahm..." clearing his throat, "uncle, have you seen them? Jungkook, he looks like out of this world and his friends are.." feeling the tension subsiding he continued, "I mean, of course they aren't as handsome as I am... but" both men started laughing. Haeun took Jin's both hands in his, "please be careful Jin, don't trust anyone and if you need me, I will always be here for you." "Ahh, do you really wanna make me cry" Jin said blinking away the tears and hugging his uncle. 

Jin got picked up by a driver and brought to Euphoria headquarters. He got welcomed by Namjoon and Hoseok showing him around and introducing him to people he will work with. After few hours of walking and handshaking he was finally sitting at the desk in his office. Ms Fee, his assistant knocked on the door and stepped in, announcing Mr Jeon was on his way here.

Now Jin was wondering which Jeon, he hoped it would be the younger one, with finger crossed. As Jungkook entered his office, Jin stood up and bowed to him, "good morning Mr Jeon." "Oh please Seokjin, I'm not my father, call me Jungkook" he said ogling the other. "I hope you like your new office" "yes it's great, thank you", Jin replied. "I want you to join me, Namjoon and Yoongi for lunch."

Jin, not used to this tone, arching an eyebrow, 'hm ordering me again not asking'. He wasn't sure if it was politically smart move to decline lunch with his boss on the first day but he made plans with Jimin. Biting his bottom lip he breathed out, "I'm sorry sir... I mean Jungkook but I already planned lunch with my best friend." Jungkook gave him an intimidating stare, 'is he for real, I don't give a shit if he has plans or not, I'm his fucking boss' clenching the fists in his pockets he said, "he's welcome to join us, it would be a pleasure to meet your friend."

Jin texted Jimin the changes and where to meet them for lunch. In the high class restaurant, they were guided to a private room and the manager himself took care of them. The door opened and Jimin came in, bowed respectfully and walked over to Jin. 'So this is Park Jimin his best friend' Jungkook gave him a glance. Yoongi, more interested checking Jimin out, 'not bad, I'm sure Hoseok and Tae wouldn't mind him joining us' a smirk appearing on his face. Namjoon looked at Jimin and his jaw dropped, blinking his eyes few times, he thought, 'is he for real, he looks even better than on the photos' showing his dimples. Hugging his best friend, Jin was just happy Jimin wasn't late.

Namjoon couldn't take his eyes off of Jimin and it seemed Jimin too had difficulties to concentrate on anyone else then Namjoon. During the lunch Namjoon wasn't his normal self, he was nervous and clumsy, knocking over a glass and spilling the water all over the table. Later pushing his chair back, breaking one of the chair's legs and almost kissing the floor with his bottom. Following by cutting the steak, he seriously managed to break the plate. Yoongi and Jungkook looked at each other suspiciously and then at Jin, wondering if he's influencing Namjoon somehow. Glaring back at Namjoon they could see red color spreading across his face. 'Is he sick? No that's impossible, we never get sick' both Jungkook and Yoongi thought.

The awkward lunch finally came to an end and as they were saying their goodbyes to Jimin, Namjoon offered to drive him back to his dance studio. Jin was about to say that it wasn't necessary, the studio was just around the corner but Jimin elbowed him and said, "thank you Namjoon-sshi, I'd love that." Seeing Jimin's smile, Namjoon couldn't help himself then smile back. Before Jungkook or Yoongi could protest, he grabbed Jimin's hand and they left.
