"Hobi, these contracts look really good, they definitely work in your favor, I highlighted the things you should consider changing though", I say handing him the folder. "Our new prototype is in high demand already, we haven't even showcased them yet, so let's make sure these buyers know exactly what they are paying for", he says. 

My phone rings and looking at the screen, "it's Namjoon." I answer it, putting it on speaker, "Joon what's up, how are things, Hobi is here too." "Hey guys, things aren't so great here, that's why I called. Jin, would you be able to come a couple days earlier than you planned, I think Jungkook might be in trouble, and you are the only one he might talk to", he says sounding worried.

"Of course, is the wedding still on. I can leave this afternoon and be there this evening", I say. "Yes, the wedding is still on, but I think there is something wrong that he isn't telling us", he says. "Jin and I are taking my plane so we can be there in a few hours", Hoseok say. "Thanks guys, you really are the greatest", Namjoon says. 

"About time you figured that out", I laugh. He chuckles, "see you both soon." "I'll put these contracts in your safe and we will deal with them when we come back", I say grabbing the folder and opening Hobi's safe. "Thank you, let's finish this up, then head home and pack", he says.

We board Hobi's plane about an hour later, stowing our bags and picking our seats. I buckle in and send Namjoon a quick text before we take off letting him know we are on our way. A few minutes into the flight Hobi is asleep next to me as I work on my laptop. He works very long hours so any sleep he can get is a good thing, but sitting here in silence I can't stop thinking about Jungkook.

I had a crush on him, even though I knew it was wrong, Im older than him by 7 years. Myself, Namjoon, and Hoseok, all went to school together. We met in the 7th grade, went thru high school together and then attended the same university. Four boys from the trailer park all became very successful. Namjoon and I went on to become lawyers, he went into family law and I went into corporate law. When Hoseok patented his first prototype for a long range tracking device and sold it for millions, he hired me as his lawyer.

Being friends with Namjoon, I saw Jungkook a lot, and as he got older, the more handsome he became, the more I fell for him. I thought moving away to work with Hobi would help me forget all about the feelings I had for him, but it didn't. When Joon told us he was getting married my heart broke knowing that someone else would be loving him and protecting him. I dont blame Jungkook, he never knew how I felt about him and I know he didn't look at me that way, but now something is bothering him and I wonder why Joon thinks Kook will talk to only me.

About an hour later we land at the tiny airport just outside of the city and Hobi has a car waiting for us. "Joon said there is plenty of room at the house that we can stay there", he says. Namjoon and Jungkook's dad is a doctor and when their mom died a few years ago their dad didn't have the heart to sell the family home, it's huge, not mansion status but pretty close. We stayed there a lot as kids, and a few times after college, so we all basically have our own rooms.

We arrive at the Jeon's a little while later and nothing has changed, it all looks the same from when we were kids. The front door opens and Namjoon comes bounding down the steps, "holy shit, I've missed you guys." "I keep telling you to come work for me and you won't do it", Hoseok tells him while being bear hugged. 

"I couldn't leave my dad and Kook, but now that he is getting married and living here with his husband, maybe I'll take you up on that offer", Namjoon says. Every time I hear that he sounds happy and is getting married it makes my heart hurt just a bit more, it was better he didn't know my feelings, but sometimes I wonder if things would be different if he did.

We carry our suitcases into the house and Namjoon says that our rooms are ready for us. I head upstairs and throw my suitcases on the bed. "Hey", Joon says leaning against the door frame. "We are going to dinner tonight with Jungkook's fiance and his family, you will come won't you", he asks nervously. "What's going on Joon, what is wrong with Jungkook and why do you think he will talk to me", I ask.

 "He seems really distant, closed off, he has always been sort of an introvert, but it seems worse now, and he's even stopped painting", he says with a hint of worry in his voice. "What does he say when you ask him about it", I ask. "That he is fine and that he is happy", Joon says. "Why do you think he will talk to me", I ask again, my curiosity has the better of me. He shrugs, "just a feeling, you are the easiest person I know to talk to, you always have been and he's always looked up to you."

Later on that evening, Hobi, Joon and I arrive at the restaurant and see that everyone else is there already. I see Jungkook and when he sees me his eyes light up. "Jin Hyung, Hobi Hyung, you are here", he says smiling, but I notice it doesn't reach his eyes "Hi Jungkook, how have you been", Hoseok asks. 

We sit while their dad introduces everyone, that's when I notice Jungkook's fiance glaring at me, then looking away to put a fake smile on his face. What is up with this asshole, and why does Jungkook look so timid next to him. I grab my napkin and shake it out, dropping it on the floor. I lean down to pick it up and look under the table to see the asshole literally squeezing Jungkook's thigh hard.

Conversation was more between Jungkook's dad and his fiance's dad. I was to busy watching Jungkook and his fiance not interact with each other to pay attention . He acts like Jungkook isn't even here at all, and when he gets up to use the bathroom I follow behind him a moment later. I walk toward the bathroom when I see the asshole, what was his name again Robert, he was talking on his cell. I walk closer and duck around the corner from where he was to listen. My blood boils when I hear his conversation. "No baby, I am at a stupid dinner, I have to play nice until the wedding, then after the ceremony we can take everything and run away, leaving these idiots clueless", he says with venom in his voice
