" Hyung, aren't we going to the gala? "
" We are. " Namjoon mumbles, tossing a document on the table as they gathered after dinner. Such meetings were hard to come by these days, when all of them would be physically present at the table.
Namjoon looks at the empty seat beside Taehyung that once belonged to Jimin and ignores the pain that strikes his heart yet once again, " We have a mission. "
" A mission? " Jin asked, voice smooth as he sipped on his red wine. Namjoon nods, though he wanted to object Jin shouldn't drink as they have a mission to complete, he lets the older be.
It seems like Yoongi cannot handle it though, as he gets up, snatching the glass out of Jin's hand. Another reason why meetings like these were hard to happen.
Namjoon sighs.
Neither of them were ready to come to terms with the fact that they all needed each other. He doesn't understand where he went wrong, as he sees Jin glare silently at Yoongi who gulps down the glass and slams it on the table.
" Go on, Joon. "
And 3, 2, 1....
He blinks in surprised as Jin doesn't stand up and leave. He always does that and once he does, Yoongi storms off upset, leaving the rest of them to fend to each other the crumbs of whatever 'family' they have left.
" Yeah, go on. "
He sighs in relief, " Our casino in Italy is at risk here. This guy, " he points at a picture, " Is taking our sympathy for granted and gambling with things he shouldn't be. Choi Jonghil—"
" Didn't Y/—" Jungkook eats his words, " Didn't she kill him? Hyung, what were you really doing?! "
" Yah, you brat! Let people body slam you and you'll know the pain! "
" That's why you should start training again! You're getting rusty! "
" You punk, come here—"
Namjoon, as much as he wished to interrupt, remained quiet as he heard Hoseok and Taehyung's giggles over Jungkook's as Yoongi chases him. He sees a small smile on Jin's lips too, and Namjoon is glad his hyung is still here.
Once they calm down, he chuckles.
" Turns out Jonghil is involved with the crime lords of X and Red. The groups that are after us for long now. "
" Good thing he died, then. " Taehyung mumbled, " One less burden. "
" Yes but we needed him for some information. " He sighs, " Anyway, all of us can't attend the gala. Jin hyung will be the target, as always. "
" Thanks. " Jin mumbled and Namjoon shoots him a tiny smile, " You're the oldest, hyung. Of course they'll be after you..."
