A/N: I really hope you guys are enjoying the story so far! :)

Recap:  "You kind of are." Yoongi chuckled.

“Whatever. Why are you going to kill me anyway?” Jimin asked softly.

“Well you, I don’t really know why. I was sent to kill the whole Park family.” Yoongi shrugged.

“Did they do something bad that I don’t know about?” Jimin asked. “My parents I mean.”

“Many things.” Yoongi went silent.

“As much as I’m curious I really don’t want to know.” Jimin spoke to no one in particular.

“Good decision!” Yoongi chimed.

“What about you and your family?” Jimin looked at Yoongi.

“What about them?” Yoongi still Looked out the peep hole.

“What are they like?” Jimin asked.

“Were like. They died in a fire when I was younger, I don’t remember much about them though.” Yoongi softly spoke.

“I’m sorry.” Jimin looked at Yoongi's tense feature.

“Don’t be. Not your fault.” Yoongi sighed.

Yoongi’s eyes widened when he felt a pair of arms wrap around him. He looked away from the peep hole and down at Jimin who was now hugging the older boy. Jimin’s face was snuggled in Yoongi’s jacket.

“What are you doing?” Yoongi lifted his arms not wanting to touch the younger boy.

“Hugging you.” Jimin stated.

“Thank you captain obvious.” Yoongi rolled his eyes.

Jimin slightly giggled.” That's funny because we're on a boat. Get it?” Jimin snorted.

“You’re cheesey.” Yoongi pursed his lips.

“Yeah, well you're a potato!” Jimin snapped back.

“That was terrible.” Yoongi shook his head.

“Yeah, I know don’t rub it in.” Jimin spoke still clinging on to Yoongi.

“Why are you hugging me?” Yoongi cut to the chase.

“Because you were sad, and it was my fault so I’m making up for it.” Jimin’s voice was muffled from the older boys jacket.

Yoongi was quiet for a minute. “Can I ask you something?” yoongi Looked down at the boy.

“Sure!” Jimin sat up looking at yoongi.

“Why do you care for others without caring for yourself first?” Yoongi looked into Jimin’s eyes.

Jimin didn’t know how to respond. He was shocked by the question. His lips slightly parted as he thought of what to say. Why did he even do that? Well of course it was an obvious answer. So others were happy.

“So others are happy first I guess.” Jimin answered.

“Hmm.” Yoongi thought in silence. “ you're a strange one Park, Jimin.”

“Thanks…?” Jimin made a confused face.

“Still doesn't make sense.” Yoongi shook his head.

“What doesn't?” Jimin looked through the peep hole as the ship left the dock.

“Why would you care about someone who killed your family and is going to end up killing you?” Yoongi was mainly talking to himself now.

“My parents deserved what they got. And I have this slight feeling you might not kill me.” Jimin smirked.

Yoongi turned his head to face Jimin with one eyebrow arched. “Short stuff, it would take a miracle for that to happen.”

“Don’t make it sound like it’s not going to happen. Jeeze. There's at least an eighty percent chance of it happening. Am I a threat? No. My family was, not me. Only you Hoseok, and I know that.” Jimin crossed his arms.” You have the choice to kill me or not.”

“So you want to live now?” Yoongi asked.

“I’ve always wanted to live. What gave you the impression that I don't want to live?” Jimin exasperated.

“How you were so accepting of your fate about being killed in South Korea.” Yoongi answered. “Or being killed in general actually.”

“Oh that. Well I don’t really know myself but, you were different.” Jimin yawned.

“What's that supposed to mean?” Yoongi knitted his eyebrows together.

Jimin rested his head on Yoongi’s shoulder.” I don’t know. I guess I felt like I could trust you. It seemed like you weren't going to hurt me. I felt like I would have a better connection with you than my parents since they never cared about me after we moved and all. I don't have any friends here either.” Jimin yawned again.

Yoongi chuckled. “How can you trust someone you just met?”

“Easy. I have this gut feeling about things and this time my gut feeling was telling me about being able to trust you.” Jimin simply told Yoongi.

“Sounds makebelieve.” Yoongi laughed before looking through the hole made window again.

“It’s not or I wouldn’t be here right now would I?” Jimin felt himself slowly falling asleep.

Yoongi was surprised at his response. In a way he was right. Yoongi didn’t want to hurt Jimin. He was obviously as innocent as a boy can get. Which is saying something since some boys well… You know. Yoongi would have to try and talk to Seokjin Hyung. Just as Yoongi thought that, a call from Seokjin came. Yoongi answered quickly.

“Yoongi.” Jin said firmly.

“Seokjin Hyung.” Yoongi said trying not to wake up The sleeping boy next to him.

“You were supposed to kill the whole family.” Seokjin wasn’t too happy.

“He’s innocent, hyung. He hasn't done anything wrong. Almost so innocent I don’t think he knows what a condom is.” Yoongi whispered.

“Too far, Yoongi. That's something most people learn in school. And why are you whispering? It’s creepy.” Seokjin asked confused.

“Did Hoseok tell you the whole story?” Yoongi asked.

“All of it including parts about how you two would be a cute couple.” Seokjin rolled his eyes.

“That boy and his dahm fantasies. Anyways Jimin’s sleeping right now, that's why I’m whispering.” Yoongi answered his question.

“Look, Yoongi I know I told you to kill all bad and only bad but, the other Assassination hide outs will find out sooner or later that you didn’t kill who you were supposed to. They won't just come after you, they’ll come after all of us.” Seokjin was now whispering.

“Why are you whispering? It’s creepy?” Yoongi mocked him.

“Yoongi I’m serious. I know Jimin didn’t do anything hence why I tried to make it seem like he wasn’t all that innocent so we wouldn't have to have this conversation. If you don’t kill him more than one life will be on the line.” Seokjin was still whispering.

“Isn’t there a way I can not kill Jimin and not get us killed either?” Yoongi quietly asked.

“If there was wouldn't you think I would've found it by now?” Seokjin simply said on the other end.

Yoongi didn’t say anything. “I’m sorry, Yoongi.” Seokjin apologized. “There's no other way.”
