Jungkook looked up at the clock for, what must of been, the hundredth time. Jimin said he'd be here at two o'clock, but it was already fifteen after four. 'Where is he?' the younger thought.

Jungkook smiled at the customer that was trying to get his attention. "Yes ma'am, what can I get for you?"

"I'd like a venti green tae latte, please."

Jungkook nodded, ringing up the purchase as he asked for the woman's name to write on her cup. "Okay Yuqi" he sighed. "That'll be 5.25. Give me a minute to fix your drink and I'll be right back."

The woman nodded and smiled as Jungkook stepped over to steam a pitcher of milk. He was trying to focus but his eyes kept flitting between the door and the clock. He lost his grip on the pitcher and it went crashing to the floor, the hot milk splashing across his arms. "Ah shit-" he cussed under his breath. "S-sorry Yuqi. I'll fix it j-just give me a minute."

"It's okay" she said, peering over the counter. "You know, I've been coming here for a while now- and I've never seen you so frazzled. Is everything okay?"

Jungkook thought for a moment. "No- my boyfriend- he was supposed to be here hours ago and I haven't heard from him at all since this morning. I'm starting to get worried."

Jungkook sighed as he finished remaking Yuqi's drink. He slid it across the counter to her with a small smile.

"I'll cover for you so you can go call him if you want." She offered.

Jungkook looked around quickly at Taehyung and Hoseok elbow deep in work. "Okay" he said quickly. "Two minutes- thank you Yuqi."

Jungkook slipped off his apron, quickly grabbing his phone and dashing to the outside alley. He puched in Jimin's contact and hit call. He counted the seconds that ticked by between each ring, waiting- mentally begging, for Jimin to pick up.

'Sorry I missed you' Jimin's voice rang out. 'Just leave a message after the beep and I'll get back to you.' There was a beep and then an eerie silence. Jungkook sucked in his breath.

"Jimin, baby" he toned quietly. "I don't know what's going on- if something's wrong. Just- where are you Jimin? I love you, Jimin. Please- call me."

Jungkook hung up and walked back in with his shoulders hung low. "Any luck?" Yuqi chimed.

"No." Jungkook sighed as he pulled his apron back over his head. "Thanks though."

"No problem." She sigh as she walked out of the café.

Jungkook continued working- jumping at every photo ring and everytime someone came through the door. At around five thirty a group of three came came in. They were loudly laughing and Jungkook relaxed at the sight of them- until they started talking.

"Hey, Kook" Jin laughed. "Could you tell Jimin to come home sometime soon and pet his damn cat. Cal's been crying at the door since late last night."

Jungkook froze on the spot. "Wh-what do you mean?"

Yoongi laughed. "Something's got into Cal- she won't even come to me. Jin called me when he couldn't get a hold of Jimin."

Jungkook shook his head, grabbing onto the counter to steady himself. "No- no. Jimin. He should be with you" he stuttered out.

Namjoon stopped short, grabbing the other's attention. "Guys stop joking around. Something's wrong."

"Tae! Hobi!" Yoongi called. "Get over here!"

The other pair rushed over to join the group surrounding a shaking Jungkook. "Jungkook what is it?" Jin said quickly. "What do you mean Jimin should be with me?"
