I'm playing Mystic Messenger again felt like this song was good for the mood of the chapter.


Taehyung's P.O.V

"Yoongi, you should take a break. I don't know, release your stress somehow." Namjoon suggested.

"Okay if anything, I want my favorite dessert. That's all I want and then I'll do whatever for this stupid wedding."

"I knew you'd say that. I got Taehyung here to prepare your dessert already so we can move quickly with this and plan the wedding."

Namjoon signaled me to leave and I was on my way. To be honest, being in the same room as the prince was kinda intimidating. I did feel a little better though since Namjoon was in there.

As I was walking down the hallway I saw Y/N mumbling to herself. She looks like she's deep in thought... Maybe if I called out to her she'd look at me.

"Y/N! Hey!"

She kept getting closer but didn't look up. Soon enough, she bumped into me.

"Woah watch where you're going Y/N."

Her face was grim and it looked like all of the life had been sucked out of her face. Something was clearly wrong with her.

"You looked worried about something. Are you okay?"

"Yeah sorry I just-... I don't know, the whole wedding thing is finally hitting me. Just a lot going through my mind right now."

Ah so it's about the wedding. Maybe she's worried about all the people that's going to be there and stuff.

"Considering the small icing on your shirt, I take it that you've seen the potential ceremony desserts?"

She sighed and looked away," Yeah it uh... Kinda set me off I guess."

She seemed so depressed and worried. Right before her own wedding too. Something about this wedding though doesn't seem right. Why is Y/N like this? I mean she's about to marry Prince Yoongi... That's literally every girls dream.

"Don't worry it's just probably just wedding nerves. Soon you and Yoongi will be happily married and you can continue on with your classes."

I could see her heart sink at my words. Something was definitely wrong with this wedding. Come to think of it... How did Y/N become engaged to the Prince. I shook off those thoughts for now and refocused on my original task. I'll find out why you're so sad Y/N, don't worry too much...

"Anyways, I should get going now. Namjoon will beat my ass if I don't hurry."

"Ah okay. Take care."

I rushed down the hall before yelling back a goodbye," You too Y/N."

The walk to the kitchen wasn't a long one. Maybe because my thoughts about Y/N clouded my mind. Nevertheless, I needed to focus right now. I'll ask Hoseok about it later. It'll give me something to talk to him about. Now that I think about it, I haven't seen Hoseok lately. Maybe he's been busy with his other duties.

When I walked through the east entrance to the kitchen, the cooks were panicking. I pulled on of them aside and asked what had happened.

"A lot of the cakes have already been sampled but we were ordered by Jin that only the Queen was to sample them. About 13 cakes were damaged and the tasting is tomorrow morning."

"Can't you just stay here and bake them overnight?" I asked.

He sighed looking defeated and shook his head, "Most of the bakers already went home and the ones that are here don't have the keys to open the Head Bakers recipe book. We're all doomed."

I looked around for the Prince's cake and thankfully it was left untouched. God knows what would have happened if that cake was ate...

I grabbed the cake and quickly rushed back to the Prince's office. When I walked in, Namjoon and the Prince were talking about the wedding plans.

"Took you long enough." Namjoon said while pushing his hair back.

"Ah sorry about that. There a small problem but its fixed now."

I set the cake in front of the Prince and served him a piece. I should have been freaking out but my mind was elsewhere. Sure, serving the Prince is a really big deal but I couldn't shake my thoughts about Y/N and the whole wedding.

I stepped back and let Jin and the Prince keep talking but I didn't pay attention to any of it. Besides, it wasn't super important. Just the typical wedding things.

"Oh, Taehyung... I had forgot you were still here. You are dismissed."

As soon as Namjoon was done speaking, I bowed and hurried out the room. I had to go find Hoseok.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

As I was walking down the path to get to the bodyguard headquarters, I kept thinking about how Y/N got here. Now that I thought about it, I just accepted the fact that she was going to marry the Prince. I didn't question it at all. Then again, I was never really into politics. Even though I live here at the palace, I never really cared about what was going on. I'm satisfied with my life here and just do as I'm told. Yeah it gets boring sometimes but I would never do anything that could compromise my life stability. I need to keep this job for myself and for them.

I can't help but feel like getting involved with Y/N's "situation", If i can even call it that, would put that in danger. There's a secrecy to her that I just can't figure out. I want to know everything regarding Y/N but it feels like too much of a risk. I don't wanna get involved with something big.

I sighed stared at the bodyguards headquarters. Hoseok is usually always in the training room so I should check there first. While I walked in, I waved to a few of the guards that I knew but went straight to the training room. From the outside I could hear someone using the punching bag. They were going pretty hard so just walked in assuming it was Hoseok.

It was not.

Instead, Jimin turned around and looked at me.

"Oh sorry for interrupting... But uh, is Hoseok here?"

He only sighed and went to grab his water bottle. After a few chugs he wiped his mouth and spoke.

"He got in trouble so the Prince sent him away. Although, the Prince said he would release him but it's been three days and there's still no sign of him."

"Wha- Missing?! If he's missing then why haven't you gone searching for him? What are you doing wasting your time here fighting a bag? We need to go find him now!"

My rage was taking over me and I couldn't help but yell. Hoseok is really close to me and apparently to Jimin too. But if Jimin isn't even doing anything to find him then I can't help but question how much Hoseok really means to Jimin.

"There's no use. The Prince probably sent him away so what can we do!" He yelled back.

"Fake."

"What...?"

"If you really cared about Hoseok, you would be searching for him no matter what. Even if he go stationed to somewhere else, shouldn't you at least try to contact him to see how he's doing. How could you give up on him so easily. Hoseok and I might not be as close as you and him but it's a shame that I care about him more than you."

I let everything out. I didn't hold back. I could see the anger in his eyes.

"Who are you to judge our relationship. You might be his friend also but do butting into situations you know nothing about. I've done all I can and there's nothing else to do now. So stop bothering me and go back to sweeping the floor or something."
