BTS Caretaker ( BTS x OC)

Chapter 45 : Marked I

"You alright Joon?" Yoongi eyed the younger guy before him that had a distress look ever since their filming ended few hours ago. Namjoon barely touched his dinner and did not speak as much as he usually did. The corner of his eyes caught Jimin acting odd around Namjoon as if that guy knew something that he did not.

A floor light from the living room light up the space with a pleasant illumination. It was enough for Yoongi to catch a blurry image of Namjoon's expression whom start to darken. Raking his fingers in between his soft lavender hair, a low sigh could be heard from his direction "We ended our relationship" he exhaled the words with heavy heart.

Yoongi was speechless hearing such news, though he had a little idea of how deep Namjoon's relationship with her back then. Yet, he knew how much this guy cherish her. She used to be his source of inspiration in his song writing. Things really went wrong between them, Yoongi could not deny this one fact that he never liked the girl.

"What happen.." his unclear voice was enough to reach Namjoon. Not that he wanted to be happy over the news, however he was kind of relieve that the things have ended for good between them. Ever since the first day Namjoon told him about his genuine feelings for her, he knew something was not right in the beginning. Son Hyemi, one of their stylists who have worked for almost two years with them. Despite her cold demeanour, she appeared to be daring whenever with Namjoon. She was first assigned as Yoongi and Jungkook stylist before they switched it with Namjoon few months later.

Yoongi did not want to condemn anyone but he felt uncomfortable with her around since start. Son Hyemi is in her early 30's when she first started her job as their stylist. Indeed, when it came to her work she's a dedicated woman and that's undeniable. However, for some reason with her mere presence it created unexplainable tense knowing one of his bandmates had a thing for her. They had to pretend that they were okay with it. If it weren't for Namjoon's happiness, he would do something pertaining to that matter. His gut is never wrong.

Son Hyemi was a trouble. She brought nothing but pain to Namjoon. If and only he realized that sooner, he would not get hurt as much as he did now. All of them had spoken about this matter behind Namjoon and clearly none of them were brave enough to say it aloud, being bluntly honest to Namjoon would only push him away. They really cared for his feelings, hurting him was the last thing they wanted to happen.

He croaked "She..is married to someone else. It is over between us" Yoongi was alarmed by his response as he stood up straight, frowning in process.

"What..when this happen?"

"She got married a week ago..It has been happening for a month, all the lies that she told me. I was a fool...to trust her and wait for her to come back to me" Namjoon looked down sadly, clutching onto his hair bellowing his frustration.

"Joon-ah...She does not deserve you. I am sorry that you are in pain and for not trying hard enough to help you through this" he gave a soft squish on his shoulder with full of regret. It was no use to cry over spill milk, horrible things when we least expected.

Lifting his head up weakly, his eyes were brimming with tears "Hyung..Its hurt.. The pain is driving me insane" Yoongi's heart clenched his pain to see his brother in this vulnerable state.

Without uttering any words, Yoongi pulled the younger guy into a tight embrace "I know..You loved her, it was normal to get hurt. It makes you more human" Namjoon on the other hand could not contain his tears anymore, he ended up shedding his tears for the second time today. With his members, he found it was rather hard to not show this side of him. They have become his pillars of strength.

Even for the unaffectionate Min Yoongi, when it involved one of the members, he would gladly reveal this soft side of him that he intended to show only to the people that he cared. Namjoon's shoulder shook and his breath were shuddered as he sobbed uncontrollably letting all the misery contained inside him out. His voice had drawn others to the scene one by one, watching their leader broken in Yoongi's arm.

They exchanged a meaningful look as they had gotten the clue about it while Jimin filled them in with the news few minutes ago. Yoongi gave all of them a soft nod assuring them everything will be fine and that Namjoon only needed a moment to gather himself together.

Namjoon took a deep breath before breaking the hug "Thank you hyung..That was ugly" he wiped his tears with the back of his hand and let out a bitter chuckle.

"Once in a while, you have to cry hard. Life is like that" he patted his back softly. "To be honest, I am glad that you finally see her true colours. We are sorry that we go behind your back and talk shit about her. However, we could not bring ourselves to tell you the truth. We only want what is best for you. If being with her makes you happy then, we are fine with it. We will learn to accept her" his lips were pressed into a thin line.

"Hyung.." Namjoon pondered upon Yoongi's word hard. Why did he do to deserve these guys in his life? Despite the bad choices that he made, they had their back for him without complain.

Another voice came into the picture which startled Namjoon "Joon-ah..Kim Namjoon. Who needs girls if you have us? Our love is enough" said Jin, throwing his arm around Namjoon's shoulder. Namjoon's realized other members were already there smiling sadly at his way, he returned it with a genuine smile. They caught his overwhelmed reactions as he turned into a puddle of tears over the welcoming sight in front of him.

Taehyung lurched to his side attacking him with a big hug "Hyunggie, Hyemi nuna just showed you that you have bigger heart than she is. You will soon find your own happy ending, not with Hyemi nuna but with someone better than her" his jaw hung open into his signature smile.

"This time around we will make sure any girl that you like will pass through us first before they can date you!" Jin beamed.

Namjoon laughed at their silliness "Why is it a 'they'? Are you turning me into a Casanova?" he raised his brows in amusement. Hoseok retorted "Well, just in case we don't like the girl we will have backup don't you think? Chill Kim Namjoon, life maybe short, let's not think about future and live the present" he exchanged their usual fist bump causing the latter to chuckle softly.

"Thank you, for standing by my side even in my worst state, you will always be there. I am sorry that I cause unnecessary worries. I promise I will be better and get over this feeling that I have for her. It is stupid and too good to be truth" his voice was full of regret.

Jungkook and Jimin had a proud smile on their face, watching their precious hyung that was able to finally pull his usual smile on his face. They will never be tired dealing with all the craps happening in their group. It is the recipe of their strong brotherhood.

"Who is up for drinks" Hoseok waved a can of beer accompanied by his sunny smile. So, it was that time of the month again to have a deep shit kind of talk all night. As everyone took their seat on the stool near the counter, Jimin helped to pass one can of beer each to the members except Jungkook.

His lips curved upward into a protest "Hyung...why...." Jimin brows flinched together while shaking his head in disapproval.

"Not tonight gguk. You will get the banana milk" Jimin chided, gliding the small bottle in front of him.
