Jimin dropped onto his living room couch with an exhausted sigh.

He saw two missed calls from his hyung and a smile stretched on seeing his name on his screen. Hobi Hyung... His phone had been on silent mode all day and he didn't even get a chance to take a peak during the short washroom breaks he managed to take in between the busy schedule.

He quickly called the number and frowned when it went to his voicemail. The last time they spoke he was in California. What time was it there now? Jimin frowned and disconnected the second call.

Jung Hoseok, his only best friend was a big shot in the industry. Well, his JH Inc. was as big as his current employer was, but his influence in the United States reached far than the Jeon's. Both companies were in a different line of business. Hoseok had asked Jimin to work for his company on so many occasions, but Jimin didn't wanted to mix their friendship and work.

Jimin wished to be independent and Hoseok though not happy with his decision respected that. He owed Hoseok his life. Five years ago, when he had no place to go and no person to turn into, Hoseok had taken him in. He had given him a place and purpose to live. He didn't wish to take advantage of his kindness more than he should.

While he appreciated everything Hoseok had done for him, he decided to venture into the world and build a career of his own. He quickly texted him before settling on the couch. Hoseok traveled a lot for his business and was rarely in Seoul. But they always called each other. Though not related by blood, Hoseok was an elder brother Jimin could always turn into when things got rough.

There were a few messages from his friends in their bombshells group chat, asking how his first day at work was. He replied it was okay. Hoseok along with the three women in the group had become a part of his family over the years and he was glad to have them in his life. He named them bombshells not because of their beauty, well they were indeed beautiful but they were also literally like walking bombs ready to set off if someone made a wrong move.

His phone pinged again; it was a message from the trio telling him not to skip his dinner again. Because when Jimin was exhausted he had a habit of skipping dinner and just went to sleep. They knew him well.

He rubbed his weary face and turned the TV on. He rented a decent one-bedroom apartment not too far from the city. The place was closer to his new job making the travel convenient than before. As he browsed through the music channels, he thought about his day.

The day had been surprisingly good for the first day. Thanks to Jasmine's notebook and the detailed instructions. Jungkook and the Taehyung guy were okay. Just okay? He scoffed.

They were tall and handsome in person. Those photos he had seen before did no justice at all. Especially, the young CEO he admired all these years astounded him. He was beautiful. Well both Jungkook and Taehyung were gorgeous. But there was something more to Jungkook. His honey brown eyes bore into him and pinned him on place for all different reasons. Jimin's heart stuttered when their gazes met, something that had never happened to him before. Jungkook's dark hair was long, carefully styled to fall in waves. But sometimes when it covered his eyes, Jimin had to fight the strange urge to brush it away.

He couldn't comprehend the look on Jungkook's face though. What was that look? His boss looked pissed and pleased at the same time. Well, at least that was how he interpreted. He barely uttered a word or two and avoided answering directly. Perhaps, he was always like that.

But then Jimin pitied for the young CEO who worked restlessly for the entire day. Maybe it was his nature. It was almost seven in the evening when they wrapped the last meeting and the sun has already settled for the day. Was this how he worked? No wonder he was at the top of the game. I must work hard if I have to keep up with his level.
