Mafia Boss Rising

23: Grace My Life

"Shit, we gotta try spacing these meetings out more." Yoongi sighed. "Three in one day gives me headaches."

"I agree," your knee cracked as you stepped into the house, "my legs are stiff from sitting in the car."

The time is currently six in the evening and today's been a long day. You're pretty worn out and kinda hungry. You already know Yoongi's too tired to cook dinner so you went to the kitchen to fix something up.

Namjoon and Hobi settled for ramen noodles while you made a sandwich for yourself and one for Yoongi too. As you reached for the bread, your phone rang. It's...beautiful Mirae.

"Hi, Mirae," you answered, "how are you, beautiful?"

"Y/N!" She squealed. "I'm good! I missed your voice. Can you sing for me? Please?"

Yoongi was slumped on the living room couch, squeezing his eyes shut every time the pain of his headache came on. He could faintly hear you on the phone with someone, but he definitely heard you when you started singing.

"I know you, I walked with you once upon a dream..." your voice carried from the kitchen to his ears. "I know you, that look in your eyes is so familiar a gleam..."

"You sound great! Sing more! I love it!" Mirae cheered you on.

"And I know it's true that visions are seldom all they seem," you continued. "But if I know you, I know what you'll do. You'll love me at once. The way you did once upon a dream."

"She's talking to Mirae. That's her favorite song." Yoongi thought.

He recalled the night Mirae left for her grandmother's house...what she said to him before leaving.

She whispered into his ear, "I see you and Y/N like each other, but you never said she was your girlfriend. Make her that."

"I gotta go, Mirae. I'm gonna eat dinner." You came walking into the living room with two plates. "Alright, bye."

Your boss sat up when you placed a plate down for him, "...for me?"

"Mhm." You nodded, already taking a bite out of yours.

"Thank you." He smiled, digging in and finishing his sandwich in five minutes.

As you ate, Hobi and Namjoon passed by, saying they were going to sleep early. Yea...today was tiring as hell.

Your eyes were on the TV, but you had a feeling Yoongi's weren't. When you looked at him, you were right. He's staring right at you, and even though you're staring back, he isn't saying anything.

"Yes, sir?" You asked, waving your hand around.

"Oh," he blinked, "didn't even know I was looking at you."

"Aww, you getting lost in me, boss?" You chuckled.

He thought for a moment and the corners of his mouth turned up, "...honestly? Yes, I am."

"...well," you said, "I'm getting lost in you too."

"Y/N," he started...and nothing could prepare you for the words that would leave his mouth. "I've been thinking a lot...and if you're ok with it, I wanna be your man."

He wants to be your man. He wants to be yours. What stuck out to you was that he asked differently than others would. He didn't say he wanted you to be his girl...like he wanted to own you. He's offering himself to you if you'll accept him.

Still, part of you knows you won't be easy to be with. The crazy ex, the psychosis, everyone wanting to kill you...

"Are you sure you want to be with me, Yoongi? It most likely won't be a walk in the park." You gave him an out.
