Mafia Boss Rising

40: Off

After the attack on Yoongi and Y/N's house, Jungkook thought it was best for him to leave early before he caused them any more trouble. It's been two days since the attack and Jungkook insists he leave tomorrow.

Y/N and Yoongi tried to sit down with him and talk him into staying for the remainder of the month, but he refused to bring them more danger. Tonight is his last night here and he wants it to be as peaceful as possible.

Everyone sat in the living room, waiting for Jungkook to bring the tea he wanted to make. Yoongi, Y/N, their guards, but not Soobin. He's still recovering.

"I don't recognize this Jungkook at all. He's changed a lot," Jimin whispered to Y/N.

"You suck at whispering," Taehyung chuckled quietly, "but you're right. He's very different. In a good way."

"I guess you were right, Y/N. He's changed for the better." Jin smiled.

Y/N glanced at Jungkook steeping the tea in the kitchen, "good to know I wasn't just imagining it."

He flickered his eyes up to see her staring and smiled warmly at her.

"I still don't think he should leave so soon," Yoongi said.

"I know, but he won't change his mind, baby." Y/N rested her head on his shoulder.

"The tea is ready!" Jungkook carried a teapot and mugs to the coffee table.

He poured everyone's tea and handed them their mugs. When he gave Yoongi his mug, Yoongi had to ask, "are you sure you want to leave tomorrow night?"

"I already have my things packed. Everybody here is better off without my presence bringing trouble. Didn't you see what the Ninjas of the South did to Soobin? I can't stay here," Jungkook answered, a sad look on his features.

"We handled it though." Namjoon sipped his tea. "There were no deaths on our side, only the enemy side."

Hobi nodded, "we protect each other here."

"Still, people were hurt. I'm leaving tomorrow whether you like it or not...whether I like it or not. It's best for all of us, but thank you for having me. I'm very grateful." Jungkook sat down with his tea.

"Are you on steady feet? Really ready to leave?" Y/N asked.

"Yes, Y/N," Jungkook assured her.

"Alright, alright...we'll stop bugging you about it," she said before drinking some tea.

It was still piping hot, but the honey Jungkook added made it sweet. It was delicious and relaxing. There was a movie playing, but no one could make it to the halfway point due to their heavy eyelids.

All of them were crazy tired. Y/N's guards were so sleepy that they just slept on the couch, not wanting to drive to the guest house.

Both bosses fell onto their bed upstairs, lazily cuddling into each other's arms. They were asleep within minutes of their bodies touching the mattress.

It didn't take long for everyone in the house to fall asleep soundly.

The next day, Y/N woke up, fully stretching her limbs out. She yawned, her eyes squinting open to find that she was alone in bed. Rolling over onto her stomach, she cracked her spine doing a cat stretch.

"Yoongi?" She called out to him.

Y/N thought that maybe he was in the bathroom, but when she looked, the door was open and the light was off. No one's in there.
