Be Mine

Chapter 40

Namjoon sighed in relief when his phone began to vibrate. He had been sitting idle for hours and was extremely bored. "How did it go?" Yoongi asked over the phone. "Perfect, hyung. Night Sky's morons were easier to kill than expected. Siyabonga and Fadhlan are safe. We had a bit of explaining to do, but I made sure they left with no complaints." "Excellent. And what about Yin?"

Namjoon suppressed a smile, "Sinui has reached home safe with the others. All of us are in your house now, hyung, and Jimin is coming to pick you up."

"I can see smoke coming out of your head," Yoongi chuckled as he walked down the steps towards a fuming Jimin, Jonathan trailing behind him. "You could have told me, hyung. I thought you trusted me," Jimin mumbled as he got into the car with Yoongi. Jonathan took the passenger's seat beside the driver. "I trust you with my life, Jimin," Yoongi laughed, "But you being unaware of the situation helped to make it seem more realistic."

Yoongi staggered under Yin's weight as soon as he stepped through the door. She was in the living room with the others, and no sooner did Yoongi enter the house than she ran up to him, flinging her arms around his neck, "Yoongi! You're back! Thank god...I was so worried!" Jimin grinned at Yoongi whose cheeks had turned into tomatoes. "Group hug!" Hoseok called out, making the rest of the boys wrap themselves around Yoongi. Yoongi felt like he was put in a hot case, "Guys! Seriously? Let go! You're cooking me alive." Some laughing and some giggling, they eventually broke the hug.

"Chelsea!" I screamed, running up to the blond girl who spread her arms for me and knocking her to the ground. Chelsea laughed loudly as we sat up in the grass, hugging each other, "Oh, Yin, it's been so long! I missed you so much! Jonathan told me how dad died, and I was like, 'Finally! Good riddance!'"

I giggled, "You should thank Yoongi." "Yoongi?" Chelsea raised an eyebrow with a sly grin, "So sweet, referring to a mafia by his actual name. What's going on between you two?" I flushed at her question, but then my eyebrows knit together as I expressed a doubt, "I thought you hated that idea. Why are you being so chill about it?" "So that means you like him," Chelsea smirked and I blushed before rolling my eyes, "Answer my question, Chelsea McAdam." Chelsea sighed. "I still don't like you becoming a criminal," she said, "But from what Jonathan tells me, you're putting up with it way better than I ever did."

A defeated sigh escaped my lips as I lay flat on the grass. "Something wrong?" Chelsea joined me. "Is that what I have become?" I mumbled.

Silence elapsed as Chelsea and I contemplated our life decisions. The cool grass and gentle breeze eased the stress in our nerves. "No," Chelsea spoke, "You never can and never will hurt anyone intentionally. But, Yin, don't live in denial. Sometimes, doing what you like is more important than doing what you think is right."

I smiled. "I'll miss you, Chel."

"I'll miss you too."

After Night Sky's demise, Jonathan decided to move back to the United States and start a new life. Black Bird offered to let Chelsea take over her dad's business provided she be his ally. Chelsea politely declined; she was more than happy to permanently say goodbye to her mafia life. She decided to move in with her aunt, her mother's sister, who lived in Ireland.

Chelsea has a flight to catch tomorrow, and I won't be able to see her again for a long time after today. I hugged her one last time before getting into the car with Jungkook.

"Finally," Jungkook exhaled, "Home! Here we come!" "Yup," I grinned, "But before that, I have a surprise for you." Jungkook raised his eyebrows, "What surprise?"
