JUNGKOOK POV

Two days with my house
guests passed quickly.

We hung out around the house, visited with Jin and the baby, wandered the woods a bit, at least Dalsu and I did.

His dad needed that rest for his leg and his head and everything else he'd managed to damage.

I made sure he was settled on the couch with a drink close at hand, a few snacks and my tablet to watch things on
while we went out and
learned the lay of the land.

I'd cooked breakfast about
as often as I thought I could reasonably pull off for morning and nighttime meals but Jimin swore he was a good cook
and I told him that if he
agreed to sit at the counter
and give me instructions,
we'd try something new.

On the morning of the third
day, I was called to Joon's
office to discuss what, I had no idea but as soon as I hit the waiting area, he called me in.

"Sit down, Jungkook."

"We need to make some
plans for Dalsu."

"Okay...what kind of plans?"

Was he going to insist I not let him or him and his dad leave?

"I've already been spending
time with him talking about
what it means to be a wolf."

"That's very good and I'm glad they're still at your house."

"But they can't stay there and never leave, either."

I scratched my head.

"You told me to get them
there but I get it, Jimin is champing at the bit to get
back to his job."

"The bar he works for is
about to be sold."

"Wait, you know the place
right?"

"Jin's bar, Right."

"I did know that was where
they became friends."

"The boss is selling it, huh? Interesting." He tapped a
pencil on the desk.

"Anyway, with Jimin ready to return to work soon, he'll
want Dalsu in school."

"I propose he goes to the
private academy instead of returning to his regular class."

"Get him signed up right away."

He dropped his focus to a
stack of pages in front of him and made a mark with the
pencil, dismissing me from his attention but I had some thoughts on the subject.

"Uh, alpha?"

"Hmm?" He didn't look up.

"Are you still here, Jungkook?"

He knew I was.

But I hadn't taken the hint
not to be there.

"You know I am, alpha."

"I was curious what to do if
Jimin says he doesn't want to move his son to an unfamiliar school, Dalsu loves that place
so much."

"He got me to play some of
the songs he learned in music class on the guitar and is learning the chords."

"And he has friends, at least I thought he did."

"Come to think of it he'd never mentioned anyone but his teachers."

"He'll have friends here." Joon said, setting the pencil down
and giving me his full
attention again.

"And at the academy."
