Chapter 42: Amateurs

Y/N POV

How the hell am I supposed to bring up what happened last night?

I glanced over at Jaehyun who was quietly working. The more I thought about what happened, the more anxious I felt to ask about it. Is he just gonna pretend it never happened?

I stood from my desk, ready to approach him when suddenly Yuta appeared in my doorway. What's he doing here? He looked at me with a perky smile on his face. Is he happy to see me?

"Long time no see, Ms. Kang," he stated, making his way into my office.

"We spoke yesterday," I awkwardly laughed, sitting back down.

Yuta sat down in the chair across from me after closing my office door. Whatever he says next must be important enough for him to not want Jaehyun to hear.

"While I wish I was here to tell you how beautiful you are in Jeno's absence, I'm here for something much more serious," he began.

"Jeno sent you?" I questioned.

"Mhm," he nodded. "He got called to the PD to speak with the Lieutenant. I'm assuming you're close with Lieutenant Jung?" He asked, raising his brow.

I nodded in response to his question.

"So..? What's so important Jeno couldn't wait to show me himself?" I sternly asked.

"Aw," Yuta pouted. "You're not happy to see me?"

"That's not what I meant," I answered, becoming slightly annoyed.

"I know," he laughed.

He reached for his pocket, setting a flash drive on my desk. As he did so, his perky expression dropped into a serious one.

"This is footage from two of the other shootings, take a look," he stated.

I plugged the USB into my laptop, pulling up the video footage. I viewed both videos, frowning after finishing the second.

"There's a pattern," I mumbled.

"Mhm," Yuta urged. "If this is another mafia group, they must be amateurs. No one has a pattern to what they do, especially not one so exact."

"What if it isn't a mafia group?" I suggested.

Yuta looked at me, his eyes yearning for me to continue.

"What if this is the first time they're doing something like this? If so, that could explain the similar tactic within each shooting," I added.

"That would make sense," he nodded. "But what would be their motive?"

"That's what I'm still trying to figure out," I said, staring hard at my laptop. "We should keep our options open. Lord knows what'll happen should we let our guards down for a second." I concluded, handing him the drive.

"Yeah," Yuta answered. "I'll let Jeno know, and I'll have him send a copy of the drive."

"Thank you, love," I replied.

"Of course," he said, opening my door. "Oh, and one more thing," he added, turning around. "He's right, you do look lovely today, as you do everyday. Jaehyun is gonna be one lucky man~"

"Wai-"

Before I could get a word in, he was already long gone from my doorway. What is he even talking about? I know we almost kissed, but me and Jaehyun? Tch. Even if we had feelings for one another, wouldn't it be too soon? I just got over Tony, now this?

The more I think about it, the more it bothers me... But why do I kind of hope he's right?
