Chapter-1

...The ride back home was dead quiet....

...The radio had been turned off due to the breaking news about an act of sexual assault occurring to one of the students attending the local high school....

...Mrs. Jeon would occasionally sniffle due to her runny nose, Mr. Jeon didn't speak a single word as he gripped tightly onto the steering wheel and glared at the road in front of him and Yugyeom was staring at his little brother who was lost in thought as he looked out the window of the car....

...When his parents came to pick up Jungkook, Mrs. Jeon broke down in tears and hugged her son tightly as she started interrogating him about what happened, Yugyeom hugged his brother as well then started shouting at him for being so stupid and scaring the whole family, while Mr. Jeon just murmured a quiet 'let's go' and pulled his son down the hallway....

...Jungkook didn't say anything though, he hasn't been able to ever since Jimin had woken up. All four of them could hear Taehyung and Jimin's crying from outside the hospital room. Taemin started crying as well so Jungkook had to hold him as he fought back his own tears....

...This wasn't supposed to happen, and nobody knew what to do now, nobody knew how to react, what to say, they were at a loss for words and they couldn't even look one another in the eye without guilt punching them in the face....

...Seokjin and Hoseok didn't dare to look up from the ground; they felt sick to their stomachs due to the overwhelming guilt twisting their insides around. Taemin was in grief, he couldn't hold his tears back when he heard Jimin's cries, Namjoon was in custody due to physical assault and Jungkook was still in a state of shock....

...A part of him has come to the realization that the plan crashed and burned in the exact way they were all dreading and praying it wouldn't. But the other half of him hasn't even processed yet that it has been four hours since the plan had been set in motion....

...The family finally made it back home. They got out of the car and made their way inside the house, Jungkook wanted nothing more but to go up into his room and fall asleep but his family wasn't allowing him to do so....

...''Sit down.'' Mr. Jeon ordered as the family walked into the living room, Jungkook obeyed and sat down on the edge of the sofa making Yugyeom join him. He watched his father run his hand through his graying hair and pull at the ends roughly as he sighed. ''What in the hell were you thinking?'' He didn't sound angry, his tone of voice was a mix of fear and exhaustion....

...''W-we just wanted to help.'' Jungkook murmured; he was holding back his tears the entire time he spoke. Yugyeom noticed his brother's discomfort and placed a hand on his back to calm him down....

...''You should've gone to the police, you should've told somebody.'' Mrs. Jeon spoke up as she wiped away at her puffy eyes, her voice was hoarse from all the crying and Jungkook couldn't help but think of Jimin's cries as he listened to her speak....

...''Who would've believed us? W-we didn't have any proof, for all we know the police would've just laughed in our face and told us to go away.''...

...''So instead you were going to film the teacher rape your friend?'' Mr. Jeon asked but instantly regretted doing so when he realized how insensitive he had sounded....

...''That wasn't the plan!'' Jungkook snapped back. ''W-we just needed proof, the plan was to run in the second it got too risky but the teacher locked him in a place we didn't expect so we weren't able to get to him fast enough...'' The longer he spoke the shakier his voice got. ''This wa-wasn't supposed to happen...''...

...''God, they better lock that bastard up for good.'' Mr. Jeon cursed as he pulled at his ends again. ''Has he done it to any other student as well?''...

...''I don't know... I-I hope not... ''...

...''Did he ever make either of you uncomfortable during lessons?'' Mrs. Jeon asked her sons....

...''Mom, the police already asked all those questions do I really have to repeat all of them.''...

...''Right, I'm sorry Kookie, we should stop, he's been through enough tonight.''...

...''Thank you... C-could I go out for a bit, to get some fresh air?'' By 'get some fresh air' he meant run into his boyfriend's arms and cry until he no longer had the energy to stay awake and pass out....

...''You're not going anywhere, you're grounded.'' Mr. Jeon replied....

...''What?''...

...''Jungkook I don't want you leaving the house at all. In the morning Yugyeom will drive you to school and when your classes end either Yugyeom or Yoongi or even myself if nobody else will be able to will drive you home. Tonight was a reality check; this world is a scary place and there's no way I'm risking something dangerous happening to either of you. Yugyeom we'll discuss a curfew for you as well.''...

...''What?'' The said boy spoke up with a raised eyebrow....

...''And check who they're talking to online, there's a lot of people who pretend to be someone they're not online.'' Mrs. Jeon added....

...''Good idea, give me your phones.'' And with that, the pair's eyes went wide in shock and their bodies froze in fear....

...''W-what?'' They stuttered out....

...''You heard me, I want to check who you two talk to.'' Jungkook started mentally cursing as he realized his family did not know about his relationship with Yoongi....

...''Why do you need to check my phone, I only text Taehyung, Jimin and Taemin.'' Jungkook tried his best to stay calm; he glanced over at his brother, hoping the raven had an idea as to how to save their asses....

...''Dad that's a bit too extreme, don't you think? We're not idiots we know not to talk to some weirdos.''...

...''Then you should have no problem showing me your phones, right.''...

...''My battery's dead, I need to charge it first.'' The purple haired boy lied....

...''Go get your charger then.'' A sigh escaped the youngest's lips as he stood up from the couch and made his way up the stairs....

...The second he was out of sight, he took out his phone and started deleting his apps. He deleted his Instagram and Snapchat due to the photos and conversations he had on those apps then quickly started deleting his messages; lastly, he opened up his camera roll....

...His most recent pictures consisted of him and Yoongi and nothing else. Him and Yoongi on a date, him and Yoongi making something to eat, him and Yoongi after sex, the list went on and on. Jungkook quickly selected all the photos and sent them to his boyfriend then deleted them all along with a few other photos he rather not explain to his father....

...Hyyyuuunnng <3:...

...[???]...

...Bunny<3:...

...[*Bunny<3 has changed the nickname to Yoongi hyung*]...

...[*Jungkook has removed the nickname Bunny<3*]...

...[Save them imma need them later also do not message me for the next hour dad is going thru my phone]...

...Yoongi hyung:...

...[Call me afterword.]...

...Jungkook didn't reply, just deleted the rest of the conversation. He finished his tasks by the time he made it up the stairs. He quickly grabbed his charger then rushed back to the living room....

...As he made it back into the living room, he saw his father sitting on the couch looking through Yugyeom's phone with a glare on his face. Yugyeom sent the younger a 'help me' look and Jungkook instantly cleared his throat to earn the man's attention....

...''What are you doing?'' He asked his father....

...''Losing faith in my parenting skills.'' Mr. Jeon replied as he handed his son his phone back. ''Yours better not be filled with the kind of conversations I just saw.''...

...Jungkook tried to figure out what his father meant by that, Yugyeom and his friends would always talk about parties and all that on snapchat out of the sole reason of nobody every finding those conversations, what else was his brother hiding that made Mr. Jeon's expression so bitter and disappointed....

...''Let me just charge it first...'' Jungkook murmured as he plugged his charger in then pretended to wait for his cellphone to turn on when in reality he turned it off himself....

...''Then I'll get dressed for work in the meanwhile.'' Mr. Jeon murmured as he left the living room....

...''What the hell did he see?'' Jungkook whispered as he rushed over to his brother. A nervous laugh escaped Yugyeom's lips as he slid his phone back into his pocket....

...''He found one of my booty calls, Jungkook if I don't make it back from work tonight know dad dumped my body in a ditch on the way to work.''...

...''One of your booty calls?'' Jungkook questioned....

...''Dad saw our nudes.'' Yugyeom explained causing Jungkook to cringe....

...''I didn't need to know that.'' He spoke as he shook his head....

...''Sorry...'' Yugyeom spoke as he placed his hand back on the younger's back. ''Kookie why didn't you tell me about this?'' He questioned in a hushed tone, before Jungkook could even come up with a sentence to reply to his brother with, somebody else spoke up first....

...''Yugyeom why aren't you dressed yet, we leave in ten minutes.'' Mr. Jeon spoke as he made his way back into the living room....

...''Then who's staying at home with Kookie?''...

...''Why would I need somebody to stay with me?'' Jungkook asked as his mother rushed into the living room as well....

...''Yugie's right, we need somebody to stay with him.'' Mrs. Jeon agreed, ignoring her son's question....

...''If you don't need me to help out tonight I can stay with him.'' Yugyeom suggested....

...''That would be a good idea.'' Mr. Jeon nodded along as he scrolled through Jungkook's phone....

...''But honey, there's so much paperwork due Friday we need all the help we can get.'' Mrs. Jeon tried to reason with her husband and that is when an idea struck the youngest of the four....

...''If you're that worried about leaving me alone for the night, what if I just ask Yoongi hyung if he can come over.'' Jungkook suggested to his family....

...''That's a good idea too, Yugyeom, ask Yoongi if he has the time.'' Mrs. Jeon agreed making Yugyeom take out his phone and text his best friend. Not even ten seconds after Yugyeom sent the text his phone already vibrated again....

...''He said he's on his way.'' Yugyeom spoke up. ''Which means he will probably be here in about ten minutes.''...

...''We'll just wait until he gets here.'' Mrs. Jeon spoke causing the youngest to sigh....

...''Mom, I can manage on my own for ten minutes, you can go I'll be fine.'' Jungkook spoke, he didn't want to sound rude but he didn't know how much longer he could stay calm around his family and the last thing he wanted was for them to see him breakdown....

...''He's right, we should get going.'' Yugyeom spoke up; sensing Jungkook wanted them to leave....

...''Kookie, are you sure you'll be okay?'' Mrs. Jeon asked as she pulled her son into a hug....

...''I'm sure.'' Jungkook whispered, his voice too shaky to speak in a normal volume....

...''Okay then, be good, get some rest, you don't have to go to school tomorrow if you don't feel like it. We won't be back for a while. Call if anything is wrong.''...

...''Okay.'' Jungkook nodded as he his mother pulled away from the hug....

...The trio took another five minutes to leave the house and when they did, Jungkook's expression dropped and he was once again left alone to repeat the vivid scenes in his head. His hands started to shake and it got harder to breath as the scene played out in his head again....

...He was standing in the hallway, the principle was yelling, Taemin was crying, Taehyung was throwing up, he heard the police sirens; somebody moved him out of the doorframe so that he was no longer able to look at Jimin....

...He couldn't get the image out of his head. An unconscious Jimin lying on his side in a fatal position, Taemin was putting his clothes back on as he choked on his sobs while Namjoon helped him. Mr. Ahn was passed out on the ground and beaten to a pulp, while Namjoon didn't even have a scratch on his face....

...He still couldn't remember how exactly he made it from the school to the hospital he just remembered holding Taehyung the entire ride because the paramedics didn't let him ride with Jimin....

...Suddenly the doorbell snapped him out of his thoughts....

...He pushed himself off the couch and made his way over to the front door, his head dizzy as he walked. The second he unlocked the door Yoongi opened it and rushed inside....

...''What the hell happened?! Why didn't you tell me what was going on?! Dammit Kook do you have any idea how scared I was!'' Yoongi shouted in panic, not ever realizing that tears were falling from the younger's eyes until a small whimper escaped Jungkook's lips. ''Shit... Bunny I'm so sorry.'' He quickly apologized as he rushed over to the younger and pulled him into a tight hug. Jungkook buried his head into the crook of the older's neck and started crying, unable to hold it back anymore. ''Shh, it's okay, I'm right here.'' Yoongi assured as he kissed the top of the younger's head....

...''I-I'm so-sorry for s-scaring you.'' Jungkook murmured making Yoongi squeeze him even tighter....

...''It's okay, I'm not mad. Don't worry about it, I'm not mad. I was just scared.''...

...''Ji-Jimin is in th-the hospital...''...

...''I know... Taemin told me everything.''...

...''I-I do-don't know... Wh-what to do, h-hyung... Ji-Jimin g-got-''...

...''Shh, bunny, calm down.''...

...''I-I ca-can't!'' Jungkook sobbed. ''I-I'm s-so scared... I-I... I can't stop th-thinking-''...

...''Shh... Just breathe deeply.'' Yoongi spoke in a soft tone as he ran his hand through Jungkook's hair. ''You have to breathe or else you'll start hyperventilating. Breathe bunny.'' Jungkook obeyed and forced himself to inhale sharply. ''Good, now let it out.''...

...Jungkook exhaled, then inhaled again until he was no longer shaking and his crying had dialed down a bit....

...''Let's go lie down, okay? You must be tired, let's go to bed.'' Yoongi spoke as he picked the younger up and carried him up the stairs. He gripped onto his tightly to make sure not to drop him and bared through the stairs....

...When the pair made it to the bedroom Yoongi closed the door with his foot then laid his boyfriend down on the bed. He kicked off his shoes, which he forgot to take off when he walked into the household then threw his jacket off and laid down next to the younger....

...Jungkook instantly cuddled into his side and buried his head into the crook of Yoongi's neck....

...''It'll be okay, just stay calm.'' He assured the younger as he hugged him tightly. ''You're not going to school tomorrow, right.'' He more confirmed than asked....

...''Mom said I don't have to, so yeah, I probably won't go.'' Jungkook murmured back as he looked up at the older....

...''Good, then I'll stop by before I go to class.'' Yoongi replied as he wiped the tears away from Jungkook's puffy eyes....

...''Are you ditching the first two periods again?''...

...''Why go to P.E. when we can have our own work out at home.'' Yoongi joked in attempt to make the younger chuckle. Jungkook just sent him a small smile and placed a kiss on his lips before snuggling his face back into the crook of the younger's neck....

...Yoongi continued stroking the younger's hair, every once in a while assuring him he's still with him all until Jungkook feel asleep. He stared down at his puffy cheeks as he held in his breath, trying his best not to start crying as well....
