Jungkook just sits there, staring at him blankly as he doesn't know what to make of this. "What do you mean he's in danger?"

Mr. Kim sighs as Jungkook is starting to get on his nerves. He gets it, Jin probably didn't tell him because he was scared but he doesn't believe Jungkook is this dumb. As much as he knows he can't, in order for Jungkook to be of any help at all, he has to know what's going on.

"Seokjin is a victim of sexual assault, Jungkook. He confided in me as he was too scared to tell anyone else in fear of not being believed. He told me Mr. Cho was the one who attacked him."

     His heart drops and he grows pale at the news. How can he be so stupid? Jin has been showing signs all along—when he didn't want to leave his room after so many days, when he limped out of the classroom, his denial towards anything consensual with Mr. Cho, when he heard crying from outside the room. His anger and jealousy made him overlook such things and now he wishes he wasn't so much of a goddamn asshole because now, Jin is missing. Maybe he could've done something had he been more understanding.

     "So he... Mr. Cho..."

     Jonghyun sighs sadly. "Yes Jungkook. Jin was raped."

     A tear escapes him as he looks down. He realizes that people like him are the reason why sometimes, victims are afraid to come forward. Their lashing out and their anger causes them to close back up and never want to speak up again as they think everyone will react the same way.

     "We gotta do something. Go to the police, go to my uncle, we have to—"

     "We can't Jungkook."

     Jungkook stands up and slams his hands on his desk. "And why the fuck not?!"

     "I understand you're upset but I'd appreciate it if you refrain from cussing at me. We can't do anything right now because we have no proof or evidence that something nefarious is going on here between Seokjin and Mr. Cho. We can't just accuse him with nothing to back up our claim. And for all we know, Jin could've really just left without a word and he's safe somewhere. Mr. Cho can also deny ever touching him."

     Jungkook huffs in defeat as he plops back down in his seat, his posture slumped and depressed. "We can't just sit here and do nothing," he mumbles. He's already done that.

     "I'm not saying we should. What I'm saying is that if we really want to get rid of him and get Jin justice, we have to be smart about this."

     They sit in the heavy silence. He knows Mr. Kim is right, but he just wants to find Jin and apologize and make things right. He wants to know that he's safe at home and if he's mad at him, then so be it. He knows he deserves it after accusing Jin of being shameless with a teacher. He really dropped the ball and that's a bit of an understatement.

     "Would you happen to know who his friends are? Maybe they might know something, perhaps about him leaving. For now, all we can do is ask around and investigate and if he doesn't turn up, we will file a missing persons report."

     Jungkook nods. "I understand and yea, I know who they are. Lisa Manoban and Lee Jaehwan. They're in the same graduating class as me."

"Ok. I'll arrange to meet with them to see if I can find out anything. I'll excuse you from Ms. Park's class since I made you miss it but if you have another to go to, you are free to go."

     "When are you going to talk to them?"

"I have to find out their schedules first but I was planning to today. It's important I get information, the sooner the better."

"I want to be here when you do. I want to help. He's my roommate and I... I owe it to him," he says sternly and Mr. Kim looks at him with his lips pursed.

"Very well then."

Jin's head is pounding and his body feels sticky with sweat and something else he can't quite place, although he has an idea.

The last thing he remembers is Mr. Cho walking him out of the building, claiming to assist him to the nurse's station if any staff were to question them. His grip would tighten around Jin as a warning in case he tried anything. However, Jin was too weak to even walk as Mr. Cho forced something in his mouth and made him swallow it. His vision became blurred and he felt so heavy. He actually looked really sick so the teacher's excuse seemed legitimate.

His eyelids grew droopy and he became slower and slower and when he couldn't fight to keep his eyes opened anymore, he fell into unconsciousness. He's not sure how long he's been out and he most certainly isn't sure what day it is. He only just woke up a few minutes ago.

His body feels sore all over and with just the slightest bit of movement, intense pain shoots up his spine and he yelps before quickly settling back into his previous position. Tears fall down his cheeks as he feels so helpless and frail. He's startled when he hears a door open and shut and his heart begins to race. The footsteps grow louder as they move closer to where he is and when the door opens, he squints as the hallway light shines in.

"You're finally awake," he says as he closes the door and turns on the light. Jin slowly looks around as he forces his eyes to adjust to the brightness. This must be Mr. Cho's bedroom.

Despite the pain, he scoots away from him when he sits down to take off his shoes and he begins to undress. Jin looks elsewhere as he does so and he shuts his eyes tightly when the bed dips and he feels Mr. Cho's breath on his face.

He starts leaving feather like kisses down his cheek to his neck, Jin sharply inhaling through his nose and clenching his teeth.

"I missed you in class, baby. But don't worry, I'll bring you up to speed on today's lesson later," he mumbles as he trails down his body and Jin weakly tries to push him away, only for Mr. Cho to pin his arms above his head without so much of a problem or struggle. He feels the faint vibrations of his professor's chuckle against his skin.

"I miss the little fight you have in you. Fucking you is not as fun when you're unconscious. Your feistiness adds some spice."

Jin harshly swallows the lump in his throat, feeling utterly disgusted. It makes sense now why his body ached so much and who knows how many times he's been abused. But he's glad he wasn't awake while it was happening although it hurts just as much knowing he was used while he was out cold.

Mr. Cho raises Jin's arms up and ties his wrists to the metal headboard, running his sleazy hands down his body before forcibly spreading his legs and positioning himself in between them.

"Daddy had a rough day, angel. So prepare yourself."
