He doesn't think I'm that fucking dumb does he?

"Hm Jeongin only allowed me to share that piece of information, he knows he can trust me with it and that I wouldn't share it with just anyone. But I can't tell you about Chan, it's his own job to" Hyunjin smiled as he stood up ready to walk towards his seat but was stopped by the younger.

Hyunjin turned around to look at the younger who was looking up at him with glossy eyes. He waited patiently for the younger to speak, but words never spilled from the younger mouth.

"Seungmin if you don't mind....I need to check up on Jeongin...you can come..if you want too?" Hyunjin spoke with a soft grin.

Seungmin smiled as he gave a slow nod, eventually being dragged to the front of the classroom, where Jeongin was sitting head into his phone as he grinned softly.

"Who are you texting?" Hyunjin asked as he tried to peek at the phone but was pushed away by the younger who was glaring at him. Only to receive a whiny Hyunjin in the process.

Seungmin stood awkwardly as he watched the two interact, threatening each other with pencils, notebooks, even an eraser. He couldn't help but to think about Hyunjin's words, maybe befriending Jeongin wouldn't be a bad idea after all.

"Jinnie...." Seungmin called out as he poked Hyunjin on the shoulder, gaining both Hyunjin's and Jeongin's attention.

"Oh yeah, Seungmin is here too-".

"Fucking idiot you let him stand there awkwardly, what a jerk you are....here you can sit behind me" Jeongin gestured giving Hyunjin the middle finger in the process, he earned a soft giggle from Seungmin in response.

"Omg yall are teaming up now?!".

"Yeah now sit yo ass down and wait for the teacher to come" Jeogin exclaimed hitting Hyunjin on the shoulder before giving Seungmin as soft smile.

"It's like 07:5-".

"HWANG HYUNJIN! You better be sitting still for the rest of the class!" The voice of their annoying teacher filled the room, making people groan not wanting to stay inside of the class any longer.

Seungmin tried holding back his laugh as he watched the older fight with the teacher, shaking his head as he pulled out his note book.

"Okay detention to you mr.hwang".

.........

"Chan! Pls help~" the younger whined as he tried taking of his school uniform, why did it have to be so ticklish?

A soft chuckle was heard as Chan helped him get rid of the tie around his neck, finally getting chance to breathe without have having to loosen the tie. Chan helped him out of the remaining shirt as Jeongin was quick to slip on one of Chan's oversized t-shirts.

"Wait that was why It felt like my closet got empty..you were stealing my stuff" Chan exclaimed as he proceeded to scan through the younger's closet, mouth hanging open as he spotted almost all of his t-shirts in there.

"I'm just borrowing! Sharing is caring!".

Chan glared at him playfully before going behind the younger, hugging him from the back. Jeongin leaned into the touch, as he hummed liking the affection given to him.

"Chan-".

"WHY THE FUCK COULDN'T YOU CLOSE THE FUCKING FRIDGE IDIOT!".

Both Jeongin and Chan sighed heavily, embracing each other as the younger's parents had begun fighting again.

The sound of things being tossed around would for sure leave the house completely trashed...well other than their seemingly unexisting child's room.

"Jeongin...you really need to get away from this house....tell me the last time you had a proper meal while staying home?" Chan spoke through the loud yells, yet still managed to sound calm.

A heavy sigh left the younger. Jeongin didn't know wether he could just disappear, he still hoped his parents loved him enough to care about him going completely missing. But at the same time he felt like a fool believing all of that. It wouldn't hurt to move out..would it?

"I don't know....it's just difficult, you know having to hope you're parents still cares for you...but at the same time knowing they don't know you exist" Jeongin muttered, leaning closer into Chan's embrace letting the older's cologne intoxicate him.

"Don't worry i-".

"FUCKING DIE IN HELL!".

"NO-".

A loud scream echoed through the house, as the sound of the door slamming shut echoed along with the scream.

Both Jeongin and Chan looked at each other but didn't dare to move, they decided to just listen to the screaming and whining coming from downstairs, trying to process what might had happened instead of checking up on his mom.

"Let's leave Jeongin" Chan spoke going to grab some bags but were stopped by Jeongin.

The younger seemed confused and hurt, and slightly scared. Chan embraced him in a hug, slowly running his fingers through his hair in attempt to calm the younger's running mind down.

"We're not leaving permanently okay? We're going to Hyunjin's place, you can talk it out with him, he would probably understand it a bit better than me" Chan explained pressing his lips on top of the younger's, before pulling away to let the younger breathe.

Jeongin nodded as he chose to stay quiet.

The thought of finally leaving his home made him feel bittersweet. He was happy he could get away from that violent house, but st the same time he had grown an attachment to the house too. He had never moved and grew up in the said house, so leaving was hard. Despite him hooking up with people or staying at their houses for a few days, maybe weeks, he still knew he would come home again...but this time he didn't know wether he would actually choose to ever step into that house again.

"I don't know" Jeongin hesitated as Chan opened his car door, gesturing him to take a seat.

Chan smiled softly as he placed a hand on his shoulder, calming the younger's running mind.

"We start out with staying there, and then you'll make you're decision. I know it feels foreign and that it feels like you're giving up such a huge part of yourself, but trust me, once you let those strings go you'll feel much better" Chan spoke calmly as he ruffled the younger's hair, grinning at the younger's small nod.

"Promise you won't leave me behind?".

"I promise".
