Summary: You're a fighter that only knows trouble. He's a college kid who's never even gotten detention. But despite being complete opposites, he's the only one who has ever shown he's cared about you at all.

---

Fighting was all you were really good for. You were expelled from school for it, your parents kicked you out for it, and you were stuck couch hopping from friend to friend in the group you hung out with – also fighters. It was at that time that you met Johnny.

Johnny was Jaehyun's roommate. They were practically like brothers. Johnny did his best to look out for Jaehyun when he could, and he started to do the same for you when you started living on Jaehyun's couch. Whenever you came home bloodied and bruised, Johnny was the one to take care of the wounds and patch you up.

"You're a tough little thing, aren't ya?" he chuckled as he dabbed at the blood on your cheek with a damp cloth.

"You should've seen her, hyung!" Jaehyun raved excitedly. "Took down eight guys all by herself! God, she's the best addition we've ever made!"

"Impressive," Johnny looked into your eyes as he nodded, giving you a warm smile. His face inched closer to yours, his voice lowering. "But stop making me worry about you."

While it did make your heart speed up, you didn't think anything of it. But as time went on, it was hard for you to not get attached to Johnny. You'd never have anybody care so much about you before, yet Johnny cared about you like you were genuinely meant something to him.

Maybe that was why you felt so fucking angry when you saw a group of guys shoving him around, taking turns punching him and kicking him as he grunted in pain. You could see blood dripping from his mouth and head, and one of his cheeks was completely swollen already. Just seeing him like that made your blood boil.

"Yah!" you shouted, tossing your bike helmet on the ground and storming over to the group of about ten guys. "What the hell do you think you're doing?"

"Why don't you go home, sweetheart?" one of the boys laughed.

"Unless this is her little boyfriend," another cooed as he gripped Johnny's collar and got up in his face.

You grabbed the guy's wrist, getting up in his face in return, "What of it?"

You felt a hand on your shoulder, pulling you to face them. It was a tall boy with hair slicked back, and a sleazy smile on his face, "Why not date me instead?"

"I'd rather choke," you stated boredly.

As his buddies broke out into oohs, the guy just raised his eyebrows at you, swiping across his bottom lip with his thumb.

"_____, don't," Johnny begged.

"Aw, he wants to protect his little girlfriend when he can't even protect himself," the guy holding him cooed before throwing Johnny to the ground and kicking him in the stomach.

You pulled your arm back and brought your fist forward, punching the guy in the cheek. He stumbled back with the force, tripping over Johnny's body and falling into the dirt behind him.
