Stay with me/Yoonkook

Chapter 8

yoongi stared at jungkook's bruised body. scars scattered all across his back. some fresh some old some still bleeding. his trembling hand reached to touch jungkook's body but he couldn't touch it.

"jungk-" yoongi tried to say but his voice broke. his body trembled at the sight in front of him. jungkook turned around and looked at yoongi with tears in his eyes.

"tell me hyung, what did I do to deserve this? am I that bad son? am I that bad person? why did they do this to me?" jungkook asked yoongi, questions yoongi didn't have answers to. yoongi was feeling too much. too much anger and too much pain for the boy in front of him. he wiped his tears and looked at jungkook with a stern expression.

"Who did this to you? " yoongi asked, he was furious. he didn't care about anything at that moment. jungkook just shook his head and let his tears fall. he sat on the foot of his bed.

yoongi was angry but the boy in front of him looked so vulnerable and broken. yoongi could feel his heart break every time he looked at him. he took jungkook's shirt from the floor and wrapped it around jungkook's shoulder.

"Hy" yoongi said softly. he placed his palm on jungkook's cheeks and made him look at him. jungkook was taller and bigger than yoongi but right now he looked so small looking at yoongi with his teary eyes. he looked at yoongi with hope in his eyes, like he was begging yoongi to save him and that's when yoongi decided that he'll do anything to protect this boy. even if it meant killing someone.

"Please tell me jungkookah, tell me who did this to you?" yoongi asked more tenderly this time. jungkook just looked at him, and new tears started falling from his eyes. yoongi was quick to wipe them with his thumb. jungkook tried to look away but yoongi grabbed his face with both of his hands.

"No, you won't cry. and you won't look away from me now. you're not alone now jungkook. I'm here. you hear me" yoongi said cupping jungkook's face.

"tell me baby, who was it?" yoongi said, kneeling in front of the younger till he was face to face with him. somehow yoongi's words made jungkook break down more, sobbing in yoongi's hands.

"D-dad" jungkook said in between sobs but yoongi heard it. yoongi heard it very clearly. jungkook's words made yoongi burn with rage.

"I'm going to kill that bastard" yoongi let go of jungkook's face and got on his feet, furious. he was leaving but jungkook grabbed his wrist.

"stay. please" jungkook said, his voice small and shaky. he didn't look up but yoongi could see his shoulder shaking. the boy was crying so badly. yoongi let his anger cool down and kneeled in front of the younger again.

"jungkookah. hy hy look at me" yoongi said taking jungkook's hand in his. jungkook looked at him through tears.

"Please don't leave me" jungkook cried holding on to yoongi's hand as if his life depended on it. yoongi couldn't take it anymore. he pulled the crying boy closer to him and wrapped his arms around him, carefully.

jungkook was sobbing in yoongi's arms but the words wouldn't stop "please don't leave me. please don't leave me. please don't leave me. He leaned into his touch, allowing the older boy to hold him. He let the boy kiss his hairline and soothed him with soft words and touches.

"shh I'm here baby I got you I'm not going anywhere" yoongi's voice was his anchor, his body his ship - he wanted to sail away forever.

When he looked up, after a minute, or an hour he did not know. he realized that they were sitting on the floor. he stopped crying a few moments ago but he stayed there, in yoongi's arms, taking in his warmth. his head in the crook of yoongi's neck and his arms holding yoongi's shirt in a fist. and yoongi's arms wrapped around him securely, his fingers roaming in jungkook's hair freely. Everything was so silent yet so comforting. yoongi looked down at him with a tender expression.

"Are you okay now?" yoongi asked softly, siding jungkook's hair from his forehead to look him in the eyes. jungkook just nodded looking at yoongi with doe eyes.

"let's get you on the bed. your back will hurt like this" yoongi asked caressing the younger's cheeks. jungkook just nodded again without saying anything. yoongi helped jungkook get up and made him sit on the bed. he took the blanket and wrapped it around him.

"stay here and drink this. I'll bring you something to eat Okay" yoongi said handing him a glass of water. jungkook took the water but grabbed yoongi's.

"I want to go to sleep please I don't want to eat anything," jungkook said, his voice tired.

"you sure jungkookah," yoongi asked and jungkook nodded. jungkook finished the water and got in bed. yoongi tucked him in and sat beside him. they stayed silent for a moment and then yoongi got up to leave but jungkook stopped him.

"hyung, stay." jungkook said and shifted on the bed to make space for yoongi. yoongi didn't say anything he just got in the bed beside jungkook. once yoongi was settled on the bed, jungkook came closer till his head rested on yoongi's chest. he wrapped his hand around yoongi's torso and pulled him closer. yoongi wrapped his arms around jungkook's small body and kept him close.

"Thank you Hyung," Jungkook said his voice barely a whisper.

"Sleep well jungkookah. hyung got you" yoongi said and kissed jungkook's head.
