"Jeongin! Where the fuck were you? Class started 10 minutes ago and I had to tell the teacher I needed to go to the bathroom so I could come look for you!"

"Sorry, hyung."

Seungmin paused, blinking a few times while Jeongin kept his eyes down.

"Did something happen?"

Jeongin swallowed, looking overly uncomfortable. Seungmin leaned down a little, his eyebrows joined into a frown.

"Hey, listen, you can tell me, you know that right? Are you okay? Do you want to skip and go to a café, or the park maybe?" The younger quickly nodded and Seungmin grasped his hand in his own.

"Let's go get something to eat first, okay?"

The entire walk there Jeongin remained silent which made Seungmin increasingly worried. Something had definitely happened, something bad.

"A chocolate mousse, a blueberry muffin and two iced lattes please."

By the time they were settled down with their food, Jeongin had fresh tears in his eyes again and his scent was souring, which made Seungmin huff in distress.

"What happened, Innie?" The younger poked his mousse with his spoon, scooping up a bit and putting it in his mouth slowly.

"There was this alpha, he dragged me into the janitor's closet, and..." Jeongin blurted, then stopped and then started whimpering quietly and Seungmin quickly put the pieces together. He leapt up from opposite Jeongin to move to next to him, pulling the younger into a tight embrace.

"I'm so sorry baby, do you know their name perhaps? We can report them for... y'know..."

"I don't."

"You okay?"

"Yeah. He didn't manage to go all the way thankfully. But the thing is-" Jeongin took another mouthful of chocolate mousse and then a sip of his iced coffee.

"The only reason I'm mostly okay right now is because Chan hyung saved me."

"..."

"WHO DID WHAT?!"

"Wait calm down Minnie, he helped-"

"YOU MEAN THAT JACKED GUY THAT'S THE LEADER OF THOSE DICKHEAD BULLIES?"

"Yes but shush hyung!" Jeongin hissed, nervously bowing apologies to people of the public looking at them. Seungmin stared, disbelief adorning his expression.

"Why the fuck would he just suddenly switch up? His friends literally almost killed Jisung and he did nothing but watch and now he's helping you? It doesn't make sense-!"

"I don't know, but what I do know is that if he hadn't come then my story would've had a completely different outcome." Seungmin was deathly silent, staring out the cafe window.

He was grateful Chan had saved Jeongin but he didn't think he could ever fully trust the alpha.

Too much damage had been done.
