Jungkook sat beside Jimin at home, eyes fixed on the TV as the drama unfolded live.

"This is ridiculous!" Jimin exploded, slamming his fist on the couch. "How can they pin everything on you?"

Jimin's protective instincts kicked in. "Don't worry, Kook. I've got this. I'll arrange bodyguards to keep you safe."

He rushed to his room, phone in hand, leaving Jungkook alone.

Jungkook's silence was broken by his buzzing phone. Taehyung's name flashed on the screen.

"Jungkook?" Taehyung's worried voice filled the line. "I saw the news. Are you okay? Do you want me to come get you?"

Jungkook sighed, overwhelmed. "I'm okay, hyung... I just don't know what to do. I never wanted anything bad for Min-Soo."

Taehyung's response was firm. "I'll be right there, Jungkook."

Jungkook's reply was barely audible. "Okay..."

"Stay inside, Kook. I'll handle everything," Taehyung reassured before hanging up.

Jungkook's eyes drifted back to the TV, his mind reeling.

Jimin reentered the room, phone still in hand. " Kook, don't worry everything will be fine"

Jungkook shared his location with Taehyung, who sprang into action, racing to his car and hitting the road.

Meanwhile, social media erupted with hate comments and disturbing messages, urging Jungkook to die.

Jimin continued his urgent call, pacing around the room, while Jungkook remained frozen on the couch, eyes glued to the TV.

Two hours ticked by, the tension palpable.

The doorbell pierced the air, and Jungkook swiftly rose, knowing it was Taehyung. He flung open the door, revealing a worried Taehyung.

"Get inside, now," Jungkook urged, locking the door behind him.

Without hesitation, Jungkook embraced Taehyung, seeking comfort.

Taehyung lifted Jungkook onto his lap, cradling him like a child.

"Shh, everything will be okay," Taehyung soothed, stroking Jungkook's back. "I'll take care of everything."

Jimin, still on his call, did a double take, stunned.

"Mr. Kim... how did you...?" His gaze drifted to Jungkook on Taehyung's lap, his eyes widening.

Taehyung's expression turned protective.

Jungkook sighed, gazing up at Taehyung, who gently pecked his lips.

Jimin's eyes widened in shock. "What... Jungkook, you and Mr. Kim are dating?" he whispered.

Jungkook turned to Jimin, his expression serious. "It's complicated, Jimin. But I trust Taehyung. I trust him so much."

His gaze returned to Taehyung, who smiled and pecked his forehead.

Taehyung's eyes locked onto Jungkook's, filled with affection. "I'll always protect you, Kook."

Jimin's face reflected his confusion, but he nodded. "Okay, Kook. I trust your judgment."

Jungkook's shoulders relaxed, grateful for Jimin's understanding.

Taehyung wrapped his arms around Jungkook, holding him close. "We'll face this together."

Jungkook leaned into Taehyung's embrace, feeling safe.

"I don't want you to interfere, hyung. I just need you here, supporting me and holding me," Jungkook said, his eyes locked on Taehyung's.

Taehyung's instincts screamed to intervene, but Jimin spoke up.

"I think the same, Mr. Kim. Jungkook needs our emotional support."

Taehyung sighed, nodding reluctantly. "But remember, Jungkook, if you ever need me, just say it. I'll do anything for you."

Determination burned in his voice.

Jungkook's face lit up with a smile as he hugged Taehyung tightly.

Jimin's expression turned worried. "The situation's worsening, Jungkook. People are demanding you leave the industry too."

Taehyung's gaze rose, his voice calm. "Don't focus on that. New scandals will emerge, and people will forget."

Jimin nodded in agreement. "You're right, Mr. Kim. We can't let hate comments dictate our lives."

Night descended, and the trio shared a quiet dinner. Afterwards, Taehyung accompanied Jungkook to his room, while Jimin retired to another.

As they settled into bed, Jungkook snuggled into Taehyung's side.

Despite his promise, Taehyung's mind whirled with plans to protect Jungkook. He wouldn't sit idly by.

"I'll do everything in my power to shield you, Kook," Taehyung whispered, his lips brushing Jungkook's forehead.

Jungkook's was fast asleep, feeling safe in taehyung arms.
