- Tae's POV -

We were getting ready to go to bed and I realized I had school tomorrow. I quickly make my way over to my room, the one Seokjin is staying in (and the only room in the house). I couldn't just leave him here all by himself and not tell him where I was.

I stop at the doorway to find Seokjin looking at a few of the books in my bookshelf, probably trying to find something to read. I smiled to myself and then spoke up.

"Hobbit and Lord of the Rings are the best ones there in my opinion." I make a playful smile and look him in the eye.

He turned, startled but then puts the book he was holding back on the shelf. Slowly standing up, he looks at me with a little concern. "Do you need me to do something? If I need to leave, I can, it isn't a problem. I don't want to be any more of a burden to you than I already am."

I laugh lightly and look at the books, then back at him. "I thought we already went over this, Seokjin. You haven't been a burden and I don't need you to leave. I just came to tell you I will be gone for a few hours tomorrow morning. I just have a few classes and then I am done, so I will come right back here. I can leave you the name and address of where I will be at if you need me."

Seokjin blinked and then nodded. "Come to think of it, shouldn't you still be in school? You only look a few years older than me..." I added. He looked a little surprised but just shrugged. "I'm 23." He is simply replied.

I turned to leave but a hand gently grabbed my wrist. I turn my head back, my body slowly following, to face Seokjin. He looked down at the floor as I looked at him curiously.

Wow, he's really handsome. I guess I just never looked... I shake my head lightly, eliminating the thought.

He looked at me and then sighed. "You know, I feel bad about taking your room. I know you already said not to ask, but its not right for me to just come into your house and take your room. Please, you need to sleep well for school."

I blink a few times and then nod. "Ok" I grab his wrist and then jump into my bed, dragging him with me. "But you are coming with me." I turned and looked at him.

He was so surprised and I could see the little bit of blush creeping into his cheeks. He looked a bit embarrassed, not making eye contact. I smirk at his reacting and giggle. "Is there a problem?" I ask him.

I was fine with it, I mean I don't really care. I'm not going to kick him out of my bed, and if he keeps asking me, might as well say yes.

He shakes his head slightly and continues to not make eye contact with me. I softly laugh again and pull the covers over me, snuggling into the bed next to him. He doesn't move. I mentally shake my head at his uneasiness, smiling.

I take a deep breath and close my eyes.

"Good night Jin" I soflty mutter the new nickname I have him.

-Jin's POV-

I stayed up about twenty minutes after Taehyung pulled me into bed with him.

Wait, don't put it that way. It just sounds weird.

I was awake for about fifteen minutes when I could hear his breathing slow and I was sure he was asleep. I turned around to face him and was a startled to see his face so close to mine.

My expression softens and I study his sleeping face. He took me in for nothing, out of kindness. Not expecting anything in return.

...I should probably leave soon, I think to myself. He doesn't need me here, and after the help, I couldn't need anything more from him. It would be selfish.

I will tell him in the morning, I will be leaving. I truly don't want to be a burden, it won't be all to safe. My Uncle could come trying to find me...

I shake the thought out of my head and lick my lips, studying the face in front of me. He looks so peaceful. He's like an angel...

He probably had a great life.

Parents, family, love, support.

I sighed softly and closed my eyes. I feel self pity. Selfish, I scold myself.

Why did I have to have such a terrible life?

It is simple.

I don't deserve to exist.
