"Bad Boy" Circus

It was all a lie

When I wake up I hear a voice it's Taeyoen's voice. I rub my eyes and come out of the secret room.

I speak in a soft voice "Taeyoen is that you?" I look around but I don't see her. I walk to the door and reach for the door nob when someone quickly spins me around and hugs me tight. I can't move. I hear her voice again.

"She believed what I told Vernon about the rumor being started by them. She's so easy to fool just smile and act nice to her and she'll think your friends." She laughs and the other person too.

I grip the person's shirt tight I feel tears running down my face again. I was such a fool why didn't I see it before? I feel a hand stroke my head I look up and see that it's V.

"How did you know I was here?" I ask him

"Shhhh. Don't say a word yet." He holds me closer and tries not to make another word.

They continue to talk and walk off. He let's me go and whips my eyes.

"I was right she was a bad friend." He smiles at me trying to make me feel better.

"How did you know I was here?" I look down.

"If you think that I followed you here you're wrong. I just had a feeling you were here plus you and I are the only ones that know of the secret room." He tilts his head in the direction of the door.

"Are you ok?" He rubs my shoulders with his warm hands I smile.

"I'm fine." I look down. "Actually I'm not how could this happen? Why would she do such a thing I thought she was my friend."

He puts his arm around my shoulder. "Who knows the only thing that matters is that we protect you."

"We?"

"Yea me and the rest of BTS. We weren't mean to you for know reason we knew she was betraying you."

"Then why didn't you say anything before."

"Well I did but you never believed me."

"Well I believe you know."

He laughs and smiles. "Come on school is over now let's go get your stuff."

"Ok." I walk with him back to class to get my things, but it's missing.

V quickly pulls out his phone and texts everyone that my stuff is missing. It turns out that Jimin thought ahead and took my stuff home with him so nothing happens. I sigh.

"What is it?" V asks me.

"Nothing I'm just glad I didn't have work today." I smile.

"Let's go." V grabs me by the wrist and walks me over to their house.

I look around. "Why doesn't Jungkook live with you guys?"

V stops for a second. "It's complicated."

"Oh." I look down following him. "Do you have to hold my wrist?"

"Does it bother you?" He asks picking up his pace.

"It's fine I'm just asking. By the way what time is it?"

"It's 5:30 why?"

"Oh no I have to go."

"I thought you said you don't have to work today." He let's go of me.

"I don't I have to make dinner for my siblings." I start to run and wave bye to him. 'Sorry V but I don't think I can be in the same house as you guys at least not right now.'

I barely make it home in time for Jae to drop off Nana and Shiwoon. I'm out of breath and smile.

"Thank you for picking them up after school. Tomorrow can they stay the night I have something to do."

"Are you ok you look like you've been through a lot."

"Yeah I'm fine. Just a little tired that's all." I smile and open the front door. "Do you want to come in I was just about to start making dinner." He nods and walks in.

I can't help but think back to how Taeyoen lied to me all this time and how BTS has been protecting me but why? Why now all of a sudden? What caused them to protect of me? What do they know that I don't know? Why are things getting so complicated quickly?

After dinner I make my younger brother and sister wash up for bed, as they do so I walk Jae to the door and thank him again. As soon as he is leaving I see V standing at my front gate.

"Who was that?" He looks at me concerned.

"My mom's boyfriend. Howdo you know where I live?" I look at him strange.

He laughs awkwardly. "Well we have to keep up a front so I asked Taeyoen. I told her that I wanted to apologize for all the things that happened." He smiles and I can't help but smile too. Something about his boyish smile warms me up inside it's adorable in a way.

"Well anyways why are you here? Do you want to come inside? Have you eaten yet?" I open the gate for him.

"Thank you." He takes a step then stops. "Oh I had a reason for coming here." He reaches for something and gives it to me. "Your stuff." After I thank him we go inside and I give him some food to eat. He ends up staying the night in a guest room that we have.
