Her breath trembled as she squeezed her eyes shut forcefully, tears falling down her cheeks painfully. Her fists were clenched against her ears to the point that her knuckles were turning white and her nails were digging painfully into her palm, leaving imprints on her bruised and scarred skin. She attempted to block them out, but they wouldn't stop till they got what they wanted.

She didn't mean it, but she couldn't help but do what she did. The voices were controlling her again, and she was so so sorry for what she did. But no one ever understood her, all they did was remain blind to the figure that stood before her, mocking and taunting her about her pathetic existence. 

A hand gripped onto her arm gently, causing her to flinch in shock and fear. 

"Don't touch me, please..." She whispered desperately, the words becoming a chant under her breath as her eyes remained tightly shut.

"Hey, it's just me, V." Upon hearing the one-lettered name, J looked up with watery eyes, shaky breaths escaping her lips as they remained parched and parted. 

Sure enough, V was kneeling in front of her, an arm firmly latched over hers, his body hunched over hers in a protective stance. 

J couldn't remember V's real name, but she was never able to remember anything anyways. This was all because of her stupid syndrome, that made others call her sick when she knew that she wasn't. That was why he had told her that V was his name in the first place, a nickname only reserved specially for her. 

And as of now, she was grateful to see a familiar face. 

V ran his thumb over her tear-stricken cheeks, a soft smile on his lips as he wiped away her tears gently. He knew that she was going through another one of her paranoia attacks again, and he had enough experience to know how to deal with it. 

"It's okay, I've got you now." He pulled her into his chest, stroking her hair the way he knew would soothe and calm her down. "I'm not ever leaving you, understand?"

"Understood."
