Hoseok's POV

I woke up to hurling sounds coming from the apartment next door. The only disadvantage of living here are the thin walls, you sometimes hear things you wish you didn't. Like the other day, the apartment on the left side, i could hear... Never mind, I looked at the time and realized that I've got classes soon, and by soon I mean in thirty minutes. Why didn't the alarm go off?

I run around, taking a bath, dressing up, having breakfast then running out out of the apartment, only to bump into Mrs. Jeon who seemed to be in a hurry. I greeted her, "Oh Hoseok-ah where are you going?" She asked, "I'm going to my classes, you seem in a hurry, what happened?" I asked her. "Oh, Jungkook has thrown up multiple times since early morning, I want to give him the medicine, but I've got an urgent matter to take care of at work, I don't know what to do, I have to take care of Kookie, I don't know how long I'll be out, who'll be there to take care of him? I don't want to leave him alone, no not after what happened..." She finished. And as usual my mouth responded on it's own, "Oh I can do that" I mentally facepalmed at my answer i have fucking classes to attend, great going Jung Hoseok. Her face lit up," Really, you'll do it for me?" I nodded my head, unsure of my descision . "Oh thank you so much Hoseok you are an angel, I'll let Jungkook know you'll be there, check up on him in a while! there's a spare key under the carpet there, Thank you!" She ran away after patting my shoulder. 

I sighed in frustration once she was out of sight, I need​ to keep​ better control over myself, what did I just do there? I'm so stupid. I ran a hand through my hair. But I guess this is my chance, my chance to help Jungkook, my chance to become his support. To cover his scars.

~~

The whole time through out class, I couldn't concentrate. I was wondering how Jungkook would react once I go to his apartment? Did Mrs. Jeon inform him? I don't want to him to freak out. Will he be ok with it? My thoughts were interrupted when Jin hyung nudged me with his elbow. "C'mon class is over, we have some free time before the other one starts" he grabbed me and dragged me outside. 

Jin hyung and I have​ been friends since I was 14, when I was adopted by my current parents, I befriended him once I got to Seoul, at school. We have been friends for quite a while now, and he knows everything about me. "Hoseok where are you at? I asked you multiple times if you want to go my house tonight, we can have a movie marathon or something, it's been a while since we spent time together." He asked.

"Hyung I would love to, but I've got something to do today, I'm really sorry, but we can have it some other day?" I answered feeling guilty, for not spending time with my best friend. He nodded his head understandingly, he didn't ask anything. That is what I loved the most about him, he didn't force answers out of me, and gave me time to decide things. The day ended sooner then I expected it to, and I made my way to the Jeon's apartment. I took out the spare key underneath the carpet at the front door, and unlocked the door. I stepped in the apartment, it was really silent. "Hey, Jungkook, where are you?" I called out to him. I was answered by the opening of a door, " What are you doing here?" I heard his voice, it sounded very week. I walked towards​ his room. 

"Your mother told me to check up on you, she said you weren't feeling well, didn't she tell you?" He nodded his head. "Can I come in.." I asked unsure. He reluctantly opened the door a bit and I slipped in through the little space. I sat on his desk chair as he sat on the bed. An awkward silence settled between us. 

"Umm..So how are you doing?" I asked, " If throwing up after eating whatever you seems ok, then yes I am" he answered, his voice barely audible. I nodded my head slightly.
"Ar-" I started but got interrupted by him, "You still haven't answered my questions from yesterday. Who are you, and why do you keep following me?" He asked, his voice wavering.
"Look Jungkook, believe me I'm not trying to hurt you or anything, and us meeting is a complete coincidence, all I want to do is help." I answered in a calm voice.

"Help?" He questioned. I took a deep breath, I guess I should let him know that I know about him. "Look, I umm.. know what happened to you that night, and I want to really help you with the situation." He started shaking, his eyes watering up. "Pl.. please don't let anyone know about it. I beg you please don't" he was sweating and shaking uncontrollably. "Hey, Jungkook, I swear I won't let anyone​ know, please calm down. Take deep breaths, ok? I promise I won't let anyone know." I tried shushing him. Thankfully he did, once he was calmed down, I asked him if he was hungry. He answered with a quiet yes and I went to make him something ​to eat.
Once I was done, I took the food to him and sat down in my previous spot. Again, it was oddly quite and I didn't know what to do this time. 

Jungkook's POV

Should I let him in? He claims to know about my secret, will it be ok to give him a chance, I actually do not think he's the attacker. He doesn't seems to be one, his aura and personality is too different from an attacker. Will it be ok to give him a chance? Should I really let him in?
"Why, why do you want to help me? You can be one of those ignorant neighbours who don't give a shit about their neighbors, why do you choose to be so caring, and want to meddle in my life?" I asked him, there has to be a reason behind it all.
He spoke, "Because once I was in the same situation​ as you..."
