You had been keeping from Yoongi the abuse you went through for years. From your family and your peers, you never could escape it. If you told him maybe he would've understood why you flinched when there were loud sounds, or when someone got too close. Maybe the situation that was currently happening could've been prevented if you would've just told him.
Yoongi had been more irritated than normal when he came in and you'd had just gotten back from your parents after a brief, unpleasant visit. When he came in he slammed the door, the first action that caused a small panic inside you. You thought you hid it well from him, but he noticed immediately. "What is your problem?" he asked rolling his eyes, obviously annoyed by your state.
You said nothing and hugged him hoping to calm him. He pushed you off and walked into the kitchen. You stepped back and stared at him only for a moment before following him.
"What's wrong with you today?"
He sighed and motioned his arm for you to leave him alone. It was a simple action, and if it had happened in any other situation you probably wouldn't have flinched but due to the close proximity you were with Yoongi you couldn't help but jolt back letting yourself hit the hard wall behind you. His eyes widened when he heard the impact of your back hitting the wall. His first instinct was to go over to you and see if you were okay. When he reached out to touch your shoulder, you closed your eyes, with your breath hitching in the back of your throat, as you prepared yourself for whatever impact was about to happen. You refused to open your eyes and as you anticipated what was going to happen next you breathed out in a shaky, quiet voice. "Please don't hurt me."
Hearing those words hurt Yoongi, his eyes widen again, scared to touch you as if you'd freak out at any touch. He slowly placed his hand on your shoulder, gently pulling you into his arms. When you realized he wasn't going to hurt you, you opened your eyes which allowed your eyes to fill with tears. "I'm sorry... I'd never hurt you. I love you, God I love you (Y/N)..." Yoongi continued apologizing obviously regretting what had happened. You kept reassuring him it was fine, that it wasn't his fault. After almost ten minutes, everything was calm and you both resorted to cuddling each other until you both fell into slumber.
