Taehyung's mind is a bit fuzzy on the events of last night after falling asleep in the back of Jungkook's car.

Now he lies in a bed, not his bed.
Wrapped in a blanket, not his either.

He goes to sit up but he automatically regrets it when all the aches and pains return.

   "Take it easy."

Taehyung turns his head in time to see Jungkook stand up from the chair in the corner of the expensive looking room.

   "I was starting to think you'd never wake up." Jungkook laughs flashing that bunny tooth smile that Taehyung's never been so happy to see.

   "I'm so sorry." Taehyung says feeling the need to apologise.

   "For what?" Jungkook asks.

   "Hoseok, he shouldn't of called you. I'm sorry. I-If I was a burden or~" Taehyung starts.

   "Tae." Jungkook says. "It's fine. You don't have to apologise. I'm glad I could help."

Taehyung sighs. "You shouldn't have to deal with me."

   "I don't mind. Are you hungry?" Jungkook asks.

   "No. I-. I just need to go home." Taehyung says sitting up despite every nerve in his body telling him to lay down.

   "Home?" Jungkook asks. "You're going back?"

   "I have to Jungkook." Taehyung says. "I have to check on my dad."

   "I'm not understanding." Jungkook says biting the inside of his lip.

    "I have to go back. Or I'll have nowhere else to go." Taehyung says.

    "We can tell someone. We can always go to the~" Jungkook starts.

    "The police?" Taehyung says. "I'm almost 18 they don't care about me."

    "Abuse is abuse Taehyung. No matter the age." Jungkook says.

    "It's not abuse if I deserve it." Taehyung says, he's heard his father spit those same words a thousand times.

     "No one deserves this." Jungkook says looking at how frail and broken Taehyung looks now.

Taehyung stands and even though his legs feel like giving out he forces himself to stay standing.

   "Please." Jungkook says before thinking about what he's asking.

   "What?" Taehyung asks in confusion.

   "Stay with me for a couple days." Jungkook asks.

   "I can't. It'll just make things worse." Taehyung says.

   "Just tell him you're with Hoseok." Jungkook suggests.

   "My dad thinks Hoseok's fucking me." Taehyung says.

Jungkook's expression is priceless as he paints the unwanted mental image.

Taehyung can't help but smile a little. "I'll be fine Jungkook. I promise. This isn't the first time this has happened. It's okay."

   "Still take my number." Jungkook says grabbing Taehyung's cracked phone from the night stand. "And I'll be there as soon as you call me. No matter what."

   "You really don't have to do this Jungkook. I'll be fine." Taehyung says taking his phone and unlocking it.

His eyes widen when he sees multiple texts from his dad from last night.
