Taehyung isn't completely down when he walks through the apartment door of his new home but he thinks he can act sober long enough to convince his dad.

"Taehyung." Jakyung says from the living room.

"Jaki." Taehyung says. "I mean Jakyung. Shit."

"Where have you been?" She asks.

"Taeil lost my book. So..." Taehyung says.

"You smell like marijuana. And alcohol." Jakyung says. "Where have you been?"

"You didn't let me finish." Taehyung says. "Taeil lost my book so. We hung out with his older brother. He was drinking and stuff. But we weren't."

"You expect me to be that when you are obviously under the influence." Jakyung says.

Taehyung sighs. "Alright fine. What are you going to about it?"

"I don't want you bringing this into my home." Jakyung says.

"It won't happen again." Taehyung says walking passed her and into his room.

Taehyung was glad that Jakyung was a bit of a pushover and he knew she wouldn't mention it to his father.

Taehyung laid down and stared up at the ceiling.

Nothing hurt tonight like it usually did and he felt like he could do anything.

Like nothing could stop him. Not even what Suho did to him.

All that seemed to be in the back of his mind as he enjoyed his high.

He even slept that night without being shaken awake by his terrible nightmares.

When he gets dressed for school he doesn't feel like death like he usually does.

When he gets out front his father and Jakyung sit down at the kitchen table.

"Good morning." They greet him.

"Hey." Taehyung says throwing his backpack over his shoulder and heading towards the door.

"Jakyung was going to take you to school." His father says.

"You don't have to do that." Taehyung says.

"I don't mind. Are you ready?" Jakyung stands grabbing her keys.

"Yeah." Taehyung says.

Jakyung leads him out to the car and they both get in.

"Jakyung." Taehyung says breaking the silence.

"Yes?" She asks.

"I'm sorry about last night. I was out of line and I promise it won't happen again." Taehyung says.

"Don't worry. I know you're under a lot of stress with the move and everything. It's natural for you to act out."

"I'm not acting out." Taehyung says thinking it was a stupid thought.

"It's okay. I just hope you don't bring drugs into the apartment." Jakyung says.

"I won't. I don't usually do stuff like that. It was a mistake." Taehyung says.

They remain silent for the rest of the ride and Taehyung thanks her when they get to the school and he gets out of the car.

Hoseok waits for him outside and he watches the car pull off.

"That's her?" Hoseok asks when Taehyung is close enough.

"Yeah." Taehyung says. "And she's fucking perfect. I hate her."
