First Love

Chapter 10- No More Secrets

(Yoongi POV)

Yoongi tried to organize his thoughts as he led Ji-Hyo to the car. He was beyond pissed after seeing what Taehyung and Namjoon had shown him and now seeing Ji-hyo crying, shivering from the cold and whatever Hyung-Sik had done. He really wanted to find  Hyung-Sik and punch him in the face, but as he helped Ji-hyo into the car, he knew that she was his first priority. He would deal with the bastard later.

Sliding into the seat next to her, Yoongi sighed as he watched her lean her head on the window, her eyes puffy from crying, more tears just on their way. When the driver asked where to go, Yoongi stopped himself before he told him to go back to the apartment. He couldn’t bring her back to there with all the boys asking her questions and trying to comfort her in their own annoying way, plus Taehyung had a big mouth and he would definitely let it slip about the picture.

Quickly telling the driver directions to his personal apartment, he sat back in the seat, stealing a glance at Ji-hyo. She looked emotionally exhausted and cold even with his coat around her. Making a choice, he pulled her head toward him and brought her to his shoulder, even as she tried to move away. Always a fighter even when someone tries to help, he thought to himself. Stroking her hair, he could feel her relax a little as he kept his eyes forward.

Once the car made it to his apartment, Yoongi helped Ji-hyo from the car and paid the driver before leading her upstairs. He never told her that he got an apartment on his own, he never had the chance since she left.

“I bought this place not long after you left…” he lied. In truth, he bought the place before Ji-hyo left, he was still waiting to get it furnished and everything before he brought her. He wanted to surprise her by bringing her to an apartment that she could relax in to, so they could just be alone. Before they would just go to parks, restaurants, and before that hang out in their parent’s houses, but once he had this apartment, they would have their own special place. He was planning on telling her in this apartment that he loved her, but then everything happened.

Yoongi opened the door to his apartment and cursed at the fact he didn’t clean up any. He still had sheets of music scattered from when he was working on his new song and tweaking some other works in progress. He still had his blanket and pillow slung over his couch, it looked like a typical bachelor pad.

Letting Ji-hyo wander into the living room, Yoongi went into his small kitchen to make some tea for her. He never used the kitchen much, he usually just brought take out food if he was going to work in the apartment, mainly because Jin always cooked at the other apartment. Going through his cabinets, he searched for a special tea he had in reserve for a situation like this, mainly in reserve for a special person. It was a special passion flower tea that he knew Ji-hyo loved. She would always make it when Yoongi was stressed and force him to drink it claiming it was good for him. He hated it at first, but because she loved it and insisted he would drink it. After she left, he would drink it more and more when he was over stressed, just to feel like she was there.

He heated the water while he strummed his fingers on the counter. The only reason he hated making tea is because it took so long. He wanted to check on Ji-hyo and see what happened with Hyung-Sik. He didn’t know if she knew about the kiss or if something else had happened. He just wanted to be there for her in anyway he could, and it would be a plus if that meant he could punch Hyung-Sik in the face for cheating on her.

Making the tea, Yoongi turned his head when he heard his balcony door open. Being that his apartment was so high up and that it was getting colder, he worried Ji-hyo would get cold so he hurried to bring her the tea, just to see her taking out her phone, her fingers on the power button.
Yoongi bit his lip, knowing that if she called Hyung-Sik, she would leave and go to him. He wasn’t one to get in the middle of a relationship, but knowing what he did now, he couldn’t let Ji-hyo go back to a man that didn’t know how to respect her. Practically running out to the balcony, without dropping the tea, he grabbed her phone and put it in his pocket. He had to keep her from him, if even for a little while.
