INTOXICATED (BTS AU)

The Lie

Hoseok licked his lips nervously. "Jungkook-"

"Don't." Jungkook put a hand up silencing Hoseok. He turned his glare upon Jimin. "Well, little brother, I'm impressed. I thought I'd gotten rid of you. But here you are fucking my boyfriend. I take it your boss doesn't know about this?"

"Jungkook, please!" Jimin cried. But Jungkook shushed him.

"So Hoseok, why are you here letting Jimin fuck you when you told me you weren't ready for anything like that? We're you playing with me? Sleeping with him behind my back?"

"No," Hoseok whispered. "Jungkook I swear I didn't."

"So why was I not good enough for you?"

Jimin stood beside Hoseok. "It was my fault Jungkook!"

"Oh, I know." Jungkook's icy glare turned to Jimin. "It's always your fault. Tell me, what made you think you could force yourself on my boyfriend?"

"What? Jungkook I didn't!"

"Oh, Jimin." Sniggered Jungkook. "I know what I saw. You raped him. Poor Hoseok! Look at him. He's so distraught he can't even speak! I guess you didn't learn from your first lesson. No matter. I'll teach you again."

Jungkook punched Jimin's stomach, sending him down to his knees.

"Help!" Jungkook screamed. "Help! Rape!"

Hoseok gasped and rushed to Jimin. Jungkook grabbed Hoseok's shirt collar and slammed him against a wall. He smirked menacingly at Hoseok. "Don't you dare tell them anything. Because if you do, trust me, I will kill him."

Hoseok shook, frozen in fear. He couldn't believe what he had just heard. But he knew that Jungkook was deadly serious.

And so Hoseok said nothing. He went along with everything that Jungkook told the nurses and then the police. All the while, Jungkook kept his arms around Hoseok. He was telling everyone the lie. Hoseok could not speak. He watched in terror as the police cuffed Jimin and carted him away. Jimin's eyes were pleading with Hoseok. Yet Hoseok was powerless to help him. There was no way he would let Jungkook hurt Jimin.

Once the police had left, Jungkook helped Hoseok into his bed. He took something from his jacket pocket and put it to Hoseok's lips.

"What's that?" Hoseok mumbled.
"It will help you sleep baby," Jungkook said sweetly, and Hoseok took the pill, fearing what might happen if he disobeyed. He was too exhausted and emotional to argue anyway. He needed sleep, and tomorrow he will try to figure out how to help Jimin.

If Jungkook can accuse his own brother of rape, then what else is he willing to do? Hoseok trembled at the thought as his eyes fluttered closed and he drifted into sleep.

Hoseok awoke to feel groggy. He looked beside his bed to see Jungkook staring back at him.

"Morning baby." Jungkook purred. "How are you feeling?"

"Fine." Hoseok huffed. "Why are you still here?"

"That's no way to speak to your boyfriend, is it now? Especially after I saved you from the nasty rapist."

"He didn't rape me." Hoseok snapped.

Jungkook squeezed Hoseok's hand until he cried, begging him to let go.

"I'll let you go." Smirked Jungkook. "When you admit what he did to you."

"He didn't do anything!" Hoseok whimpered.

Jungkook crushed Hoseok's hand harder.

Hoseok screamed. "Okay, okay! He raped me!"

"There see?" Jungkook let Hoseok's hand go. "Don't you feel better admitting it?"

"No."

"Don't worry baby." Jungkook hugged Hoseok making him flinch. "He can't hurt you anymore."

Hoseok's chest heaved as he sobbed. Jungkook took another pill from his pocket. "Here, take this."

Hoseok shook his head. "I don't want to!"

Jungkook forced Hoseok's mouth open and slipped the pill inside. He put a hand over Hoseok's mouth and lips, preventing him from spitting it out and blocking his airways.

"Swallow it, and I'll let you breathe."

Hoseok clawed at Jungkook's hand, but he was too strong, and he would not let go. Hoseok kicked and squirmed desperately for air. Eventually, he gave in, swallowing the pill. Jungkook removed his hand and watched as Hoseok gasped for air.

"There, that's better." Jungkook patted Hoseok's head. "The doctor will be here soon, and you can tell him how much better you are. Then hopefully I can take you home."

Hoseok knew that the pill was a strong painkiller. It dulls your mind, making you numb and drowsy. Hoseok had used them in the past when he couldn't get anything stronger. He knew jungkook was hoping he could control Hoseok better with the pills. And he probably could as they are highly addictive.

The buzz Hoseok felt from the pills did help him feel calmer after what had happened to Jimin. But they also hindered his mind. They were preventing him from coming up with a plan to help Jimin without Jungkook finding out.

A doctor stepped into the room, smiling widely. "Hoseok! How are you?"

"Jin?" Hoseok gaped at his handsome friend. "How are you here?"

Jin beamed at Hoseok. "I'm the new doctor. I didn't know you were at this hospital until I saw the patient list. Apparently, you've shown great progress." Then Jin's expression darkened. "But How are you, after...last night?"

Hoseok squirmed. He wanted to tell Jin the truth that Jimin is innocent. But Jungkook was giving him a warning look.

"I'm fine Jin."

Jin was surprised. "Are you sure, Hoseok?"

"He's fine," Jungkook said sternly. "He just wants to go home."

Jin nodded. "Well, after what happened...going home might not be the best choice."

"He will be fine with me," Jungkook answered. "I will keep an eye on him."

Jin frowned. "Hoseok, is that you want?"

Hoseok wanted to say no, but Jungkook's eyes were piercing his again.

"Yes. I want to go home...with Jungkook."

"Okay. Well, you have been granted discharge from the hospital. If you feel that you need to, though, you should come back."

Jungkook smiled smugly. "He won't need to come back."

"Alright." Jin pursed his lips. "Well, I'll need you to both signs a form. And then you are free to leave."

"I need to see my friends first," Hoseok said. "I can't leave without telling them."

"Of course." Jin smiled. "You can do that."
