The Truth Untold

10

*i feel like this whole story is so badly plotted rip. also here's a picture of jimin to satisfy your needs*

Jimin's Pov:

"What did you just say..?" I mumbled.

Taehyung looked away before hesitating to speak once again. I looked him dead in the eye and felt jealousy wash over me.

"I said Jungkook likes Isabelle.. he told me this not too long ago. About 10 minutes ago. They've known each other for a while now, since they go to school together of course. Trust me, it's not the first time he's been over her house either."

He backed away from me and walked towards the door, but stopped to look up at the ceiling.

"We both know who's behind this correct?" Tae muttered, clutching his fists.

I let out a muffled yes before Taehyung reached for the door handle. He opened it and walked out leaving me left in Isabelle's room. I sighed heavily and fell back onto her bed placing my arms over my face.

What am I supposed to do? Jungkook likes Isabelle— he freaking saved her. What if she fell for him before me? What if she didn't like me at all? What could I do?

"Jimin..?"

My thoughts stopped when I felt a warm hand against my arm. I moved and seen Isabelle standing before me with an innocent look in her eye. I felt butterflies roam around in my stomach as I sat up slowly. She smiled and put my arm around her neck making me getting up.

"C'mon sleepy head.. let's get you to bed." she mumbled giving me chills down my spine.

She walked me to my room and moved the covers, allowing my to sit properly. She fixed the bed some and played with her hair, excusing herself for the long wait.

"Don't worry about changing, just get some rest please. I'm sure you're really tired Jimin."

She smiled at me once more before turning around to head towards the door. She stopped and ran back over to me, placing a soft kiss on my forehead.

"Thank you." she whispered in my ear before placing her hand on my mine.

It slipped away and she closed the door behind her. The room was silent as I made myself comfortable within my bed. A lot of thoughts were rushing through my head at that moment, too many to completely focus on and that was okay. I just needed rest, Isabelle was right. Usually she was.

As I laid my head against the pillow, my phone buzzed. Twice actually, making me eager to check who it was from. I turned on my phone to see a missed call and text message from my father. I froze in my place and gulped at this.. since when has he figured to check up on me?

Dad: "I don't know who you think you are to be hiding from me, but I will find you. I already got to your little girlfriend.. your friends are next."

I dropped my phone on the bed and quickly took an screenshot, sending it to Taehyung. Instead of answering back I just decided to leave him on read, in fear that anything else I say would piss him off.

How the hell did he find out? And attacking Isabelle? That was way over the line. I knew what needed to be done to protect her, to protect my friends. I had to go back home.. whether I liked it or not.

~Time Lapse~

I checked the time to see that was it was 6 AM. Perfect. No one was up, no one was there to disturb, and it gave me enough time to get ready to see my father once again. I just had to be super quiet. Taehyung and Jungkook were the only ones who knew about this; yes I planned on telling Isabelle, but I've decided to keep it a secret for now until I got more information.

I got in the car after writing a note to slip under Isabelle's door about my whereabouts. Taking a deep breath, I pulled out of the driveway and made my way towards my house, somewhat hoping my dad would be there. I had this weird feeling in my gut that this was a bad idea, that I could get hurt or worse.. but if it was to protect Isabelle it was what I had to do. There's no backing down now.

As I drove towards the exit of the highway my phone began to buzz constantly, making me wonder who was texting me this early in the morning. Since I can't text and drive, I've decided to ignore it for now and check when I reach my home.

*Oh how he'll soon wish he would've checked it earlier.*

20 minutes later, I pulled into the driveway of what was once my home. I hoped and prayed the whole way there that nothing bad would happen, but I knew it wasn't always this way. I got out of the car and walked towards the door. My dad's car was parked on the side of the street and the house door was cracked open.

I hesitantly walked in and looked around, grabbing the bat that was besides the coat rack. I closed the door behind me and noticed bottles of beer scattered around the kitchen floor and discarded cigarette buds. The whole house smelled of smoke and dead people.. it was terrible.

"Hello dear son.."

I turned towards the stairs to see my dad standing there, bags under his eyes and his hair all messy with a grayish color almost. He walked down the remaining steps and got close to me, taking the bat from my hands.

"I see you've come back.. must've seen my text huh?"

I froze in my place and gulped. I didn't know how to respond to his sentence. What could I say?

"I swear to god Dad if you touch Isabelle one more time or anyone I care about you're gonna regret it." I mumbled under my gritted teeth.

My dad stopped walking around me and gave me a small glare.

"Oh really..?"

It was quiet for a second until I felt a hard slap of wood against my face, causing me to fall onto the ground. I yelled in pain and grabbed my face feeling nothing but pain rush through my nervous system. I looked back up realizing another blow was coming, and before I knew it, I was hit once again on my thigh.

"Dad please! Stop!" I pleaded, backing away onto the wall.

He kicked and punched at me until tears fled down my eyes.. when he quickly turned away, I made a run for it and ran up the stairs into my room. I closed the door and locked it, hiding in the closet.

My heart beat out of my chest as I tired to pace myself unclocking my phone.. but that's when I saw the messages.

"They tried warn me before it was too late.."

I received countless messages from Taehyung and Jungkook, telling me to turn back around or that what I was doing wasn't safe. But now it was too late to listen. Too late to turn back, I was trapped and I didn't know what to do. He's gotten stronger, angrier.. but I'd rather him take it out on me than my own siblings. Even if it killed me.

My thoughts were interrupted when my bedroom door suddenly bust open, and I could hear his heavy breaths at the door as he tapped the frame with the bat.

"Oh Jiminie, please don't hide.. I know you're in here." He murmured evilly, beginning to walk.

I heard his footsteps trail towards the closet I was in as I struggled to type the last few words that would be sent to Jungkook and Tae.

"I'm so sorry guys. Tell Isabelle that I really liked her, tell the kids that I love them both dearly.. you guys are the best. Thanks for everything. Goodbye.."

And with that finally text, the closet door swung open to reveal my angry father. His face was red as a tomato and i could hear his harsh breaths as he cracked his neck.

"Goodbye, Jiminie."

He lifted the bat over his head, giving me one last smile. The last thing I could hear was the smack from the impact against my skin, while the phone rang by my unconscious body.

Am I dead..?
