Taeyeon's POV:

I felt someone gently nudging me. I opened my eyes to find Kookie sitting on the edge of my bed. He handed me an ice pack. He looked worried about me.

"Are you okay, Taeyeon?" he asked me. "Yoongi-hyung told us all that you and Jimin-hyung got into a fight. He said Jimin-hyung hit you. I couldn't believe Hyung would hit you, but seeing your face, I believe it now."

I slowly sat up, worried that Yoongi may have told the other five members more than that Jimin had hit me.

"Did he say why we were fighting, Kookie?" I asked him, putting the ice pack on my face where Jimin had repeatedly hit me.

"No, just that Jimin was out of control and he kicked him out of here, staying with you to calm you down last night," Kookie replied. "I think he was just trying to explain to Jin-hyung why he was in bed with you when he came to wake you for school this morning and then why he said not to wake you for school. Are you okay? What's going on, Taeyeon-ah?"

I looked at Kookie. He was such a sweet guy, and he was the closest one in age to me, even though he was almost four years older. I sighed, knowing that my condition couldn't stay a secret for long between the seven of them. If for no other reason, Oppa might blurt it out in his anger. I told Kookie everything and I could tell he was angry, but he pulled me into his embrace.

"Nobody will ever hurt you again. If Jimin-ssi tries to hurt you again, I'll kick his ass with Yoongi-hyung. I promise," he swore to me. "Just promise me, if anything ever happens to you that leaves you hurt, you have to tell us. Promise me, Taeyeon-ah."

I nodded at him, not trusting my voice anymore. At that point, there was a knock on the door. It was Oppa. He was glaring at me.

"Get dressed, Taeyeon. You're going to the doctor. Yoongi and me are taking you in 15 minutes, so hurry up," he said in a clipped tone before looking to Jungkook. "I don't want you or Taehyung alone with Taeyeon in her room anymore. Please leave."

"B-but... But, Oppa! W-we were j-just..." I started.

"Just what, Taeyeon? Are you going to start in on the members of BTS next?" he asked me in disgust.

"Don't go there, Jimin-ssi," Kookie said in a warning tone. "Taeyeon isn't like that. Leave her alone."

"You don't know what you're talking about, Jungkook-ah," Oppa replied.

"Yeah, Jimin-ssi, I do. She told me everything. How dare you treat her like this as her oldest brother? I'll be here to support Taeyeon-ah whenever she needs me, regardless of where she is. And you're not going to stop me," Kookie said, getting in Oppa's face, before looking at me. "Taeyeon, I'll see you tonight after practice. I'll come check to see how you're doing. Good luck at the doctor's office."

He glared at Oppa again before he left.

"Are you already fucking BTS, Taeyeon? The way they are all willing to come after me to defend your honor..." Oppa started.

"Oppa! I didn't just do this! They made me! I tried to stop them, but I couldn't! I've never done that before they forced me to! And I've never done it since! I've never done this with any of the members of Bangtan, I swear!" I begged him to believe me.

"Taeyeon, are you alright?" Yoongi rushed past Oppa to my side.

Jimin glared at me, daring me to tell Yoongi what he just said to me. I was afraid of what would happen when Yoongi wasn't at my side, so I just nodded to him. Looking into his eyes, I knew he saw through my lie. He looked from Oppa to me and I could feel the anger coming off of him when he looked at Jimin. Yoongi held me for another minute and then let me go.
