"The doctor is almost here. Bring her to the room." Jaemin said, pocketing his phone. "I'll go meet with him in the lobby."
"I don't need a doctor—."
"Patients should stay quiet and comply." Renjun cut off. He got up and walked to the door. "I'm going to get milk."
Before Namu could protest Jeno brought her into the bedroom. He laid her on his bed and turned the air conditioning up.
"Jeno."
"Are you comfortable?" He asked. He closed the curtains and turned the light on. He was doing anything he can to avoid looking at her.
"Jeno please look at me."
Jeno sighed and sat down on the bed beside her. He brushed the stray hair away from her face. His eyes traced the bruises on her face. He bit his lip and looked away.
"I know you have something to say to me." Namu mumbled. She carefully sat up and moved closer to Jeno. "I'll take your scolding with open ears."
He pulled her into a tight hug as he let out a shaky breath. He found comfort in her scent. "Where were you last night? It scared me to death when they said you were missing. What did that post mean? Why weren't you picking up?"
"I'm sorry, Jeno." Namu apologized. She gripped onto the back of his shirt as she felt the tears coming once more.
"Why? Why are you sorry? What happened to you?" Jeno asked.
"I was born." Namu sniffled.
"Don't think you're a mistake. You're not." Jeno consoled. "What made you think like this?"
"My mom."
The door opened and Jaemin walked in. "The doctor is— okay maybe doctor can wait."
"No, it's okay." Jeno gestured for them to come in. He pulled back from the hug and wiped her tears. He got up. "I'll leave you to get your wounds treated."
Namu held onto his wrist and pulled him down. "Please don't go."
"Yes sir, it's normal to be a third wheel in this house." Jaemin jokingly assured. "If you two are done flirting I think doc wants to do his job."
"If it's alright for you to remove the hoodie? They told me you have external injuries too." The doctor asked. Namu nodded and removed the white hoodie, leaving her in a tank top.
"Isn't that Jeno's hoodie?" Jaemin looked closely at the discarded hoodie.
"It's mine now."
The doctor began to apply ointment on her bruises and clean her wounds. Namu clung onto Jeno, squeezing his arm when alcohol was applied to the open wounds. He just patted her head in an attempt to comfort her.
He also checked her temperature and some other stuff to make sure she was okay. By the time the doctor was finished Namu had fallen asleep. Jeno tucked her in and dimmed the lights. The two joined the rest in the living room.
"She has a slight fever probably caused by over fatigue and stress. Give her some time to rest and try to increase her intake of water." The doctor said.
"Thank you." They all said. Jaemin handed him an envelope and the doctor went on his way.
"Where's Mark?" Jeno asked.
The door opened and a girl had run in. Behind her was Renjun.
"Jinnie?" Donghyuck gasped. "What are you doing here?"
"Where's Julie?"
They all pointed to the bedroom and let her run in. This time, it was Renjun's turn to give an explanation.
"She's Yu Jinae, my girlfriend. She's also uyujun, Namu's friend." He explained. "I told you guys I was going to get milk."
Before he could explain further, the door to the dorm slammed open once more as a frantic looking Johnny walked in. "Where's Namu?"
"She's sleeping in the room. Jinae's with her." Donghyuck answered. "How did you know she was here?"
"I called him." Mark said, trailing behind Johnny. "I thought it would be appropriate to call her brother."
Brother...?
"Johnny is Namu's brother?!" Chenle gasped. "The myth of her IG account?"
"Half brother." Johnny added. He took a seat on the couch and let out a long sigh. Everyone took a seat as Johnny collected his thoughts. "My father cheated on my mom and Namu happened. My father didn't want anyone outside of the family to know so she was kept a secret."
"Then how come on her instagram..."
"I made a deal with my dad to give her freedom to do what she loves. No one is supposed to find out her relation to my family except for the company and 127." Johnny explained. "She's so young and didn't do anything wrong. I just wanted to help her."
Everything seemed to make sense to him. The way she only referred to her brother, finally meeting her mom, and the words she said about herself.
We come from two different worlds.
He was meant to shine.
I'm not allowed to.
It would also explain why Mark has known her the longest.
Johnny fell to his knees as he bowed his head. "Please. Don't get mad at her for keeping it from you guys. You don't know how bad she wanted to tell you guys. Especially you, Jeno."
"We can't get mad at her for that reason. We're gonna get mad at her for keeping the bullying from us." Jaemin assured.
"Well now that we know who her strict brother is it'll be easier to take her out." Jisung added.
"You both don't have anyone to apologize to, hyung. What's important is you helped her. You're a good brother." Jeno said.
"Get up already it feels weird to be looking down at you." Donghyuck forced Johnny to take a seat on the couch. The elder just laughed, feeling relieved. "Don't laugh, you have to tell the rest of NCT. They deserve to know too."
"Take care of her guys. I never want to see her hurt." Johnny requested. "Also, why did you guys let them off the hook easy?"
"Easy?" Renjun let out a dark chuckle. All of dream shared a smug look, confusing Johnny even more.
"We sent the proof to the principal. They'll be expelled." Chenle said.

If it didn't seem clear, every time Renjun went out saying he went to get milk he was actually going to meet Jinae. I hinted it out with her username foaokfkb
