A/N This book is ending in like, ten more chapters? Maybe a little less? Either way, it's ending soon and I'm relieved yet sad. I just don't have that much motivation for this book. I just am ready for it to be done so I can see the finished product. I love this book, I just am so unmotivated to write it lol
"V, I'm fine, I swear", Jungkook giggled as Taehyung helped him out of the car. Taehyung had drove him home from the hospital after a weeks stay. Jimin had offered, but Taehyung had beat him there and told him not to bother. Jimin had, of course, pouted, but when Taehyung told him it was just another reason him and Yoongi shouldn't leave the bed all day, he quickly became okay with it.
"No, you're an injured bean, you need to be babied and helped! You've been in the hospital all week!", Taehyung exclaimed.
"I'll be fine", Jungkook smiled with an eye roll. They walked into the dorms and Jungkook was about to start walking up the stairs, when Taehyung scooped him up bridal style," V, what are you doing?"
"An injured bean cannot walk upstairs", he answered simply. Jungkook giggled and held onto him as they started up the stairs.
"Fine, but I draw the line of your helping hands when I need to use the restroom", he said. Taehyung let out a laugh.
"Fineeee", he sighed dramatically, making them both giggle loudly. When they got into Jungkook's dorm, Taehyung set him down on the couch, sitting down next to him. He pulled him close and kissed his cheek," Koo, can I ask something?"
"Of course", Jungkook smiled, cuddling up to him.
"What happened that night?", Taehyung asked hesitantly. Jungkook sighed deeply.
"Bullies", he murmured.
"Bullies?", Taehyung asked to confirm.
"Yes, bullies", Jungkook said.
"Care to elaborate?", Taehyung asked.
"No", Jungkook mumbled.
"Why?", Taehyung asked with furrowed brows.
"Because I don't want to make you feel bad", Jungkook sighed.
"Jungkook, if this concerns me too or had something to do with me, then I really need to know", Taehyung said seriously. Jungkook sighed again.
"I've always gotten bullied for being gay, wearing feminine clothing, and stuff like that, but the group that did that to me were angry because I'm going out on dates with you", he murmured," No one ever gets a second date, and I got one"
Taehyung felt his heart crack in two. He looked down at his hands. This was his fault, completely his fault. He was the reason that the only person he's ever cared about like this was put in a hospital after almost dying from a beating.
"I-I'm sorry", he murmured," I'll go"
"No, V, please don't leave", Jungkook said, holding onto his arm," I don't blame you and you shouldn't blame yourself. Please. You couldn't have known"
"Are you sure you don't hate me?", Taehyung asked softly. Jungkook leaned in and kissed his forehead.
"I'm positive", he smiled. Taehyung nodded and held Jungkook close. Jungkook turned on a movie for them to watch, which they cuddled through. A little over halfway through, Taehyung paused the movie.
"Jungkook, I want you to know that I will always protect you. As long as I'm living, no matter what our status, I will protect you", he said seriously.
"Thank you", Jungkook smiled, hugging him closer," That means a lot to me"
"I'm glad, because you mean a lot to me and I won't let you get hurt again", Taehyung smiled softly, kissing his temple, making the latter blush profusely.
"You mean a lot to me too", Jungkook giggled. Soon after, they went back to watching the movie.

"Ew, don't you know what a fucking shower is?", someone asked, pushing a teenage Taehyung into the lockers at their highschool.
"Bro, don't touch him, you'll catch something", one of his friends laughed.
"Shit bro, you right", the first said, grimacing as he wiped his hands on his pants. He resorted to kicking Taehyung down and repeating the kicks," Maybe we can beat some of the dirt off you"
"Why the fuck are you so gross? There's literally stink lines coming off you", a third person said," This is why you have no friends"
The beating continued until the principal came and broke it up. Even he couldn't help but grimace at the smell of Taehyung. The boy left school early that day. He was sent home and told to shower before coming back, as he was a gross distraction.
Taehyung could only nod and walk home. The bullies weren't wrong, he had no friends, and he was sure that his smell was a lot of the reason. But he couldn't help it.
He hurried home that day in the hopes he would beat his father there and get a shower. He had no such luck. As soon as he was in the door, his father escorted him up to his room and locked him inside, just like he did every day.
Taehyung walked to the clean corner in his disgusting room. His room was covered in urine and fecal matter, as he had no access to the bathroom while locked inside. His room's window had been boarded up, so he couldn't even dispose of it out the window.
He couldn't remember the last time he showered, brushed his hair, brushed his teeth, and wore clean clothes. The only time he was let out of the room was for school, where he for his only meals and liquid, and for his father to beat or rape him, which he did quite frequently.
Taehyung curled up in a ball, almost unable to even bear his own smell anymore, and cried. He cried himself to sleep that night, but that wasn't uncommon in his life.

"V, are you okay?", Jungkook said, waving his hand in front of Taehyung's face worriedly. Taehyung had silent tears rolling down his cheeks as he snapped out of his trance.
"What?", Taehyung asked, realizing he was crying, and wiping his tears.
"You were spaced out", Jungkook explained.
"Oh, yeah, I'm fine", Taehyung smiled weakly.
"Are you sure? You were crying", Jungkook said, cupping his cheeks.
"Baby, I'm fine. I was just thinking. I used to be bullied some and it just brought back bad memories. But that was in the past. I'm fine", Taehyung smiled at his caring nature.
"Why were you bullied?", Jungkook asked, laying his head on his chest.
"I'd rather not talk about it", Taehyung murmured.
"Okay, we don't have to", Jungkook said. They were silent for a few minutes before Jungkook spoke again," I'm hungry"
"Let's go make some dinner then", Taehyung smiled, happy for a change of subject.
"Okay", Jungkook smiled," Are you staying the night? I really want your cuddles"
"Whatever you want baby, I wouldn't mind yours as well", Taehyung smiled. He kissed Jungkook's temple and held his waist as they walked to the kitchen.
The two made dinner, which made quite a mess, but it was worth it, then went to bed. Taehyung couldn't help but think as he looked at Jungkook, quietly sleeping in his arms, that he was indeed the luckiest person alive.
A/N Also, can we talk for a minute about how much easier my life on here has gotten since I've started a once a week update schedule? I feel so much less pressure and stress and feel it's okay not to write every day.
