The next morning, Jimin woke up to his phone ringing and Jin yelling at him. "Jimin answer your phone!" He heard his friend yelling from the other room.

Jimin tiredly sat up and blindly searched for his phone as his eyes were still shut. He answered and waited. "Hey, Jimin." He heard Hoseok say. "Hey, Hoseok. Why are you calling me so early?" Jimin asked. "It's 8:00 Jimin." Hoseok laughed.

Jimin's eyes shot opened as he stared at the clock in horror. Class started in thirty minutes. "Shit, shit I'm gonna be late to class." Jimkn got out of bed and began scurrying around to get ready.

"Jimin can I take you out to lunch today, I need to talk to you. It's really, really important." Hoseok said. Jimin sighed. "I guess, but can you pick me up?" Jimin asked. "Sure I can." He said and Jimin hung up, continuing to get ready.

His phone buzzed again and this time, it was money he'd received. He gasped, struggling to breath when he saw how much he'd received, $8,000 from all that time he spent with Yoongi and probably from being his boyfriend now.

Jimin quickly put his shoes and jacket on. Before grabbing his backpack and rushing off to class. On his way there, he passed that club which he was glad he didn't see the guy, well, until someone grabbed his backpack and pulled him into the alley way.

He gasped quietly seeing the older man, a smirk on his lips. "You think you can run from me, boy?" He asked. Jimin began shaking as he pushed the man off him. "Come on, you can do me a favor and get $10,000 out of it. I k ow how much you need the money." He smirked. His breath smelled of cigarettes and alcohol.

"Leave me alone!" Jimin pushes him away and ran off. "You'll regret that!" The man called after him. Jimin made it to class just on time, sitting with Jungkook. "Where were you?" He asked. "Just r-running a little late." Jimin was still visibly shaking.

"What's the matter?" Jungkook asked. "N-nothing, it's nothing." Jimin's eyes were glazing over with tears but he stopped them. Jungkook frowned slightly. "If something is wrong, just tell me. I'm here for you too." Jungkook said and Jimin nodded.

Class began and Jimin couldn't focus. He'd never stop running into that man before something really bad happened. He still didn't know if he should tell anyone, especially Yoongi. Hell, he didn't know what Yoongi was capable of doing to people, seeing how easily angry he got with people who messed with Jimin.

After class, Jimkn left the building and Hoseok was in his car waiting. Jimin got in and sighed quietly. "Hey, cutie." Hoseok said. "Please dont call me that." Jimin mumbled. "What's wrong?" Hoseok asked. "Nothing, just d-don't call me that." Jimin mumbled.

At the restaurant, Jimin wasn't eating much which worries Hoseok. "Jimin, what's going on? You're unusual behavior is scaring me." Hoseok said. "Nothing. You said you had to talk to me about something important, right?" Jimin asked and Hoseok nodded.

"Jimin, I know we haven't seen each other in a while but I just wanted to know if, you'd be my boyfriend?" Hoseok asked. Jimin's heart broke for Hoseok. As much as he wanted to return his feelings, he couldn't. He had Yoongi now and it was going to stay that way.

"Hoseok, I...." Jimin didn't know how to reject him. Hoseok narrowed his eyes. "I wish I could but...I'm dating somebody already." Jimin said. "Don't tell me you're dating-" "Yes, I'm dating Yoongi." Jimin said.

Hoseok clearly was angry at that. "Jimin, he's not safe to be around. He could hurt you at anytime, you realize?" Hoseok said. "What do you mean?!" Jimin snapped. "I really hope your not making stuff up just because you're jealous." Jimin said.

"I'm not!" Hoseok frowned. "I'm trying to save you but clearly you don't want my help." Hoseok said. "You know what, it was really nice knowing you, but I'm done talking to you." Jimin stood up. "And don't send me any of your stupid money." Jimin gritted his teeth as he walked off angrily.

He really couldn't tell if Hoseok was lying or telling the truth. Was Yoongi really a bad person? Jimin didn't want to think he was.

Jimin made it back to his dorm, Jin not there. He began tearing up again before finally bursting into tears. He didn't know what to do in the situation. He didn't know who to trust at this point and it was beginning to hurt him.

Jin came home fifteen minutes later, hearing small cries from Jimin's room. He opened the door and saw Jimin crying, his heart aching for the boy. "Jimin what's the matter?" Jin rushed over to his bed and hugged him.

Jimin didn't respond but kept crying his little eyes out, Jin grabbing Jimin's phone to call Yoongi.

Yoongi has just gotten done with work when he received a phone call from Jimin. He answered. "Jimin?" He said. "Hey, this is Jin calling from Jimin's phone. You need to come over, like now." Jin said in a panicked tone.

"Why is everything okay? Is Jimin okay?" Yoongi's heart rate sped up significantly. He rushed to his car and got in and began driving to the apartment complex. "I don't know, he was crying real hard when I got home and he wouldn't talk to me. He's still sobbing really hard and I didn't know what to do but call you." Jin said.

"I'm on my way now." Yoongi said and hung up.

Once there, he raced up to their room, knocking a few times before Jin answered and guided him to Jimin's room. Jimin sniffled and looked up at Yoongi who's sat on the bed beside him.

The younger instantly wrapped his arms around Yoongi, crying into his shoulder. Yoongi hugged him back tightly, rubbing small circles on his back.

"I'm here, baby, don't cry." He whispered in his ear. Jin decides to leave them alone for the time being, planning to talk to Jimin later once he calmed down.

"What's the matter, baby? Please tell me what's going on, I'm here for you Jimin." Yoongi whispered, planting a soft kiss on the younger's cheek. Jimin lifted his head, Yoongi caressing his face and wiping away each tear that fell from his swollen, pink eyes.

"What made you cry this hard, hmm?" Yoongi asked, Jimin sniffling a lot as he  rested his head back on Yoongi's shoulder. Yoongi was quieter for a while, letting Jimin calm down a little more.

"Shhhhh, it's okay baby, I got you." Yoongi whispered softly, Jimin finally calming down. He lifted his head back up, Yoongi caressing it gently as he looked into the smaller boy's eyes. "Y-Yoongi..." He mumbled. "I got you, I'm not gonna let go of you." Yoongi whispered, leaning forward and kissing Jimin's warm forehead.

"What happened?" Yoongi asked. Jimin went on to explain to two occurrences with the older man sexually harassing him and the fact Hoseok was messing with Jimin's trust. "And at this p-point, I don't know w-what to do o-or who to trust anymore." Jimin began crying again.

"Look at me, baby." Yoongi said quietly. "Do you trust me?" Yoongi asked, making Jimin look into his eyes. "I don't k-know." Jimin murmured. That hurt, a lot, though Yoongi didn't let it show. He hated the fact that Hoseok was trying to manipulate his baby into thinking he was dangerous or not trustworthy.

"I'm sorry, I'm s-sor-" "Don't apologize baby. I understand why it's hard for you to trust me." Yoongi said. "Yoongi I d-do I just..." Jimin burst into tears yet again. "I'm s-scared." Jimin sniffled.

"Why are you scared?" Yoongi asked. "That m-man. He grabbed m-me and t-tried to force me to d-do things with him but I ran away." Jimin cried.

"Nobody even noticed. Nobody saw and i-it made me feel so disgusting." Jimin sobbed. "Shhh, if anyone touches you like that again, I'll beat the shit out of them." Yoongi gritted his teeth.
He didn't want anyone hurting Jimin Yoongi wouldn't always be there to protect Jimin.
