"He sucks," Jungkook said angry. Jin at the end decided to tell Jungkook everything.
"W- what?" Jin asked confused.
"Your dad sucks! That's unfair, he hit you because you got a B and a B is a good calcification, it's not bad. You did good Jin, don't overwork yourself" Jungkook said softly.
Jin nodded slowly. He was scared. "C- can I take a shower? Please," Jin asks.
"Sure, I'll give you some clothes, okay?" Jungkook said and Jin nodded. "Come with me" Jungkook said and started walking to his room. Jin following him by behind.
"Here" Jungkook said and gave Jin the clothes. "I'll get going, I'll make something warm to eat okay? I'll be right back" Jungkook said. He smiled at Jin a bit, he was about to start walking but Jin grabbed his arm.
"Don't leave" Jin said in almost a whisper, "I don't wanna be alone here" Jin's voice cracked. He was containing his tears.
"Okay... I'll wait outside the bathroom" Jungkook said while nodding.
Jungkook waited outside the bathroom, he was sitting on his bed thinking how could someone hurt his Jin hyung.
All that Jungkook was hearing was the sound of the water falling down the floor, he didn't hear his hyung.
"Minutes passed by and Jin hasn't come out" Jungkook mumbled to himself. Jungkook started feeling anxious about Jin, he was wondering why Jin didn't come out.
Jungkook decided to walk towards the bathroom slowly and knocked on the door. He wasn't gonna pass and see his hyung showering (naked) even if he wants to.
"Jin hyung?" Jungkook asked but he got no answer. "I just wanted to know if you're okay, you've been there for too long and I'm worried" Jungkook said with concern on his voice, his heart was beating so fast.
Jungkook waited there, he stood there for more minutes. He took a deep breath and decided to open the door because it wasn't locked. "J- Jin hyung?" Jungkook asked in confused but also in horror. He saw his hyung sitting in the bathtub crying.
Jungkook walked to Jin, he went inside the bathtub and started hugging him. "It's okay... Don't cry, I'm here okay" Jungkook said trying to calm down his hyung. Jungkook's clothes were wet and the water was so cold. Jin was even shaking.
"Let's get out here or we will get sick and we don't want that, right?" Jungkook said trying to change the mood, Jungkook saw Jin's marks. His body looked horrible and skinnier.
"Let me get you a towel, wait" Jungkook stood up and grabbed a towel, Jin came out from the bathtub and Jungkook put the towel around Jin's shaky and cold body.
"It's okay now, let me uh, get you the clothes okay? Come" Jungkook said softly but still demanded. Jin didn't say anything, he just followed him.
"Put on the clothes, I'll change my clothes" Jungkook said as he pointed towards the clothes. Jungkook went to his closet and picked some clothes for him. Jungkook was shaking, Jin just nodded.
Jungkook left the room to give Jin some space. Jungkook dressed up in his parents' room. Jungkook wants to help Jin but he doesn't know how, he's never been in a situation like this and it's really frustrating.

"SeokJinie come on, smile more, huh? You'll look prettyyyy~" Jungkook said while doing some aegyo for Jin. Jungkook is bad at aegyo but he's really trying his best to make Jin smile. It's been one hour since the bathroom incident and Jin hasn't smiled or laughed. Nothing.
"Jin-ah I know that you're not in the mood to do anything but please at least eat some food, does that sound good for you?" Jungkook said in a worried tone, Jin hasn't eaten and Jungkook is worried.
"I'm not hungry" Jin mumbled, "I'm tired, I wanna sleep" after Jungkook heard that he nodded. Jungkook wanted to watch the movie that he was gonna watch with Jin but he can't. Jin is not in the mood for that.
"Jin listen to me please" Jungkook sighed. "I hate to see you like this, I really do. But I really think you should eat, you look... Unhealthy. You need to eat, to be and feel stronger. You can get sick, and when you were showering the water was so cold and you didn't eat. It's obvious that you will feel weak, or bad" Jungkook said in the most understanding tone possible.
"I- I'm not hungry" Jin lied.
Jungkook sighed in disbelief, he didn't believe what Jin said but he can't bother the Jin with that, "okay... Let's go to sleep then" Jungkook smiled a bit. They are in the living room. They are sitting on the couch so, Jungkook grabbed Jin's cold hand and walked him towards his room. Jungkook knows that Jin is not okay, even if Jin pretends to be.
Jungkook knows that because he does it too, most of the time. It's hard to help someone when you can't help yourself, or say "it'll be okay" because you don't believe it yourself.
Jungkook doesn't want Jin to sleep alone. Jin might be scared. Jungkook opened the door of the room and told Jin to lay down and try to sleep. Jungkook just sat beside him and started singing to make him sleep.
He sang "beautiful"
When he finished singing Jin was already asleep, so he decided to hug Jin and try to sleep. Because Jungkook was tired too. Before sleeping completely Jungkook said "I love you" to Jin and kissed his forehead.
He tries really hard... Too much. He loves Jin and even if Jin feels the same way as him or not Jungkook knows that Jin appreciates him.
Maybe not as a boyfriend or friend, maybe as a brother. Which is worse for Jungkook... Because if Jin likes Jungkook as a brother that means that maybe Jin will never like him.
Because you can't like your brother, right?
Haha... Just kidding, unless?
We will never know.
