35: Fine, I'll Go

Begin - BTS

__________

Yeosang was wearing a hideous scowl the door peaks open, expecting for it to be a familiar pair that's like acid to his eyes. However the second his eyes met the familiar male entering the studio, Yeosang had to stop himself from shooting off the bed because of his injuries and that frown shifted to the most brightest smile Lisa has only seen when he's around the other male alone.

"Sammy!"

Woosung instantly smiles the second he sees the boy on the mattress, instantly running over to him and tackles him back on the bed, playfully wrestling him but making sure to avoid his injuries. Lisa smiles fondly from the kitchen as Yeosang's cute laughter bubbles the air, beyond happy to see the other male making her brother happy. That's what he needs after such a hard time last night.

They always did have a close friendship.

Yeosang yelps in giggles when Woosung suddenly holds him in a headlock and ruffles with his wavy brunette hair, "You are so annoying!"

"That's the spirit!" Woosung cheers, letting him go while wearing a wide smile that reaches his eyes, "How are you doing Little Gem? I heard you got fucked up last night."

To this Yeosang rolls his eyes and ventures a hand towards his black eyes and the busted corner of his lip with a sarcastic smile, "You don't say?"

Woosung slightly chuckles, happy to see the younger still sticking with his attitude despite the circumstances, but slowly letting it drop to a twitching frown, "At least from now on you won't have to face a beating."

That line alone caused a scowl to makeshift Yeosang's lips, rolling his eyes, "I'm not going. I'm not going anywhere he's going."

Woosung never understood this new found hatred Yeosang has for his brother. They use to be very close and had each other's back all the time.

Well that was before Jungkook left.

A low sigh eases out Woosung's lips, placing a hand on his knee, "Talk to me Gem, why don't you want to go with him? You both got along well before."

Yeosang refused to look at him, let alone give into going with Jungkook - that most likely Woosung will convince him in going somehow.

So, he opened up, just slightly, "You know why, he fucking left me. He left Lisa. Shit, he even left you knowing how crazy you were about him," Yeosang mutters annoyedly, his jaw tensing up, "Now he wants to come and be the hero to my life? Bullshit."

Woosung could hear the strings of sentimentality and anger in Yeosang's voice as he says this, almost as if he's highly convinced himself that this has been Jungkook's intentions the entire time.

To leave them and start a new life on his own.

As much as Woosung can understand why he's upset, he can't let him hold onto that anger because then that will just be his downfall for any internal peace.

Jungkook is his brother, whether he likes it or not.

So Woosung offers him a small frown and studies his face, "You know he's doing all of this for you, right? He's going away to get a stable job to get you and Lisa out of here. He would never just abandon you both here. You saw how badly he was before he left. We are talking about hunted down by gang members and your father. He doesn't want this type of life for either of you and he's trying so hard. Please just..... Think about it over, yeah?"

This exact thing is what Yeosang didn't want to let into his heart, the truth. He wants to stay mad. What no one knew is that what Jungkook left behind, all his problems and weight, Yeosang took the hits for him. There's things Yeosang hasn't told Iodine, and it's that he took Jungkook place in being hunted down just so his brother could be left alone. Those gang members took a whole week of beating him up, stuffing him with drugs, and using him as a punching bag, and he let them. He took all of that just so they would leave Jungkook alone. The mess with his father? He stopped looking for him after Yeosang offered to give him money every week for a while two months. That meant he had to steal some of Lisa's drugs with Hyunjin's help to sell them, and ask for more tasks to do so Iodine can pay him. His father never again became an issue.
