Fighting Love (Completed)

☠👀Chapter 14: Brian

    Trigger warning: violence and sexual abuse, mention of suicide 

The next morning Jimin woke up, he ached all over especially his hands and ribs. He climbed out of bed with a groan, staggering to the bathroom he showered and headed to his closet throwing on black shorts and a black tank top. 

  Jin had woke up hours ago and is in the process of making breakfast. Jimin walked into the kitchen, Jin turned and looked at him. Jimin looked at him with concern, his eyes were bloodshot, puffy with black circles under his eyes " are you ok?" Jin nodded turning back to the stove. Jimin glanced down at Jin's phone as the screen lit up, there is over a hundred text from Namjoon and fifty missed calls " did something happen between you and Namjoon?" Jin sighed "  it's my fault for thinking he was different, but he's like all the others. I guess I never learn my lesson" Jimin frowned Namjoon didn't seem the type to be after someone money but he really didn't know him well " so what happened?" Jin told him everything, after finishing Jimin is pissed " so he just wanted you to cook for him and he had the gall to use the word "fag" do you know who he was talking too?" Jin nodded " it was Jungkook" Jimin shook his head, " I think it's best we put some distance between us I don't want to associate with homophobes or anyone willing to use people for their own means"

   Jin sighed " Jimin, I don't think Jungkook is like that, you too are-" Jimin cut him off " Hoseok did a background check on him, I really don't care about his past but someone shot at us last night, how do I know he isn't in some gang and I just got caught up in the crosshairs" Hoseok walked in the room sipping a cup of coffee " he was but it was just a small-town bike gang mostly they got in brawls and sold a little weed. He was mostly in and out of juvie for MIP's, drinking, smoking, possession of pot, brawls. His worst offense was the possession of a deadly weapon. The cops busted him with a handgun tucked in his pants. Idaho is an open carry state so if he would've had it in the open he would be fine, so it's kind of shitty he got busted for that, but with his rap sheet I'm sure the cops knew him well and were ready to throw the book at him" " so you're saying his rap sheet is full of small stuff?" Hoseok nodded " look I know I made a big deal of it but you know how protective I am of the two. It may be small stuff, but brawling means he can be violent, and who knows if he still smokes pot. Throw in a gun and that is a volatile situation, but I've been watching him and  I think he has put the past behind him, I mean he threatened to kick my ass last night but he never swung once, he has control."

  Jimin heard someone pounding on the front door, Jimin is puzzled he wasn't expecting anyone. He rushed downstairs and opened the door to see a rumpled looking Namjoon " hey, is Jin ok? I have been trying to get hold of him since last night" Jimin shot him a glare, body stiffening with anger " he heard you on the phone last night with Jungkook, it's funny because you don't seem the type to use people but I guess looks can be deceiving. Stay away from -"         " look not to be a dick, but this is between Jin and me, so can I please speak to him " no" Jimin slammed the door in his face.

  Jimin turned around, Jin stood there a sad expression on his face.  The door thumped loudly        " I'm not going anywhere till I talk to him" Namjoon shouted through the door. Jimin glared at the door, " what the hell is his problem?" Jin shook his head " maybe I should just talk to him" Jimin shook his head "you had one of your episodes last night, you are in no shape to talk to him if you talk to him now it could trigger another episode this one being much worse since you're already on edge. I don't want to see you back in the hospital. Why don't you go lie down and try to get some sleep, I will clean up the kitchen and put the cookies away after they've cooled" Jin nodded not having the energy to argue.

  He hated being this way, he hated him for making him this way. Love for most people meant happiness for Jin it brought nothing but pain. He was sixteen when he met who he thought was the love of his life. It was a college party Jimin had dragged him too, he wasn't much of a partier but he had a few drinks and enjoyed the loud music blaring from the speakers. When their eyes met across the room. He was gorgeous, tall, muscular, sun-kissed skin, perfect white teeth, pale blonde hair that hung in his eyes obscuring his sapphire blue eyes. His boy next door looks had transfixed him. He was older by five years making him twenty-one to Jin's sixteen, by the end of the night he had lost his virginity in a bathroom, but he had been ok with it because he was in love. There were little signs from the very beginning. Their dates were always at night and never once did he meet any of his friends. If Jin wanted his friends to hang out with them, he always said something cute like "I want you all to myself" making his heart swoon. 

  Things started to change almost immediately. He wanted Jin with him all the time to appease his vicious sexual appetite. Jin always left unfulfilled and in pain, he began to dread the act. After a month he had had enough and refused, that is the first time he hit him. From that day on Jin became a prisoner. He couldn't refuse any demand or he would be beaten severely. He was smart, never striking him where anyone could see, but the rest of his body is littered with purple bruises. 

  Jin isolated himself, no longer speaking to his family or friends. Alone in his room, he began cutting himself on the inside of his thighs, Brian saw the marks every time he raped him and laughed calling him a pain whore. For six months he suffered in silence. 

  Brian called him demanding he come over because he was throwing a party for his friends. When he arrived at his dorm, he forces him to take a pill then stripped and told to lie on the bed. He felt hot, and the room swam around him, his extremities felt like lead he could verily move them. Brian let his friends use him and there was nothing he could do but cry silently as these strangers manipulated his limp body for their pleasure. He blacked out, eventually waking up hours later to a pitch-black room. He got up shakily. The dorm is empty, hastily he dressed and left.

  Arriving home he took a scalding hot shower trying to remove the feel of their touch from his skin, sliding to the floor he sobbed hysterically. He couldn't go to the police, his parents were both CEO of huge companies, they kept him hidden away from the spotlight embarrassed that he is gay. If this got out, they would be humiliated. He got out of the shower and dressed in layers of clothing. The layers of clothes made him feel a little better. Sitting on the side of his bed he thought of how much of a disappointment he is if he had been more attractive, better in bed, maybe Brian would have loved him maybe his parents wouldn't hate him, deciding he called the one person he felt deserved a goodbye. 

  Jimin answered on the third ring, even to his own ears his voice sounded hollow:

JN: don't talk, just listen. I'm sorry I've been ignoring you I just want you to know I love you and please don't be sad this needs to be done.

  He hung up and headed into the bathroom, opening one of the drawers and pulling out a small razor-sharp pocket knife. It would be quick and fairly painless. The knife is so sharp it will cut through his skin and muscle like butter and that will be the end. The maids will find him in the morning, still and silent in his bed. 

  A loud bang came from downstairs making him jump " Jin, where the fuck are you?" Jin recognized Jimin's voice and stepped into the hallway. Jimin eyes went to his face then the knife in his hand " drop the knife, whatever happened it's not worth it"  Jin dropped to his knees " it hurts too much I can't live with the memories" he sobbed out, Jimin dropped to his knees in front of him gently sliding the knife from his fingers and throwing it down the hall before pulling him into his arms " tell me what happened I don't know how I can help unless you tell me" Jin broke down completely and told him the hell he had suffered for the last six months. Jimin experienced a plethora of emotions as his best friend, more like a brother told him a story so horrifying and so disgusting it sounded like a horror movie but sadly it wasn't.

  Jimin wanted revenge for Jin. This dude had ruined his life. Jin has changed, he is scared of everything and everybody. The light had left his eyes, no longer did he laugh or smile. Jimin had pretty much moved in, there was no way he was leaving Jin alone, he was still concerned he may harm himself. 

  Jimin used Jin's phone to arrange a meeting between them, he expected to meet Jin but will get a surprise when Jimin steps out. They met at a local park Brian is surprised to see Jimin          " where the fuck is Jin?" Jimin punched him in the face knocking him to the ground "that was for Jin you piece of shit" he punched him over and over till a bystander pull him off. From the severe beating, Brian had brain swelling and is in a coma for a month when he finally wakes up he has severe brain damage and needs a full-time caregiver. Jimin has no regrets the bastard will never harm another person.  Since he was only fourteen at the time he spent a year in a juvenile delinquent center and was on parole for two years, he was forced to take anger management classes because he had told the police he had attacked him because he had harmed a friend, but he never named names.

  That is how solid their friendship is and if he had to do it again he would do it all over again, because Jin was his brother and no one fucks with whom he considers family.
