Everyone's eyes snapped over to Soobin. Jin's eyes looked horrified while everyone else seemed stunned. Soobin's narrowed his eyes, looking directly at Jin, "His name...is Sijeon. Might as well call a bastard by his name,"
"Sijeon hyung..." Jungkook repeated carefully, "You mean- the same Sijeon hyung who's been teaching Jin hyung dance for-"
Realization crossed the idols face. Taehyung finished Jungkook's sentence, "For five months...oh my god.."
"Soobin- what the hell?!!" Jin exclaimed.
"I'm sorry, wait- no, I'm not! he's a horrible person! More people will get hurt if he isn't gone!" Soobin shook his head.
"Sijeon hyung?!?!" Hoseok growled, "The same one who teaches dance?!?!?!"
Everyone turned to Jin for the answer. The idol shrunk under the gaze. Namjoon gently pulled the older into a hug. Two seconds after, Jin answered, "Yes, yes, him..."
"No wonder he never wanted us to bring you to the hospital!!!" Yoongi said.
"OR why he kept picking on Jin hyung during practice!" Jimin held his head.
Yeonjun suddenly gasped, "Sijeon hyung started helping with our practice too!!!"
"Yeah, he was watching Soobin hyung most of the time..." Beomgyu gulped.
Namjoon's grip tightened, teeth gritting. Everything was making so much sense. Pieces of the puzzle slowly falling into place.
"I've seen his body a few times during dance. I don't get why you're freaking out, " that was what Sijeon had told them when they saw how skinny Jin was.
Of course, Sijeon knew.
"Has he ever fainted due to exhaustion?" was the excuse Sijeon used to avoid taking Jin to the hospital.
Sijeon tricked them.
"I need to speak to Jin privately,"
Was what Sijeon had told them the day Namjoon found Jin crying and exhausted.
Gently, the leader released the older, pushing Jin to Hoseok, the dancer holding Jin softly yet securely. Hoseok watched Namjoon with surprise, as the younger pulled put his phone, "What are you doing?"
"I'm going to call Sejin hyung," Namjoon spit out, Jin tensing at the tone and hiding his face in Hoseok's shoulder.
Namjoon's face was contorted with anger. The phone rang and Namjoon quickly informed Sejin of everything, "Soobin told us. It's Sijeon hyung! The same bastard teaching Jin hyung dance for the past five months!"
Then another few seconds of silence from him, before he ended the call. Jaw clenched, Namjoon looked at Jin who gulped at the gaze.
"Why didn't you- Sijeon hyung?!?!? No wonder you always tense up! Or flinch! or stuttered that time when we first met him!! O-or never talked back to him like usual!" Namjoon was blowing up.
Sunghee stood up, placing her hand on the leader's shoulder, "Namjoon..."
Namjoon glanced at her. She motioned to Jin, who was shaking now, face hid in Hoseok's shoulder, the dancer worried and shocked. Namjoon's eyes softened with a sigh. Walking forward, Hoseok carefully pushed Jin into Namjoon's arms, the younger holding Jin tightly, "I didn't mean to scare you, angel...I'm sorry.."

Jin only nodded, soft sniffles muffled by the taller. Jin focused on the way Namjoon held him. Right, yet gentle. So scared to let go, but so scared of being the cause of pain.
