The Boy Who Never Looked Up

Jeon Jungkook has spent most of his life surviving.

At school, he's known as the quiet boy with bruises hidden beneath oversized sleeves-the one who never looks anyone in the eye, the one who flinches whenever someone gets too close. He barely speaks. He barely eats. And after classes end, he disappears into long exhausting shifts at a convenience store just to hand every paycheck over to his abusive father.

At home, Jungkook lives in constant fear.

Years of violence, neglect, and trauma have left him terrified of touch and unable to trust anyone. He's convinced kindness never lasts and that people only hurt you in the end.

But everything slowly begins to change when seven boys from his school begin noticing him.
