Sitting in her room Yuri saw a van with some lettering and a company logo. Continuing to read in her schooling book. Writing a few paragraphs, she turned around to see Jihoon.

"Jungkooks room." He said.

They all knew the drill. On the rare occasion someone had to come to the house Jungkook and Yuri would be locked in his room, the attic. Dragging her feet up the stairs she knew the door was shut and locked behind her.

Jungkook sat on his bed staring at the ceiling, glanced over at her briefly. She laid next to him, sighing. Wrapping his arm around her they laid in silence, both of their bodies close to one another, their heat radiating off of each other.

Listening to the small talk of Jihoon and the roofers Jungkook waited to hear anything interesting.

Holding her close he nuzzled his face into her soft hoodie. Quickly being disturbed by some loud banging sound. He saw Yuri put her hand on the floor, to feel the vibrations. She heard a faint sound.

"What are they doing?" She sat up.

"I don't know, hitting something. One's gonna go outside and look on the roof for damage they said." Jungkook replied.

"Oh. What's wrong with you? Normally I'm the one that lays in bed all day."

She swung her leg over him looking down at him.

"I don't feel like doing anything Yuri." He lazily signed.

"Is someone still out there besides Jihoon?"

"Yeah, they're talking about sports."

Yuri got up and walked towards the door, her next actions shocking Jungkook. Screaming at the top of her lungs she yelled for help, saying that she was kidnapped.

Jungkook shot up from the bed looking at her while she banged on the door.

"Help us!" She screamed again.

Jungkook ran over to her and covered her mouth from behind. He pulled her up the stairs and sat her on the bed, telling her to be quiet.

"Yuri, Jihoon will flip out! I don't know what he'll do. I know you're trying to help but this-"

"I'm so sorry about that. Let me explain in a second." Jihoon apologetically said.

Jihoon opened the door and shut it behind him, leaving the kind and jolly persona behind. Letting his true self come out. They could see the look in his eyes.

"What are you doing?!" He said in a stern tone, looking at Yuri.

He didn't care if she understood or not, she knew how mad he was.

"You know better than to make a scene like that for me to have to clean up!" He pointed at her.

"Did you make her do that?" He turned to Jungkook.

"I-"

Before he could speak Jihoon wrapped his hand around Jungkook's throat, walking him towards the wall. As he pressed harder on his throat he pushed Jungkook against the wall. Although Jungkook tried to fight back he was already oxygen deprived, and if he did anything to hurt Jihoon he would most likely hurt Yuri.

Jungkook gasped for air as his face started to turn red and he became light headed. He tried pulling Jihoon away from him, but it only resulted in Jihoon letting him get less and less air. His eyes getting teary he glanced over at Yuri running towards him.

Yuri started pulling on Jihoon as hard as she could. Letting go of Jungkook only keeping one hand on him he pushed Yuri away violently, making her fall, landing on her knees and side. Seeing Jungkook about to pass out, she panicked.

"Get off of him!" She raised her voice at Jihoon.

Getting in front of Jihoon, in between him and Jungkook she continually pushed on him, Jungkook was running out of time and she made a split second decision that she knew she would pay for. Kneeing him as hard as possible in the crotch, then she pushed him away. Then she turned around to see Jungkook leaned against the wall, sliding to the floor.

"Jungkook!" She grabbed him, while sitting on the floor next to him.

She held him in her arms, while tears ran down her cheeks. Slightly shaking him he made eye contact and put his hand on her arm, trying to let her know he was okay.

Although Jihoon was blazing in anger he didn't have time to express it, yet. He had a person in the hallway that he had to do some explaining too.

"I'm sorry." She cried while hugging Jungkook.

"It's okay, I'm okay." He spoke, could she even hear him, no, but he was still disoriented.

She helped him actually sit up as he saw Jihoon walk down the few steps. He started coughing while he still breathed heavily.

"You fell when he pushed you, did you hit your stomach?" He sighed.

"I don't think so." She replied.

"Good."

Yuri put her arm around him and tried to pull him up. He stood up feeling even more light headed and made his way to his bed. She helped him sit and sat next to him. He wiped away her tears with his thumb.

"I'm okay Yuri." He signed.

"I'm sorry I just thought-" She started.

"I know you were trying to help us."

"I just thought he was going to kill you! You couldn't breathe!"

"Yuri, take a deep breath. I was scared too, this is why we have to get out of here. I'd never raise a child here. Even if we have to go to the police and risk everything we are obligated to do what's best for the baby."

"I don't want this baby." She said, still crying while leaning into his chest.

"I know, me either."

Once Jihoon got downstairs he had to come up with a lovely cover story.

*** fix*****

"I'm really sorry about that. Me and my wife foster a teen, she's been through a lot, she's troubled to say the least. She has a few disabilities physically and mentally. Last week when the plumber came she did the same thing. But hopefully we'll work it out with her psychologist soon." Jihoon went on, making up a completely different story to make himself look good.

"Oh, that's sad, that poor girl, what was all the banging?" The worker asked, even though he thought the way Jihoon talked about her was a little rude? Or off to say the least?

"Banging? Oh she was throwing stuff, she does that when she gets angry. She's tried to run away before. that's why he have to cameras, for her safety of course. C'mon let's go outside and you can see what we can do about the roof."

Jungkook just laid on his side, he had bruises on his neck. He didn't want Yuri to feel bad like it was her fault, but now he was worried if Jihoon would come back and do something to Yuri.

Jihoon knew the only way to truly hurt and upset one of them was to hurt the other.

Walking up the stairs came Sooyoung. Yuri was still burning with anger. She stood up and charged towards Sooyoung.

"You married a monster! He could've killed Jungkook and if I didn't help him he would've! Is that how he raises kids? He strangled him against the wall, he has bruises!" Yuri angrily signed while looking at Sooyoung.

"I can't control what he does Yuri, I can't believe he did that but-"

"You don't love us, and you don't care about us."

"You know that's not true."

"If you love us then let us go before Jihoon kills one of us."

Sooyoung said nothing as she blankly stared at them.

"Get out! You hovering over him while doing nothing to help doesn't do anything." Yuri stared at her.

She rarely got angry, but she'd do anything for Jungkook. Yuri tried to protect him as much as he protected her.

Sighing loudly Sooyoung left the room. Yuri turned and sat next to Jungkook.

"It's okay Yuri, you can't do anything to change Jihoon or Sooyoung. We both know Sooyoung, well, she needs help." Jungkook said.

"He can't do that so he can get away with it." She replied.

"Unfortunately right now he can."

"Well I'm gonna give him a piece of my mind-"

"Yuri. Stop. Don't get yourself hurt over me. You don't have yourself to think about, you have a baby inside you and we have to protect that life too."

She just sighed sitting on the bed.

"Look, I know you don't want this baby, but I don't either. This is our child, and we will learn to love him or her. We're too young and definitely inexperienced to raise a child but that's a choice we don't get to make, it's happening and we just have to deal with it the best we can." Jungkook told her.

She slowly nodded her head and looked down. He pulled her into his lap and just hugged her, letting his hand rest on her stomach. Feeling her relax in his arms he just rubbed his hand up and down on her stomach.

Of course the child was one of the biggest shockers of their lives. But he needed her to stay positive, meaning he needed to start doing that first.

Later Jihoon came back into the room, fear could evidently be seen in both their eyes. Shutting the door behind him they both looked down.

"Translate every single word I say to her." Jihoon ordered Jungkook.

"Your stupid little stunt better never happen again. I don't know what made you think it was a smart idea, but you're not getting out of here that easily. If you pull another stunt like that Jungkook will certainly have more than a little bruise. I expected more from you Yuri."

Yuri nodded her head, she wasn't surprised he threatened Jungkook.

He walked closer and gestured to her to stand up, Jungkook doing the same and standing close next to her.

"You're lucky I didn't do anything else, to either of you!" He yelled.

She looked down, tears streaming down her face.

"Go help Sooyoung in the kitchen." He said, looking at Jungkook so he could sign it too her.
