"You never told me what happened after you got Taehyung." Hoseok says as he and Jungkook lay on Hoseok's couch watching TV.

"Oh." Jungkook says not really paying Hoseok any mind as he looks at his phone.

"What happened?" Hoseok asks.

"He was high." Jungkook says.

"I know that. But did anything else happen?" Hoseok asks.

"I asked him on a date." Jungkook says.

"Jungkook. Tell me something I don't know." Hoseok says.

Jungkook sighs sitting his phone down. "He was really out of it. He told me he had a secret to tell me."

"What was it?" Hoseok asks.

"He didn't say. But he made me pinky promise that I wouldn't tell." Jungkook says. "And he kissed me."

Hoseok gasps dramatically sitting up. "He didn't."

"Don't be so dramatic." Jungkook rolls his eyes checking his phone.

"That's great! It's happening." Hoseok says. "And everyone doubted me."

Jungkook smiles at the message from Taehyung as Hoseok happily rambles.

"You're texting him aren't you? Oh my gosh." Hoseok says laying back down and clutching his heart.

"Shut up Hobi." Jungkook says still smiling despite himself.

"How was the date?" Hoseok asks.

"It was good." Jungkook says laying his phone on his chest. "He said he liked me too."

"And he stayed with you overnight?" Hoseok asks.

"Yeah. It was late so." Jungkook says.

"What happened when you guys woke up?" Hoseok asks leaning in eagerly awaiting an answer.

"Nothing. I took him home." Jungkook says chuckling at Hoseok's behavior.

"I have to call him." Hoseok says sitting up.

"Don't be extra Hobi." Jungkook says.

"Fine. But I'm calling when you're gone." Hoseok says.

"Go ahead. I should get going anyway." Jungkook says sitting up.

"Next week's the last week of school y'know." Hoseok says.

"Yeah." Jungkook says.

"Jin and Joon are graduating." Hoseok says.

"Yeah. I didn't really get a chance to get to know them." Jungkook says.

"They still love you." Hoseok says.

Jungkook nods standing. "I'll see you later Hobi."

"Oh wait. Let me get your graduation ticket. Jin gave me yours and Taehyung's." Hoseok says running to the kitchen and coming back with a ticket.

"Thanks. Want me to take Taehyung his?" Jungkook asks.

"Why? Are you going over there?" Hoseok asks smiling suggestively.

"No." Jungkook says hitting Hoseok in the arm.

Hoseok laughs. "Just wait till I tell Jin you guys are going out."

"Nothing's official yet so I would appreciate if you didn't." Jungkook says.

"But I tell Jin everything." Hoseok pouts.

"Fine. I don't care. But don't overdo it." Jungkook says.

"Overdo it?" Hoseok asks.

"Don't be extra." Jungkook rephrases grabbing his key. "Do you want me to take the ticket?"

"No. I haven't been over to the apartment so I'm gonna go." Hoseok says.

"Alright. I have the address if you want me to text it to you." Jungkook says.

"Yeah. Sure." Hoseok says.

After quickly sending the address to Hoseok Jungkook heads out the front door.

--

Hoseok knocks on the apartment door that Jungkook directed him to.

A woman opens the door who looks to be in her mid thirties and she wears a kind smile.

"Hello." Hoseok smiles.

"Are you here for Taehyung?" She asks.

"Yes. Is he here?" Hoseok asks.

"No. But you're more than welcome to wait in his room. You're Hoseok right?" She asks.

"Yes." Hoseok nods.

"Chae Jakyung." She says holding out a hand.

"It's nice to meet you Ms. Chae." Hoseok says taking her hand and bowing politely.

"Come in. His rooms the last on the right." Jakyung says letting Hoseok in.

Hoseok nods and walks down the hall and into Taehyung's room.

The room is pretty plain and tidy besides all the papers Taehyung has spread over his bed.

Hoseok shakes his head and goes to gather the papers.

There's no way Taehyung would be able to complete all the work he's missed before the year ended and he would most likely have summer school.

As Hoseok stacks the papers a certain set catches his eye.

One of them reads Hoseok at the top and another reads Seokjin and Namjoon and one reads Jungkook.

Hoseok frowns a little taking the one with his name on it and skimming the words.

"Oh my god."

Hoseok

I remember everything so vividly. The way he held me down. The way his body pressed against mine. The way he forced himself on me like I was nothing. I remember walking home and everything step sending sharp pains through my legs. The way I had to force myself not to shut down. I remember just trying to forget him. Trying to forget what happened. I stayed in the shower for as long as I could bare. Everything was numb but I still felt him. I want to die Hoseok. I don't think I can make it through this. How can I live like this? In this constant fear that any moment someone will take advantage of me. What if he'll always be apart of me? What if I never escape?

"What are you doing?"

Hoseok looks up to find Taehyung standing in the doorway.

"I don't-. I was just." Hoseok starts.

"Why are you going through my stuff?" Taehyung asks walking up and snatching the paper from Hoseok.

"Taehyung~"

"What are you even doing here?" Taehyung asks his voice laced with hurt and anger. "Get out."

"Why didn't you tell me?" Hoseok asks feeling tears rise in the back of his eyes.

"Get the hell out of here Hoseok!" Taehyung yells turning to him.

"Taehyung." Hoseok says stepping closer to his angry friend.

"Are you stupid or something?" Taehyung asks tears already filling his eyes and his breath becoming uneven.

"Were you~"

"No." Taehyung says as he starts to feel hysterical. "Just l-leave. G-Get out."

"Taehyung." Hoseok says stepping up to Taehyung and wrapping his arms around his. "Talk to me Tae. Tell me the truth. You can trust me. I promise."

Taehyung's knees are weak and he feels light headed when he thinks back to the night.

"Leave me alone." Taehyung cries leaning against his friend.

"It's okay." Hoseok says leading him to the bed.

Taehyung's entire body trembles against Hoseok's as Hoseok rocks Taehyung slowly trying to calm him down.

"I'm-. I'm so- sorry Hoseok." Taehyung says still in hysterics.

"Don't apologise Tae. It's not your fault." Hoseok says. "But why didn't you tell me? I could've helped."

"You wouldn't have believed me." Taehyung cries.

"Of course I would have. Why would you say that?" Hoseok asks stroking Taehyung's hair.

"He told me. He told no one would believe me and I believed him." Taehyung through his uneven breaths.

"Who? Tell me who it was?" Hoseok says.

Taehyung's breathing speeds up and he starts to panic as he can't seem to catch his breath.

"I-. I- c-ca. I c-can't." Taehyung stutters. "Ican'tbreathe."

Hoseok sits him up so he can breathe better. "It's okay."

Taehyung still can't catch his breath even when he sits up.

"Here. Put your hands over you head and look down." Hoseok says.

It's not the first time Taehyung's had a panic attack but now it's for an entirely different reason.

Taehyung does as he's told and tries to take in deep breath.

Hoseok rubs his back soothingly. "I'm so sorry this happened."

Taehyung shakes his head. "It's my fault."

"How could you say that?" Hoseok asks.

"Everyone knows I have a reputation Hobi and no one would believe that I was forced into anything." Taehyung's voice trembles.

"I believe you Taehyung." Hoseok says.

Taehyung's breathing finally starts to slow down.

"We have to tell someone." Hoseok says.

"What? N-No. T-That's ridiculous." Taehyung shakes his head.

"Whoever it was Taehyung we can stop them before they do it to someone else. You do know who it was. Don't you?" Hoseok asks.

"Yes." Taehyung says. "But I don't want to tell anyone. Do you know how humiliated I feel right now?"

"I know." Hoseok says. "How long ago?"

"It happened at the club." Taehyung says his mind going back to that night.

Hoseok sighs when he recalls the evening and how Taehyung disappeared.

"I thought you left with someone." Hoseok says lowly feeling guilty. "I was upset that you didn't tell me."

Taehyung nods pulling his knees to his chest.

"You didn't answer my calls for a week and you didn't want to see me." Hoseok continues. "I was so mad."

Taehyung's heart hurts as he sees the tears fall from Hoseok's eyes.

"I wish I would have known. If I would have known." Hoseok says as tears fall more rapidly.

"Don't cry Hobi." Taehyung says holding his arms out to him.

Hoseok moves into Taehyung's embrace and hugs him back tightly.

"You don't deserve any of this Tae." Hoseok says.

Taehyung doesn't respond as he continues to comfort his guilty friend.

Taehyung knew that if he aloud him too Hoseok would let the guilt eat him alive.

Maybe knowing who it was and that Taehyung had already had multiple affairs with him would make him less guilty.

"It was Junmyeon." Taehyung says.

"Who?" Hoseok asks.

"Suho." Taehyung says. "Suho raped me."
