Yoongi's POV

"I wish I could just go home and sleep." Feeling the urge to turn into a rock, Yoongi mumbled to himself as he lazily strides into the detention room, noticing how his classmates were already in their seats.

Nervously, Yoongi's eyes scan over the room, trying to spot an unoccupied seat and thankfully, he found one next to the window but as he was about to make way over, a familiar confident voice called out his name.

"Yoongi sshi!

Startled since no one has ever called out his name like he never existed in the first place, Yoongi anxiously turns to where the voice came from and loudly gulped once he sees a familiar dyed pink-haired male.

"Come here!" Jin called out again and made obvious hand gestures so the paler male could receive his message quicker.

"Okay." Yoongi soon awkwardly mumbled, noticing how many of his classmates were gazing at him in shock. Who would have thought a popular student like Kim Seokjin would call out for a nerd?

Finally, the black-haired senior shyly seated himself down beside the pink head and drops his school bag to the floor before sitting up straight and started working on filling up the detention form in peace.

"Psh!"

Ignored.

"Hey..."

"What?" Yoongi snapped, finally turning to his right and forces his attention to the broad shoulders guy who seemed like he has something to say.

"What are you waiting for?" Jin questioned in oblivion, sounding as if he wanted the younger senior to ask him something.

"Wait for what?" Yoongi pushed his eyebrows together without a single clue.

"Ask me why I'm sad!" Jin revealed his needs as he taps the infamous pink pen against the wooden desk in frustration, making Yoongi glanced at it before looking up at him with bored eyes.

"Um okay, so why you sad?" Yoongi asked in an unbothered tone. Why would he want to know Jin's problems anyways?

But to be totally honest, Yoongi could not lie that he was heedless to what the taller male might say but what took him by surprise was how the elder is so affable to start a conversation with someone classed as low as him.

"Okay so you know Taemin? Lee Taemin." Jin leaned in closer as he speaks audibly enough for Yoongi to hear and almost instantly, the black-haired senior replays J-hope's little confrontation yesterday with the bullies inside his cinematic head.

So Yoongi nodded a yes and Jin takes that as an allowance for him to continue. "Do you perhaps don't like him?"

Without a second thought, Yoongi nodded his head again because of how his brain could only bitterly think of the news he heard at yesterday's lunch where his appetite has left the chat.

How Jimin still managed to pop up with a new boyfriend the next day after he had killed the last one in less than 24 hours.

"Oh thank goodness!" Jin exclaimed dramatically as he falls back in his seat, making Yoongi jumped a bit at how loud the male's voice was and look at his seatmate with surprised eyes like the rest of the class.

"I completely detest him!" Jin huffed in agreement as he crosses his arms together and starts spilling gossips. "You know how could Jimin even date that piece of scum?!"

Without even realising, Yoongi aggressively nods his head along to Jin's righteous words as he would also like to question the freshman that too...

"Like you should've seen how that scum flirts, he fucking sucks and guess what? When he hangouts with Jimin at break and lunch, he literally begged to go to Chim's place like is your dick that hard?"

Jin ranted with a sour expression as Yoongi listens with so much concentration while feeling himself getting annoyed and frustrated by each second of the pink-haired senior gossiping about Taemin's trashy love for his Jiminie who deserved better.

"Gahh!! I just want to shove that motherfucker's dick in his horny ass mouth." Jin groaned in agony.

"Me too." Yoongi silently thought, feeling itchy and worked up to do something that will not only shock himself but other students who are still paranoid about the unexpected news, some even moved school or town.

But only if they know that their well being will be perfectly fine if they didn't mess with a certain freshman Yoongi set his eyes on first.

"So many people in this school are calling Jimin a slut and that's just mess up because I know that Chim is definitely not one." Jin sighed frustratedly and Yoongi could see how much the elder really cares for his friend.

"Then why does he keep finding a new boyfriend?" Yoongi accidentally blurted out with curiosity as no matter how many people he pushes off the rooftop, there's no point because the pretty male would only keep showing up with new faces and one by one they go...bodies splattered to the ground and faces shoved into concretes.

"Well, I don't really know so that's why I'm boiling to find out!" Jin exploded again with the passion of wanting to know the truth behind 'Jimin dating different peeps for who knows what reason'.

After hearing what the popular senior said, the paler student anxiously grabs a pen from his black pencil case and rattles with it, hoping to calm his nerves down as he watches the broader male continuing as if he had just remembered something recent to spill.

"Oh! And last night, we were playing Twisters right and guess what?"

"W-what?"

"Taemin, that scum was touching Jimin like no one's business! Groping his ass and smirking like an outright perv!" Jin feistily sniggered as he abruptly crosses his arms together.

The older senior was hating Taemin's past action towards his best friend who doesn't even seem to mind if someone was directly assaulting him.

Furthermore, Jimin looks like he even enjoys it and Jin doesn't know why this angers him too much. Was it because of how delicate his boyfriend treats him in such a gentleman like way? Not just some dude trying to get into your pants on the very first day?

"Jimin even- Oh my! Are you okay?!"

About to continue yapping away, Jin's eyes widened astonishingly as he loudly gasped at two ends of the broken pencil that was once in one piece and perfectly fine in Yoongi's left hand.

"Y-yeah I'm good." Yoongi mumbled slowly as a reply, restraining his displeasure in what the pink-haired senior just told him as he let his dark eyes travel down to the broken wooden pencil.

For the rest of their detention, Yoongi can only allow his mind to wander off to Jin's words while the older senior decided to talk about other subject and for example, the cause of why they are in detention right now.

'Taemin, that scum was touching Jimin like no one's business! Groping his ass and smirking like an outright perv!'. Yoongi's mind replays.

"Just you wait, I will show you what happens when you dare to mess with my Jiminie."

*After Detention*

"Sorry again guys!" Jin smiled sorrily at his tired classmates and leave the room along with everyone else.

Lifting his tired head up from the desk, Yoongi sleepily massages his shoulders before he finally decided to get his bum off the chair when there was no one else around.

Feeling like he could drift off near-death for twenty-one hours straight, the tired student made his way out of the detention room and walk past the lockers that are located inside an empty hallway where it was dead silence except for Yoongi's dragging legs which trail slowly behind.

However as the senior was ready to yawn, soft cries filled the tranquillity inside Yoongi's head and he immediately couldn't recognise the voice as if he never heard someone cry in such pain before.

Unable to ignore the endless weeping, the black-haired male investigates the area by seeking each corner and pillars until he found the owner of those sympathetic cries.

"Hope?" Yoongi frowned hard, staring down at the orange-haired friend who was slouched up against the plain white walls near the school's medical.

There were visible bruises on his left cheeks and his rainbow shirt that had the sentence 'Unicorn is my life!' written on the front in the bold letter was out of place and dirtied in what seemed like hot powder.

"H-hyung? Yoongi hyung!" J-hope squeaks his bloodshot eyes open and instantly choke out his friend's name before trying to break out into a forced smile.

'No matter what happens, you need to smile.'

Those were the words his mommy told him.

"Y-yah, are you crying?" The senior asked in shock as he carefully crouches down to J-hope's level and lifts a hand up to give his shoulder a light squeeze. Yoongi never saw Hoseok cries...no one ever did.

"N-no of course not, it's just onions! I had o-onions." The younger smiled as bright as he could but the pouring tears just won't stop flowing out, betraying the fakeness which forms on his curvy lips.

"Idiot, you are crying! Why do you act as if you are always fine?! Tell me...tell me who hurt you." Yoongi raises his voice in disbelief, it's about time Hoseok open up to him, stop bundling all of it to himself and quit acting like everything is fine when it's clearly isn't.

"I'm fine."

"No you're not! Tell me. Is it Taemin?" Yoongi rashly assumed with gritting teeth as he watches how his friend's eyes were pouring with tears behind that 'strong' smile.

"I- yes! Yoongi hyung! Why does he hate me so much! Why can't he just leave me alone? I don't like being called 'Horsie'! I don't like how he laughs at me! O-or hits me..."

After all those shitty years, the orange-haired student who was despised by almost everyone broke down entirely in front of his first-ever friend, Min Yoongi.

"W-why...why! What's wrong with me?!"

Hoseok's voice continued to crack while he kept screaming nonstop as if he was being stabbed continuously and that only makes Yoongi feel stunned for his friend as he stared with wide eyes at the male who was trying to discard his pain by yelling nonstop.

All the senior could think of at that surprising moment was how Hoseok took the bully's words to heart and as the duty of being what a good friend is, Yoongi failed to realise that his friend had been suffering from something he never considered to hurt the latter emotionally.

Yoongi never thought he would get to see the male cried so desperately even once in his life but now, it all happened because of one scum who has caused too much damage.

"Nothing. There is nothing wrong with you, it's just that we live in this judgemental society." Yoongi simply answered as he gently pats his friend's shoulder that still trembles even after his comforting touch.

"Why didn't you tell me this Hope ah?"

"I was scared!" Hoseok shakily confessed, feeling conscious enough to wipe away his wet stained tears and aggressively rub his red swollen eyes.

"Of?"

"Of that you're gonna think of me as weak...I don't want to lose you hyung, you were my only friend then but now, I got Kook and Joon s-so I'm scared that I will lose them too."

Words spoke with fear and heart-pumping miles per second, Hoseok glance at his friend with hesitation as if once the words he has been keeping for years broke out, Yoongi would leave him.

"You know I will never leave you or think of you as weak because...you're one of the strongest people I've met." Yoongi pulled his crying dongsaeng into a safe hug and the younger was in a state of shock because he doesn't recall Yoongi showing this much affection to him before.

And for once in his life, Hoseok felt like everything was going to be fine.

"Thank you for being my friend hyung."

"Mhm."
