When Hoseok said that he would keep the his end of the deal, you didn't believe he really would.

But he said, he wanted to test his racing once.

So that's what leads you to where you were standing right now.

Racing arena.

You were in one of the seats, Hoseok in the race track with his car ready to rock and dirt the tracks.

His car makes loud vrooming sounds, giving you goosebumps at the sound.

Hell it feels more nervous for me.

Suddenly, the car stops.

The door opens and Hoseok comes out. He looks at you and gestures you to come down on the track.

You look around and point at yourself.

"No! I was asking my Grandma to come! Dumbass!", Hoseok yells.

You smile sheepishly and go to him.

Upon reaching, Hoseok offers you to sit beside him.

You vigorously shake your head.

"Oh just get your ass in, Potato.", he grumbles and goes over to the driver side.

"Oh lord! Would you able to drive properly?", you mock him.

He glares at you.

"Well, either way, you die with me.", he smirks.

You scoff.

You could sense Hoseok was tensed.

You look at him and hold his shoulder.

He looks at you.

You smile.

"Hey, Bitch. Why are so tensed about?", you ask.

He narrows his eyes at you.

"Can't really tell if you are being nice or not. But would answer it anyway. I am tensed about, well, what if I don't push the brake on time?", he sighs.

You freeze.

You start coughing.

Ah shit... Panic attack.

The cough suddenly got violent.

Hoseok tensed up even more.

"Um...Potato? You coughs are a but violent. Hey...", Hoseok stammers.

You place your hands on the either side of you, one on the window and one desperately trying to find the other support.

Hoseok grabs your hand and holds it tight.

You cover your mouth, try to stop the attack but it won't.

Now, black dots started blocking your vision.

Your coughs stopped but your breathing got ragged and your vision was clearly not helping either.

Why suddenly?

You suddenly got an attack.

Oh, literally forgot the horse next to you was freaking out more.

Not knowing what to do when you said, "Hoseok....I-I.... Do... Don't...feel..good..", words barely out of your mouth as you clutched his hand tightly.

He curses and brings you into his embrace.

He buries your face in his chest and hugs you.

"Hey, calm down, baby girl. I am right here. Why are you having an attack out of no where?", he coos the words.

Tears were forming in your eyes from the pain in your heart.

"Ssh... Oh m—are you crying?", he caresses your head.

Your pain didn't subside, but your vision was getting better.

From the way he was hugging you, you could smell his cologne.

Beach.

It reminded you of beach.

And beach reminded you of the moment when you went to the beach after two years of Jungkook's birth.

It was still crystal clear.

The small you was running here and there, as your parents sat nearby, with your baby brother and Jimin.

You were so happy, until you saw a cute boy sitting near the sea. Curiosity took you to him.

He was crying. You pouted.

"Ji-Ji! Where ar—oh. Here you are! Who is this?", Jimin stands next to you.
You shrug.

"He is crying...well let's leav—"

"I wanna say hi to him."

Jimin smiles and let's you do so.

You lightly tap his shoulder and the kid looks up.

"Hi! Please smile! Be bright like a sun! Look how Sun Dude smiles a lot! Be a sun and go woo-hoo!", with that you ran away with Jimin running behind you.

You were blushing. The kid was actually cute.

You ran into your dad's arms you welcomed Jimin in the hug and well. Jungkook laughed. He took his baby steps towards you three and you caught him before he fell.

You laughed.

Jimin laughed.

Jungkook laughed.

You three siblings got a lot of love.

And eventually, the accident took place.

Your parents died.

You survived.

Jimin broke.

Jungkook spent his childhood without parents.

So when you were included in the accident second time, you were scared that you won't survive.

But you did.

So when, thinking of badly a car crash could again kill you, you got an attack.

The memories of your parents started flowing your head and you broke.

Your attack was gone. Hoseok finally sighed when you again started crying.
You were choking on your tears as you tried to hold them, you thought Hoseok would kick your assets in six di—

"Let it out. Don't hold it.", and with those sweet words you broke.

"I don't know what I am doing. Trying to get justice for my brother and that's what fate throws at me. My own brother didn't trust me enough to tell me his problems!", you say.

"And now? I am being a crybaby instead of doing something! I am so pathetic...", you whimper.

"You are not pathetic, Ji-ae."

You heart flutters.

That was the first time he said your name and he said with so much sincerity.

You stopped your crying and looked up at him.

And man, Unbeknownst to you both, you two were close enough to steal each other's lips for a kiss.

But the current situation didn't let that thought cross your minds.

With cute sniffles and teary eyes, you met Hoseok's eyes, which were showing determination and for the first time, genuine care.

Silence. A comfortable one.

"What's troubling you?", he whispers softly.

He cups your cheeks in his hands, still the idea crossing none of your minds.

"I am lost. I don't know what to do next. It's killing me inside that I don't know what to do and eventually came out in the form of an attack. I just feel like giving up.", you lips tremble.

Hoseok smiles softly.

"No. No, never."

"What?", you look in his eyes.

"You are not giving up. You need help? You need a helping hand? I am here. I will be by your side till you solve this. And believe me, Jeon Ji-ae, your brother will be smiling happily once again."

Another silence.

Hoseok grinned at your expression.

You heart did a flip.

Was Hoseok really going to be by your side?

You didn't know, but you smile.

And almost laughed.

Hoseok chuckled.

"You are cheesy.", you comment.

"At least you are OkAY Now. So, ready? Let's get it!", Hoseok smirks.

"I am scared....", you mumble.

Neither of you realised that you both were still holding hands.

"Don't worry, I'll keep you safe. Remember,", Hoseok pecks your forehead before continuing.

"You got me,", he looks at you and smiles, "I got you."

"So shine, dream and smile."

You grin from the core of your heart.

"You ready, potato?", he asks.

You sigh and look in front with a defeated look but your heart was excited.

You smile.

"Vroom Vroom Vroom, Horse."

And the engine roars.

With that, you and Hoseok laugh and enjoy the new found friendship.

You were now sure that, Hoseok was willingly help you.

—

Finally a new bond.

Now, the story is on track.

Next chapter is about the plan.

I messed up the chapter numbers.

Hope you loved the way Hobi acted here.
