I heard voices around me.

I couldn't move my arms, my legs, and my body. I couldn't talk. I couldn't open my eyes.

I felt cold. Very cold.

"No! I didn't get injured!" A voice said. A male's voice.

"Are you sure?! He threw the knife at you, Yoongi!"

"I'm pretty sure I'd know if I was leaking blood." Yoongi said. "I'm just glad that he is okay. I thought I lost him when he fell on the ground."

"He was probably tired. Maybe that's why he fainted." A different voice said.

"Well he fainted at the right time because if he didn't then he would have done something with that knife." Yoongi whispered. His voice was deep. And raspy.

A hand was set on my forehead and I flinched. As soon as I did, the hand moved. "He moved!"

"What?! He moved?!"

"Yeah! He flinched when I touched his forehead!"

"Hoseok? Hoseok, can you hear me?"

I made some sort of noise. "He's awake! Hoseok, tell me you know who you are and what happened."

"Where am I?" I managed to ask. I cracked open one eye.

"You're in Jimin's room. You fainted about an hour ago and I called Jungkook because I didn't know what to do. You were with Yoongi in the kitchen and-"

"I know what happened." I cut him off. Jimin stopped and nodded. I looked over at Yoongi. He was frowning at me. "Are you okay?"

"I should be asking you that."

"I'm fine." I said.

"Yeah and I'm Woozi." I rolled my eyes at what he said. "You need to eat something. I got you some soup."

"I don't like soup." I said.

"Neither do I but you need something in your system." He said. "Here," He gave me a warm bowl that probably had the soup in. "Dig in."

"Gladly." I rolled my eyes as I took a sip.

**

"I wasn't thinking straight, okay?" I said.

"I know and I don't blame you." Yoongi said. "So stop apologizing to me, you didn't kill me."

"But I almost did!" I frowned.

"Almost. I'm still alive, okay?" I nodded.

"Can I ask you something?" I said, looking at him.

"Sure."

"Why were you avoiding me?" He visibly tensed. I noticed it. He stayed quiet. "Please tell me why."

"I can't." He mumbled.

"What you said hurt me, you know. I didn't wanna admit it but it really did."

"I'm really sorry, princess. I'm sorry for what I said."

"I want to know why you did that."

"Princess,"

"Yoongi."

"Okay." He looked down. "It's a long story, why don't I just tell you some other-"

"Talk, please."

"Alright. Why don't we go somewhere private, yeah?" I nodded. We went to his room. Well the room he was staying in. He closed the door and we sat on his bed.

"I was avoiding you because my dad said if I stayed close to you, he would hurt you." He started. "Just like the way he hurt your brother, Jinhwan."

My jaw dropped. H-his dad killed my brother..?

"Before you freak, please let me explain the whole story." He said. I just nodded.

"As you may know, my dad takes drugs. It's his whole life. He can't go a day without drugs and I know it's horrible. It all started when my mom passed away, you know that too. I'm pretty sure you knew about how your brother is a drug dealer."

"No way, Jinhwan was innocent! He can't be a drug dealer!"

"Princess, your brother passed away two years ago, right?" I nodded. "Jung Jinhwan. He was a drug dealer. I know you don't want to believe it but I can't change what you think. He knew my dad and that's how my dad got his drugs."

"I can't believe this, Yoongi." I whispered, tears rolling down my cheeks. I never would have thought Jinhwan would turn out to be a drug dealer.

"I know, princess. There was this one time where he didn't get my dad the drugs on time and my dad refused to pay. Your brother got mad but he still got him his drugs. It was just late. Knowing my dad, if it's late then he gets it for free. And Jinhwan went through hard shit to get my dad the stuff he wanted. And knowing that my dad wouldn't pay, he decided to go all physical on him. And that was his mistake. Never try starting a fight with my dad because you won't survive. I do admit, my dad is crazy. When your brother started the fight, my dad used his gun. He killed him right then and there because he just started a fight. Personally, I know it's not fair and I know that my dad had to go to jail. I found out about all that because I was there when it happened but I wasn't fast enough to save him, princess. I'm truly sorry for that." He looked down.

"Y-your dad-"

"I know. He killed your brother. I knew who you were when you bumped into me that day but I decided to play dumb. I knew about your brother. I became your friend and it pained me to know you were hurting inside because you missed Jinhwan. It shocked me when I realized Jimin actually befriended you because he knows too. Namjoon knows too."

Namjoon. So he was talking about Yoongi, huh?

"Don't cry, please." Yoongi whispered, wiping away my tears.

"It's too much to take in." I looked down. He held my chin up.

"I know it is." He said. "I'm so sorry."

"Why are you sorry? You didn't do anything."

"I wish I was fast enough though. If I was then Jinhwan would still be alive." He frowned.

"It's not your fault, Yoongi."

"I also have some bad news."

"What could be worse than what you just told me?"

"Trust me, it's not just bad but it's sad too."

"What is it?"

"I have to stay away from you."
