Taeyong pov

I'm sitting on the couch; my hands are shaking.
I don't know what to say. I don't know how to say it.

It'll be the first time I talk about being bullied. A lot of people secretly know it, but I never truly admitted it. I never asked help too, too scared of consequences.

While I explain all to him, I can feel him softly drawing circles with the thumb of his left hand on my back.

I feel my anxiety slowly disappearing.
I explain all to him.
When, how and why.

I know he can't help me, but I feel relieved to finally say it to someone.

When I finish, I let hot tears rolling on my cheeks.

Johnny, who didn't say a word since I started to explain,
takes me in his arms.

My eyes widen at the forgotten feeling.

And I do something I'll never think I was possible to, I hug Johnny back.
I put my head on his right shoulder and wrap my arms around his waist, exactly like he does on me.

I missed this feeling so much.

It been a while since someone hugged me.

«I want to help you Taeyong.»
He says sincerely.

I look at his eyes. At this moment, I don't see pity or disgust in his eyes.

What I see is pure compassion.

«You don't know it yet since I'm new in school, but my parents and I have a lot of impact.
I can protect you Taeyong.»

«Why would you protect me Johnny?»

«Because I want to.
Because I see that you deserve better than this.»

And without thinking I just rush to hug him again, clinging harder to him.

«How are you going to protect me?»
I ask softly, still in his arms.

«I'm going to think about it tonight, I'll tell you tomorrow.»

After he finishes his sentence, I look at his eyes trying to find what emotion he feels. I see don't see bad intentions in him.

«Do you want to cuddle while watching a movie?»
Johnny asks me, releasing his embrace.

«I'd love to.»

And for the first time, I wasn't scared.

Johnny's not going to hurt me.

Johnny will help me.

Maybe Johnny is what I needed in my life.

I take his hand, leading him to my room.

Maybe Johnny will be the one to save me?
