Taehyung feels how his eyes are heavy. He wants to open them up, but somehow that seems like too much of a challenge right now. His chest and stomach feels weird, it's as if he's nauseous but he can't throw up.

After a minute of feeling totally captured in his own shell, Taehyung's eyes finally blink open. The room is dark, only the light from the moon is shining through the curtains and making it possible for Taehyung to see anything.

He looks at the window, then the ceiling and then the man that's resting beside him. Jungkook's arm is securly wrapped around Taehyung's waist, his other arm and hand holding up his head. It seems like the ravenette have been trying to stay awake, but ended up doozing off in this position. His head is falling once in a while before his body flinches and brings it back to rest on his arm.

Jungkook has always been a heavy sleeper, his increasing age not making it any better.

Taehyung looks at him for a little as he tries to recall what happened earlier. He closes his eyes again, this time so tight that he can see the black-like spots dance over his eyelids.

His father is in his life again. He doesn't know if he wants to cry, scream or punch something. The frustration and fear seems to have taken over his chest, that's why he's experiencing everything he experienced back then. The fear, the stress and the constant feeling of someone punching your over and over in the stomach.

It sucks.

He takes a deep breath and tries to hold back the building of a second anxiety attack of the day, his body already starting to get shaken up again and the sudden urge to sob out loud feels like the only thing that would calm him down.

It seems like the male beside him has woken up by feeling Taehyung's movement and shaking.

"T-Tae," he asks and yawns a little, clearly still sleepy. Taehyung throws a hand over his mouth as he feels a heart-tearing sob emerge through his sensitive chest.

"Oh baby," Jungkook wakes up a little more when he realizes that Taehyung actually is awake. He lies down on top of Taehyung and hides his head in the elder's neck. Back when they were younger, pressure was the best way to get Taehyung to calm down when it all became too much. Somehow, having some weight on top of him stopped him from freaking out, just as it's doing right now.

"It's okay," Jungkook whispers and kisses the other's tear-stained cheek, "it's okay. You're safe, Jimin is safe. No one will hurt you anymore baby."

Taehyung takes some hitching breaths as he tries to stop crying, feeling Jungkook's words immedietly calm down his system. Oh, how grateful he is for the younger. For having him here, for not losing him back then. He could never live without Jungkook.

"I'm s-scared," the trembling lips stutters out, saying the words that is filling up every inch of Taehyung's body. No one would ever understand how much it's hurting him.

"I-I thought I was free," he adds. Jungkook lifts himself a little and kisses Taehyung's forehead, his own eyes stinging with tears.

"I'm sorry," is the only thing the raven can utter before he again lets his lips rest on Taehyung's forehead. He knew this would happen. If he could just have come up with a better lie, this wouldn't have been a problem. Still, he would probably blame himself for the rest of his life for keeping such a secret.

Taehyung grabs around Jungkook, tugging his shirt tightly as he cries into his chest.

Taehyung has been sleeping for about five hours. Jungkook stayed with him the entire time, Jimin chose to go to bed a little early. He seemed to have a lot in his mind.

After some minutes, Taehyung finally seems to calm down. Jungkook can only hear the deep breaths and small sniffs that occasionally leaves the other.

"It will all be okay," Jungkook whispers as he holds his weight on his elbows so he can care for Taehyung's cheeks while looking into his eyes. He leans down and gently kisses Taehyung's lips which the elder immedietly accepts. It's the perfect way to distract him.

They kiss for some time, just slowly and peacefully. Taehyung sighs into it as he feels himself calm down.

He's okay. He has Jungkook. Just like back then, he has his safety. Jimin is safely in the other room, it's all okay.

Jungkook pulls back and lies down on his side, pulling Taehyung against him.

"Try to get some sleep. I called the school so you can take the day off tomorrow," Jungkook explains.

"Thank you," Taehyung whispers as he hides his face in Jungkook's muscular chest. The familiar and homely scent makes him calm down so much that he feels tired enough to drift off into sleep. The entire time Jungkook was gently running his hand on Taehyung's back, making sure he was fully sleep before closing his own eyes.

Jimin looks up from the table as his fathers enters the kitchen. He immedietly looks at Taehyung, searching for something to indicate that the elder is okay.

He looks deadly tired, his eyes heavy and hair a total mess. He half-heartly smiles at Jimin and accepts the hug that Jimin jumps up to give him.

"Are you okay?" he asks, holding his father tightly. Taehyung chuckles fondly and he gently pats Jimin's head.

"I have been better, but you don't have to be scared Jiminie," the father explains. It was terrible for him to get out of bed this morning. To be honest, he just wanted to stay there and hide under the blanket for months, but now he's glad he chose to come down to Jimin.

He kisses his son's hair and they stand like that for a while, just holding each other close.

When they pull apart, Jungkook gestures for them to sit down by the table. He probably figured out that Jimin was eager for some sort of explanation.

"Did... did my grandfather really make Yoongi talk with me?" Jimin starts timidly. As if it wasn't bad enough to begin with.

"I got some more information from the station, and I also called Christin after that," Jungkook begins, "it seems like Yoongi only talked to you in order to get the money and drugging you so your relationship would move faster. However, it also appears that Yoongi got it delayed so much because he actually didn't want to use you like that. I don't think he's a bad person... was a bad person, that is..."

Jimin looks down at the table and plays a little with his fingers. He hates Yoongi for what he did, but he has come to learn that Yoongi didn't have a choice. He might have played his cards badly, but in the end he was just a child getting lost in the environment of criminals.

"I can't believe my own grandfather would do something like that," Jimin says. Taehyung gulps slightly at that as he reaches over to grab his son's hand.

"That man is not worthy to be called your grandfather. He's greedy and will do anything in order to get money, even if it means hurting his family," the brunette sighs, "I guess he found out I was suddenly rich, meaning he could use some old strings to get back at me for getting him in jail. Definetly the place where a monster like him belongs."

Jimin nods and bites his lip. He has heard about his 'grandfather' before, but never with this much detail. It's crazy how much hate he can feel towards a person he doesn't have a single memory of.

"But he has been paid now and I know the police won't let him contact someone who can hurt us, I have too much information about them. We won't be bothered," Jungkook explains and the others nod tiredly. Now it's over for good. They are glad they didn't reach the bottom of the count down.

"W-Will it be possible to talk with him?" Jimin asks. He doesn't know why, he just have an urge to look at the man that has fucked up his life for months, also ask why Yoongi had to be dragged into it. There are so many questions running around in his head.

"Never in a million years will I let you see that man. Don't give him the pleasure of seeing you Jimin, he will - first of all - not give a shit about you and he will only think that he got pass a bump on the road to more money. He doesn't care about anything aside from himself Jimin," Taehyung says sternly. He's not letting his son get hurt from his father being a dick. That man has no filter.

"Okay," Jimin says and nods understandingly. He gets dragged into a hug as he bites his lip. It's over now? Thank god.

Jungkook joins behind them and hugs them too. It's been one hell of a ride, but it might actually be over now.

"Jin texted that he would make some food for us, we should visit them," Taehyung says. The others quickly agrees, no one really have the energy to make food later and getting out of the house for a little might be good for them.

Jimin texts Hoseok and asks him to come over tomorrow after school. Now he can focus more on that relationship, try to force his mind away from Yoongi and Kim Joon Tae.
