•Jinyoung•

*flashback*

"YOU CALL THIS DIRT FOOD? HA? BICH! YOU ARE USELESS! THE ONLY GOOD FUCKING THING YOU CAN DO IS BE A PIG!", Jinyoung's father yelled as he pushed the table that had his food there.

Jinyoung and his mother usually just watched while father was eating.

His mother got to drunken man's feet. "i am sorry... it's all m-my fault", she whispered shakily.

His father just started hitting her. Again and again, until he felt better.

Of course, Jinyoung was no exception. "What!? Why are you looking at me like that?!", older man yelled.

He came closer to the scared little boy and pushed his neck down so that the younger's face was pushed on the floor. "How. Do. You. Dare. Stare. At. Me?!", his father was merciless monster.

His mother tried as hard as she could to get the older's grip away from younger boy. And she succeeded. "Jinyoungie run to the closet. run.", she whispered at him. "please."

He ran to the closet and looked the doors. He started crying. He felt weak, unhelpful, he couldn't do anything to save his mother.

Anything.

*End of the flashback*

That's why taking care of small broken Im Jaebum was so special to Jinyoung. When he found him and hugged him to make him feel better he felt something.

Only one thought was in his mind that day I saved him. It was a feeling that he would never be able to forget. After he saved him he was always glued to me.

He was timid. He was always asking for them to stay together. Forever. Jinyoung didn't know why was he always following him aroun.

So he asked.

*flashback*

"Hey, why are you always following me around? It's not like you'll get anything from hanging out with me.", Jinyoung asked. They were sitting on some staircase.

Jaebum was hugging his knees. "I don't ask... For anything."

"That is not what I meant. It's just a figure of speech. I mean, you won't get anything good from staying with me.", Jinyoung explained.

"I don't understand... I just want us to be together because I like you.", Jaebum answered with a soft smile on his face.

"I... Uh... Ha?", Jinyoung didn't know what to think.

"Park Jinyoung is special to me. He is the first person to care for me. To worry about me. To get angry for me. To smile at me. The first person to do that is you, Jinyoung. That's why you're special. That's why I always want to be with you. Can I?", Jaebum said that like it was the most normal thing in the world.

But, Jinyoung was a blushing mess. He couldn't reject him easily.

*few monts later, still a flashback*

"Why aren't you coming, Jaebum. Where are you?", Jinyoung was waiting at their usual place.

Usually, Jinyoung acted like he didn't care where the other boy was. He would just show up and the latter would be there, but secretly he cared a lot. He loved the other's presence.

So today when he showed up and Jaebum wasn't there, milions of questions and scenarios were running around his head.

"Maybe he's lost."

"Maybe he is getting beaten up again."

"Maybe he has been kidnapped!"

Jinyoung started running towards the other boy's house. He needs to know if he is fine.

Of course, he didn't take easier way, wich is to knock on the door. No, he got to the roof of the small building and suddenly door opened and Jinyoung hid behind the short wall that was there.

"Why are you like this today?! Why are you acting so selfish!?", Jinyoung could hear a woman's voice. He peeked over the wall and he saw a woman dragging a boy by his hair. The boy was Jaebum.

"You think somebody likes you?! That you have a friend?! That Park guy is not your friend!! You hear me!? No one loves you JB! You will be alone forever! Just like mommy!"

Suddenly his mother grabbed an empty bottle that was near her. Jinyoung knew what she will do, and Jaebum was just standing there, frozen.

Jinyoung started running towards them, he pushed Jaebum away so that he was behind him. He protected the boy.

Jinyoung felt a sharp pain in his head and everything went black.

When he woke up he recognized where he was. The same storage room where he found Jaebum.

He scanned the room and saw crying Jaebum in the corner. His eyes were red and puffy, he was obviously crying a long time.

"What are you doing here?", Jinyoung asked him.

"Because, you didn't wake up and... And... I-I don't know where to go... So.. The on-only thing I could do was w-watch you... Y-You are hurt because of m-me", Jaebum whispered in between sobs.

Jinyoung came closer to him, gently putting his hands on other's shoulders. "You are crying because of that? I am completely fine. It's fine. I want to tell you somet-"

"No way", Jaebum cut him off.

"What?"

"I nearly lost Park Jinyoung. There's no way that it is fine. I had nothing. It's not fine."

Jinyoung was taken aback by this statement. He put his hand to latter's cheek. "Hey, wait, what are you saying? That wasn't your fault it was just an accident."

Jaebum remained silent, but then he reached with his hand for Jinyoung's head. "Your head must hurt. So, you should go home and rest for today."

That was the last time that he saw Jaebum.
