Yoongi sat on his usual desk, Taehyung wasn't in his usual chair. He was in the front of the classroom standing with the principal of the school. Mr. Lee looked very upset.

"Taehyung's mother has been suspicious about how her son has been coming home later than usual and the mysterious cuts and bruises, along with his uniform and textbooks soaking wet. We believe he's being bullied."

Yoongi glanced at Jimin, the short boy visibly tensing.

"If you ever see Taehyung getting bull-"

"Mr. Choi, it was Yoongi!" Jimin stood up in his chair with tears in his eyes. "He's been so mean to Taehyung ever since he got here!"

The pale boy froze and glared at the shorter. He stood up and faced Mr. Lee who had been glaring at him. "Yeah, well it wasn't just me! Don't act like you've been bad mouthing him and bullying him too!" His words seemed to have switch on a faucet because now Jimin's face was wet and covered in tears. He wasn't going to deny that he hadn't been harassing Taehyung because everyone already knew.

"Y-Yoongi hyung- how could you- say such a thing? I've been his f-friend since he got here!"

"Yah, Yoongi, why'd you so that?" Jackson had a smug smirk plastered on his face.

"What?! Don't all be acting like goody two shoes! You and Eric haven't done anything about it, in fact, you've been bullying him too," At this point, Yoongi was fuming and the class had gone silent.

Jeongin stood up from his seat and walked over to Yoongi. "Jungkook don't act like you're so innocent! You've been watching him get beat up everyday because you're too scared and just ignored him when he needed you the most!" The boy with braces exclaimed. No way was he on Yoongi's side, but he was right. He wasn't the only one in the wrong.

By next week, Taehyung had left the school and now Yoongi was the one being thrown into ponds, being called a names, getting kicked and punched and tripped in the hallways. Jeongin stayed away from all of it. He made new friends. The other boys were too toxic to him.

"We don't want to talk to you anymore. We don't hang out with bullies." Eric snickered.

Yoongi was banned from Eric's house.

He didn't bother to try to talk to the boys again.

For some reason, he was immensely pissed at Jimin and Jungkook. The so called power couple that tortured the deaf boy. Gained his trust and they both ripped his heart to shreds. And Yoongi just watched.

Even if Jungkook wasn't as evil as Jimin, he still knowingly ignored Taehyung. Yoongi didn't know for what reason.

After months of being harassed and coming home with cuts and bruises that were 'accidents', he realized that he deserved this. He deserved every single minute of pain physically and emotionally because nothing would match the pain and heartbreak that Kim Taehyung had to go through, all because Min Yoongi was terrified of the boy's smile that was brighter than the sun and his eyes that would sparkle every time he made Jungkook happy and how he would apologize every time he himself would go through the pain of loving someone who doesn't love them back.

Yoongi learned that he was terrified that what happened to Taehyung could've happened him.

He was terrified for him.

Taehyung was happy. It made him vulnerable to Jimin. Because in this world. It's eat or be eaten.

Yoongi was terrified of Park Jimin.
