A/N POV

It's been a week since Taehyung hasn't been at school, and Jungkook worries more. He couldn't focus on anything but Taehyung, texting him every minute of the day just to get no response in return.

Jungkook hasn't felt so upset and concerned in his life. He doesn't know where Taehyung lives or the neighborhood he might live in.

Hoseok and Jin have been worried about Taehyung as well, going to Jungkook to ask what happened to him. Hoseok hasn't always been fond of Jungkook. He doesn't like the fact that Taehyung spends an enormous amount of time with Jungkook and doesn't spend time with him and Jin anymore. The only time Taehyung would spend time with them is when he comes to the flower shop for his shift. But he is still always on his phone texting with Jungkook.

Hoseok put all his worries aside and just wants to focus on finding Tae to making sure that he safe.

A couple of days later

Jungkook got a random call from the hospital. The person on the phone didn't tell him who wanted him to be there but he got a feeling that he should go. He called Hoseok and Jin to let him know he got a call from the hospital, and he thinks Taehyung is in the hospital.

Jungkook got to the hospital and went straight to the front desk. He wasn't alone before he left Jimin offered to give him a ride to the hospital because he heard Jungkook's conversation with the hospital and decided to go with him.

Jimin knows that Jungkook cares for Taehyung, hearing him talk about him all the time to him. He's never seen Jungkook so happy with someone before and it makes Jimin very happy to see his brother happy.

Jungkook and Jimin were welcomed into the hospital room and the sadness displayed over Jungkook's face couldn't mistake anyone. He walked over to the bed and looked at his friend's terrible condition.

Taehyung didn't look good at all. He had bruises on his face, cuts on his arms, stitches on the side of his head. Jungkook couldn't stop the anger that built up inside of him. He left Taehyung's side and angrily walked out of the hospital room, ignoring Jimin's shouts. Jungkook exited the hospital and pulled out his phone to call Jin. While he waited for Jin to pick up the call he was pacing back and forth in front of the hospital like a crazy person. After 3 beeps, Jin picked up the phone call.

"Hel-"

"You, Hoseok, and my friends need to get here quickly before I do something stupid. Taehyung is in bad condition and is sleeping now. We are all going to stay at this damn hospital till he wakes up," Jungkook spat out before hanging up, not hearing Jin respond. He calmed down a little before walking back to Taehyung's hospital room.

Jungkook walked back into the room and saw Taehyung and Jimin talking. He cleared his throat at them to get their attention. He looked at Taehyung only, not paying any attention to Jimin. He saw how Taehyung looked surprised and happy to see him there. Taehyung pulled his hand up, inviting Jungkook to takes his. Jungkook took his hand with one and the other touching Tahyung's hair softly.

"Who did this to you?" Jungkook spoke, already have an idea who did but wanted to make sure he was right about the person. Taehyung looked at Jungkook with teary eyes, putting his head down letting the tears fall out of his eyes.

"My father," he whispered, Jimin gasped and looked at Jungkook, seeing him with an unfazed expression.

"I fucking knew it. Taehyung, I'm only going to ask you once. Where do you live?" Jungkook heatedly said. Taehyung looked up with a shock before shaking his head denying. "Taehyung, I'm not asking you again and you're going to tell me where you live. I'm not letting him kept doing this to you," Jungkook said, trying to soften his voice seeing Taehyung shake badly while crying.

"308 Stigma street," Taehyung said lowly.

"Jungkook, what's wrong with you?" Jimin said, still shocked about hearing about what taehyung's father has been doing to him.

"Nothing," Jungkook whispered, looking at a crying Taehyung.

"Something is going on, so tell me," Jimin yelled.

"Can you go home and try to fix up my room? Taehyung is going to stay with us for a while," Jungkook said, still focused on Taehyung.

"Whatever," Jimin said before leaving the room. Seconds after Jimin leaving the room, Jungkook's friends, Hoseok, and Jin came into the room.

"How dare you hang up on me Jungkook?" Jin yelled but shut his mouth when he saw Taehyung's state. "Taehyung, what happened to you?" Jin said, rushing to taehyung's side, examining him.

"Do you want to tell them yourself or you want me to tell them?" Jungkook whispered into Taehyung's ear. Taehyung grabbed Jungkook's hand and looked at him, before focusing Jin and Hoseok.

"My father did this. He has been doing this for as long as I can remember. When you guys always ask me where I get bruises and cuts from... it's from him. I'm sorry that I lied to you guys but I just didn't want you guys to worry about me. Jungkook was the only one that I told because he wouldn't stop bothering me about it, so I just told him. I'm sorry for keeping this from you for a while," Taehyung explained before looking down at the sheet, feeling ashamed for not telling them. Jungkook looked at Jin and Hoseok for any negative expressions but only saw pitiful expressions. He smiled inside knowing that Taehyung has good friends.

"I'm sorry on his behalf for telling you guys either. He just told me not to tell anyone, so I respected what he said," Jungkook said, pulling away from Taehyung, who whined because of the loss of comfort.

Jungkook got up from the bed and pulled his friends outside the hospital room.

"Ok, I need help," Jungkook said as soon as he closed the room door.

"What do you need help with?" Jungkook's friend Namjoon said.

"I want to ask Taehyung out...on a date, but he is in the hospital now. I just don't know what to do, so I need help from you guys," Jungkook rambled. Namjoon and Yoongi glanced at each other with a small smile on their faces, before staring at him intensely. "What?" Jungkook asked, feeling uncomfortable under the stares of his two friends.

"How long have you known Taehyung?" Yoongi asked.

"About 2 months, why?" Jungkook curiously asked.

"How about when you get Taehyung out of this hospital today," Namjoon said

"Take him to your home to rest tonight," Yoongi continued,

"Then tell him tomorrow when you're ready," Namjoon finished, giving Yoongi a fistbump because of their amazing plan. Jungkook looked at them with a 'what the actual fuck is that?' face before shrugging his shoulders.

"I'll try doing that. Now go back in the room, while I go check Taehyung out of this stupid hospital," Namjoon and Yoongi nodded and gave salute signs before going back into the room.

I can't believe I'm doing this. Nothing can go wrong though..right?
