FOUR

Four Months Later:

After suffering at school for months Ae-Cha begins to get sick daily and put on weight, by this time Taehyung has sort of an idea that's going on with her. Ae-Cha debates on telling everyone now what had happened months back, she knows she should but guilt overwhelms her. "Are you pregnant Ae-Cha?", Taehyung asks very bluntly and she looks at him very shocked. She shakes her head as if she's trying to shake a dream from her head, then wiping her eyes of the sleep among them. "What?", she asks him in disbelief, and confusion. Taehyung stays there silent looking down, and she thinks "It could be possible...but...she starts crying thinking that she more than likely is due to the teacher's actions. "Who did this...", Taehyung trails off as he starts getting pissed because he knows she wouldn't hide a relationship if she had one. Taehyung gulps, balling his fist up, "Who raped you Ae-Cha?". Ae-Cha looks up at him surprised he figured it out, "H-how did you know?", she looks down avoiding his gaze. "The bruises, cowering away from people, all the tampons, no one bleed that long and often, the avoiding eye contact... And now you've been sick daily and putting on a little weight...So, who did it?", Ae-Cha gulps before answering his question. "Mr. Cho.", she says simply, knowing he wouldn't wanna wait for the answer. "You're history teacher?", he says this gently, trying to keep his anger hidden. She nods slowly, and he asks, "How long has he...", "Since day one of school.", she says not wanting to lie or hide things anymore. Taehyung sighs and nods understanding why she changed so much after summer.

Time Skip to noon:

The boys are over at Ae-Cha's house again today, but she doesn't mind... She wants to tell all of them what happened, and why she's been acting like she has, even towards them. After using the bathroom and changing her tampon she sits on the couch next to Taehyung and whispers to him, "I'm going to tell them... They should know too...", he simply nods and holds her hand, which leaves her froze for a second as her heart pounds. Flustered she looks down shyly and asks why he's doing that quietly. Taehyung says he's trying to comfort her and she gulps and nods slightly. Ae-Cha says out of nowhere, "Guys... I need to tell everyone something... and it might come as a shock to all of you...", she trails off as her heart continues pounding, she then takes a deep breath to finish her sentence because they're all waiting. Jimin says calmly but with concern, "Take your time, we're here to listen, and we don't want you to rush.", he smiles gently at her. She looks down and lets a tear fall, she looks back up at the boys and says, "The reason I've been so distant with all of you is that...Mr. Cho...h-he raped me and continues to do so...", finishing that sentence was the hardest thing she's had to ever do. She lets all of her emotions overflow as she zones out and cries her heart out. Ae-Cha grabs her head and rocks back and forth as she lets all of her held in emotions out. A few minutes pass and Taehyung pulls her back in, "Ae-Cha?", she looks up at him slightly confused about what had happened. "You told them, and you starting having a panic attack", he says with empathy across his face. Ae-Cha nods as she looks over at everyone else and they're all crying as well, especially Jimin, and she gulps looking down. "I never told y'all until now because I didn't want you guys to get hurt...Until Taehyung figured it out and asked me earlier today...", Taehyung nods in response and the others follow suit. All of them one by one give her a hug and she can't help but think to herself, "They're not mad at me?" Not knowing she had accidentally said it out loud, they all respond by saying, "Why would we be mad at you? You did nothing wrong Ae-Cha". She nods kind of caught off guard.

Later that day:

Taehyung and Ae-Cha are in the car driving to the clinic so she can get a pregnancy test. Ae-Cha is in her seat slightly rocking in fear that she is pregnant. Taehyung takes her hand in his and rubs his fingers over her's and says sweetly, "It'll be okay, I'll be right by your side. I'm not going anywhere." Is he saying he loves me? She shakes her head at her thoughts and thanks him for being here for her all the time when he doesn't have to. They arrive at the clinic and she looks down at their hands, emotions flood her yet again. Not again... Taehyung kisses Ae-Cha's hand and looks down at her, "I'm here.", he says as he wipes her tears from her red face. After they leave she cries on their way back, and he grips the wheel so hard he thought he'd break his knuckles but he could care less. He just wants to beat the shit out of that pedophile and ruin his life.

End of the night:

Laying down Ae-Cha faces the wall and can't stop thinking she never wants to return to school, she wants to run away. Even though this child is from that bastard, she wants to keep it, she knows the baby did nothing wrong and didn't ask to be here. Just like her. Taehyung is the only one that didn't leave at the end of the day, he wants to stay as he told her he would. He slides into the bed next to her and asks if he can hold her and she nods. After a few minutes, they fall asleep in each other's arms, and both feel at ease.

Hey! I hope y'all like this update! It's been a minute, I'm sorry about it. Life got in the way and had some personal issues to deal with. Thank you for being patient.
