Viktoria's POV

I haven't seen Jin for a while. I know he left the hospital two days after he got there. Jackson was sending only short texts to Kaya.

I start to think that our time together is over and it's time to go back to reality. Story was pretty pleasant except a few moments but it's done.

It's few minutes after 8pm and getting dark. I'm on my way home from shopping centre. I was in CCC to give shoes to the complaint. They make crap not shoes nowadays. They broke after month of wearing them. I wrap myself up in a jumper because even though it's May it's still chilly in the evenings.

I'm approaching bus stop where I can see something going on. A group of five football fans – although they have club scarves I don't know what club that is – come against one guy. There is small shaking blonde girl standing behind him. Probably those guys were bothering her and he took up a cause. Rest of people waiting for a bus walked safe distance away. Human callousness has no bounds! Why isn't someone helping him?

I pulled phone out of my pocket and called police. I felt like that's all I can do. I walked around a bus stop wanting to be unnoticed and to help that girl. That's when I heard a conversation between football fans and "a hero".

-Now what, yellow guy, are you scared?

-You shouldn't be here. Poland's for Poles.

They were talking one over another pushing a man and provoking him to fight. He was answering in English what made them even more annoyed.

I approached a girl and moved her away from a fuss. At that moment guy who helped her said something in Korean. I couldn't understand what he said but I knew that voice. I turned around and looked more carefully and his body. You can't get wrong those wide shoulders. Jin! Why didn't I recognise him sooner?

Situation was getting worse. Fans being like a bear with a sore head were preparing to fight and it happened in a second. Jin was losing and getting punched again and again. Suddenly one of them brought knife out. Oh my god!

I spotted a bus. Didn't pay attention what line number that was. As soon as door opened I pushed petite blonde girl inside and told driver to close all the doors except the back ones. I run through the bus. I jumped out and run into fighting boys and pushed Jin into a bus. When we were inside, driver closed the door and moved forward. We both fell to the floor. Before we pulled out I could see shocked faces of attackers when they were being caught by police officers.

We were lying on a floor, me underneath Jin who was barely alive

-Yah! Michigo ma! Chugule! – I shouted at him

He looked at me half alive.

-Victoria – he whispered and passed out.

-Great – I muttered.

I took phone out of pocket and called Jackson. He answered after two signals.

-Victoria? Why are you calling me? – he asked almost angry.

Good to hear you too.

-We've got a problem and I need your help. It's about Jin.

-What happened? – I could hear he got nervous.

-He passed out. I'm on a bus number #xx#, on a stop #name#.

-Get out on a second stop from now on, #name#. I'll be there.

-Thanks.

We hang up.

I looked at Jin, touched his cut lip. I'm sorry I didn't recognize you sooner.

I looked around. Everyone was staring at us. Some people were even taking photos and filming. What the hell! I noticed girl whom Jin helped in a distance. I nodded and she approached me hesitantly.

-Are you ok? – I asked

She shook her head and pointed at Jin.

-He'll be alright. Calm down. – I smiled

A voice indicative bus stop's name came. We already were where Jackson told us to get off. I spotted him and Mark through the window. When the door opened they came inside and took unconscious Jin out. I followed them and some blonde girl followed me.

-What's happened? – asked Jackson

-He defended a girl – I pointed at stranger – got defeated and typically passed out – I explained.

I felt weird and started to feel dizzy.

-What's your name? – Mark asked a girl

I think she didn't understand because she didn't answer.

-We will take you to the hospital – said Jackson

We were walking to Mark's car. I felt more and more dizzy. With the next step I lost footing and it became dark.

Jin's POV

I open my eyes and the light blinds me. I know it well. Hospital! What am I doing here again? It isn't long since my last time here.

-We see each other often lately, Mr Kim. – I heard my neurologist.

I looked at him. He was standing next to my bed with a chart in his hand making notes. After a second he looked at me and smiled.

-What happened? – I asked

-You got attacked or something – he said shrugging – don't worry. You've got a few bruises, abrasions and cut head.

-Comforting – I muttered

-You can go home tomorrow afternoon – he said and walked away

I was lying down staring at a ceiling. Hospital and unpleasant memories connected with it again. I want to go home. He said someone attacked me? I looked into my memory to remind what happened before I passed out.

I was going back from computer service because my laptop started to act crazy. I was standing at a bus stop waiting for a bus because I didn't want to walk back. My leg was in such a pain. It made develope the conviction that I had to go to the orthopedist. I'm calling him tomorrow. I've decided. There were a few people at the stop. At some point football fans joined us. They were drunk, noisy and a bit aggressive. They started to pick up innocent blonde girl and talk bad. No one was reacting. What is wrong with these people? They moved away and were looking at their phones. Men moved closer to almost crying girl. She was trapped. I walked between them and girl like some sort of a superman. Attackers started to abuse me and swear, at least that's what it seems like because I didn't understand but their words sounded negative and whole situation... I could feel girl moving back. I got slapped a few times. They were pushing me so I attack them. I'm not the best at fights expecially since I had to transfer from being right handed to being left handed. However when one of guys punched me and cut my lip I couldn't stand it and he got one as well. Then luck have left me. I was getting punched and they were avoiding my blows. Suddenly one of them took knife out. I'm dead already! I don't know how I found myself on a bus. I think I saw Victoria but then I fainted.

I sighed heavily. Why would I see Victoria in such a situation? How the hell would she be there? I sat up. I glanced at my left bandaged hand, touched sore lip with other one. You wanted to be a hero.

I looked around a room. I was in Emergency Room. I noticed Jackson walking through the door. He was going my way.

-What's up bro? Are you better now? – he asked sitting down onto my bed.

-I've been worse. How did I come here?

-Me and Mark drove you – he said as if it was obvious.

-How did you know where I am and need help? – that was a puzzle for me.

-Victoria called us – why can't he answer with more complex sentences?

-What?!

-Shush... - silenced me a nurse walking by. I muttered apologies.

-I don't know much – he started – I was at Mark's when she called and said you fainted and that you're on a bus and need help. We came on the next bus stop and drove you three to the hospital.

-The three of us?

-Unconscious you and Victoria plus girl who followed her.

-Wait a second. Was Victoria unconscious too? I thought you said she called you.

-She passed out when you got out the bus.

-What happened to her? – anxiety was growing in me. What if she got hurt because of me?

-Her hand was cut, she lost a lot of blood and fainted. She's there, at the end of a room. – he pointed in the right direction.

-I looked that way. Half of the person was hidden behind the curtain. All I could see was leg sticking out from under cover and a girl sitting next to Victoria's bed. Probably girl I've helped.

-Don't worry. She'll be okay. She's got stitches and now she's resting – said Jackson when I wasn't saying anything for a while.

-Yea, I know. How did she appear there?

-I don't know. Maybe we should ask that girl? I don't know if she'll answer though. She didn't say a word.

She didn't say anything? Why? Maybe she doesn't understand english. Or she's mute? Or she's just shocked?

-Oh, she's coming our way – I could hear Jackson saying.

I turned my head around and she was indeed. Her face was nice, you could see big, blue and scared eyes. She was about our age. She stopped next to my bed. She wasn't looking me in the eyes, just glancing every now and then.

-How are you? – I asked nicely. Silence. – Do you speak English? – she nodded. Phew... we'll make it work.

-Thank you – she said so quiet I wasn't sure of what I've heard.

-You're welcome. Are you ok?

-Yes. They gave me something to calm down.

-Have a sit – said Jackson giving her place.

Girl, being obey, sat down.

I wanted to introduce myself but I didn't know if I should my real name. What if she'll talk to Victoria? You only live once.

-I'm SeokJin. You? – I pulled my hand out to greet.

-Eva – she shook my hand.

-Nice to meet you – I smile – Could you tell me how we ended up on a bus? I remember fighting with those fans and then being on a bus. I have no idea how I got there.

-Eva was thinking about it for a while. She glanced at the other end of room.

-That girl helped us – she pointed at Victoria's bed – She dragged us to the bus as soon as it arrived at the stop.

She told in details about what Victoria did before, after and while on a bus. My admiration for Victoria was growing with her every word. How come she's so brave? She's a girl. And she wasn't scared to jump in between fighting guys.

What she said now made my heart hurt.

-One of those guys had a knife and when she came for you he cut her. She didn't even notice. She was so worried about you. I was so scared.

Eva started to cry and wasn't able to talk anymore.

Worried only about me? Jackson said she's lost a lot of blood so it couldn't be just any wound. And she didn't notice it? Why would she care about me? I'm just exchange student. Maybe... Victoria knows who I am. No, it's impossible. She would say something, wouldn't she?

I looked her way. I wanted to know how she is feeling. I got out of bed carefully. Jackson opposed but I wasn't hurt that much.

I approached her and opened a curtain. She was asleep. She looked so calm. Is she smiling? Maybe she had a nice dream. What caught my attention was her bandaged arm. It really looks like a serious wound. How do I give her back? She put her health and life for me and I'm lying to her. She's like my guardian angel, always appears in a right moment. You'll go to hell you ingrate. I touched her healthy hand. It was so pleasant. When I noticed a ring saying BTS*12.06.2013 on her finger I died. She is a BTS' fan! Does she know me? Maybe she discovered band after I quit, I wasn't with them that long.

Victoria's phone started to ring and that got me out of thinking. I glanced at screen. Kim NamJoon? THAT Kim NamJoon? How on earth he's calling her? Maybe it's my phone? Maybe we switched again. But it's not my ringtone. I was deeply in shock. What the hell is going on?

I could feel someone's hand on my shoulder. It was Jackson.

-Why are you so pale? Do you feel sick? – he closely watched my face.

-I don't understand – I started – I just discovered Victoria is BTS' fan – he pointed at her hand – and if it's not enough one of my friends just called her.

Jackson wasn't even surprised. I wasn't expecting that kind of reaction. Maybe he knew? Did he tell her? Jackson was staring at Victoria's hand with his head down. Say something for fuck's sake! Time's over, phone rings again. I was angry or should I say pissed... I took phone in anger and answered before terrified Jackson stopped me.

-Victoria-ssi, it's NamJoon.

-Noona, Annoyonghaseyo JungKook-imnida.

Leader and maknee said in sync. It's not their first conversation. How long so they "know" each other for?

-NamJoon. JungKook – I said angry.

-Hyung! – I heard surprised maknae's voice.

-I was meant to call Victoria. Did I got numbers wrong?

-No, you didn't. We are together and your noona is asleep and can't answer.

Silence. They didn't expect me to answer the phone. And what I just said got them good.

-I think you have an explanation to do – I added.

NamJoon told me about how they started to contact each other. She knew who I am from the beginning – that fact was stuck in my head.

-Why didn't you tell me? – I asked.

-Noona didn't want to worry you. She said you must have had reasons not to tell her truth. She understands.

I looked at her. How are you gonna surprise me next time?

-Hyung, don't be mad at noona. She's great girl. – said JungKook.

I didn't know anything. I've got a mess in my mind.

-Let's talk another time. It's late. Bye. – I hung up not waiting for answer.

I left phone on a side table and bend my head down.

-What did they say? – asked Jackson.

-Did you know about all of this? – I answered question with a question. I looked at my friend. He looked away.

-I found out last time you got to the hospital. Victoria was at Radiology Department when you were having CT scan done. She told me about everything.

-Why didn't someone tell me? You or boys? And why was Victoria so good at pretending about being lied to?

-She said she wants what is good for you. I was mad at her and shouted at her. I still don't know what to think about it – Jackson sighed heavily.

-I need to think. Go home.

I gotup from chair and got back to bed. Blonde girl was gone. Jackson, a bit resentful,went out without hesitation.
