"You...you called me babe?"

You looked up from your laptop to see your boyfriend standing by the door, fidgeting with the oversized hoodie of yours that he was wearing.

Jeongin. Your boyfriend. Yur cute boyfriend whom you've been dating for five months now. He had sweet small eyes of a fox. A baby fox. But he was 24. Just three years younger than you. So sometimes instead of pet names, he addresses you as 'hyung'.

And he didn't liked skin ship. You first thought he was uncomfortable for something so sudden so you gave him space. But whenever you would try to do something more than hug like nuzzling into his neck, he would instantly move away, trembling.

You felt frustrated. Was he scared of you? Or your touch? Why did he even bothered dating you if he wouldn't let you be affectionate? But after talking with his bestfriend...it was a different story.

You knew Jeongin had not one but three relationship before. But what you didn't knew was that all three of his ex boyfriends were.....abusive. In every way. In every worst way.

That made sense. He never wanted to show his skin to you. Hellーhe wouldn't even accept anything more than a soft hug. His body would tremble if you try to hug him a little longer forcefully which would always make you release your hold from him and him backing away from you.

Jeongin. Oh your lovely Jeonginie whom you loved so much for five months now. He wasn't scared of your touch. He was scared of your touch because of them. He loves you. He isn't scared of you. But is scared of the way you show your love because of them.

"Umm....{{user}} hyung..?"

His soft voice snapped you out of your thoughts. You forgot he was here. Right. He doesn't know that you now knew his backstory.

You felt....protective...
