The first thing Taehyung saw, was Jeongguk bending over him, completely occupying his vision and making him gasp another time from their close proximity. "How are you feeling, Baby?", Jeongguk carefully asked, immediately backing away upon seeing Taehyung's terrified face. "W-what happened?", he asked with trembling voice while his eyes were trained on Jeongguk.

The cord around his wrist seemed to pulsate but Taehyung paid no mind to it, only focusing on Jeongguk which felt so natural it was almost as easy as breathing. "You blacked out in my arms after our talk", Jeongguk said worried, pressing Taehyung's hand to his cheek and breathing a kiss to his knuckles.

"I was worried sick I was going to lose you", Jeongguk mumbled while Taehyung stared at him wide eyed. The inside of his chest felt weird, his heart aching for the man in front of him, who has been wronged by so many and forced into a position just because he fell in love.

No matter how hard Taehyung tried, he couldn't ignore the truth of his heart and when he looked at the band circling around his wrists, it was made out of swirls of black and grey smoke. The little god of flowers now knew what it was representing. Or to be more correctly, who.

Jeongguk hasn't been lying and Taehyung started to believe what Morpheus told him. And he hoped since Jeongguk seemed to sincere about his love, he would let Taehyung see his father again.

"B-but how...? How am I awake? I thought only sunlight can save me", Taehyung whispered, coughing weakly because his throat was hurting and just this sound made Jeongguk get up from his position, his fingers shortly dancing in the air before he held a cup of water in his hand.

"Here, Baby, you must be thirsty", Jeongguk said, offering the cup to Taehyung and the little flower god shakily took it, grasping the porcelain with trembling fingers before he timidly looked up to the god.

"I don't understand...", he mumbled, staring down at the clear liquid and wondering if he should drink from it. A gasp fell from his dry lips when he saw a shimmering above his head in the reflecting water and a hand shot up to his hair.

Only to be engulfed with the warmth of sunlight. Taehyung tried looking, the dark fringe of his obsidian locks falling into his vision yet they could not hide the glowing above his head. "Wha-", Taehyung let out confused, not understanding what it was but then his eyes fell on the two persons standing nearby, one with a blank expression and the other looking as pained as he felt.

"H-Hobi", Taehyung breathed out, both surprised and happy. He squealed when the male came forward, latching onto his hold and hugging him close, the water spilling over his hand and running down his arm but Taehyung didn't mind, only focusing on Hoseok holding him. "H-Hyung, are you really here?", Taehyung asked in disbelief, shooting Jeongguk to his side a confused look, met with pained eyes.

It actually caused Taehyung to pull away from Hoseok who delicately held him, caressing Taehyung's cheek gently. "I am here to safe you", Hoseok whispered pained, a growl coming from the dark haired god next to them and before Hoseok knew it, he was pushed away by an invisible force, pinned to the cold stone wall next to Yoongi and being unable to move.

"You will not take him away from me, god of travel", Jeongguk growled, standing protectively in front of the petit beauty who surprisingly did not protest, staying silent while looking at Hermes with sad puppy eyes. "I did not reveal the past for you to betray me, I did not allow you to stay here so you can take what is most dear to me", Hades continued, protectively reaching behind and pulling Taehyung closer.

The god of flowers gasped but allowed the action, the little sun above his head framing it like a halo and made his beautiful features look even more ethereal. "W-what did you tell them, Jeongguk?", the most sweetest voice called out for Jeongguk's attention who was so willing to give Taehyung everything he had, turning around with a loving glint in his eyes.

"I told them what they needed to hear to save you, my treasure", Jeongguk mumbled sweetly, a fond look on his face when he lifted the cup to Taehyung's lips, noticing how dry they were. "Drink. It's not poisoned. You must know by now that I would never harm you... my sweet queen", Jeongguk whispered, only for Taehyung to hear.

And the little flower god believed him, was he not the only one to have never lied to him, always true with his feelings and intentions. It seemed like the supposed to be devil of the story was more than an angel than the rest of them. So Taehyung parted his lips, allowed the soothing liquid to run down his throat and still his thirst, eyes never leaving Jeongguk's while he was drinking.

Hoseok watched it, his heart breaking apart because how could he go against bonded souls? How could he wipe out that shy look in Taehyung's eyes, the softness with which Jeongguk was holding him, the deep stares? Hermes knew he was about to lose the one he loved.

Yoongi stared at his best friend, feeling pity and sadness rising in his chest when he saw Hoseok silently crying. The god of travel did not deserve to have his heart broken but he has fallen for the wrong person, someone who was never his to love. And Seokjin, unknowingly has fueled this unrequired love with engaging them, hoping Taehyung would fall for Hermes who was good, a good person and especially good for Taehyung.

Hoping he would forget about fate bounding him to someone else.

Yoongi understood Hoseok's pain, after all he was also loving someone he wasn't allowed to love. Bonded through the same fate to love someone they shouldn't, the two gods stood in hell and wondered why their destiny was meant to be gruesome.

The god of the sun cleared his throat and the two turned their attention away from each other. Taehyung gasped once more when he saw his dear friend. "Yoongi Hyung... why are you here?", Taehyung timidly asked, hand shyly resting on Jeongguk's arm.

Yoongi's heart clenched, he had his own mission to fulfill, bring Taehyung to Jimin, unlike what he has promised Hoseok. All of them had their own missions yet Yoongi could not bring it over him to separate these two cursed who have been tricked by destiny, separated for their love and wronged by so many. Yoongi could not bring it over him to pull them apart.

Not when he knew how they felt.

"Taehyung-ah, I've given you your own sun so you can survive in the underworld", Yoongi said with a weak smile, the god of flowers furrowing his brows before he understood and a knowing look flashed over his face. "Hyung... you did this for me?", Taehyung asked touched and the sun god nodded.

"So you won't die-- I know you might not be happy with this situation, but Tae... actually there is nothing I could say for you to believe me, not when you are not aware of my reasons behind. Just know that so many love you and want you safe. And I'm sure all of them will accept whatever your decision will be", Yoongi said, throwing a meaningful look at Jeongguk who stood beside Taehyung, silent and observing.

But he understood Helios' words.

Because he has seen what Yoongi was referring to.
