RED HOUR | VKOOK ✔

CHAPTER EIGHT.

The three of them sat in the living room. Taehyung and Lucy sat together and Jeongguk was alone on the other sofa. The sun still hasn't risen and yet that made Jeongguk nervous. He didn't wanna leave yet as he still doesn't know where to go and he still couldn't find Yoongi.

"What were you doing here so early?" Lucy asked Taehyung who wrapped his arms around her waist, face still remained blank.

"I wanted to see you."

That made the doe eyed male who was sitting quietly in front of them turn his gaze and look at Taehyung. He is wondering who the fuck Taehyung was.

He is not used to seeing them together. In fact, it kinda irked him that they are together.

I mean who couldn't blame Jeongguk? When he was a little boy he saw his grandfather and grandmother being lovey dovey to each other. Not until his grandfather died of sickness, leaving him and his grandmother and father. Well, his mother died in an accident when was so young so the three of them remained together.

Seeing his younger version of his grandmother with someone else who wasn't his grandfather, it annoyed him to the core.

He kinda...wanted to break them apart.

"Dad might see you, Taehyung. He doesn't want you here. I'm still not allowed to see you."

"He won't see me, don't worry. Besides, I'm about to leave anyway." Taehyung kissed her cheek and looked at Jeongguk.

That familiar shiver, Jeongguk felt it again. He can't help but to blush a bit when Taehyung's stare linger on him for a while.

Taehyung turns his gaze back to Lucy, eyes still remain cold and face blank. "You said last night he doesn't have any place to go right?"

"Yeah, wait, you'll let him stay at yours?" Lucy asked, bewildered. Her boyfriend is never the type to bring a stranger into his house. Heck, she hasn't even gone there. Not even once.

"If he wants to." Taehyung looked at the doe eyed male.

Jeongguk looked at Taehyung in disbelief. He'll let him stay at his house? Jeongguk doesn't even know him! But yet again, he doesn't have a choice, he has no place to stay. The only person he knows in this timeline is his grandmother yet she doesn't even know him, at all.

She doesn't even know that he is her grandson that came from the future. Jeongguk is all alone.

The doe eyed male sighed. He doesn't want to but what choice does he have? He'll have to leave this place as soon as possible because his great-grandfather doesn't trust a stranger like him enough to stay at their house at least for days.

He has to go with Taehyung.

"Are you serious Taehyung?" Lucy looked at him in disbelief.

Taehyung nodded. "I wanna help him."

"Oh okay." Lucy looked down but smiled afterwards when Taehyung quickly pecked her cheeks.

"So, what do you say? Are you coming with me or not?" Taehyung slowly turned around and looked at Jeongguk, giving the doe eyed male who was staring right back at him access with his red bandana on his hair, forehead exposed and a small smile visible on his face.

Jeongguk's face heats up. "I-Im going."

"Good boy." He heard Taehyung whisper.

"Go now before father might see you two." Lucy said.

A blushing mess, that's what Jeongguk is right now when he left the mansion with Taehyung. He took a quick look around the neighborhood.

Sun's light is already peeking. The neighborhood is quite fancy, just like what he saw last night. Though he could clearly see it now because it's morning already. Oh, he could also see a black car just a few feet away from the mansion. Maybe Taehyung's?

"Let's go." said Taehyung, walking towards his car.

Jeongguk looked back at Lucy. The girl gave him a smile. "Don't worry Jeongguk, we'll meet again!"

I hope so. The doe eyed male thought.

"Thank you for letting me stay the night." He gave her a quick smile and went towards Taehyung and his car, opening the front door and sitting next to the bandana hair styled man.

Taehyung immediately started the car and drove away, leaving Lucy standing alone in their mansion.

The drive was silent. Jeongguk could feel the awkward tension between them. He took a quick look at Taehyung who was silently driving.

He wore a black leather jacket, making Taehyung look hot more than ever in his eyes. He then slowly moved his stare to Taehyung's veiny hands on the steering wheel. Jeongguk gulped and looked away immediately.

He cannot be distracted right now. Nope, he can't. He has a mission to carry. He has to find V first, kill him and then he's done.

But what Jeongguk doesn't know is that the person he is looking for is beside him.

"So," Taehyung started. "Where did you came from?"

Shit.

Jeongguk gulped. He doesn't know what to reply. "I-I don't know."

"You don't know?" Taehyung asked.

Blank and emotionless eyes of Taehyung stared at Jeongguk and the poor boy couldn't help but to awkwardly laugh. What else does he have to say? That he's from the future? He'll just make himself look like a lunatic in front of Taehyung.

"I-I came from far away and I stumbled here in your neighborhood." Jeongguk gulped.

"So I'm supposed to believe what you say?" Taehyung's dark eyes roamed around Jeongguk's body.

"Um, no?" Shit. Jeongguk internally panicked.

"Okay."

Jeongguk wanted to scream. Why did he say that? He can't afford Taehyung to be suspicious about him.

Taehyung suddenly turned the radio on, startling Jeongguk a little bit. The radio was playing Rock N Roll by Led Zeppelin. The sound that is playing didn't even help erase Jeongguk's nervousness at all.

"Since you don't know where you came from like you claim to say, I'll give you a place to stay. Stay at my house for days."

Jeongguk gulped again when Taehyung continued, "However, in one condition. I need you to do something for me."

Taehyung immediately stopped the car and Jeongguk almost flew if not for his seat belt attached to him.

Taehyung moved to Jeongguk closer, so close that their noses were already touching. Jeongguk's doe eyes met Taehyung's orbs.

Taehyung roamed his eyes again all over the younger's body and couldn't help but to lick his lips. He realized that the younger male has a great body and he couldn't help but to linger his stare at it for a while.

A smirk immediately went to his face and met Jeongguk's nervous face staring right back at him.

"W-What is it?" Jeongguk not being a nervous wreck right now would be a total lie cause the doe eyed male is nervous as fuck on what Taehyung could do to him.

"I want you to become my slave."
