Heads up: You may get the creeps in this book but it's meant to be that way but i'm trying my best not to make the book too dark.

Taehyung stared at the message not once but five times.
Blood immediately rushed to his cheeks.
His heart pounded like he had been fed a tone of candy.
The back of his neck felt warm too.
He didn't know whether this feeling was good or bad but one thing he did know is that he felt good.
He was in disbelief and dazed at the same time.
Beautiful. He called him beautiful and no one had done that before.
That word stood out to him.
He didn't think he was beautiful but it gave him a good feeling to be called beautiful.
He felt beautiful all because on random stranger called him that.

He snapped out of it and finally messaged back.
What possessed him?
He didn't know but it felt like he should go with the flow.
That's how you make friends right?
So he did.

Taehyung:

Hey handsome ;)

seen

Poor Taehyung.
Innocent and naive.
He used the emoji with the intentions of being 'friendly' because sometimes he uses it with Jimin.
They use it as a joke.
He didn't know that it had given off the wrong message to the stranger on the other side.
They were amused and slightly taken aback by the bold message.

Taehyung nibbled on his finger tips.
Then his phone pinged again;

Jeongguk:

Hey

How are you?

When Taehyung saw the message he saw no harm in it.
How was he?
He didn't pay attention to his feelings.
What did he feel?
Usually hs would be cowering in the corner and trying to block out the sounds of the blood crawling sounds outside his bedroom.
But tonight was different.
Tonight he had someone to listen.
Someone that he didn't know and he didn't have to see face to face.

Taehyung:

I'm good ^-^

How are you?

Jeongguk:

That's good to hear beautiful

I'm good :)

Can I ask you a question?

Taehyung was surprised on how fast this guy was replying.
He liked it.
He liked being called beautiful.
The stranger called him beautiful not once but twice and Taehyung was blushing.
He was blushing a little too much for someone that just started talking to someone online.

He pat his cheeks.
There was a slam on his door.
Then a groan.
He would usually shake but right now he was distracted and it prevented him from even reacting.
He tapped away on the box screen again;

Taehyung:

Yeah sure :>

Jeongguk:

Is that really you in your profile?

Taehyung was confused.

Taehyung:

Yes?

Why?

Jeongguk:

How can I be sure that it's you?

Can you send a pic?

Sorry I just want to make sure that you're not a catfish :)

Catfish?
Taehyung frowned.
How could he be a catfish?
What did the stranger mean?
Nevertheless he went through his gallery and selected a photo to send to the other;
