  Taehyung is beyond tired at this point.

  He went through so many stages; denial, despair, feeling like giving up on everything, and now he's just angry. Angry at himself, angry at Siwoo, angry at Kwan for being such a piece of shit— she deserved to die.

  As anger surges through Taehyung, he hides away in fear of taking things out on his friends instead of who he should be taking it out on. That's another reason he's angry— he didn't get to smash Siwoo's head against the wall and rip it off the moment he laid eyes on him.

If Jimin had told him that Siwoo was a bad guy from the beginning, he would've forced Yoongi to stand by him even if the young vampire tried to pull away from him.

  It would be six versus two if Yoongi were to try and fight back. And Hoseok isn't only a vampire, either. He could do some magic or some sort of spell to ruin them all if he wanted to. He's done it before.

  Taehyung is beyond angry at himself for only just now thinking these things instead of thinking then, while they were in the moment.

  But he's even more angry at the fact that he probably won't be seeing Siwoo anytime soon. He has no idea where Yoongi and Siwoo are or what he's told Yoongi about his very own closest friends and boyfriend— things that are most likely downright made up.

  Taehyung is pissed beyond words.

  He'd do anything to be able to put a wooden stake right through the heart of the one who stole his boyfriend. Over and over again, he'd stab that man, twist the wood inside his heart, laugh at the face of death as Siwoo endures his last moments staring right back at death himself; Kim Taehyung.

  He will kill him.

  "Kim Taehyung, you freaking asshole!"

Taehyung's mouth gapes open at the familiar sound of Jimin's voice. He turns his head to see not only Jimin, but Hoseok walking with him. They're walking up to him.

  "I've been looking all over for you! Have you been here this entire time?" Jimin asks, irritated as Taehyung averts his eyes.

  He's sitting against Yoongi's house— right where he'd broken his precious lover's bone not too long ago. Taehyung wonders if Yoongi even remembers that.

  "I've only been here for a while," he tells them. Jimin frowns down at him.

  "Taehyungie, you've gotta get up. That asshole has been waving Yoongi around like meat on a stick to a bunch of hungry dogs." Jimin kicks lightly at Taehyung's foot. "Tae." He crouches down to look Taehyung in the eye. "Tae, baby, Yoongi's okay. He's been going to school and he's still here. He's okay."

  Those words make Taehyung's heart feel much lighter than before. For days, it's felt heavy. Right now, with Jimin's reassurance and knowing Yoongi is okay and is still around here makes him feel a little better. Especially knowing that Yoongi is okay. He should've looked at the school— but he didn't figure that Yoongi would be going there right now.

  How...

  "School?" he questions.

  Jimin grimaces to himself. "That fucking piece of shit has him hostage, I swear, but he's treating Yoongi all normal as if we couldn't totally kill his ass in seconds. He knows we won't cause trouble at school."

  "He's at the school now?" Taehyung groans to himself. "Can't he just—" Though he wants to say disappear, he knows that if Siwoo disappears, Yoongi will too. "Why is he doing that? Why didn't he just run off with Yoongi or something?"

Not that he wants him to.

"I told you," Jimin sighs as he plops down next to him. Hoseok follows quietly. "He's doing it because of me, Tae. I'm sorry. He just wants revenge on me, and you know what? It's working." He rests his head on Taehyung's shoulder. "You're my best friend. I'm sorry, but he knows that hurting you is hurting me."

  Jimin has always cared too much for others. Right now it seems to be a bad thing.

  "No need to apologize." For once this week, Taehyung gets up and rolls his shoulders back in full confidence. "I'll kill his ass even in front of the principal or a hundred students. I don't care anymore."

"I- I wouldn't go that far," Hoseok quickly says as he gets up as well. "That'll give away everything, Taehyung. We still live in a world with humans, you know. We're supposed to be a secret. If they know..."

  "What? You think they'll kill me for being a vampire? At the most, they'll wanna put me in a lab."

  Jimin squeaks, "You aren't going to any lab or being killed! We'll figure out how to get him alone, you dummy. But please just come back home so we can talk about it. I'm tired of searching around for you. You shouldn't have run away like you did— your boyfriend is being brainwashed right now."

  He knows he shouldn't have.

  But while he had all this time alone, he rested a lot and thought enough to know exactly what he wants to do now.

  First of all, he wants his boyfriend back. He doesn't care if Yoongi loves him or not, doesn't care if he gets his memory back fully or not, he doesn't even care if Yoongi hates him from whatever Siwoo has told him. He just wants his boyfriend— wants Yoongi to be safe.

  Secondly...

  He's going to kill Han Siwoo.

  Whether it's the last thing he ever does or the greatest choice he's ever made to live through, he's going to end the life of that man.
