VENOM | TAEHYUNG

15

"Mr Norman- please ", I clasped my hands together, begging him to give me the night off.

"Anastasia, you haven't worked a shift in a few days. I've given gabby the night off. Now unless your mother is dying or you need to be admitted into a hospital then no - you are working the shift", he gestured for me to leave his office as Irene entered. She had started work last month. A petite little thing. "Okay-", I whisper defeated and leave. I didn't need to watch them fuck.

The club was alittle crowded tonight, being that it was 50% off on all alcohol.

I felt miserable about ditching kookie again. I'm sure he would assume the worst. Maybe I was hooking up with some secret lover. Even though taehyung had paid my debt - I still had a contract to work here. Until that was over- I'd have to sit my ass and obey.

Jungkooks pov:

My flower :

Sorry about canceling ♡.
I'll make it up to you.

"Do you think she's cheating ?".

My mother looked over her shoulder, giving a little laugh. "The girl looks at you as if she's never experienced love in all her life. Don't utter such nonsense. Maybe that family issue has gotten worse and she's just embarrassed to speak to you about it", her advice made more sense. Anastasia would never play me for a fool. "But she can trust me-", I whisper. "And I'm sure she knows that. When she's ready , it'll happen. Now give me a hand with the lasagna ".

Look at me. Sitting with my mother instead of being with my girl. Some called me a mama's boy and I didn't give a fuck.

"Why would taehyung lie?", I ask and she pinched my cheek - "he's trying to bond. He probably didn't know what else to say -", she giggled. The thought of him and I bonding sorta warmed my heart but that doesn't explain why Anastasia was wearing his jacket or the sudden Gucci fashion. Again - I was making assumptions with no evidence.

"They didn't have spinach- so I just took the meatballs-", we both turn to taehyung. "Oh hey-", he greet and I nod. "Tae sweetheart. We're having a vegetable lasagna-", she swat his arm but took the meatballs. He casually rubbed his arm and came to sit beside me. My eyes staying on him as he pulled out his phone. Why was I trying to sneak a peek? Fuck. He tilt his head , probably trying to understand a text. "I gave the burger to Anastasia-", I blurt, expecting a reaction but he said mumbled okay. "We're having a function at the office. I was wondering if I could borrow an outfit from you-", he looked up with a raised brow. "Will my clothes fit?", he asked and I pout - "I'm not fat-".

He gave a nod , "Sure ". I scratch the back of my neck, trying not to make it obvious. "The Gucci jacket you had on the other night. Can I borrow that?". For a second I thought he glitched but the man didn't falter. "Yeah , you want me to bring it tomorrow?". I had no choice but to nod. "Yeah thanks tae-", I turn to mother who had a grin on her face. She enjoyed when we spoke. Like I mentioned, she hated tae being lonely.

Suddenly I felt bad for even assuming he had anything to do with Anastasia.

"Wanna shoot pool?", I ask and he nod.

Anastasia's pov:

"I'm taking 5 dollars back -", he snatched it out my hand. "You've got a boney ass-", he complained and left the booth. I stare down at the 5 dollars in my hand. I had been working for 3 hours and only made 15 dollars.

For a moment I was grateful he had helped me out.

Exiting the booth , I collide into Chloe. "There you are", she pulled me into a corner. "What?", I ask concerned. "You won't believe who the fuck showed up -", her eyes continuously glancing around as if we were being stalked. "Who?", I was curious. "Jackson-", at the mention of this name , my stomach churned and I felt sick. "W- are you sure?", I found myself stuttering. "Yes , so stay away from the vip booth -", she warned and I thank her before heading into the restroom.

Gripping the basin - I inhale sharply, staring at myself in the mirror. It's been years since we last saw each other. Jackson was a fucking plague. He wrecked whatever he got his hands on. I was thankful for Chloe. She knew how I felt about him.

"Avoiding me?".

My eyes widen and I gulp as our eyes met through the reflection. "Hey beautiful", he stepped closer and I gripped the basin harder. "Wow- they told me you have grown. I needed to see it for myself-", he hovered from behind. I couldn't move an inch. My breath hitched in my throat. "You're still so sexy-", he groped my ass and I gasp ,turning around swiftly only to be grabbed by the throat and shoved hard into the dark wall. "Jackson-",I whimper. "Think you're all grown? Don't ever fucking forget who taught you how to fuck-", he pressed his lips against my cheek . "By force -", I sob and he chuckled. "Yeah- wanna tempt me again?", I cry out when his hand slipped between my legs.

"Please- please! Don't!", I scream but he choked me harder until I was suffocating. "Stop-", I shriek. "Be my little bitch-", he began kissing my exposed shoulder. "No-  I can't breathe-", I struggle. My little hands pushing at his chest. "Please-", I whimper as his hand snaked into my panties. "Stop !", I scream. 

"What the fuck! Get off her -", Chloe had come to my rescue. The second he turned to glare at her , I push myself away from him and into her safe arms. "Fuck off -", he snapped at her but gave me a wink. "Don't ever touch her again -" , she warned in a brittle voice. "Or what? Norman doesn't give a fuck about you whores -", he leaned against the wall ,laughing.  I nudge Chloe and she took the hint and dragged me out of the restroom.

"Are you okay?", she sat me down in the make up room. I ignore her question and hug her instead. "It's okay-", she held me tightly as I cried into her shoulder. I had always thought if he tried to rape me again , I'd be stronger. But  - I wasn't. If it weren't for Chloe,  god knows tonight would have ended in agonizing pain.

01 : 48 am

With mama sound asleep- I run my fingertips over the blue marks he had imprinted on my neck. The memory alone made me sniffle.

My phone buzzed and I lift It from the basin.

Satan :
You up?

I wipe my wet cheeks before responding.

Me:
Yes.
Just got home from the club.
You weren't there last night.
How come?

The thought of having taehyung be there made me cry even more. Maybe if he were annoying me ,I would have never bumped into Jackson. Maybe if I were with kookie , safe In his apartment- I wouldn't have seen that trash.

Satan :

Spent the night at my
parents place.

Me:
Wish you were there

I hit send in that emotional state.

I knew i fucked up when he didn't reply. No title remember. He doesn't owe me anything. I sniffle again and head to my bedroom. Hopefully sleep will drown the pain.
