VENOM | TAEHYUNG

Anastasia's pov:
-

The day hadn't gone as planned.

No picnic.
No lake fishing.

Just everyone staying to themselves.

I guess the family trip was a flop and it wasn't thanks to taehyung. It was them both. If they hadn't gotten into a fist fight then everyone would have had a long blissful day, making memories to last a lifetime.

Jungkook had said that taehyung got pissed when he tried to speak to him about communicating more. I for one did not buy that. I was a professional liar and if jungkook thinks he can just lie then he's wrong. Taehyung may have snapped with words but to draw blood? There was  definitely more said and done. I wasn't going to pry though. I had given him space to settle since the dispute. Taehyung hadn't left his bedroom and their mother turned to her knitting hobby to calm herself.

Their father had gone out but he didn't mention where. Just got into his car and left.

That's how everyone spent the day. Beautiful weather by the way. I had sat outside, reading online books because I didn't carry any hardcover ones. I didn't expect this to happen and ruin the trip. The brothers had unresolved issues for sure. They needed to sit down and speak about it instead of allowing it to build. Because we've seen what bottled up emotions lead too. Fist fights and blood .

No one's pov:

The task of supper fell onto Anastasia's shoulders. She was ever so grateful to prepare food but she also knew no one was going to come to the dining room to feast together. So she thought she'd prepare and leave it in casseroles - just incase they wanted to eat alone.

Everyone was in their bedrooms while she danced around in the kitchen. The soft voice of Stephen Sanchez playing from the radio filled her ears. Carefully- she rolled up the salmon into freshly baked bread. A simple meal just to fill the hungry. "Smells good-", his sleepy voice made her lift her eyes to find his. "Hey-", she gave a smile as he sat on the stool , propping his elbow onto the island and resting his chin into his raised palm. Long fingers covering his cheek. "Did you enjoy your sleep?", she asked ,turning to check on the salmon being cooked in the oven. "Woke up with a headache-", he complained.

"Do you guys have pills stocked ?", she asked, turning to look at him. "Not that I know of", taehyung mumbled. "Should I check?", she asked in a concerned tone but he simply shook his head. "I'll be fine-", he mumbled. "Care for some salmon stuffed bread ?", she pushed the casserole toward him. Taehyung stared at the neatly wrapped fish. "C'mon , just one ", she begged and he furrowed his brows , , taking one. "Careful, they're alittle hot", she warned and he nod , gently blowing before taking a nibble. "Well?", she waited patiently for his judgement. "Uhm, maybe add some creamy sauce. Not really a salmon fanatic but its good -", he flicked a thumb and continued to eat.

"I thought about adding the sauce but I decided it's up to you guys. I don't want to add something that everyone might not like , so the sauce is in the fridge", he stood,  going to retrieve the sauce. "I enjoy it ", he gave a smile and she returned it. "Lip is looking better than this morning-", she noticed and he hummed while drenching the salmon in the cheddar, mushroom sauce. "Slow down cowboy ", her eyes widening as he covered the mini roll with the sauce. "I prefer not to see what I'm eating -", he lift it to his mouth. The sauce trickled down his chin and they both snort.

"Clumsy- ", she handed him a napkin just as kookie waltz in. His sleepy mood running out the door when he saw the two alone. "Oh hey kook", she greet and the smile fell from taehyungs face. "Hey baby", he walked up to her , giving her lips a quick peck. Taehyung paced to the sink to wash his messy fingers. "Smells like salmon", he flashed his bunny smile. "Great sense of smell", she tapped his nose , gesturing to the casserole. "I didn't think you guys would want to prepare a grand supper so I thought I'd make something small. Incase you all got hungry at some point -", jungkook fluffed up her hair before grabbing a piece to taste. "I gotta say , the smell is enough to satisfy my greed-", he chuckled. Taehyung rolled his eyes and head for the exit.
